Starscream, Megs, Prime, and others gave up their ability to Transform so they could drive cars, tanks, motorcycles, jets, etc...; It was one of the stupidest and most poorly explained gimmicks of all time.
The excuse:
Prime: "Who will join me? Who will give up their ability to transform to become better, faster, more alive?"
Jazz: "I will!
Other Autobot: "Me too!"
Then, of course, the 'Cons stupidly steal the tech.
You explain perfectly. Thanks. It made me laugh.
actualy there was more to it then that. the commercials said just as what was quoted, but the figs themselves came with another story.
energon dried up, and the tf were gonna die if they didnt find a new energy source, and prime found one, but to use it, they needed a new power convertner, and to build one they had to sac thier transformation engine.
so action masters had no choice but to be retarded g i joe wannabes.
