Titan has oceans of methane, generators in Jupiter's magnetic fields could pump out huge amounts of electricity, Io is mostly iron just waiting to be mined, etc, etc... So there's lots of excuses for a crew to just "happen by" a place and accidentally discover a vein of the purple stuff...
Not to forget the Sun itself being a general power source to pilfer from... Hell, Unicron's planet mode could be hidden in Mars for all we know.
I refuse to re-read that tripe to try and prove you wrong, so I concede your point.
Can't prove me wrong! Nyeh nyeh nyeh.
He's also destined to die somewhere down the line to make room for Optimus, so eventually you'll have that slot open again...
Ah, yes! That's a cheery thought. Sentinel's gonna get his just deserts!
I'll just have to be patient, then... I could just pircture it... Blackout and Lugnut: professional fanatical destructive bodyguards for hire.
You made me very happy. I can has recreation of the SOCCENT base scene. Just don't any humans shoot Blackout in the crotch, though.
It looks that way, yeah.
-gives Warcry a hug-
G1.
BW.
Animated.
All three versions really. Once you beat up Predaking...
G1 comic.
Every version ever.
See? So basically you'll be playing Movie Megatron. He's a composite of the three, packaged in a spiky chandelier packaging.
Stop reading TV Tropes so much.
IT'S ALL ZIGGY'S FAULT!
It's not that Movie Megatron isn't fun, it's just that he doesn't bring anything unique to the table.
Not true. Other than the aforementioned High Octane Nightmare Fuel (he's the only Megatron with a scary face, barring maybe G1 Megatron at the height of his craziness), Megatron brought us a new head design, positively wicked claw arms, that spiked chandelier design, that DEATH KLAWWWW and... and...
Here's new: total servitude to a higher power. And actively trying to revive his people into something greater despite Optimus Prime's short sighted vision of refusing to kill a fleshling in order for their race to survive.
Indonesia, isn't it?
Sneaky Canadian, you checked IP addresses!
I is Chinese, though. I know KUNG FUUUUUU!
Why did you have to go and say that? Now I'm going to want to play him again.
See? So many that I want to play.

Hadn't thought about that, personally. What are you pondering?
I mean prior Transformers contact on Earth. Kind of like Transformers crashing on Earth prior to our Autobots and Decepticons coming there. Say, like the AllSpark/Megatron/Seekers/other random crap having been on Earth for a long time in the Movieverse. Or Crosswise and the monster Decepticons and freakin' Atlantis in the Cybertron cartoon. Or the Insecticons and other random plot devices in the G1 cartoon. Now obviously we won't use Megatron crashlanding on Earth in the past, but will we have Cybertronians/Cybertronian technology on Earth hidden somewhere?
Personally I liked the idea of ancient Transformers, like, say, ROTF Jetfire or our RPG's Wing Saber being trapped comatose on Earth. Maybe they were stranded on Earth because of whatever Unicron-Primus plot we will have?
You'll have to knife-fight Heinrad to the death for him I think.
As long as he talks like Morbo and/or Lrrr I'll be happy.
Hein's playing STRAXUS?
This is so crazy on so many counts that I can't bear to fight him for it. Besides, if I play Straxus it would be an endless stream of 'Mercy is not dispensed of here, fools! Only death!'
Besides, Heinrad is the guy who made me take Minerva and the freaking Breastforce seriously. The fact that he's playing Straxus alone makes me excited.
Hein, let's see you play Tailgate! Come on!
That certainly makes more sense than just killing people because you can.
Of course, later on when they have Dark Energon they'll be able to skip the 'recycling' part entirely...
ZOM-BEEEEEEES and steroid-addicted goons. Nice combination. You know, we never did see whatever happened to the two guys who got empowered by the Dark Energon in WFC (Barricade and Brawl). Brawl was present in a minor-ish role as ground forces commander, but Barricade was never seen again. ZOM-BEE?
You know, this whole Dark Energon thing could give a great origin for whomever is playing Bomb-Burst.
Damn, no one's thinking of picking up BW Dinobot? You all suck.
