Now I want to see an ironhide design that goes with that angle it just sounds amazing

 

If that was the case then what was ratchet’s battle sled meant to represent?

 

Not an official answer, but I view it as effectively being a gurney.

 

That and repair supplies

 

If no Autobots in the Animated universe have names prior to going through boot camp, what the hell do they call each other beforehand?

 

They just make sure to never need to say their name during conversations.
Totally not speaking from experience of not remembering the names of people who are talking to me.

 

"Hey, you."

 

You know, I never thought of that before, but that is dumb. I think every Cybertronian should already have a name and not something like "B-127" or some such nonsense.

 

"...Out there in the cold, getting lonely, getting old, can you feel me?..."

 

You just reminded me of this exchange from Gargoyles:

TOM: I’m Tom. What’s your name?
GARGOYLE #1: Except for Goliath, we don’t have names.
TOM: How do you tell each other apart?
GARGOYLE #1: We look different.
TOM: But what do you call each other?
GARGOYLE #2: (shrugs) Friend.

But of course it didn't last and Gargoyle 1 is Lexington while Gargoyle 2 is Brooklyn.

 

Always love to see a Pink Floyd reference

 

"You're finally awake. You were trying to cross the border, right? Walked right into that imperial ambush. Same as us. And that thief, over there."

 

Don’t know what that’s a reference to

 

Skyrim.

 

I think there was a reference in the BW episode to his spark travelling through time & space. I always just assumed it happened before Ghost in the Machine - Starscream's spark drifted back in time, then forward again.

 

What's tfwiki's beef with JaAm? It was just a silly edit and nothing more. Did they have to go as far as to ruin one of the best jokes on the wiki?

 

The JaAm edit is at the very best incredibly cringe early 00s humor. At the worst not something I particularly feel like getting into on this board. Either way it honestly deserves to stay in the past and any reference to it should be met with a slowly shaken head and a sigh.

 

Exactly what I was alluding to earlier

 

I laugh at the stupidest crap, so it's no wonder "WhY mY shOuLdErS hUrT?" or "I want you to find my feet I can't seem to see them" make me burst out laughing. But if I had been old enough to get into the Tf community around the time JaAm was a thing, I might have grown to feel the same as you do.

 

Not all of you seem to have read the whole comic. There's a couple vulgar-for-the-time jokes in there that these days probably wouldn't track or fly at all.

But it's just a stupid fanzine it's fine who cares.
