Animals and robots don't mix. What crap. At least they finally figured out transformers were cool because they were robots and cars and vehicles, both of which little boys think are cool. And yes, the toy companies are out of ideas mainly because the cartoon industry is putting out utter crap. Only the japanese still make cartoons with some collector appeal, but they over do it (kind of funny pokemon put the whole collector think into the plot--must collect them all!). As for me, I'll stick to my memories of transformers and voltron.
