So I was digging around slightly and found that starscreams name in Ukrainian apparently translates as “dawnscream” which kinda makes him sound like a rooster that really hates mornings and I wanted you to have that mental image because I will not suffer alone

I hope you can be pleased that “mental image” progressed into a silly comic that included spending 2 hours alone drawing a close up of Starscream cracking his knuckles in preparation to scream for a side goal of hand anatomy practice.

totally random, but i started watching transformers prime on netflix (actually quite fun!) and like everyone is all “starscream you suck at leading, blah blah blah” but like, chain smoker seeker SIC StarScream totally lead the decepticons for like 3 slagging years?? while Megs was off on his space spiritual journey of procrastination??? and managed to not only continue successfully operating mining of a resource in numerous locations, but did it so well that the autobots literally thought the decepticons had left the planet?? 

like, how does someone manage to hide the fact that giant robots are going all over the world and sneaking around to loudly dig underground and keep it all from radar detection??? dude, starscream is the shit 

my biggest grievance with predacons rising

megatron: …because i now know the true meaning of oppression, and have thus lost my taste for inflicting it.
starscream [deadpan]: wow. oppression from someone physically stronger than you. i cannot imagine what that’s like.
megatron [actual quote from the COP version of the scene]: utter another sound and i will end you
starscream: WOW. I CANNOT IMAGINE.

Hey everyone! So as you may know, the TFP tag – the one meant for the entirety of a 65 episode-long show and a 65 minutes movie – is being commandeered by a SINGLE EPISODE of Sherlock.

Haha, no. We were here first. We’re part of a 30+ year-long fandom. We’re being told to change our tag – a tag we’ve had for 6 years. We lost the TFA tag (lbr Star Wars is bigger than anything, including Sherlock), we’re holding onto TFP.

To the Sherlock fans who think we’re being petty: you don’t understand what this series did for Transformers. You don’t understand the impact of one of the most successful Transformers reboots to date. You don’t understand that this series won Emmys – a feat only accomplished before by Beast Wars back in the ‘90s. You don’t understand that TFP was supposed to be a 5 episode miniseries, only to become a grand retelling of characters we’ve come to know and love over the course of 30+ years.

The animators did every episode in three months when it should have taken five. We got Brian fucking Tyler to do the entire TFP score, creating one of the best Transformers themes we’ve heard. It’s had its ups and downs that we’ll gripe about and dig into as much as someone who loathes the series. But as you may know, nobody hates Transformers more than Transformers fans.

So hours upon hours of animation is less important than your 2 hour episode? A single episode? Alright. But remember that post about liking old guys? We’re gonna do it again.

We’re not just going to hijack the TFP tag, we’re gonna stick a flag in it and claim it for the colonization of Cybertron.

Everyone, stay tuned for a half-month TFP Challenge! We’re gonna do this with class.
