Transformers Mosaic: "Multi-Force 14."

Postby Richter » Tue Aug 03, 2010 11:48 pm

The Universe of the Transformers is vast, and populated by many characters. Their universe is a large tapestry, made up of the stories and points of view of countless experiences that serve the larger whole.

These are some of those stories. This is:

So the only way to make this Diaclone character interesting was to make him the Fallen? I mean really? The Fallen? WHY?????
This character could have potential but turning him into the Fallen?
Making him the killer of Sentinel Prime?
I think this should have been thought out more, seems more like a- "make him a badass as quick as possible so people will think he's cool" kind of story.

I like the art, but I as well feel that it was a cheap ending.

I dunno, I kind of think the opposite is in play here.

I think this makes The Fallen cooler by giving him a bit of personality and background.

I always felt the comics left him as a bit of a generic bad guy that the good guys had to fight simply because he was EVIL. (insert menacing laugh here)

A lot like movie Megatron, he was never given a lot of reason why he wanted to destroy everything.

I never felt he was much more than "the cool looking one with the flames".

rpetras,

I agree -- This Mosaic gives dimension to a character that was, for all intents and purposes, a generic source of evil that had to be fought. I really enjoyed this Mosaic and it makes me wish that I could read more about the overall story of which the Mosaic is only a snapshot.

great art, but the letters are soooooo small, and i know these arent in canon, but if you read or have started to read Transformers: Exodus, this would just irritate you.

Too...confusing...to...follow! I don't think it had a strong story despite the good art. According to my cannon, Megatron killed Sentinel (or Zeta, whichever you prefer), and the Fallen was around before this even happened...but good art, that's all I have to say.

True, Megs did the deed, but that is in "official" canon (until IDW screws up continuity again). Mosaics aren't official, just us playing around. And - granted - this isn't the best TFM I've seen, but I used to have a Multi-Force 14 when I was a kid, so I like this one.

:P Nah, he's not. I am in no way a Voltron expert(I know VERY little of him), and had no idea there was "another" Voltron till I read it in a Magazine some years back.

Anyway, Multi-Force 14 is this guy:

Not this guy:

Image

http://www.collectiondx.com/review/chogokin/dairugger_xv

Multi-Force 14 was a Diaclone/Diakron figure that came out slightly before Transformers, and thus could be considered psuedo Transformers, like that Jet/Helicopter Triple Changer or Marlboro Wheeljack.

According to Collection DX, Dairugger XV or Voltron I came out a couple years before Multi-Force, and Takara was probably influenced by him.

As for the Mosaic itself, I like it!

personally i prefer the fun little mosaics rather than the huge multipart taking its self way tos eriously ones.

You do find there is a bit of a cleque on here with mosiacs, who bash anything that doesnt seem to loosely fit some continuity.

There has only been 1 mosiac which was cannon the rest are more like transformers: What If? except if you called it that Marvel would probabaly sue :P

As for this one, well done for taking a artistic and different view on a character. The art was good and the story not too hard to follow although it does ask a little bit more knowledge than the avergae TF fan might know about some charcters and origins.

I think revengeofstarscream was just making a joke. Either way, that was the first thing that came to mind when i saw that panel. I didn't like the mosaic; its story feels rushed and shallow.

So that's how the Fallen came to be. From now on, I'm sticking to this story about the original Fallen's history. :lol: ;)

I was enjoying this mosaic right up until the last panel. Yes I know that mosaic's aren't canon, but this simply violates the basic that the Fallen is one of the original 13.

Great idea using a toy with a loose connection to the origins of the TF toyline, placing him decently into the background of a known event for many TF story-lines, and reformatting him into a known character that should work out, but a character stated to be a multiverse constant from the early days of Primus? Sorry IMO it fell short with that.

I must agree, I don't like that he was The Fallen....plus, isn't The Fallen one of the original 13?
And uh...who is Multiforce 14???
Oh, someone said it, ok thanks!

I have to agree with Editor. I loved the artwork and the story until the end where it completely fudges with all canon by making him become The Fallen. Again, these mosaics don't need to be canon, but this one destroys the very basic building blocks of the canon.
