The appeal of super robot to me is the robot gets new power up combinations through out the series.

easy explanation for that is that Car robots was a 100% Japanese production where as Armada was co designed with Hasbro din initial designs that Takara refined. But were still beholen to American sensibilities.
The only American influence on Car Robots was the Destrongers using the US codesigned Transmetal 2 aesthetic and likely Black Convoy/ Spychangers since they were originally made for toys intended for the US market.

new skybound incoming and I want to know their real thoughts

I remember it being a plot in IDW that was outright ignored. Their blood was both a drug and sustenance for each other. Drift was an addict to it and whored out to keep getting it. And as Starscream lead the decepticons, they started cannibalizing because they had no energon. But neither of these were touched on like they mattered. They were just a thing that happened and then never got brought up ever again

The only cannibal I think that had any presence was Sunder who ate memories but that's more eldritch than body part

>>23745158
This is kinda differents since Megatron is outright eating the spark of Trailbreaker, as in his essence.
Since the spark is both an heart and a soul, Megatron is doing some pagan ritual here.

Hmm? I'd say the Ginrai arc should delve into the existence of the Thirteen Primes. New Legends is doing their own take on the Thirteen by painting them as evil while Unicron is trying to redeem himself. But if I want to treat the Thirteen truer to the JG1 text, it will come with massive retcons to lots of places (Planet Master will instead be Caminus, where Solus Prime made all of her inventions, and include Master-Braces as among her prized inventions, and the Apex Armor as unfinished tech the Pretenders have to complete).

The best way to handle Hotrod would be to have him part of the cast from the beginning. For all the criticism of Beast Machines, Cheetor's arc wasn't one of them.

We've had multiple, though most are only partial seekers.
- In a What-If comic issue, Starscream gets upgraded by Unicron instead of Megatron, gaining a new combiner body that can combine with Dirge, Thrust, Astrotrain, and Soundwave.
- In the IDW1 comics, humans mass-produce combining Thrust/Ramjet clones.
- Also the IDW1 comics, Acid Storm is briefly forced to be a combiner limb with a bunch of other random choices.

Toywise, you can ALMOST have a combiner that is all Starscreams: Power of the Primes body, plus ghost, SG, and Golden Lagoon limbs. If you want to stretch the definition, you can throw in limb Thrust, but it's Armada Thrust and not G1 Thrust.

Is the Thirteen Primes a biblical reference?
I'm a casual fan getting into TF lore and the Thirteen reminds me of the Antediluvians from Vampire: The Masquerade lore, who are also thirteen ancient beings who all modern vampires descend from. They have to both be referencing/inspired by something right?

And yes, that's literally what's happening. Galvatron's using a knockoff Enigma of Combination to force random Transformers to combine and fight for him. These comics were released around time that the Combiner Wars toys were on shelves, which used the classic Scramble City-style "just slap whatever limb-bots you have on there" method of making a combiner.

Just a heads up, you may encounter some discussion about the 13 being "multiversal singularities", supposing to be the same characters, or having the same roster, in every version of Transformers stories. This was a fumbled concept by Hasbro and was later outright retconned. Different Transformers stories can have different 13s with different lores, or even no 13s at all. Same goes for Primus and Unicron.
When going about lore, always remember the golden rule of Transformers: It Depends On The Universe.

Cannibal Megatron comes from the live-action movie version
>Early script drafts and a children's picture book featured Megatron consuming the sparks of his fallen foes, but this didn't make it into the final film due to time constraints. The novelization of the movie, on the other hand, sees him chow down on Jazz in the final battle; similarly, although not outright stated in dialogue, his animalistic pouncing on the fallen bodies of various characters (including Optimus Prime, Starscream, Jazz and the Decepticon Create-A-Bot) in the Movie Nintendo DS games, following by what appears to be rooting around in their innards, seems to suggest he's doing the same there.

I really like how TFA actually embraced Decepticons being bigger than Autobots due to their flight based alt mode. I feel like they kinda exaggerated it by giving the bots lands only alt mode however: they should get something like acrobatic planes or journalist helicopter for flying autobot alt modes.

There is a anon who is trying to meme Dakar Truck Rodimus into reality, but I feel like a Dekotora fits him more.
Dakar Truck should be for Cliffjumperimus Prime

The Jet Twins despite being young adult written, are massive next to the autobots. They read like 15 year old fanboys of Sentinel but are taller than Jazz.

Honestly wish the series could come back in an official capacity. The comics are written by the writer, but still not official.

is it me or are captchas getting worse to solve with bullshit puzzle solving

Interesting how they could have built a new generation of autobots that are bigger and stronger than average to match the decepticons but Ultra Magnus thought that realocating their resources into creating Omega Supreme was a better idea. I guess he realized that having an entire military caste that has jack shit to do after the war is over would just backfire again.

I'm the world building target audience. Over the age of the series but always reading into development ideas. Animated by far has the best 'world' for how well thought out it is despite being the second shortest series. I would collect Allspark Almanacs if they continued making them just because they're so full of details that explain their government and ultimately, Ultra Magnus. Who I really wish got more play as a character because all of the older generations of bots seem to be the kind of 'good guys' you'd find in a Metal Gear game.

So help me, Rodimus Prime's altmode finally makes sense! And it DISGUSTS me that it does!

Why did all G1 leaders had trailers-turrets? Even the jet fighter guy got one.

>The comics are written by the writer, but still not official.
That depends on which comics you're talking about. There are official Animated comics and other written media, some of which take place after the TV series. And they're good.

I meant the ones that came out very recently. Bumblebee Prime and the Toymaker.

>>23803326
Hey, I have an idea. How about that Keyan fellow makes an unofficial continuation of Animated via comic, not just these random one-shots and that upcoming SG mini seires?

For Christ's sake, he has connections to the original crew, so what's stopping him from doing that?

hasbro

Everyone else might not care but Hasbro will magically become active when it comes to anything making money that they don't want. If he were to actually attempt a S5, hasbro might get more active about it, in stopping him.

I look forward to more SG since it was planned for the show but never came out. As bad as Fionna and Cake is, I do like that Adventure Time was allowed to continue for an older audience while keeping everything that was in the original series. Hasbro keeps rebooting and restarting G1 when a solid continuation of any continuity would be great. Bay movie novels, Animated comics, Rescue Bots anything.

The Aligned novels were a bit shoddy at times but I think books are a great format because they aren't bound by censorship or weekly-monthly schedules.

A daring synthesis.

What Optimus was a tripleformer than turn into a truck AND a monkey?

Minor nitpick that may not get an answer, but why was Beast Wars allowed to show guns that very clearly fire bullets (Rhinox's chainguns) rather than generic blobs of plasma or lasers?

>>23815728
why not

>>23815728
Syndicated so no single network rules to abide by. If a network didn’t like it, they simply did not have to buy it

>>23815728
>allowed
because... it wasn't disallowed?
what mindset are you working with here

>>23815728
Hmm as a '90s kid I understand where you are coming from because guns are hella bad and we need to put orange caps on them.

But you know the networks didn't have to show that episode just like they didn't have to show the Voltorb pokémon episode.

Well didn't make a pewpew sound or a gunshot sound? That is pretty shocking to see in the '90s because we were so anti-gun after Columbine and is the cop that shot the kid with the toy gun.

However it is a Canadian show so that might have meant something, different mentality up there without all the Christian fundamentalists.

reboot went super edgy and weird in the later seasons, I remember the MC's fishgirlfriend straight up kills a villain by shooting her nails into the villain's neck\throat

not like there was blood or anything, but still kinda odd to specifically allow killing like that

how much blood are you expecting from nails in the neck

>>23816429
until you posted the webm and corrected my 28 year old memories about there even being any blood at all, I was expecting none at all for a kids TV show that aired at like 5:30pm

Buddy do I have news for you about Beast Wars

>>23816932
There is some canadian-french modeler out there who modeled Dino Dirk and got away with it, likely also making scaley sfm porn or taking robot sex commissions on the side.

Beast Wars was so horny and I kind of wish they kept that energy for future projects. They made Black Arachnia a constantly horny lesbian for Netflix but forgot to also make everyone else want to fuck each other all the time.

Mainframe Entertainment is based in Vancouver, British Columbia. Other side of the country from the French area. Dirk Dinobot was just the regular Dinobot model with the crotch bone detail moved around.

Even if I wasn't, this is basic information about the studio's location and geography in general. Frenchies settled on the east side, just like in the States. France is east of North America.
