Barricades Logo says Incorporated since June 1865, but Megatron was found 1897, 32 years later.

 

Actually, according to the second movie, they were on the planet since like... the beginning of man.. Just sayin..

 

yeah but those are the seekers. I meant megatrons decepticons.

 

he... LIED *crowd gasps*

 

What exactly do you mean "Barricades Logo says Incorporated since June 1865". Is this the police logo printed on the side of his altmode in the first film or a toy or what? Just curious as I don't remember seeing that.

 

You mean a Decepticon would use deception to deceive us?

Perish the thought.

 

Uh, I'm pretty sure that's stands for either

1.) When the town of the police force (That Barricade scanned for an alt. mode) was founded.
2.) When the police force was founded that Barricade used for his disguise.

 

Yes, police have been around for a while.

 

Megatron's Decepticons - Brawl, Starscream, Blackout, Frenzy, Scorponok, and Barricade - didn't arrive on Earth until the 2000's.

The Seekers, like Jetfire and Ransack, have been on Earth since The Fallen and the Primes thingy happened.

 

The 1865 date comes from the original police logo of the police car that Barricade scanned, NOT when Barricade arrived on earth. At least, that's the conclusion I've come up with after I found these:

 

Also your math is a bit off, there's not 14 years difference between 1865 and 1897.

just look at those unsightly swirl marks...didnt they know to use a thick fibered 100% cotten cloth to wash that car with?

oh the tranformers have been here for a little over 4 million years....but maybe longer IE the insecticons

 

Movieverse, not G1.

 

yeah thats because i was in a rush. I calculated it but i wroted 1879 instead of 1897. The difference is 32 years.

 

Really???  

 

what do ya mean ?? Do you think i lied ? A miscalculation can happen to everyone.

 

So?

Megatron may have been found in 1897, but that doesn't mean he landed in 1897. He could have been frozen there for a few hundred years. Barricade could have landed on Earth 32 years before Megatron's discovery in his search for either Megatron or the Allspark.

 

Banachek said they thought Megatron was frozen since the last ice age, which was around 20,000 years ago.

 

He didn't say that. He said Witwicky found Megatron first later the First Seven found the Cube in 1913. Carbon dating placed the Allspark's arrival around 10,000 BC, 12,000 years ago.

The Primes and Fallen's confrontation occurred around 17,000 BC, 19,000 years before.

This suggests the present war is at least 12,000 years old.

 

yup.
