You mean Generations? That's still continuing, even though Sky Shadow and Junkheap (Black Shadow and Junkyard, darn it!) are the last two releases of 2011.

Though, this thing calls for more than just a toyline, and the only known TF TV shows that are coming are more seasons of Prime and the new Rescue Bots cartoon.

Erm, no it doesn't. There was the Classics toyline, and then there were newer different toylines (Henkei! Henkei!, Universe 2008, Generations, United, Reveal the Shield) that used a similar style to it.

Thats what I mean it the same series just with different names.

Could it be part of Hasbro's plan to bring all continuities into one universe and to try and shoehorn them all together somehow? (That was what they were wanting to do, wasn't it...?)

I think you got WAAYYYY too much epic on the brain! :lol:

Would be awesome though....

Seriously though, I do remember them charging some writer with the responsibility of somehow connecting all the various story lines together (this was early last year I think).

No it wouldn't. It would be a disasterous impossibility.

If you're referring to Alex Irvine, who wrote Exodus, he was not charged with merging all universes together into one story. What that book did was take bits and pieces from all past TF fiction, and combine just those elements into one story. The rest of what wasn't used, however, was discarded.

All Primes from different universes come together to stop the Fallen, but the Fallen has summoned different Megatrons to destroy the Primes

Okay I have a feeling of immediate berating :-s

No sir, on the contrary, look up Robot Masters episodes 1 and 2. I think you will find what you are looking for.

Sabrblade, is there anything you don't know about Transformers? :lol:

Wait, that's stupid, how would you know you don't know if you aren't aware of it?

On the contrary. There are indeed such stories in which multiple Optimuses and Megatrons come together to fight each other.

What would be berated is if you claimed every Optimus and Megatron to be the same guy.

There are several comic stories that I know not of their details. Which is why I'm trying to go back and read as many as I can. I've alrreayd read all the Marvel U.S. G1 comics and the Marvel U.S. G2 comics, and am currently reading the Marvel UK G1 comics. I've still got a LONG way to go, though. :oops:

Oh, and then there's some children's books I haven't read either. But only the most die-hard of hardcore fans go for those...

...which means I porblaby gotta look into those too. :roll:

Don't forget Star Saber, the "greatest swordsman in the universe".

No doubt! Also, this is the only appearance of Rebirth Megatron/Reverse Convoy. One of my absolute favorite figures in my collection.

Could this be a subsidiary of Hasbro Studios that will oversee all future Transformers media?
