    Yeah Mang, that’s how his people are so too speak. Atleast they are consistent about it. Reminds me of a culture I belong too where we mock eachother to show respect and admiration for our differences. From an outside prospective folks would think we don’t like eachother.

    By original they could mean all g1: (tòys, comics, animation) but it could also mean animation exclusively.
    You might be right. But intent of people is not necessarily the same as actual content of the animation, which is a product of dozens and dozens of people.
    This is actually about your logic and mine. Because we interpret the same evidence differently. Blackaracchnia said that about shrapnel. During the war. So 300 years before her present time.....equals the time when shrapnel was around while the war was still on.

    Yeah me and my good friends are like that too
    .If they wanted to say cartoon exclusively I’m sure they would have
    Besides that’s Wikipedia, it’s not an official source
    In this case it is, the creators used elements of the 2 main continuities.....And even threw in one reference to the Toy line that I remember
    And do you feel it’s not possible that Sharnell lived an other 3 million years?.....after either the cartoon or comic ended?

    It’s not like we know for sure he died in either continuity. I’m not saying you’re wrong I just feel the dialogue was too vague just come to an absolute conclusion

    Hey guys, we’ve already had a request from one mod to remain on topic. Please steer it back from here.

    Thanks.

    Truth belongs to no one exclusively. Truth is bigger than one person or company.
    I am betting that wiikipedia meant animation only. Since the topic is actually animation. (Not toys or comics).
    But even despite that, the evidence itself says it is continueing the g1 animation saga. That in itself refutes all the opinions and ideas that individuals may have....includeing the late larry or bob....who are just 2 individuals. (Beast wars is actually a product of dozens of individuals.
    Irrelevant. Actual film is the superior evidence. We do not need the opinions of producers or writers. To judge the evidence for ourselves. Such things should be treated as supplements only.
    The evidence is very clear to me....but apperently not to you. 300 is not the same to 3 million. Blacharacchnia reffered to shrapnel in past tense. This may imply he was no longer alive.
    Megatron won.
    He scored more hits.
    He scored more in attempted hits
    He survived the fight.

    Prime lost
    Because he scored less hits
    He had less attempted hits
    He died and did not survive the fight.

    Prime got dead, Megatron got a sweet upgrade. Megs won big! He not only survived and thrived, he finally killed his arch enemy and a shit ton of his soldiers. Way more Autobots died in that battle than Deceptions. It was Megatrons masterstroke his "Symphony of Destruction".

    I’m going to make this sweet and short Since we have been asked to get off the side topics several times already

    You have provided absolutely nothing that proves that exclusively, Nothing

    The creators say otherwise and Hasbro says otherwise
    they are the word of God on the topic

    You contradict yourself again

    Sometime ago you said the words of the creators of the 86 film , given 20+ years after the film, Was superior evidence to what actually happened in the film

    There’s really nothing else to be said I need a topic, Anything else on those topics you wanna talk about send it to private message...if not feel free to have the last word
    but when did he die?

    “Shrapnel, that was a decepticon from the Great War 3 centuries ago”

    cartoon: the Great War was already 9 million years old by the time they wake up in 1984......and by Rebirth it didn’t look like it was over yet.And there’s a good chance shrapnel survived the 86 film

    She also pretty much contradicts the 300 your statement in another episode.Too much contradiction to make Conclusion

    Optimus lost the fight, but won the battle. Also Optimus was about to pull the trigger on Megatron before Hotrod jumped in the way.

    See, to me, that says Op won the fight. He beat Megatron down and had Megatron at gunpoint after the scrap and would've likely gunned him down once Megatron drew on him with the pistol.

    I just find it odd that the stuff with Hot Rod counts for some as being a part of the fight. But then if we're counting the aftermath, Op KO'd Megatron after taking four straight kill shots. If this were a Samurai epic, Op wins since the advancing opponent got sent home.

    Megatron lost to a non-juiced up Hot Rod despite having a Unicron-level power up. :D . He also can't shoot for shit. He missed Op twice, Hot Rod once at the base, and a ton of times inside Unicron. Seems the only way he can get a good hit in is if they stand absolutely still for him (the hostage situation) or unable to move and preferably point blank (Ironhide).

    I dissagree. The word of god was spoken by blackaracchnia herself.
    Not what i said. Re-read to get my official position.
    He obviously was gone in under 300 years.
    I interpret the great war to mean the third cybertronian war, which in cybertronian history is characterized as being faught in other words....in particular....earth.
    And as for that old topic....i believe the insecticons did survive the great war in transformers the movie.
    The only contradiction is your rebeliousness And disbeliefs.

    Also: 86 votes for Megs? That's a lot of nuts!

    Gods are the creator of the fiction....not a created character
    Not much more to say on that topic either if you wanna continue with take that part to private message also
    And that war started around the time Megatron was created, over 9 million years before 1984.

    Beast wars episode “the agenda pt2”
    BlackArachnia dialogue to Silverbolt:
    Eons before Maximals and Predacons even existed, your Ancestors the Autobots launched this Ark Containing their finest heroes

    Eons might be hard to nail down precisely but the school of science generally consider it to be about 1 billion years, and black Arachnia said EonS, Implying more than one period Of a billion years

    The ark was launched 4million years ago. And if Blackarachnia is from only 3 hundred years in G1s future, then the Maximals and Predacons came into being only 4 million and 300 years after the Ark crashed

    Sounds like a beast wars characters are from much further in the future then 300 years
    Private message.
    Back to personal judgements comments I see, sorry you painted yourself into a corner again

    Again take it to private message
