First off, why not make it. Second the Transformers has never been out of popularity. After G1 ended they still showed re-runs in the 90's. Then there was Best Wars and Beast Mechnines in the late 90's. After that and into present there is the anime Transformers which is mainly for the youth of today. So Transformers is still and fairly popular media, I still see new toys coming out all the time at Wal Mart and last year they started re-releaseing the G1 toys! So I'd say that Transformers has very good longviety.

But I agree, it will mainly appleal to the mid-twenties fanboys and girls.
