There's well more than nine Constructicons in this world. Why, there's enough of them to make at least two Devastators!

That could be really interesting. There's good potential if they have more than 6 constructicons show up. I know, was it exodus that had 2 devastators? Be cool if they had one devastator comprised of 5 guys and another comprised of 4 or something. So, they're each unique devastators, not just like, the same like the seekers.

Yes, Exodus. Alpha Trion guessed that one Devastator was comprised of at least six or seven Constructicons. And, IIRC, during the battle that two Devastators appeared in, there were still many more uncombined individual Constructicons running around on the ground. So, the total number of Constructicons in this universe may be a very large one.

I'd say:

From 2007 movie:
Brawl
Bonecrusher
Barricade
Blackout

From TFA:
Lugnut

From G1:
Shockwave

From DOTM:
The Dreads
* Crankcase
* Crowbar
* Hatchet

And from ROTF:
Scalpel

Also, some Decepticon Pretenders. Let's be honest, who's better to infiltrate into Enemy base than an agent who can actually look like one of the Autobot human allies?

But aside from Strangehold and Starscream, the Deceptcions Pretneders tok the forms of monsters, demons, and beasts.

Not To contradict you but, Alice

1) Shockwave, especially if they introduce one or more of the Dinobots, considering what bits of backstory Shockwave and the Dinos have in Fall of Cybertron.

2-6) The Predacons, with or without Predaking. It's about time Razorclaw and company showed up in a Transformers TV series, and they could be wonderful foils for the Dinobots.

7) Lugnut from Animated. Bulkhead's in, why not his counterpart? It be amusing to see Frank Welker act out a Megatron whose both satisfied and frustrated with a character like that.

Blitzwing or Astrotrain, though how you'd justify any of the Triple Changers in this series would be a mystery to me.

9) Ravage. Give Soundwave another "pet" other than Laserbeak.

10) Trypticon. Have the Nemesis turn into the monster.

'Twas referring to G1, but yeah, her too.

I know, but I think Red 50 was reffering to the Movie Pretender

And I quote, chapter 29, page 272, lines 6 through 16:

Yet, Megatron himself rode skyward, in single-minded pursuit of the Ark, his vessel the reconfigured Trypticon. With him were Starscream, Lugnut, Soundwave--the elite of the Decepticons. Even as his Decepticon armies overran Iacon, Megatron triggered Trypticon's third form, the great, Nemesis-class battleship capable of carrying an army and destroying anything else that has ever flown. The multiform Trypticon was the greatest triumph of Shockwave's science... Shockwave, who, as Megatron and Starscream chased after the Autobots, looked out over a Cybertron that was unexpectedly--and, to his deranged mind, marvelously--his and his alone.
Cybertron would never be the same.

oh, well, thats the book, not the show. wasn't there some debate as to how they are actually related? And furthermoreover I don't think WFC is a prequel to Prime, WFC I do believe can be considered it's own cannon storyline.

Finally found out why Megs hasn't changed the Nemesis back into Trypticon yet. He can't. According to Exiles, when the Nemesis passed though the collapsing space bridge after leaving Cybertron, its systems were permanently damaged to the point that it was rendered a mere non-living spacecraft, with all of Trypticon's functions put out of commission for good. Looks like Trypticon has permanently become the Nemesis now.

Probably a case of "don't have the parts" as far as far as fixing him is concerned. It would seem odd that they can scavenge human tech and build a space bridge with it, but then again, Cybertronians may be a more complex type of tech. Especially if one of those "parts" was ol' Tryp's spark.

Erm, it was a little more delicate than a simple lack of parts.

Exiles, chapter 14, page 163, lines 9-18 wrote:The Space Bridge exploding had blown a wave front of energy through the Nemesis that barely was lessened by the ship's thick hull. All the Decepticons aboard it were overwhelmed where they stood, and some of them began to stir again, at first none of them knew how long it had been since they had been conscious. The Nemesis itself had become stasis-locked after its final transformation out of Trypticon mode, and whatever sentience it once had possessed was now permanently subsumed into its ship function.

So, yeah, major bummer for Tryppy.

1 - Shockwave

2 - Blitzwing

3-8 - Combaticons/Bruticus combiner

9 - Seekers

10 - Cyclonus

I am going along the stroyline sofar so
#1 Jeaxus
#2 Scourge
#3 Scorponock (Actually a member of the human terrorist organization bent on world domination???)
#4 The Fallen
#5-#10 Bruticus
#11 Orion Pax

With ebilly's mention of that evil terrorist group, MECH,reviewing some of the episodes in the wait for Season 2 to kick off. So far ,other than Silas, the group's leader. There hasn't been any other name characters, or standouts. One guy I'd think would be pefect for the organization looking to conquer the world through possessing the superior technology, would be the classic human Transformer villain, Dr. Arkeville.(http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Dr._Arkeville).

Would like to see the demented genius heading up MECH's Project Chimera which kind of makes me thinking of something like the Headmasters are on the way. Another mad scientist from the good old days is a bloke from the INHUMANOIDSseries, Dr. Herman Mangler.

A criminally motivated genticist who was arrested for creating nightmarish creatures in his lab. MECH having a guy in the organization who thinks the way to go is not giant robots, but giant beasties of his creation. Someone who challenges Silas's authority like Starscream does to Megatron.

#1-5 Combaticons/Bruticus

#6 Shockwave

#7 Cyclonus

#8 Animated styled Blitzwing

#9 Lugnut

#10 Sunstorm (would be like a hyper active form of starscream who like s to bug screamer and often mock him)

In no order

Tyranis
Skywarp
Thundercracker
Quake
Skyquake
Motormaster
Wildrider
Dead End
Breakdown
Holigan

Count Dooku in Prime?

He's already in.

Marcus Rush wrote:Breakdown

So is he.

eh Tyranis is supposedly an older precursor Con, a predecessor or in this case a loyal general of Megatron.

Skyquake I forgot about, but I gotta see more of that poor zombie

and by Breakdown I meant Dragstrip... always did get those two psyco's confused, regardless of their dissimilar alt forms.

Marcus Rush wrote:eh Tyranis is supposedly an older precursor Con, a predecessor or in this case a loyal general of Megatron.

In what continuity?

Some aren't as plausible as others, but I'd like to see:

Shockwave
The Insecticons (They count as three )
A Jetfire that homages his original VF-1 Valkyrie form as much as possible, y'know, without being copyright infringement. Knowing Hasbro though he'd probably be more like ROTF Jetfire than anyone else.
Sixshot
Sky-Byte
Armada Thrust
More independent combiner dudes like Breakdown, maybe Brawl or Swindle, or Killbison.

And I want this Overlord in there


Also I want Tim Curry to voice him.

Jetfire's an Autobot.

I don't know of any "Tyranis" (unless Marcus Rush was thinking of someone else).

I'd love to see Slipstream given her time in the spotlight. She departed from Animated way too soon. Watching her interact with Airachnid could get interesting, too.

The only word of that which I understood was "Prime"

What?

All we need to know now is where she is, since she was aboard the Nemesis after it left Cybertron.

War for Cybertron and Exodus (as do Fall of Cybertron and Exiles) occur in the ancient past, while Prime and the two online RPG games take place in the present day. What's not to understand?

The two "season 3.5" comics from BotCon 2011. The season 4 stuff was detailed in the AllSpark Almanac II book, but it is considered "apocryphal" since the actual season was never produced.

They're different, mmmkay?

Just look up Slipstream under multiple continuities, she isn't TFA exclusive, she was in WFC!

And he isn't making any of it up. this is Sabrblade we're talking about here, the greatest TV trivia human database that I've ever known. He is the go-to guy for any questions that you don't probably know the answer to. And what else lies in that immpossible cranium? We may never know...
