Night Beat would def figure out who the with was
Also Red Alert with the Corries would be such a good team up; you got the paranoid, anxiety ridden trauma of a mech with a whole bunch of traumatized, overworked, discredited clones. Imagine the stuff him and Fox could do
do you have any more thoughts on the Star Wars and MTMTE crossover?
Due to the fact that these are both my largest hyperfixations, ofc!
I feel like Tag and Bink with Swerve would get along like a house on fire, history would be forever changed the moments the trio began to interact. Rewind has quickly found a home in the temple archives, hanging out and trading data with Jocasta Nu, Riptide hanging out with Kit Fisto and the both of them having swimming competitions.
With the power of both Drift and Cyclonus the padawans lightsaber techniques have never been better, with Fortress Maximus watching over the creche the children have also never been safer!
Ratchet has planted himself in the halls of healing and is not leaving. There is no way these organics are healing people without half of them having no qualifications in the first place! Nightbeat is busy attempting to figure out the true nature of the force, maybe finding out a certain world between worlds?
Made more transformers OCs :)
Slight NSFW warning??
INTRODUCING RAVE AND NOVA
Like most of my settings, these two are from the IDW/MTMTE continuity. They are former decepticons who defected before the War was over (more info. will be disclosed later :D). Post War and they’re just trying to live a peaceful life, but that’s kind’ve hard when you ended up on the DJD’s list. Also, they are conjux ❤️
Individual Information
Rave:
pronouns he/him
worked in Communications before he defected
his age is equivalent to early 30s
he turns into a boombox (specifically the ION Audio Party Rocker Go HighPower Boombox Portable Speaker with Party Starter Lights Black iSP147)
he is 20 feet tall
he weighs 3,700 lbs
he will eat anything placed in front of him
he has pica, which is where one craves/chews substances with no nutritional value
despite his alt being a boombox, Rave is not that loud of a mech (he does have his moments)
also, despite being in Communications, he as social anxiety (he will persevere through it when the situation calls for it)
he took longer to convince to defecting from the ‘cons
^^despite this, he came up with the escape plan
he’s allergic to oil
dyslexic
the little spoon
^^but not the bottom *winky face*
fears ducks
he cooks like a white woman
Nova:
pronouns he/him
worked in SpecOps before defecting
his age is equivalent to early 30s
turns into a camera (specifically the Sony Alpha A6100)
he is 17 feet tall
he weighs 2,400 lbs
the more sensible of the two (he has his moments)
had to stop Rave from eating napkins once
the big spoon
^^NOT the top (another winky face)
also has social anxiety
^^also persevered through it when the situation required it
came up with the idea of defecting
he believed in the original cause of the decepticons, but as the War stretched on, he saw how they strayed from their original motivations and grew some major doubts
reads to Rave
fears needles
caught KOBD interfacing once
actually banned from the kitchen
cooks like a Victorian child discovering technology for the first time
More Information
the reason they defected was because they found out Nova was sparked
*in my AU, one does not get pregnant, rather when two (or more) mechs merge their sparks there is a 5% chance of getting sparked; mechs can also merge with the intent to create, and that raises the chance of a sparkling from 5% to 86%*
Rave initially wanted to name their child after Megatron, but Nova would not hear him out
^^they were then gonna name them Night Beat, only to discover that there was already a mech with that name
^^^they decided on the name Dead Beat, which they based on how they now viewed the current decepticon cause
Dead Beat is a femme
Rave and Nova are the best parents, although they do have dubious teaching skills
this little family does end up on the Lost Light
^^they had a really close call with the DJD which resulted in Rave getting badly injured
^^^once he was sure the DJD were no longer nearby Nova sent out a distress beacon, which was picked up by the Lost Light (who else lmao)
^^^^they were found and allowed aboard the ship; Rave was taken to the Medbay due to his injuries while Nova was taken to the brig out of precaution due to his intentions being unknown
^^^^^Nova had hidden Dead Beat under his armor when the ship initially touched down so no one knew there was a sparkling; when a member of the Lost Light’s high command came to check on their newest brig member, they were greeted with the sight of Nova having somehow equipped blankets guarding his kid, whom was asleep on his chassis
^^^^^^they were promptly taken to the Medbay where they got yelled at by Ratchet

New character? I think so.
This is just a stupid thing I created about my newest tf OC.
WHAT IF: Transformers Shattered Glass IDW x More than Meets the Eye/The Lost Light/The Scavengers IDW
Okay, since these kind of posts people seem to like, and I like making silly AUs, AND it's confusing to me why yall like them IMMA JUST MAKE ANOTHER ONE! XD Because it is FUNNY. SO!!!
Yall can read, SO YOU MAY BE WONDERING: Why? There's already concepts and shit about this! What's so DIFFERENT about this one? WELL TO ANSWER THAT I WILL SAY: All the other concepts (Which aren't bad by the way) all involved THE SAME CAST of characters. Rodimus, Ultra Magnus, etc. So HERE'S MINE.
(NOTE I will still be taking creative liberties to add and mix around somethings because yes)
------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Decepticons have won the war. It was hard, and lots of good bots were killed. But for the most part the Autobots have accepted the loss. The war was finally over after all, of course they were going to accept it. Of course, some Autobots don't want to accept defeat but for the most part peace has been achieved. Megatron uses the Matrix of Leadership to use the ancient wisdom inside to help lead Cybertron alongside Slicer and Slipstream.
Starscream decides to take a ship, the Found Night, to explore the galaxy like he always wanted, to learn about it many planets and bring home various Cybertronians that need help. He assembles a large crew to explore the galaxy with him.
Later, after some adventures, Megatron would ask Starscream to allow Optimus Prime to board the Found Night. During Starscream's adventures, Optimus Prime had been trialed. Even though Optimus had a change of heart nearing the end of the war and stopped Rodimus from rewriting all of reality, many Cybertronians believed he needed an actual sentence. So they held a trial. But Optimus enacted ancient Cybertronian tradition, stating only the Clerics of Cybertron could judge him. Starscream, while suspicious, allowed Optimus to board the ship. From there, even MORE shenanigans took place, among other things.
So here's a list of some of the main crew members! Starscream, Captain Galvatron, Second in Command Optimus Prime, Co-Captain Knockout, Chief Medical Officer Brawl, Security Misfire, Bartender Flamewar, Scout Tarn, more Security Grimlock, the Cyclonus Role (Kinda) Cyclonus, the Cyclonus Role (Kinda again XD) Tailgate, he's uh... still Tailgate, but more WHIRL like Pharma, the next Chief Medical Officer Role Necrobot, the Therapist Role
There's obviously more but here's the "main" enemies!
AJD (Autobot Justice Division): Ultra Magnus (Calls himself Alpha), Hot Spot (Calls himself Omega), Kup (Calls himself Superior), Star Saber (calls himself Supreme), and Air Raid (Greatness) Overlord Role: Fortress Maximus
And finally the SCAVENGERS (I'm not going to concern myself on the roles): Pipes, Tracks, Cosmos, Smokescreen Sixgun, and Nosecone.
More designs for my tf continuity! Nickel of Rivets Field and Firestar of Caminus edition. I'll try to add my thoughts and decisions about them at a later date bcuz my mind is like uhhh lagging
A gaggle of whirlybirds!
I'm trying to get back into drawing transformers again! I got a bit burnt out last year but I hope my brain will stay nice and moist
My mtmte voice headcanons^3^
I’m not the first person to say this, but mischaracterization of Bumblebee in the TFONE fandom is honestly kind of crazy.
The infantilization aspect of it is really problematic, because it treats a full-grown man like the “kid” of the group. Bumblebee’s been slotted into this role because he’s often depicted as playing a son-like role to Optimus, which I of course *love,* generally speaking, but that’s not the role they went with in this movie, and B is still getting slotted into this role.
But in TFONE, B is actually quite possibly older than Orion Pax and D-16. We don’t know, but he’s been in Sublevel 50 for so long, he very well could be, and there’s nothing at all suggesting he’s younger than them.
Unlike in other iterations, B isn’t an “apprentice” to Optimus, either. He’s been at his side since *before* the Autobots were founded, which, since the Autobots will no doubt continue for millions of years, establishes him as a senior Autobot, not the “new kid” role he usually plays, either.
Then there’s B’s personality. B is talkative and energetic and eager to make new friends. He’s the comic relief character, which casts him in a less serious tone, but certainly not that he’s a kid. Orion doesn’t play a mentoring role to him throughout the movie, nor do any of them try to manage or babysit him. He’s an equal part of the group, even if he feels less “mature” because of his talkative personality.
B can also be read as neurodivergent, which makes the infantilisation of him in the fandom more problematic, since it treats hyperactivity and other traits found in neurodivergent *adults* as “kid” traits.
Like, why is B interpreted as the kid of the dynamic? He’s the weird uncle they found in the basement, obviously.
Not to mention, B’s primary trait as the movie goes on is his violent tendencies. Based on the fandom, you’d guess he was the most innocent lil guy, when in the movie, he actively takes joy in creating chaos and going on violent outbursts.
While his violence is made out to be a joke in the movie, in a potential sequel I would *love* to see it taken seriously as a character flaw. B is unpredictable and chaotic, and this could make him hard to work with in the Autobot cause.
B’s violent tendencies are genuinely concerning; the amount of joy he gets from slicing drones in half and holding the security team at knife point is uncharacteristic of your usual Autobot hero, and I wish people would talk about that aspect of his character instead of downplaying it when he gets turned into a lil baby in the fandom.
It reminds me of the infantilization of Tailgate in the MTMTE fandom. He’s treated like a lil baby because he’s small and emotional. This sucks because
1) I’m short and I *hate* seeing physically small characters babified to an extent I know they never would be if they were the same height as the rest of the cast around them
2) it treats being emotionally vulnerable as “child-like,” when MTMTE literally makes a point about the fact that Tailgate is one of the only people who can healthily process his feelings, since he doesn’t have war PTSD, and crying and having other big shows of emotion aren’t childlike, it’s healthy.
3) not to mention that Tailgate was a victim of emotional manipulation. Infantilizing him treats him like he was “gullible” for being tricked when Getaway was literally painstakingly planning a longterm relationship to groom him. Don’t infantilize victims, it’s treats it was their fault for being manipulated and not the abuser… you know, manipulating them.
Tailgate also is powerful/violent like Bumblebee, and this similarity gets downplayed. I haven’t been in as much of the MTMTE fandom (I’m still reading Lost Light, and I’m trying to avoid spoilers) but I have seen the Tailgate infantilization to an extent, and the B infantilization is literally the only way I ever see B being treated by the fandom.
STOP TREATING GROWN MEN LIKE KIDS PLEEASSSEEE
I LOVE THEMMMM

A really ugly Rodimus. (I didn’t exactly had a good reference ok?)
After the drugs stops working, rodimus in the med bay getting a check up:
Ratchet:*looking at rodimus's processor* I'm not sure what chousd rodimus to act so strangely.
Ultra Magnus: I see, hopefully we could figure it out.
Rodimus: you know, I actually really enjoyed those last few hours. My processor wasn't going like 100 mph for once and I could actually focus on my work without getting distracted every two seconds.
Ratchet, Ultra Magnus, Megatron and everybot else in the med bay: *Relishing that rodimus as the cybertronian equivalent of ADHD and none of them knew, including him* This explains so much and yet so little at the same time. Oh primus we're so stupid for not relishing.
Rodimus:*confused* are y'all ok? Did I miss something?
Drift: don't worry about it rodi. But just out of curiosity, do you remember who gave you the energon before you started filling weird?
Rodimus: yeah, it was getaway. Said he made it himself as a gift.
Drift and everybot else:*Relishing what getaway was trying to do* `I'm going to kill getaway`
I need either Brainstorm or Perceptor or literally ANYBOT on the Lost light to somehow make the cybertronian equivalent of those ADHD meds that make your emotions disappear (you know the type, every Neurodivergent person who takes meds had them), And somehow those meds/drags get into rodimus's energon.
I just want the ENTIRE SHIP in chaos cause rodimus is ACTUALLY WORKING! (What?).
Like, Megatron and ultra Magnus having an existential crisis.
Drift being concerned for his emica (you write it like that?) cause he doesn't wanna race.
Ratchet and all the medics on the ship trying to get rodi into the med bay to give him a check up.
All of the other bots being 100% SURE that rodimus is possessed or got replaced.
And at the same time that the entire crew is panicking, Rodimus is enjoying having his processor go about 950 MPH for the first time in his life. (He is able to do his work without getting distracted or bored after five minutes).
The crew notices rodimus's lack of emotions, rodimus himself does not.

I made some transformers memes (they are mostly MTMTE and me shitting on Optimus)
I know close to nothing about MTMTE or the idw comics. But that will not stop me from making memes based on what I do know about it
My blorbos in no particular order.
I want to put them all in a jar and shake them up like a snow globe. (Affectionate) 💖
Too many feelings in one page. First Nautica’s reaction to what will come next, then the power behind Meg’s empathy towards Rewind, giving him the chance to step back if he does not feel OK with the idea of stopping to exist, then Rewind’s realization that the world without Chromedome is futile, and finally, Meg’s giving him the chance to go with a final happy thought... Dam!
I am a fan and always will be.
As a kid G1 was my treat after school, TF Victory on weekends and Beast Wars whenever I had access to HBO. I love what they have made with the franchise now that i’m an adult ( Except Bayformers). Let’s begin with TF Prime, for me the perfect balance between maturity and content for kid’s, a non linear narrative that gets you invested since episode one. Then we have the Jewel that redefined TF for me, and that is the masterpiece that IDW gave us, in all of its phases. The story introduction is beautiful, raw and realistic (You should’ve learned from it Bay) . Phase Two gives us the other face of war and the ambiguity of heroes and villains, making the conflict the real antagonist of this war (that had lasted more than a millennia). Finally Phase 3 and till now my favorite part of the story, the end of the war and what happened before it. This one has the best element, the “human” (or Cybertronian lol) factor, the magic of this part of the story lays in the personality and interaction between the characters, without removing the action and political drama; but again, the magic is in how much you will care for the characters, being presented in way I would never imagined before ( I’m looking at you Ultra Magnus) . Overall Transformers is my favorite franchise, and im loving what they are doing with it. I’m sad to know IDW is warping this jewel up, but I’m very happy with what they are doing with the new comers such as Cyberverse and Bumblebee, and hopefully others to come. I will close saying that the best gift given to me is the Ideal that “ Freedom is the right of all sentient beings” and once we understand that, the world may unite “Till we all are one”.
I always will be.
The whole gang
In the need of sharing my Autobots lol
That moment when you gather to wreck and rule.
Announcing my new series of entry-level YouTube videos to help explain complicated concepts and lore to new Transformers fans, TRANSFORMERS: THE BASICS! The first four episodes will drop weekly in June, every Saturday, and will cover Continuity, Characters, Biology, and more!
Oh yes, Transformers Animated is a gem among the others TF shows and Steven Universe is surely more than meets the eyes.... for a shameless plagio.
A quality cartoon series about inorganic, long-lived, humanoid aliens who learn to call Earth home as they protect humanity from others of their own kind and act as parental mentors to a half-human, half-alien child who is learning to wield their powers:
