    Thanks!
    They are all G1 characters (some may be G2, but the family is the same), in their Cybertronian versions, as they were imagined by artist Don Figueroa.
    Some of them, like Jazz and Bumblebee, actually retain their cybertronian alt-mode that was first seen in the first G1 cartoon episode ever ("More Than Meets The Eye", part 1).

    From the "War Within" universe, which was a comic book series produced by Dreamwave in the early 2000s.
    It was the first organized attempt at re-telling the age of the Cybertronian Civil War, detailing the events and redesigning all the G1 characters in their Cybertronian, pre-Earth versions.

    Three miniseries were written by Simon Furman, with art by Don Figueroa, Andy Wildman and Joe Ng: The War Within, vol. 1; The War Within: The Dark Ages; The War Within: The Age Of Wrath.

    The last one ("The Age Of Wrath") stopped with issue #3, because the publisher bankrupted.
    Our "Wrath Of The Ages" fancomics took care of finishing the story (using the summaries of the unpublished episodes).

    SoD universe: Magnificent Crisis

    Transformers: Seeds Of Deception presents Magnificent Crisis .

    With the Dead Universe defeated, Optimus Prime and the Autobots return to their everyday cold war against the Decepticon... but the crisis is far from over! By using the Magnificence power, Hot Rod started an irreversible universal change: when mechanoids, persons and planets begin to morph into alternate versions of themselves, who will stand up to prevent reality becoming a jumbled chaos that will ultimately self-destruct?

    Magnificent Crisis

    SoD: "Magnificent Saga" in PDF

    Transformers: Seeds Of Deception presents Magnificent Saga in PDF format.

    Collecting Magnificent Premonition, The Artifacts, Poisoned Chalice, Magnificent Crisis, this comic delves deep in the Transformers mythology of present, past and future!

    During The War Within, Optimus Prime and Megatron experienced a vision of an impossible "G1" future: in present time, during the events of Escalation, the same vision returns... showing Beast Wars, Beast Machines and even Dai-Atlas!
    From another reality, Macabre enters this one, facing Hot Rod and exposing the dire consequences of using the cursed Instrument Of Destruction known as the Magnificence.
    Before reality goes completely bad, losing any internal logic and consistency, will Hot Rod find the strength to use the Matrix Goblet and make the final sacrifice?

    The whole Magnificent Saga is now collected in one easy-to-download PDF file, featuring bonus sketch art for Rodimus Prime, and a Secret File revealing a glimpse of Rodimus Prime's future and the origin of the Unity Sceptre .

    Differentiation (act 4): Separation

    Seeds Of Deception presents Differentiation (Act 4): Manipulation.

    Astrotrain has made a deal with the devil he knows-- that is, Ratbat! But how does this creepy mechanoid plans to use his Energon-sucking skills to save Megatron from the Mini-Reaper infection that has paralyzed his systems?
    Find out now, as Differentiation leads to... Separation. Now more than ever, The Future is -Ation!

    The life and deeds of Rodimus Prime

    Transformers: Seeds Of Deception presents The True Identity of Rodimus Prime (an essay).

    At the end of Magnificent Crisis, Rodimus Prime entered the universe of Transformers: "Seeds of Deception" comics. The real Rodimus Prime, the Autobot Leader invested by the Matrix.
    But what inspired this reimagining of the character in War Within/-Ation style? It was the original >G1 counterpart-- a figure as complex and mature as was rarely or never seen in Transformers cartoons, as this article is going to explain.

    Transformers: Seeds Of Deception presents Trypticon's evolution designs for The Future Is -Ation.

    Trypticon 2.0 - Stormbringer II evolution

    After his return in Stormbringer II, Galvatron starts enlisting Decepticon warriors for his own private army (starting with the Monstructor Six and Sixshot).
    In order to salvage a certain planetary item that was stolen from Cybertron by the Quintessons, and hidden on a planet that is well known to Wheelie, Galvatron will probably have to resort to Trypticon's might... even if this means seizing the most defended Decepticon space station in the galaxy, and finding the resources to reformat it!

    Seeds Of Deception presents Differentiation (Act 2): Confrontation.

    The Infiltration Protocols have been reinstated! How do you divert the attention of the US Air Force from your own secret Bunker? By staging an assault on one of their bases and pretending you are a Cobra jet squadron, of course.
    And for the first time ever, Starscream meets his maker: will the Null Ray prove enough to stop Jhiaxus' advance, as he marches on in his plan to rewrite the galaxy in Nemesis Prime's image?

    Hold the phone, (just found this thread so if you'll permit me) is this fanmade or is this official work? Either way I love it

    Glad you like the series: it's fanmade, and based on a very specific continuity, as you can see here.

    How could it not be? I know it's fanmade but if I didn't know any better I'd swear it was genuine.
