No.
<edit> To expand a bit... Transformers don't have children (or if they do, we've never had any definite evidence of it in the last twenty-odd years).
Can Tfs Have Babies?
Where do the Babies Grow Inside Them?
Do Tfs have Genders?
How do Tfs Reproduce?
Not the titles exactly, but you get the idea. Basically, the threads are interesting, but after a while they have a tendancy to get heated and some members getting temp banned.
I don't know if they can or can't have babies. All I know is that Transformer sex would be extremely loud.

Thank God Tramp's banned, or that comment alone would've led to Tramp's version of the I Have a Dream Speech, only his dream involves Nightbird and Airazor naked.
But in all seriousness, you would've been treated to a wonderful thousand word essay in randomly bolded text about how it's irrelevant that they're robots, and that they're lifeforms, because they'd have to follow the 7 criteria of life, and yadda, yadda, yadda. (Never mind the fact they can't breathe, or the fact that Fire and clouds meet the 7 criteria and aren't lifeforms.) I mean, I personally would think the fact they're robots would be the most important thing, but Tramp's a moron, and if you beat him into a corner to the point he can't argue a point, he'll either edit his post, or ignore the part he can't argue with.
My general main argument was that they're robots. Tramp showed my logic no respect, so I started flaming the arsehole.
OH, and Scaleface, the whole "Wives and kids" thing is generally scorned by fandom. Those manga aren't canon anyways. And those kids are probably built by whoever they were meant to have been built by.
Scaleface wrote:If I can take this in another direction though, what about Technorganic Transformers from Beast Machines? Can they reproduce in an organic manner? What about beings like Savage/Noble? He's 100% organic and sparkless by the end of the series. Could he reproduce if they had a female version of his species available? Was he the "son" of Megatron?

I guess it all depends if some canon writter wants to state they are fully functional... down thereScaleface wrote:The Technorganic trees had seeds, so they reproduced. So I wonder if two technorganic Maximals, perhaps of the same animal species, could reproduce.
Damolisher wrote:Yeah, but the thing is, we're shown HOW Transformers are made, and no transformer ever references being born. The only signs of any "Birth" are, as you said, that manga which was generally a comedy manga with a very questionable effect on canon, and the rest is general fanwank, such as our old annoying buddy Tramp choosing to interpret the presence of females (Which is bloody stupid, IMO, to call evidence, when you're considering how PC everyone is, and females were only added in transformers to avoid lawsuits from pissed off chicks,) and some throwaway line from the More than Obsoletes The Eye, which says something about other means of creation other than the known ones in the G1 universe, which I personally would assume to mean the Oracle, I mean, it IS BW Megatron 'reading' the things in the first place.
