Do you have a quote of Sentinel being specifically mentioned in the comic? I don't remember anything past the uni scene. While the original thirteen were killed by the Fallen in the comic and novel, there's nothing to confirm Sentinel wasn't a descendant like Optimus. Again, correct me if I'm wrong[[User:Eire]] 20.14 Oct 12 09 (UTC)
:"See, if you break down the elemental components of energon and assume a constant decay rate then extrapolate for each of the fourteen galactic convergences it took '''''Sentinel Prime's''''' expedition to get an echo you end up with a formula for inter-dimensional energy that mass and light alone can't '''''possibly''''' explain." - [[User:Starfield|Starfield]] 17:28, 12 October 2009 (EDT)
::Erm ok, thanks for the quote Starfield, anyway, Jetfire explained in the adaptations that The Fallen returned to Cybertron, after the battle with the first generation for Earth, slaughtering all the Primes except for the child hidden from him (Optimus). Unless Sentinel is revealed to be alive in TF3, which is unlikely considering this was not mentioned in the final edit of ROTF, then he probably died because of The Fallen. [[User:Alientraveller|Alientraveller]] 17:57, 12 October 2009 (EDT)
:::Starfield, I actually wanted the answer Alientraveller gave. I'm well aware of Sentinel's existence in the movieverse, but I just couldn't remember a reference in issue 3 [[User:Eire]]

::"the fourteen galactic convergences it took '''the''' Sentinel Prime expedition to"
::"The", and no possessive.
::Look, '''I''' think it's the leader of the 7/12/13 too... but the phrasing in the movie itself (which I just checked on, er... Youtube) '''isn't''' clear-cut enough to even say for certain that Sentinel Prime is an individual-- let alone that he's one of the 12! The phrasing is just... ambiguous, and the timeline is a godawful mess thanks to ROTF's 17,000 years retcon, and questions of whether the 13 in the movie are '''the''' 13 or not. (They're not. I mean... the movie fucking cut them down to 7. But until something official comes through to make it certain... it's just a collosal brain-ache that makes logical inference almost impossible.)
::Now... I ''thought'' that something... (a book or video game?) mentioned movieverse Sentinel Prime in a clearer light, but if so... it was around the time we were swamped with new stuff, and the ref never got documented. Does this sound familiar to anyone else?
::I have checked the following sources, and they do '''not''' mention Sentinel Prime in a helpful manner:
::*ROTF novelization (quote same as movie, with an added bit at the end. Nothing from Jetfire's history lesson or the Infinite White.)
::*The Movie Universe guidebook. No mention of Sentinel Prime by name
::-[[User:Derik|Derik]] 23:59, 12 October 2009 (EDT)
:::The first time I heard Sentinel mentioned was in the movie. And the Sentinel Prime expedition. You'd be forgiven for presuming, and really there's no reason not too, it was named after the Prime in charge. And given the massively different origin of the Primes in the movie compared to the adaptations, it seems again logical that he's simple a predecessor of Optimus, not one of the original Primes. There is some assumptions being made, however they are logical assumptions. IF you're concerned, throw in a note at the bottom. Personally, I think it's a bit of an assumption that Sentinel in the comics is one of the original Primes, but I can see why AT put it the way he did [[User:Eire]] 13.35 Oct 13 09 (UTC)

== Fannon ==

I'm '''really''' uncomfortable witht he ammoutn of assumptions and made-up shit on this page. The cited blog post ''does'' establish Sentinel Prime to be a character-- but it doesn't ''in any way'' say he's Prime and Megatron's father, or that he's one of the original 12. And the storylink citing his death... Sentinel Prime's name isn't even MENTIONED in that issue! -[[User:Derik|Derik]] 12:37, 13 October 2009 (EDT)

Should we move this to "Sentinel Prime (DOTM)"? We moved "Soundwave (Movie)" to [[Soundwave (ROTF)]], ignoring when he was mentioned by Starscream in the UK magazine for the first film. [[User:Alientraveller|Alientraveller]] 15:03, 11 February 2011 (EST)
:An offhand mention in the freaking UK mag letters page is not exactly the same thing as Sentinel's existence being firmly established in the Revenge of the Fallen film. --[[User:Detour|Detour]] 15:18, 11 February 2011 (EST)

'''Detour''' seems to be saying this guy shouldn't be in ROTF (unless I misinterpreted; he seems to say "a mention in a UK comic's letters page doesn't count as Sentinel's existence in ROTF").

The Leader class Sentinel Prime looks something like the RID Prime, and is from a live action movie. Thus, Live-action Hyper Goldfish.

'''Soundwave''', the Decepticon communications officer and one of [[Megatron (Movie)|Megatron]]'s staunchest supporters, doesn't just master the frequencies that carry information across our planet, he revels in them. Stationed high in the upper atmosphere and capable of processing millions of data streams at once, he is fully capable of taking over communications on a planetary scale. Whether he uses this to direct civilization or destroy it remains to be seen.

Soundwave has two extremely powerful weapons: his spread of [[Sonic Cannon]]s... and Megatron. If any Decepticon crosses him, he does not hesitate to send a full record of said Decepticon's failures to Megatron, almost certainly ensuring an untimely demise. His lofty position has made [[Starscream (Movie)|Starscream]] suspicious, so Soundwave has his minion [[Ravage (ROTF)|Ravage]] keep an eye on the [[Air Commander]] if he gets out of hand. Soundwave is also nearly defenseless in space, as his devastating Sonic Cannons only work within the atmosphere.<ref>[http://www.hasbro.com/transformers/en_US/discover/Battle-Bios.cfm Hasbro Soundwave Battle Bio]</ref>

Soundwave was assigned by [[Megatron (Movie)|Megatron]] to take command of the newly built ''[[Nemesis (ROTF)|Nemesis]]'' with the sarcophagus containing [[The Fallen]]. Soundwave's task was to find a planet with a star [[Star harvester|harvester]] that could be used to free their mysterious benefactor. Soundwave left [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]] just before the outbreak of war. {{storylink|Defiance issue 4}}

[[Image:SoundwaveAllianceIssue2.jpg|right|300px|thumb|Alas, poor Dreadwing. I knew him, Ravage.]]

Presumed dead for years, Soundwave arrived on [[Mars (planet)|Mars]] one month after Megatron's death. He quickly took stock of the situation, scanning both [[Dreadwing (Movie)|Dreadwing's]] remains, and an imprint of [[Frenzy (Movie)|Frenzy's]] body. He contacted [[Starscream (Movie)|Starscream]] after his battle with [[Wreckage (Movie)|Wreckage]], learning of the loss of Megatron and the AllSpark, while informing Starscream that he had sent troops from his ship to Earth, with more waiting in stasis. As Starscream headed for the ship, Soundwave informed him he still had orders to follow. {{storylink|Alliance issue 2}} As more and more Decepticons made planetfall on Earth's surface, Soundwave assumed the form of a satellite and silently observed their operations from orbit. {{Storylink|Alliance issue 4}}

===Titan Magazines ''Revenge of the Fallen'' comics===
Soundwave appears unknown to the Autobots.{{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 2.4|New Tricks}} He commanded a small Decepticon cell, based out of [[Mars (planet)|Mars]]' moon [[Phobos]]. While nominally under the command of [[The Fallen]], The Fallen is merely in ''contact'' with the Decepticons and currently incapacitated. This left Soundwave free to do his ''own'' thing... {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 2.8|Back-to-Back}}

[[Image:Titan4_Soundwaveinterrogate.jpg|left|thumb|200px|Help me, Obi-Wan Kenobi, you're my only... Oops, wrong movie.]]

One of his goals was to find the location of the [[Tomb of the Primes]]. The aging [[Seeker (ROTF)|Seeker]] [[Ransack (ROTF)|Ransack]] knew it but would only tell it to The Fallen. ''Strangely'' unwilling to put The Fallen and Ransack in touch and ''oddly'' prefering to personally know the location of [[Matrix of Leadership|the key to a monstrous superweapon]] himself {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 2.8|Back-to-Back}}, Soundwave turned to the dormant Seekers instead. He directed [[Grindor (ROTF)|Grindor]] to [[Las Vegas]] to carve up one such Seeker for its "memory tree". He refused to explain the reason ''why'' to Grindor. When [[NEST]] showed up, Soundwave appeared contemptuous of them and their [[Human|whole species]], noting Transformers owned this world ''long'' before mankind. To Grindor, he simply said to get the memory tree to him and not get captured. {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 2.3|Learning Curve}}

Later, [[Transformers Comic issue 2.2|on The Fallen's orders]], he directed [[Ravage (ROTF)|Ravage]] to find [[Skids (ROTF)|Skids]] and [[Mudflap (ROTF)|Mudflap]], find out what they knew about The Fallen's plans and who they'd told it to, and then terminate them. When Ravage had cornered Mudflap, Soundwave talked through him and attempted to interrogate the Autobot; this failed, with Mudflap not even being bothered about who Soundwave was. While the hit was a bust, Soundwave ensured the base was bugged. As a result, he discovered [[Sideswipe (ROTF)|Sideswipe]] distrusted the twins.

[[Image:Titan6_SoundwaveIAm.jpg|right|thumb|250px|"[[Sanctuary|There you go]], fellas!"]]

This was something Soundwave found interesting {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 2.4|New Tricks}} and he hatched a plan to ensure the twins were believed to be traitors: which would ensure nobody would follow up on their intell! Somehow, he got [[Scorponok (Movie)|Scorponok]] to [[Diego Garcia]] at the same time the twins were there. He then had [[Sideways (ROTF)|Sideways]] get captured, so that when he was taken to [[Diego Garcia]] Scorponok would free him. With the Decepticon attacking at the same time the twins were distracting Optimus and on top of previous acts, they seemed guilty and were taken into custody. {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 2.5|Reversal of Fortune}} Soundwave sent [[Starscream (Movie)|Starscream]] to blow up the soldiers escorting the twins to orbitary exile, and [[Wheelie (ROTF)|Wheelie]] parachuted in to convince them to defect. When [[Bumblebee (Movie)|Bumblebee]] tracked down the twins - who had kidnapped [[Sam Witwicky]] in a failed attempt to convince him to speak to Optimus on their behalf - Soundwave finally landed on Earth and blasted the scout. Soundwave told the twins The Fallen would offer them sanctuary, something they seemed happy to accept... {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 2.6|Outlaw Blues}}

[[Image:Titan7_Soundwave_GO!.jpg|left|thumb|200px|]]

Poor Soundwave soon had to put ''up'' with the twins, as they insisted on chatting through his briefings and dissing the other 'cons. He ''just'' about, through ominous glares, got them to pay attention to their mission: to capture Ransack and bring him in to be "re-educated". This, however, was all a big con on the twins: he just wanted them as expendable bait to draw out Ransack, so Grindor and Sideways could knock him out. Soundwave also spoke for the entire Decepticons when he said that if the twins survived any encounter, ''kill them anyway''. {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 2.7|Turnabout}}

[[Image:Titan8_Soundwave_FWATT.jpg|right|thumb|200px|KERPOW!]]

Once Ransack was in his hands, Soundwave beat the snot out of him and demanded the location to the Tomb of the Primes. The Seeker still refused to talk, and insulted Soundwave as being a mere cog who could barely understand the big picture. He almost killed Ransack for that, having to be held back by Starscream (don't want The Fallen ''knowing'' you've killed his Seeker!), but the elder continued to mock him for believing he had freedom of action just because The Fallen was absent.

When the twins, revealed to have been faking their defection, returned to beat the crap out of the Phobos base, an annoyed Soundwave ended their brief success with overwhelming violence. Unfortunately, before he could kill the Autobots, Ransack took the opportunity to leg it; desperate to stop The Fallen from being informed of what he'd been up to, Soundwave gave chase and the Phobos base was abandoned. {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 2.8|Back-to-Back}} As he's still around later, it seems Soundwave made ''sure'' Ransack never made it to The Fallen...

Soundwave received a transmission from [[Wheelie (ROTF)|Wheelie]], who was tailing [[Mikaela Banes]], and instructed him to obtain a surviving shard of the [[AllSpark|AllSpark]] in her possession. He found a satellite transmitting a conversation between [[NEST]] and the [[United States military]]. Tapping into it with his tentacles to listen, Soundwave overheard [[Theodore Galloway]] mention another shard of the AllSpark in storage at [[Diego Garcia]], and of [[Megatron (Movie)|Megatron]]'s burial in the [[Laurentian Abyss]].

[[Image:ROTF Soundwave ejects Ravage.jpg|thumb|left|300px|Ravage: Eject. Operation: [[Ruined FOREVER|Childhood rape]].]]

Formulating a plan, Soundwave waited until it would be nightfall on Diego Garcia, then ejected [[Ravage (ROTF)|Ravage]] (who was equipped with [[Scalpel (ROTF)|Scalpel]] and the [[Microcon (ROTF)|microcons]] comprising [[Reedman]]) to Diego Garcia to steal the shard. Once they had stolen the shard, they reunited with some [[Constructicon (ROTF)|Constructicons]] and managed to resurrect their leader.

Soundwave remained in space, tapping into the satellite he had found. When Megatron decided to reveal the Transformers presence on Earth after killing [[Optimus Prime (Movie)|Optimus Prime]], Soundwave issued the mobilization order to the waiting troops on the ''[[Nemesis (ROTF)|Nemesis]]''. As the Decepticons streaked toward Earth, Soundwave tracked down [[Ron Witwicky|Ron]] and [[Judy Witwicky]] in [[France|Paris]]. He called Judy on her cellphone, demanding to know where Sam was, which the human dismissed as a crank call by a pervert. This allowed the Decepticons to track them down and capture them to use as bait for Sam.

[[Image:SoundwaveSatellite.jpg|thumb|300px|Yes, yes, you fans all thought about ''[[Kiss Players (franchise)|Kiss Players]]'' when you saw me do this.]]

When the CIA discovered that Sam was in [[Egypt]], Soundwave relayed the information to the Decepticons. During [[Operation: Firestorm]], Soundwave blocked the satellites covering the Egyptian area, making things appear normal. General [[Morshower]] was unconvinced though and got other local informants to know what was happening at the [[pyramid]]s. {{storylink|Revenge of the Fallen (film)}}

Soundwave detected [[Ravage (ROTF)|Ravage]] was alive and active, and was furious someone else was ordering his pet around. {{storylink|Tales of the Fallen issue 5}} Monitoring Earth, he observed [[Alice]]'s attempt at flight and subsequent termination by [[NEST]]. [[Buzzsaw (ROTF)|Buzzsaw]], who he'd dispatched to [[Kingdom Petrochemicals]] to investigate Ravage's status, reported back that there were non-NEST humans poking around there, so Soundwave sent in [[Ratbat (ROTF)|Ratbat]], [[Rumble (ROTF)|Rumble]] and [[Beastbox (ROTF)|Beastbox]] to attack. Surprisingly [[Initiative|the humans]] were a match for the Decepticons, and Soundwave moved in to take direct action, however at that point the Autobots arrived. Soundwave destroyed [[Breakaway (ROTF)|Breakaway]], but when the human forces pulled out, so too did Soundwave. To his surprise, he found he wasn't able to track where the departing humans had gone. {{storylink|Nefarious issue 1|Nefarious #1}}

[[Image:Nefarious3 Soundwave bondage.jpg|thumb|left|300px]]
Ravage was reactivated by Buzzsaw, allowing Soundwave to access his memories. Acting on one memory, he sent Buzzsaw to help [[Strike Team Ursa]] while he rendezvoused with Ravage for an examination. When Strike Team Ursa triggered defenses, Soundwave warned them to withdraw. They did, but ran into [[Ironhide (Movie)|Ironhide]] and [[Sideswipe (ROTF)|Sideswipe]], and Soundwave was forced to come to their aid. Unfortunately Optimus Prime was also on the way, and Soundwave was no match for the Autobot leader. He tried to suggest it would be advantageous for them to let him go, but Optimus took him into custody. {{storylink|Nefarious issue 2|Nefarious #2}} Soundwave was secured and put on a plane bound for [[Odessa]], [[Texas]], however the plane was shot down by Buzzsaw, and then [[Bumblebee (Movie)|Bumblebee]]'s team had [[Dirt Boss (ROTF)|Dirt Boss]] and Soundwave's minions to contend with as well. Soundwave tried to get Ravage to free him, but the cat's free will was overridden by an external force. In the end, Soundwave was too much trouble and Bumblebee let the Decepticons have him back. {{storylink|Nefarious issue 3|Nefarious #3}}

Soundwave tracked Ravage back to the [[Initiative base]] in [[California]]. After sending the other Decepticons in first to test the base's defenses, he moved in himself, only to find that the foe he faced had an army of brainwashed Transformers. He somehow escaped them and proceeded to the NEST base in Odessa. {{storylink|Nefarious issue 4|Nefarious #4}} He led the Autobots to the base's location, though he "neglected" to tell them about the brainwashed Transformers, but the base was gone, leading to the conclusion it was somehow mobile. Tapping into traffic cameras, he traced the base to [[Oregon]]. When they got there and began the assault, Soundwave was snootily dismissive of the Autobots' combat banter. {{storylink|Nefarious issue 5|Nefarious #5}} While the Initiative was distracted, Soundwave was able to reactivate Ravage and send [[Reedman]] to attack Initiatve head [[Carter Newell]]. When Newell tried to flee with the AllSpark, Soundwave ordered Buzzsaw to assist Optimus Prime in pursuing him.

While Ironhide headed outside to face Bludgeon, Bumblebee remained inside to guard the Autobots' precious [[datatrax|data tracks]] from Soundwave. Bumblebee fired shot after shot, but Soundwave was able to simply use his sonic powers to repel the attacks back towards Bumblebee. However, Bumblebee gambled that Soundwave would be unable to repel a great number of attacks simultaneously, and the Decepticon was overwhelmed by Bumblebee's automatic weaponry. {{storylink|Cyber Missions 1}} Bumblebee confined Soundwave inside a vacuum-sealed electromagnetic bubble, where his sonic weaponry would be useless. {{storylink|Cyber Missions 2}}

Instructed by Megatron to "hound" humans and "get up close and personal" in his attacks, Soundwave cut a swathe of destruction across the North Atlantic, destroying ships as he headed on a course towards Florida. Identifying his pattern, [[William Lennox]] and [[Robert Epps]] staged an ambush, laying out a cargo ship for Soundwave to attack and then blindsiding him with a volley from a hidden warship. Badly damaged in the surprise assault, Soundwave was forced to retreat, venturing into the confines of...the [[Bermuda Triangle]]! (Dun dun dunnnn!)

[[Image:Titan15_Soundwaveghostship.jpg|left|thumb|250px|Bustin' makes ghosts feel good!]]

Amidst the storm clouds, Soundwave discovered another ship that he decided to attack out of spite, but faltered when his databanks identified it as a [[United States Navy]] vessel that had been lost in [[1918]]. Caught off-guard by a volley of primitive weaponsfire (even for humans!) and damaged even further, Soundwave tried to limp away, only to cross paths with ''another'' mystery ship, this one allegedly from [[1941]]! Pelted from both sides and unable to get a handle on his situation, Soundwave fled high into the air, out of the ships' range...and right in the path of a squadron of [[World War II]] bombers! Rattled by their machine gun fire and unable to overcome their superior flying skills, Soundwave decided to break upwards...''all'' the way upwards. Whatever strange chronal chaos he had encountered in the depths of the Bermuda Triangle, Soundwave concluded that the solar radiation, meteor showers and space debris he would face on the ''[[Moon (moon)|moon]]'' would be ''much'' safer! {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 2.15|Making Waves}}

However, instead of the silver colour scheme established on his regular release toys and movie appearance, the character model was coloured blue, like [[Generation 1 (franchise)|Generation 1]] [[Soundwave (G1)|Soundwave]] and the [[Toys"R"Us]]-[[exclusive]] Soundwave figure from the ''Gathering at Nemesis'' figure pack. His special attack in robot mode consisted of a deployable turret that generated earthquakes, a reference to [[Rumble (G1)|Rumble]], who was one of Generation 1 Soundwave's tape minions. While using his special in vehicle mode deployed a radar jammer pod in the sky that also fired a laser at nearby enemies, a likely reference to Laserbeak, another of Generation 1 Soundwave's tape minions.}}

===Revenge of the Fallen===
====Legends Class toys====
*'''Soundwave''' (Legends, 2009)
[[Image:ROTFLegends Soundwave.jpg|right|300px|thumb|No matter what mode you put him in, he is always ready to get down and dirty with unsuspecting satellites.]]

: Part of the fifth wave of ''[[Revenge of the Fallen (toyline)|Revenge of the Fallen]]'' [[Legends Class]] figures, Soundwave transforms into a simplified version of his satellite alt mode which is notable for being more movie-accurate than his Deluxe Class toy. The satellite head is completely covered in blue, however.

{{-}}

*'''Infiltrator Soundwave''' (EZ Collection, 2010)

: In Japan, Legends class Soundwave was [[redeco]]ed to match the colors of Deluxe Infiltration Soundwave (see below). He was part of the Japanese ''[[Transformers Animated (franchise)|Transformers Animated]]'' promotion, and was only available to those who bought the Voyager "[[Optimus Prime (Animated)|Optimus Prime]] VS [[Megatron (Animated)|Megatron]]" set at amazon.jp and Yamada Denki stores.

====Deluxe Class toys====
[[Image:Soundwaverotfpreviewtoy.jpg|right|300px|thumb|War fork!]]
*'''Soundwave''' (Deluxe, 2009)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''RD-04'''
**''Accessories:'' 1 Ravage missile

:Part of the initial Movie Preview wave, Soundwave is a [[Triple Changer]], transforming into a satellite and a Cybertron jet, which are not exactly what could be described as "distinct" from one another. In all three modes, Soundwave features a spring-loaded missile launcher which fires a missile intended to resemble [[Ravage (ROTF)|Ravage]], in reference to the scene in the film in which he launches the feline fiend down at Earth. In his (rather stocky) robot mode, Soundwave has blue light piping in his visor, but it is disabled, having been painted over in red; his other modes feature a second, armored version of his face, which is stored on the back of his robot mode. Probably to avoid giving the toy a very obviously two-headed robot mode, the alternate face lacks any paint details, and has an unpainted blue visor. Soundwave features numerous red and gold [[Paint operation|paint application]]s which are ''very'' cleverly and subtly positioned around his body to replicate similarly-colored and -positioned details on the [[Soundwave (G1)|original Soundwave toy]].

:The configuration for the satellite mode depicted in the toy's instructions is not the way Soundwave appears in the film, featuring a different angling for the panels on his shoulders. It's not a big change, but transforming the toy in accordance with his movie appearance ''does'' help to distinguish the jet from the satellite a little, since otherwise, virtually the only difference is in the positioning of the large panel "wings".

*'''Gathering at Nemesis''' (Figure multi-pack, 2009)
**''Accessories:'' 1 Ravage missile

: A [[Toys"R"Us]]-[[exclusive]] three pack (technically four pack if you want to count the Ravage missile), also featuring The Fallen, and a silver Voyager Class Megatron from the first movie toyline. Soundwave is [[redeco]]ed in predominantly blue as an homage to the [[Soundwave (G1)|original Soundwave]]. The Fallen was unchanged from his original release.

*'''Soundwave Black Version''' (Deluxe, 2009)
**''Accessories:'' 1 Ravage missile
:Exclusive to the 2009 "C3 X Hobby Chara Hobby" show that ran across [[August 29]]-[[August 30|30]] in Japan, Soundwave Black Version is a redeco of the deluxe ''Revenge of the Fallen'' Soundwave toy in black and red with orange highlights. Following the convention, remaining quantities of the figure were made available to purchase via lottery through the [[E-Hobby|e-Hobby]] website.

*'''Battlefield Bumblebee Vs. Infiltration Soundwave''' (Deluxe 2-pack, 2010)
**''Accessories:'' 1 Ravage missile

:Part of the [[N.E.S.T. Global Alliance]] campaign, Infiltration Soundwave is another redeco of the Deluxe Class Soundwave mold, this time in dark blue and dark gray, plus bright red that simulates the intense heat of orbital reentry. He also comes with new light-piping that ''isn't'' painted over. He comes with Battlefield Bumblebee, a retooling of Cannon Bumblebee with a new battlemask head. Also included in the packaging is a "Mission Guide" catalog and ordering form for the mail-in exclusive Recon Ravage, a "starter sticker" for said ordering form, and a N.E.S.T. Global Alliance iron-on patch. Two additional stickers from specially-marked N.E.S.T. Global Alliance products and $4.95 shipping are required for the promotion. Sadly, this promotion does not exist in Europe or Australia, but Recon Ravage was made available in the latter country as a Toys R Us exclusive. Surprisingly, the package does not recognize his Cybertron jet mode, instead only acknowledging his satellite mode. His instructions ''do'' still mention his jet mode, though.

*'''Seeking Soundwave''' (2009)
**'''Accessories:''' 2 blue solar panels
:The [[Burger King]] version of Soundwave is a representation of the communications satellite which Soundwave hacked into in the movie. The dishes have tendril details added to them. Peering into an opening in the top gives a sort of periscope effect, although as there is only one mirror, everything looks backwards.

{{-}}

===RPMs - Robot Powered Machines===
*'''Soundwave''' (2010)
**''Series:'' '''Metal Heroes'''
**''Number:'' '''04 of 08''' (only 6 released)

:''[[Robot Powered Machines]]'' Soundwave is a small, non-transforming pseudo-Scion XB with his robot mode sculpted underneath. Said robot mode resembles [[Soundwave (Prime)|another Soundwave]] for some reason. The car's wheels feature through-axle construction for speedy racing on flat surfaces. Unlike other RPMs, Soundwave, along with the rest of the Metal Heroes, is made of [[die-cast]] metal.

:This toy features many differences in comparison to the [[Speed Stars]] release. Namely, the Speed Stars version lacks paint in the doors, as well as the chest, arms, legs and face of the "robot" mode, unlike the RPM release that has this fully painted. The plastic in the bottom of the car is cast in a different color: the RPM version is bronze while the Speed Stars version is golden. In addition, the RPM release has "Soundwave-Audio" written on the inferior part of the doors as well as having the tail lights painted (in red).

:RPM Soundwave is probably the most contradictory Transformer ever produced: he has [[Soundwave (Animated)|''Animated'' Soundwave]] alt mode and a mix between his regular and Electrostatic incarnations "tattoos", [[Soundwave (Prime)|''War for Cybertron'' Soundwave]] robot mode (which in turn was heavily based in [[Soundwave (G1)|G1 Soundwave]]) and despite this, the bio and toyline clearly identifies him as ROTF Soundwave. You can try and add [[Soundwave (Cybertron)|Cybertron Soundwave]] to the list if you want, but that would be overkill.

:This toy's American release and the rest of the Metal Heroes were canceled in favor of the [[Speed Stars]] versions of the toys. They have been released in the Philippines, New Zealand and Mexico (at a discounted price compared to past RPM releases), however. Both versions were eventually available at retail in those countries.

:Speed Stars Soundwave is a [[redeco]] of the RPM vehicle. All differences between the two releases are listed above.

====Stealth Force====
[[Image:SpeedStars_StealthForce_Soundwave_toy.jpg|thumb|right|300px|Three continuities for the price of one!]]
*'''Soundwave''' (Basic, 2010)

:This Soundwave toy is part of the "Stealth Force" subline, consisting of vehicles without robot modes, but with plenty of flip-out panels with hidden weapons. Like the smaller Metal Heroes toy, Soundwave has ''Animated'' Soundwave's Scion XB altmode and features ''War for Cybertron'' Soundwave on his packaging. He features non-firing weapons hidden all throughout the toy, activated by pulling part of the roof back.

==Notes==
[[Image:EarlyMovieBlackout.jpg|right|200px|thumb|A Soundwave-headed Blackout from an animatic.]]
[[Image:ROTFEarthSoundwaveConcept.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Soundwave, before losing his weight.]]
* Soundwave was originally supposed to feature in [[Transformers (2007)|''Transformers'']]; he fulfilled both [[Barricade (Movie)|Barricade]] and [[Frenzy (Movie)|Frenzy]]'s roles, hacking into the CIA headquarters as a portable stereo, then [[size changing|morphed]] into a Humvee to track down [[Sam Witwicky]].<ref>Details from an early script draft [http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/showpost.php?p=2213120&postcount=297 summed up here], [http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/showpost.php?p=2214148&postcount=303 confirmed as authentic by Roberto Orci here].</ref> [[Michael Bay]]'s decision to minimalize the amount of morphing in the film resulted in a change to a helicopter who openly attacks the army. Soundwave and [[Ravage (ROTF)|Ravage]] were changed to [[Blackout (Movie)|Blackout]] and [[Scorponok (Movie)|Scorponok]] as the film's location was changed from a jungle to a desert.<ref>[http://boards.transformersmovie.com/showpost.php?p=234188&postcount=2008 Roberto Orci confirms that Ravage was replaced by Scorponok at the official movie boards]</ref><ref>[http://boards.transformersmovie.com/showpost.php?p=234188&postcount=2008 Roberto Orci confirms that Ravage would have appeared in a different terrain at the official movie boards]
</ref> Soundwave's name remained attached to the separated portable stereo character for a while, but Hasbro felt the resulting character did not properly represent the original Soundwave—he was first renamed Soundbite, but eventually ended up with the name Frenzy.

*According to the trade paperback, Soundwave was a major character in the third draft of ''[[The Reign of Starscream]]''.

* In early drafts of ''Revenge of the Fallen'', Soundwave came to Earth and scanned a black Chevrolet Silverado pick-up truck form. Artist [[Paul Ozzimo]] created a visualization of this idea, and Hasbro based the Cybertronian satellite form's robot mode on this abandoned concept, particularly a Cybertronian version of the Chevy grill and small headlights on the lower torso. They then combined Ozzimo's body design with an unused, heavily G1-esque head design that had been created by artist [[Josh Nizzi]] (although Soundwave's finalized head design was also incorporated into the toy's satellite mode, in a manner akin to [[kibble#Faux parts|faux parts]]).

*Hasbro's description and arrangement of Soundwave's toy as a triple changer runs counter to the filmmakers' intent to introduce the technology in the next film.<ref>[http://www.tfw2005.com/transformers-news/transformers-movie-just-movie-31/transformers-revenge-of-the-fallen-will-not-feature-triple-changers-165854/ News from TFW2005.com on September 23, 2008,] detailing [[Roberto Orci]]'s confirmation that there would be no triple-changers in ''Revenge of the Fallen''.</ref>

*Even though [[Frank Welker]] returned to voice Soundwave for the movie, his voice was not vocoded, but rather synthesized in the same way all the other Transformer voices in the movie were. Because of this, the voice he uses is much closer to that of "The Cave of Wonders" from [[Wikipedia:Aladdin (film)|Walt Disney's ''Aladdin'']], Dr. Claw from ''Inspector Gadget'' and Darkseid from The Super Powers Team: Galactic Guardians, all voiced by Welker. However, in the ''Revenge of the Fallen'' video game, Soundwave's voice ([[Peter Jessop]]) is vocoded in a manner similar to that of ''[[Transformers Animated (franchise)|Animated]]'' [[Soundwave (Animated)|Soundwave]]'s first voice, only with a more musical tone.

*[[Frank Welker]] voiced Soundwave not only in the English version of ''Revenge of the Fallen'', but also in a large number of foreign dubs, including the Italian one. Welker described the process as "very hard".<ref name="welkernewsarama">[http://www.newsarama.com/tv/090915-Animated-Shorts-Welker.html Newsarama interview with Frank Welker], September 2009.</ref> Althouth Welker is also credited in the German dub of the movie, German dubbing insiders insist that the voice heard in the actual movie is by someone else ([[Horst Lampe]], who also dubbed ''[[Transformers Animated (cartoon)|Animated]]'' [[Ratchet (Animated)|Ratchet]]), presumably as a last-minute decision because Welker's "German" performance was considered sub-standard.<ref name="germandub">[http://215072.homepagemodules.de/t511643f11775323-Transformers-Die-Rache-Transformers-Revenge-of-the-Fallen-7.html German dubbing board thread about ROTF, with a discussion about Soundwave's voice]</ref>. Welker is also credited in the Latin American-Spanish dub (which character he voiced is not listed, but it was most likely Soundwave, or he could have been credited for Devastator, Ravage, Grindor and Reedman, since all the sounds Welker did for them were kept in the Latin American-Spanish dub).

* Soundwave is unique among the Decepticons introduced in ''Revenge of the Fallen'' because he survives. ([[Scalpel (ROTF)|Scalpel]]'s fate is ambiguous in the film itself but he was clearly scrapped in the [[Revenge of the Fallen (novel)|two]] [[Revenge of the Fallen issue 2|adaptations]]). All the others are presumably killed, meaning if all our information only came from the films, then the only Decepticons alive are the original triad of Megatron, Starscream and Soundwave, along with the oft-overlooked [[Barricade (Movie)|Barricade]].

* Soundwave was included as a downloadable addition to the roster of the Revenge of the Fallen Playstation 3 and Xbox 360 video game, along with several ''[[Generation 1 (franchise)|Generation 1]]'' homages and fellow movie character [[Sideswipe (ROTF)|Sideswipe]]. Soundwave's special abilities deploy an aerial jammer pod that looks suspiciously like [[Laserbeak (G1)|Laserbeak]], and an AOE pod that continuously smashes the ground with piledrivers; undoubtedly a nod to Generation 1 [[Soundwave (G1)|Soundwave]]'s minion [[Rumble (G1)|Rumble]]. According to concept artist [[Ken Christiansen]], his appearance was based more closely on the Deluxe class toy than his movie design.

When the Autobots need some [[Decepticon]] sensors scrambled, they call in their chief diversionary tactician, '''Smokescreen'''. With an array of specially designed weapons and tools at his disposal, ranging from sonic burst weapons to magnetic smoke bombs and oil slicks, this 'bot is a master of distraction.

[[Image:Defiance3_Smokescreen_Prime.jpg|left|thumb|150px|]]
Many years ago, Smokescreen was a member of the Cybertronian defense force under the command of [[Megatron (Movie)|Protector Megatron]]. After the discovery of [[The Fallen|ancient relic]] and an alien attack on [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]] {{storylink|Defiance issue 1}}, Protector Megatron changed the military's mission of defense to one of offensive war. {{storylink|Defiance issue 2}} Smokescreen was sent with [[Prowl (Movie)|Prowl]] and other security officers to arrest science division leader [[Optimus Prime (Movie)|Optimus]] on trumped-up charges of treason. What they didn't know was the military was leading all of them into a trap, and that all bar Optimus were marked for death. After the group was shelled by [[Brawl (Movie)|Brawl]], Smokescreen laid down a [[Disruption Cloud]] to cover their escape, though he was concerned for Optimus's safety against so many enemies. Optimus merely replied that he would "make do" - by dropping a city on Starscream's would-be assassins. {{Storylink|Defiance issue 3}}

[[Image:ReignofStarscream3 AirRaid Smokescreen die.jpg|200px|thumb|]]

After the fugitives established a hide out at [[Burthov]], Smokescreen acted as a sentry guard and assisted [[Bumblebee (Movie)|Bumblebee]] in the capture of the disenchanted [[Ironhide (Movie)|Ironhide]]. Later, as the civil war came to a climax, Optimus Prime revealed his plan to capture the [[AllSpark (Movie)|All Spark]] and ferry it away aboard the ''[[Ark (Movie)|Ark]]''. As it turned out, Prime's real plan was to blast the Cube into deep space, buying the Autobots valuable time, and then chase after it in their ship. Smokescreen was one of those who volunteered to crew the ship during the search. {{storylink|Defiance issue 4}}

Thousands of years later, following the defeat of Megatron on [[Earth]], Smokescreen was part of a small Autobot unit led by [[Arcee (Movie)|Arcee]] that tracked [[Starscream (Movie)|Starscream]], now the leader of the [[Decepticon|Decepticons]], to his base on [[Mars (planet)|Mars]]. {{storylink|The Reign of Starscream Issue Number Two|The Reign of Starscream #2}} After laying down a diversionary [[Ion Cloud]], Smokescreen and the others made short work of the [[Swindle (Movie)|Swindle]], [[Dreadwing (Movie)|Dreadwing]], and [[Payload (Movie)|Payload]] drones that the Decepticons sent against them. He narrowly escaped being sniped by [[Hardtop (Movie)|Hardtop]], thanks to Arcee, but soon fell victim to [[Thundercracker (Movie)|Thundercracker]]'s sonic weaponry. He attempted to evacuate the fallen [[Air Raid (Movie)|Air Raid]], but they were both blown to oblivion by Starscream. {{storylink|The Reign of Starscream issue 3|The Reign of Starscream #3}}

Smokescreen, along with [[Brawn (ROTF)|Brawn]] and [[Wideload (ROTF)|Wideload]], had the misfortune to be on duty at [[NEST]]'s [[South Africa|South African]] prison when [[Bludgeon (ROTF)|Bludgeon]] staged a jailbreak! He worried that the Decepticons would find a way past their inhibitor clamps (they did), worried they couldn't hold the Decepticons without back-up (they couldn't), ''really'' worried when Brawn said to take cover behind him only to be knocked down, and was told he should be worrying more by a Decepticon who smashed him into the ground. Luckily, reinforcements arrived before Smokescreen could be killed. {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 2.13|Inside Out!}}

Smokescreen, at some point, was captured, possibly ressurected and brainwashed by the [[Initiative]] into being one of their soldiers. His colours were bleached out and he was thrown at an Autobot/[[NEST]] team in the Initiative's final battle. {{storylink|Nefarious issue 5}} {{storylink|Nefarious issue 6}}

Along with the other brainwashed Autobots, he was eager to return to battle but Optimus told them they still needed to recuperate after the mental trauma they'd suffered. {{storylink|Rising Storm issue 1}}

Smokescreen was among the Autobots that stayed on NEST, While Optimus Prime and his team went to save [[Sam Witwicky]] from a Decepticon attack, he, along with the others, was killed by [[Shockwave (Movie)|Shockwave]]. {{storylink|Rising Storm issue 3}}

==Games==
===3D Battle-Card Game===
Armed with a disruptor rifle, jamming missiles and the ability to produce smokescreens, Smokescreen fought alongside his fellow Autobots against the Decepticons... or sometimes alongside Decepticons against his fellow Autobots. Nobody was particularly loyal during this conflict. Under the command of [[Optimus Primal]], Smokescreen may also have fought in the "Energon Wars" against [[Megatron (BW)|Predacon Megatron]]'s troops. {{storylink|3D Battle-Card Game}}

: A [[redeco]] of [[Jazz (Movie)#Fast Action Battlers|"Ion Blast" Autobot Jazz]], "Sonic Shock" Smokescreen sports a red and blue colour scheme based very closely upon [[Generation 1 (franchise)|Generation 1]] [[Smokescreen (G1)|Smokescreen]]. In vehicle mode he's kind of a squat and cutified Pontiac Solstice, while in robot mode he bears a decent resemblance to various Generation 1 hood-chest Transformers. Amusingly, [[Fast Action Battlers]] Smokescreen's head is mounted on a piece of plastic extending from the roof/windshield piece, just like the [[Smokescreen (G1)#Toys|original Generation 1 Smokescreen toy]]. His articulation is limited to his shoulders, hips and knees, and he has a spring-loaded missile launcher in place of his left hand.

**''Card number'': '''12'''

: Smokescreen is a 29-point "Uncommon" piece in the [[3D Battle-Card Game]]. Constructed of punch-out pieces from randomly-packed plastic cards (two full robots per pack), he can be assembled into his car mode, or into a rather stumpy robot mode. One of his blaster-weapons is held in his right hand, the other can mount on either shoulder. His design is largely based on [[Smokescreen (G1)|''Alternators'' Smokescreen]], except without all the rally markings.

: He uses the same construction as the [[Cliffjumper (Movie)|Cliffjumper]] and Jazz cards. This style is similar to the one used by [[Barricade (Movie)|Barricade]], [[Earth]]-mode [[Bumblebee (Movie)|Bumblebee]], and [[Swerve (Movie)|Swerve]].

: This was actually the first "appearance" of the movieverse Smokescreen.

==Notes==
*Whilst looking virtually identical to Jazz, Smokescreen does have a few subtle differences in his IDW appearances. Mainly being his different weapons, as well as his face; his facial features look somewhat different from how Jazz is seen and his visor, which glows orange, appears to be permanently fixed into place, as opposed to Jazz whose visor can retract when need be. In Titan, he was given a mouthplate and a gun for an arm (recalling his [[Fast Action Battlers]] toy) to further distance the two 'bots visually.

Cortical psychic patch

2011-05-04T15:27:08Z

81.164.209.246: Undo revision 582780 by Alientraveller (Talk) excuse me, but why?

:''Cortical psychic patches are a technology from the [[Transformers: Prime (franchise)|Transformers: Prime]] portion of the [[Aligned continuity family|Aligned]] [[continuity family]].''

[[Image:Corticalpsychicpatchcable.jpg|300px|thumb|Now, where to hang this doohickey...]]

The [[Decepticon]]s developed the '''cortical psychic patch''' during the [[Great War (Prime)|Great War]]. It is a procedure through which the mind of one [[Transformer]] can be joined with another, using a cable connected directly between the two Transformers' brains. The procedure was banned by the [[Autobot]]s, though there are a substantial number of texts on the subject available to interested Autobot medics.

==Fiction==
===''Transformers: Prime''===
{{spoilers|Sick Mind|May 7, 2011}}
With [[Optimus Prime (Prime)|Optimus Prime]] infected with [[cybonic plague]] and time short, [[Ratchet (Prime)|Ratchet]] decided to try the procedure, though he had never previously attempted it himself. He talked [[Arcee (Prime)|Arcee]] through setting up a cortical psychic patch between [[Bumblebee (Prime)|Bumblebee]] and [[Megatron (Prime)|Megatron]], who at the time was lying comatose in the [[Nemesis (Prime)|Decepticon warship]]. The procedure succeeded, inserting Bumblebee into the replication of [[Kaon]] constructed by Megatron's subconscious, and Bumblebee was able to interact with Megatron and retrieve the formula for the plague cure. Arcee disconnected the patch, however Megatron was able to use the dying connection to jump into Bumblebee's head. {{storylink|Sick Mind}}

Magnus Inquiry

:''The Magnus Inquiry is an [[Autobot]] investigation from the [[Generation 1 (franchise)|Generation 1]] [[continuity family]].''

The '''Magnus Inquiry''' was an infamous investigation conducted in [[Room 113]] of the [[Kimia Facility]].

==Fiction==
===IDW Generation 1 comics continuity===
The Magnus Inquiry was an investigation by the [[Autobot High Command]] into the fact that [[Gideon's Glue]], the substance which brought such devastation on [[Flame (Marvel)|Flame]]'s original troop on [[Babu Yar]], had been created originally by an Autobot. The investigation was ultimately inconclusive, and no formal charges were filed. {{storylink|Bullets}}

:''Camshaft is an evil [[Autobot]] from the "[[Shattered Glass (franchise)|Shattered Glass]]" [[continuity family]].''
[[Image:Camshaftsg.jpg|right|thumb|300px|Time to troll your Kay-Bees.]]
'''Camshaft''' is a scout for the [[Autobot]]s and a member of [[Remote Patrol Six]]. He's eager for the chance to get to show off his stuff with some action. He is secretly loyal to [[Rodimus (SG)|Rodimus]] and [[Alpha Trion (SG)|Alpha Trion]]'s rebellion against [[Optimus Prime (SG)|Optimus Prime]].

==Fiction==
===Shattered Glass===
Camshaft, along with the rest of Remote Patrol Six, was dispatched to scan the [[Plait Expanse]]'s radiation in an attempt to escape [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]]. They were also harboring [[Hound (SG)|Hound]] from Optimus Prime, as Hound had faked his death when Rodimus and [[Goldbug (SG)|Goldbug]] threw everyone who was deemed too loyal to Prime off the ''[[Ark (SG)|Ark]]''.

When [[Sandstorm (SG)|Sandstorm]] discovered a signal coming from [[Zone Y-AT]], Hound thought he recognized it, and suggested that someone should check it out. Camshaft was eager to go, but Hound suggested that [[Downshift (SG)|Downshift]] go instead.

When Camshaft protested about Downshift "getting the glory" when he was "weak" and "not even one of—", Hound said that was the point, that 'bots like the rest of them needed to stick together. Especially since Hound thought he knew what was coming. {{storylink|Do Over}}

A while later, after [[Megatron (SG)|Megatron]] was assassinated, Camshaft and the rest of Remote Patrol Six made their move. They converged on Optimus Prime's position, intending to kill Optimus and install [[Rodimus (SG)|Rodimus]] in his place as Prime. Unfortunately, Optimus was stronger and crazier than they allowed for, and he easily fought them back. As Optimus plowed through Remote Patrol Six, Camshaft was dealt a possibly deadly cannon blast to the head. {{storylink|Reunification: Part 5}}

Soon

2011-05-04T14:07:44Z

81.164.209.246: Transformers 3 -> Dark of the Moon (film)

'''Soon''' is the name of the region in the time-domain (familiar to all marketing departments, and to the moderators and staff of [[Fun Publications]]) which sees release of all [[BotCon]] news, [[Transformers Collectors' Club|club]] [[Exclusive|exclusives]], and other fan desirables. Soon is when ''then'' will become ''now''.

[[Unicron Singularity|Peculiar properties of spacetime]] ensure that the [[Scale|perception of the magnitude]] of Soon is fluid and dependent, not on an individual's time-reference, but on spatial and [[Kiss Players (franchise)|cultural location]]. A marketer generally perceives Soon as a finite, known, yet unspeakable time-interval; to a fan, the interval appears greater, and may in fact approach the infinite, becoming [[Drench (Universe)|Never]]. Once the interval has passed, however, a certain time-lensing effect seems to occur, and the time-interval becomes [[Ravage (G1)/toys#Smallest_Transforming_Transformers|vanishingly small]]. We therefore see the strange result that the same fragment of spacetime may be observed, in quick succession, as [[Dark of the Moon (film)|Soon]], [[Transtech|Never]], and [[Transformers Animated (franchise)|All Too Quickly]].

== Daniel in Kiss Players ==

The note at the bottom says exactly where the bit about Daniel being frozen comes from. The timeline. KP presented a massive timeline of the G1 Japanese cartoon continuity that was probably the geekiest thing ever. --[[User:ItsWalky|ItsWalky]] 10:15, 30 January 2010 (EST)
:I know what the note ''says'', but if you look [[Generation_1_cartoon_timeline_(Japan)|at the timeline]]...it's not mentioned anywhere. - [[User:Chris McFeely|Chris McFeely]] 10:37, 30 January 2010 (EST)
::Aaarrgh, don't tell me that! I reference daniel's cryonic suspension in my Collectors' Club article.--[[User:Jimsorenson|Jimsorenson]] 11:27, 30 January 2010 (EST)
:::I believe it must be ''somewhere'', because it was Swift who added it, wasn't it? And Swift is like Layla Miller, with all the knowing of stuff. - [[User:Chris McFeely|Chris McFeely]] 12:13, 30 January 2010 (EST)
::::Perhaps it was mentioned in passing in one of the radio dramas? If we go that route at least no one could argue that it ''wasn't'' since, shit, ''nobody's'' listened to those things. --[[User:DrSpengler|DrSpengler]] 12:22, 30 January 2010 (EST)
:::::I've got a Japanese site bookmarked that summarizes all of them, and although it is all google-translated, I can't find anything that even ''resembles'' a reference to Daniel. - [[User:Chris McFeely|Chris McFeely]] 12:31, 30 January 2010 (EST)
::::::IIRC, there are actually two different published timelines. One was on the side of Autrooper's packaging, and I think the other was in the KissPlay/Teletraan Go! Go! compilation book... they varied on a few subtle details, IIRC. You may want to ask Swift to be sure. --[[User:Monzo|Monzo]] 16:48, 2 February 2010 (EST)

==Deathy's Resurrection==
Wait, why are you counting that as a story page? Wouldn't it just fall under toy bio/toy catalog continuity, like the time BW Megatron got smacked around by BWII Galvatron? (For that manner, since I assume it was internally produced by Takara, I don't know if we can safely say the art is by Ban Magami...) --[[User:Monzo|Monzo]] 16:48, 2 February 2010 (EST)
:Oh, well, I didn't put it on that page, it was there already. Given that it can't really work continuity-wise with the other story pages, it probably should be moved ''somewhere'' else, but I'm not sure where. - [[User:Chris McFeely|Chris McFeely]] 16:51, 2 February 2010 (EST)

==Fast Action Jackson==

Thanks for clarifying that only the first 3 waves of FABs were released in Japan and removing the fiction from the proper characters. But I have to ask, if Frenzy was released in Japan as an FAB, why'd you remove the fiction from ''his'' article? Also, should I go ahead and add the FAB/BW crossover fiction to *all* the characters who were released in the Telemocha line? Even...the BWII and Neo characters? Or just the ones on Energoa? --[[User:DrSpengler|DrSpengler]] 20:23, 25 February 2010 (EST)
:Oh, yeah, Frenzy wasn't either. I missed him and then went back. /:) I'm really not sure what to do about the BW characters, though... after all, the II and Neo characters wouldn't have been on Energoa... - [[User:Chris McFeely|Chris McFeely]] 20:26, 25 February 2010 (EST)
::Ahhh. Gotcha. Thanks. As for the Telemocha dudes, I guess I'll add the info regularly to the Energoa guys, but for the likes of Gimlet, Motorarm and Cohrada, I'll just add something like "They may or may not have been transported back in time to Energoa to fight in the Beast Wars there against invading Autobots and Decepticons from another dimension" or something to that effect. With all the damn Blasty Zone time travel bullshit that goes on in the Japanese timeline, it probably isn't too out of the question that they went there for a second and came back somehow. --[[User:DrSpengler|DrSpengler]] 21:08, 25 February 2010 (EST)

== Clip show ==

Hey, Chris I have a G1 Headmasters clip show that does not appear anywhere, I tried to add it but you changed all that. What do I need to do to add it? - [[User:Crisdecal|Crisdecal]] 09, July 2010.
:The episode you were trying to add already has [[Fight!! Super Ginrai|an article]]. Add the info there. - [[User:Chris McFeely|Chris McFeely]] 05:50, 9 July 2010 (EDT)
::You don't understand. It's a completely different episode. It's not Headmasters episode 43. It's different. The title is even slightly different. I have most recap episodes and trust me, its not any of the ones here. - [[User:Crisdecal|Crisdecal]]
::::That would be ''Masterforce'', I think you mean, rather than Headmasters. Unless that's what's causing your confusion. And I think we would need to see some proof of this, because every episode list for Masterforce, up to an including those published in Japanese guidebooks, only includes 47 episodes. - [[User:Chris McFeely|Chris McFeely]] 06:27, 9 July 2010 (EDT)
:::::Your right. I meant Masterforce. I've uploaded 2 pics to this site. I'm new to this site so how do I show them to you? -[[User:Crisdecal|Crisdecal]]
::::::It's okay, I can see them on the recent changes page. I'm not sure what I'm looking at there with the second image - that's a title card from a VICTORY DVD set. Why is a Masterforce episode on a Victory set? - [[User:Chris McFeely|Chris McFeely]] 06:34, 9 July 2010 (EDT)

:::::::That's how they are on the Pioneer LDC release. I recently came across this site in attempts to collect the recap episodes and in hunting down the recap episodes through the 'net I came across someone that sold me copies of the Pioneer LDC discs. What we both found is that the Masterforce recap episodes 43 & 44 are on the Masterforce disc 8; the Masterforce recap episode 47 and the one I'm telling you about is on the Victory Disc 6; the Headmasters recap episodes 36-38 are on Victory disc 7; and the Victory recap episodes 40-44 are on the Victory disc 8. -[[User:Crisdecal|Crisdecal]]
::::::::Well, I have to say, that's the first I've heard of anything like that. You're sure these are the genuine articles? Because that seems like an odd sort of mix up. Not to say that I could imagine a new clip show could have been created for a bootleg, or anything, but I'm at a bit of a loss, because... well, there's never been any indicated of another Masterforce clip show, and for it to have basically the same title as another one... I think we need someone more knowledgeable than I, and probably one who speaks Japanese, to clarify this... - [[User:Chris McFeely|Chris McFeely]] 06:57, 9 July 2010 (EDT)

This is an original copy from the Pioneer LDC disc. I didn't believe it either until I was watching the recaps earlier tonight. I thought that the recap episode in question was also Masterforce episode 43. But you can tell there is a slight difference in the title and even the whole episode is different from all the other recaps. There is a narrator on this one and through out the whole episode each main characters title appears in large bold Japanese characters every time a new character is introduced. -[[User:Crisdecal|Crisdecal]]

The central character in this clip show is of course Super Ginari showing him kick Decepticon butt. Let me know what comes about all of this -[[User:Crisdecal|Crisdecal]]

== Almanac II Annotations for Page 98 ==
Would that text by Yoketron happen to read as "Musabetsu Kakuto Ryuu"? If so, it's a Ranma 1/2 reference- most often translated as "Anything Goes Martial Arts'. - [[User:Ayellowbirds|Ayellowbirds]] 23:47, 15 July 2010 (EDT)

==Unsolved anagrams==

Just got these reponses from Forster, thought you might need them for the annotations:

"I was just looking at the Almanac Annotations, and saw a section labeled "Unsolved Anagrams" with a listing for a "Baron Ye Gult". I was wondering if it was perhaps "Tonya Bulger"
Updated Answer: I originally answered the question incorrectly. I thought you asked about 'Friar Ilia Tote'. So if anyone read that and was confused, its because I was asleep at the wheel. 'Baron Ye Gult' is my friend Albert Young. Albert is a big sports fan and goes dancing in clubs, but I am his friend anyway.

Another anagram: Is "Dankly Woolens" supposed to be "Kendall Swoony"? Sorry if these have been solved and just not posted to the annotations.
Kelly Woods, my kid sister. I didn't expect people to get all the anagrams. They were mostly just me having fun."

Given the letters used, I'm going to assume that Kelly's middle name is Ann. --[[User:Khajidha|Khajidha]] 11:02, 28 July 2010 (EDT)

{{cleanup|April 2011|dogpile}}
[[Image:GoldenDisksBW.jpg|right|150px|thumb|Don't leave them alone together. They multiply.]]
{{bigquote|If you lose a son, it is ''possible'' to get another! There is only ''one'' Golden Disk.|A grossly misinformed [[Cryotek (RID)|Cryotek]]|"[[Theft of the Golden Disk]]"}}

You can't swing a [[Catilla|dead cat]] in ''Transformers'' without hitting a '''Golden Disk'''.

''[[Beast Wars (franchise)|Beast Wars]]'' introduced a sensible two:

* The ''[[Golden Disk (Voyager)|Sounds of Earth]]'' record from the 1977 ''Voyager'' space probe.
* A [[Golden Disk (Vok)|Vok artifact]] that bears an uncanny <small>(but probably coincidental)</small> resemblance to the ''Voyager'' disk.

''[[Beast Machines (franchise)|Beast Machines]]'' had two in a throwaway scene with [[Optimus Prime (G1)|Optimus Prime]] holding some in a [[Optimus Prime memorials|memorial]] outside the [[Cybertron Archives]]. Writer [[Bob Skir]] claims that neither the statue nor the golden disks in its hands were mentioned in the script. However, he [http://web.archive.org/web/20080614012630/http://bigbot.com/beast-machines-transformers-bob-skir/Beast-Machines-FAQ/Tue_12_Oct_1999.html suggested] that they were either the [[Golden Disk (Voyager)|disks]] from the Voyager 1 and Voyager 2 probes, or that Optimus won them in the 2,395,989th Annual Cybertronian spelling bee. We're betting on the latter.

More followed like roaches in the [[Dreamwave timeline|Dreamwave Generation 1 continuity]]:

* A compilation of the [[Golden Disk (council)|wisdom of past Primes]].
* An [[Golden Disk (ancient)|ancient artifact]] from Cybertron's distant past.
* Its [[Golden Disk (Paradron)|sister-disk]] on [[Paradron]] that holds the secrets of Transformer evolution.
* And a record of [[Golden Disk (MTMTE)|the state of Transformerdom circa 2003]], which the [[Predacon (BW)|Predacon]] [[Megatron (BW)|Megatron]] stole and which thus supplants the ''Voyager'' disk that started this whole mess.

[[Takara]] was not to be left out, writing of yet another [[Beast Wars Reborn|Golden Disk]] that was the mysterious power source of a mysterious vessel under mysterious circumstances.

Also, [[Transformers Animated Kellogg's Eggo waffles]]: Moist, delicious repositories of wisdom.

[[Image:RisingStorm3-SpaceCasetrident.jpg|right|thumb|500px|Yeah, well... [[Geewun|you movie guys look like Bionicle characters!]]]]

'''Space Case''' is pretty excitable. He thinks humans all look the same and that they're "fleshy and gross". He also underestimates how easy it might be for humans to use his peers' weaponry on him.

Space Case and several other Decepticons were led to [[Philadelphia]] by [[Starscream (Movie)|Starscream]], where [[Sam Witwicky]] and [[Bumblebee (Movie)|Bumblebee]] were harboring their escaped "pet", [[Brains]]. Space Case followed Brains to a [[Carly Miller|human female]]. His attention was briefly averted from her when Sam hit him in the leg with a pipe, and she quickly returned the favor. Carly operated a weapon from one of the fallen Decepticons, blasting Space Case. Though Space Case wasn't destroyed, it did frazzle him enough to allow the two humans to escape. {{storylink|Rising Storm issue 3|Rising Storm #3}}

Powerglide (Animated)

2011-04-20T13:26:28Z

81.164.209.246: Undo revision 578236 by SymbolsWriter (Talk) why've you done that?

{{factions|autobot}}
{{disambig3|Powerglide}}
:''Powerglide is an [[Autobot]] from the [[Transformers Animated (franchise)|Transformers Animated]] [[continuity family]].''

[[Image:Animated powerglide character model.jpg|right|thumb|220px|"I may not fly, but at least I'm the [[Powerglide (G1) #Universe (2008)|right color]]!"]]
'''Powerglide''' may just transform into a truck himself, but he still lives up to his name when it comes to piloting aircraft. During the [[Great War (Animated)|Great War]], he was one of the best fighter pilots among the Autobots and an expert on aerial acrobatics, though he had a bad habit of showing off rather than fighting properly. After the war ended, Powerglide continued his line of work as a civilian pilot.
__TOC__
==Fiction==
===''Animated'' cartoon===
Powerglide was among the crowd welcoming home [[Sentinel Prime (Animated)|Sentinel "Magnus"]] and cheering on the capture of several [[Decepticon]] prisoners. {{storylink|Decepticon Air}}

He was later seen wandering around on [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]] when [[Carmine Fanzone|Captain Fanzone]] was accidentally [[transwarp]]ed to the Transformer homeworld. {{storylink|This Is Why I Hate Machines}}

Later still, Powerglide was among the Autobots cheering for the triumphant return of [[Optimus Prime (Animated)|Optimus Prime]] and his crew to [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]]. {{storylink|Endgame, Part II}}

==Notes==
* Powerglide actually transforms into a treaded ground vehicle.<ref>[http://twitter.com/DerrickJWyatt/status/12114969175 Twitter post from Derrick Wyatt]</ref> This would be in keeping with the "Autobots don't fly" motif, just like how [[Highbrow (Animated)|Highbrow]] also converts to a ground vehicle despite his [[Highbrow (G1)|original series namesake]]'s aerial [[alternate mode]].
