So in the future, when the movies aren't making money and Hasbro decides to stop making Transformers we can blame you! :-$

As long as it outperformed harry porker I don't care. is it just me or do the Chinese seem to be latching onto the Transformers franchise much more than other parts of the world? I mean, we've seen all the scluptures over there lately, the movie debuts huge...seems like China is gaga over Cybertronians...
