    The jankiness of TF lore: a feature, not a bug

    I should clarify that my love for JG1 is specifically the trilogy of Headmasters, Masterforce, and Victory. Victory and Armada battle it out for my favourite Transformers show, and it really depends on my mood when you ask me. The meta stuff through the Legends manga and other assorted Takara...

    The jankiness of TF lore: a feature, not a bug

    AVP was the worst kind of fanwankery. Just stuff put out there with little to no narrative value. The term "slop" gets abused these days, but AVP was slop.

    The Ross I was at had a replica Batman Beyond batarang. There's definitely something going on there.

    The jankiness of TF lore: a feature, not a bug

    I mean... Takara conceived of Car Robots as fitting into their G1/Beast Era chronology. Hasbro paid that no mind when they imported it, treating it as its own distinct continuity with no connections to G1. That is to say, that different companies will do things differently. They're going to put...

    The jankiness of TF lore: a feature, not a bug

    I just find a lot of unjustified hostility towards the JG1 stuff to be weird. And I'm not even talking about the controversial stuff like Kiss Players or the spicy parts of the Legends manga. I'm just talking the three main shows. A LOT of Western Transformers nerds are very hostile to that...

    The jankiness of TF lore: a feature, not a bug

    As a fan of the JG1 shows (Headmasters, Masterforce, Victory) I really don't see why or how.

    The jankiness of TF lore: a feature, not a bug

    Exactly. I hate to use this term because it's been overused in geek circles, but space in Sunbow almost had a Lovecraftian angle to it. Vast, unknowable, and the peeks we get under the surface are unnerving. I'd have hints of Primus in the background but I'd lean into the "space is mysterious...

    The jankiness of TF lore: a feature, not a bug

    If I could be a nerd about things... TECHNICALLY a rogue star that's not part of a galaxy is possible, just as a planet outside of a galaxy would be. I know this was Cybertron after it had been moved.... but going off of this... ... I like the idea of Cybertron being built around something...

    The jankiness of TF lore: a feature, not a bug

    I like what you're cooking. I wouldn't be adverse to the Thirteen but I'd just have them be past Matrix bearers. Not the super special awesome children of destiny. Just have this long lineage of Primes that implies that the Matrix- and thus Cybertronian civilization is very, very old. By the...

    I assume CoffeeHorse is looking for a Grandus from anyone who can make one 😁

    The jankiness of TF lore: a feature, not a bug

    Skybound makes GI Joe and Transformers sharing the space feel more natural for a few reasons. One, they give each side some space. There are Transformers comics and GI Joe comics and while they share a universe, they're not always butting into each other. The other reason is that the Energon...

    Toy shelf head Canon

    My headcanon is that SS '86 Galvatron is Megatron after he was originally reformatted into Galvatron. Gen Selects toy colours Galvatron is Galvatron after he's regained his sanity and remember his past as Megatron. Working some Megatron colour scheming back into his look.
