    Hoist alway wanted to be actor but when war started, he and many other were drafted to the war and hoist would learn and become a Engineer alongside his best pal grapple. The two join the ark and the battle above earth, both of them got on Stacte podsand fell down into earth for couple mouth. The two are sleeping but are Woken up by the Constructicons who Brainwash them into thinking they are the decepticons before the autobots save them and return them back into themselves.

    In end of the war, hoist would become actor alongside grapple of making art and media.

    I'd love to see Sky Lynx return to a TF series, any TF series, and just be written normally. I'd write him as he was in the G1 cartoon, arrogant, egotistical, etc, but make no mention of the way he looks. The humour and charm of Sky Lynx comes form the fact that he looks so weird and is so unconventional and yet everyone just accepts him as normal. Especially among Autobots. His appearance isn't his gimmick, his personality is, it's just even more amusing coming from a guy who by no human measure embodies the image of a stereotypical egotist. (and yet despite his ego rarely, if ever, puts anyone else down unless it's the Predacons)

    I'd also like to see just one TF series where Hot Rod develops into Rodimus Prime and actually takes the leader role from Optimus, either because Optimus dies or simply steps. I'd actually prefer the latter, since I think a story where Optimus steps down for whatever reason but assumes a less active mentor role for Rodimus, sharing his wisdom and advice form experience as being a leader. That way you have Rodimus replace Optimus' position, but not replacing his character. (I also find Kup a far less authentic mentor) I always thought, back in G1, they should've taken advantage of Ultra Magnus' toy sharing the cab portion of Optimus and had Prime end up critically injured instead of dying, and the trailer armour is almost like life support or just a way for him to keep fighting while Rodimus takes over as leader. Then you have that character continuity whilst still maintaining Rodimus as the new commander.

    I'd probably write Waspinator as a crouching dumbass hidden badass. The whole goofy comic relief "Whyyyy Uuniverzzzzze hate Wazzzzpinatorrr?" thing would actually be an act so everyone underestimates him, and in reality he's a machiavellian criminal mastermind on par with a classic James Bond villain, the real puppet master behind the likes of Megatron or Cryotek.

    So for Starscream, I would model his personality on Satan and Lex Luthor. He used to be a powerful and beloved Autobot Senator who rebels when he loses to Optimus in the election for Prime. After his rebellion is crushed, he defects to the Decepticons out of spite, believing the Autobots deserve to be eradicated for failing him. The fact that Starscream of all bots could betray the Autobots so thoroughly was a massive blow to Autobot morale. This, together with the devastation brought about by Starscream's rebellion, left the Autobots powerless to prevent Megatron from completely overrunning the Commonwealth. Starscream believes the rules only apply to lesser beings and cowards too afraid to rise up and take what they want. He prides himself on his descent from the ancient Dynasty of Primes and looks down on bots of more modest manufacture such as Optimus Prime and Megatron. Though his allegiance has changed, his ambition has not, and now he entertains notions of ruling the Decepticons. But this time, he has learned his lesson and is far more subtle in his treachery. Starscream corrupts everything he touches and has brought many a bot to ruin through temptation and persuasion with his silver-plated vocal processor.

    This is how I'd write a Composite Character of Beast Era Megatron/Galavar, Unicron Trilogy Megatron, and Unicron Trilogy Unicron, Copied from here: How would you write a tf villain

    Vartronus
    : Vartronus is pure evil plain and simple he's charismatic and charming but all this does is mask his true horrifying and above all sadistic personality he's gone by many aliases such as: Gnashteeth, Galavar, Omnicron, Unicron, etc. His goal's to ascend to godhood, conquer the universe, and perpetually torture it and he has ever growing zergs of troops and armadas to help him accomplish this task.

    I always like the idea that Red Alert was so super paranoid all the time because of his extra-sensory systems would keep him on edge because he could detect just about everything around him, making him far too aware of every single indiscretion from anyone and everyone even vaguely near him. I figure him being partnered with Inferno who is so gung-ho at his job and over-eager to get into a fight was a deliberate move from high command to curb Red's paranoia and give him something to focus on so he wasn't wasting energy and resources trying to keep on top of every microscopic nuance of any operation he's a part of. Whether that ends up working in the long run or just leads him down a dark path of over-compensation during his limited free time is yet to be determined...

    I know people hates OCs, but here how I'll write this OC of Sky Convoy I came up with:

    Sky Convoy: In the year 2093 of Universe-698, Sky Convoy stands as the Autobot Convoy of the Autobot Federal Forces, who is filled with hope and determination to heal a world shattered by the Great Cybertronian Civil War. Sky Convoy dedicates himself to helping others, working tirelessly to restore peace and rebuild the lives of those affected by the devastation.

    Yet, beneath his strong exterior lies a secret not for the faint of heart. Back during the Great Cybertronian Civil War the coflict has escalated so badly that the Autobots had to create mindless, disposable Autotroopers that swarm the battlefield with only one thing in their programming - exterminate any Decepticons, no matter the cost. and Sky Convoy, formerly known as one of these mindless Autotroopers under the name AT-1307.

    But everything changed when AT-1307 made a choice that defied his programming. During a mission to save innocent civilians, he was gravely injured and left for dead. Just when hope seemed lost, a group of brave volunteers—both Cybertronians and human—found him. They saw the spark of life still flickering within him, but it was damaged beyond repair. To save him, they built a new body, giving him a second chance at life, but at a great cost.

    Now, as he awakens in this new form, he learns that the war has ended, and he is one of the very few who survived. After a long recovery and rehabilitation that helped him regain some basic control of his body, he returned to the Autobot ranks as a new cadet named Furai. Under the guidance of a strong female human Lieutenant, Mikaela Faireborn, who had a keen sense of people. Mikaela supported Furai throughout his training, teaching him how to cope with his cybernetic form and the responsibilities of being a hero. She became a loving mentor, helping him learn to care for others and embrace a brighter future. But just as he began to find his way, his past came crashing back when his former superior, now a dangerous criminal, returned seeking revenge. In a heartbreaking confrontation, Furai witnessed Mikaela's death, forced to end her suffering himself.

    Consumed by rage and grief, Furai turned on Impactor, his former superior. Just as he was about to unleash his fury, he remembered Mikaela’s teachings and hesitated. But it was too late; he struck Impactor down in a fit of hatred, using the very weapon Mikaela had once wielded. This event shatters Furai completely, leaving him as just a hollow, traumatized version of his former self, who had loses all his reasons to care about the Autobot Federal Forces' heroic cause. This drives him back to being the emotionless killing machine he once was. He pushes away all the friendships he had built, becoming a lone "one-man army" Autobot. Even as he rises through the ranks due to his skills, it all feels meaningless now.

    Everything changes when a freak accident teleports him to another universe, Universe-1178's Earth, along with a small group of Autobots. To make matters even more complicated, Furai learns that Delta Convoy, his predecessor, has chosen him to be the next "Convoy," now named "Sky Convoy." In this strange new adventure, Furai, now Sky Convoy, and his new band of Autobots form deep friendships and bonds... only for Sky Convoy and his mismatched band of heroes to soon find themselves as the last line of defense against an ancient genocidal A.I. of Universe-1178's Earth.

    As he opens up to his new friends—both Autobots and humans—Sky Convoy shares the painful story of his life. When he finishes, tears stream down his face, filled with shame for the monster he believes he is. He feels unworthy of friendship, heroism, or even the title of Convoy.

    But his allies refuse to let him drown in despair. One by one, they gather around him, offering comfort and sharing in his sorrow. They remind him that despite his past, he has always been willing to fight for what is right. His actions, driven by a genuine desire to lead the Autobots and protect Earth, have already saved countless lives and inspired those around him to be better.
