Fiction
Beast Wars cartoon
When Optimus Primal piloted a stasis pod into the center of the Planet Buster and detonated a transwarp cell, the destruction was accompanied by a quantum surge. Other Voices, Part 2
The quantum surge irradiated both the Axalon and Darksyde. The strange energies unleashed altered Megatron, Tarantulas, Cheetor, and Rattrap, giving them new Transmetal forms. Aftermath The surge also affected the protoforms still in stasis pods, resulting in any and all awakened Transformers having partial or whole Transmetal bodies. Coming of the Fuzors (Part 1) Local deposits of unstable Energon were either destroyed or converted to stable Energon cubes by the surge. Coming of the Fuzors (Part 2)
The wavefront eventually reached Cybertronian space, where it disrupted a Predacon outpost and alerted the Tripredacus Council to Megatron's whereabouts. The council arranged for a Predacon satellite to explode, blocking the wavefront from being detected by Maximal sensors. The Agenda (Part 1)
The connection of the surge to Depth Charge's spontaneously becoming a Transmetal as he entered the Beast Wars time zone is not known. Deep Metal

The sudden activation of quantum surge energy in Megatron, obtained from unknown events, granted him black coloration and greatly increased strength and resilience. Destron Leader Megatron Black Ver.
IDW Beast Wars comics
In Primax 208.06 Zeta, it was Blackarachnia who piloted the spacecraft which destroyed the Planet Buster, tricked into doing so by Megatron. Ask Vector Prime When the quantum surge hit, Starscream (this one a dimension-hopper from Primax 206.15 Gamma) was able to influence the mutation of his possessed body of Waspinator to give Waspinator a third jet fighter mode resembling Starscream's old alt-mode.

Ask Vector Prime
In Aurex 1104.30-JH Zeta, Tarantulas gathered a cache of the powerful and volatile Super Energon. Optimus Primal hijacked Tarantulas's makeshift spacecraft and sacrificed himself to destroy it in orbit, causing a Super Energon Transwarp Explosion which gave a Transmetal upgrade to many of the participants in the Beast Wars and damaged some stasis pods to create Fuzors.
