    Who's have we not seen (in either Cybertron or GF)? Discuss.

    I'm actually really disappointed that we didn't see either Roadstorm (Lugnutz) or Autovolt (Smokescreen/Crosswise) transform in a stock sequence. Especially the latter - Autovolt/Smokescreen/Crosswise is arguably the coolest Autobot in the show.

    ^Both Roadstorm and Autovolt had stock transforms.

    Terrashaver did not, nor did, Armbullet, Dark Liger Jack, Galvatron, Soundwave, Inch-up, or Autolander

    Roadstorm's occured in the episode where him and Chromia first engaged the Autobots. I can't remember which episode exactly.

    Autovolt had stock ffotage during one of the episodes where ther were farting around on Primus, before heading to Gigilonia. Again I can't remeber which episode exactly. But I do remember Super Starscream getting stock footage in the same episode.

    (sorry I'm a little drunk right now. I'll check my GF episodes tomorrow to be sure.)

    I find that list pretty surprising. Granted, Terrashaver, Autolander and Inch Up were only minor characters, appearing in their respective arcs, but what really surprises me is Galvatron and Soundwave. I guess we can chalk that up to their limited screen time? In fact, do any of the Destrons have stock transformations in the last dozen or so episodes?
    Also, there's no stock footage for the standard "Rumble" drone, only "Coby's Rumble".

    Right, I had forgotten Autolander and didn't even think of Dirt Boss. I think I'm vaguely remembering Roadstorm's now, but still drawing a blank on Autovolt's.

    I could swear Dirt Boss had one. In the Ep he first showed up in, or the one after.

    Inch-up's had Force chip stock animations, but never had a Transformation stock animation.

    I for one, am very disappointed that Master Megs/Galv never got a stock Transformation animation into robot mode :thumbdown

    I don't think Skids had one. But I'm only on episode 41 so between there and the end he might have one. I certainly don't remember one in the Speedia episodes.

    He did once, while Excellion was practicing and he was about to crash into a wall. Skids transformed from car to robot mode and then used his force chip ignition, both with stock footage.

    Some of the TF sequences I like but I prefer when they Transform with the real back grounds like they did in G1 and Beast Wars.

    Wha? No stock transformation sequence for Soundwave?!? Such a tragedy.
