Question: What would Bomb-Burst, Offroad, Stranglehold, Snarler, Finback, Carnivac, Oilmaster, and buggy look like in their Organic Pretender Shells?

I mean, I make it a note to show them off in their profiles.

Dear Vector Prime, what's IDW1 Magnificus like? Is he a clone?

Dear Magnificus Minder, 

Magnificus was originally a follower of Micronus Prime during the time of the Thirteen Primes with a unique ability—natural mass-displacement. When the first Cybertron Civil War broke out amongst the tribes, Magnificus’ natural talent and affinity for strategy and problem-solving made him Micronus’ chief general, a role he fulfilled a bit too well. During a campaign where Micronus and Onyx Prime’s forces defeated Alchemist’s on the outskirts of Mebion, Magnificus seized the opportunity to betray Onyx’s forces, killing his fellow general Oilmaster and ordering his men to slaughter the rest of the beasts. Micronus was horrified by his actions and, as punishment, the Titan Master Convex banished him to the microscopic sub-dimension that would become known as Microspace.

Overwhelmed by the experience, Magnificus went into stasis and his body floated through the depths of Microspace for several millennia until he crashed onto the planet Xeptos, right in front of a group of Antron mercenaries who had abducted the young Prince Ga’Mede. Thinking Magnificus to be a tron deployed by the Xeptos Royal Family, the Antrons attacked, but were quickly put down. During this fight, Magnificus discovered that his mass displacement ability had been altered by the trip, allowing him to shift his size at will and without the excess energy output. He rescued Ga’Mede and returned him to his family.

So thankful for his son’s return was King Da’rdan that he offered Magnificus room and board in their castle in exchange for the Cybertronian becoming his son’s bodyguard. Magnificus reluctantly accepted, but soon found that he enjoyed the work. He grew very fond of Ga’mede and began teaching the once listless young prince the ways of combat and warfare, as well as his own personal beliefs about the power of vengeance. It was a lesson Ga’mede would take to heart when his planet was visited by Baron Hraal Karza, but perhaps that is a tale for another time…

Time to update the Digibash Graveyard, as usual it's totally overdue

This is how I deal with digibash WIP's that I'm never going to finish. Sometimes because someone else beat me to the punch and sometimes because I can't devote as much time to them I think they deserve

so basically

he’s monky

Transformers: Timelines

Cybertron’s Most Wanted

Voyager class? Legends class? Targetmaster class? (All of the above)

Oilmaster (All three)

For Christmas of 2017 I received the Botcon 2015′s Cybertron’s Most Wanted boxed set, back when the Transformers Collector’s Club web site towards the end of its run before shutting down.

HaHaaaaa! Oilmaster is so fun!

I love the Double-Pretender. Since I already own the TFCC Optimus Prime version, and the two only real differences between this and Optimus is the Prime head sculpt and the sword, I’m just going to make this brief and say he’s really fun.

The Swerve sculpt is really awesome, and to have this Decepticon bounty hunter wearing such a s&(t-eating grin on his face is great!

If you can find him; recommended.

Titans Return Oilmaster

I had to throw away an entire Legends Astrotrain and a spare Apeface head for this custom, but it was worth it.

we,ve seen multiple versions of barricade inspired by the tyran cluster. so are they versons of stinger,the dreads,quintessa,infernocus ect in other universal clusters

Dear Resonance Researcher,

Certainly, many archetypes are shared across the multiverse. In one universe, Stinger led the Decepticon Mini Vehicles against their Autobot foes. Though their diminutive proportions led others of their kind to look down on them, the Mini-Decepticons were unfortunately nonetheless devastating against humanity. Stinger's fellow Mini-Cons included Nightracer, Wipe-Out, Oilmaster, and Viper.

The Dreads existed in another universe, where they were a trio of Decepticon Pretenders who employed horrific alien shells during their assassination attempts on Autobots. They consisted of Crowbar, whose ferocity and patience made him the perfect predator to prey upon Autobot victims; Hatchet, a strategist who used their serpent-canine-like avatar to provide matchless mobility in the wildest terrain; and Airachnid, cold and heartless, her alien thought processes making her an impossible foe to predict.

Though Quintessa has concealed herself with many names, it is her very duplicity that makes her recognisable without a doubt across the multiverse. In one Level she was a lover of the Master Renegade, but her attempts to betray him to the Evil One made it clear that their forms of evil were incompatible. As punishment, she was imprisoned deep within the third world of Antares, where she remained until she was accidentally released by Nick Burns and Scooter.

One version of Infernocus Maximus was created by Primus to guard the Dark Energon pool that existed deep within an alien world. He was made up of the Inferno Team, a group of Decepticons that used their monstrous appearance to drive away any who might be called by the dark substance. Unfortunately they were not themselves immune to the corruption—when Megatron used the foul substance to become Galvatron, they became one of his most loyal forces, their minds warped to serve him.
