Yeah, 3D movies going 2D for subsequent adaptations/series is not unheard of, and frees up resources that can go to design and writing. It's succeeded more often than not.
I'm just hoping it gets a robust toyline that's more than the kid mainline style we've gotten for the last few years where it's all one-steps and gimmicky sublines and some token Warrior class molds of four characters. (Er, aka the One movie toyline as it is... Drat.) It would be frustrating to never see, or only see in trickles over years, a lot of these great designs. And I don't want this to take over Studio Series either, although it makes sense for it to step up as one of the line's running sources.
