Re: Expectations on new Transformers comic.
Possibly before his semi-departure Ryall misplaced Chris Cocks' cocaine spoon. Any speculation is just that, speculation, and there are unlikely to be reveals about the situation for business reasons. A post-Rebirth story line probably has some mileage, particularly if it resurfaced popular high-re...

If they killed Optimus today and not the 80s how would it likely be received ?

How come they had Megatron in the "Uncron trilogy" become Galvatron and in the next series had him back as Megatron?
Why did they do this and why was the Japan version's done differently?

Re: What the chances of us getting spin off's of WFC prequel, of the Beast wars and of the timeline Galvatron and Nemesi
As far as the toy line was concerned, both. Transformers doesn't really do scale. Netflix... the same really, whatever was convenient. Did not Primal mean they had been fighting the Predacons for cycles ? Cycles does not always mean the same amount of time in the same continuity so was it meant to ...

Re: How could Rise of the beast's affected the comics when they start?
If the movie does very, very well rather than being yet another placeholder instalment to keep the Transformers brand on-screen. Fundamentally BW doesn't really have the same wide appeal as other parts of the franchise, which is why it's a BW+G1 inspired thing rather than just BW. Is not Beast Wars...

Would they have wanted Beast Machines to be the future of their G1?

Re: How could Rise of the beast's affected the comics when they start?
Hasbro isn't a monolithic organisation (as amply demonstrated with the D&D OGL fiasco). A new publisher is likely to have their own ideas and intended direction. If anything, IDW having the licence for seventeen years or so gives another publisher the opportunity to look back over a large body ...

Re: Was there ever going to be a Third Transformers shattered glass mini-series?
Not much, and it won't be a big seller. Wouldn't be surprised if warehouses of them end up heavily remaindered like all of the stuff offered to Game and other discount stockists. What's interesting is that SG is a go-to source of redeco releases these days, even when there's options such as G2 Dino...

Re: How could Rise of the beast's affected the comics when they start?
Infiltration (but following that there was a bleed-out of readers frustrated with the slow pace of Escalation), Stormbringer, the initial BW: The Gathering mini. All Hail Megatron failed to halt falling sales. MTMTE was critically quite acclaimed but by most accounts did better as trades and digita...

Re: Was there ever going to be a Third Transformers shattered glass mini-series?
Wouldn't be sure there was any overarching plan to the last few years of IDW titles at all. They left hardback collections unfinished, series such as the Classics UK reprints got cancelled, and they failed to keep a lot of their trades in print. And that's just catalogue material. You've got to ass...

Re: How could Rise of the beast's affected the comics when they start?
Assuming the IDW contract is basically the same as the DW contract, they'd have the option to. It seems to be standard operating practice for the new comics publisher to have reprint/reuse rights to previous TF comics. Could Hasbro be made to want to continue the IDW Beast wars story/reboot with th...

Re: What the chances of us getting spin off's of WFC prequel, of the Beast wars and of the timeline Galvatron and Nemesi
Novels hardly ever happen. Even less likely is getting a novel or short story collection that gives us deliberately alt-universe things like Paddles the Dinobot although the quality of the Ciencin/Cian books does confirm that when there's a lot going on with franchise sub-licensing that Hasbro is h...

Re: Why is Lio convoy popular and what about Big convoy?
Probably has greater recognition -- more Western toy releases that could be considered him (including mainstream retail releases) and there was the small Robotmaster too that was quite readily available for import. The Big Convoy figure is liked in the fandom, but that's inherently niche interest. ...

Re: How could Rise of the beast's affected the comics when they start?
They're more likely to want an additional title that specifically ties into the film, and it'll be subject to deals and approvals with the film companies. BW, RiD and UT characters are commonly used to pad out casts in comics, which has been flogged if not to death then pretty hard by modern comics...
