Where is my fellow G1 Brainstorm fans at?

Okay So like I DO like IDW Brainstorm but I really REALLY like G1 Brainstorm I know there's not much to his character in G1 but I really like what we got and sometimes I wish people build off of G1 Brainstorm instead of IDW all the time (No hate to anyone who based their own version of Brainstorm off of IDW he's good too! I just like G1 a lot)

So anyway I'm going to be really annoying about G1 Brainstorm cuz he is adorable and more people need to appreciate him! plus my version of brainstorm in my fan generation is based off of G1.

Let's talk about the design because he's so cute!💕

Like fucking look at him!!!

The blue they normally give him nowadays is really nice and pretty but I love the green color, But I like him more than just the colors if I'm being honest I really like his head shape more here than what we get in IDW, it looks nice in IDW but G1 he looks soo cute and it's kind of funny when you think about the fact that he has a cybertronian mullet and I love it so much

Evidence of the mullet! I think the cybertronian mullet looks adorable too.

And also I look at the weird little pointy things on his head as like a pair of ears and it kind of makes me think of a bat because also where his wings are too, big ears for hearing, his little wings are on his arms instead of his back!

💕cybertronian Bat boy💕

Also I don't know how to describe it but his G1 design just looks huggable!

He's supposed to be a little feisty guy ready to save his comrades here but he just looks adorable to me, if anything I'm like "oh no cute robo is beating up 3:".

Even though there's not much to his character I think he's adorable and character-wise he's pretty cute too!

(who is also the reason why the golden age came back in G1)

But I'll get into that in This Post

Okay time to overanalyze G1 Brainstorm because I love him

Seriously where's my fellow G1 Brainstorm fans at?!

G1 brainstorm is not giving enough love both by the fan base and in the literal show itself

Anyway so 99% of this a tire thing is just going to be me reading way too much into a character who wasn't written with the idea of a character, but instead the idea of marketing toys? Yep, but let's be honest that's probably how we got the versions of the characters we love today! Also to make it clear this is about G1 not the Headmasters, IDW or the IDW reboot. Anyway have my insane rambling for the sake of fun.

Brainstorm likes and respects organic life!

G1 Brainstorm seems to have quite a bit of respect for humans and see them as equals, this can be seen with the fact that he believes that humans can help make cybertronians stronger but also when he's talking about it Highbrow tries to quickly sum up what Brainstorm is talking about to another bot, "Oh Brainstorms trying to prove that we can function better with human operators inside us" which Brainstorm besides to corrects him "Human partners, Highbrow!" With the fact that he correct Highbrow by rephrasing it as a partnership tells me Brainstorm doesn't want this to be a someone is stronger than the other or someone's fully in control and the other listens fully relationship, he wants it to be a partnership where both parties are equal and work alongside each other! I even say all of this extends to organic life in general due to the Nebulas being roped into his idea. "You mean putting Humans- uh Nebulas inside the Autobots bodies?" He even corrects himself to include them despite the fact that his original plan had nothing to do with them.

He kind of casually gets bullied-

Fuck you Hardhead /j but like our Laurel first introduction to Brainstorm in G1 is him trying to show that his theory is proven and think of how to put his idea in motion just to immediately be shot down quite rudely by Hardhead, "correction the problem is you and your stupid ideas!" Like damn that's pretty rude and on top of that later his idea is stolen by the decepticons like he just exists in this series and bad things happen to him!

he's quiet but willing and happy to talk when spoken to

So like I know for a fact it's just them not doing much for him but most of the time he doesn't seem to speak until someone speaks to him, it's just a small little thing and it's happened to several other characters before but it could always be reinterpreted as being shy or learning to be quiet because a similar interactions like with Hardhead

The Return Of The Golden Age!

Ok so about that whole Brainstorms the one who brought back the golden age in G1 thing I brought up in my first post! when you think about that scene Optimus prime has with alpha trion where alpha trion is bringing up that bringing humans and cybertonians together will bring back the Golden age... Hey I wonder whose idea did that? I wonder who's the one who ultimately brought back the Golden age? That's right it was Brainstorm! He's the one who thought about bringing humans and cybertonians together as one! But like the show never acknowledges that fact, He's never given credit for the fact that it was his idea that caused this, he's not even made into the leader of the Headmasters!
