I always liked the idea of Primus and Unicron being similar to Greco-Roman gods or Tolkien's Valar, embodiments of some fundamental part of the universe. Primus was the avatar of entropy, with his soul constantly splitting off parts of itself as sparks in an attempt to spread throughout the...
It actually would make sense if the roles were reversed. A human (or Nebulan) running around with a sentient gun that, with it's mechanical sensors and precise movement control, can aim better than the squishy organism holding it makes a lot of sense. Reversing that so that the meatbag is...
I guess the Targetmasters work if you have them shoulder mounted or whatever as an additional gunner, like on Stepper, but when the main robot is holding them like a handgun and pointing them where they want to shoot, I have to wonder what the Nebulon contributes.
Plus, it never really made much sense. I just can't imagine that having a smaller person be your handgun (or engine, or head, or whatever) would improve your combat abilities.
I've always liked the idea of Primus as the creator of the Cybertonian race, with the Quintessons being invaders / exploiters. Basically, they are a technologically advanced, biomechanical race that stumbles upon this metal world that seems to periodically "spit out" robotic life forms. The...
With some remolding, that Grimlock / Godzilla might have been ok. Give it a new, more Godzilla-esque dino head and some stegosaur plates and it would have been pretty interesting.
Both included good homages to the rocket base, but neither was quite what I'm imagining as a modern version of it. But, in any case, I don't think the new Micromasters were a huge hit, sales-wise, so I don't know if we'll ever get anything else in that vein again.
And that was definitely an exciting time to be Donocropolis. I would have been happy to have them keep going with Micromaster stuff with the bases all getting their own robot modes. I would have loved to get a new, Robot/Space Shuttle/Base Leader Class version of Skystalker's shuttle and a...
