Yup. No chance to encounter any toothy creatures.


I wouldn't expect him to find anything in that environment. =x I was talking about alien planets.


Unlikely. During the Allspark episode, the Cybertronian war, that is, Megatron didn't drop by any planet. He just passed by them, trying to detect the Allspark signature. He landed only on Earth and was put under stasis mode.

Unless he toured the other planets before the Cybertronian war. In that case, it will be way before 4 millions ago. Hardly any life forms on any planet at that time.


I agree he could have toured planets before the war but how do you know there were hardly any lifeforms on any planets back then? If the Cybertronians themselves existed other life forms could have, too.

Exactly. Saying that there wouldnt be other life forms around is stupid and ignorant.

I don't think anyone here (including me) said there wouldn't be other life forms.

Someone stupid must have said it, and slipped by me... or that, stupidity is in him who tries to change other's statements at every turn.

Anyway, if my statement will be read correctly, and the meaning not be changed, it meant there will be significantly less species of lifeform in less planets. My English may not be too good. But i hope the idea is hit on the head with this one. :HEADHURTS:

If my assumption is not accurate, then let me say that at least there may be less kinds of life forms during those times, than 4 millions years after.

Yup.

"Hardly any life forms" means "very few", "difficult to find".

It sure hell doesn't mean ZERO.

But you still don't know there would be hardly any life forms. There could have been an abundance of life forms we don't know about. There could have been more life forms back then than there is now.

I kinda thought Megs looked like the Guyver in the movie. I gotta agree that it kinda ruins the movie for me.

That's a possibility.

Some lifeforms and civilizations could have been wiped out.

I don't think Megatron's design would have been so jarring if we'd seen him in sequences with other protoform Transformers. If we'd seen a flashback of him with protoform Decepticons or in combat with protoform Prime then his design would have fit in with others around him. After all, he only really looks different because of his lack of Earth-themed kibble (except for maybe his teeth!).

Haha. The teeth is definitely earth-design kibble.

Looking at the prequel arts, i notice Autobots protoforms looks very similar to each other.

While Decepticons protoforms varied far apart.

Based on what we know. For all we know, Earth could be the last planet to develop life.
