So you grew up on Beast Wars?

.....I loved that series XD

Anyway, they had to do something to make transformers look more....real. Michael Bay made them actually WORK, in that every part of the machine/vehicle they turn into is visible on them in their normal robot form. There is no mass changes like in the old series (See: Megatron turning into a handgun that Starscream would then hold....).
