    Reimagining Quintessons

    Yes. As cheesy and literal as that sounds, the cartoon made it very clear (especially in "The Rebirth") that a Golden Age on Cybertron was signified by the planet's energy-rich gold coloration.

    AFAIK, this is the only time any sort of awareness of each other between the two has ever been depicted:

    Cybertron is also supposed to be in the middle of its Golden Age when Alpha Trion is in ownership of the Matrix, yet the planet is certainly not colored gold in that part of the FFOD flashback.

    The Taxonomy of Toy-Based Fiction, or a further look at Continuity Families

    The wiki has a MEGA archive of every chapter in its original Japanese form, but only a small handful of chapters have actually been translated in English (and some by a translator who made some rather questionable translation choices). The wiki's archive has all of those few, too. What you...

    Reimagining Quintessons

    Since we now have access to the episode's full script, we can see that the scene specifically called for the "War Dawn" version of Alpha Trion to appear (see Page 44), meaning the use of the more aged version was indeed a mistake on the animators' part.

    The Matrix itself is also drawn woefully off model in that last pic, too.

    The Taxonomy of Toy-Based Fiction, or a further look at Continuity Families

    I recognize you're pointing out the Deadpool expy-ness, but due to differences in writers, SG Drift's personality ended up shifting away from a Deadpool homage to instead make him act more like an outlandish Samurai stereotype as if portrayed by a stereotypical weaboo.

    The Taxonomy of Toy-Based Fiction, or a further look at Continuity Families

    But again, Legends was able to be so simple about it because it took place in a world where the characters had diagetic access to information that was non-diagetic in all the other worlds.

    The Selects manga made him the original Quintesson leader who first possessed the Matrix during the (retconned-to-be) occupation of the planet. Even stuck his noggin on a Rodimus-colored version of Floro Dery's original Quintesson body design.

    The Taxonomy of Toy-Based Fiction, or a further look at Continuity Families

    Cyberverse season 3-4 was really the first time a main TF cartoon actually tried to really dabble in multiversal fun, with the Megatron X and Tarn story. According to this Q&A with writer Mae Catt, she "would’ve liked to have the other Transformers series show up (TFP, TFA, G1, Shattered...

    Not in the past, they didn't. Rewatching both the video Glitch posted and the episode "Forever is a Long Time Coming", there are no transforming minions shown working for the Quintessons. No Sharkticons, no Allicons, nothing. All that are seen are Quintesson Judges, Prosecutors, Executioners...
