Rewriting Transformers Energon

[Gizmoboy]

I haven't watched any of these series since they first aired. Are they available for free viewing anywhere? Hell, I might even be willing to pay a small price to watch them all.

Tubi TV has a lot of them

One thing in list that jumps out at me is Long Haul being an upgraded unnamed Decepticon, not Demolishor. I would like that. Demolishor's story is way better if he stays dead.

Is there any chance that with the Transformers Engeron anniversary and the 40th anniversary of The Transformers Franchise Next year that The Transformers Engeron Dreamewave comic story could be finished with the new Publisher?
Simon Furman had a multiverse IDW story in mind that may have been his Transformers cybertron comic and with the Legacy line and the Anniversary's as well as the collision course idea that did not happen at IDW could we see something like it?

Anything's possible.

Why did the "Unicorn trilogy" have Megatron becoming Galvatron and back to Megatron in the next series and Galvatron again later?

Marketing.

It's the Circle of (Megatron) Life!

In Micron Legend he stayed Megatron(the toy was Megatron Super Mode), and then was Galvatron the entire time(the upgrade was Galvatron G) in Super Link. Galaxy Force as aired originally wasn't linked to the previous two, hence Master Megatron (though you can see where it started with the bits of Unicron in his design, and IIRC it was eventually folded in). While it was a co-production, from the way things worked out the cartoon was in large part produced with Japanese audiences in mind and dubbed over here, so that's something to consider in this sort of thing.

Iirc, Hasbro at the time compared Galvatron to the Hulk, as more of a temporary power-up.

Exceedingly unlikely. Dreamwave's late and unfinished issues are stuck in limbo. I don't see why a company theoretically couldn't just pay to spring them from limbo, but comic book companies don't have a lot of cash to throw at 'just for fun' projects like that. If any company would have done it, it would have been IDW, and they passed.

I wish though. Dreamwave's Armadaverse is their only storyline that was written all the way to completion. We still don't know the endgame for their G1 universe. We do know the endgame for Energon, but we can't have it.

We still don't know the endgame for their G1 universe.

At the very least, it felt like they were building up to events akin to TFTM.

We do know the endgame for Energon, but we can't have it.

Furman did once say that the final chapter of the unpublished Energon comics would basically lead into the Cybertron cartoon, since the last comic script ended with the beginning of the formation of the black hole.

Marketing.

What marketing would that be?

 

[Gizmoboy]

What marketing would that be?

Hasbro has said many times that they'll keep pushing out Megatron and Optimus because people know who those characters are. So, that being said, it is a marketing ploy based off of name recognition. They know they can market the names Megatron and Optimus Prime for ever and ever.

Why not Optimus Prime and Galvatron?

 

[Gizmoboy]

Good question. Hasbro doesn't feel that Galvatron has the same name recognition as Megatron.
