It's that simple."
Weapon: Vibro-Axe
-- How come Astrotrain is the same size as his buddies in robot mode, but in spaceship mode, even Devastator can stand up inside?

-- Powerlinx in Energon using two bots. Is it just a glorified piggy-back ride?

-- If G1 Hound want to be human so much, why he never upgraded to a pretender shell?

-- After Animated "ended", does Sari become a full fledged transformer? Will she be a powermaster to a cool and sexy transtector body?

-- When a giant robot is formed from a combiner team, does the gian have it's own soul or does the leader of the team have control?

-- An all female combiner team making a giant fembot. How does that sound?

"Honey I Shrunk the Giant Transforming Alien Robot"

If G1 Hound want to be human so much, why he never upgraded to a pretender shell?


He was never destroyed by an Underbase-fueled Starscream. Which is a surprise, because a LOT of the TFs were.

After Animated "ended", does Sari become a full fledged transformer? Will she be a powermaster to a cool and sexy transtector body?


No, it turns out she has a piece of Megatron's spark in her and she becomes total uber bitch.

When a giant robot is formed from a combiner team, does the gian have it's own soul or does the leader of the team have control?


They all have souls except for Predaking because he is a ginger.

An all female combiner team making a giant fembot. How does that sound?


Like the new posterbot for the intergalactic version of GLAAD.

Megatron have been a gun, a phaser, a canon, a spaceship, a tank, an helicopter, a dragon, a tyranosaurus, a giant head, an helicopter, even a truck. So, what's next?


A dragon?

If Primus and Unicron have legs in robot mode. On what can they walk?


Unicron pranced around on Cybertron pretty good. And if they ever fought, Primus would tap dance all over Unicron's punk ass.

If a transformer go for a new paintjob, will he change his name? Will his personality change as well?


Only one. Tracks. He would change his name to UberTrax and become even more of a conceited a**hole.

Where are the Gobots?


Where they belong. In their own special circle of hell.

Motto: "Can't do a job halfway. What's worth doing is worth doing well, I say."
Weapon: Saber Blade
My turn.

Same reason Megatron and Soundwave are giant robots who turn into an itty bitty gun and tape deck. Size changing.

-Kanrabat- wrote:-- Powerlinx in Energon using two bots. Is it just a glorified piggy-back ride?
Well, one guy forms the pants. :P

But it's basically a way of cutting the amount of the Autobot's forces down in half, decreasing their ranks to be more easily outnumbered in battle, all in a marketing ploy to sell toys. ;)

-Kanrabat- wrote:-- If G1 Hound want to be human so much, why he never upgraded to a pretender shell?
The cartoon ended before the Pretender toys came out. As for everywhere else, there was no Hound Pretender toy made to sell, so the fiction did not make him one (as they'd be promoting a toy that doesn't exist).

-Kanrabat- wrote:-- After Animated "ended", does Sari become a full fledged transformer? Will she be a powermaster to a cool and sexy transtector body?
This I can answer. After season 3 ended, she began living on Cybertron, studying under Arcee's guidance to help her learn how to be a better Cybertronian. She's aided by her Tutorbot 2.0 companion, which was programmed by Perceptor and resembles a Diagnostic Drone from Beast Machines. She was present to witness the Stunt Convoy performance in "The Stunti-Con Job" comic, sitting in the stnads along with the rest of her team (minus Prowl, who died. R.I.P. Prowl :-( ).

-Kanrabat- wrote:-- When a giant robot is formed from a combiner team, does the gian have it's own soul or does the leader of the team have control?
It varies in different cases depending on the series. Sometimes the leader's mind takes over. Sometimes all the individual minds merged into one unified mind, and sometimes the gestalt gets its own new mind for itself. Though, for the Japanese versions, it's usually whoever forms the head/torso that's in command of the gestalt.

-Kanrabat- wrote:-- An all female combiner team making a giant fembot. How does that sound?
No different from any all male combiner, except with a difference in gender. :KREMZEEK:

-Kanrabat- wrote:-- Megatron have been a gun, a phaser, a canon, a spaceship, a tank, an helicopter, a dragon, a tyranosaurus, a giant head, an helicopter, even a truck. So, what's next?
What Hasbro/Takara/the writers feel like. :-B

-Kanrabat- wrote:-- If Primus and Unicron have legs in robot mode. On what can they walk?
They're mostly for aesthetic purposes. But if there's a large enough surface for them to stand on like, say, a ginormous other planet, then they could stand on that. But it's basically like asking why all TFs still have legs at any point during which they're floating in outer space.

-Kanrabat- wrote:-- If a transformer go for a new paintjob, will he change his name? Will his personality change as well?
A change in color doesn't make a bot a new person. They can change their name if they want, but their identity would still be the same. The only way to change a bot's personality is if some drastic reworkings are made directly to the personality itself.

-Kanrabat- wrote:-- Where are the Gobots?
  • The Tonka GoBots are in their own world in the Gargent Cluster, though a handful of them crossed over into the TransTech universe and then the Classics comics universe.
  • Generation 2 Gobots is in both the Wings Universe and the IDW G1 comics. He's alive in the former, but dead in the latter.
  • The G2 Go-Bots are also the Wings Universe.
  • The Playskool Go-Bots are in their own world in the Yayayarst Cluster.
  • The Japanese Rescue Heroes Go-Bots are also in their own world in the Yayayarst Cluster.
  • The DOTM Go-Bots are still being sold in stores this holiday season under the Robo Power label. ;)

Remember the machine that put Spike's mind in a robot body? Hound went the other way...

Nope, she's a pony now. Ponies are cool.

See, that's like the G1 Dinobot combiner: it sounds like a good idea on paper, but the result? Not so much:

A Tata Nano.
