Yep definitely agree, I started collecting just prior to the announcement of the first Bayformers movie but aside from a couple of generations figures there wasn't a lot around that appealed to me. Of course once the movie was announced and the screenshots and shorts were released I was completely captivated!

I remembered collecting the figures as a child and watching the series on tv and it brought back all those memories, but better still it really peaked my interest. The more "organic" feel to the Baybots really appealed to me and I've really enjoyed the subsequent toyline.

Since then I've started collecting various paraphanalia from various lines and have gotten into most of the takes on the franchise since. I think each take has its own individual appeal and as a fan I am not necessarily partial to one over another, I can appreciate each interpretation of the story for what it is.

So whoever directs TF4 (if indeed they make a TF4), I'm not too fussed about as long as they create something the fans and others will enjoy.
