Post your designs and bios in this thread and e-mail them to me at: emporer_paul@yahoo.com
You MUST have a bio to go along with your design. Here is the basic story:

On a planet in a far away solar system from earth on a planet called Cybertron live sentient robots called Transformers. They once lived in peace but the evil Decepticons, lead by Megatron rebelled and took over the planet. They now rule but there is a small rebellion know has the Autobots lead by Optimus Prime former leader of the planet who are fighting the Decepticons for freedom. Optimus Prime now has the upper hand in the war do to the fact that he found a mysterious cybertronian artifact known has the Matrix. But the finding of the Matrix has awoken an even greater threat than the Decepticons known has Unicron and his heralds The Fallen, The Quintison, and the Sharkticons.


This is a completly Cybertron based series with NO earth interaction so NO humans. Please send in your designs and bios in hope of creating the first completly fan made TF series accepted by Hasbro. Thank you for your support.

anyone?

What's the overall tone of the series? Are you looking for something dark like Beast Machines, jovial like Animated, ecetra?

What about design asthetics, flatpanels, bayformers, ecetra?

What versions of the characters are you basing the cast list on? Skids in G1 is scatter brained philosopher and Mudflap in Cybertron is discontented with the Autobot cause, whereas in the movie they're bumbling, (cussing,) idiots. Megatron has been a Weasel, a Sellout, a Tyrant, a Zealot, a Megalomaniac, a Lunatic, a Manipulator, and a Puppet. Are you looking for new takes on classic characters, such as a loyal Starcream?

How are you going to approach 'greater evils'? Used very sparingly, a common enemy, or an unstable three-way conflict?

I am probably going a little over board with the nit picking questions, but even if you're just looking for Bios and Designs, it helps to have a better idea of what's going on in the 'verse.

In anycase, here's a brief bio

Cliffjumper
Ground Combat Tactician
Cliffjumper was pulled from the front lines for two reasons: his exceptional knowledge of ground warfare and his inability to work well with others. At Autobot Headquarters his strategies have led to several decisive victories over the Decepticons, including the liberation of Crystal City. Though respected by fellow tacticians, Cliffjumper's surly mannerisms can lead to confrontations in planning sessions. Perhaps worse than his attitude is his extreme anti-Decepticon sentiments which tend to unnerve even the most hateful of his colleagues. For Cliffjumper, the war has become personel, and he will allow no surrender or comprimise from the Decepticons, not even if Megatron himself were begging.

Good character bio for cliffjumper and has for the rest of the characters I'm looking for personalitys like the original character exept Megatron who I want BW/BM personallity and The twins who I want to be stupid but not totally inapropriate like in ROTF. And I'm looking for a mix of flat panel and bayformer design so lets see what you awesome artist can come up with?

And I want greater evils such as Unicron who will reveal themselves later in the series to be manipulitive trying to control the battle and make it the way they want/need it.
