Most ridicules candidate for leadership of Autobots/Decepticons

Post by Aardvark »

Kerr-azzzy 2007 Edit : Yes I know that should say "ridiculous " -- I was young and stupid... mostly stupid. Look elsewhere in this early Aardvark thread for even more terrible typing. It's shocking. :eek:

Personally I would have to suggest Wing Thing as the worst possible candidate for the Decepticons. But think how envious Soundwave would be. For the Autobots it's obviously Arcee. A female transformer that transformers into a car... that's an accident waiting to happen...Arcee the 'Cons are attacking-"I'm too busy parallel parking"

Before anyone claims the Arcee thing is sexist, I'd like to remind everyone that Arcee, when left in a position of responsibility at Autobot City in 2008, got distracted by a hill and let everyone get killed.

I hope that was some sort of joke in relation to ratbat... he did no better but not especially worse then most leaders in the comic, its hard for a cassette to combat a gigantic scorpian

Raindance for Autobots mainly because he cant really do anything movement wise in the mid range . He's either flying or stationary.

Blurr, a leader with a caffeine addiction can't be good for the Autobots.

Autobots - Sky Lynx
Decepticons - Reflector

Joke. Noun. A thing said or done to cause laughter. Something not in earnest or ridiculous.

Wheelie is my nomination for most ridiculous candidate for Decepticon leader.

Surely it'd be Optimus Prime for the Cons, and Shockwave* for the Autobots?


* We have established elsewhere that Megatron is already an Autobot.

Almost everyone killed. Blaster survived, I'm guessing because one od his lesser tapes bore the brunt of that blast to his chest...

Wheelie would be an ideal candidate to lead a guerilla war action on behalf of the Autobots, due to his survivalist experience hiding and fighting superior numbers on Quintesson!

Huffer would, in my opinion, be totally hopeless in a leadership role and would probably order a surrender en masse just so he could get his old house back on Cybertron.

Erm and that cassette that was a stegosaur would be rubbish for the Decepticons, because he had really short legs.

But Ratbat was a Great leader despite having no legs.

And I'd certainly vote for Deep Roy as President of Earth...

Yes but, by the mystical power of flight he could facilitate his leadership role fairly speedily, where as that stegosaur would have taken ages to get anywhere. Unless of course a bigger bot threw him where he wanted to go.

Actually now I think of it, why the hell does Ratbat flap his wings in TFTM? Surely as a Decepticon he has the power of flight regardless of flappage, it's not to authenticate his disguise because he's a gigantic robot bat.

I loved him though.

Wait he's purple, has nail varnish does this mean that Ratbat was *gasp* either a big girl and/or a punk ?

Just what do all those cassettes get up to in there, do they have some kind of lounge area in Soundwave's chest? A pool table perhaps, a basket for Ravage, a king sized bed for a Frenzy/Rumble love in?

Ratbat is niether a girl nor a punk, he's merely comfortable enough with his own hetrosexuality to not feel insecure about make up.

They used to do lots of roleplay, Rumble would pretend to be Frenzy and Frenzy would pretend to be Rumble. Thery got a kick out of it and never realised the confusion it would cause...


Incidently, how does Soundey fit all this in his chest? Is it a Tardis?

Subspace, Shockwave and size shifting capabilities make Soundwave the transformer equivalent of a two bedroomed semi in Woverhampton.

No the wardrobe is a rudimentary space bridge prototype, made by a balsa wood Wheeljack in his carpentry studio. Of course he was secretly working for the Nazis back then and the wardrobe was intended to violate Buckingham Palace rather than Narnia.
