There were convention exclusives, Collector's Club exclusives. Some already existing figures were reused as Shattered Glass characters.

@ You forgot about an episode from Challenge of the GoBots - the principal rival of Transformers in the 80s - where the positive universe Guardians are transported to a world where the roles of the Guardians and Renegades are switched, albeit with no differences in color scheme. The problem with this is those other franchises that you listed all gave their mirror universes a major media presence in the form of actual TV episodes. Shattered Glass has only ever been a major presence in convention-exclusive media. Nothing in mainstream media, like television or movies. It's an extremely niche part of the franchise that few casual fans know about.

I really love this series. It goes way further than a lot of what I've read and come to understand and makes one thing very clear: there's more to everything Transformers than meets the eye! Seriously, with so many continuities, conflicting origins, shared names and confusing timelines it seems you can do pretty much whatever you want with the Transformers and it'll be taken as canon. Not necessarily a BAD thing, but very... VERY confusing... which makes these videos all the more enjoyable because they're so ENLIGHTENING! Thank you for producing these. I hope to see a great deal more!

[@SciFiFan2012]

So if Unicron is a multiversal singularity (if i remember correctly), then how is there a universe where Unicron occurs as a good guy? He couldn't be benevolent in one reality and evil in all other realities, could he?

[@ChrisMcFeely]

The events of "Another Light" included Nexus Prime using the Star Saber and Terminus Blade to destroy the concept of multiversal singularities, so that multiple discrete incarnations of those characters can now exist in each universe, and the SG Unicron did not come into being until after that had happened. That said, even before that, it's been noted that singularities are subject to the "laws" of any universe they enter - for example, if they entered a two-dimensional universe, they would become 2D. Entering a "negative polarity" universe would logically invert aspects of them for the duration of their stay. It's been noted that because of that singularities refrain from entering "Shattered" universes. The story featuring The Fallen mentioned in this video stresses that he winds up in the SG universe by accident and that the world has never been visited by any of his siblings - but his body also becomes "mirrored," and instead of being constantly on fire, as the picture in the video shows, he becomes coated in ice.

Back in teh early 2000s there was actually a decently populated fan-run community dedicated to the Transformers "Mirrorverse" as it was referred to. It actually laid out considerable rules for those wanting to do fanfiction and art so as to not go off in weird directions, and people could read stuff from different authors that wouldn't conflict with the overall universe they'd created. It was long before the official Shattered Glass came out, and sadly, it shut down mid 00s, due to the forum costs and other committments. There's a few of the stories still floating about online, though. It was exceptionally darker and a lot less light hearted than SG, and in a lot of ways, superior to the SG universe. I miss it.

honestly I'd say the mirror-verse actually makes MORE sense than the classic one, at least for stories like transformers prime, where the deceptions are Ex-slaves that rebeled against the upper class.

[@TheHaddonfieldRegistry]

Just now realizing we probably need a basic on Fun Publication, BotCon, and the Transformers Collector's Club

[@Grimlock2183]

Shattered Glass still lives! Its now represented in alternate art for 14 Transformers cards in Magic The Gathering’s Brother’s War set.

[@Tywil714]

The shattered glass storyline makes you wonder how quickly the war would have ended i the autobots favor if they were more ruthless and agressive as the decepticons were.

[@ironmaster6496]

Totally, in fact it's kind of disturbing how the evil autobots are far crueler than the Decepticons ever were

[@MadokaTokisaki]

Coming back to this video now, 5 years later, as IDW has picked up the Shattered Glass series and I have a new release of SG Ultra Magnus on my desk

[@TheDaxter11]

8:23 professor sumdac was gonna be animated shattered glasses nick fury? oh cmon hasbro! i wanna see it even more now! ide also have loved to see sari fight her shattered glass counterpart as well, damn you hasbro... give us season 4!

[@joseluissifuentes8639]

And why does Shattered Optimus have a beard and Sari is more sexier and looks like a vandal??

[@FlashByKnight]

As a person who enjoys IDW's Shattered Glass, I never knew the concept was this old.

[@SkifiraPrime]

I wished they made Shattered Glass into a TV show.

[@ReinaHW]

It's a pity there the series was convention only, it sounds pretty cool.

[@bluerose1217]

I want an animated series for this so bad

[@clownplayer7265]

I could imagine an hypothetical tale.. "...though the destructive underbase was meant for destruction and chaos through knowledge, Starscream's absorption had an opposite effect, causing many casualties of the wars, both autobot and decepticon, to be brought back to life..."

[@genesismultiverse4896]

Now i imagine the transformers opening but with 🎶decepticons win the battle to destroy the evil forces of the autobots🎵

[@legodoc1853]

Primus: Haha, time to destroy Earth! *earth turns into Gaia* Gaia: WHO THE HELL THINKS THEY CAN ROLL UP ON ME?! Primus: *tries to flee* THIS WAS A MISTAKE!

[@actionman9451]

So it’s like a different timeline where the Decepticons are the good guys and the Autobots are the villains a nice twist reminds me of the Same as it never was episode from TMNT 2003 where Donatello is sent to an alternate timeline where the Shredder won.

[@undrhil]

While I never was able to get into the Shattered Glass comics, I used to read the webcomic series written by David Willis (if I remember correctly) the creator of those magazine mini-strips. I always loved his stories about SG Ravage!

[@transformerscollector7813]

Transformers shattered glass deserves a tv series

[@theautobotmechanic419]

Say YES! to a shattered glass series of the Transformers

[@TheSmart-CasualGamer]

Evil Mr. T Jazz? AWESOME!

[@sivanlevi3867]

"Shattered Glass has literally shattered the glass ceiling" Oh ho ho! Someboday give this guy a drink for unparalled sense of humor!

[@Franky_Sthein]

I would love to see a video about Galvatrons origin story. Hope you are willing to do that. Also nice videos, I have been a fan since G1 but missed out on most of the storys except for Beast Wars and Prime.

[@shinji4269]

Oh I can explain the g1 galvatron back story Ok it starts like this So starscream throws damaged megatron off the ship in space While starscream was leader Unicorn found megatron and gave him a upgrade in space After that He. Galvatron went back to earth to decepticon base Galvatron killed starscream at took over as the “new leader”

[@chingma8064]

Man, this makes me wish there was a Transformers show called Transformers: Beyond, which had a focus on the Multiverse, and how the various Autobots, Decepticons, Maximals, Predacons, and Mini-Cons of the Multiverse would interact with each other over the course of several seasons. Have the Beyond Universe's Cybertronians interact with their alternate counterparts during a story when Shockwave tries to build a new Space Bridge. The Multiversal Space Bridge would be used by Autobots and Decepticons to enlist allies across the Multiverse, full of previous versions of Transformers. We could see Shattered Glass universes full of evil G1 and Animated Autobots and Maximals, and heroic Decepticons and Predacons. The One, the creator of the various versions of Primus and Unicron would be either be the main hostage or antagonist, and either stopping him or saving him would be the final mission or boss of the series.

[@videogollumer]

For the record, Star Trek was NOT the first to do an mirror universe. DC Comics did had already done one with the release of August 1964's Justice League of America #29, more than three full years before "Mirror, Mirror" aired, which introduced Earth-3 and its evil Justice League equivalent, the Crime Syndicate.

[@kaineshigaraki5253]

I do find it funny whenever a company tries to prank the fanbase with rage and the fans are like, nah, we actually like this. [>

[@astromotive6047]

Who is back after seeing/hearing about all of the Shattered Glass homages in SSSS. Gridman?

[@MoneyBags76]

Love this channel. I felt like a big kid hearing about transformers and make big mess of my shirt while eating ice cream 😆

[@jasontachin]

RW:actually when Hot Rod is in the Shattered Glass continuity I believe his name is Rodimus Cron.

[@DolphyBlueDrake]

Rodimus Cron is from the Prime Trilogy. In SG, he's just called "Rodimus" until he has himself crowned as Prime in the issue that mirrors the G1 movie. (He declares himself a Prime after he pulls the same stunt as G1 Starscream after Skylynx asks for the Autobots to jettison some weight just like Astrotrain did.)

[@jasontachin]

@@DolphyBlueDrake rw:i see what you mean.

[@thedriftyisaac6008]

If they made a show or movie about this it would change things up and be amazing

[@Seanatonin]

I would like to see a Transformers: Shattered Glass live action trilogy

[@stevencisneros9306]

We need an animated movie set in the Transformers Shattered Glass universe!!!
