Talk:Mount St. Hilary
In regards to the cartoon, I seem to recall in "Transport to Oblivion" that Cliffjumper was standing outside of the volcano and looking at the ocean. I think that was the only time the ocean was ever shown to be anywhere near the volcano. That worth a mention? --DrSpengler 21:39, 16 January 2007 (UTC)
- Possibly. And add a merchandise section. There wa sa puzzle, or a battle game or SOMETHIGN explicitly named 'the battle of Mt Saint Hillary' IIRC. It's in one of the Alvarez books.
- Also, you need a Micromaster reissue note here. (After BW, 'cuz they find pred wreckage.)-Derik 21:41, 16 January 2007 (UTC)
This sentence -- "The location of the Decepticon headquarters however, implies that the Transformers crashed somewhere in the coastal region." -- I don't quite follow, as the location of Decepticon HQ is... well, tricky. The map of the oil tankers in "Day of the Machines" puts it in the Atlantic, and depending on how far and in what direction the sky platform in "The Girl Who Loved Powerglide" travelled, that episode could be taken as evidence for the Atlantic as well. Of course, that would mean Carly drove across the entire country in "The Immoblizer." So, like I said... tricky. I don't think Decepticon HQ is very useful in locating the Ark's volcano. --KilMichaelMcC 21:44, 16 January 2007 (UTC)
- Driving time/Distance means absolutely nothing in Transformers. I mean we have Cars driving to the North Pole and Cheetah's running from Africa to North America. 69.14.158.214 21:50, 16 January 2007 (UTC)
- Well, technically we have cars-that-are-actually-aliens driving from (presumably) Oregon to somewhere within the Arctic Circle. I don't recall Cheetor ever running to North America. But that's kinda besides the point: how exactly does the location of Decepticon HQ (possibly the middle of the Atlantic Ocean) "imply that the Transformers crashed in the coastal region"? --KilMichaelMcC 21:56, 16 January 2007 (UTC)
- My reasoning for using the Decepticon base was that MTMTE seems to suggest (to me anyway) that the Decepticon starship crashed nearby to the Ark. I haven't seen Day of the Machines in a long time so I can't really remember the map.--Omnisvalidus 22:01, 16 January 2007 (UTC)

It's the only firm location we ever really got for the HQ. It often seemed to be 'near' many places... but that was always kept rather vague. It's hard to judge by driving distances because of the Autobot Road. That was a patch-b ut the Manga is suppsoed to be IN cartoon continuity. -Derik 01:08, 17 January 2007 (UTC)
