getting to know at least one professor is so important. not for networking reasons or whatever but because it makes you feel like their special little henchman & gives you a terrible motivation to impress them and say stuff like "you tell em boss"

Only one guy on here has two eyes, and even then, they're fake eyes. It's big-tits-McGee, Mr. logic man extraordinaire, Geneva Suggestion Believer himself: Shockwave! Yep, all 12 of him, a reasonable amount of alternates to have, unlike some people... Shockwave Height Chart, everyone, fuckin wee.

Edit: I didn't like the old scaling I had so I changed it. The old chart is at the end of this post.

Quick Disclaimer, if any of the images look weird, it's because I had to stitch a few separate images together to create a full body shot of the character.

Here are links to my Bumblebee Chart, my Optimus Chart, my Megatron Chart, and my Soundwave Chart. !!NEW!! -> Ratchet & Ironhide. Please go gawk at how many Optimus designs there are, sweet fuck, there are so many. For future reference, all these charts will be filed under my "Transformers Height Charts" tag and my "aka the adventures of a..." tag.

Master Post

Explanations and Sources below the cut.

Unicron Trilogy Energon - ~14 feet 3 inches (No actual source, and Energon doesn't have any listed heights anywhere. For the uneducated, the Unicron Trilogy has given each of its 3 seasons separate names and 3 separate art styles. This is the design used in Energon (S2) though he only shows up in Energon. I was able to compare him to Optimus, and using Cybertron's listed heights, I got this number. I am in physical pain, it does not get better from here. Hilarious side note, his Japanese name is Laserwave, which contains the missing "wave" of Shockwave in this iteration's name.)

Earth Spark - ~15 feet (No actual source for ES, but using a barn door to get Bumblebee's height, then Optimus's, then Megatron's height, I was able to make a guess at Shockwave's. Shockwave comes up to about Megatron's chin; I lost the screenshot I used. It's so convoluted, I know, but it's all I have, also, tiny universe, everyone is so small)

TFA Longarm/V1 - 15 feet 2 inches (Animated has no actual numbers, but the lovely @phoenix-inanis has provided a frankly astounding resource with their own calculations for the heights of all the TFA characters. Go look at it, it's wonderful -> https://phoenix-inanis.notion.site/TFA-Height-Chart-f6ad2960ca8c4c5b859ee4958723aaa4?pvs=4)

Gen 1 - ~18 feet (TFWiki, uuuuh I've got nothing to add)

Netflix Cybertron Trilogy - ~18 feet (I have no source for this, other than assuming that because this design is identical to Gen 1, they are the same height. That's it, really)

Knight/Capel-Verse - ~18 feet (No source, and he never stands next to anyone I can measure him against, but because the TFOne director has said that this movie is both canon to the LA movies and its own separate canon, I am assuming the height I figured out for TFOne applies to this universe as well. Until proven otherwise. Capel directed the ROTB movie if you're wondering why his name is there)

One - ~18 feet (No source, I got this number by comparing him to Optimus. Now, I am aware of the TFO heights listed on the wiki, but I reject those numbers on principal. A: Those numbers are sourced from the Walmart Promotional AR Experience that came out before the movie. B: There are three decimal points, and that number does not convert into a whole number in meters (which is originally what I thought was weird about it). C: The director has said that this movie is both canon to the LA movies and its own separate canon, so I have elected to use the few given heights we have from KCV and worked from there. My Optimus post has slightly more context if you want it)

Cyberverse - 20 feet (This comes from a screenshot of this video which has the Cyberverse height chart everyone uses, though the quality of the screenshot is iffy.)

Aligned Cont. WF/FOC/TFP - 26 feet 2 inches (This number comes from Fandom and I completely believe it, even if they don't list their source, because the entirety of this universe is freakishly tall. Go look at my other charts, all the ALC designs are monstrous compared to the others)

TFA V2 - 29 feet 11 inches (Once again, phoenix-inanis did a fuck ton of work, go look at it, it's wonderful -> https://phoenix-inanis.notion.site/TFA-Height-Chart-f6ad2960ca8c4c5b859ee4958723aaa4?pvs=4)

Bayverse - ~30 feet (Ok, so I don't have a source for this one. There used to be one, BV Shockwave used to be listed as 40 feet tall bc of an article done to promote the movie, but that is no longer listed for reasons not known to me, and making some comparisons to Optimus, I have found them to be kinda close in height. It's very hard to actually validate any of this. Shockwave never stands normally next to anything I can use as a ruler at any point in the movie. He's always at a dramatic angle or partially covered by something in the shot. It's so violently frustrating. I am confident he is around this height though, I just can't figure out how much taller than Optimus he is)

And that's it. I didn't have to leave any designs out, all of them are included here (hopefully). It was so nice to work with a character where I wasn't drowning in 20+ designs across every goddamn universe.

Edit: Here are the different layers separated.

vvv Old scale vvv

[epicfirestormer]

(holds all three in my hands) I just think they're neat

[ipostmysimpingstuffanonymously]

They both lost their team and their teacher....

[starsqueak]

I generally cannot get over the fact that 2 of my favorite version of Megatron are opposites

[apollosgiftofprophecy]

Apollo chronically uses terms of endearment.

[flying-ham]

love love LOVE when I’m watching a late season spn recap and they use an out of context soundbite from the early seasons

[m00nbuggies]

had a moment of weakness and drew them last night. ugh. stupid dumb idiots

[transingthoseformers]

Tfa Optimus should absolutely be more than the deceptions can handle. I bet Megatron barely makes out out of that room alive. Blitzwing and Lugnut need medical attention afterward. I bet Ratchet is looking over the scene like "Ahh, I remember those days" because the party ambulance was no different. The only reason Optimus didn't become some sort of urban legend is because Sentinel and Elita-1 put their whole back into preventing it. Troopers frfr.

I think after being imprisoned, Megatron should think about Optimus. That little mech could keep up with him in a fight, sure, that's nice. But completely domming his processor out? He's obsessed. Optimus gave him a new kink, and he can't even explore it because he's in jail.

Make that strong, scary warlord into a wet paper bag in bed. Not because that's how he is, but because that's what Optimus is capable of. Black arachnia and Sentinel sense this happening btw, they're both losing it trying to find him and stop him.

Oof on Lugnut and Blitzwing, damn

It'd be funny if Optimus did become some sort of sex urban legend in the academy I'll admit

Sentinel and Elita are like the opposite of wingmen here, for Optimus's sake

Megatron, who is bored out of his mind in his cell:

Megatron, when it starts to hit him: oh

Megatron: OHHHH

This is gonna create such a fun dynamic after the decepticons break out

You know this puts an interesting twist on some of Sentinel and Elita/Blackarachnia's interactions with Optimus (plus of course the canon stuff of course)

Blackarachnia: I sense a disturbance in the force /ref

Sentinel Magnus: something just happened; why do I feel like it's Optimus's fault

Here's a preview of stuff. I am not sure when I'll get the results, probably in a few months? Which is fine, I have plenty of work to catch up on. But if you wanted those standees and whatnot, keep an eye on my socials!

[onyxstic]

So ao3 went down a while back, had a moment of derangement and the only thing on my mind were those silly little robots so

Boom shakalaka all the sketches I did:

Also featuring my oc skillet who recently went under surgery so he could get a better design 💯

And yes some of the sketches are wonky, but I don’t have motivation at all to fix it rn 😭

[karlyboyyy]

Can’t escape the nightmares

[avocado62524]

[blighted-lights]

i think it'd be rlly funny if ravage and minimus hated each other btw. the only reason they get along is bc of their mutual connection to megatron. and even that isn't enough sometimes lmao

[secretly-a-catamount]

I’m sorry, but if you think that Raoul wouldn’t switch places with Christine to be bait for the Phantom if he could, you’re just objectively wrong (it’s okay, I still love you).
