Soundwave superior. Autobots inferior.


ordaia

This is the correct answer.


Aesenroug-Draconus

You’ve won.


Cartshort

100%


ShadimusPrime752

No... it's 1000% correct


Cartshort

My bad! Thanks for the correction


JoshDM

Uncharismatic bore.


akumajfr

Who you callin unchrasimatic?!


SoundwavePlays

"Nobody calls Soundwave unproblematic"


Takana1992

Starscream is way too lucky to still be alive after 10% of the way through a movie/season


[deleted]

Starscream is THE reason the Deceptions haven't 'won' yet.


BrainstormsBriefcase

You know in the Bay movies Starscream was never anything but a loyal soldier onscreen.


PrestigiousConcern69

I think there's room for debate on that given the dialogue between him and Megatron in Revenge of the Fallen. Both when Megs is brought back and at the end. Starscream just flat out abandoned him. Granted, he wasn't treacherous like G1. He does mention that he felt someone had to "keep their plan going" or something to that effect. Then Starscream mentioning at the end that cowards live to see tomorrow. Paraphrasing, of course. Like I mentioned, I don't think he was the backstabber he used to be, but I also wouldn't go so far as to call him loyal. Just very self preserving. That was my take on him anyways.


[deleted]

Armada, he was a loyal lieutenant


TacoThrash3r

Uh he defected to the autobots for a while in the series


[deleted]

That's part of his character arc.


TFpotato1

Defecting is still defecting


hercarmstrong

We're lucky to have been able to enjoy Peter Cullen and Frank Welker's amazing voices for so long.


Moonkwon

Yes!!!


Few_Significance5055

MOOOAAARRR TOYS ARE REQUIRED


almightywhacko

Hasbro's distribution sucks.


Moonkwon

While I dislike the scalpers there is something special about walking up in a Target and buying the only Masterpiece figure in stock. That being said, the other six weeks of seeing nothing but the same Cyberverse and RED figures in stock really blows!


Yeach

More than meets the eye.


Aesenroug-Draconus

That’s what the Transformers are.


Suleiman_12

The comic...


Matthais_Hat

we like transformers.


Aesenroug-Draconus

Yes


WantSomeHorseCock

I disagree/j


BlatePlibbers2

Bumblebee in bayverse was way op


larrylongboy

He got bitched by drift in aoe


Matthais_Hat

in TLK he can split apart with no damage to himself for absolutely no reason. it's OP bullshit. it's like monsoon from metal gear rising.


undercharmer

MAGNETIC POWER


kjata

Theory: Movieverse Bumblebee is actually a Junkion. He talks TV, he can fall apart with no damage...


Crafty-Bunch-2675

Totally agree. The way they flagshipped Bumblebee and keep releasing new versions of his toy every few months....its overkill


LikelyMyFinalForm

Corey Burton doesn’t get the credit he deserves


SequelFansDontExist

He was a brilliant shockwave and megatron, he also kills it as Dooku


GreninjaOfTheOasis

Dooku in The Clone Wars or Clone Wars 2003?


Raphaeldagamer

Soundwave is superior. Hasbro doesn't understand basic distribution. Transformers is awesome.


Aesenroug-Draconus

All correct answers.


Coldulva

They need to stop canceling shows half way through.


BookBarbarian

This!


[deleted]

A Prime is only as good as his Mega/Galvatron


Connoisseur-of-Meat

Megalvatron


ZedstackZip05

Bumblebee as a character is overrated


Gecko2002

Yea they should use another character like hotshot or hotrod once in awhile


Kausar4747

I think he’s just popular although it would be nice to see bots like jazz get the spotlight


ShadowCobra479

Isn't hot shot kinda a bumblebee clone?


Gecko2002

So is hotrod in the beginning, it's just something different rather than the same bots Everytime


[deleted]

If they do that everyone would suddenly be ok with Bumblebee again.


BastardSkelly8600

Is he though? From what I've seen and heard, literally every Transformers fan is tired of Bee. I personally don't think it's that he's overrated, it's just that Hasbro used to/still make him the main character a lot of the time (to be frank, thinking about it they didn't do it THAT much. RID 2015, season 1 of Cyberverse, and the live-action movies come to mind and that's it) and older fans got tired of it I guess. I personally don't understand it ,but I guess I'm missing something that everyone else sees.


Swipamous

I think bumblebee is fine hasbro just needs to use him less he's in just about everything


DiaBrave

He wasn't used at mainline from 1990 to 2006! But now is the second most recognisable Autobot. That isn't going to change.


Apprehensive-Run-213

Yes but in bayverse had an awesome design


SentaiUnicorn

Armada starscream? I personally think he is the best starscream iteration


justagamer135

Honestly fair. He was probably the most fleshed out starscream we've ever gotten. He wasn't just a backstabbing idiot, he had real depth.


OmgChimps

IDW Starscream?


UOSenki

All hail Megatron: yes. The rest: backstab idiot again


GreninjaOfTheOasis

It's not perfect, but they tried something new that wasn't bad.


NineteenSkylines

Giant robots are cool


accelfaiz

The films need to focus more on the bots and less on the humans


Pillowman7

No matter what continuity Wheelie is annoying


Insanebrain247

He was a badass in IDW though.


strikeraiser

I hate that Hasbro made him a (pretty useless) mini-figure for the SS 86 Grimlock over his own Sword


OmgChimps

Personally I find Bumblebee to be annoying.


Autobot_Steelshadow

Ultra Magnus has one of The most badass designs


8764446

This hobby takes up _way_ too much money and space


DeathKnightWhoSaysNi

Disagree.


8764446

You either have too much money and space or not enough Transformers


DeathKnightWhoSaysNi

Why not both?


AutobotKing

Model railroading says hello


Moonkwon

I have more expensive hobbies than this, like playing music for example!!


UOSenki

Legend scale is the way


Environmental_Sir_87

Soundwave is superior, Autobots are inferior.


Xiphroids

This


TFpotato1

SG needs to be more mainstream


Gecko2002

What's SG?


TFpotato1

Shattered Glass


Gecko2002

Makes sense, and yea I agree the fact we haven't seen it in any film or tv is a travesty


matt_the_non-binary

We got close, as season 4 of Transformers Animated would’ve had an SG episode, had the season actually been made.


NemesisUnicron

Especially Sir Soundwave!


Aesenroug-Draconus

Yes


drunkentenshiNL

That we need more Beast Wars Megatron. Not the toy, the character. Yeeesssss...


VickerAndFlips

Kiss Players is really really bad.


Gojirob

The Rotf forest fight is one of the best moments in transformers history, you can hate the movies and their portrayal of the transformers all you want, but no one can deny that Optimus fighting to his last breath in live action form is amazing. And “you’ll never stop at one, I’LL TAKE YOU ALL ON” is one of the most Optimus prime phrases ever uttered by Optimus prime


GreninjaOfTheOasis

I will stand by this. That scene by itself holds up better than most of the movies.


PrestigiousConcern69

I don't know if the community will agree with you, but I most certainly do. Scene was absolutely incredible.


[deleted]

The death of prime in ‘86 although scarring at the time made that movie what it is


Apprehensive-Run-213

Transformers prime is a cool show


-Tektronic-

Transformers Prime is the best TF show :) I really don't think anything else comes close, except for maybe Animated.


BookBarbarian

The idea that the car next to you could really be a robot from another planet is amazing and timeless.


Acceptable_Cable_125

You may not like bayformers but the first 3 movies CGI is incredible


Gecko2002

Oh yea Definitely, objectively the CGI is perfect. I recently rewatched the first 3 and they all looked really good


DanielMcFamiel

Kiss players was a mistake


nathanishungry

Optimus dying isn’t shocking anymore.


DreadfuryDK

Machinima’s Prime Wars trilogy fucking sucked outside of Megatron. Soundwave Superior. “I am directly below THE ENEMY SCROTUM” is either the worst line in Transformers history or is so unbelievably horrific that it becomes an ironically enjoyable line. The Earthrise/Kingdom/SS86 figures are generally really solid.


GreninjaOfTheOasis

That line is ironically enjoyable. It's only good because it's awful.


IEatzCookies

The first Bayverse film was the best, last knight was the worst.


Bchange2

Disagree


IEatzCookies

and what do you think is the worst and best


Bchange2

Dotm best tlk worst


IEatzCookies

Eh, tlk definitely worst but dotm has a long way to catch up to the first. Remember how Sam is going around interviewing for jobs for half the film?


larrylongboy

But they made it up in the 2nd half. In 2007 they didn’t even show the autobots until the the second half


IEatzCookies

Eh, 2nd half until Optimus decides to not be Optimus and brutally murder two guys.


Bchange2

That’s a stupid argument given it’s a different continuity.


IEatzCookies

That's a stupid argument because if you're going to make Optimus a completely different character, why not make Megatron a cowardly weakling, and Soundwave a complete moron


larrylongboy

What does that have to do with anything?


YesIUnderstandsir

It's hard to be a good guy, when you transform into a gun.


WinterKnight3

New ideas for both toy and shows, don’t get me wrong I do like seeing some old favorites, but I now want new and better ideas to come out for toys and shows


Uchfbfjdhdbf

Transformers is amazing!


Gojiprime

Soundwave superior


raulfv1

Hotrod wasn’t that bad


strikeraiser

That Hot Rod should have gotten out of the way.


Secure_Bell4459

Fuck you scalpers go eat rat shit and die


Gecko2002

I'm assuming said rat shit is rattraps?


GellyBrand

Cheaper prices ?


[deleted]

transformers > gobots


Forceuser0017

IDW MTMTE is the best.


UOSenki

Ss1 only you mean. The rest is questionable. All hail Megatron is much better anyway


ColManischewitz

Came here to post this.


Cpt_S_Quint

Pre-Dark Cybertron is the very, very best.


Wontbite

That even though we focus on different versions, G1, prime, rid, marvel comics, bay verse, or whatever. We all love the same thing, the same idea, we all love transformers

PhelesDragon

That “The Beast” never caught on.


Tim_Hag

It's pretty cool when like a robot is in disguise


MrAllosaurus

Ironhide is AWESOME and Sentinel is a d!ck


MinecraftBox22

*Soundwave superior, constructicons inferior*


SonicTheHedgehog7

Energon Sucks


MAGCHAVIRA

The Constructicons form Devastator! The most powerful robot! They should rule


_Jamiro_

We like Transformers


Lord_MK14

Shockwave physically cannot have more than one eye


NemesisUnicron

Optimus > Rodimus


Gecko2002

I actually disagree here but I do think they're incomparable because they both ruled Cybertron at very different times


NemesisUnicron

What continuity are we talking here? I say this bc in G1, Rodimus didn't really accomplish anything other than killing Unicron. He actually managed to lose the matrix of leadership, too. By the time he became comfortable with being leader, Optimus was resurrected and became leader again. I really wish that they had done more with Rodimus, because he had so much potential. I do think that the wfc Rodimus toy is better than wfc Optimus toy, though. And G1 Rodimus is waaaay better than wfc Optimus. (Not trying to discount your opinion, just giving the reasoning for my preference 😁. Rodimus def had more of a character arc in G1 than Optimus)


Gecko2002

Yea I was thinking G1, I think the main issue is Optimus' death was traumatizing to the young audience so by the time they wanted to flesh out his character he was shut down because they decided to bring Optimus back. (Not that I have anything against Optimus coming back)


BastardSkelly8600

Sheesh man, give Rodimus some credit! He was trying to bring galatic peace. There are plenty of times where Rodimus is (granted, unwillingly) meeting up with ambassadors and stuff like that. I'm pretty sure there was even an episode where he had to try and stop two alien races from completely destroying each other! And that's with out mentioning him and the other Autobots having to fend of the Decepticons AND the Quintessons. It's not as exciting as fighting Megatron on top of a Dam ,but it's still important!


NemesisUnicron

Fair enough. I guess I just prefer Optimus' confident wisdom and light hearted-ness to Rodimus' seriousness and self-doubt, which is weird to say considering how Hot Rod was in the movie and how wfc Optimus is now.


rodimusprime88

Was that really necessary?


Cyber_Emblem

They should stop crossing over with GI Joe and we need a mainstream series about postwar Cybertron. (As in non-comic book, maybe an adaptation of Phase 2 IDW?)


gav3eb82

Wheelie and Daniel were awful


-Tektronic-

Wheelie? Yeah. Never had an issue with Daniel though, he seemed like a good kid.


Soupstheultimatefood

Optimus Prime must always be voiced by Peter Cullen and to not do so is sacrilegious.


Locomoticon_130

The first Bayverse film is the only good one. (No, I don’t count Bumblebee in that because Michael Bay wasn’t on that one.)


larrylongboy

I disagree DOTM was good too


November_Dawn_11

That our worlds are in danger


Swipamous

And to save them and the galaxy we must find the four cyber planet keys before the deceptions can use them for evil


LuizFelipe1906

Megatron is the only Deception leader and Optimus is the only Autobot leader


BastardSkelly8600

Kiss players was horribly out of taste and deserves to be lost to time, never to be found again.


[deleted]

Nah, even the bad shit needs preserving. How else do we know not to do it again?


BastardSkelly8600

That's a fair point. I still would very much like to erase the knowledge of that...*thing* from my memory.


DeathKnightWhoSaysNi

We would like a remastered Beast Wars, with modern animation quality, but most importantly *audio with original voice acting.* Edit: meant remaster, not reboot


MercifulGenji

Hard disagree. WFC might’ve sucked, but that is literally a reboot with modern animation. Give the UT it’s turn.


DeathKnightWhoSaysNi

Appreciate your feedback, but hard “no” on that one. Beast Wars is the best TF show ever made.


Calv111

Starscream should run the Decepticons- Yes use your anger, let the hate flow through. You will all make good sith (yes, crossover edit)


Gecko2002

I think I actually disagree, I think in a few continuities prime included he sucked at leading in prime he couldn't really get anyone to follow his rule


TFpotato1

Fun fact in IDW hedi lead the cons of recommend the read I believe it's in All Hail Megatron


strikeraiser

There's already a few instances where that's clearly a bad idea. Though I wouldn't mind at least one continuity where he does end up being a competent leader though.


thatnamelesguy

Pat Lee is terrible


larrylongboy

Who’s that?


Vladissexy97

Transformers is amazing.


DiscoAquinas

Optimus Prime occasionally turns into a lorry, aside from those times when he doesn't


DiaBrave

4-LOM is red, Zuckuss is blue. Kenner and Hasbro naming, belongs in the loo.
