Masquerade... wha....?

Post by Cliffjumper »

Okay, okay, okay... I can just about buy that the "camoflague paint" makes the Autobots look like their Stunticon counterparts, what with them all being bipedal and what have you... and I can sort-of buy the alt modes being identical, as the animators always made all the cars look like pieces of crap anyway [c'mon, how many times did Tracks look like a Stingray?], but how in the name of Mary off Suicide Girls do their transformation sequences physically change?

The camo-spray actually projected a hologram around each of the Autobots to make them appear to have completely different transformations?

Yeah...that's all I got.

Far as I can tell, it's a mix of Windcharger and holograms.

What I want to know is what they really looked like when they formed Menasor. Were they in like a human pyramid or something?

I think it must be because Skywarp became Cyclonus.

Very.

That's why script-writers usually ignored him completely.

Y'know, now that I think of it, can you imagine this guy with the Matrix? A TF with the power level of Magneto, the war would be over in a day or two...

Of course it is! The 'Bots kept the real Stunticons inside subspace pockets, and whenever they needed to transform, they simply pulled the somewhat-miffed Stunticons to transform, then the 'Bots hid behind them while they transform!

I HAVE CRACKED THE CODE!
