How would the TFP bots react to meeting and befriending a human with technokinesis? I’d imagine they’d be their version of a blood blender like from ATLA

-For the sake of them not being overpowered, we're gonna say that the human can only really control one cybertronian at a time. While they can control machinery pretty easily, a living being is harder and requires more focus. Also, bots can fight against it and while they can't completely erase their power, it makes it more difficult for the human. Eradicons and vehicons are easier to control.

-That being said, it's still a really strong power to have. By controlling the right bot at the right moment, they can change the tide of battle.

-While initially vary of this power, upon realizing that the human is on their side, the autobots quickly accepts and welcomes them. Their help is appreciated, both in and outside of battle.

-Ratchet more than appreciates it if the human help him around base and upon earning his trust, he will even allow them to help him with his medic work.

-Ultra Magnus... doesn't trusts them. It's nothing personal. They are an ally and he appreciates their help but he can't help but fear the harm they could cause if they were to ever turn against the autobots. So he secretly comes up with a plan to deal with them in case that ever were to happen. A weapon perhaps, or a toxin that temporarily negates their power. No one on the team knows except Wheeljack who feels the same way.

-In battle, the human stays hidden, waiting for the perfect opportunity to strike. Since they can only control one bot at a time it's important to chose the right one. At least one autobot is always close by in case the human is discovered and needs to be protected. Usually this is Arcee's, Bumblebee's or Smokescreen's job as they can quickly make their way over in case of an emergency.

-Smokescreen has definitely asked them to make a con (*cough*Megatron*cough*) punch themselves in the face.

-Arcee has asked the same thing except with Starscream.

-"Why are you hitting yourself? Why are you hitting yourself?"

Writing a RWBY x Transformers crossover

What should my first chapter be?

1. Team RWBY gets caught up in the middle of a fight between an Autobot and Decepticon (inspired by Bumblebee vs Blitzwing in bbm)

Or 2. Soundwave attacks an Atlas base (inspired by Blackout's attack in the 07 movie)

(Keep in mind, both chapters are being written, I'm just not sure which should be chapter 1)

Another banger post!!

Seriously the fact that the narrative bends to the idea that Autobots are just as bad as Decepticons is so frustrating because they never both actually showing it!! They clearly want to try and blur the lines and give a more morally gray/nuanced telling of Transformers but without putting in the time. They keep shortcutting because they know the audience knows that the Autobots are The Good Guys and the Decepticons are The Bad Guys and they want to stick to the foundations of the franchise so they bypass any actual stories that focus on how they’re anywhere near equal morality and instead decide to just tell the audience with a “just trust me” and they think by consistently having others blame the Autobots for everything and never have anyone defend them or explain it without portraying them as borderline hysterical that it makes it morally gray.

It doesn’t help that they constantly try to press the idea that absolutely everyone whether Cybertronians, humans, or other species are going to assume that Autobots and Decepticons are basically the same because they’re fighting. It worked at first for their first Earth story where humans didn’t publicly know about the war or had their interests in mind but by the time they got to “We work with Decepticons now because Megatron denounced them and became an Autobot.” it was becoming obnoxious even if it was a sketchy deal.

It’s even worse for the NAILs, I’m supposed to believe they all think Autobots and Decepticons are the same? Even ones like Metalhawk who specifically said they were Autobots before they deserted? I can understand having characters like Dai Atlas and his followers who think War is Bad Always but every neutral? I’m sorry but no. Especially when they consistently go “Autobots and Decepticons destroyed the planet!” Genuinely baffled by the decision not to have it pointed out that when Cybertron was destroyed and brought back to it’s primordial state, both times they were destroyed by someone from outside the war who they worked together to stop.

It’s just so frustrating that the narrative goes out of its’ way to try and tip the scales that Autobots and Decepticons are the same by trying to press a more sympathetic view to Decepticons while pushing for the freedom fighter angle while pointing out time and time again everything bad they’ve done while the Autobots are constantly treated by the narrative as some sort of edgy Senate knock-off and never bother with trying to dispute it just because the audience already knows whose supposed to be Good and Bad.

It wouldn’t be nearly as frustrating if the story actually bothered having the conversations it’s creating, ones with multiple points of view and arguments, by trying to make a nuanced political war drama.

Not much to add except that I completely agree. And I don’t really get why so many writers try so hard to add political depth where there isn’t any - or the story isn’t prepared to have any. It doesn’t make it seem more intelligent or more interesting to read, quite the opposite. Imo it’s way more important to have a story that’s emotionally satisfying and actually makes sense than bending backwards for supposed ‘nuance’.

#the only thing I’m getting rn #is that trying to do the right thing and holding yourself to moral standards is invitation for people to shit on you for not being perfect #or not finding perfect solutions for everything all the time #And that in the end none of the good things you did matters because they get cancelled out by the bad things you weren’t able to stop #wtf #transformers #maccadam #idw transformers

What Are They? (Shattered EarthSpark AU)

Previous post here. Somewhat direct continuation of the first post, unlike the second post. I'm tracking what episodes I've written for and the order of which they're written, so in time I'll have a master post with everything in order. For now, you're dealing with me just linking to previous. Long post ahead.

"How... strange," Megatron said in a rumbling tone. His frame was it's usual flight frame, though one he taken when teaming with GHOST (a shortened version of their full name, Global Hazard and Organized Security Taskforce), along with being white and blue. His bright blue optics looked over the two strange mecha Dr Meridian had returned with. The smaller being, more femme in stature but that didn't say much, stared at him and Optimus with a bloodlust in its optics as it slowly approached them. The taller of the two was much more quiet and shy, preferring to stay near Atlas Meridian.

"Hello, little ones," Optimus chirped, tone in an unnatural sweet tone. The former Autobot was still a large truck, black and purple in color with dark red optics, a near maroon color. The smaller looked directly towards Optimus, their optics meeting. "I am Optimus."

The smaller one's optics went wide with clear adoration as they replied, "We are Twitch."

"And I," Megatron began, stealing Twitch's attention from Optimus, "am Megatron, leader of the Decepticons."

The other young mecha didn't say a word, causing Dr Meridian to say, "This is Thrash." Thrash flinched at that, giving a small wave before they stepped away a bit. Atlas seemed to have noticed, as he added, "He's... not that comfortable around others."

Megatron nodded as Optimus, back to his more bland tone, stated, "Oh joy, already taking the world so harshly." He gave the black and purple bot a somewhat strong nudge, though Optimus just responded with a bored glance.

"Dr Meridian, what are these two?" Megatron asked.

Twitch's attention went back to Optimus as Atlas answered, "I am not too sure myself. GHOST detected a faint Cybertronian signal and when I went to see what it was, I found this strange stone. When I touched it, these two appeared and the cave the stone was in gained some damage."

Optimus's helm moved, raising a bit and optics glinting. "By chance, is the stone you speak of dark teal with speckles of a brighter teal?"

Meridian seemed unsure for a moment before he answered, "I wouldn't say it was dark teal, more of an ocean color, but it did have teal specks on it."

Optimus's finials flicked up as Megatron suddenly realized what the other was implying. "The Emberstone?" Megatron blinked.

"That is my thought process as well," Optimus said, glancing towards Megatron. He looked back at Atlas and asked, "Did anything else happen when the stone was activated, assuming it is the Emberstone? A voice, most likely."

Atlas gave them a weird look as Twitch continued to stare up at Optimus and Thrash shuffled back a bit. "No, just the cave damage when these two appeared. Two of the stalactites broke," he replied.

Optimus's finials did an odd motion as Megatron blinked. "Most likely not the Emberstone, then..." Megatron muttered.

"Well, no slagging clue then," Optimus deadpanned, causing Megatron to glare at him. "Unless it's some AllSpark scrap, no fragging idea."

"Language," Megatron chastised, then immediately recognized something the former Autobot said and looked away.

Optimus shrugged in reply, then his finials flickered when he saw Megatron's reaction. "We're here on Earth anyways. I was wondering when sparklings or sparkling-look-a-likes would begin to pop up," Optimus stated. "I expected Starscream and Jetfire to be first. They're not very good at hiding when they're--"

"NO!" Megatron interrupted, slammed a servo over Optimus's mouth. Optimus just stared at him with a bored look. Megatron stated, "They do not need to know."

Optimus raised a ridge as Megatron backed away. "Eventually," the black and purple truck blandly said.

Megatron's frame relaxed slightly as he looked towards Atlas and Thrash. Optimus looked down at Twitch as the white and blue mech said, "Forgive Optimus. He refuses to censor himself around... anyone, really."

"It is fine," Dr Meridian replied as Optimus knelt down to better be at Twitch's level. "It was best to report directly to you two before seeing what connection was created between my robotic arm and Twitch and Thrash."

Megatron nodded as Optimus made a noncommittal hum, adding, "They look around the age Bumblebee was when he gained his alt mode." Megatron glared at Optimus, but the former Autobot appeared to ignore him.

Megatron looked back at Atlas and said, "Once you and your team are finished, can you send Twitch and Thrash to the docking bay?"

"Of course," Atlas replied as Optimus stood back up. Twitch lifted a servo towards him, causing him to grin.

"You'll see me again, little one. Rejoin Dr Meridian," Optimus said. Twitch's young field flared in disappointment Optimus's field just began pushing against the young mecha's own, releasing a bit of reassurance into his field. Twitch lowered her servo, stared for a moment, then walked back to Atlas and Thrash. Thrash kept his distance from his sibling, field bubbling with nervousness.

"We'll see you again in due time," Megatron said before Atlas began to walk away. Thrash immediately followed, though Twitch lagged behind slightly to stare at Optimus before finally following.

Once they left, Optimus said, "I'll be there early, once I check in one Jetfire." He didn't wait for a reply, immediately walking out of the room.

Megatron stared for a moment, then his frame relaxed immensely and he turned towards a nearby table where a machine sat, looking like a purple box with many seems and loose plating. "RAPTR Unit 3, contact Executive Agent Croft," he said.

The machine reacted. It transformed from its small, compact box form into a raptor-like body shape that was roughly twice the size of an average human teenager. RAPTR's plating was mostly purple and bits of white and slate making up the rest of the plate color. Yellow biolights were on the droid, with its snout and face being replaced with a screen and camera. (RAPTR, being short for Recall Adviser and Pair Task Reporter.)

RAPTR's screen lit up, showing a loading screen. After a few moments, the familiar face of Agent Croft appeared on the screen. All he could see on the screen was her familiar silver hair, fair skin, green eyes, and part of her uniform.

Once it was clear it was connected, Croft asked, "What was found at the signal?"

"If what Dr Meridian said and our assumptions are correct, a stone of Earthen origins that is able to create Cybertronian-like life," Megatron replied. "It has created two of them so far, both relatively are at the tail end of their sparkling phase and soon to roll over into their youngling phase."

"Interesting..." Croft muttered. "That is something to be explored at a later point." She raised her voice. "Thank you for informing me. I'll make sure there's a team with an eye on it. Is there someone able to watch over these new... younglings?"

Megatron thought for a moment.

... okay tfa idea :3

So. Shockwave was a good and loyal service top and knocked up Megatron before he infiltrated the Autobots. For whatever reason, Shockwave is the one raising the sparkling. Perhaps Megatron isn't very much for tiny sparklings?

But it turns out the sparkling can shift just like Shockwave, so Shockwave does something he'll come to regret later. He modelocks the sparkling as an Autobot, and let's everyone assume he's the carrier. They're all very impressed, but also judgemental, about how Longarm is able to accomplish it all as a single carrier.

Until Longarm gets revealed as Shockwave and now that sparkling has to learn they were a Decepticon all along AND that Megatron is their carrier.

... I just had an additional horrible thought? Backstory for Drift/Deadlock?

I'd also suggest Megatron knew he'd be in battle often while as a spy Shockwave wouldn't, so it was also plain old safer for the sparklet

Also damnn on him modelocking the kid, does this also mean things regarding altmodes???

Iicr, there's some sparse information on tfa drift that starts with your typical "he was a decepticon until dai atlas convinced him differently and/or after a rough battle, then he became a decepticon" to me I'm gonna interpret that as this kid having spurned the autobots and became full decepticon for a while after his wife's capture, then eventually became an autobot (again?), Or we flip his origin up to autobot -> decepticon -> neutral

#because he's in tfa #... drift as a shifter sounds super fucking cool #maccadam #transformers #tfa drift #tfa dai atlas #tfa shockwave #tfa megatron #megashock #... extra points if you also roll with the ''sari was Megatron's sparkling'' approach #that would lead to interesting situations

So, after stumbling across this post again, I am having Ambulon thoughts again.

Canon facts according to panels and tweets:

Ambulon used to be named Thunderclash

He’s a MTO

He used to turn into either a generic car or a medical helicopter

He may have experienced altmode dysphoria

We can assume the rest of the failed experiment (the Combicons) are alive

So this gave me a plot bunny.

Thunderclash is a pretty cool name for a Decepticon MTO. And every Decepticon would know there is already a pretty famous Autobot with that name.

But the bot that would be Ambulon didn’t care. He survived his first battle. He did pretty good in it! He was feeling bold after zipping around with the other survivors from his MTO batch. And those survivors kept surviving.

They liked to heckle Autobots. Bait them into traps. They became good enough warriors that those who fought beside them showered them with praise and friendly backslaps. They started to think they were big stuff.

Ambulon was the first to pick a name. Thunderclash. He was the ringleader, and he called his group the Mockeries. Two of them picked the names Dai and Atlas. They all picked the names of prestigious Autobots.

And then one battle the Mockeries ran out of luck.

They were just good enough fighters that Shockwave decided to pick them up off the battlefield.

Thunderclash woke up us a leg. Shockwave called him Subject Ambulon. Not all of the Mockeries, now Project: Combicon, survived Shockwave’s attempts to make them combine. Making someone transform into a head and torso proved to be the most difficult. Shockwave didn’t try to salvage the failures a lot of the time. Ambulon hated not knowing how to patch up his friends, to at least try and save them.

Ambulon’s always felt out of place in his own frame. He’d been a generic car, but he’d always felt he was meant to fly. But being a leg is a lot worse. And now his hands burned, like he should be able to do something to heal those around him.

The rest of the Mockeries picked new names. Ones tied to their new roles as limbs. They didn't seem to mind the change. They were excited. Well, as excited as one of Shockwave's experiments could be. Sure, they could all die horribly. But that wasn't new. And if they became a combiner, they would be even more awesome than before! Ambulon couldn't understand it.

There were five other Mockeries left when Ambulon escaped. They were Kicker, Swing, Abdominus, and Arm-Or. Just enough parts to make one combiner. Ambulon doesn't know if they would have fit together. He doesn't think Shockwave would have killed them. Not until he's had a chance to retrieve their leg.

#I plan to use a variant of this in my own fics but all my plot bunnies are free to good homes #ambulon #maccadam #I think Ambulon should be a car who was meant to be a medical helicopter #original something

pt 2 of rereading the almanacs and stuff i noticed -jetfire calls starscream a “bakapor” and i have no fucking clue what that means. if anyone knows please tell me -sentinel will not stop calling ultra magnus old -shockwave considers perceptor a threat -wheeljack only has about 15% of his original body, most has been modified or replaced, probably from the 16,000 times he blew himself up -kup says damn

-kup has a nephew who i guess is his next of kin? -rodimus designed his bow -ironhide and brawn seem to be good friends -red alert knows blurr -red alert and ratchet went to the same med school -shockwave killed highbrow -project omega is literally called a war crime by shockwave as well

-ultra magnus and dai atlas are friends -alpha trion and yoketron were friends -”sky garry” is apparently a destron name -all autotroopers are given the same face and body when they join the force. what the fuck. also, they just generally give stormtrooper vibes visually which does not bode well -bumblebee’s frame type was created post-war, tap-out reformatted after the war to that frame type. its said to be energy efficient -”old malignus” is just portiguese. cybertronians used to speak portuguese. also, they know what ferrets are -perceptor programmed a new tutorbot for sari -sari has noticeably more abilities than a normal autobot -both sari and sentinel’s shields are called “skyboom shields” -bumblebee makes a “single white female” reference about him and wasp -strika does not like blackarachnia or swindle -cyclonus implies oil slick gets merced by galvatron -cyclonus is definitely future skywarp -megatron thinks blackout is a dumbass -decepticons just, really fucking love cloning. beyond the starscream and omega clones they also cloned perceptor during the war. shockwave regrets not just killing perceptor instead of cloning him -starscream has some nicknames for megatron including “megs” “megaclod” “bucket head” “dundertron” and “meggy” -its implied when shockwave took the magnus hammer he actually ripped ultra magnus’s arm off to do so -prowl writes like a thesaurus is possessing him -cybertron has a horroscope that includes yggdrasil for some reason. also characters say “great xal” a few times like a swear

-sentinel is a metaphor for the us government

-megatron really, really fucking hates sumdac -

-soundwave made laserbeak and ratbat but he made prototypes before them that he apparently just, released into the wild to cause problems -the steelhaven/sigma supreme was the last omega sentinel to be made -really funny comment from david kaye

#the second almanac is more about the production than lore so its not as long #also im very tured #transformers animated

In any of your fandoms what character(s) do you think deserved better? What should have happened instead?

Oh boy this is gonna be a long one.

Aang and Katara from Avatar the Last Airbender.

Aang should have gotten a growth arc. He should have been given the opportunity to mourn the genocide of the Air Nomads and learn how to let go of his attachment to Katara. Book 2 hinted at that but Book 3 completely reconned it.

My rewrite for Aang is that Sozin's Comet mirrors The Crossroads of Density. Ozai doesn't blast him with lighting right away. Aang still covers himself with rocks as Ozai attacks. There, Aang lets go of Katara and goes into the Avatar State. This is when Ozai shoots lighting at him. But unlike COD, Aang redirects the lighting. He still spares Ozai and the rest of the fight plays out like in cannon. The finale balcony Kata*ng kiss is replaced with Aang apologizing to Katara for his mistreatment of her. Katara forgives him and says she meant it when she said they would be Aang's family. They embrace and the rest of the Gaang come onto the balcony and join the hug. This would mirror the group hug at the end of the first episode of Book 3, thus coming full cycle.

Also, Katara from Avatar the Last Airbender deserved to have her trauma treated seriously and not shoved aside to become a trophy girlfriend/wife.

I would mainly have Katara and Sokka talk things out after the events of The Southern Raiders. They would realize that grief is different for each person and that's okay. Also, I would have someone stand up for Katara during The Ember Island Players. She was clearly disturbed by her portrayal and instead of her friends understanding or sympathizing with her, they agreed with the play. In fact, I would change the whole tone of the EIP episode by having it focus on propaganda and stereotypes. I would also have Zutara crumbs, but they won't confirm anything at the end of the series. I think the ending works better with a group hug.

2. Azula from Avatar the Last Airbender comics

They did her so dirty in the comics. They turned her into a literal psychopath who hallucinates and has to be restrained. To make matters worse, they replace her with a random half-sister who is perfect in every way.

I'm not sure how to fix this without rewriting the entire ATLA comics story, but the gist of it would be Azula working through her trauma and coming to terms with it.

3. Starscream and Knockout from Transformers Prime.

For most of the series, Starscream had been straight up abused by Megatron, Leader of the Decepticons. So when Starscream decided he'd had enough and left, I was rooting for him. He went rouge for a couple of episodes and was a threat to both the Autobots and Decepticons. But then he returned to Megatron??? And pledged his loyalty??? Then mourned his death??????

That made no sense! When Starscream returned to Megatron, I honestly thought he was going to try to dethrone him again but he just submitted. Last time he did that, Megatron tried to kill him in cold blood.

Hated it. Hated it. Hated it. Toxic relationship all day long.

Starscream should have stayed rouge for the entire series. That was when he was at his peak.

Knockout was the Decepticon's medic who joined the Autobots at the end of the show. I love Knockout. I loved that he switched sides. But I hate how they did it. It was so shoehorned. The Autobots had the upper hand and Knockout joined them to avoid going to prison. And they let him no questions asked despite all the trauma he caused them.

I would have had KO questioning his loyalties throughout the show. KO is treated like trash by Megatron (though not half as bad as Starscream) and is constantly looked over. The death of his lab assistant and friend, Breakdown, would have impacted him more especially since Megatron merely brushed it off. Starscream leaving also would have affected him. The final straw for Knockout would be when Dreadwing is murdered.

In the show, Dreadwing questions the honor of the Decepticons and they hint at him joining the Autobots. But he seeks out Starscream for revenge of the death of his twin brother and Megatron kills him. In this rewrite, Dreadwing shares his thoughts of honor with Knockout. He too is upset by the treatment of Breakdown's death because he was with him when he was murdered. Knockout is hesitant but Dreadwing has made up his mind about switching sides. When he goes to talk to Optimus Prime, leader of the Autobots, this is when Megatron kills him. Left alone with Megatron's abuse, Knockout is essentially locked in the ship. Later when Ratchet, the Autobot's medic, is kidnapped and forced to work for the Decepticons, he helps him escape. Ratchet notices KO's change and invites him to come along. KO finally takes the chance and switch sides for good. He proves his sincerity by exposing Megatron's Earth terraforming plans to the Bots.

4. Lotor and Allura from Voltron: Legendary Defenders

Lotor was basically Space Zuko. He hunted down team Voltron in the beginning but later joined them to stop his dictator father. It was also revealed that the father (I forgot his name) abused Lotor and forced him into villainy.

But then, the writers decided to recon all of that by saying Lotor was secretly using Team Voltron and draining the life form from a race of people thought to be wiped out by his father (that his is half of mind you). Team Voltron readily believes this despite fighting beside him for seemingly months and banish him to a different dimension where he MELTED. They actually showed his melted corpse!!! To make matters worse, they gave Haggar, his mother, a redemption! She abandoned Lotor as a child, sat by and watched his father abuse him, tried to destroy the multiverse, and only got a slap on the wrist!!!!

Honestly, I would have ended the show after Lotor and Team Voltron team up to stop the dictator. Maybe have them fight Haggar too? But Lotor definitely would have been part of the team and help rebuild the universe and marry Princess Allura.

Princess Allura pretty much brought the team together and was the heart of Voltron. She was killed off at the end to restore the universes Haggar destroyed. I'm not sure how it went down because I stopped watching the show after Season 7 but from what I read, it didn't make sense. They also forced Allura together with Lance who she has had no interest in beforehand.

I would have the Voltron lions sacrifice themselves to restore the universe. It would symbolize that their work is done and are no longer needed. Allura lives and continues to explore and help rebuild with her friends and marries Lotor.

5. Mikasa from Attack on Titan

I love Mikasa. And I love Eren x Mikasa. But I do not like how it was handled. Without getting into spoilers, Mikasa evolved her entire life around Eren despite the warnings of living solely for others that are placed throughout the manga/show.

I would have had Mikasa discover that she can love Eren but also live for herself. That it's okay to be a little selfish. She learns how to enjoy life and live to the fullest despite all the heartache and pain. In a sense, she fulfills Eren's dream of being free.

6. Chole from Miraculous Ladybug

Chole was the typical mean girl bullying the protagonist Marinette. It was later revealed that her actions stem from the emotional abuse she receives from her mother. The show flirted with the idea of giving Chole a redemption arc but then reconned it so hard and replaced her with her random half-sister. (What is it with half-sister clones?)

I would rewrite it by Chole not revealing her superhero identity to the public for fame. She does try to milk the position but gradually learns how to become a better person with the help of Ladybug and Team Miraculous.

7. Glitter from Hooves of Death

This is a webtoon about a ragtag team of unicorns and other mythical creatures trying to stop the zombie apocalypse. It's pretty good except for the weird love triangle between Sprinkles, Glitter, and Blaze. Sprinkles acts more like a father figure to Glitter, and Blaze is a freaking incel.

Glitter has made it clear, time and time again, that she's not interested in romance because they're in the middle of a zombie apocalypse. Sprinkles had the decency to respect that, but Blaze kept pushing. He sulked and acted petty literally half of the series because Glitter wasn't responding the way he wanted. In one of the recent updates, Sprinkles is comforting Glitter because she has some heavy decisions to make and Blazes yells at them then storms off. So then Glitter goes after him and he yells about caring for her so much, but she never notices him. Typical Nice Guy TM stuff. Then Glitter apologizes to him and agrees to date after the apocalypse.

Um what?

I was so close to dropping the webtoon. Honestly. That was disgusting.

I would rewrite Hooves of Death by having Sprinkles, Glitter, and Blaze act as a found family with Sprinkles as the dad and the others as siblings. This is because at the beginning of the apocalypse, Glitter lost her entire family to the zombies. In this rewrite, she's hesitant to get close to anyone again in fear of losing them but warms up to them over time. I know it's cliche, but it's loads better than this gross love triangle.

Thanks for the ask ❤

Dear Vector Prime, besides the trio of Blood, Dauros and Gilmer was ancient Earth plagued by any other Decepticon Pretenders?

Dear Pretender Peeved,

Oh, certainly—the Autobots spent centuries trying to corral them. You may already be aware of Bludgeon and his fellow Pretenders’ rampage through ancient Japan; these Pretenders ranged across the entire world, so you may be interested to learn about their feats and fates.

Bludgeon likes to claim to have taught humanity the art of war, providing weapons and armor to various groups, relishing in the bloodshed and chaos he caused. The Autobots sealed him away on many occasions, but his final sealing took place in the 10th century. He had teamed up with a sorceress who sought revenge on the slayers of her father, and her magical manipulations multiplied the mystic Metallikato might of Bludgeon's Pretender shell. He was eventually sealed away under what would eventually become the city of Tokyo.

Iguanus rampaged across early Europe, seizing whatever he could from the tribes who lived there. He was finally sealed away under Stonehenge by Metalhawk and the other Autobot Pretenders, although they never discovered Iguanus' treasure hoard—not that they made any particular attempt to reclaim his collection of trinkets, busy as they were keeping humanity safe.

Stranglehold maintained a petty kingdom in Northern Africa, using his impressive physical might and near-invulnerability to maintain control over those nearby. He especially enjoyed wrestling with humans, viewing them as pitiful challengers. In the end, one such pitiful challenger managed to defeat Stranglehold by getting him in a Cobra clutch. In shame, Strangehold abandoned his kingdom, and wound up in the crosshairs of the Autobots, who sealed him beneath the Atlas Mountains.

Carnivac and Snarler terrorized the lands of Arcadia, causing havoc and famine as they destroyed whatever civilizations tried to intrude into their wilderness domain. Their teamwork kept them undefeated until the Autobot Pretenders teamed up as well, separating and binding them between a pair of mountains.

Octopunch was the least active of the Decepticon Pretenders, preferring to keep watch over the slumbering form of his master, Devil Z. To avoid the Autobots, he ventured out only when he was in dire need of resources, raiding ships while proclaiming the might of the Decepticon god he served. In the end, the Autobots managed to lure him into a trap off the Ryukyu Islands, sealed beneath a collection of sandstones.
