| The name or term "Cybertron" refers to more than one character or idea. For a list of other meanings, see Cybertron (disambiguation). |
Cybertron is the third and final Transformers franchise in the Unicron Trilogy.
The Cybertron franchise featured the following primary components:
A comic book series was initially planned for Cybertron, but its intended publisher, Dreamwave, went out of business before the line began. The Transformers fan club newsletter includes a short comic story in each issue which is branded with the Cybertron name. This comic, while featuring UT characters, also stars various characters from other timelines, and is loosely tied to 3H's Universe series.
Galaxy Force
Galaxy Force, the Japanese version of Cybertron, is somewhat different than its English counterpart.
The general plot and storylines remain very similar (with the exception of the usual differences in character names.) The main difference between Cybertron and Galaxy Force is that Galaxy Force has no story ties to any of the previous Transformers series. It is treated as a new stand-alone continuity featuring entirely new characters, whereas Cybertron is scripted as part of the Unicron Trilogy with many of its characters representing new forms of important characters from that continuity family.
This division leads not only to character differences but also to different takes on some key events. The Unicron Singularity (or Grand Black Hole in Japan) was not created by the destruction of Unicron in the Galaxy force telling, but occured due to the loss of the Force Chips (planet keys) that acted as the spark of Primus.
