LEGO Ninjago Cross Kingdoms Predacons Rising Season 16: predacon botánica (1/2)
Height of the alternative modes that exist in my TFP story "The Polar Star", and other explanations on my AU
So today, I will talk about the height of the alternate modes that exist in my story. As well as some explanations of the City-States, and the different Transformers classes, species, and planets in my AU.
*
Cybertron
Grounders:
Basic car: 6.5 meters
Sports car: 7 meters
Racing car: 7 meters
Pick-up: 7.5 meters
Van: 8 meters
Motorcycle: 5.7 meters
Military car: 8.5 meters
Armored car: 7.5 meters
Transport truck: 9.5 meters
Military truck: 9.5 meters
Tank: 8 meters
Assault chart: 8.5 meters
Science van: 9.5 meters
Science car: 7 meters
Scientific little van: 8.5 meters
Ambulance: 7 meters
Rescue car: 6.5 meters
Fire truck: 9 meters
Crane: 8 meters
Front-end loader: 9 meters
Excavator: 8 meters
Bulldozer: 9 meters
Concrete mixer truck: 8.5 meters
Dump truck: 9.5 meters
Tractor: 9.5 meters
Drill (very rare): 10 meters
Grounders are everywhere on Cybertron, except for Vos, which is a City-State composed entirely of Flyers. It is the only City where the Grounders cannot live.
There are alternative modes predefined for medicine or science, but that does not prevent the basics from also being able to do the same thing. Basic cars, basic helicopters, motorcycles, pick-ups, and vans, could do absolutely anything they wanted, as long as they had permission from the Senate.
Also, a scientist can do medicine, and vice versa. But the Senate would not accept that a construction vehicle becomes a doctor and vice versa.
It was not forbidden for the other modes, but let's say that it was very frowned upon, and that society often reminded it in a cruel way.
Drillers were not uncommon during the Age of Elevation, and they were the ones who played the role of miners, along with the Slaves. The difference was that they were paid, but that didn't take away from the thankless task that this job was.
Drills began to become more and more rare over time, Primus no longer created them. The God of Order hoped that by doing this, the Transformers would stop the overexploitation of energon.
But, instead, there were more Slaves and machines, to compensate for the lack of robots with a drill as an alt mode.
Flyers:
Basic helicopter: 6 meters
Small jet: 8 meters
Large jet: 9.5 meters
Military shuttle: 12 meters
Large military helicopter: 11 meters
Small military helicopter: 9.5 meters
Large close combat aircraft: 10.5 meters
Small close combat aircraft: 9 meters
Spy plane: 9 meters
Bomber plane: 12 meters
Transport shuttle: 12 meters
Transport helicopter: 7 meters
Cargo plane: 11.5 meters
Airliner: 11 meters
Rescue jet (very rare): 8 meters
Rescue helicopter: 7.5 meters
Rescue Jets are very rare, it's an alternate mode that can only be found on Cybertron, and nowhere else.
Flyers have much less freedom than Grounders. Although they are superior to them in the caste system, they have less privilege in their work. The only truly free ones are the basic helicopters, but that's all.
Flyers are just as common as Grounders, however, they are rare to see in Kaon. The Flyers live mainly in Vos, and for someone who knows them well, it's easy to recognize a Vossian.
Vossians look slightly different from other flyers who have the same alternate mode as them. A Vossian has one or two reactors in the back, longer claws, and one to three horns at the level of the head.
It's easy to see with Starscream or Dreadwing, for example. And, for an example of a no Vossian flyer, we have Skyfire (no horns, reactors on the feet, and little claws).
Note: In Vos, since construction vehicles cannot live there, or move around easily, the construction of buildings is handled by Slaves.
Techno-organic:
Male insect: 6.5 meters
Male arachnid: 7 meters
Male feline: 7.5 meters
Male canine: 8 meters
Male murid: 5 meters
Male bird: 6.5 meters
Male ursidae: 9 meters
Male reptile: 7 meters
Female insect: 8 meters
Female arachnid: 5.5 meters
Feline female: 6 meters
Female canine: 7 meters
Female murid: 4.5 meters
Female bird: 6 meters
Female ursidae: 8.5 meters
Female reptile: 6 meters
Insecticons: 10.5 meters
The Techno-organics mainly live in Kaon and its surroundings, they are mostly clustered there, because it's the only place where they are really accepted.
The Techno-organics are the only ones to have feminine or masculine genders. Because, they are at the origin animals created by Primus which evolved until adopting the form of the Transformers.
Techno-Organics only exist on Cybertron, and don't exist on colonies. They are unique to Cybertron.
Techno-organics, woth the Predacons or robotic animals, are able to Spark Bond, and therefore create themselves without the help of Primus. Either the male or the female can carry the Sparkling. Often it is the larger of the couple.
Also, it should be noted that the Insecticons are not Insect-class Techno-Organics, because they are clones created through Airachnid's CNA, with the mixture of Insect Techno-Organics.
That's why they're taller, and robust, because they're technically hybrids. An Insecticon has no gender, therefore neither male nor female. Shockwave wanted to prevent them from being able to Spark Bond, and spawn on their own.
Minicons:
Bot form: 3.5 meters
Bird form: 2 meters
Cat form: 2.5 meters
Canine form: 3 meters
Bat form: 1,5 meters
Note that Laserbeak or Ravage are not Techno-Organics. Because the Techno-organics can transform into animals, while the Minicons transform into weapons, or complete their host. Their animal form is their original form, except for those in bot form (like Rumble and Frenzy).
Also, the Techno-Organics are much larger. We must not forget that the peculiarity of minicons is that they are small.
Outcastes:
(The only ones known to date, extremely rare)
Microscope: 7 meters
Electric chair: 6.5 meters
Crusher: 11 meters
Outcasts are alternate modes that cannot move. They were usually put on as a slave, unless the alternate mode could be useful, such as the microscope.
*
Veloctiron
Grounders:
Basic car: 6 meters
Sports car: 6.5 meters
Racing car: 6.5 meters
Motorcycle: 5.5 meters
Military car: 8 meters
Armored car: 7 meters
Transport truck: 9 meters
Military truck: 9 meters
Crane: 7.5 meters
Front-end loader: 8.5 meters
Excavator: 7.5 meters
Bulldozer: 8.5 meters
Concrete mixe truckr: 8 meters
Dump truck: 9 meters
Tractor: 9 meters
Drill (very rare): 9.5 meters
The Grounders are much less varied than on Cybertron. Also, Flyers and Outcasts do not exist on Veloctitron. Velocitron has no rescue vehicles, those living on the planet are Cybertronians.
There are also no scientists. But then again, that's not a problem, because some Cybertronians scientists come to settle on the planet to study it.
The Velocitronians are smaller and more slender than the Cybertronians, it's an evolution that they had to gain in speed.
Also, unlike Cybertron's basic, racing, and sports cars, Velocitron cars do not have back door fins in their bot mode.
*
Caminus
Grounders:
Basic car: 5.5 meters
Sports car: 6 meters
Racing car: 6 meters
Pick-up: 6.5 meters
Van: 7 meters
Motorcycle: 5 meters
Military car: 7.5 meters
Armored car: 6.5 meters
Transport car: 7 meters
Ambulance: 6 meters
Rescue car: 5.5 meters
Fire car: 7 meters
Crane: 7 meters
Front-end loader: 8 meters
Excavator: 7 meters
Bulldozer: 8 meters
Concrete mixer: 7.5 meters
Dump truck: 8.5 meters
Tractor: 8.5 meters
Drill (very rare): 8.5 meters
Flyers:
Basic helicopter: 5 meters
Small jet: 7.5 meters
Military helicopter: 7.5 meters
Small close combat aircraft: 8 meters
Spy plane: 8 meters
Transport helicopter: 6.5 meters
Rescue helicopter: 6 meters
The Caminus have an almost equally diverse set of alternate modes as they do on Cybertron. The only difference is that the big alternative modes, such as shuttles or trucks, do not exist.
Caminus are much smaller than Cybertronians or Velocitronians, and have a shape that to humans may remember a woman.
Their small size is due to the very steep landscape of Caminus, a smaller size being more practical to move around more easily.

Cold Constructions
1st Generation :
Spy plane: 8.5 meters
2nd Generation :
Racing car: 6.5 meters
Sports car: 6.5 meters
3rd Generation :
Small jet: 7.5 meters
Tank: 7.5 meters
Vehicons :
Grounder Vehicon: 7 meters
Flying Vehicon: 8 meters
Cold Constructions are smaller and physically weaker than the alternate modes they represent. This was to make it easier to differentiate real robots from Cold Constructions.
In addition to their cold Sparks, and composed of only three colors: Dark Gray (1st G ), Light Gray (2nd G ), White (3rd G ).
The Cold Constructions were meant to be machines, drones, but they evolved and developed a form of intelligence and self-awareness. Which would normally take away their machine status. Unfortunately, the Senate did not accept it….
Vehicons are technically Cold Constructions, the difference with them is that they are less elaborate. The other difference is that Shockwave intended them to have a modicum of awareness. Which was not desired from the Cold Constructions.
Vehicons basically lack intelligence, strength, and stamina, but that's something they can work on, and therefore improve upon.

Predacons
Flying Predacon:
Robot mode: 12 - 11.5 meters
Beast mode: 20 – 15 meters
Terrestrial Predacon:
Robot mode: 10 – 9 meters
Beast mode: 13 – 12 meters
Subterranean Predacon:
Robot mode: 11 – 10.5 meters
Beast mode: 14 – 13 meters
The Predacons are not all winged, and their sizes can vary even between the same class. If Shockwave mainly created winged Predacons, it's because they are bigger, and flying is an undeniable advantage. Also, they are the only ones capable of breathing fire.
On the other hand, the terrestrial Predacons move more often, which makes them more enduring and stronger. And the Subterranean Predacons have longer claws for digging galleries, and a second armor, to protect themselves from potential rockfalls.
Of course, Predacons all have weak points, flying Predacons have visible weak points (their wings in particular). Terrestrial Predacons are smaller, and while they are stronger, they are not more robust. Finally, Subterranean Predacons are very sensitive to light.
*
The maximum size for robot mode (therefore original mode) of Transformers and other robotic lives is 12 meters, all planets and species combined. This is the largest possible size.
The only exception is Overlord, a 12.5 meter bomber plane. This is explained by the improvement he had thanks to experiments (wich was his own choice), improving him on many points (such as strength or speed), but also on his size, making him bigger.
I made up some concepts for Techno-Organic optics!
Hero Forge gives me far too much power.
These are ones based on the movie and Aligned continuities, and what I thought of off the top of my head. I have Hero Forge Pro and was able to save all these.
However! If you think of a combo you want to see, I’ll tinker with it!

This was my first time using an art program; I used Krita. Go gentle on me
please don’t repost- I don’t know how to do watermarks and I put a lot of effort into these thru Hero Forge
Little something I scribbled for the Sari Bee fans over on Deviant Art the past hour of “future” Sari and Bee =)
Did some pics of Bee and Sari from my version of Transformers today =) Got them when Sari's little, then after her "upgrade", and then them hundreds of years into the future during the Beast Era.
