Not sure if this'll take off, but I thought it'd be fun. I'm sure a lot of us here have headcanons for Transformers, so I wanna hear some of them!

I guess to start off, here's one of mine:

Citybots are in toy scale in robot mode for the stake of structural stability. Due to the Square/Cube Law, a city-sized robot would likely collapse under its own weight. In city and ship modes, they mass-shift to larger sizes so normal bots can live in them. Energy shields make up for the lesser armor strength, utilizing the same energy source used for robot mode movement.

When something smells, bots with face masks put their masks up and bots without them are envious.

The only head canon I have is concerning the comics. I consider the Armada comics to be a direct continuation of the original G2 comics. I explain the difference in appearances for Megatron and Optimus as simply upgrades.

That works? I haven't read either one, but I'd figure there would would at least a couple inconsistencies.

Maybe if you go looking with a magnifying glass you might find some, but there aren't any noticeable ones, at least not to me. There are a few omissions regarding some characters, as the G2 comics were cancelled before the story was finished, but as far as the main characters are concerned, it more or less works. Optimus is a truck and stays that way. Megatron is a big green tank and stays that way, even though his design is different. I just assume he got upgrades in the time between the two stories. The only thing I have a hard time getting to fit is the fact that Unicron was destroyed in G1, and he's back in Armada. The only way to make it work is to ignore G1 and count G2 as the beginning of the story. But that's why it's head canon and not official canon.

My whole Youtube channel is based on my personal head cannon.

-Skywarp is Cyclonus, but Bombshell parts were used to make him more intelligent. The leftovers parts made another Sweep.

-Rumble is BLUE!

-The Constructicons were peaceful Decepticons who built Megatron. After Megatron started the war sometime later, he reprogrammed them using the Robo-Smasher and Shockwave was successful in giving them a combiner mode. They escaped from Omega Supreme until they were damaged and crashed on Earth. Megatron built for them new bodies prior to the events of Heavy Metal War. Their ship was used to create the strength transfer device.

-Skyfire was friends with Starscream and usually isn't in combat. Jetfire is his Air Guardian brother.

-Dion and Magnum were merged to make Ultra Magnus.

-Vector Sigma is at the core of Primus. The Quintessons merely used his power to mass produce Cybertronians and used them as their slaves. Until they revolted. What they said inside the Matrix was merely from their point of view, and not the whole story.

-Primacron merely assisted Unicron in creating his body as he was still trapped in the lifeless asteroid.

-Starscream time traveled at the time of his death back to Earth and met the Maximals. Getting blasted out of Waspinator sent him back into space and through time to the events of Starscream's Ghost.
