Editing 03.06.05 edit

Added the intro song info, as well as trying to make the intro more fact heavy, adding a section about the controversy over the ending/storytelling just before the entry on Transtech.

Apparently this IP has a hard on for bashing on Skir's involvment on Beast Machines. I suggest that we keep an eye out for any more changes posted by this IP as they are completely biased.

Organic Cybertron edit

Latest comment: 16 years ago2 comments2 people in discussion

It says in the Controversy part of the article that Cybertron was originally a purely cybernetic planet. Yet I remember in one episode (Desertion of the Dinobots'' I think) that Cybertron had an organic core that could be mined. Am I imagining things or is this true?SMegatron 19:57, 21 August 2006 (UTC)Reply

I think I know what you are referring to. I'm not sure about the organic part, but I remember that the Quintessons hid some sort of technorganic creatures below surface.

However, don't forget that the original (US) animated series is a continuity of its own, mostly different from the comic universe. There was no Primus in the cartoon for example. (Though I wouldn't be surprised if Hasbro decides to retcon Primacron to be Primus in an ape costume...--Cyberman TM (talk) 22:02, 10 February 2008 (UTC)Reply

I don't remember that, but I did recently rewatch the Beast Machines pilot and I never noticed before the series starts with a Tank Drone running over a small flower growing out of a crack on a street on Cybertron. Hardly a non-organic place from ep one of Beast Machines. user:mathewignash

DVD set edit

shouldnt the DVD boxset be mentioned?

-- Yes, someone should bring up the fact that it's out on DVD now, before they miss their chance like I did.

Dragon Megatron edit

Wasn't Megatron a dragon rather than "more of a mind than a body for the first season" ?

Yup, it's the second season that he was more of a mind than a body. --148.61.207.67 04:56, 30 March 2007 (UTC)Reply

Order for listing Maximals and Predacons edit

Latest comment: 17 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

I was iin favor of the leaders first, and then the rest in ALPHABETICAL order, since this is an encyclopedia, and the order should reflect a way to make it easy for someone to find the data. Not in order of rank or in order of first to transform. user:mathewignash

I'm in favor of listing the four original Maximals in order of rank, then alphabetically which also puts them in neat order of transformation. --The Matrix Prime 17:50, 16 April 2007 (UTC)Reply

NIN Reference? edit

One episode has the title "The Downward Spiral", and although it is a cartoon, I wouldn't be too quick to rule out it as a reference to the Nine Inch Nails album of the same name. Any takers?
