Transformers Bayverse - Blog Posts

Even worse, as groups humans can convince each other to do some of the stupidest things. Such as, catapulting themselves off of car hoods and cockpits.

In all fairness, the Liaisons made a very good point. Could the bots even do it? I mean, they practically challenged them to do it!

The liasons managed to convince both Whirl and Wheeljack to do it. Whirl wanted to hurl the tiny humans to see if they would explode if they missed the stack of pillows they were using as a landing pad. Wheeljack just wanted to know if he had the same strength in his alt mode as he did in his bot mode.

Optimus is having a talk with Rodimus when a liaison flies past. The prime nearly shuts down as he watches this tiny lifeform fly through the air. Miss the pile of pillows, and crash land into the wall. And then a second one flies past with just as much force. Thankfully they landed in the pillows.

Wheeljack and Whirl knowing now is probably the time to run:

Optimus who is .3 seconds away from killing them:

Taking this post and adding my two cents:

In Age of Extinction KSI used Megatron’s head to code for their bots. Brains says something along the lines of “his head isn’t as dead as they thought”. Megs is able to pass on his consciousness to his new body this way.

Daytrader had Starscream’s fully intact head (even though it should be destroyed). With Starscream’s indestructible spark I say his head is all that’s needed to resurrect him. Megatron may have even known Starscream was still alive somewhere in there because he spoke to him.

Also

The Allspark can give so much energy and power for a nearly destroyed bot to completely reform a new body: i.e. Frenzy

The Fallen already stated the Allspark cannot be destroyed only transform. When the Allspark fragment mixed with the Matrix it became an all in one power source of the Primes.

Quintessa and Optimus both have the power to bring Starscream back. I think it may had been in the works to have him come back with how his head is somehow fully intact and Megatron just so happens to be the one to find him.

Thinking about this AU again

I just think it would be a neat way to bring immortal Starscream to Bayverse. Literally has his spark dragged back to living by Quintessa’s “ “ “magic” ” ” and now he can’t fucking die again, and he’s so TIRED, just make it end oh my god

Boring reason: Quintessa was just bringing back old sparks to rebuild Megatron’s army to do her bidding, but did not have time to do more that Starscream and a handful of others before getting her shit pushed in by Optimus.

Shippy reason: Starscream was brought back specifically in order to make Megatron easier to manipulate and control. Gets a brand just like Megatron and Nemesis, and she routinely makes him do things to keep Megs compliant.

Either way it’s fucked up and even after Quintessa disappears he’s still stuck alive and it’s Hell.

I know it's been going around for a while that Bumblebee is an over utilized character. However this isn't true, in fact, I would say Bumblebee is miss utilized. Here's why...

Way back when transformers was first starting out with the Sunbow G1 comics, Bumblebee wasn't the sunshine child character who was part of the main cast. In the character profiles Bumblebee function was put as Espionage, meaning Bumblebee was a part of either the Spec Ops or as an spy(agent), or both. However, when the T.V. series of transformers was created and aired Bumblebee was put in the main cast by him having a friendship with Spike, making him popular with kids.

And since, Hasbro focuses on toy sales, Bumblebee who was the more friendly and sunshine character in the G1 T.V. series led to them having that role be the basis for Bumblebee's character.

I admit, since the Sunbow comics came out a long time ago, I don't have the full on stories. However, forums discussing and going over the comic issues have helped. In fact, while yes Bumblebee does have some issues regarding whether the team needs him, he is actually really cunning, and as one forum put it manipulative.

There were several moments in which Bumblebee and then as Goldbug showed this. Using the "Cute little autobot" act to his advantage. Such as when he exploited Blaster who wanted to get even with Grimlock. Or that time in UK "Victory" when he had shamed a broken Ultra magnus to the point that Ultra was pushed to fight Galvatron again.

Really, Bumblebee character should be one that is always wearing a mask, putting on an act, and in the background. Still having that curiosity, Courage, and need to prove himself to his fellows. However, Bumblebee character acted like they were in their 30's which suits them, not a late teenager, or type of Hot Rod/Shot character.

Bumblebee character isn't a kid. Nor is he Optimus prime's child. The characters that fit that role would be Hot Rod or Hot Shot.

Also, Bumblebee is supposed to be one of the shortest and weakest characters. Seeing a lot of the more recent continuities give the character a bigger size and alt mode, seeing tfp Bumblebee be taller than Acree had me going "wait what!?" It makes more sense for Bumblebee to be the motorcycle and Acree as the car.

Honestly, bayverse could of had the spy role for Bumblebee work a whole lot more. Especially, in how Bumblebee was the one to keep all the other autobots hidden. Or the one to infiltrate KSI to find out what was happening to the Autobots corpses.
