User:Daniel Adkins/Sandbox:Transformers Hero

Transformers: Hero was a planned installment in the long-running Transformers franchise. The show was eventually turned into Transformers: Animated.

Fiction

Little is known about the original story ideas of the show. It presumably would have been a new continuity. It is likely that the "superhero" theme of Animated was present from the start given the title. Many of the Animated characters (and their distinctive traits) were present during Hero.

Characters included:

Autobots	Decepticons
Optimus Prime Prowl Red Alert Hot Shot Ultra Magnus Jetfire and Jetstorm Rhinox	Megatron Starscream Soundwave Lugnut Blitzwing Lockdown Someone who looks suspiciously like Tarn, but could be Megatron, idk

Toys

The design aesthetic for Hero varied greatly from the later Animated line. The Hero characters had much more intricate designs.
