Hi, I removed that pic of the towtruck you uploaded onto Longarm's page, because the file size was far too large (the wiki software warns you when you upload a filesize over its recommended limits) and since there is no information as to where it comes from (TFW2005 is not the source in this case), I don't know of the legality of using it here. --FFN 14:39, 18 August 2007 (UTC)

Picture cropped and reuploaded! --ItsWalky 14:42, 18 August 2007 (UTC)

Thank you a lot for your efforts !! :) --TX55 15:17, 18 August 2007 (UTC)

Temporary Files

Units of Time

Marvel Comics

Breem

8.3 minutes

Originally defined in the Marvel Comics, also used in Dreamwave's comics.

Orn

???

A unit of undetermined duration. It is apparently defined as "one Cybertronian lunar day".

Vorn

83 years

Originally defined in the Marvel Comics, also used in Dreamwave's comics.

Marvel UK comics

Cycle

2 hours

In the UK G1 comic story, "Target 2006", Ultra Magnus timed his mission on Earth in Cycles that were exactly equal to 2 hours.

Groon

~1 hour

Roughly equivalent to an hour. In the UK G1 comic story, "The Magnificent Six!", Megadeath let his broken Autobot prisoners go with a neutronic blast imminent in two groons. Retelling this event to Silverbolt in 1990, Jazz described the time as two hours.

Joor

???

Used idiomatically like "hour", but of unknown duration. In the UK G1 comic story, "The Magnificent Six!", Steamhammer had an inspection parade scheduled at 0700 joors, not long after Cybertron's lunar dawn.

Beast Wars

Nano-klik

~1 second

As with the Beast Wars cycle, this unit is on the order of a second, as defined by the series' story editors. Used similarly in IDW comics.

Milli-Cycle

???

A unit of undetermined duration. It was often mentioned since Episode 6 in Beast Wars cartoon.

Cycle

~1 minute

Beast Wars cartoon story editors Bob Forward and Larry DiTillio stated that the "cycles" used in their series were very roughly equivalent to a minute. Maybe more, maybe less, but something of that order of magnitude.

Mega-cycle

~1 hour

As with the Beast Wars cycle, this unit is on the order of an hour, as defined by the series' story editors. Used incongruously in The Agenda, Part 1 to refer to a much longer span of time. (One of the Tripedicus council says, "His ship and the Axalon both vanished last megacycle. The Maximal probes never found them.") Ben Yee cites a statement from DiTillio that another unit -- the deca-cycle -- is roughly year-like in length.[1] This may be the unit that was intended for that line of dialogue.

Day

~20 hours

A unit of undetermined name. As with the Beast Wars cycle, this unit is on the order of a day on Cybertron, as defined by the series' story editors.

Deca-cycle

~30 days

As with the Beast Wars cycle, this unit is on the order of a month, as defined by the series' story editors.

Stellar cycle

~400 days

Orbital period (a Cybertronian "year") for Cybertron as stated by Larry DiTillio in information sent to Ben Yee. DiTillio also volunteers that Cybertron's rotational period (a "day") is ~20 hours.

IDW universe

Klik

1.2 minutes

Defined for use in the IDW universe by Simon Furman in a forum post.

Cycle

1 hour 15 minutes (1.25 hours)

Defined for use in the IDW universe by Simon Furman in a forum post.[2]

Deca-cycle

~3 weeks

Defined for use in the IDW universe by Simon Furman in a forum post.

Mega-cycle

93 hours

Defined for use in the IDW universe by Simon Furman in a forum post.

Meta-cycle

13 months

Defined for use in the IDW universe by Simon Furman in a forum post.

Stellar cycle

~7.5 months

Defined for use in the IDW universe by Simon Furman in a forum post.

Miscellaneous

Astrosecond

.498 seconds

Defined by Dreamwave's More Than Meets The Eye #8 as 1/1000th of a breem. Astroseconds as referenced in the Generation 1 cartoon seem to be much shorter, but were never defined. In particular, in "Divide and Conquer" Shockwave states that the space bridge will materialize within 72 billion astroseconds, an interval exceeding a millenium if Dreamwave's definition is applied. Even ignoring this extreme case, astroseconds in general cartoon use appeared to be much less than one second each.

Quartex

???

A unit of undetermined duration. In the very first Transformers cartoon episode, "More Than Meets The Eye, Part 1", Wheeljack complains that the shoddy energy conductors he and Bumblebee picked up don't have enough juice in them to last a quartex, so make of that what you will.
