    To "transform" into Humans....


    Megs for some reason needs the cons to masqerade as humans to infiltrate a human base-suprise is required.

    Autobots realize this somehow and have their own holo tech and send Arcee and Jack in as a team...

    That would be interesting.

    I'm confused about how this would work. Wouldn't they still be too huge for the base?

    I was thinking some sort od special holograms like the ones star trek uses on the holodeck, and they would have some sort of device on them to not be detected as bots or cons. They would be human size.

    "Rafael, you seem to have grown by a substantial amount all of a sudden!"

    *Speaks in raspy Megatron voice*
    "Don't worry Optimus, all humans instantly grow 35 feet tall when they turn 12 and three quarters!"

    Star Trek's holodeck was used by the humans on board--and they knew it was fictional, doubtful that it could fool Transformers who could easily "scan" the holo-humans for anomalies resulting in discovery.

    what happened to "suspension" of disbelief..lol.


    I was thinking somewhat along the lines of "Autobot Spike" from G1 but in reverse. An Autobots mind and brain for some reason need to be transfered to a human....

    or the holgram idea.

    Would just be cool to have the bots human for part of an ep...

    all kidding aside, I would like to see what the Bots and Cons look like as humans. Animated pulled off showing the Bots' human forms quite well, and they were all neat, so why not?

    The only arguments for why not is, how freakishly odd Bumblebee would be mute.

    A spin off:

    It would be neat if someone would have hologram capabilities but otherwise no.

    If they were to use holograms, it'd probably be in a limited variety the way Arcee uses Sadie. They would be in vehicle mode and they would project a representative hologram into or close to themselves to interact with objects or people (they could talk directly to humans without raising alarm this way if they needed to) and the holograms would, of course, sound just like they do.

    I'd die happy if they all used holo-drivers and Optimus has a 3D Peter Cullen behind the wheel. Sorry kids, but Jack aside, you don't really make convincing drivers for maintaining a disguise.

    This. Peter Cullen as a 3D model driving Optimus would be an awesome easter egg!
