Fix your quote.

Cybertron is equal to RID, basically, because--like RID--you had a hell of a lot of everything in it. RID managed to have repaints of 'every' TF toyline up to that point in it--G1, G2, BW, and BM. Cybertron...actually did the same, with its toys. There was Dark Scorpy who was an Energon repaint, and then there were the Armada retools, which means, yeah, it did the same thing. Plus, Cybertron was all about having really awesome toys and lots of unfulfilled potential.

I actually like most of "Cybertron". It did not have the sheer energy of "Armada", but it was still creative enough to hold my interest.

I did indeed enjoy Cybertron, but I felt that new molds were far to simple in transformation and such compared to such series as RID and the forthcoming Classics and Movie lines.

I like my transformations like I like my women--deep, fickle, and impossible to figure out.

Wait...

I like my transformations like I like my women - a challenge at first, but intuitive, and fun to do over and over again.

Sha-wing.

I like my women like I like my Transformers - under $50. ;)

I like my women like I like my Transformers: It can be hard to find the one I want, unless I happen to be in the right place. But then it turns out someone else already beat me to them.

This is because we don't like our women to have surprise pop-out pieces.
