#It's so contradictory that it's aesthically offensive

[artificial-absinthe]

the thing with the t Rex will always annoy me because it makes no sense at all, it contradicts the tfp lore and books lore. It was stated several times one couldn't just turn into whatever in a whim,that was the while point of the war (being restricted to an alt mode that restricted in turn to a function). And,what about the dinobots?

Subjected to unwilling surgery/torture to be dinosaurs. Oh no,that doesn't matter because "funny"

That's why I believe that the concept of "Alligned continuity " has been misunderstood. Or should be. It makes more sense if it is considered that it's components share some lore and some events, but not exactly as happening in the same universe. If they are different realities, and different bots. That makes better sense.

Things that canonically exist in the same world as transformers prime because they also exist in rescue bots:

-fairies

-ghosts

-time travel

-still-living dinosaurs

-optimus's third mode, the fucking t-rex

-a machine that cheats death and reverses the aging process

-skyrim, if blades making the arrow to the knee joke is to be taken at face value.

-mass displacement tech the way the fandom's been portraying it for ages

-the exact same altmode-locking paralytic virus from beast machines

-full-on mind control, effective on both humans and bots

-lycanthropy inducing fake meat

-a hal-9000-esque rogue AI intent on turning the world comatose to keep humanity maximally safe

-freaky Friday mind swapping

-time loops

-machine that forces you to sing in full musical numbers

-Allspark day, which is basically cybertronian new years day

We need to start subjecting the prime bots to the weirdass facets of their world.
