Either they aren't featuring Gen1 at all, or they are wasting the opportunity to use it to create hype in the fandom who could already be talking about how BotCon 2014 will be a Gen1 commemoration/celebration.
It's part of the FunPub hype Machine! they always save the best news till last, the anticipation of what they haven't told us yet is even more exciting than knowing what's going to happen!! (that was my sarcastic voice)

Pirates could be good if handled carefully, I totally gt your "populist" comment. realistically they are a few years behind the 8 ball with that though.
