Happy #Obscursday! One of Cybertron’s lesser-known medical experts, KAPUT specializes in the study of Transformer sparks!
WEEKLY WEDNESDAY WIKIPIC! Melt!
This went up earlier but heat got me loopy. Taking it a little easy with a buncha pics I've uploaded over the past few weeks: Blokees WRECK-GAR, G1 JOYRIDE, Platinum MEGATRON, Combiner Hunter CHROMIA and Legacy WINDSWEEPER! @tfwiki.net
A BOY AND HIS BOB! Miles Mayhem tries to kidnap Matt Trakker's son, Scott. Little does he know that he's now placed V.E.N.O.M. in even greater jeopardy at the hands of... T-Bob?! M.A.S.K. #5 is now annotated on TFWiki! tfwiki.net/wiki/M.A.S.K...
#DidYouKnow that there were more colony planets beyond the four introduced in “Transformers: Cybertron?” A subsequent prose story introduced the planet Combatron, a dead, post-apocalyptic world home to rogue soldiers and a bunker full of doomsday weapons!
"They looked at balance and saw only weakness. They looked at us.... and saw nothing at all. The newcomers were undying creatures built from the unyielding shimmer... and they remade our land in their image."
#BehindTheBots follows orders with DEE BRADLEY BAKER: in addition to voicing Perry the Platypus, almost every single Clone Trooper, and many other creatures and aliens, he voiced multiple animals on “Rescue Bots” in addition to Bludgeon and Clout on “Robots in Disguise!”
This month's featured article spotlights MEGAZARAK, whose evil stretches across multiple universes: various iterations of this cross-dimensional conqueror have caused all sorts of trouble across the vast Transformers multiverse!
Happy #Obscursday! An artificial intelligence uploaded into a purpose-built Cybertronian chassis, CATSCAN is quite possibly one of the most unusual Wreckers ever to join the team!
WEEKLY WEDNESDAY WIKIPIC! Whoosh!
The BotBots OUTTA CONTROLLER was the last toy to have appeared in the cartoon (watch the cartoon) to need a user-supplied pic for... a while. Now it has one! And I found some neat trivia! Now at @tfwiki.net!

REMAKING THE ROOTS!
At the turn of the century (ugh), Diaclone became the place to snare "new" decos for reissue G1-mold exclusives. And most of these now have modern-toy versions! New pics at @tfwiki.net!
DEEP COVER is based on a Powered Convoy multi-pack-exclusive deco of the Countach mold. 🧵
So did we! Don't let anyone tell you it's bad
#DidYouKnow that the “Beast Machines” cartoon went through multiple revisions? In one early draft, the show would’ve ended with the reveal that the Transformers were the robotic descendants of humanity!
"You think I'm a joke? Want to know why I talk like I do? Because I like the future. I didn't fight through World War II to let you decide who deserves to be called a person!"
#BehindTheBots spotlights JAMES ASMUS, who’s written "X-Men", "My Little Pony", and "Rick and Morty" comics, in addition to the first-ever Transformers OGN! He also co-wrote a “Sesame Street” parody in which the Muppets fight evil libertarians (yes, really!)
Happy #Obscursday! Not all Autobots are heroic do-gooders: the Autobot LEATHERHIDE is an unscrupulous mad scientist who’ll gladly throw his lot in with Decepticons, Predacons, and other evildoers to advance his own bizarre experiments!
WEEKLY WEDNESDAY WIKIPIC! Sizzle!
