Super Mode
A Super Mode is an auxiliary transformation some Cybertronians possess that is used sparingly, perhaps due to a higher energy consumption. This transformation often involves combining with unused portions of their alternate mode and bringing weapons systems normally concealed online. This form is often a variation on the robot mode, but there are many who possess vehicular or other Super Modes. In some continuities it is referred to as a Brute Mode, Hyper Mode or Ultra Mode. A robot-mode super mode is, amazingly enough, often called a Super Robot.
Fiction
Cybertron
In Transformers Cybertron, Optimus Prime transforms into Super Mode. His trailer goes onto his back while two leg pieces connect to the blue part of his legs and his Mouth plate comes over his face. Optimus normally goes into Super Mode when fighting in battle against Megatron. He never went back into Super Mode in the final two episodes due to the fact of losing his right wing and his Mouthplate.
