    I grew up with G1 Chromedome and Rewind among my Transformers, Chromie in particular was a favorite of mine at the time. I thought it was strange that Chromedome (and the other Headmasters) was essentially a decapitated robot, but I really enjoyed the "driver" element and that was often a central part of my play with him. When IDW went the direction with him and Rewind, I wasn't quite sure what to think about that at first and it felt a little awkward. But the writing quickly won me over, and their reunion near the end is one of the few times that comic books brought tears to my eye. Today, Titans Returns Chromedome and Rewind have never been apart, and I don't care what Blaster thinks.

    Gotta say, in terms of character, I prefer the scholar/scientist from IDW rather than the hot-headed fighter from The Headmasters. Chromedome’s personality from the headmasters his basically the same fiery-tempered fighter-for-justice we’ve seen in a lot of anime, JRPGs, and even other TF shows, it’s a bit too basic. Chromedome’s personality in IDW was much more interesting and tragic, his guilt over changing people’s memories during the war, his relationship with Rewind, it’s a much more compelling character than what Headmasters gave us.

      @jeanettewu2537 3 года назад +3

      Not to mention his name actually makes sense if he's a scientist. Most of the initial Headmasters' names contained puns about heads, and as a result, also referenced academia. Chromedome's name is meant to imply that he's an egghead, a nerd among nerds.

      Agree, the real cybertronian being only the head and the body being a vehicle is much better, not only allows them to save energy without having to become Micromasters but allows them to exchange bodies and as long the head survives they won't be killed. They even have the advantages of the comics Headmasters without their disadvantages.

    From what I've heard on Werezilla's old retrospective on the Headmasters cartoon, Chromedome was like a crap predecessor to Hot Shot from Transformers Armada.
    Brash, overconfident, too eager, and unlike Hot Shot, not taking on the lessons that other bots tried to teach him.
    And I don't like IDW for some of their choices, so I guess I have to go with the G1 cartoon version of Chromedome.
