Are there any universes where combiners like Bruticus or Superion are just normal transformers? For example Titanium Menasor not being a combiner.
Dear Uncombined Understander,
In one universe you might be familiar with, "Superion" was the title given to the chief vizier of Nexus Prime, leader of the Zaigata tribe; none of those who held the role were gestalt beings, though the Superion who served Nexus during the fall of the Primes could combine with the beast-bot Trizer as a Headmaster. Millions of years later, the combined form of the Aerialbots would adopt this ancient title as his name—likely drawn from the memories of Skydive, a student of Cybertronian history—and the Superion would go on to serve Optimus Prime during his battle against the Decepticons on Earth.
