    Another one, based on a casual comment someone made years ago:

    Movie Bumblebee was the very last sparkling born to survive to adulthood and thus why, for a long time, the Autobots were protective of him. He is also one of the few Autobots or Decepticons to never know Cybertron not at war, thus why he loves earth.

    BW Dinobot is Slash. I see Slash watched his fellow Dinobots go extinct and seeing Grimlock gone depressed him into a life of crime. He joined Megatron and his Predacons. However going to Earth and seeing Megatron as a oppressor angered Dinobot because it wasn't the way he was trained. He joined the Maximals because it was the honorable thing to do and would be in honor of Grimlock.

    With LG13 Megs being the first tank Megs I actually really love, I'd like to amend my head canon to also include:

    Galvatron's insanity necessitated the forcible capture and reformatting of same back into Megatron, and when doing so, he became a tank.

    That's not really the best reasoning to do so. If every Transformers was based on their chests...we'd have a lot more fembots..now wouldn't we?

    The TF Collection Command Structure is
    -G1 Optimus (reissue): Elder Statesman
    -MP 01 Optimus (US version): Senior Prime, makes all decisions, absentee, due to Die Cast parts and not wanting to get damaged
    -MP 10 Optimus (Re issue, US package), Leader Class Megatron (G1): Duo Leaders, combined factions (similar to Findie Country), make big decisions
    -Leader Class Ultra Magnus, Weaponizer Optimus Prime, Beast Fire Predaking: Enforcers or the House Rules. Ultra Magnus when going into vehicle mode shifts Ambus into Subspace remote zone (since there is no storage for Minimus Ambus in Vehicle mode)
    -Classics Prime, Henkei Megatron: Faction Leaders

    Villains
    -Nemesis Prime (Universe), The Fallen, Murderbee (DOTM Cyberfire Bee), DOTM Deluxe Starscream, Skywarp, Thundercracker, DOTM Shockwave
    -Animated Leader Class Ultra Magnus (still have to purchase him): Zealot, believer in "Leader Class gives Divine Right to Lead Theory" that Collectiwar's Magnus believed in.-Sideways: Part Time Unicron Herald, Full Time Syndicate Head
    -Unicron
    -BW Megatron: Desperate to reclaim role as the primary Megatron, recruited Energon Megatron
    -Armada Megatron (will either use original version or Leader Class)
    -Devil Gigatron: Highly unhinged Predacon, slew God Magnus and put Fire Optimus in irreversible coma. Imprisoned.

    The Thirteenth Prime is a different popular character in each continuity. Soundwave is the Thirteenth Prime in IDW G1 (read his spotlight issue in ex-RID. His amnesia is really reminiscent of how Optimus behaved in TFP when his memories were lost)

    Several things in my head canon

    Idw Optimus was the 13th prime, see when he awakens metroplex in autocracy, metroplex says something along the lines of I knew you long ago Orion pax, but by a different name.

    Until recently I had idw drift as tigatron pre beast wars but now that tigatron has been revealed as a separate character in idw that's out the window

    White cab Magnus was always minimus ambus.

    That's....brilliant.

    Hell Soundwave could actually be Logos Prime whose design was based on Galaxy Force Soundblaster.

    Wolfang is a Double-Agent, like (Counter)Punch, but is ridiculously ineffective at his job. His "Predacon" form acts heroically and makes it very obvious that he is writing down anything told to him to take back to the Maximals, while his "Maximal" form sits in the corner, scheming and mumbling to himself, when he isn't trying to steal info from data-logs right in front of other Maximals.

    He's so bad that they actually give him top-secret information to take back to the opposite faction, but they never take him seriously when he says he has confidential information. He's more of a decoy rather than an actual double agent, but he doesn't know that.

    Tarantulas in my continuity is
    a transexual...he operated on himself to change his own gender just to one up Jhaxius out of spite.

    It's probably a dumber idea than what Furman tried to do.

    That's a little weird but for some reason I could see that happen.

    I wonder if Tratantulas was hot as a girl.

    He wouldn't.

    He'd have a male VA sounding very effeminate...someone like Charlie Adler or bring back Alec Willows.

    Optimus Primal before being a science officer nerd was a simple generic soldier and his biggest military victory was when he defeated the decepticon Bludgeon (got the idea based on the mace/flail weapon Primal came with) when he struck him with his mace and decapitated him, dotm megs style. Hence earning the title "Primal"

    Unicron trilogy, RID, Animated , AND ROTF Sideways are all infact the same character and except when he travels to beast wars universe.......there he's known s Tarantulas

    When I was younger, my Stunticons weren't exactly Decepticons. They were more of a mercenary team who specialised in the dangerous kind of cargo transport. Didn't care, Autobot or Decepticon, who needed what where, they just got it there intact, no matter what.
