Despite being robotic contructs, Transformers seem to have certain substances that are analagous to food. These food articles include, but are not limited to, the following:

*[[:Category:Seasonings|Seasonings]] like flavorful iron filings, savory mercury sauce, or [[lead sulfide crystals]].
*[[Cesium salami and beryllium baloney]]
*In some rare cases, [[Energon]] - Period.

How these robots eat the food is up to debate, because [[Optimus Prime (G1)|some]] [[Wheeljack (G1)|of]] [[Shockwave (G1)|them]] don't have [[Mouthplate|mouths]].

Pepsi Convoy

69.153.138.72: /* Trivia/Notes */

: ''Pepsi Convoy is an [[Autobot]] in the [[Generation 1]] [[continuity family]].''

[[Image:PepsiConvoy-card.jpg|right|thumb|300px|"Pepsi is the right of all sentient beings."]]

'''Pepsi Convoy''' has but one mission -- to bring cool, refreshing carbonated beverages to the thirsty sentients across the galaxy. With his powerful [[CO2 gun]] and [[Bottle Station]], no thirst shall go unquenched!

He is made of a special sample of "[[sentient metal]]" originally developed by NASA that was entrusted to the [[Autobot]]s. This same metal makes up the mysterious thirst-quenching "superhero" Pepsiman. It is unknown if Pepsi Convoy shares other traits with Pepsiman, namely a good running speed, near-muteness and rather poor luck. But he probably has its ability to make Pepsi appear out of thin air.

===Generation 1===
*'''Pepsi Convoy''' (Autobot, 2005)

: In 1985, a special version of [[Optimus Prime (G1)|Optimus Prime]] was released with bonus Pepsi decals for his trailer in the US market. This toy was the inspiration for the 2005 Japanese reissue of the Optimus Prime toy as Pepsi Convoy, a much more... ''overt'' cross-branding. This release has several new Pepsi-themed paint masks and decals, as well as an entirely new trailer unit, specially designed to carry a single 500ml-size bottle (a common size in Japan), three 350ml cans, or 12 bottle caps (bottle cap figurines being a common and popular collectable item in Japan).

: This toy was slightly altered to make the US "Pepsi Optimus Prime" contest prize.

==Trivia/Notes==
* The final bio for Pepsi Convoy does not contain the ''direct'', named reference to Pepsiman originally written by author [[Hirofumi Ichikawa]], but still mentions the "sentient metal" that is the basis of Pepsiman's origin.

* This is not the only overt PepsiCo crossover with Transformers... check out the [[Mountain Dew Robot]]s.

* Faces the evil thirst generation of [[Destron Pizza]].

* Dubbed as Pepsimus Prime.

[[Image:DanDiDio.jpg|thumb|250px| Dr. Phil really has it out for anything after 1986.]]

'''Dan DiDio''' was an executive at [[Mainframe Entertainment]] assigned to the [[Transformers]] franchise during the third season of [[Beast Wars]]. Dan is best known for being the producer who informed [[Marv Wolfman]] that Beast Wars had no ties to the original series and to do as he pleased with [[Generation 1|G1]] [[continuity]] when outlining [[Beast Machines]], and then instructed [[Bob Skir]] and [[Marty Isenberg]] to disregard any previous incarnations of the series in writing Beast Machines, as Beast Wars was too "continuity-heavy"<ref name="BM Doc">Beast Machines DVD supplementary materials</ref>.

In his spare time, Dan also enjoys ruining the DC Comics universe, where his current plan seems to be killing off every character you ever liked. Also, he was the one who cancelled ReBoot. There are rumors about him tackling [[Christmas]] next.

==Trivia==
*Is Satan.
*Hates fun and comedy.
*Hates you.
