    He bonded with the matrix when he retrieved it and he was like a prime of the old days but not called a prime but did started with calling himself Rodimus. Bot with matrix is a prime OP even asked him how it was.

    Part of me wants to see them turn IDW Star Saber into JG1 Star Saber, or just retcon the dark evangelist thing.

    If we're talking about Beast Machines, everyone was.

    You know if someone like Arcee,or Hound win I wonder if they'll have a new arch nemesis they face off against? I mean the rest or at least many of them like Primal,Star Saber,Megatron,Magnus,Shockwave etc all have their respective arch nemesis so will they also do the same for either Arcee and Hound as well? I mean I wouldn't be opposed to the idea.

    I did Primal, Magnus and Megs.

    Chaos isn't necessarily a bad thing guys. It probably just means he is anarchist or libertarian. Look at the whackos under Order. Star Saber wants a 'atheist holocaust' and Shockwave wants Technocracy. Hard to tell which Megatron this is supposed to be, but its not as if the current nice guy Megs doesn't have a history of authoritarianism himself. The folks under Honor all seemed a little too goody-goody two shoes (and why the hell was Hound on the list? Every single one of the other 8 has a bigger fanbase than he does, he cant win).

    LONG LIVE OPTIMUS PRIMAL THE NEW PRIME!!

    And here I thought civil discourse was dead on this board :rolleyes: 

    You know, I really understand your mindset, and I really do want you to get your BW revival that you think is coming, but I also want you to brace yourself since they loaded a fan favorite Victory villain (THE Victory villain) in direct competition with Primal. And if those two are even remotely split on votes, then someone like Star Saber is going to sweep. Just saying.

    I like the idea of them getting a nemesis. It also seems likely because both Optimus and Rodimus got rivals. I'm intrigued as to what Hasbro will think of. Maybe one of their competitors in the vote will serve as a nemesis?

    Or maybe either someone they had a history with in other mediums like Arcee and Airachnid were nemesises to each other in TFP or perhaps Onslaught for Hound if Hound and Onslaught are rivals in TLK or even someone new altogether. Either way it'd be a fitting tradition that's also part of the Prime linage in that regard.

    Civil discourse? I'm laughing at the fact that you're a broken record.

    Don't worry about me mate. If Star Saber or any of the other candidates win, I'll happily congratulate all who voted for them. It's just nice to have a horse in the race for a change.

    Read what I wrote. Two Victory characters might canabalize on each other's votes. Primal doesn't have to deal with that.

    Flamewar has been her nemesis in multiple fictions, and Blackarachnia/Arachnid in others. I'd love to see a mainstream release of Flamewar or a decent Arachnid figure.

    I just have this feeling the final results are going to be Arcee, Optimus Primal, Star Saber and Anyone but Hound.

    I wonder who Hound voters will vote for in such a situation? I'll be going for Arcee. She's got the personality. She's just not the underdog I am looking for.

    Pulling for Deathsaurus, but I'd settle for Optimus Primal or Star Saber, the former because I want more Beast Wars toys, and the latter because it'd be fun to see IDW try to salvage him as a character. Ultra Magnus would be pretty boring, though.

    Even if whoever wins doesn't become Prime i'd like the idea of them appearing elsewhere. One of me sorta wants the Eukaris King(Optimus Primal) on the Lost Light..or would like to see Deathsaurus and Star Saber in their own respective series..

    I guess Star Saber is getting my vote.

    I just don't understand why they chose Ultra Magnus for Honor.
