Can we justify saying that big power plant and the cemetery were in Jersey? 'Cause IRL they're both in Philadelphia. |

New Jersey is a location in the United States in the Generation 1 continuity family.
The state of New Jersey picks up anything that won't fit in New York City. It's got tollways, landfills, swamps, secret alien headquarters, guys with shotguns, and its very own monster. It is known by some humans as "Hell on Earth".
Fiction
Marvel comics continuity
The Scorponok-led Decepticons built their Earth-based headquarters underneath a garbage dump in this New Jersey after the loss of both Ratbat's island ship and Scorponok's starcruiser at the hands of the Underbase-powered Starscream. Ignuanis was sighted by humans wandering about in one of the state's swamps near the base, prompting both humans and the Off Road Patrol to come investigate. The Off Road team, along with the Sports Car Patrol, were later quite befuddled by the state's toll road system. King Con!
Later, the Autobots landed in the New Jersey swamps to surrender to Scorponok's forces, as a prelude to an alliance against Unicron. Surrender!
Scorponok's base was destroyed when Starscream and Shockwave attacked shortly thereafter, and the Transformers within had to escape via an exit through the murky waters surrounding the base, finding themselves stuck in the mud somewhere in the swamps of Jersey. A Decepticon-vs-Decepticon battle ensued, soon spilling over into Manhattan. ...All This and Civil War 2
