Transformers: Animated series news/discussion

[Rocker22]

Good ending.

Are the comics continuing the story?

[CBGB]

I really hope they continue the story in one way or another. I would personally like a direct to DVD movie, just to tie up the loose ends of Endgame.

So, now that TFA is, as far as we know, over. What are your thoughts on it as a whole? What do you give the entire series out of 10?

I give it a 9/10. It was definitely one of the best Transformers series since Beast Wars. Though it did have it's fair share of poorly written and filler episodes, the good ones totally redeemed them. Good memories, I'm sad it's gone.

I loved it. One of the best series in ALONG time.
Some episodes did suck, but most of them rocked.
It felt closer to the G1 series then anything else.
Great characters, great story and the toyline was
fantastic.

[DemonicFoil]

Agreed, but so many questions left unanswered though, I wonder if the story will continue but in a whole new anime style.

Well, there is some good news at least - according to the Hasbro panel at Botcon '09 - http://www.tformers.com/transformers...1669/news.html - the toy line's not quite dead just yet:
