Was this ever talked about?

And how did BW Megatron get the disc?

Or do i just chalk that up to another "just be quiet and enjoy the cartoons!!"?


If im not mistaken Ravage in BW explanes it. From the way it was stated Megatron did it after he woke up. It was in case the Decepticons lost the war. I have the feeling that Soundwave found out about the disc and Megatron had Skywarp fly him to it so he could inscribe the message on the disc. If im not mistaken the voyager was still in our solar system when the Transformers woke up.


In the flashback that explains this, you see Megatron in space as he is inscribing the message on the disk. So it was done after it was launched. As seen several times in the second season, the Decepticons were through space several times. Not to mention they had Astrotrain as well.

Edit: Sorry, Insurgent, didn't see you're post there. Didn't mean to steal your thunder. :)

Would that be like National Talk Like a Pirate Day, only with Grimlock instead of Pirates? If so, I'm in like Flynn. I'd love to wander through a work day talking like Grimlock.

I'm dealing with that in a Beast Wars prequel fanfic...

:-?
He's got some pretty far-out powers to go along with them, too, including teleportation, the projection of trippy telepathic visions and illusions, and the ability to groove on the language of 98% of all known species. To uses his powers to the fullest, though, he's gotta be feelin' good vibrations; bad karma can seriously harsh his mellow, y'know?

It doesn't have to be 1984 ..remember Megatron is still Megatron up until 2005

So in that period of time using the spacebridges ,Cybertron bought into the Earths Solar System and spacetraveling they had to come across it
