  • @cobaltprime9467
    @cobaltprime9467 Год назад +14

    I think a cool idea is making Antilla the colony of Nexus Prime. Where Victorion is the sole survivor of Cosmic Rust due to her anti-corrosive metal unique to her as the newest leader descended from Nexus. Holding the Enigma of Combination as she remained alone until Cybertronians arrive and become infected.
    Velocitron the colony of Almagamus who created the races that evolved into the modern era. Whom is the predecessor of Override, but only in terms of succession through the fastest.
    And with Legacy having the Speedia 500 collection, I’d have Decepticon Scourge be a local evil mafia leader who covets the position. With his own Decepticons and even turncoat Autobots to command. Often uniting forces with Motormaster and the Stunticons.
    Aquatron the colony of Quintus Prime. From which we get the Quintessons who overthrew him and sought to conquer his homeworld. Creating lifeless drones. With a few exceptions. Gnaw, who led the Sharkticons. An Allicon with a new name who led the others. And a normal sized Scorpinok (maybe Titan sized idk) who leads them all.
    Eukaris the Jungle Planet of Onyx Prime. But mechanical animals not techno-organic like Maximals and Predacons. Though the original Predacons and Terrorcons could originate from here. The current leader is Scourge (possibly renamed to Scorch?) who holds the deactivated Tryptic Mask of Onyx. A symbol of the strongest will rule status.
    Gigantion: The resting place of Titans who fulfilled their duties. Whose residents are all giants that continually build their world. Some are even Titans that took on smaller forms. Perhaps Metroplex eventually does the same. Though I would rename their leader and only cast him in the image of the Cybertron cartoon.
    Junkion: A Mad Max style world of junk. Debris had collected over millions of years around the dead Titan of Megatronus. The Requiem Blaster lay at the core in an endless labyrinth only one with another relic could traverse. The Matrix, Enigma, even the Mask. Megatronus himself would only discover this disgraced world of his eons later, as he sought his old weapon to destroy the returning Unicron himself. With the goal to conquer Cybertron afterwards.
    Botropolos: A space-traveling city originally built by Prima with his Titan. His descendants, the Knights of Cybertron would reactivate it and leave their world to go explore the stars. Combining old or dead Titans along the way.
    And Caminus: Built by Solus Prime before her death. Currently led by her successor the Mistress of Flame. Where City Speaking originated. A gift that would be added to their local Well of All Sparks so it could be given to members of other colonies.
    A theocratic matriarchy that worships the Primes who had not fallen from grace. It is home to only female transformers. There are cases where a male is born but they are quick to leave for other worlds.
    Nebulon/Nebulos: World of the Headmasters. A project undergone by Nexus, Micronus, Amalgamous, and Alchemist. They created an adapted race of transformers that could use the strange energy of the planet. Resulting in Minicons that would combine with larger bodies. Some of those larger bots having minds and sparks of their own.
    The Master Transformers were born from this experiment. Headmasters who combine as heads for their larger Transtectors. Partnered Targetmasters of a blaster and larger bot. Battlemasters who took on melee weapons and worked similarly as the Targetmasters.
    Finally Micron: Home of Micromasters. Micronus’s colony of only Minicons. These Minicons underwent evolution to become more than mini-transformers. The difference is subtle, but Micromasters can combine with each other or simply be more fuel efficient than a normal Minicon or even Nebulon Headmasters.

    In the slim chance Transformers ever gets added to SRW, my series pick would be Galaxy Force so we can have a 'planet hop' plot again and replace the planets w/ those from other series that matches the planet's theme (i.e., replace Animatros w/ Planet Zi from Zoids)

      that would be interesting though that would exponentially expand the transformers multiverse, imagine if that same SRW had some brave series in it since I wonder how cybertronians would think of artificial robots which could be seen as almost identical to them, cognitive ability, transformation, even what could essentially be a spark... though that also makes me wonder what if something like transformers animated allspark repaired them since repaired machines always seemed to become transformers, would they go through a pinochio "am I a real boy" sort of thing or just be repaired

    The Junkions are actually the first attempt by Lunarcron, son of Unicron, to create Cybertronian-like life.

This is how the Weird Al Yankovic hit, "Dare to be Stupid", became their planetary anthem.

      I admit, I do not know literally all lore about TF, so I also did an extensive google search and found zero results related to a Transformers character. If it ain't on TFWiki, it's probably not part of the lore. I did find some twitter account named that, is that where you got the idea from?

    I understood it as the Space Bridge Network that was attempted to be built in the prehistory of the Unicron Trilogy somewhat worked (hence why characters can use very advanced versions of Space Bridges.) but it was either incomplete or something made Cybertron lose contact with the colony worlds.
    Also it was explained explicitly that the Cyber Keys actually adapted the Colonists to their world. It’s the first time I heard they planned to completely cyberform the Colony planets, but seemingly did Cyberform some parts of them.

    Anyway, I'm writing this message because I wish to pitch a project I want to do, with your permission of course.

    The Transformers "Ultimate timeline" I made up for my main toy collection (which I really should write down) includes the colonies. Namely Caminus and Velocitron for characters like Windblade or Override, but I expanded the colonist roster to include things like Battletrap being from Devisun. Meanwhile the headmasters are complicated, as I have three stages of headmaster tech: the Master(switching to Dominus as that sounds better) that use transtector bodies, nebulonian binary bonded headmasters, and humans bonded to transtectors.
    I'm also flip flopping on making beast era characters colonists or time travelers.

  • @fishpop

    If Fall Of Cybertron had gotten the sequel its ending left the opening for; i would've liked a moderate reprise of Cybertron's colony plot. The Exiles novel kinda did this.
    I replayed the game recently and the bit at the end of Grimlock's second level has something launched from the spacebridge tower hit the portal in orbit which makes it go weird. My theory is the object was Grimlock getting warped somewhere, possibly the beast planet as it feels he'd fit in there. Plus having Grimlock have a boss fight with Scourge would've been cool. Could've been like the Optimus/Megatron fight at FOC's end.
    Speaking of the main cast; the spacebridge was originally set for Earth but after going weird it could possibly have shunted the Bots & Cons somewhere else, possibly Velocitron.
    Another possibility could've been they land on prehistoric Earth to do a G1 version of Beast Wars.

    I have a bunch of different ideas for the colonies. For starters, different transformers continuities have very distinct body types, the traditional, boxy bodies (like in G1 and the Unicron trilogy) and the sleeker humanoid bodies (like in animated or the aligned cartoons). What's say that Cybertronians and a select few planets had the blocky bodies, while other planets like Caminus had the humanoid designs. Also, the colonies could resemble different cultures in our real life world.
    Cybertron was America
    Caminus was Eastern Asia
    Eukaris was Africa
    Velocitron was Australia
    Etc.
