Optimus Prime (supposedly now a fire truck) and Megatron will be featured in the new series, which reportedly features a brand new look for the long-lived Transformers characters.

"We've used the basic Transformers and characters as a springboard, but then we're pretty much reimagining the whole thing," said Bob Higgins, senior vp programming and development at Cartoon Network. "What we're doing with it is basically turning it into a superheroes story. We're really excited that we're able to take this decades-old property and hopefully turn it into something that kids haven't seen or expected from a Transformers series before."

I never thought the new FF cartoon was all that bad. I mean it wasn't ideal, but they were nowhere NEAR as fugly as this shit. I mean this has to be one of the stupidest redesigns I have ever seen.

When someone mentions Optimus Prime, what do you think of? A tractor-trailer. That's all I'm saying.

But you're fine with a gorilla?
