Synopsis

Date Index 316.270 AU

Releasing himself from the shackles of doubt and hesitance, Apelinq is done waiting inside Wrecker Command. Having developed a shield suit to protect himself from the effects of Megatron's virus, he decides to finally get outside and figure out what's going on... and maybe take out a few attack drones along the way.

Notes

• Mentioned characters: Megatron and his attack drones

Continuity notes

• As Apelinq prepares to finally exit the Wrecker Command Base, he states that he'd "like to keep a low profile". This is a sneaky little excuse for why he never appeared in the onscreen events of the Beast Machines cartoon, despite having apparently been there the whole time thus far.

Transformers references

• Apelinq swears by the Pit.
• Apelinq's shield suit seems to be an in-universe explanation for why his toy (a redeco of the Transmetals Optimus Primal toy) resembles a Transmetal despite not actually being one: the shiny metallic alloy covering his body is meant to be his suit's protective shielding.
