The Allspark’s comments


This comic was originally part of Transformers Generations 2012. Besides introducing a slew of previously US-only characters into the Japanese G1 continuity, it also answers this old, puzzling question: "What were the Autobot Pretenders up to during the 8000 year period between when they crashed on Earth and when they showed up in Masterforce?" We now know the answer--They were doing pretty much the same thing they did in Masterforce: defending humans against giant Decepticon Pretender Monsters, blending into human society, and of course, picking up chicks!
