over at the club forums, i mentioned something about being confused about how starscream got back to cybertron, yet this wasn't addressed in blitzwing bop. and pete goes on to say that there's more shattered prose
QUOTE
ssg4life,

Yeah, all 4 Prose stories so far have happened before Reunification even started... The Epilogue in Do Over takes place about 6 months later and was meant to highlight the start of the Year 5 story.

So, the scene where Rodimus and Alpha Trion are talking on the comm in Reunification part 3 has not happened yet though we will see that scene in a future Prose story.

Per the Allspark's interview with S. Trent Troop and Greg Sepelak back in February:

QUOTE
AS: Also in the interview with Pete Sinclair, we were made aware of the fact that there will be 6 different artists working on the art for the Shattered Glass prose stories. Can you confirm how many stories these 6 artists will be working on for Shattered Glass?

TT: One per story. Shattered Glass is going to be one rich background.

GS: There’s some definite style experimentation going on with the various artists throughout the course of the year, which I really think is a positive. Keeps things fresh. “Do Over” brings Yuki Oshima back to art duties, since Ricochet is the main villain. I love his rendition of Ricochet from the BotCon bio card, very Joker-ish, and mixed with the mechanical detailing, it’s gorgeous stuff. “Blitzwing Bop” does have a looser, cartoony style to its art, which perfectly matches the looser, cartoony feel of the story.

In Reunificaiton, the Autobots and Decepticons all seem to have working communications and Space Bridges to from Earth to Cybertron now. I guess we will see that happening in upcoming fic.

Cool. I'm still interested in knowing what Shattered Glass Skywarp looks like / acts like, as we know of Shattered Glass Starscream & Thundercracker, but not Skywarp. We even know of Dirge too.

Skywarp probably has no sense of humor, is white and blue and can turn intangable or something.

I find it interesting that Hot Rod has Skywarp colors, and Cyclonus has Hot Rod colors. So perhaps Skywarp is Cyclonus in this universe since the 3H Wreckers and IDW 1986 Movie establish Bombshell as Cyclonus?

I'd prefer Skywarp to be a separate entity.

Maybe he's in his Machine Wars colors?

Anyone ever make anything of this? Love to see it!

I'm slightly more eager to see more of the SG prose works - when can we expect "Transhuman" and that (so far as I'm aware) unnamed sixth story?

"Transhuman" and "Ultimate Salvation". (I think the notion that there was an "unnamed" SG story referred to the 2009 end-of-year bonus story, that people assumed would be SG-related but turned out to be "At Fight's End" instead.)

Plus apparently we're getting an SG Cyclonus story now, too. If we have to get a Cyclonus story, I can only hope it involves the situation that made him hate SG Ultra Magnus, as getting to see SG Magnus in a story would be so worth it.

I hope SG Magnus is a purposed Nemesis Prime, because I dunno if I want to shell out for a reissue Diaclone Powered Convoy.

Actually, what might work is repurposing Laser Ultra Magnus. Sometimes you can be the same colors, y'know! Or, hey, just plain ol' Laser Optimus Prime.

If it comes to that, spend the extra bit of cash and go for the original. The swirly metallic plastic of the reissue just doesn't look as good, IMO icon-waspy.gif

Extra bit of cash? Dude, the reissue is apparently $600 on eBay, if you're lucky enough to find one. How much extra cash are we talking about?

Well, I paid a grand total of $50 for my original Diaclone Powered Convoy. But I think I got REALLY lucky icon-fire.gif

I paid $80 for my reissue Powered Convoy... Granted that was like 9 years ago now.

I'd be happy with them using the Universe Deluxe Ultra Magnus with Over-Run as his Targetmaster companion (Some SG characters share their G1 colors after all!) Have the Targetmaster be a time-stopping gun. He shoots people, they freeze in time, and then he says "yeah, I have time for this now!"
