Sadly, it wouldn't be an article about Orenstein without some severe misreporting about his exact contribution to the Transformers brand. Even though his actual life was already fascinating enough even without Transformers.

Though his contributions weren't as grand as the media made them out to be, he's still a pivotal figure in this franchise. And for that I'm thankful.
Dude also survived the Holocaust and then went onto have one of the fullest lives possible.
RIP

He helped transform our world, and our lives.
