seeing people say that the decepticons feel hollow in tfp is crazy to me because its the first media ive seen that has made me care about any of them. (besides starscream)
like yeah they arent the most emotional and they snark at each other a lot but they have separate clear personalities and motivations. they just dont shout them the way that the autobots do which like...duh
but knockout is the best example of this as he wants to get back at silas for breakdown even if he then experiments on his body later. i mean even in that episode (tfp:bh ep 8) he says that he imagines breakdown would be fine with it because it hurts silas so he's clearly thinking about him. and him working with starscream-he literally says to him that he always did appreciate him (heavy paraphrasing i dont quite remember exact wording for either of those examples(underutilized duo for sure))
in comparison tfes is very...different. in a way that grates on me so i stopped at ep 10. mostly bc im not a child, but in the way they wanted to show the decepticons as people. which feels like they sanded down the edges of all these characters and they feel like completely different people. and i know its a kids show but i really don't like it. and i find them being in a truce weird. i dont like seeing megatron working happily with optimus, even if he has complaints about how ghost works and whatever. but thats more personal than real criticism and im just yapping now.
anyway-ratchet, starscream, and knockout supremacy
#i should be writing#but my focus is shot#tfp#transformers prime#also not about this at all#but i was always whatever about size difference#and then i started paying attention to tf#and boy does the size difference go crazy#theyre all so big#but then some of them are BIG#like bumblee next to anyone im always like jesus#or actually smokescreen#next to ultra magnus#goddamn#and ofc#starscream and megatron

MORE TITAN AU!!! of the cityspeaker rodimus variety <3
extra context for these:
this is inspired by the concept of the city/internals of Megatron changing colour in response to heat- something Rodimus has plenty of! (as mentioned in asks here and here)
in this AU Megatron rarely speaks to/acknowledges his cityspeakers, so Rodimus is trying to get a rise out of him the entire time :]
majority of the dialogue is by @callsign-relic whos blog this au lives on! the first section of dialogue is from one of the first titan au posts :]
check out the #titan au tag over on Relic's blog for more Thoughts about this au and its many offshoots!!
#my art#velwy.png#titan au#transformers#macaddam#rodimus#megatron#transformers idw#transformers au#i added the doodles at the beginning because i was like. this is just rodimus talking to the Setting#also those asks made me think of the city side of things in the rodimus version of the au being Dark and Cold#not dilapidated like the ultra mags ver. but just... empty#frigid and shadowed...#next up. ultra magnus and op flavours of the au because im also unwell over those.#also if u saw my tags in the last titan au art post. this is not the comic page i had thskdhdj tjats for ultra magnus <3#i gotta post that soon too though because otherwise my brain will decide its not good enough and then ill wanna redraw it#ive already added Too Many Links but the doodle is ALSO inspired by some asks in the tagm

Ultra Magnus's BIG TWO-PAGE entrance immediately being followed up by him just seeing Shockwave and immediately retreating is so fucked up. Like HERE HE IS, the BIG GUY READY TO FIGHT and he's intimidating as SHIT, but all Shockwave had to do was stand there and allow the memories to wash over Ultra Magnus and it disarmed him immediately. Whatever Shockwave did to him over all those centuries was so unbelievably fucked in the head, Magnus can't even look at him without freaking out and running away

Y'all really like the Smokes and Magnus posts!
So obviously you're getting more!!
Due to Smokescreen coming into the picture later than in canon, the last key is kinda... Lost, to both factions. No one know who this guy in the last set of encryptions is. All they know is that this guy is very important and likely knows the location of the last omega key (how on earth does the rest of the omega key/lock plotline go if smokescreen isn't there?? surprisingly close to canon, but i'm still working out all the kinks)
Arcee and Jack get to meet Ultra Magnus, who Arcee knows and respects, and tumbling out behind him is- That's the guy from the omega key stuff!
Magnus is very confused as to how everybody seems to know his little buddy when his little buddy knows exactly none of them personally.
So- Breakdown and the phase shifter are kinda with Optimus at this point in time (no, breakdown does not get to steal the possible next prime position from smokescreen) But!! When Breakdown and Optimus later rejoin the Autobots, Smokescreen will get his preferred relic of choice. (in the meantime, magnus has a whole arsenal he can use as he pleases)
Oh, and, apparently, Wheeljack likes none of the new Autobots. The first is Breakdown, for very obvious reasons, the next are Magnus and Smokey. Ultra Magnus because he already hates him in canon and Smokescreen because Smokescreen is clearly very close to Magnus and respects him. They're besties! These new guys are not fun in his opinion. And he likes reminding all of them about this. (well, he enjoys reminding magus and bd. with smokes, well- smokes will look like a kicked puppy if someone is too mean to him. instead, jackie teaches the kid to gamble. it doesn't end well)
Does Breakdown want to punch Wheeljack? Kind of. Very much so. But he's an Autobot now and besides, some of Wheeljack's ire is deserved, they were enemies for a long time after all.
#next time i talk about this#it's gonna be the praxian/iaconi stuff i SWEAR#though i suppose that is general continuity angst rather than for this in particular#but thousands of years on a ship with one other person does reveal a lot about one's self#the current key count for everyone by the time darkmount nv takes place is as follows#three with the decepticons#starscream having stolen the autobot's one and having one of his own#buying his place back with the knowledge of what they do#and one inside smokescreen#it was one for each of them until the red energon incident#of course#none of them can actually do anything without the last key#i'm sure knockout's working overtime so events can still be relatively on time with canon#i'm also debating if kobd fight each other#i say fight#i mean “fight”#each other after bd switches sides#it's more likely to happen than not#it also gives ko more reason to switch sides at the end of the series#anyway#i'm gonna end it here#tfp smokescreen#tfp ultra magnus#tfp wheeljack#tfp breakdown#i gotta name this thing so i can tag it for myself....

As a show of good faith toward the remaining Decepticons at the beginning of a new, united Cybertron, newly appointed Senators Bumblebee and Soundwave allowed Shatter and Dropkick to enlist into Autobot City's Defense Team.
These two turned out to be... not the best choices.
The city may have fallen to Insurgent Decepticon occupation had it not been for young recruits Hot Rod and Arcee's accidental interception of Shatter's communication with the fugitive Starscream.
To replace the errant Defense Team members, Springer and Blurr were reassigned from Iacon to Autobot City in their stead.
#my art#tf reconstruction#transformers#bumblebee movie#tf shatter#tf dropkick#maccadam#transformers au#semi-introduction to my idea for antagonists in tf:r - specifically being movie villains slotted into my au#bc if the main crux of the main reconstruction story in autobot city is about hot rod and her rise to becoming rodimus prime#which comes from the First movie - why not loosely adapt other movies too??#ive got ideas for most of them already - kinda jumping back and forth between the modern day story and my pre-war ''downfall'' story#which gives my brain a break from thinking about one to think about another#anyway - i imagine the first ''episode'' of tf:r would be like. hot rod shows up in autobot city on her first day > meets the team#> gets assigned arcee as her partner > arcee hates it > they over hear shatter talking to someone they don't recognise because rod's nosey#> huh that's weird > they intercept it next time by accident > its a communication to starscream about the city's defenses#> they take it to ultra magnus but they break the pad on the way because they were arguing about it#> ''hot rod i know you're new here. and you're intrigued about the war and everything. but we shouldn't be suspicious of everyone wearing a#purple badge. give them a chance.'' > arcee drops it bc she doesn't wanna start trouble + ''magnus will handle it. he always does somehow.'#> rod does not drop it and makes blaster monitor shatter's messages for anything unusual > blaster indulges her bc he's endeared to her#> he does end up intercepting an encrypted message > rod immediately acts and chases after shatter and dropkick on an outside-city mission#> arcee goes after her to stop her from fucking up really bad > blaster unencrypts the message. it's a rendezvous point to start an invasio#> magnus kup blaster and perceptor all head out to help the two young'uns before they get in over their heads#> rod and arcee meet and fight starscream and barely make it out by the skin of the teeth thanks to the more experienced autobots arrival#> starscream shatter dropkick and whoever else is there are driven off#> day is saved - magnus commends rod's gut instincts but rod goes back to what magnus said about not trusting bots with purple badges#> she was right this time but its an exception not a rule and most other decepticons in the city want to live in peace#> magnus also commends that attitude and the team head back > starscream starts plotting his Next Big Plan#''post credits'' scene of magnus putting the request in for springer and blurr + robot dinosaur opening its eye in the dark👀👀#longwinded but ya thats like the Clearest idea for Specific Events so far other things are Stuff I Want To Happen

have not watched transformers: one, but from what i've seen so far proves my point about transformers: animated having the only good sentinel prime in any transformers media ever.
#.txt#and not in the character morality sense either.#i mean as a character entirely. animated sentinel prime (specifically season 2) is so great and such an interesting parallel to optimus;#they are two sides of the same coin but we only see him through optimus' lenses which although not unreliable is still biased.#(which is not a bad thing! i do genuinely love how the op/sen/e1 incident is so grey yet understandable on all sides.)#when a bot is born into a society that rewards falling in line; blind loyalty and the incapability of questioning authority;#competing against your fellow men; and encourages conservatism and keeping the same system in power unchanging;#is it any wonder sentinel prime turned out the way he did?#placed to be the next magnus (alias political puppet) when ultra magnus himself makes it so obvious he sees optimus as his successor.#i have to congratulate sentinel for not just massacring the entire autobot elite guard and ministry of science and committing suicide.#but i guess that's infinitely less compelling then making sentinel a complete and utter asshole with no redeeming qualities that's less of#character and more of a prop for optimus ( ̷a̷n̷d̷ ̷m̷e̷g̷a̷t̷r̷o̷n̷'̷s̷ and co.) storylines to completely absolve stories of nuance#and more funny haha sentinel is a jerk tf meme moments.

First piece of the year!! ❄️⛄️ (version without snow and my og doodle under the cut :p )

#maccadams#transformers#mtmte#ultra magnus#more than meets the eye#transformers idw#hashi do art#tf ultra magnus#lost light#considering making him my icon because I really like how he turned out!#between this and the brainstorm and first aid piece I did I think I’m having wayyyy to much fun with lighting and color#also I am 100% watching g1 next and I’m concerned for him…I know he has a tendency to get wrecked in most iterations#hella excited though I made a list and printed it out cause the two things I’m watching it on don’t have the eps in order all the time

What if we switch Minimus and Dominus in the story?
What might be the consequences?
#maccadam#transformers#mtmte minimus ambus#mtmte Dominus Ambus#as in_ Minimus becomes Agent 113 / Vos_ and Dominus becomes the next Ultra Magnus#from reading their tfwiki pages seems like Dominus's loadbearing ability isn't as adaptable as Minimus's is#so that might be a fun restriction to play with later on#but also... Minimus possibly getting Domesticated...

The Search: Remaining Characters
we have autobots and decepticons already covered up, but there is still two characters left to talk about.
Ultra Magnus: - Lost his leg in a battle, his new one was made poorely so he uses wheelchair sometimes - Has an absolutely normal unsuspicious cane where no weapons are hidden for sure - After loosing his leg he retired, but kinda forgot to tell anyone so autobots and decepticons alike think he's dead, and his figure grew into a legendary one - Way older than any other transformer present in the story
Sal Kralp: - Doesn't really like her full name or discussing her job - Scientist on the human Mira 2 research facility - Alligned with autobots - The alliance mostly comes down to friendly chatting
#next up will probably some notes and general info about the world#not that there's much about it anyway#i suck ass at worldbuilding#the search#tf#transformers#transformers fan continuity#transformers the search#ultra magnus#maccadam

I read one fic and now I ship the Animated versions of Ratchet and Ultra Magnus, I shit you not...
...aaannd I wanna give them a kid or two!
#here me out#they're (implied) to be on bad terms#they're both bonded to their respective omega sentinels (omega for ratchet and sigma for ultra) and both of their omega sentinels had to be#put in a modified stasis lock#and in my fanon they both love another cybertronian but can't be with them for reasons beyond their control (arcee for ratchet and megatron#for Ultra)#so one night they're both at maccadam's and run into each other#both are drunk#and they begin ranting about the other and how their lives#one thing led to another and ultra somehow ended up in ratchet's apartment and they fuck#both wake up early next morning and asks what the frag did they do and they agree to never speak about it again (especially if optimus is#ultra's son and they agree that it would be especially awkward for optimus if he ever found out what they did. they hide it well though)#until one or both of them ends up sparked with the other's baby#but don't worry they set up a good co-parenting plan and never brings their issues in front of the kids#which could lead to something more#sorry rant#transformers animated#tfa#ratchet#tfa ratchet#ultra magnus#tfa ultra magnus#ratchmags#ratchet x ultra magnus

what do you think of Optimus and Hot rods relationship, yknow if he gets to hang out with hot rod before kicking the bucket
oooh thats a good question. in my mind i don’t think optimus thinks that much of hot rod. i think he LIKES hot rod and obviously he’s nice to him etc etc but i dont think optimus would have ever guessed hot rod would be his successor. they’re fundamentally opposed in opinions and personality.
like optimus CHOOSES ultra magnus to carry the matrix of leadership. he doesn’t know hot rod is the one who can open it- if he did, surely he would have just given it to hot rod, and saved them all lot of grief. but during the movie, hot rod continuously proves himself worthy of the matrix, listening and learning from the people around him, and i think that’s why optimus gives him the name rodimus when he finally unleashes the matrix- optimus recognized him as worthy.
but when they’re alive, i don’t think optimus would think twice about hot rod. he’s a great kid but not the next prime. that’s his unruly leaps before he looks fun loving low on the chain of command hot rod. that’s his friend, surely, but not who he would have picked.
as for hot rod, i think he has an amicable relationship with optimus. probably tries to get him to lighten up more and teases him a lot. also doesn’t hesitate to disobey one of his orders if he thinks it’s wrong, which can lead them to butting heads. but hot rod also has a great deal of respect for optimus, which is why taking on the mantle after him is such an enormous burden. the shadow that he lives under is HUGE. hot rod is terrified of not living up to him, not only because everyone else’s thinks he should be like optimus, but because he ALSO thinks he should be like optimus, because he also respects and admired him and feels so much dread and guilt when he believes himself guilty of getting him killed.
i think the idea of them having a mentor-mentee relationship is fun but ideally i actually don’t want that. i think it’s more interesting when they don’t have a particularly strong relationship beyond a bit of hero worship from hot rod (that skyrockets after optimus dies), that optimus doesn’t view hot rod as his successor, that they’re amicable friends but if it had been optimus’s decision he would have never chose hot rod. optimus will choose someone else to carry on his legacy but in the end it isn’t his choice- it’s the matrix’s.
#the whole chosen one narrative of the movie fascinates me because i think there’s an argüèrent to make that#optimus DID think hot rod could be the next chosen one#but he wasn’t ready yet so he gave it to ultra magnus#so hot rod could become ready#which is why he states that neither HIM OR ULTRA MAGNUS is worthy#and calls hot rod rodimus when he gets the matrix#OR optimus was simply being humble when he said he wasn’t worthy of the matrix either#and truly had no idea the matrix would prefer hot rod instead#either way is fun#but i like the idea that hot rod just isn’t his first choice#but hot rod is the one who’s finally able to end the war#master emerald brothel#tf rollback optimus and hot rod…….

Continued from here! ( @cybertr0nian )
Sorry, Ultra Magnus. She only knows baby language. The little one was pleased when he picked her up in his huge palm. Star then touched the palm beneath her with her little hands, seeming to be comparing hers with his own. She seemed to be delighted by the massive difference as she began to laugh.
Safe to say that this baby does not hate his aft.
