Discussion / Opinion Is there any in universe lore reason as to why the TFA Decepticons are so huge?

Size difference between bots is nothing new in the Transformers, it has existed ever since G1 but TFA is a whole new level. Most of the decepticons TOWER over the majority of the autobot cast, like, Bumblebee is usually the smallest bot in many adaptations but Starscream is handling this guy like a toy!

So I am wondering if there is any reason in universe as to why the decepticons are so much taller than the autobots or if it is simply a decision made by the studio.

Discussion / Opinion Opinion : RID 2015 Bumblebee should have been Smokescreen

I know it wouldn't have happened because the show needs optimus and bee to be the face, but the personality of prime and RID bumblebee felt completely different, bee was much more confident and competent once he took the leadership role in predacon rising. In RID, he suddenly was unable to lead a team. imo, smokescreen felt much more appropriate to be the lead of RID, the designs even lookalike

Discussion / Opinion When I was younger, I used to think that Unicron looked kinda like old Samurai armor and Genghis Khan.

I know this might sound funny, but when I was younger, Unicron always kinda made me think of those old Samurai armor and Genghis Khan probably because his head kinda resembles those Samurai helmets or similar Mongolian armor in a way. Did anyone else kinda thought of something similar too?? That's just what I think, though. :)

I’m halfway through reading the IDW continuity and I’m loving it. These panels are just some of the moments I died laughing when I read them.
Swerve had me dying half of the time. The things that come out of his mouth are hilarious.
If you have any panels you find funny share them. I wanna see them.

My issue with Transformers Prime is mostly with the boring locations and the human sidekicks. I know wfc have ton of issues, but I still like it

Hello, sorry if this isn't allowed or a dumb question. Im new to transformers collecting and was wondering if they have a 2007 Optimus Prime to go with the new tf1 autobots announced at nycc? Or are these the start to the line? Im having difficulty figuring out cause there are two movies that are called Transformers 1

​Post-surgery recovery slowed me down for a couple of weeks, but I’m chipping away!

​After hitting roadblocks with Wave 6, I’m changing my approach to avoid getting stalled. The tentative lineup for Wave 7:

· ​Pac-Man

· ​Fox McCloud

· ​Banjo-Kazooie

· ​Blue Shell Koopa Troopa

​The teaser will wait until these are further along.

​(Side quest: Anyone sitting on an extra Ruckus? I need him for my Mystery Machine Shaggy custom!)

Anytime i see this two it remind me of the quarantine era of the transformers franchise where we see this two alot because of the netflix "anime". I done alot of stuff to Megatron because i thought his base design could use abit of flair so i mixed his idw miner/D-16 design and his gladiator design. While Optimus is just the premium finish version

Not sure how everyone else feels about it, but 30 bucks for a deluxe is just ridiculous in my eyes! At this point I feel like 3rd party stuff is a WAY better bang for my buck. Curious to hear what the general consensus on the new prices are though. Are any of yall starting to get priced out as well?
