Well I am Australian. It's kinda what we're known for.

Lugnut is reeking havoc with the rest of his Decepticon brothers on my Classics/Gen shelf.
This seems like a good venue to through out this idea. We all know that Transformers were born from the evolution of transforming robot toys that came from Takara's Microman toy line. Maybe I am just seeing what I want to see, but the similarities are uncanny. What if Optimus Prime himself is an homage?
That of course is MP-01 standing next to Microman, Robotman. You'll notice Robotman has a Microman figure piloting him. If you take the notion that Diaclone Convoy came with a pilot that could ride in his chest, the similarities in color scheme, and really just some of the shapes in the two figures over all designs, I think this argument could have a little traction.

Makes sense.
He also shows up in the pack-in comic with Battle In Space Rodimus & Cyclonus, putting him there in the original movie timeframe... Oh and there's a cameo appearance in one of the prequel comic series, Monstrosity I think, also based on this design.
So yeah, officially retconned as the G1 Lugnut we never actually saw...

Kinda like Alpha Bravo!
Holy! That's actually kind of terrifying... like someone took all of Prime's clothes offCobotron wrote:Great article WJ88.
