I feel it should be noted that both Skullgrin and Bomb-Burst were late-addition replacements for what were originally going to be the modular gimmick toys of the Legacy Year 1 line, the Energon Monsters. Notice how Legacy Year 1 is the only line from Siege to now to not have its own modular...
With all the Pretender updates we've seen from this Hasbro team so far, proper shells that actually house a separate robot figure inside them seem to be the one gimmick that this current Hasbro team seems very reluctant to do. The closest we've ever come in recent years were the Prime Masters...
The Covenant of Primus book did this for the Aligned timeline too. The novels painted the Thirteen era as a totally bygone ancient era completely lost to time with no one still alive other than Alpha Trion having ever been there. Then the CoP went and put nearly every major character from the...
Though, the question being how G1-ified that Animated Omega Supreme would be. If it's just a redeco of Kingdom Ark with a new robot head, no thank you. That's not Animated Omega. At all.
I mean, the Nemesis 2-parter kinda went out of its way to all but state outright that the prophetic quotes in the Covenant of Primus were referring to the events of that 2-parter. The intention seems pretty clear that the "Megatron" described in the book was indeed referring to Beast Wars...
I have to wonder if the idea of The Fallen having a name similar to Megatron and serving as the in-universe inspiration for his name was possibly inspired by the Megatron of myth described in the Covenant of Primus in the Beast Wars series finale, with those who got the idea from that not...
I'm reminded of when we were first teased by Andrew "Hydra" Hall about Thrilling 30 Titan class Metroplex, describing his forthcoming reveal as "pants-pooping news".
And once the figure was revealed, "poop" became a synonym for "awesome" on here for a while.
Yeah, I previously brought up the possibility of Megatron's change for the worse being the product of exposure to some kind of corruptive substance like Dark Energon or something, based on a couple of shots in the trailer where his chest and arm look to be surging with some kind of evil-looking...
Hmmm....
The Ark of the Covenant...
The Covenant of Primus...
The next line after Legacy United is themed around the Thirteen, Primus's first creations...
I guess it could be Primus in some form.
BUT, it doesn't necessarily have to be a Primus that turns into Cybertron. It could be some...
He does, yes.
Or, maybe it was Quintessa who called him that? (I really don't wanna watch the movie again)
Either way, he was definitely called "Nemesis Prime" in TLK.
What Steevy meant by "not-Nemesis Prime" was the fact that it was Optimus himself corrupted to evil instead of Nemesis Prime...
