The funny thing is that Bumblebee was a VW Beetle originally. Since the first Transformers movie was basically a paid ad for GM, I guess that wasn't going to fly.
Well, let's be honest here, Transformers was never anything other than a marketing vehicle. (pun intended)

I thought the original Transformers cartoons were only created to sell more toys. Brilliant move by someone at the time.

Only the movies? In the US market, the original cartoon was also a vehicle for selling toys... so the whole franchise has always been that way.

Good point. I didn't have any, so I just didn't think about it that way.
