As for the last idea, we did see glimpses of that in beast machines and IDW All Hail Megatron. Though in that last example, things weren't going to be great for some cons as megs wanted to start to build his ideal society which meant getting rid of some loose cannons on his side.

Victory used this approach in places, most notably with the Breastforce/Liokaiser by focusing on one member of the team at a time.Combat Zero wrote:Why not have a TF series that follows a monster-of-the-week formula(as with Yuusha and other super robot series)? It get’s really repetitive seeing the same old(sometimes new but still the same) guys fighting over each other every episode and usually for similar, albeit slightly different, reasons: Good guys stops the bad guys from something, same old characters over again, sometimes slightly different, rinse and repeat.
Why not have the Decepticons create a giant monster out of Earth’s resources keeping the Autobots distracted while formulating an evil plain in each episode and have the good guys find someways to defeat it(example: create new Autobots that combines and defeats it using a finisher. Upgrades and newer combinations)? It works for Yuusha and Sentai, surely it should work for TF, especially since it’s main purpose from the beginning was to sell toys.
