2009 Hasbro: OR, what they'd really say:

The current theory is because the Supreme class Roll Out Command Optimus Prime toy sold so poorly that Hasbro didn't want to risk the failure of another large-sized Animated toy.

I always had to do it manually because the gimmick never worked on mine. It tried auto-transforming maybe once, with the internal gears sounding off, but no movement of the trailer parts actually happened. It was a janky idea and a janky execution from start to finish.

Here's another one I don't really like transforming that much: HasLab Unicron. Takes at least 15-20 minutes to convert and it's all just shell-forming around a torso that's just one big functionless chunk. And his robot head can't be stored anywhere in Planet Mode, having to be removed and...

We're in Year 40, now. 😜

Pretty sure Darth_Prime was making a joke about how there was never a toy made, as this seems to be a thread asking about which TF toys had the best spaceship designs.

Sadly, this dismissive attitude toward kids shows was really quite common back then, as children's television in general was looked down upon by the news media as some of the lowest forms of entertainment not worth the time of any mature adult. To give an example, there are recordings on...

But you said Thrilling 30?

Uh... Thrilling 30 Hot Shot?

Sure, but you specified Transformers spaceships. Do Star Wars spaceships count as Transformers spaceships if they're Star Wars spaceships first and foremost?

We'll see, but, I don't think we've heard about a second season being green-lit yet.

Others elsewhere are hoping for the same treatment Buzzworthy Bumblebee Cliffjumper got with all transparent plastic replaced with opaque plastic, complete with solid opaque blue windows.

This is what I mean: The underside of the tail is sagging below the crotch space. In these two pics: On the original toy, that would only happen if the tail wasn't turned upside-down and plugged in properly. When done so, that made sagging impossible and kept the tail's connection to the...

Titans Return Topspin came looooooooong after Combiner Wars.

Looking closely at his tail, it kinda looks like the tail just hangs down sagging behind his waist where the original figure's tail rotated upside-down and plugged into his backside to keep it in place and prevent any and all sag.

In episode 5, did anyone else notice that "Thunder in Your Heart" by John Farnham (which was featured in the 1986 movie "Rad" and which Stan Bush did a cover of back in 2015) was played in the scene where Mobius (as Don) was pretending to ride a jet ski in the store he worked at?

And... Machine Wars Bumblebee:
