Wait, now the whole universe is at stake? I thought the Preds wanted just the galaxy?!
Anyway, had to dig a little bit, but one I remember going to once upon a time was Planet Sabretron... and it's still around!

My gosh... Is that the one that used to load the sound file every time the front page reloaded? I remember it sounded like "This is a Cybertron" and three different Transformers characters would voice the "Cybertron" part in a row?Anyway, had to dig a little bit, but one I remember going to once upon a time was Planet Sabretron... and it's still around!
Earth was formed from particles gathered by the sun's gravity. So yes, actually, it sort of did.The sun created Earth?
I... don't recall that. ^^;My gosh... Is that the one that used to load the sound file every time the front page reloaded? I remember it sounded like "This is a Cybertron" and three different Transformers characters would voice the "Cybertron" part in a row?
Orrrr maybe I'm thinking of another site with a similar name.
But for how much longer, it must be asked:The Obscure Transformers Website is still up: http://s90690880.onlinehome.us/jhiaxus/
Bumping this to say thanks for finding this. I've been wanting to track down this old site for some time, now.Anyway, had to dig a little bit, but one I remember going to once upon a time was Planet Sabretron... and it's still around!
Cybertron... a prehistoric Earth?

Simon Furman regards Beast Wars as taking place in his comic universe
(according to an interview in the Transforce 2000 magazine, he ignores Beast
Machines entirely). His own post-BW storyline is Reaching the Omega Point
(the BotCon stories).
I don't think that he was dead, either. 'cause he said he wishes he could be

Simon commented on this issue at the convention I'm told. There is indeed
a differance between entering J'nwan and becoming one with the Matrix.
J'nwan is a Valhalla like plane of existance entered into while still
alive by a dimensional gate. (This would be the 'Silicon Valhalla' Dinobot
refered to in Beast Wars.) However, one joins the Matrix by simply dying.
He was very specific that they were seperate things. Whether or not they
can return from J'nwan to the mortal plane, however, is up to Simon
himself. (Or of course fanfic writers. ;-)
As far as I'm concerned this whole thing is HIS sandbox. Hasbro just comes
along once a year & breaks all the toys, and he creates new masterpieces
based on the carnage they leave behind. ;-)
Simon suggested to me that he worked with Jeff Anderson to redesign Optimus
Prime for the story. As this story is set a LONG time after Primes last
appearance, it made sense that he had evolved further. Neither Megatron or
Prime have downsized to Maximal/Predacon size though, they are both original
size.
