Does that mean other characters, such as Prowl, Bluestreak and Smokescreen, or Sideswipe and Red Alert have the same alt modes on Cybertron? In the G1 Cartoon, I mean. What do you all think?

If this had ever been explored in the cartoon they probably would have done, if only because it would have been cheaper to reuse the animation models than create a new one for each character. Fortunately we now have Don's awesome War Within designs where there are variations between the Cybertronian forms of the Seekers and the (later) Datsunbots.

For what it's worth, I agree.

The robot modes were always the same. The Alt modes were different in the first episode. The seeksers looked like retarded flying triangles.

Because they're both very alien and very techno at the same time. And they kind of look like something out of an old Japanese alien monster movie.

I agree

I do think that Tfs who had the same alt mode would look relatively the same on Cybertron, but they would have slight variations in how they transformed though.
