Call me dumb, but what are these?

Welcome to the General Discussion area where just about anything goes! This area is designed to discuss all matters and does not necessarily have to be Transformers related. Please keep topics relevant.

Call me dumb, but what are these?

Postby Nemesis_Apoc » Sat Feb 10, 2007 5:43 pm

Okay, I've been seeing these symbols since I joined this site, and I still don't know what the hell they are:

What's the difference between :BOT: and :GOBOT: and :WRECK: and what is this :123TF: and this :HUNTER: ?

Thanks in advance, bots.

he didn't say he didn't know what that meant. He said he didn't know the difference between it and the G2 version.

I've thought of a fun new answer to give, to the inevitable "What's transtech?" question.

"We don't know. Nobody does. Nobody whatsoever knows what/who/where/why/how transtech is. It's a mystery. Even if I did know I wouldn't tell. Which I do and I won't."

You could always show them movie Megatron... That Aaron Archer never gave up on his concept.

TransTech was supposed to be the follow-up to Beast Machines. The old G1 Autobot and Decepticon characters would mix it up with the Maximals and Predacons, and continue the wars on Cybertron with the original Optimus Prime and Megatron as leaders of each side. But in totally new (and weirder) bodies.

But the idea got cancelled in favor of continueing the old original G1 cartoon, with all new headmasters, targetmasters and so on! :D

Then someone got the bright idea to turn that into Armada. :sad:
