Ahhhh, been a long while since I read them. I had the entire Transformers series and about 60 or so GI Joe books from them but I lost them all during a roof leak a decade ago at a house I was renting.
As mentioned before Hasbro had most G1 characters killed off in the movie because they were going to stop selling those toys. They had no idea kids had latched on to the characters themselves and the story.
What I didn't quite understand about that scene when I was younger was that they say "Innocent" and force them to be eaten.
"Guilty!"
Fucking Hot Rod....piece of shit.
Innocent of removing them from controlling Cybertron aka the Transformers species. They just didnt give a damn and killed you anyway. How I saw it anyway
The finished movie is apparently a miss mesh of previous ideas and drafts rolled into one.
I remember the death of Ultra Magnus was much cooler in the comics too, in the movie he's shot by some little flying ship thingies and Galvatron, but in the comic he's literally pulled limb from limb by tractor beams:
That's how the death was in the original script, but it was edited for being too violent.I remember the death of Ultra Magnus was much cooler in the comics too, in the movie he's shot by some little flying ship thingies and Galvatron, but in the comic he's literally pulled limb from limb by tractor beams:
I didn't see the movie until years after reading the comic, and was so disappointed.

What? It was absolutely disgustingly bad in every way possible. "We need to fix Optimus! And now Optimus is fixed! Also we finished this episode in a week so the art and animation is abysmal."
None of this would have happened if Optimus had made Springer the leader... I mean he could turn into a car or a helicopter AND he dual wielded katana!
