And then Blitzwing teams up with the mysterious black elephant to save the legends world with the help of astrotrain? I can't wait for a synopsis of this one.

It's just the old G1 mold version pictured here, drawn in the style of Blitzwing's 1985 cartoon model.

The headless one Blitzwing takes control of to become his new Transtector body not only changes its colors but is reformatted entirely into resembling his new toy.

In other words, this isn't an indication of an upcoming Overcharge redeco of the TR/Legends Blitzwing mold. Otherwise, they would have drawn the Overcharges to match the new toy mold like they did with Blitzwing himself.

About that, could you post them here next time as well instead of just TFW? And also send them to our news staff e-mail, that would help

Another victim of being reduced to a Headmaster, Blitzwing is drinking with Astrotrain at Hardhead's bar and feeling like he's been to the Legends World once before, though Astrotrain thinks he's just spinning tall tales and makes fun of him for being unable to fight without orders. On the way home, Blitzwing insists he'd be the perfect soldier if only he had the perfect strategist giving him orders, but stops when he suddenly recalls his past and warns Astrotrain that the area is about to be bombed. Indeed, an army of tanks and jets suddenly overruns the city, an army that Blitzwing remembers being part of...

At the mayor's office, Megatron recognizes the attacking forces as Quintesson military hardware, even though the last Quintessons are supposed to have been sucked into a dimensional fissure. Soundblaster explains that the Quintessons have invented ways to traverse spacetime before, meaning the passage of time is irrelevant—these Quintessons must be from the past! The Quintesson leading the army is ordering his soldiers to destroy the city and turn it into an area where they can build factories and exile criminals, only to be interrupted when Blitzwing tackles him, angry about once having been a Quintesson slave. He's easily tossed aside by the Quintesson's personal Overcharge, however, and is left lamenting that he's no good at planning strategies when a robot mammoth calling himself Big Fight approaches and offers to be his strategist. In the meantime, Astrotrain has fetched his transtector and helps shoot down one of the Overcharges, allowing Blitzwing to modify it into a transtector of his own.

Big Fight doesn't offer a strategy for the coming battle, however, but just transforms into a gun for Blitzwing and tells him to make his own destiny. Reflecting that he's tired of being ordered around like a piece of military hardware anyway, Blitzwing decides to face his weakness and think for himself, flies to the battlefield and transforms into a tank in mid-air to crush the Quintesson's Overcharge. When the Quintesson escapes, the Overcharge begins despairing that he's not receiving orders and doesn't know what to do, causing Blitzwing to have a revelation—the Overcharge is him from the past! Looking his past self in the eyes, he tells him that his name is now Blitzwing and gives him his "orders": to be free, think for himself and do whatever he enjoys doing.

The army flees back to their own universe, with the Quintesson deeming whoever created this world dangerous and in need of investigation, while Blitzwing watches and recalls that, yeah, he did get his name from a big purple guy once. He asks Big Fight who he is, and the mammoth reveals he's just a local nerd afflicted with Transformers sickness who saw a chance to fight alongside a G1 Transformer and took it. Blitzwing then goes drinking with Astrotrain again, explaining that after abandoning the Quintessons, he joined the Decepticons, helped attack the Ark and ended up on Earth, though Astrotrain is still uninterested in hearing his stories. The next day, Big Fight, in reality the high school teacher Big Convoy, falls asleep during class.

primalxconvoy wrote:Btw, even though I scanned the original comics used here, I can't for the life of me see Blitzwing (Blitzedwing? ) having a wee outside in the street. Unfortunately, I HAVE seen my fair share of old Japanese men, at all times of the day, openly urinating in public. Is not masses of them, but fairly common, nonetheless.

Could someone help me locate the part in the comic please?

It's Astrotrain who does it, in the bottom-right corner of the first page.

What do you mean "giant one"? He was just one of several nameless Overcharges back then, all being the same size.

We get a full rundown of Metroplex's complete Japanese G1 history and more, including Metrobase's presence on Earth in the early 1980s (from the Micromaster manga), Metroplex's own creation in Scramble City, Metrotitan's birth in the Zone story pages, Metroplex and Metrotitan engaging one another in battle, Super Convoy's becoming a Powermaster with the Nebulan Hi-Q to acquire Nucleon Energy, Metroplex's powerup from his cartoon body to his Titan class toy body, Straxus's turning Megatron good to turn Metrotitan even more evil, Metroplex defeating Metrotitan at last putting the Metrowars to an end, the Cybertron Alliance being formed between Optimus and a reformed Megatron, everyone becoming Action Masters for the new era of peace, Megatron's friend Kiloton being murdered by humanity, said murder instigating the Generation 2 wars, Metroplex being pulled into the Legends World to defeat the Zamojin-controlled Windblade, many faces from across time and the multiverse likewise turning up in the Legends World, Trypticon's most recent resurrection in the Legends World and his fight with Metroplex there, and all the Citybots becoming New Akihabara City.

Plus, Megatron and Metroplex looking over the city together, and then Metroplex and the Aerialbots partaking in the energon barbecue that they had in the Aerialbots' Unite Warriors Offshot (with Armada Thrust being the one who takes the photo of that event), and then the upcoming Autobot Targetmaster Partners suddenly appear.

It's not. It's there as an illustrated reference to how Beast Wars Megatron stole G1 Megatron's spark to become his Transmetal 2 dragon form, and that when G1 Megatron's spark was inside BW Megatron's body, G1 Meggy's spark was exposed to BW Megs's Transmetal energy, which lay dormant inside G1 Megatron's spark until this point, in which it now surfaces and turns G1 Megatron into a Transmetal himself, his black version.

Well thanks for peeing on my fire.
