The Stunticons Retrospective - Decepticon Kings of the Road!

[@RodimusPrimal]

When the Decepticons needed some wheels to combat the Autobots, they constructed the Stunticons to battle them on the roads. This team combines into the mighty Menasor!

Since Optimus has already beaten him, it would be better to see Nemesis Prime starting a rivalry with Motor master, both are Black trucks, and they are to outlaws, Motormaster is no necessarily fond of obeying Megatron, Nemesis Prime has no Faction, but Unicron may be his master depending on the continuity or origin.

I much prefer the biological stuff in IDW (00s or 19) because it makes transformers human.

In my opinion, Menasor seems to be the most dangerous Combiner due to not controlling himself in a combined form

[@joshfarmer8408]

That also makes him the easiest to deal with because, like pennywise, you just hurl insults at him and you win

[@casuallatecomer7597]

Actually, the most dangerous combiners are the ones whose components get along with each other. The G1 Predacons are arguably more dangerous than any other Decepticon combiner team because all of them agree on one thing: hunting. This means that their combined mode Predaking is a synergised, mentally stable individual greater than the sum of their parts, which should be the goal of combiners anyway. Menasor essentially has to fight himself in order to get all of his components in line in order to fight as Menasor, which makes him more of a liability than anything else. The stunticons are an example of how not to be a combiner IMO.

[@rebelife922]

@@casuallatecomer7597 to the original comment’s credit , if you take all of the Menasor stories in aggregate, he’s always the combiner that’s most indestructible and most prone to defeat other combiners. It took Prime combining with other Autobots (arguably some of the strongest like Prowl) just to defeat a Menasor that had already beaten Devastator, Superion, and Defensor. Then in that other story it took Omega Supreme to help defeat Menasor. So, while he can be unstable he is clearly a VERY dangerous threat.

[@grimlock2104]

Although you have a point, at least Menasor can take orders from Megatron (if reluctantly). Volcanicus is little more than a rampaging beast, running purely on instinct and Almost unable to differentiate friend from foe. That’s why we Dinobots rarely ever combine, to avoid collateral damage.

[@rebelife922]

Actually, Megatron(which he was involved in altering all the cars when Rumble delivered them to him, which is cool cause Prime was also involved in helping build the Arielbots)created the Stunticons. But as usual, great video and always informative!

it's still funny that someone said kids just like cars while in fact, kids can like jets & tanks & even GUNS as well. If anything, kids like likely anything in existence. hell they like monsters too. Yours truly, Terrorcons XD.

Drag strip is my favourite stunticon cause his design is is so awesome and i love his verchiel mode and if drag strip burst into a race I'd be cheering him on.

Menasor is my favorite Deception,Combiner, and Most Favorite Transformer and also Finally a video about the Stunticons

"Cosmic Rust" is one of the best G1 episodes.

Sometimes I feel like g1 Breakdown was roped onto the wrong side of the conflict. I just feel bad for him. He’s a paranoid scout that clearly isn’t soldier material.
