Transformers Cybertron transformation part 1

[@Jormyyy]

Y'all ever realize how genius these transformation sequences were for marketing the bot's toys? Not only do they yell their name aloud so you could more easily remember who was who (and ask your parents which bot specifically you wanted because of it), but they even show step by step instructions on how to transform them. If you saw one and liked the way they transformed, you'd want to get the toy of them to do it for yourself.

[@Jnitro991]

Frankly the transformation sequences were what got me into this show so yeah it worked I just wished they did this more often in future shows cause you can never tell how they do it in the show compared to the toys

[@Lu1zF3l1pe]

I mean they don't have to look normal vehicles. Decepticons turn into military stuff like tanks and drive on cities lol and on TFP Optimus became a military truck. The law of Autobots being civil vehicles and Decepticons being military should end, to me the only thing that matters is what they turn into, if it's weaponed or not shouldn't matter. Ironhide for example should be a military vehicle, bcs he's fucking badass and weaponed

That exchange with Scattershot after he scanned his tank alt mode was brilliant.
