Tfp Soundwave is highly intriguing to me...
But especially for the datacables. Now i could have other words to say about them but we're going to look at them in a different light. Such as where did he get them? Has he always had them? Are there more mecha out there that have them, or is it just him? How do they work, as from what i can see they're much softer than the rest of Soundwave's frame? They functionally act like a muscular hydrostat (which is fascinating, as I'm assuming energon replaces the water here and there's the whole muscle aspect), and they have rings of biolights placed in a regular order. The tips both have sharp grasping parts, and delicate little feelers for more dexterity. I'm going to remind us again I am focusing on the science here, impure thoughts begone. I don't think we see any other mecha with these in tfp. Mayyybe RID15, but I know i know RID15 is a boat in itself. We actually don't see this in any Soundwaves other than aligned, which sounds right.
I've seen people compare them to Sparkeaters, but I'd also compare them to Quintessons? Which i mean hey tfp Quintessons is a whole bucket of worms but! Soundwave 100% dealt with the Quintessons, could that be where he got the datacables? ddhfhfj wouldn't be the first time we see cybergrafting. If he was created with them, however, now that gives us questions. There are... so many questions here
#transformers#tfp soundwave#maccadam#thinking#Soundwaves had a bulkier frame before the war_ yes. but did he have the datacables then?#because if not then where the hell did he get them#are there other mecha with them??????#do i need to sift through rid for a frame of reference for alternative root mode references again

This has been living rent free in my head since I read it
From @keferon 's mecha au and @spector-author 's writing (this post! or on AO3)
(I think I'm supposed to tag you both? If not let me know and I'll remove it 👍)
#tf mecha universe#vortex#first aid#my art#dude this AU has been eating my brain#and I have no idea who these two are#I started getting into TF like a month or two ago and I've never heard of these two before but I am obsessed with their storyline now#and the rest of them too#I just haven't had many coherent thoughts (other than this one)#the colors look so different on my phone but we're ignoring that

this has been a roller coaster of a design journey but finally I can present you: class swap artificer!adaine and rogue!fabian
#dimension 20#fantasy high#fhfy#fhsy#fhjy#fabian seacaster#adaine abernant#fh class quangle#goodbye... goodbye hoodie kid adaine..... we have mecha pilot/power armor adaine instead#I couldnt really land how she'd get a hoodie reliably in freshman year given the abernants pattern of confiscating shit from her#so I kinda switched gear and dug a bit into a like sukeban aesthetics instead. and since shes with the AV club I like the idea of#like a radio coord thing for her. hence the suspenders#I fully admit the sukeban thing is influenced by the hacker woman in ghostwire tokyo who I have a small crush on#she's SO cool. too bad about a number of things with that game#the jacket of useful things is a racer jacket this time bc Im predictable like that#her ensemble in junior year is her tank top + overall it might not be clear enough in the pic...#just had the thought ''man I should do turnarounds for all of them'' and immediately had to slap myself out of it#anyways uh! fabian I have inflicted with my favourite thing to do to characters who like to stealth or fly under the radar#which is Bright Extremely Noticeable Jacket That Hides Your Hands#fabian's ghost motif has led me to the famous horror movie trope of silhouette with iconic jacket from afar#(see Sinister and Alice Sweet Alice)#and I love to imagine him hanging the coat up somewhere and opponents aiming there instead of at him#but also the raincoat is specifically modeled after the yellow fisherman's raincoat#and. that led to. me thinking abt fabian pulling riz up at that cliff with a net instead of the battle sheet lmao#so his junior year design is fully Fishing. which is so fucking funny it has obliterated all other possibilities from my brain#ranger flavour: captain ahab#I still debate making him carry around an actual fishing rod tbh. right now Im giving him a rifle grappling hook thing#gods. I just think High School Classmate Suddenly Gets Way Too Into Fishing is the funniest fucking thing that can happen#thank you fabian. thank you for giving me this. love you buddy#still blanking on kristen but! throughout this whole storm here I've realised I just need to fuck around

Uhhhhgggg @keferon your AUs plague meee, now I have Thundercracker and Marissa Faireborn in the mecha AU on my brain
Like, it makes sense? Kind of? Classic romcom opening: She's a hard-boiled, hard ass military operative doing her part in trying to defend her home from an alien threat. He's a transforming robot/fighter jet who deserted his post because he's grown disillusioned with the war.
He runs into/seeks out the organization who do the mech stuff (I don't know if they have a name or not), begs for them to hide him. they say "sure, i guess, but we get to research you". he says sure and becomes a government secret under the careful watch of Marissa and her team. Hijinks ensue.
So, Marissa's not too trustworthy of this giant fucking thing in the base. Obviously. She knows about about the Cybertronian alliance thing the military has with these guys, and that's fine. It's not her place to ask questions. BUT this guy is very obviously a part of the purple faction, which the guys from the red faction are fighting against. She doesn't care but this kinda seems like a breach in trust for their alliance for letting Thundercracker in the base. And what if he's a spy or some shit? So she's keeping an eye on him.
Meanwhile, Thundercracker's watching garbage reality tv while letting researcher poke around in his circuitry (like when your getting your teeth done for more than an hour at the dentist) and he loves it. He starts writing garbage screen plays. Someone brings their dog to work--best creature he's ever seen. He loves being a government secret! He has so much free time now!
He and Marissa talk sometimes too, and they start bonding (Romantic or Platonic, doesn't matter it's still very meaningful). She tells him about her time as a pilot before she got promoted to chain on command, he tells her tiny bits about his life that he's comfortable with. Marissa comes to uncomfortable realization that they're actually becoming friends, and what that means considering what the organization probably wants from Thundercracker.
So, when the research team and the higher ups start wanting to dig a little deeper and get some more useful intel on Thundercracker for making their own mechs a bit more formidable, Marissa suggests something else: integrating him into the pilot program. They were already doing something similar with Jazz and Prowl, why not do it again? (I might be mixing up information but just go with it)
Thundercracker is of course, not too thrilled with the prospect of going back into active duty when he 1. actively hiding from the Decepticons and 2. getting used to not being in combat anymore, but Marissa explains that this is probably the best case scenarios since the organization's research on him would get pretty non-consensual pretty quickly. So he's like "fine then, who's my pilot going to be?" and Marissa's all like "me, of course. I don't trust any of these people to be inside you" and he's like "Huh, okay, second question; how is this pilot program going to work?"
Bunch of fidangling later, they figure it out (i don't know how but whatever, figure it out in post (maybe i'll actually write something about them who knows)). It's really weird for both parties involved (Marissa: never piloted something that was alive before, Thundercracker: never had something organic inside him), but they deal with it--fighting Quintissons and aliens and maybe the odd decepticon. Classic mecha stuff.
They've got it all! Comedy! Drama! Military Corruption! Philosophical Conundrums! Dogs! Bad TV! Friendship! Love??? Who knows!! I've got more about them in my brain that's just soup rn but they make me go
#transformers#maccadam#tf mecha universe#thundercracker#marissa faireborn#I just like them so much#They'er so#*gestures vaguely*#y'know???#Two people who trust each other implicitly and understand the other#due to being in situations they had no control over that made them intensely miserable#but at least they have each other now

My dogs my beloved dogs!! The first line of beastial spirit vine soldiers from my LoK AU. Created by Baatar when during experimentation, he discovered the spirit energy after being condensed causes the vines to react strangely to machinery and processed material. Turning the inorganic to organic.
These soldiers are comprised of spirit vines that have mutated in reaction to the condensed activated spirit energy and adhered themselves to the suits. Similar to "mimics" in a way, they can conceal their mouths fully so they're indistinguishable from human soldiers, though very astute earthbenders may notice they neither breathe nor have a heartbeat.
#LoK#Legend of Korra#LoK AU: Sovereign Guard#Neon Ocean Art#[ *pointing* looookk my puppies!#they are so 'get your fuckin dog bitch. it dont bite. yes it do' coded you know???#I've had these sketches for nearly 3 years omfg that is how long I've been wanting to talk about them#and this is only series 1 there are other variants including the mecha suits#There is so much more going on with them as well#they aren't sentient they cant think at all#in essence they are funny little plant dudes hehehe#only Baatar and Kuvira know about them and they're hidden throughout their forces#of course they can't do any bending either but that doesn't mean they aren't capable of holding their own#any time you see an immediate security detail around Baatar specifically you can guarantee it's mostly comprised of these#they start out rather simplistic where they just take orders and not much else#but over time they start slowly mutating on their own such as becoming more prone to reacting to Baatar's emotions without him realizing#or taking commands he hasn't said yet#they're also the perfect disposal service for things you want gone and not found#they'll eat anything ]

I had another hilarious Transformers dream where a team was gathered of several random (red) mecha in order to save the world or something and someone else pointed out one of them wasn't even an official transformer— one of them was an off-brand toy
#dream#dreams#transformers#maccadam#unnamed characters#i think? the team members included: Optimus_ Sideswipe_ Knockout_ and Terrorsaur at the *LEAST*#there were several other unnamed mecha too#they were all either red or had red on them somewhere

Being both a Transformers fan and other mecha media fan is like. So tiring lmao. The discourse about "Transformers ≠ Mecha" on Twitter is just painfully headache inducing.
Transformers is Mecha. Super Robot genre, to be exact. It falls under the same category as the Brave/Yuusha series of sentient robots. And no. Not all Braves were human-made. In the same way, in some canon, Cybertronian were created, not born.
Take Death Drives from Bravern, for example. They are fully sentient, they do not require a pilot, they are an alien lifeforms that evolved over millions of years AND have an after life. They are still considered Mecha because they are mechanical life forms.
Mecha as a genre is very important and very influential. Transformers being considered a mecha series is not a bad thing. It can be alongside other mecha series as the inspirations for many things yet to come. And that is a beautiful thing.
#mecha as a genre is broader than you think with many sub-genre brancing out.#sorry for the semi rant but i tried to be positive at the end lmao#also dismissing J-decker as an example because they were built by humans defeat the whole narrative of the show.#the whole anime was about them provong themselves not to be just machines! they gained a heart and soul !#they are afraid of death as much as any cybertronian would. They are as living as any other beings!#i might get jump by this but ah cant we just accept it and get along? over here in asia we all agree it's mecha

Honestly? Pinball Mire and Mad Mall are my least favorite levels I think. Mad Mall I cannot make heads or tails of for the life of me, so that's maybe just a me thing. And Pinball Mire isn't BAD, but it just doesn't have a ton that really stands out to me. The pinball segments COULD be cool but they're just kind of annoying instead 😔
#hot off the burner#factory is semi mid but it has mecha satan so it owns actually#all the others are pretty good#I'm at work for the next few hours so I probably won't see any comments/asks about this but feel free to send them and I'll look later :)#maybe I'll post my ranks of all the levels at some point#antonblast spoilers

some pics of my first gunpla and most perfect one together again
Cali(barn) still supporting Aerial cause her messed up feet barely hold her (the connections got loose after a posing session) and also cause I like the sibling energy I get from their joint pose.
#gunpla#mara mecha posting#i have another g-witch kit coming this week and i missed them#they do have a certain look i think i prefer from the other ones i've build (not that i don't like the other lines of kits i tried)#ft. a passed out mini-meli cause she shares my tiredness but has no bills and no flesh-body to cover#what my brain (and i. me. the mara.) is trying to say is i feel very much like the passed out mini-meli but nooooo#i gotta fuel this flesh for some reason before i pass out#✌
