I’d pay good money to see that! The idea of a group of Cybertronians getting together to make a movie is very appealing to me.

Oh my god that'd be brilliant xD

Don't forget Hoist!

That’d get Bots and Cons rolling into the theaters instantly.

Let's hope skullgrin and Thundercraker appeared in season two of earthspark

Why do you base every single one of your comments on comments from the community posts? Everytime I see one of your comments, I go over to the community post for the same video and lo and behold, there's a comment saying the exact same thing, justbwith slightly different wording. That's if you're not copypasting them

@@mynameisharry8739 I just checked the community post, and you are right

@@strahinjavilimonovic1532 the only reason I even noticed that is cause he just copypasted my comment from the Starscream's ghost community post and reposted it on the official video

Thundercracker quit Decepticons to become a movie writer

@@returnedtomonkey8886 I now want to see Thundercracker, Skullgrin, and maybe some College Theatre students to make a movie.

@@kripdomii.v6680 Great . Now I'm tempted to buy Skullgrin and do a stop motion skit with this premise.

Thundercraker made little sense as a screenwriter. That seems more of Skywarp’s thing.

@@rayvenkman2087 why though?

that would be an amazing inclusion of his character

I’d love to see that.

IDW: LOL. Let’s not do that.

I'm surprised that he apparently didn't appear in Regeneration One. Bro was forgotten. :(

Of course the only time Circuit Breaker attacks a Decepticon before spotting Shockwave was the one who actually wasn't attacking anyone but earning his fuel.

That’s rough buddy

@@ltb1345 Bugly was made a zombie and iguanus appeared as a shadow leech Furman didn't like the 88 pretenders Landmine was killed off in issue 66 and Furman used the Unicron war to get rid of characters he didn't like He brought in skullgrin to kill him off in G2

I could imagine a modern comic approaching the story from a different angle, where the Autobots are conflicted about the situation. They obviously can't just let Decepticons amass fuel right under their noses, but they can't exactly meddle with the legitimate affairs of humans either.

I hear. The comics filled a void for me after the show ended.

I always admired the comic writers for taking the craziest things Hasbro threw at them (Pretenders, Action Masters, etc) and writing at least passably workable stories around them.

I liked the "way out there" comic stories that Marvel did sometimes with the Transformers comics back in the 80's. Other storylines I liked were Marvel introducing the scraplets and another one where the Throttlebots brains were put into tiny remote-control cars and were running from Decepticons.

@@jimdigitalvideo The scraplets were very cool. And also scary, to child-me. Which I kind of get; the way they're portrayed in the comic is basically body horror-levels of ick, but for robots. In general the comics were (I still think) aimed at a slightly older audience than the cartoon, and had more… I hesitate to say "mature" or "adult" stories, but that's kind of what I mean. There were a lot of really cool stories even from the beginning, about pacifist Ratchet being forced to fight, and all the way to the end, with Scorponok working with Prime; trying to keep the Decepticons in line to make peace happen. And then trying to hold on to that peace after the common threat of Unicron was defeated…

I don't see the disguises as disguises but more of a alternate way to fight. Originally the cybertronians needed to disguise themselves in a cold war style war. (spy vs spy) But over time use transformation to adapt to the environment of each planet as the war would expand offworld on planets that may not suit their form. Eg if you live in a mountainous area your car mode is useless. Changing into an animal that can jump high and lives in moutains makes sense. If a transformer is living in planet with lots of water they might actually see benefit to being sharks and whales and other things. (submarine, boats, battleships for less stealthy modes etc) Stealth is important but stealth also can mean you carry lighter weapons because they have to be concealed. Sometimes you may want an alt mode that isn't as stealthy but lets you have a weapon openly carried because you need larger firepower. Eg on a planet where there are not many places to hide or blend in with nature. (such as desert planet) If you turn into a tank on a war torn planet, you chose a mode that would suit treaded vehicles with good firepower. If you chose to turn into a giant lizard, you get more stealth because your weapons are concealed so it's probably better for spy missions. Got it? You lose firepower as a lizard but gain stealth, but as a tank you gain firepower but are easy to spot in satellite as a military weapon. Soundwave is great as a cassette if he is spying on earth, but if he were living on a remote planet with no cities, it makes not sense to "blend in" to the environment as a cassette in the middle of nowhere as that would make you stand out in that situation! Sometimes you just got to accept its better to not be stealthy but be more "battle ready" so you can arm yourself up with bigger weapons and use more firepower. Planets with loads of places to hide and blend in probably suit a 'guerilla warfare'-style of fighting but those desert planets and war torn areas it may be wiser to just be the vehicle with all the guns and weapons ready so you can get the first shot off. An attack chooper is louder but its also more ready to shoot. A desert animal is less read to fire guns (because its concealed) but may be able to sneak past enemy detection by staying low to the ground and take longer to spot. There are advantages to either thing. So where would monster fit in? The humans could be making biological weapons and experimenting with genetic manipulation (think Resident Evil) and the decepticons can blame humans for the emergence of experimental creatures by turning into monsters and framing them. (megatron can justify bombing human research facilities on the basis that the monsters are proof of human preparing war on them and gain scientific knowledge from kidnapping the scientists who they can say died in the bombings) The autobots would not believe them but it acts like a distraction so Megatron can appear as victim in a conflict on earth. The monster mode offers an intimidation factor that scares some autobots who are frightened of monsters so its also like psychological warfare thing. Think about why humans fear spiders and snakes but not worms? There is something about the appearance of a predator animal that causes us to react differently. (more visually scary creature means other animals are less likely to mess with it - it's a natural defense animals use on each other. Generally if you see a creature with fangs, and sharp claws you back off, but if its a furry cuddly animal of small size like a bunny rabbit you want to pet it because its clear its a prey animal. Monsters = the apex predators of all creatures)

He once said he had to introduce new characters every issue but he seemed to really like blaster, and ratbat

I honestly think that a lot of the series would have been the more weird, off-beat stories like the car wash of doom, and probably would have had a bigger human focus. Those are the aspects he really seemed to value during his run. Had that happened, I imagine the Marvel series would probably be one of the most unique transformers series ever made, more than it already is.

@@chrisedwards3214 Marvel Ratbat is why I love the character so much. It was so nice seeing one of the cassette bots actually having agency, and I always prefer it when the characters can talk instead of just doing animal sounds. Also Marvel Blaster >>> Cartoon Blaster.

@@ShinGallon Not to mention Marvel Shockwave, the best version of the character by far.

@@ltb1345 Oh, easily. IDW is good too but Marvel Shockwave is fantastic. I was always disappointed by his personality in the cartoon after reading the comics.

I hate looking at this figure I wish it never existed. Anyways eat your cereal or whatever

It's a nice homage to the Mega Pretenders, right?

Oh and... Skullgrin: Castle Greyskull will be mine! (Maniacal laughter)

Yeah it's good The only downside is it got a couple soft rubbery plastic parts (mainly the horns and swords)

Loving the idea!! Imagine him having this twisted Shakespearean personality. Kinda like Overload from RID 2015...(would've matched perfectly with his skull theme XD)

@@backonja7255 That could be ONE OF his "personalities." He could also have this thing where he's often lying about what his real personality is. He'd be this intentionally confusing character. He could even have some sort of catchphrase when he drops the act by saying, "and...scene."

Now that I think about it, fact that Skullgrin was paired with Leige Maximo is kinda fitting reference to his role in Marvel comic books. Being an actor in a way is lying and use of deception, which are core themes of Leige Maximo...Likely a coincidence, but still....
