Yeah, the closest we got is the "hunter-class" dinosaur, but we've got a great selection otherwise:

Makes it tempting to run a team of Maximal Dinobots in v2.

Why do you think I'm joining the Maximals?

i havent been here long, but still, I thought that these were meant to be alt-modes, not pokemon. sorry the pic is pretty big. and yes, I am such a sado for knowing these and getting the pics. but oh well, thats me.

Whats so wrong about that? I mean hell, Yu-Gi-Oh, Avatar, Final Fantasy, Digimon, Monster Rancher and Zoids alts are in those lists, too.

Look at it this way: there were only so many Animal TF alts out there, so we had to start pulling from other sources if we wanted the Maximals and Preds to have a decent selection. You don't like the Pokemon alts, don't use 'em. Simple as that.

not too shabby. obviously not 100% as i would have done it with my own team in mind, but there's plenty I can use there. Pred or dead! (heck, I'll probably end up both)

Damn looks like none of my requests were made Just wondering Mkall, if I made my requests earlier, would you have granted them? And are these alt modes set in stone, or will we be able to get new alts in the future?

No, I'm afraid they couldn't've been carried over because htey were almost all in altclasses that the maximals/predacons didn't have. And an image cannot exist in two classes at once.

can we get this thread, or the essential info on the first page, stickied?

There could be a reason for all the Pokemon, Digimon, etc. Like some Scout Class Bots got sent to differant worlds, Planets, Dimenions. For other Alt-Modes, or they got them by watching Earth's T.V. and thought they were real animals. That's probaly why we have them. Besides I like them alot.


Real awesome totally splended job on all the new Alt-Modes to all those that made them. 4 thumbs up. way way up.

Well, judging from the fact, that the only working device you will allways found in a junkion base is a television, that is not impossible.


I thinked of it, and a Mission Text came out:

Autobots against Maximals: Gotta Get 'Em All! / Junkions Gone Wild!
Autobot: "THIS IS WRECK-GAR! WE ARE BREAKING UP OUR BROADCAST TO INFORM YOU THAT THE NEW SET OF ANIMONS MADE IT TO OUR PLANET! GET THEM AS LONG AS YOU CAN!"

Maximal: "This is Stampy! We request urgent help to the planet Junk! The Junkions have gone wild! They are shouting and throwing Bowling Balls at us! We have heavy casualties!"

There's a link to this already in the FAQ thread

Or they could be alien creatures, or fuzors, or transmetals... the possibilities are endless

Oh, I see. But we had the tank alt class >_< So are these the PERMANENT alt lists, or will there be a chance that I'll get that tank in the future?

I know its a bit late, and all to complain about things. But Iwas out of things for a little while to get stablized on lexapro and missed out on a lot of what went on. But why dont the predacons have more cats? Why are the maximals getting all the cool looking cats? Cats are predators and it would make sense for the predacons to have more of them. I really dont want to go maximal but I would like a larger variety of cats in the predacons to choose from.


Also whats up with the butterfly in the predacon list? Isnt that stretching things a bit?

Maximals, however, tend towards mammalian and avian forms, whereas Predacons tend towards reptilian and insectoid/ arthropoid (sp?) forms.

Hmmm.

Well then I declare a felinoid revolution! Brother and sister cats throw off the restrictive chains those goody-two-shoes bind you with to enforce your obedience. You are not dogs to bend to the leash of the dominion of goodness! Nay you are feline and your very soul yowls for freedom. Freedom to do as you will: To jump upon the Autobot table and eat out of a plate, To scratch upon primes favorite couch and then cross our eyes insultingly when they try to reprimand us. Let us all join the predacons and demand all the cat modes!

*tosses a saucer of milk in front of Mamakitty*

Kamjiin might get jealous if he sees you trying to bribe me. Or was that supposed to be your entrance fee for joining the feline revolution?

Don;t get me wrong, I love cats. It's my nose that disagrees. You just looked like you could use a nice saucer of milk. Nad pssibly a good scratching behind the ears, but we don;t wanna tick off Kamjin. (As if I'm scared. )

I'm working on rarity now! Bots are done.
The symbol to the left of the icon indicates its planned rarity

How I've decided to do rarity is to work with a random number generator. Working with the numbers 1-280, I used a computer program to scramble the numbers, then I divided them at slots 50 & 100. The first 50 numbers that were generated were compared with the order of the alts in this list. These alts I classed as core. The numbers in slots 51-100 became rares and 101-280 are commons. I may play around with them a little for a more even spread later on. but for now, that's what they are.

No one can make the claim that I'm biased in this.

Edit: Cons are done too.

Cool Mkall!
It will be interesting to see how rarity levels for the maximal/predacons will be!

I love the Gunstar Alt for the Preds. I hope it's core. Kudos to whoever came up with that one, btw.

The Cassette has moved from core to common, ah well, but the Tie Interceptor[size=0](I love you Mkall!)[/size] has moved from nowhere to common too, good work!

And the Dimbag Axe is a core alt; ROCK!!!1!
Psychout has a new alt mode...

You made the Berserk Fury alt a common alt for the s?

COOL!

And yet I still manage to somehow pick a rare alt.

Well I can find altmodes that I'd be happy with for my entire team in the core and common categories, so I'm happy.

Finished with the maximal rarities. Keep in mind that once I finishe the preds later today, I'll probably go back once more and adjust a few things.
