I'm just slightly older than you so I was a "big kid" during the time.

Pokemania had run its course for us, and it was in that phase of being considered "for babies". Equating Armada to Pokemon was like a dual edged thing, it was making fun of the series going to kiddy anime as well as the Minicon thing obviously tapping into those trends

You will find similar comparisons for RiD2015, which likewise was a more "anime tinged", lighthearted show that came after the more Western and more serious TFP, many people immediately dismissed it because of the shonen/sentai esque monster of the week formula, and just feeling more lighthearted and kid appeal in general

Armada also turned off a lot of people just because of the toys, and as someone who tapped out, but since gone back to appreciate a lot of the toys in the Energon and Cybertron lines, I still really dislike Armada's figures......yes the "playskool" colors and over reliance on gimmicks is a fault, but for me the designs were just really ass a lot of the time. Little things like Cyclonus having Curly Joes face, guns on his knees of all places with like odd proportions, Demolishor having gun turrets for fingers, idk, I give credit for doing different things but those things still turn me off
