Maccadam
From MediaWiki
| This article is about the Transformer bartender from many continuities. For the human general from Transformers Animated, see General Macadam. |
- Maccadam is a bar owner on Cybertron in nearly every continuity family.
Maccadam is the manager of Maccadam's Old Oil House. Maccadam is largely unseen by the populace of Cybertron, and he is rumoured to be one of the thirteen original Transformers by its drunken patrons. (His bar serves "exceptionally pure oil," after all.) He has strict in-house rules against fighting within its confines.
Some confuse the bar's various bartenders for Maccadam himself.
Notes
- Maccadam's Old Oil House has been shown to exist within multiple Generation 1 continuities, the Unicron Trilogy continuities, the Movie continuity, the Transformers Animated cartoon continuity and Transformers: Exodus. Logically, this means Maccadam exists within all those universes, but he has yet to show up personally in any of them - until Retribution, where he is discovered as the piano player in the bar, and an Autobot sympathizer.
- In the Dreamwave Generation One continuity, Maccadam's Old Oil House was suggested to exist out of the normal space and time continuum. This was shortly after semi-established to be true in "Prime Spark", which posed the bar as some sort of multiversal meeting place. All this further pushes the theory that its owner Maccadam is one of the thirteen original Transformers and the same being across continuities. However, nothing definitive has been revealed about the matter, and Hasbro effectively ignored him when establishing the Aligned version of the 13. Whether this actually affects Maccadam or not is unknown.
- When we see the exterior of the IDW continuity Maccadam's New Oil House in "Shadowplay, Part 1: Post Hoc", on the sign there is an image of a 'bot with facial hair, wearing a hat, shirt and tie. Could this be our first glimpse of the elusive Maccadam?
