TF136: Combiners Pt. 2

Artificial Combiners: Following the loss of the Enigma, an arms race began to create artificial Combiners to supplement Devastator and Computron. The Decepticons held the upper-hand in this matter, with Shockwave’s reverse engineered Combination Core forming the nucleus of Project Black Mamba. But the Autobots would launch their own projects, including systems based off of Devisiun biology & MTO’s made for the purpose. But their true watershed would come with data stolen by a turncoat named Ambulon.

Bruticus (Inactive): The first (successful) result of Black Mamba, Bruticus was comprised of a unit of consummate soldiers, hoping the resulting Combiner would turn out to be the perfect soldier. What they got instead was a lumbering hulk of a ‘Con with more guns than his severely handicapped intelligence could count, little more than a weapon to be aimed. Nevertheless, Bruticus quickly became a threat to rival even Devastator, and the capture and/or elimination of his component ‘cons soon become top priority. A lucky break would result in the capture of Hardtop and the subsequent neutralization of Bruticus as a threat, but there are murmurs of enlisting Hardtop’s Spark brother Swindle as a replacement...

Members: Onslaught, Vortex, Blast Off, Brawl, Hardtop-Swindle

Abominus: Following the success of Bruticus, Shockwave’s attention would turn to the Terrorcons, several beastformers who had joined the Decepticon cause. Just as vicious as Bruticus, but just as unintelligent, Abominus would face off against Computron several times, with the Combiner eventually meeting its end with the death of several of its components.

Members: Hun-Gurr, Rippersnapper, Sinnertwin, Blot, Cutthroat.

Predaking: The combination of two of Shockwave’s experiments, with the component “Predacons” also being the result of reformatting beastformers with Predacon CNA. Though his components would be perfectly competent and loyal warriors, Predaking would prove too “individualistic”, a hunter who would disregard orders in favour of pursuing his own agenda.

Members: Razorclaw, Divebomb, Rampage, Headstrong, Tantrum

Monstructor (Deactivated): An ancient, deactivated Combiner dating back to the Age of Primes, Monstructor would only see one battle during the Great War, a corpse reanimated by the earliest experiments with Dark Energon and promptly embarking on a mindless rampage that required both Autobots and Decepticons to bring it down. The corpse would be captured by the Autobots, and used to further Nexus’ experiments.

Sixturbo (Deactivated): Originally the subject of the Autobots’ Devisiun Combiner project, Sixturbo would achieve a rare unity that would unfortunately result in their defection to the Autobots and shuttering of the Devisiun projects. Unfortunately for them, there defection would not spare them from death in battle.

Menasor: Victorion’s creation came as a severe blow to Decepticon morale, their superiority in the field of Combiners shattered once and for all. In order to counteract this, Shockwave turned to the Stunticons, Velocitronian road bandits with mild delusions of grandeur. These delusions would carry over to the resulting gestalt, a boastful warrior who, while nonetheless formidable, didn’t provide the counterbalance the Decepticons sorely needed.

Members: Motormaster(Torso), Deadend (LArm), Wildrider (LLeg), Drag Strip (RArm), Slashmark (RLeg)-Offroad, Heatseeker, Wildbreak, Breakneck, Breakdown (Formerly)

Megaempress: Still hoping for a counterpart to Victorion, Shockwave would turn to Galvatronia, a decorated and brutal ex-gladiator, alongside her all-femme “Elite Guard”. The resulting Combiner kept her components’ prowress, charisma, and sinister nature, more like an extension of Galvatronia than a true fusion

Members: Galvatronia, Trickdiamond, Flowspade, Lunaclub, Moonheart- Skyjack, Riotgear, Treadshock, Cyberwarp

Liokaiser: Commissioned behind Megatron’s back by Deathsaurus, Liokaiser was comprised of the warlord’s finest non-Predacon warriors. Although somewhat scatterbrained, Liokaiser would serve his leader with distinction until the death of his component Leozack would render him inert. The addition of Leozack’s spark-sister Lyzack would see the Combiner returned to the field.

Members: Leozack (KIA), Drillhorn, Guyhawk, Hellbat, Jallguar, Killbison, Lyzack.

Autobot Combiners

Defensor: Seeking to balance the scales of the war, “Project Nexus” the Autobots’ answer to Black Mamba, would look to Groove, an auxiliary member of Computron, using him and the reverse engineered corpses of Abominus and Monstructor as the basis for a new Combiner. The resulting gestalt would be comprised of Groove’s new unit, a search and rescue outfit known as the Protectobots. Though their individual units were either less than willing or less then capable in combat, Defensor themselves has proven an incredible defender and stalwart champion of the Autobot cause.

Members: Hot Spot(Torso), Rook, Blades, Streetwise, First Aid, Groove- Medix.

Superion: The second successful Autobot Combiner, helped along by Ambulon’s defection and reverse engineering Monstructor’s corpse. Her components are an oddly fractious bunch for a successful Combiner,  carrying both Neutral and Decepticon sympathies, but the gestalt herself is a dedicated and even somewhat cocky warrior, if socially aloof.

Members: Silverbolt, Slingshot, Air Raid, Fireflight, Skydive-Alpha Bravo, Airazor.

Divisiun Combiners: Most of the Autobots’ early successes with Combiners came through exploiting Devisiuns’ natural combination abilities. But in a surprising turn of events, these Devisiun Combiners proved less powerful than their Cybertronian counterparts, unable to equal Bruticus or Predaking, but they found their place nonetheless.

Subjects: Sixtrain (Deactivated, KIA), Sixliner, Sixbuilder, Sixwing (Deactivated), Sixturbo (Defected, KIA)

Landcross: The ultimate culmination of the “Six-Series” Landcross is capable of standing toe-to-toe with their Decepticon counterparts, even with their startling penchant for aggression.

Members: Wing, Waver, Dash, Tacker, Mach, Tackle

Computron V2: Following the recovery of the Enigma of Combination, Computron would find a new lease on life, with several of their former auxiliary bots forming the new gestalt.

Membership: Scattershot, Strafe, Javelin, Flareup, Backstreet, Drillbuster.

The Facebook group “Generation 2 Transformers” has posted several images showing artwork for several unreleased Generation 2 concepts. Some have been seen before like the Stunticons, Protectobots, and others, but a few are surprising, like Quickswitch, members of the Landcross team, and more. Click through for a full gallery.

The Facebook post is located here. At this point, we don’t know much about the origins of this artwork, but a few were previously shown in the Transformers Vault book.

I'm wheezing at y'all's replies 😂

@maladaptive-maniac : Unicron decided that Jazz got to have life privileges

@lirabuswavi : Bold of you to assume something G1 would ever be consistent in their animation/lore/timeline.

@whyareyouheremate : built different

Also thank you to the peeps who clarified wtf happened. Ednjxjeje

@landcross : oh they do show saving him, like he is on smth like a conveyor belt

@sroloc--elbisivni : he got vored by Unicron along with spike and bumblebee and then daniel gave unicron indigestion

Love that the first movie used vore as a major plot point /j. I need to draw a picture with Jazz and whoever else survived wearing "I survived being vored by Unicron" t-shirts.

Also? Was this when daniel said "Shit" followed by Ultra Magnus of all people saying "damn"?

It's really fucking wild how like... In the G1 transformers movie we see a bunch of characters die right? And I'm P sure Jazz was in one of the locations that were brutally destroyed and everyone inside killed right?

BUT THEN AT THE VERY END OF THE MOVIE I'M P SURE JAZZ IS JUST...THERE?!?!? CASUALLY mingled with other bots in the background?!

SIR I'M VERY GLAD YOU DIDNT DIE BUT how did you get here!?!

oh to be held tenderly by Galaxy Shuttle as he tended to my injuries 😔

[kirisakin]

@landcross In isolation she's not that bad... but then you compare her to Tracks. And then you compare Glyph to Bumblebee or Slipstream and Starscream and WHY DOES EVERY CHICK HAVE TINY HANDS AND HOURGLASS WAISTS.

Have I said before that the only reason people disproportionately point out the comedic gender dymorphism in Transformers Animated as opposed to IDW or Prime is because DJW literally didn't know how to draw buff women unless they were evil or one-shot characters.
