Reformatting

In either the anime or manga, is there a particular in-universe reasoning given for why the Cybertrons on Gaea had to reformat themselves into organic modes upon arrival, but those Destrons with vehicle modes (like Megastorm) didn't have to bother (initially, at least)? --Nerroth 03:21, 16 March 2010 (EDT)

Not as such. Gaea is mentioned as having an atmosphere that will corrode the Maximals' bodies, so they take protective beast modes a la the original BW cartoon, but I can't recall any reason for the Predacons evading the effect. - Chris McFeely 07:14, 16 March 2010 (EDT)

It is somewhat surprising to see such a discrepancy - unless the Predacons had some other kind of protection worked into their systems, or something. (Ah, a good excuse to set an IDW story on Gaea...) --Nerroth 18:03, 16 March 2010 (EDT)
