Revision as of 08:54, 15 March 2020
This character has no official visual representation in any Transformers product or media... yet, at least.
As leaders of the people of the United Kingdom, the British monarchy have occasionally found themselves involved in the Transformers' conflict on Earth.
Fiction
Shattered Glass
In the early 21st century of a strange and backward universe, the British desired to invade the United States of America, though the Queen argued against bombing the very land she wished to conquer. Eye in the Sky
Be the Hero books
Time-Quake
Upon accidentally traveling from the 18th century to the 22nd century, John Hawkins mistook Bulkhead for being some mechanical trick of King George III, enemy of the early United States. Time-Quake
Wings Universe
When Clench's Decepticon Syndicate attempted to kidnap and ransom the Queen of England, UK citizen Pyro Ignatius Spark gathered his own team of Second Generation Autobots to rescue Her Majesty. Pyro was subsequently knighted by the Queen for this brave act. Clench's profile
Rescue Bots cartoon
In the 17th century, King Charles I was so impressed at Horace Burns's heroic service, that he made Griffin Rock a Protectorate of the Crown and named him King Horace the First. Burns turned it down in favor of installing some sort of weird democracy. King Burns
The Last Knight film
Both Queen Elizabeth I and Queen Victoria were members of the Order of the Witwiccans, a secret society who knew of the presence of Transformers on Earth and worked to keep their secret. Portraits of both queens were included in Edmund Burton's collection of Witwiccan/Cybertronian artifacts. The Last Knight
Notes
- For the entirety of the Transformers brand thus far, Elizabeth II has been the Queen of the United Kingdom. She is likely the unnamed queen in Wings continuity while it is less clear if this is true of Shattered Glass.
- The term "Queen of England" is often used erroneously by foreigners in modern times. As Wikipedia explains, "of England" stopped being the official parlance when England and Scotland united in 1707.
- King Arthur and Cnut the Great are not mentioned on this page because they predate the founding of the Kingdom of England in the year 927.
- The thinking by James Roberts in the 2005-2018 IDW comics is that by Nominus Prime's time, the Primes had become like the Queen: a constitutional leader but with the government having more of the power.[1]
