Talk:Spontaneous recoloration

Should we differentiate between repaints and black repaints? The concept of a http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_body has been mentioned enough in those ehobby bios to warrent an article. 24.192.196.242 14:28, 11 June 2009 (EDT)

Killing Jar - No.

The Killing Jar listings here do not fit the article's subject. They were a result of light fuctioning differently on the otherside of the blackhole. No actual change to the TFs structure/pigment/power was implied... as Marissa and the Quint changed too, IIRC. --76.28.72.27 10:20, 4 August 2009 (EDT)

Maybe light was functioning differently, maybe the whole universe was. I think it's worth a mention. --Jimsorenson 12:31, 4 August 2009 (EDT)

Becoming EEEEEVIL?

I'm wondering if transformers who change colours upon switching factions should count here? Like Rhinox, in that one episode where megatron turned him evil? Or the Constructicons, in Animated, when they were branded, and the rest of their bodies spontaneously changed to G-1-esque colours? --Ascendron 12:07, 4 August 2009 (EDT)

Plus there are the Micromaster Collection color changes. I think we need to tweak the article away from the 'power-up' section a bit, since there are lots of other examples--Jimsorenson 12:31, 4 August 2009 (EDT)

Silver Coat

What's a silver coat? It's not linked to anywhere else on the site. --Jimsorenson 12:31, 4 August 2009 (EDT)

Transformers Headmasters

Shouldn't Soundblaster and Twincast be added here? And also what about Lioconvoy's minty coloration in BW Neo? Not to mention Burning Convoy and Flash Lioconvoy. Additionally in the Armada Section nobody put Optimus Prime, who does feature altered colors in the last two episodes.

Twincast and Soundblaster's recolorations weren't spontaneous. As for Burning Convoy, Flash Lioconvoy and minty Lioconvoy, those were Burning Justice and suchlike instances where the body's colors weren't changed, they were just overshadowed by said Burning Justice. --Detour 23:34, 12 October 2010 (EDT)

when it comes to the whole matter of a transformer powering up and becoming more powerful from it in the long term i have been giving this quite a bit of thought lately asa long time transformers /dragonball/z/gt/zoids fan

when it comes to rid about halfway through the series the 3 Autobot brothers x-brawn prowl and Sideburn were given the ability to power up into their supercharged modes.

now i have been giving this a bit of thought lately

when it comes to the matrix, vector sigma, cybertron, and the allspark, they are all parts of the same greater being that is primus

each living Cybertronian as a living being possesses a spark bond to the matrix , vector sigma , cybertron and the eternal Allspark of Primus itself

now imagine for a moment that each individual/ or at the very least certain individuals could actually possess to their person the potential the power and the ability to power up/supercharge/self evolve / self ascend at will for want of a better way of wording it as a way for that person to over time work their way up through the various stages of enhanced and upgraded Cybertronian that separates the average individual in question, say a minibot like bumblebee or cliffjumper from a bot or con like Optimus or Megatron in terms of over all physical strength, stamina, endurance, speed, agility, intelligence and over all firepower .

and through that bond possess the potential over time to go from being a relatively normal Cybertronain to being one who has used that bond to self enhance and otherwise evolve their body over time to being at the most extreme a Cybertronian who's overall power levels could potentially rival or even surpass those of even the most powerful of Autobots or Decepticons such as Optimus Prime or Megatron

in essence it being a case of the spirit being willing though the flesh be weak+ mind over matter due to that person channeling thier will power in such a way throughout the whole thing that it is literally a case of the character having to learn how to channel life energy through their sparkbond to cybertron,vector sigma, the allspark, and primus and the power of their very life spark with that person having to literally earn thier full body upgrade through a thoroughly brutal combination of fighting spirit hard work, determination,will power a truly grueling fighting training regimen and that person's desire to constantly push theirself to become a better and more powerful fighter over time for the sake of it itself to achieve over time that which would be the presumably impossible when seen through the optics of a cybertronian who has worked their way up through the ranks to achieve that same set of personal power levels through full body enhancements and upgrades

in a manner of speaking it would be a case of self evolution self ascenion at will and self reformatting happening all at once in the moment it happens to that person

as they say what does not kill a person can only make them stronger but this would be taking it to the extremes

In essence it being a reasonable comparison to a saiyan character from the dragonball/z/gt mythos ascending to super saiyan, 2, 3, 4

That is to say that one could look at this scenario as being a transformer adaption of the concept the idea and its execution as it were.

I actually think it would be interesting to see that idea explored throughout a animated series or comic storyline.

I actually think it would be possible for a g1 era Autobot or Decepticon or a beast era Maximal or Predacon to achieve that kind of self evolution assuming that the individual in question can successfully learn to control and properly channel the power of their lifespark , can also master processor over matter and in doing so use the two simultaneously together as a way to self evolve their body through the use of willpower as a way to both control and direct that persons metamorphosis into a more powerful being on a full body submoleculer/nanotechnological level.

Blackarachnia

Shouldn't Blackarachnia be counted in the temporary section seeing as she turned solid black in the episode where she absorbed the power of the floating island? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Nobleboivin (talk • contribs){{#if:| {{{2}}}|}}.

Gif

Um, the gif seems to stop before it can really show the recoloration results.Metalstar (talk) 13:37, 23 January 2024 (EST)

Not sure what you mean? The colors are fully shown in the gif, and holds on them for a full second before looping. Besides, it's meant to focus on the actual transition between color schemes, not the new scheme itself. -- Cyberlink420 (talk) 14:12, 23 January 2024 (EST)

Nevermind, it was something on my end anyway.Metalstar (talk) 13:28, 24 January 2024 (EST)
