== Japanese Variants ==
Haven't the faintest. I never kept up on variations details. This is more of a question for Harold Tietjens or Fred of Fred's Workshop.--[[User:Apcog|Apcog]] 08:20, 9 December 2007 (UTC)

== Formatting ==
I was just wondering if the rest of the page (aside from the basic profile) would work better in the toy sections factoid format. I mean, it might give the page a little more visual interest. <small>—The preceding unsigned comment was added by [[User:Chiasaur11|Chiasaur11]] ([[User talk:Chiasaur11|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Chiasaur11|contribs]]) 00:28, 20 September 2008.</small>
:Since Rewind's one of my fave characters, I gave it a go myself. What do you think? Not exactly the same, but I thought this would be a little less repetitive-looking while still keeping the "factoid" vibe. --[[User:Jeysie|Jeysie]] 16:23, 20 September 2008 (EDT)
::I like the idea of trivia listing, but I think we may want to keep it out of the fiction sections and restrict it to the intro, toy, and trivia sections. We don't want to be writing stuff Out of Universe. --[[User:SFH|SFH]] 16:55, 20 September 2008 (EDT)
:::Admittedly, Rewind's factoid style doesn't lend itself as well to being properly in-universe the way something like Wheelie's rhyming does. :> Any ideas for a compromise? I kind of like the idea of his article being somehow idiosyncratic, since he's otherwise one of the more obscure, hard-to-remember charcaters... --[[User:Jeysie|Jeysie]] 17:08, 20 September 2008 (EDT)

:::::I, too, greatly enjoy this article's current format. --[[User:FFN|FFN]] 09:56, 28 October 2008 (EDT)

I theeeenk our format for this article might be working against us now that Rewind's actually regularly doing stuff for the first time. - [[User:Chris McFeely|Chris McFeely]] 16:18, 29 July 2012 (EDT)

==Main pic==
As FFN points out, he's kinda in the wrong colors here. I'd just as soon see one of the cartoon screencaps used as his main pic; they show more personality, and we've become far too reliant on MTMTE, TFU, and box art for main pics in general. --[[User:Repowers|Repowers]] 10:20, 29 September 2008 (EDT)
:Walky says it's old timey comic book colours where blue represents black... for the purposes of this wiki it looks like a mistake. --[[User:FFN|FFN]] 12:43, 29 September 2008 (EDT)
::It really does, IMO, even though I'm well-conditioned to read that blue-for-black substitution the way it was intended. How about that screencap of him pointing at the ancient symbols? That's utterly perfect -- sums up the character to a T. --[[User:Repowers|Repowers]] 12:50, 29 September 2008 (EDT)
:::Yeah, I was thinking the same thing, since that's my screenshot. I generally prefer full-body shots whenever possible but they are hard to come by for this guy. --[[User:FFN|FFN]] 12:55, 29 September 2008 (EDT)
::::We do have a semi-terrible Dreamwave MTMTE profile pic down below in the DW section... one that should be replaced by one of him in actual fiction. Either we move it up or we should delete it and get a better image for the section. --[[User:ItsWalky|ItsWalky]] 14:13, 29 September 2008 (EDT)
:::::We should delete that MTMTE pic. --[[User:M Sipher|M Sipher]] 14:35, 29 September 2008 (EDT)

:::I was going to offer [http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b288/monzo/GuidoGenesisEject.jpg this] for the page, until I realized it was Eject. (Rewind is in fact too near the page crease to be of any use.) --[[User:Monzo|Monzo]] 14:37, 29 September 2008 (EDT)
::::I'd favor that over [[Eject (G1)|Eject]]'s current pic.

:::::<nowiki>*</nowiki>looks a bit sheepish* Sorry about that... basically, when I went to reformat the page into factoid-style, I decided I ought to fix the fact that the main pic actually was non-existent/redlinked at the time as well... and grabbed the first appropriate-seeming image I could think of so I could just concentrate on the article itself. It completely never occurred to me to just repurpose/move one of the existing pics (cause I agree that that entire scene is pretty much quintessential Rewind). So, er, eheh. --[[User:Jeysie|Jeysie]] 18:06, 29 September 2008 (EDT)

== Trivia format vs. IDW stories ==

The trivia note format is cute, but... I kinda feel like it's undermining the actual info when it comes to the IDW section. Rewind's been a major player for quite a few issues, and we're not really doing him justice right now. Sure, we could expand, but after a while it's gonna get unwieldy. I'd favor having a regular-text expansion after the trivia notes:
:: *Got golden discs from Swindle just before leaving with Rodimus's crew in the Lost Light?
:: It's true! Swindle was a bit surprised to find out that a "nice little Autobot" like Rewind was into such things, but Rewind's interest was not personal. Nor professional.

...or something. I dunno. -- [[User:Repowers|Repowers]] 23:26, 30 October 2012 (EDT)
:Yeah, if I'd known he was going to become a main character again, I don't think I would have reformatted this the way I did, as it's only cute in small doses. Your idea might be a good compromise. --[[User:Jeysie|Jeysie]] 20:09, 27 January 2013 (EST)

==Image request==
Thanks for the (fast) image upload for Leftfoot's assistant. If it's not too much to ask, could you perhaps also provide a screencap of "[[Lightfoot: A Dramatic Encounter]]" - Gilmer reaching for his crotch in pain. I'd like to see it added to the episode page and the [[Humanization]] article. And if you'd have The Headmasters DVDs, the [[Harinezumi|purple rat monster]] article has been without image for half a year. [[User:Geewunling|Geewunling]] 03:28, 17 October 2010 (EDT)
:Sure! Unfortunately my DVDs of The Headmasters are out on loan to a friend at the moment, so I haven't even been able to get around to adding screenshots to the HM episode articles. I will see what I can do though. --[[User:Abates|abates]] 03:44, 17 October 2010 (EDT)

===Image request revisited===
Do you think you could do another imagery list? I am looking for a better version of Image:Starscream clone G1.jpg, a screenshot of [[Trashbin]] (as the page itself notes, the best image moment would be shortly before the line "you check in, but you don't check out" by Wreck-Gar during the chase scene on Junk), and [[Dread slaves]] needs some images. I think a screenshot of when Kup finally frees everybody, aka that time organic prisoners show up, would be good for the Notes section. Possibly when three of the robot prisoners (the ones who get caught by Predaking) try to flee would be good as main image. Think you could get these? [[User:Geewunling|Geewunling]] 04:21, 13 December 2010 (EST)
:I'll take a look. I did look through my screenshots for "Chaos" a while ago for suitable shots of the Dread slaves, but couldn't find any, so I may have to go back to the episode. --[[User:Abates|abates]] 04:53, 13 December 2010 (EST)
:Er, regarding [[Trashbin]], I don't see him in that shot. The dude in the middle back is closest, but has a different head and legs to the character model. --[[User:Abates|abates]] 05:48, 13 December 2010 (EST)
::Thanks for the uploads so far. With Trashbin, it "is" the dude in the middle. The fact he has a slightly different head and legs in that shot doesn't change what model he is supposed to be anymore than [[HAZMAT]]'s face/no face difference. Alternatively, the closest possible shot of him attacking Arcee will also do (can't use the moment after she knocks him over, because then the model gets switched for Junkyard's). Does this help? [[User:Geewunling|Geewunling]] 07:11, 13 December 2010 (EST)
:::Ahhh, OK! --[[User:Abates|abates]] 14:22, 13 December 2010 (EST)

==="Plaise, suh, may I 'aff s'more?"===
Many thanks for Trashbin's and the early war dudes' images. Though, could I request some more images for the latter's page? For the gallery, I'd like images of the yellow/blue and green dude when they walk next to each other, the red and the blue chars behind them standing in front of each other, the [[Whirl (G1)|Whirl]]-like dude fleeing, the red and blue guys fleeing for Decepticon fire and maybe another image for the grey/red guy fleeing behind them. I'd also like a shot from "The Key to Vector Sigma" featuring at least the green dude for the Notes section. Think you could get these too? [[User:Geewunling|Geewunling]] 18:54, 26 December 2010 (EST)
:Done! --[[User:Abates|abates]] 02:19, 27 December 2010 (EST)

===Bothering you once again. Sorry===
If you can find the time, could you get a few articles some more images? I'm looking for an image of Megatron getting a pair of binoculars from his chest for the continuity ntoes section of "[[The Master Builders]]" and the images as described for the [[Satellite Penitentiary inmates]] and [[Satellite Penitentiary personnel|personnel]]. For the inmates, I like to see the current image replaced by a full panshot one, and I'd prefer Gaihawk to be visible in the drowned inmate-is-still alive shot so it can be added to the episode page's animation error section. [[User:Geewunling|Geewunling]] 05:48, 6 March 2011 (EST)
:I've stuck an image up for the Master Builders! I'll have a look at the Satellite Penitentiary articles this evening, though a pan might be tricky - the NSTC to PAL conversion Madman used means 90% of the frames end up overlapping, but if Shout Factory release Victory in NTSC, that will help. --[[User:Abates|abates]] 14:59, 6 March 2011 (EST)
::I had missed that you added the remaining images. Thank you for that. Though at the risk of sounding ungrateful, might I ask why you opted for an 'escape from explosions'-shot rather than another prison-panshot? Did the frames overlap?
::On a not-image related note, the "Teacher" category. It has no description, so I'd like to know how exactly it is bordered. It currently only has "classroom" teachers listed, but aren't characters like Ani Yoketron, Cyb Brakedown and En Landmine teachers too? [[User:Geewunling|Geewunling]] 05:54, 17 April 2011 (EDT)
:::It seemed like a good idea at the time? I couldn't find much to choose from with what's usable in the episode, and the erupting lava shot seemed to have some interesting body forms in. As for the teachers category, I basically added everyone I could think of at the time who was a teacher, so I'm not surprised I missed some people (well, not so much the UT guys, because I haven't seen Energon or Cybertron since they were broadcast) --[[User:Abates|abates]] 07:17, 17 April 2011 (EDT)

--[[User:Barricade123|Barricade123]] 15:30, 7 November 2010 (EST)

==Hey==

I'm just trying to add interesting stuff to this place. I came from the wikia of this, and I'm eager to make this site even better than it.

I just don't see the rhyme or reason at which you delete stuff. I thought the focus here was on comedy, so the reasons you gave for removing some things made no sense. I always tried to think up meaningful content to add when I came across something. I don't just add for the sake of adding, and everything I've added was there before on the wikia site. --[[User:Tommy-Vercetti|Tommy-Vercetti]] 16:54, 8 November 2010 (EST)
:The focus here isn't just comedy and there's a limit to it. Sometimes, too much details or comedy can get in the way of the article so we have to trim back. --[[User:Lonegamer78|Lonegamer78]] 17:04, 8 November 2010 (EST)

:We split from the Wikia site two years ago, so it has evolved different rules to us. Some of the things that you added, like the last appearance of Inferno's beast mode, aren't particularly notable in themselves - if we added notes every time a character was seen for the first or last time, the wiki would be covered in them. --[[User:Abates|abates]] 17:12, 8 November 2010 (EST)

== Re:The Pri¢e of Life! UK cover ==

You probably don't remember, but I'm trying to work out what the source is on the credit for Frances Farmer on the UK cover of "The Pri¢e of Life!". According to the history, you added it in March '08. Do you recall where you go the info from? --abates 20:34, 3 November 2010 (EDT)

:Hi! Sorry, I haven't been on in a few days. No I don't remember exactly where I got the info for the cover, but I suspect it was from [http://www.tfarchive.com/comics/marvel/?s=uk_301_310#309 here]. Now, where THEY got it, I have no idea. Maybe they actually have the comic. Hope this helps.--[[User:MistaTee|MistaTee]] 09:19, 15 November 2010 (EST)

== "Micron Legend" <> "Micron Densetsu" ==

Why "Densetsu" instead of "Legend"? --[[User:Lonegamer78|Lonegamer78]] 03:48, 25 November 2010 (EST)
:That was Interrobang who changed that. I guess because we're using Micron in the name rather than Mini-Con? --[[User:Abates|abates]] 04:05, 25 November 2010 (EST)
::Whoops. And it doesn't make sense. Well, to me. --[[User:Lonegamer78|Lonegamer78]] 04:07, 25 November 2010 (EST)

== Please do not block IPs infinitely ==
Please do not block IPs infinitely. They might change, even if they are static. {{unsigned|86.147.177.207}}
:That IP I banned is owned by a web host, and should be hosting a web site, not making edits here. If that ever changes, the person using that IP can always appeal the block. --[[User:Abates|abates]] 14:41, 19 December 2010 (EST)

== Miniseries pages ==

In reference to your comment when adding the Darkness Rising page, I think that home video release information for a mini-series should go on the main page instead of being repeated on each individual episode page as these are rarely if ever released separately. Just my two cents. --[[User:Khajidha|Khajidha]] 16:59, 11 January 2011 (EST)
:We could have it both places? Taking it off the individual pages might make it harder to find, particularly since, at the moment anyway, we're not linking to the main pages from the episode pages. --[[User:Abates|abates]] 17:05, 11 January 2011 (EST)

== SG Ravage trolling ==

Looking at the history of the page, this guy's been rotating IPs, the rest might need to be preemptively blocked. - [[User:Cattleprod|Cattleprod]] 00:26, 3 February 2011 (EST)
:Yeah, that might be a good idea. Man, some people take this stuff far too seriously. --[[User:Abates|abates]] 00:34, 3 February 2011 (EST)

== Regarding the edits Eagc7 made ==

Apparently you haven't read the [[Megatron (Movie)]] article in awhile, because Eagc7 was just trying to help out. [http://tfwiki.net/w2/index.php?title=Megatron_%28Movie%29&diff=484337&oldid=481886 Xaaron made this edit] almost a year ago, most likely because nobody bothered to fill out that section since 2007. Nobody objected. Eagc7 evidently noticed this and was trying to make the other articles consistent. I know you were only following Detour's lead, but I think you should have investigated why Eagc7 didn't seem to edit Megatron's article, or questioned him. --[[User:FFN|FFN]] 03:37, 12 April 2011 (EDT)
:I kinda disagree with Xaaron's original edit because I think listing the voice actor for an adaptation in the section for the comic is a bit awkward. Do we do that anywhere else? --[[User:Abates|abates]] 04:11, 12 April 2011 (EDT)
::Not that I know of, but the point was he made that edit, nobody objected at the time, and then somebody else tried to do the same and got insta-reverted. Now, if Xaaron's edit shouldn't have been made in the first place we can change Megatron's article or something, but there will still be big charstubfictions there. --[[User:FFN|FFN]] 10:22, 12 April 2011 (EDT)
:::I don't remember seeing Xaaron's edit at the time, so I may not have seen it. Eagc7's edits, however, were removing information. For instance his edit to the [http://tfwiki.net/w2/index.php?title=Judy_Witwicky&diff=575068&oldid=570080 Judy Witwicky] article removed that her lines were cut from "Beginnings" and instead added "Voice actor: Unknown", which implies something completely different. --[[User:Abates|abates]] 16:27, 12 April 2011 (EDT)

== Nemesis Prime ==

As far as I am aware, that snippet of Toxitron's bio is the only mention of Nemesis Prime in the Animated universe. Can you give me some pointers on what else should/could be added?[[User:KrytenKoro|KrytenKoro]] 18:49, 10 June 2011 (EDT)
:Hmm, looking at the article that was deleted, it seems to be only missing the continuity identifier and a disambig template. I presume that was why it was marked for deletion. --[[User:Abates|abates]] 19:31, 10 June 2011 (EDT)

Is there any way for remove those pages Rodrigo Carralero and Abel Rocha, i was checking Doblaje wiki again and they confirmed that Mirage and Wheeljack we´re vocied by soembody else so can you delete those pages?, oh yeah if its possible cna you remove Rebeca Gómez so i can add Erica Edwards as arcee vocei actress cause doblaje wiki claims she is arcee adn elita-1 vocie actress (as the notes sectino of gomez claism aswell) {{unsigned|Eagc7|23:11, 15 July 2011 (EDT)}}

==External links==
Where can one see whether a page has an external link to it or not? [[User:Geewunling|Geewunling]] 06:06, 17 July 2011 (EDT)
:I generally use both [https://siteexplorer.search.yahoo.com/ Yahoo site explorer] and google Google and either using their "Link:" keyword or just searching for the URL. None of these methods is foolproof, unfortunately. Site Explorer doesn't like URLs with brackets or punctuation, for instance. --[[User:Abates|abates]] 06:16, 17 July 2011 (EDT)
::Oh, so it's not a tfwiki-based search? I'll keep in mind to do a link search in the future before putting up a delete request. Is time of relevance when looking at external links? Like, if it's three years since a link was made, is it still an argument not to delete a redirect? [[User:Geewunling|Geewunling]] 11:07, 17 July 2011 (EDT)

:''Sari Sumdac is a [[technorganic]] humanoid from the "[[Shattered Glass (franchise)|Shattered Glass]]" [[Transformers Animated (franchise)|Animated]] [[continuity family]].''

[[Image:SG_Sari_character_model.JPG|thumb|150px|She's the cool Sari.]]

You know that nice, sweet girl, [[Sari Sumdac]]? Yeah, this isn't that Sari. This '''Sari Sumdac''' collects eyes. Years of torture can do that to a girl. She hails from an alternate continuity from the normal Animated universe, where everything is flipped, turned upside down. Autobots are evil. Decepticons are good. [[Porter C. Powell]] is a nice guy. [[Shattered Glass|You know the deal.]]

==Fiction==
===''Animated'' BotCon 2011 Attendee Lithographs===
When [[Isaac Sumdac (SG Animated)|Isaac Sumdac]] discovered and touched her [[protoform]] in his lab, she absorbed his DNA and attacked him, tearing out his eye. Her violent nature impressed him, and from then on, he raised her in a cage, subjecting her to constant painful experiments and upgrades. After testing the results of [[AllSpark]] fragment implantation, her true power was revealed. Now armed with a battle mode, she serves as a slave alongside the [[Autobot]]s. While she enjoys the destruction and power, she's more of a prankster than truly evil. She hates her "creator" with every fiber of her being, and dreams of the day when she will be free to finish what she started all those years ago. She is often partnered with [[Bumblebee (SG Animated)|Bumblebee]].<ref>BotCon 2011 Attendee Lithographs</ref>

==Notes==
[[Image:Generations_2011_animated_illustration.jpg|thumb|150px|Shattered Glass Sari, I choose you, [[Motormaster (Animated)|OHHHH YEEAH!]] ]]
* Shattered Glass Sari was first revealed in two posts on [[Derrick J. Wyatt]]'s blog,<ref>http://derrickjwyatt.blogspot.com/2010/10/many-moods-of-sari-sumdac.html</ref><ref>http://derrickjwyatt.blogspot.com/2011/04/transformers-generations-2011-vol-1.html</ref> and first officially shown in a special illustration Wyatt created for inclusion in ''[[Transformers Generations 2011]]'' Vol. 1. Seems like while Takara were cool about her having a bare midriff, it didn't fly with Hasbro.
* Belonging to two entirely different, and previously unlinked franchises, Sari and [[Bumblebee (SG Animated)|other members]] of her universe present a... bit of a classification problem.

== Masterpiece Megs importation issue ==
:Interesting. I really couldn't say whether the U.S. importation difficulty is merely percieved or not. They certainly go on about it a lot on tfw2005.com. I suppose we'll just have to wait for a user consensus on that point. Also, I just wanted to let you know I've reverted that edit; no offence but I disagree with you: I really think that the "impossible on paper" comment is an adequately noteworthy point, as the way animated Megs transforms ''is'' impossible without shape-morphing, as the kibble factor and detail-approximation on this figure proves (to say nothing of watching the cartoon in slow-mo). I also definitely think it's noteworthy what an INCREDIBLY complex transformation the toy has. Wouldn't you agree it must be the most elaborate transformation in a TF toy to date? I've removed the word "fiddly" (which wasn't actually mine anyway), if that makes any difference.

'''The Elite Guard confronts Deathsaurus and the Combaticons.'''

==Synopsis==
[[Magnum]]'s team search for [[Deathsaurus (Victory)|Deathsaurus]]'s base, though he turns down their suggestions that they should split up to look. They swiftly encounter [[Side Burn (Timelines)|Side Burn]], who claims to know where the base is, but before he can tell them (or rather, while he's singing a taunt), he's interrupted by someone shooting at him. The team takes cover, and Magnum asks [[Ricochet (Timelines)|Ricochet]] if he can see who's in charge of the attackers. Ricochet is in the process of warning them that they're being outflanked when he's shot down by [[Starscream (G1)|Starscream]]. Deathsaurus's troops have arrived. As Starscream gives the order to attack, he's interrupted by [[Flak (G1)|Flak]] unleashing a barrage of missiles, and Magnum orders the Autobots to take the fight to the [[Decepticon]]s.

They make inroads into dispelling the Decepticons, but Deathsaurus himself picks that moment to make an appearance. Magnum rails at the Warlord for messing with the [[Combaticon (G1)|Combaticon]]s' heads, but Deathsaurus claims he did nothing but give them a better offer, and is backed up by the nearby Combaticons who join in the battle. Though [[Dion]] is perturbed by [[Swindle (G1)|Swindle]] trying to sell him weapons mid-combat, and [[Landshark]] is put off by [[Onslaught (G1)|Onslaught]] fighting him while taunting [[Thunder Clash]].

Meanwhile [[Outback (G1)|Outback]], Flak and [[Moonracer]] watch as Ricochet dies of his injuries. They barely have time to mourn before a furious [[Lyzack]] appears, wielding [[Leozack]]'s sword. Side Burn is momentarily distracted by the sight, and is shot by [[Blast Off (G1)|Blast Off]]. After [[Brawl (G1)|Brawl]] likewise downs [[Kup (G1)|Kup]] and Onslaught slams Landshark to the ground, the Combaticons merge into [[Bruticus (G1)|Bruticus]] to finish the job...

...only to be immediately blasted down by a newcomer, whom the [[Cybertron Elite Guard|Elite Guard]] are surprised to see.

[[Image:RunningCogsAward.jpg|right|250px|thumb|You, Artist! Make me shinier!]]
In the early days of Cybertron, groundbreaking and significant news reporting is recognized with the '''Running Cogs Award for Captivating Journalism'''. The winning news network gets a sparkling golden trophy. So shiny!

==Fiction==
===Wings of Honor===
For ''[[Around Cybertron]]''<nowiki>'s</nowiki> interview with [[Alpha Trion (G1)|Alpha Trion]] (actually just [[Bishop (Autobot)|Bishop]] with a paint job), [[ABN]] won the Running Cogs Award for Captivating Journalism. [[Rook (Universe)|Rook]] was so excited that he interrupted [[Cassiopeia]]'s report on the war to show off the trophy to the viewers. Bishop was just annoyed that he hadn't had a chance to hold the trophy yet, because Rook was busy hugging it. {{storylink|Around Cybertron#Around Cybertron #17|Around Cybertron #17}}

Transformers: Prime (franchise)

2011-06-16T03:11:44Z

Jeysie:

{{Nav-Prime}}

'''''Transformers: Prime''''' is a [[franchise]] that launched in 2010. Its fiction is part of the [[Aligned continuity family]], based on the same [[production bible]] as ''[[Transformers: War for Cybertron (franchise)|War for Cybertron]]''. Its design aesthetic is somewhere between the [[live-action film series]] and ''[[Transformers Animated (franchise)|Animated]]''. The writers of the first two live-action movies, [[Roberto Orci]] and [[Alex Kurtzman]], are executive producers on the ''Prime'' cartoon. Orci described this as a chance to do what he "couldn't do in the movies."<ref>[http://www.movieweb.com/news/roberto-orci-and-jeff-kline-talk-transformers-prime Movieweb.com interview with Roberto Orci & Jeff Kline]</ref>

==Franchise elements==
*[[Transformers: Prime (cartoon)|A cartoon series]]
*[[Transformers: Prime (comic)|Comic books]]
*[[Transformers: Prime (toyline)|A toyline]]
*[[Online games#Prime|Online games]]

==Continuity==
The cartoon is the principle element of ''Prime'' fiction, and the comic is a prequel miniseries that ties into the show smoothly. But broader continuity is more contentious: While [[Hasbro]] has consistently described all ''Prime'' and ''War for Cybertron'' fiction as one single [[continuity]],<ref>[[Hasbro Q&A/September 2010: Answers|TFWiki.net Hasbro Q&A, Sept. 2010]]</ref> the various media have been produced by different creative teams and often contradict.

For example, the ''Prime'' cartoon features [[Dark Energon]] just like ''War for Cybertron'', but with the previously-unseen quality of being able to [[Terrorcon (Prime)|reanimate corpses]].<ref>[[Darkness Rising, Part 2|''Prime'' episode "Darkness Rising, Part 2"]]</ref> And strangely, Megatron is able to create an army of such creatures by crashing Dark Energon into the dead world of [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]],<ref>[[Darkness Rising, Part 2|''Prime'' episode "Darkness Rising, Part 5"]]</ref> despite the reason for the planet's demise in ''War for Cybertron'' being its complete infection with the substance. Also, the aesthetics and characterizations in the games are inspired primarily by ''[[Generation 1 (franchise)|Generation 1]]'', while the cartoon takes many cues from the [[live-action film series]]. So while the [[Bumblebee (Prime)|Bumblebee of the games]] looks and talks like [[Bumblebee (G1)|his ''Generation 1'' self]], the cartoon version looks like [[Bumblebee (Movie)|his movie incarnation]] and [[R2-D2|speaks in electronic beeps and squawks]]. An [[pseudocanon|apocryphal]] short story by [[Alex Irvine|the author of ''Exodus'']] [[Bumblebee at Tyger Pax|attempts to explain this change]], but the [[retcon]] occurs ''before'' the game events, so the contradiction remains.

When asked about the discrepancies, Hasbro VP of Intellectual Property Development [[Aaron Archer]] replied, "reasons for the confusion will be revealed".<ref>[[Hasbro Q&A/January 2011: Answers|TFWiki.net Hasbro Q&A, Jan. 2011]]</ref> The show's staff added Dark Energon's nature differed due to the games and show being set in different eras, and added that while they try to keep the large continuity co-ordinated, ultimately such errors are secondary to the freedom of telling the best story.<ref>[http://www.tfw2005.com/transformers-news/conventions-15/botcon-2011-transformers-prime-panel-172315/ TFW coverage of Hasbro Studios panel at BotCon 2011]</ref>

Thanks for the (fast) image upload for Leftfoot's assistant. If it's not too much to ask, could you perhaps also provide a screencap of "[[Lightfoot: A Dramatic Encounter]]" - Gilmer reaching for his crotch in pain. I'd like to see it added to the episode page and the [[Humanization]] article. And if you'd have The Headmasters DVDs, the [[purple rat monster]] article has been without image for half a year. [[User:Geewunling|Geewunling]] 03:28, 17 October 2010 (EDT)
:Sure! Unfortunately my DVDs of The Headmasters are out on loan to a friend at the moment, so I haven't even been able to get around to adding screenshots to the HM episode articles. I will see what I can do though. --[[User:Abates|abates]] 03:44, 17 October 2010 (EDT)

===Image request revisited===
Do you think you could do another imagery list? I am looking for a better version of Image:Starscream clone G1.jpg, a screenshot of [[Trashbin]] (as the page itself notes, the best image moment would be shortly before the line "you check in, but you don't check out" by Wreck-Gar during the chase scene on Junk), and [[Dread slaves]] needs some images. I think a screenshot of when Kup finally frees everybody, aka that time organic prisoners show up, would be good for the Notes section. Possibly when three of the robot prisoners (the ones who get caught by Predaking) try to flee would be good as main image. Think you could get these? [[User:Geewunling|Geewunling]] 04:21, 13 December 2010 (EST)
:I'll take a look. I did look through my screenshots for "Chaos" a while ago for suitable shots of the Dread slaves, but couldn't find any, so I may have to go back to the episode. --[[User:Abates|abates]] 04:53, 13 December 2010 (EST)
:Er, regarding [[Trashbin]], I don't see him in that shot. The dude in the middle back is closest, but has a different head and legs to the character model. --[[User:Abates|abates]] 05:48, 13 December 2010 (EST)
::Thanks for the uploads so far. With Trashbin, it "is" the dude in the middle. The fact he has a slightly different head and legs in that shot doesn't change what model he is supposed to be anymore than [[HAZMAT]]'s face/no face difference. Alternatively, the closest possible shot of him attacking Arcee will also do (can't use the moment after she knocks him over, because then the model gets switched for Junkyard's). Does this help? [[User:Geewunling|Geewunling]] 07:11, 13 December 2010 (EST)
:::Ahhh, OK! --[[User:Abates|abates]] 14:22, 13 December 2010 (EST)

==="Plaise, suh, may I 'aff s'more?"===
Many thanks for Trashbin's and the early war dudes' images. Though, could I request some more images for the latter's page? For the gallery, I'd like images of the yellow/blue and green dude when they walk next to each other, the red and the blue chars behind them standing in front of each other, the [[Whirl (G1)|Whirl]]-like dude fleeing, the red and blue guys fleeing for Decepticon fire and maybe another image for the grey/red guy fleeing behind them. I'd also like a shot from "The Key to Vector Sigma" featuring at least the green dude for the Notes section. Think you could get these too? [[User:Geewunling|Geewunling]] 18:54, 26 December 2010 (EST)
:Done! --[[User:Abates|abates]] 02:19, 27 December 2010 (EST)

===Bothering you once again. Sorry===
If you can find the time, could you get a few articles some more images? I'm looking for an image of Megatron getting a pair of binoculars from his chest for the continuity ntoes section of "[[The Master Builders]]" and the images as described for the [[Satellite Penitentiary inmates]] and [[Satellite Penitentiary personnel|personnel]]. For the inmates, I like to see the current image replaced by a full panshot one, and I'd prefer Gaihawk to be visible in the drowned inmate-is-still alive shot so it can be added to the episode page's animation error section. [[User:Geewunling|Geewunling]] 05:48, 6 March 2011 (EST)
:I've stuck an image up for the Master Builders! I'll have a look at the Satellite Penitentiary articles this evening, though a pan might be tricky - the NSTC to PAL conversion Madman used means 90% of the frames end up overlapping, but if Shout Factory release Victory in NTSC, that will help. --[[User:Abates|abates]] 14:59, 6 March 2011 (EST)
::I had missed that you added the remaining images. Thank you for that. Though at the risk of sounding ungrateful, might I ask why you opted for an 'escape from explosions'-shot rather than another prison-panshot? Did the frames overlap?
::On a not-image related note, the "Teacher" category. It has no description, so I'd like to know how exactly it is bordered. It currently only has "classroom" teachers listed, but aren't characters like Ani Yoketron, Cyb Brakedown and En Landmine teachers too? [[User:Geewunling|Geewunling]] 05:54, 17 April 2011 (EDT)
:::It seemed like a good idea at the time? I couldn't find much to choose from with what's usable in the episode, and the erupting lava shot seemed to have some interesting body forms in. As for the teachers category, I basically added everyone I could think of at the time who was a teacher, so I'm not surprised I missed some people (well, not so much the UT guys, because I haven't seen Energon or Cybertron since they were broadcast) --[[User:Abates|abates]] 07:17, 17 April 2011 (EDT)

==Put!==
Put, c'mon!
--[[User:Barricade123|Barricade123]] 15:30, 7 November 2010 (EST)

==Hey==

I'm just trying to add interesting stuff to this place. I came from the wikia of this, and I'm eager to make this site even better than it.

I just don't see the rhyme or reason at which you delete stuff. I thought the focus here was on comedy, so the reasons you gave for removing some things made no sense. I always tried to think up meaningful content to add when I came across something. I don't just add for the sake of adding, and everything I've added was there before on the wikia site. --[[User:Tommy-Vercetti|Tommy-Vercetti]] 16:54, 8 November 2010 (EST)
:The focus here isn't just comedy and there's a limit to it. Sometimes, too much details or comedy can get in the way of the article so we have to trim back. --[[User:Lonegamer78|Lonegamer78]] 17:04, 8 November 2010 (EST)

:We split from the Wikia site two years ago, so it has evolved different rules to us. Some of the things that you added, like the last appearance of Inferno's beast mode, aren't particularly notable in themselves - if we added notes every time a character was seen for the first or last time, the wiki would be covered in them. --[[User:Abates|abates]] 17:12, 8 November 2010 (EST)

== Re:The Pri¢e of Life! UK cover ==

You probably don't remember, but I'm trying to work out what the source is on the credit for Frances Farmer on the UK cover of "The Pri¢e of Life!". According to the history, you added it in March '08. Do you recall where you go the info from? --abates 20:34, 3 November 2010 (EDT)

:Hi! Sorry, I haven't been on in a few days. No I don't remember exactly where I got the info for the cover, but I suspect it was from [http://www.tfarchive.com/comics/marvel/?s=uk_301_310#309 here]. Now, where THEY got it, I have no idea. Maybe they actually have the comic. Hope this helps.--[[User:MistaTee|MistaTee]] 09:19, 15 November 2010 (EST)
::Aha, thanks! --[[User:Abates|abates]] 14:16, 15 November 2010 (EST)

== "Micron Legend" <> "Micron Densetsu" ==

Why "Densetsu" instead of "Legend"? --[[User:Lonegamer78|Lonegamer78]] 03:48, 25 November 2010 (EST)
:That was Interrobang who changed that. I guess because we're using Micron in the name rather than Mini-Con? --[[User:Abates|abates]] 04:05, 25 November 2010 (EST)
::Whoops. And it doesn't make sense. Well, to me. --[[User:Lonegamer78|Lonegamer78]] 04:07, 25 November 2010 (EST)

== Please do not block IPs infinitely ==
Please do not block IPs infinitely. They might change, even if they are static. {{unsigned|86.147.177.207}}
:That IP I banned is owned by a web host, and should be hosting a web site, not making edits here. If that ever changes, the person using that IP can always appeal the block. --[[User:Abates|abates]] 14:41, 19 December 2010 (EST)

== Miniseries pages ==

In reference to your comment when adding the Darkness Rising page, I think that home video release information for a mini-series should go on the main page instead of being repeated on each individual episode page as these are rarely if ever released separately. Just my two cents. --[[User:Khajidha|Khajidha]] 16:59, 11 January 2011 (EST)
:We could have it both places? Taking it off the individual pages might make it harder to find, particularly since, at the moment anyway, we're not linking to the main pages from the episode pages. --[[User:Abates|abates]] 17:05, 11 January 2011 (EST)

== SG Ravage trolling ==

Looking at the history of the page, this guy's been rotating IPs, the rest might need to be preemptively blocked. - [[User:Cattleprod|Cattleprod]] 00:26, 3 February 2011 (EST)
:Yeah, that might be a good idea. Man, some people take this stuff far too seriously. --[[User:Abates|abates]] 00:34, 3 February 2011 (EST)

== Regarding the edits Eagc7 made ==

Apparently you haven't read the [[Megatron (Movie)]] article in awhile, because Eagc7 was just trying to help out. [http://tfwiki.net/w2/index.php?title=Megatron_%28Movie%29&diff=484337&oldid=481886 Xaaron made this edit] almost a year ago, most likely because nobody bothered to fill out that section since 2007. Nobody objected. Eagc7 evidently noticed this and was trying to make the other articles consistent. I know you were only following Detour's lead, but I think you should have investigated why Eagc7 didn't seem to edit Megatron's article, or questioned him. --[[User:FFN|FFN]] 03:37, 12 April 2011 (EDT)
:I kinda disagree with Xaaron's original edit because I think listing the voice actor for an adaptation in the section for the comic is a bit awkward. Do we do that anywhere else? --[[User:Abates|abates]] 04:11, 12 April 2011 (EDT)
::Not that I know of, but the point was he made that edit, nobody objected at the time, and then somebody else tried to do the same and got insta-reverted. Now, if Xaaron's edit shouldn't have been made in the first place we can change Megatron's article or something, but there will still be big charstubfictions there. --[[User:FFN|FFN]] 10:22, 12 April 2011 (EDT)
:::I don't remember seeing Xaaron's edit at the time, so I may not have seen it. Eagc7's edits, however, were removing information. For instance his edit to the [http://tfwiki.net/w2/index.php?title=Judy_Witwicky&diff=575068&oldid=570080 Judy Witwicky] article removed that her lines were cut from "Beginnings" and instead added "Voice actor: Unknown", which implies something completely different. --[[User:Abates|abates]] 16:27, 12 April 2011 (EDT)
::::We´re her lines cut from Begginings? If so sorry but thats becuase i haevnt seen that in years {{unsigned|Eagc7}}
:::::You're one step ahead of me - no Walmarts in New Zealand. I'm sorry I didn't provide better description when doing those reversions. --[[User:Abates|abates]] 17:26, 12 April 2011 (EDT)

== Nemesis Prime ==

As far as I am aware, that snippet of Toxitron's bio is the only mention of Nemesis Prime in the Animated universe. Can you give me some pointers on what else should/could be added?[[User:KrytenKoro|KrytenKoro]] 18:49, 10 June 2011 (EDT)
:Hmm, looking at the article that was deleted, it seems to be only missing the continuity identifier and a disambig template. I presume that was why it was marked for deletion. --[[User:Abates|abates]] 19:31, 10 June 2011 (EDT)
::I will add those, if you recreate the article for me.[[User:KrytenKoro|KrytenKoro]] 21:46, 10 June 2011 (EDT)

For the gallery, I'd like images of the yellow/blue and green dude when they walk next to each other, the red and the blue chars behind them standing in front of each other, the [[Whirl (G1)|Whirl]]-like dude fleeing, the red and blue guys fleeing for Decepticon fire and maybe another image for the grey/red guy fleeing behind them. I'd also like a shot from "The Key to Vector Sigma" featuring at least the green dude for the Notes section. Think you could get these too? [[User:Geewunling|Geewunling]] 18:54, 26 December 2010 (EST)
:Done! --[[User:Abates|abates]] 02:19, 27 December 2010 (EST)

===Bothering you once again. Sorry===
If you can find the time, could you get a few articles some more images? I'm looking for an image of Megatron getting a pair of binoculars from his chest for the continuity ntoes section of "[[The Master Builders]]" and the images as described for the [[Satellite Penitentiary inmates]] and [[Satellite Penitentiary personnel|personnel]]. For the inmates, I like to see the current image replaced by a full panshot one, and I'd prefer Gaihawk to be visible in the drowned inmate-is-still alive shot so it can be added to the episode page's animation error section. [[User:Geewunling|Geewunling]] 05:48, 6 March 2011 (EST)
:I've stuck an image up for the Master Builders! I'll have a look at the Satellite Penitentiary articles this evening, though a pan might be tricky - the NSTC to PAL conversion Madman used means 90% of the frames end up overlapping, but if Shout Factory release Victory in NTSC, that will help. --[[User:Abates|abates]] 14:59, 6 March 2011 (EST)
::I had missed that you added the remaining images. Thank you for that. Though at the risk of sounding ungrateful, might I ask why you opted for an 'escape from explosions'-shot rather than another prison-panshot? Did the frames overlap?
::On a not-image related note, the "Teacher" category. It has no description, so I'd like to know how exactly it is bordered. It currently only has "classroom" teachers listed, but aren't characters like Ani Yoketron, Cyb Brakedown and En Landmine teachers too? [[User:Geewunling|Geewunling]] 05:54, 17 April 2011 (EDT)
:::It seemed like a good idea at the time? I couldn't find much to choose from with what's usable in the episode, and the erupting lava shot seemed to have some interesting body forms in. As for the teachers category, I basically added everyone I could think of at the time who was a teacher, so I'm not surprised I missed some people (well, not so much the UT guys, because I haven't seen Energon or Cybertron since they were broadcast) --[[User:Abates|abates]] 07:17, 17 April 2011 (EDT)

==Put!==
Put, c'mon!
--[[User:Barricade123|Barricade123]] 15:30, 7 November 2010 (EST)

==Hey==

I'm just trying to add interesting stuff to this place. I came from the wikia of this, and I'm eager to make this site even better than it.

I just don't see the rhyme or reason at which you delete stuff. I thought the focus here was on comedy, so the reasons you gave for removing some things made no sense. I always tried to think up meaningful content to add when I came across something. I don't just add for the sake of adding, and everything I've added was there before on the wikia site. --[[User:Tommy-Vercetti|Tommy-Vercetti]] 16:54, 8 November 2010 (EST)
:The focus here isn't just comedy and there's a limit to it. Sometimes, too much details or comedy can get in the way of the article so we have to trim back. --[[User:Lonegamer78|Lonegamer78]] 17:04, 8 November 2010 (EST)

:We split from the Wikia site two years ago, so it has evolved different rules to us. Some of the things that you added, like the last appearance of Inferno's beast mode, aren't particularly notable in themselves - if we added notes every time a character was seen for the first or last time, the wiki would be covered in them. --[[User:Abates|abates]] 17:12, 8 November 2010 (EST)

== Re:The Pri¢e of Life! UK cover ==

You probably don't remember, but I'm trying to work out what the source is on the credit for Frances Farmer on the UK cover of "The Pri¢e of Life!". According to the history, you added it in March '08. Do you recall where you go the info from? --abates 20:34, 3 November 2010 (EDT)

:Hi! Sorry, I haven't been on in a few days. No I don't remember exactly where I got the info for the cover, but I suspect it was from [http://www.tfarchive.com/comics/marvel/?s=uk_301_310#309 here]. Now, where THEY got it, I have no idea. Maybe they actually have the comic. Hope this helps.--[[User:MistaTee|MistaTee]] 09:19, 15 November 2010 (EST)
::Aha, thanks! --[[User:Abates|abates]] 14:16, 15 November 2010 (EST)

== "Micron Legend" <> "Micron Densetsu" ==

Why "Densetsu" instead of "Legend"? --[[User:Lonegamer78|Lonegamer78]] 03:48, 25 November 2010 (EST)
:That was Interrobang who changed that. I guess because we're using Micron in the name rather than Mini-Con? --[[User:Abates|abates]] 04:05, 25 November 2010 (EST)
::Whoops. And it doesn't make sense. Well, to me. --[[User:Lonegamer78|Lonegamer78]] 04:07, 25 November 2010 (EST)

== Please do not block IPs infinitely ==
Please do not block IPs infinitely. They might change, even if they are static. {{unsigned|86.147.177.207}}
:That IP I banned is owned by a web host, and should be hosting a web site, not making edits here. If that ever changes, the person using that IP can always appeal the block. --[[User:Abates|abates]] 14:41, 19 December 2010 (EST)

== Miniseries pages ==

In reference to your comment when adding the Darkness Rising page, I think that home video release information for a mini-series should go on the main page instead of being repeated on each individual episode page as these are rarely if ever released separately. Just my two cents. --[[User:Khajidha|Khajidha]] 16:59, 11 January 2011 (EST)
:We could have it both places? Taking it off the individual pages might make it harder to find, particularly since, at the moment anyway, we're not linking to the main pages from the episode pages. --[[User:Abates|abates]] 17:05, 11 January 2011 (EST)

== SG Ravage trolling ==

Looking at the history of the page, this guy's been rotating IPs, the rest might need to be preemptively blocked. - [[User:Cattleprod|Cattleprod]] 00:26, 3 February 2011 (EST)
:Yeah, that might be a good idea. Man, some people take this stuff far too seriously. --[[User:Abates|abates]] 00:34, 3 February 2011 (EST)

== Regarding the edits Eagc7 made ==

Apparently you haven't read the [[Megatron (Movie)]] article in awhile, because Eagc7 was just trying to help out. [http://tfwiki.net/w2/index.php?title=Megatron_%28Movie%29&diff=484337&oldid=481886 Xaaron made this edit] almost a year ago, most likely because nobody bothered to fill out that section since 2007. Nobody objected. Eagc7 evidently noticed this and was trying to make the other articles consistent. I know you were only following Detour's lead, but I think you should have investigated why Eagc7 didn't seem to edit Megatron's article, or questioned him. --[[User:FFN|FFN]] 03:37, 12 April 2011 (EDT)
:I kinda disagree with Xaaron's original edit because I think listing the voice actor for an adaptation in the section for the comic is a bit awkward. Do we do that anywhere else? --[[User:Abates|abates]] 04:11, 12 April 2011 (EDT)
::Not that I know of, but the point was he made that edit, nobody objected at the time, and then somebody else tried to do the same and got insta-reverted. Now, if Xaaron's edit shouldn't have been made in the first place we can change Megatron's article or something, but there will still be big charstubfictions there. --[[User:FFN|FFN]] 10:22, 12 April 2011 (EDT)
:::I don't remember seeing Xaaron's edit at the time, so I may not have seen it. Eagc7's edits, however, were removing information. For instance his edit to the [http://tfwiki.net/w2/index.php?title=Judy_Witwicky&diff=575068&oldid=570080 Judy Witwicky] article removed that her lines were cut from "Beginnings" and instead added "Voice actor: Unknown", which implies something completely different. --[[User:Abates|abates]] 16:27, 12 April 2011 (EDT)
::::We´re her lines cut from Begginings? If so sorry but thats becuase i haevnt seen that in years {{unsigned|Eagc7}}
:::::You're one step ahead of me - no Walmarts in New Zealand. I'm sorry I didn't provide better description when doing those reversions. --[[User:Abates|abates]] 17:26, 12 April 2011 (EDT)

== Nemesis Prime ==

As far as I am aware, that snippet of Toxitron's bio is the only mention of Nemesis Prime in the Animated universe. Can you give me some pointers on what else should/could be added?[[User:KrytenKoro|KrytenKoro]] 18:49, 10 June 2011 (EDT)
:Hmm, looking at the article that was deleted, it seems to be only missing the continuity identifier and a disambig template. I presume that was why it was marked for deletion. --[[User:Abates|abates]] 19:31, 10 June 2011 (EDT)
::I will add those, if you recreate the article for me.[[User:KrytenKoro|KrytenKoro]] 21:46, 10 June 2011 (EDT)
:::Oh okay, you already did it. Grazie![[User:KrytenKoro|KrytenKoro]] 21:53, 10 June 2011 (EDT)

The '''Wings of Honor continuity''' is a ''[[Generation 1 (franchise)|Generation 1]]'' [[Continuity|universe]] based loosely on [[The Transformers (cartoon)|the original cartoon]].<ref>[http://www.transformersclub.com/members/transforum/msgs.cfm?msg=125826&forum=22 Collectors' Club forum thread] in which Pete Sinclair says the Wings of Honor continuity "is VERY similar to the original G1 toon, though it is different enough to allow us some leeway in the overall story telling. [...] Scourge will have always been in his BotCon 2009 body, Hot Rod in his Universe Legends body and so on. As time goes on there will be more subtle, and not so subtle, differences."</ref> It has been depicted in [[Fun Publications]] comics and prose stories, the first of which was titled "[[Wings of Honor]]".

==Overview==
Most of the Wings of Honor stories are set in [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]]'s distant past, at the outbreak of the [[Great War (G1)|Great War]]. They establish that there was an [[Autobot]] [[Cybertron Elite Guard|Elite Guard]] at that time, from whose winged insignia the title is derived. Some action also occurs in a nebulously modern setting, but so far only as a framing device. In one of those instances, [[Nexus Prime]] declares that this universe has some sort of importance to him and his quest, though he doesn't know exactly what.

In broad strokes this continuity hews to the universe of the original cartoon, but the series creators have declared that it will diverge in some details. For example, the fact that the young Elite Guardsman [[Kup (G1)|Kup]] is surrounded mostly by characters who never appeared in the cartoon helps avoid problems of relative age... but there are still a few [[Combaticon (G1)|questionable]] [[Female Autobots|cases]].

==Timeline==
Writer and editor [[Pete Sinclair]] has given the following timeline for events in the Wings of Honor continuity:<ref>[http://www.allspark.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=67730&st=80&p=1489241#entry1489241 Allspark.com post by Pete Sinclair]</ref>

==Notes==
===Transformers references===
* [[Derrick J. Wyatt]] designed Cheetor with hexagonal spots to emulate the original [[Cheetor (BW)|Cheetor]] without looking overly organic, but the finished toy gives his vehicle mode a full-on organic-look cheetah spot pattern. If you look ''reeeal'' close, you'll spot the reason for the spots in this comic: when Pipes tumbles from his perch, he splatters black paint all over vehicle-mode Cheetor!
* Ramhorn, Volks and Chase were all designed for inclusion in the ''Animated'' cartoon, but didn't make it into any of its numerous crowd scenes. Troop and Sepelak seem to have gone out of their way to include them here in order to give them their only fictional appearances outside of ''[[Transformers Animated: The AllSpark Almanac II|The AllSpark Almanac II]]''.
*Chromia's appearance hybridizes the two distinct designs she was simultaneously given by separate sources, by placing her [[Chromia (G1)|Generation 1-inspired]] head (from ''Almanac II'') on a blue [[Arcee (Animated)|Arcee-styled]] body (from the Japanese ''[[Transformers Cards]]'' game).
* The Wanted posters back at the station show [[Wasp]] and [[Mudflap (Animated)|Mudflap]], the latter being a new character based on the ''[[Cybertron (franchise)|Cybertron]]'' [[Mudflap (Cybertron)|incarnation of the character]].
* ''Animated'' versions of [[Jackpot (G1)|Jackpot]] and [[Hubcap (G1)|Hubcap]], two of Sepelak's favorite characters, appear in the police station. The duo's Generation 1 counterparts were previously seen together in the Sepelak-and-Troop penned "[[Gone Too Far]]", where they were interrogated by [[Stungun (TransTech)|Stungun]], an ''Animated'' version of whom appears to do the same thing here.

===Real-world references===
*TBA

===Trivia===
*The various signs and posters written in [[Cybertronian languages|Ancient Autobot]]:
**Pipes and Huffer's sign is for "Motormaster's Stunt Convoy" with the starburst on the poster noting that it is "Live" (a lead-in to the plot of the upcoming [[BotCon 2011]] comic)
**The ramp Crumplezone flies off of is marked "Hazard"
**The (upside-down and busted-open) crates are labelled "Fragile"
**The wanted posters just say "Wanted" (duh) and list Wasp and Mudflap's names
**Depth Charge's door nameplate reads "Chief"
**The order Depth Charge shows Cheetor says "Transfer"

Scrounge (G1)

2011-03-12T10:51:57Z

{{factions|autobot}}
{{disambig3|Scrounge}}
:''Scrounge is an [[Autobot]] from the [[Generation 1 (franchise)|Generation 1]] [[continuity family]].''
[[Image:Scroungefullbody.jpg|right|234px|thumb|Just keep 'em turning, don't stop 'em rolling, the fire is on!]]
'''Scrounge''' has a special arm. There is no other like it.

He is a lot like [[Bumblebee (G1)|Bumblebee]]—he is relatively small, weak, and over-eager to prove himself to the other Autobots; he's a passable spy thanks to the fact that he has a special arm (there is no other like it) specially designed for surveillance; he is yellow. Unlike Bumblebee, with his eagerness to please and general excitability, he has a habit of imagining any little bit of info he stumbles across into a huge and vital revelation that will change the course of the [[Great War (G1)|war]].

The Autobots have heard him cry [[turbofox]] a few too many times, and so treat any info he uncovers with a good helping of doubt. Even his friend and partner [[Blaster (G1)|Blaster]] tends to treat him as a useless, tag-along loser.

:''Portuguese name (Portugal comic):'' '''Crava'''
:''Portuguese name (Brazil comic):'' '''Surrupio'''

==Fiction==
===Marvel Comics continuity===
[[Image:Scroungealtmode.jpg|left|250px|thumb|He gets around, nyuk nyuk.]]
Scrounge, while searching for a clue on the whereabout of the abducted [[neutral]] scientist [[Spanner (G1)|Spanner]], infiltrated [[Darkmount]] and obtained coded information that was of great value to the [[Decepticon]]s. He radioed his accomplishment to [[Blaster (G1)|Blaster]] and urged to meet with him, but failed to show up himself when [[Shrapnel (G1)|Shrapnel]] captured him in the [[Dead End (place)|Dead End]]. Scrounge was brought before [[Straxus (G1)|Straxus]], who ripped of his special arm because the Autobot refused to disclose what he had discovered. Right after, Straxus decided it didn't matter what Scrounge knew, since he would never be able to tell [[Cybertron Seven|his comrades]]. Without another thought, Scrounge was thrown into the [[smelting pool]].

[[Image:Scroungedisarmed.jpg|right|150px|thumb|And thus the Armmasters were born!]]
Blaster belatedly came to save his little buddy, who was little more than a melting torso by that point. Scrounge died a heroic death getting the Autobots the info, making them realize that they misjudged him, and leaving Blaster with a whole lot of angst, anger, and guilt to work through by killing as many Decepticons as he was able and generally being a hardass. {{storylink|The Smelting Pool!}}

Scrounge's death continued to hit Blaster hard as the war progressed, first as a reason to not repeat his loss when the scientist [[Spanner (G1)|Spanner]] went missing. {{storylink|The Bridge to Nowhere!}} Blaster angrily brought up Scrounge's death later on [[Earth]], after [[G.B. Blackrock]] questioned Blaster's credentials as an Autobot warrior. {{storylink|Crater Critters}}

[[Image:Scroungeidw.jpg|left|100px|thumb|His special trash! There is no other like it!]]
Before the war began, Scrounge could be found scrounging for trash in the deepest, darkest slums of [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]]. He still has a special arm. How many others are like it is unknown at this point. {{storylink|Megatron Origin issue 2|Megatron Origin #2}}

During the war, Scrounge fell in with the Autobots, but was on the list of warriors to be utilized only as a last resort, presumably because, like [[Wheelie (G1)|Wheelie]], he's low on useful skills. (Besides his special arm, of course. There is, after all, no other like it.) {{storylink|Spotlight: Wheelie}}

[[Image:ScroungeIDW 2.JPG|right|200px|thumb|Scrounge really wanted a TV guest spot.]]
He was seen on the [[Orvus Base]] space station orbiting over [[Salvvatan VI]], mere seconds before [[Sixshot]] ripped through it. Sixshot threw Scrounge through the main viewing monitor, presumably out of jealousy of his special arm. After all, he has six modes but nothing like it! {{storylink|Spotlight: Metroplex}}

{{bigquote|Scrounge is what folks call me, but that’s just my ''nom-de-guerre,'' sir. But I'm really [[Emirate]] [[Xaaron]], from universe [[Universal stream|Primax 093.0 Epsilon]].}}

When [[Bulletbike (TransTech)|Bulletbike]], CEO of [[RoboCo]], found his [[spark]] trapped inside a "[[lowtech]]" body that was not his own, a poor deluded lowtech named Scrounge was the only other Transformer who offered sympathy. Just like Bulletbike, Scrounge claimed to be someone he was not, by all outward appearances, but unlike Bulletbike, Scrounge was indeed mistaken. Insane though he may have been, he was lucid enough to be of legitimate help, plus he was harmless enough.

Scrounge agreed to help Bulletbike find [[EconTerm]], though at increasing peril. Bulletbike was finding a growing appetite for violence, a troublesome tick that Scrounge was able to narrowly avoid. Ultimately, Scrounge was instrumental in providing support for Bulletbike's crusade to locate the beings who had transplanted his spark into another body, even if it resulted in Bulletbike's death.

In the aftermath, Scrounge was given excellent treatment by [[Cheetor (TransTech)|Commander Cheetor]]. The poor thing just needed some proper care. {{storylink|I, Lowtech}}

==Notes==
[[Image:Scroungespecialhand.jpg|right|125px|thumb|Autobots with silly abilities like turning invisible or making holograms only wish they could do this.]]
* Scrounge's death haunted Blaster for a long time. He's kind of like Blaster's [[wikia:c:marvel:Gwen Stacy (Earth-616)|Gwen Stacy]], only with a special arm instead of go-go boots and breasts.

* Scrounge has a special arm (how many times can we mention that?) with two [[Sensors|sensored]] fingers that pick up sound and video. He claims there is no other like it. However, in the ''Classics'' story "[[Games of Deception]]", [[Elita One]] had a similar setup. And in ''[[Transformers Animated (cartoon)|Transformers Animated]]'', [[Megatron (Animated)|Megatron]] had a setup where he could make his fingers control a headmaster unit. The fingers detached like Scrounge's. Should have registered that patent, Scrounge.

* The Scrounge in "[[I, Lowtech]]" who thinks he's actually Emirate Xaaron isn't very good at being Xaaron. He claims he has a [[Matrix of Leadership|Matrix]] and that he's from universe Primax 093.0 Epsilon. [[Universal stream|Decoding that technobabble]] allegedly pegs him as an Emirate Xaaron from Transformers Fan Club fiction published in 1993. Yyyyyeah.

* [[Bob Budiansky]] revealed at one of his [[BotCon 2010]] panels that Scrounge was partially based upon Gunga Din, but whether he meant the version of the character in [[wikipedia:Gunga Din|the original poem]] or [[wikipedia:Gunga Din (film)|the 1939 Cary Grant film]] is uncertain. Either way, a classy lineage!

* According to a Hasbro Briefing Binder for 1985 product, "Scrounge" was originally going to be the name for [[Scavenger (G1)|Scavenger]]. When that didn't happen, apparently Bob Budiansky found a use for the name elsewhere. [http://boltax.blogspot.com/2010/12/ron-friedman-auction-hasbro-briefing.html]

Scrounge (SG)

{{disambig3.5|the drones employed by evil Autobots in "Shattered Glass"|the heroic Autobot scout from Generation 1|Scrounge (G1)|Scrounge}}
:''Scrounges are [[Autobot]] [[Drone|drones]] from the "[[Shattered Glass (franchise)|Shattered Glass]]" [[continuity family]].''

[[Image:ScroungeSG.jpg|right|250px|thumb|"What is your major malfuntion, Private Pyle?!"]]
When the [[Autobot]]s need drones to do the dirty work, they bring in the '''Scrounges'''. These silver drones possess a curved, smooth structure due to their "war wheel" alternate mode. They are programmed with slave drives to keep them loyal to their programmer. They would be harmless, save for the large cannons that make up their left arms.

Scrounges are powerful in numbers, and they are easily expendable. Their simple obedient personality makes them perfect whipping boys for [[Blaster (SG)|Blaster]], their current master.

{{quote|This is my special arm, sir! There are many like it but this one is mine!|A Scrounge in response to Blaster's screaming query|"[[Do Over]]"}}

==Fiction==
===Shattered Glass===
To keep Blaster out of the way while the Autobots were preparing the ''[[Ark (SG)|Ark]]'' for launch, he was given a group of Scrounges to boss around like a drill sergeant. Later when the ''Ark'' was engaged in battle with the ''[[Nemesis (SG)|Nemesis]]'', Blaster suggested sending out the Scrounges. This would have ended in the Scrounges' destruction, but Blaster didn't care, failing to see their usefulness. [[Goldbug (SG)|Goldbug]] didn't think that was a good idea. {{storylink|Do Over}}

When [[Rodimus (SG)|Rodimus]] came up with a plan to hold [[Earth]] hostage for ransom by hijacking one of the [[Burpleson Air Force Base|humans' military bases]] to gain control of the planet's [[Global Orbiting Defense Satellite|destructive defense satellites]], Blaster thought they could simply send in the Scrounges as their plan of attack. But Rodimus decided to go for a more standard infiltration attempt instead, and ordered Blaster to lead a diversion. Blaster headed up a squad of Autobots and Scrounges to attack the base from the outside, while Rodimus, other Autobots, and their human allies attacked the base from the inside by letting themselves get "arrested".

When the [[Decepticon]]s made an assault to liberate the base, Blaster's squad of Scrounges attempted to keep [[Heatwave]] from reaching the satellite's controller system, but [[Sir Soundwave|Soundwave]] pitched in and disabled them with the power of rock. {{storylink|Eye in the Sky}}

Months later, [[Side Burn (SG)|Side Burn]] and [[Wheeljack (SG)|Wheeljack]] were busy building a [[Stellar Spanner]] under the orders of Goldbug. Wheeljack thought the [[Plait Expanse]] might deflect the Spanner dangerously off-course, so Goldbug initially suggested Side Burn as a test subject. Side Burn pointed out he would be needed in case of any repairs, and suggested they use a Scrounge instead. Goldbug relented at Side Burn's logic, though he also complained it would take hours to procure a Scrounge.

Fortunately for the Scrounges, however, an alternate "[[Heatwave|test subject]]" eventually presented himself instead... {{storylink|Blitzwing Bop}}
