New Transformers toys are coming out for the Transformers: Age of Extinction release with a new addition- they can transform quickly with a simple snap of the wrist. "Smash and Change" Transformers provide instant gratification. Hasbro executives wanted the toys to match the slick, fast transformations from the movies, as well as give the toys a fresh new makeover for the line's 30th anniversary. Some are annoyed with the change, calling it lazy and too far of a stray from the original fun the complicated transformations kids had to complete on their own in all past Transformers toys brought. What do you think?

Kim Horcher, Tim Frisch, and special guest Matthew Mercer (Voice Actor/ Filmmaker) discuss what they think of the changes!
