I kind of wish I had gotten into Transformers as a franchise years earlier, if only to experience what the roots for fic/art trends were and what they shifted to, the derision fans of previous generations have towards the new ones, and just be able to talk about shows and comics from way back as they happened.

There is a definite advantage in having 30+ years of a continuity backlog to consume at my own pace (rather than waiting weekly, monthly, etc.), though I have a problem where I actually end up smashing it all into my face in as few gos as possible, but you end up missing out on the meta experience of being a fan in that moment anything becomes canon. I'm keeping up with the current IDW runs and RiD2015, so I'm not entirely out of a fandom loop. And there's definitely fans whose only source material is a single cartoon, or maybe only interested in the More Than Meets the Eye comic, but for myself I absolutely want to know every different lore out there.
