Or any alt mode. Jets in space, cars with hydrofoils to go on water....
People often forget, the alt mode is just a disguise. They don't physically turn into those things with their limitations, they just look like them with some advantages, like better speed and maneuverability in jet mode compared to robot mode. They are still super advanced alien robot life forms from space.

When I watched the video on how to transform Tankor, the guy said they went with Tankor because they didn't have the rights to Octane. Now they're calling him Octone, which is one letter different. I noticed with the first two Decepticon triple changers they went with name that pertained to both vehicles they turned into. Blitzwing turns into a tank and a jet so they call him Blitzwing because a tank is known to do blitz type of attacks, and the wing is fairly obvious because he turns into a jet with wings. Astrotrain makes sense because he turns into a space shuttle, hence the Astro part of the name and a train, hence the train. What's a good name for Octane that would pertain to his tanker truck and his jet whether it's a cargo plane like Tankor is or another kind of plane. Next would be to somehow come up with newer names of Sandstorm, Broadside, and Springer that had to do with their vehicles.

It could be a lucky number for a lot of people because if you had 5 billion dollars, you'd be rich; and if you only had 5 billion cents, which is our smallest unit of currency, you'd still be rich because you'd have 50 million dollars. Plus they could say that it takes place in the far distant future.
Has Hasbro ever tried to release futuristic versions of what the cartoon showed some of the Transformers looked like before they were made to look like Earth vehicles like Jazz and the jets who would be shaped like pyramids and maybe some others that I can't remember?

Do my Ransack, Depthcharge, Rollbar, and that motorcycle Transformer have much value? If not, I have a few minicons including a Decepticon that turns into a dump truck.
