The Energon Pub

News Credits: 2 · by **paul053** » Tue Oct 26, 2010 11:02 am

Since my son is about the age (3) and me and my wife are trying to get him learning the alphabets, we thought of a way to encourage him to study these letters so he won't always use "I'm sleepy" or "I want go potty" sort of excuses to get away. So I made this Transformers A to Z card to hope he will have some interests. Here is the run down list and downloadable file if you are interesting in looking at it.

A - Autobot
B - Bumblebee
C - Cliffjumper
D - Decepticon
E - Energon (don't think we have much other choices)
F - Frenzy
G - Grimlock
H - Huffer (I use PCC Huffer as the picture because that's the one he has)
I - Ironhide (strangely I thought Iacon first)
J - Jazz
K - Kup
L - Lugnut
M - Megatron
N - Nightbeat
O - Optimus Prime
P - Prowl
Q - Quickmix (any other better one?)
R - Ratchet
S - Starscream (a lot of choices here)
T - Thundercracker (his name is a little too long)
U - Unicron
V - Vortex
W - Wheeljack
X - X-Brawn (don't really like this one but I think no other choice)
Y - Yoketron (how about Yello Giraffe?)
Z - Zeta Prime

That's pretty cool man. I learned my ABCs from Dinosaur names, but now i wish it had been Transformers. Your son has a great dad.

What a fantastic concept, my boy is 2 at the moment and already loves TF's, so I probably do something similar when he's old enough.

I got a few suggestions for the letters you're sure about or don't like.

How about...

E- Eject
Q- Quake or Quintesson
T- Tracks or Thrust
X- X-Gunner (I got that one from the galleries on here, and its the only other X-Transformer)
Z- Zigzag

Hope that helps

E - Erector?

X - Xaaron, although his full name was Emirate Xaaron and I think the X is supposed to be pronounced like a Z.

Just noticed the link was broken. It is fixed now and you can download the file to see the card.

@MightyMagnus78, Ejector? LOL! you mean the toaster?

I know Q is easily go by Quintesson, but my son doesn't like them much from the movie, nor does the season 3. Yeah, Quake is a good one. Seems like not many people like Quickmix.

There are few options for T but after thinking for a while, I think should look for one that pronounce like T. So Thundercracker, Tracks, Thrust, etc do not sound right. Maybe I should use Terrorcon, Terradive, or Teletraan I instead. Thanks for the input.
