They really limit the ability for people to vote by having it be an app-only thing.

Went with Quakebreak, the nemesis of Galvatronus. The other two options I voted for can be summed up by Beyonce and her crew.

Yeah, went with Quakebreak as well. Slammoth and Victorion sounded kinda stupid.

OK, but only if she looks like this...

Shouldn't this (and the Galvatronus) article point towards the official Transformers app rather than the Battle Tactics game? Unless it's different in the States, they are different apps and these appeared in the former rather than the game.

I liked it too, but not for a female character. Not sure why. Guess all I could think of with that name is a funky repaint of Big Convoy.

SLAMMOTH!

...should really be saved for an Ice Age-themed Transformer/team. Though I'm not real crazy about the other options.

Sheeeeeesh. Those are all dreadfully terrible names! That crew should be taken out and whipped... except for the guy who came up with the quakebreak one. That's decent. The others are embarrassingly bad. Sounds like the interns thought of names. Ugh.

Quakebreak is cool (might actually use it for a fan-made character one day), Victorion would be awesome for a female combiner. Slammoth... That should be the name of FansProject's Ice Age-themed combiner.

The torso hasn't been revealed yet oddly enough.

Went with male because that's what I want.

Anyone notice the new looking grimlock under the independent heading? Could be a new figure which would be cool.

Posted by Syn_13 on February 26th, 2015 @ 11:15am CST

Went with a female combiner, because I want more fembots and a combining one would be unique. Plus, I'd love to see a Hot Spot or Motormaster be re-moulded into a beefy female character!

Also went for a Leader type, as an in charge fembot would be cool. Name had to be Quakebreak, because the other 2 sucked so bad. I actually can't remember what I put for the Nemesis.

You voted the most unlikable choices in my opinion lol.

I can see Victorion being the name of a female combiner leader. Too bad I don't have anything capable of downloading apps. >:oP

Someone else might, though.

Posted by SFXPrime on February 26th, 2015 @ 11:32am CST

Okay, so I went with Female, Victorion, Independent, and nemesis Devastator. I didn't really like any of the names but Victorion sounded the most female appropriate to me. However, I am a little disappointed about how generalized the gender choice was. I wanted the team to be a mix a male and female Transformers. As a nemesis, I picked Devastator as the enemy because this combiner is from the Sea of Rust right?

If I felt like installing it again I vote female for new change new type of
Combiner but knowing this combined is going to be repaint of original combiner that we have out now not wasting my time to vote be type new look of cimbiber will strike my interest to vote not repaint of one

I hope it's a female Combiner. We've never had one of those before.

No offense to quakebreak, but that name is amazingly dumb, and doesn't mean jack or shit to me; and jack left town. I'm going to be amazingly bitter towards the fandom of quakebreak wins. Just imagine that introduction. "Hi, my name is quakbreak, it's like an earthquake that breaks things. My name rhymes. " Slammoth is amazingly funny, but what is a Slammoth compared to a VICTORION! I can imagine with a name like that, and if in the comics she is from caminus descent, she would probably be the swift left hook of whatever zealotry the Mistress of Flame employs for the preservation of Columbia Caminus; for what is a life compared to a faith.

Some of the most unoriginal names I have ever heard for transformers. Not that I put much stock into these polls. Windblade sucked, and I am sure this one will too. Probably end up being a "fembot" combiner or something lame like that.

Anyway...

Looking forward to something original, so my preferences are Female, Victorion, Galvantronus nemesis and Independent

Seriously, if it's a female named Victorion, we can all call her Vicky and it would be awesome.

Think about it.

I like the idea of it being named Slammoth. I went and messed around with Superion and you can make a decent quadruped combiner out of him. A remolded head, that I would assume we would get, is all that's really needed.

Because there is NO such thing a male or female Transformer. It is a damn robot.

It's called suspension of disbelief. Again, you singled out the idea of a female transformer as audacious; yet "male" transformers which most decidedly are, that's a second thought on the ruined forever scale.

I can actually see "Quakebreak" being the winner since the superpower round of voting had "Gravity Control" and "Earthquake" as votable options (with "teleportation" being the third option), and "Gravity Control" seemed to be the most popular choice of the three since it was something new.

Funny you should say that, a Brave mech from the canceled Saint of Braves Baan Gaan was to be called Victorion. He appears in the Brave Saga 2 game for the PSX:

Why I'm bringing this up? The Brave series is by TakaraTomy, but the designs are property of Bandai now...

If Slammoth doesn't win, the name can be applied to a Big Convoy-based remold of Optimus whose combiner form is named Ultra Slammoth.

It took them this long to become this inclusive in the first place. I think Hasbro is still a ways away from introducing non-binary characters, as much as that kind of representation would rock.

Any idea when the last boat-load of voting topics will be revealed? I am particularly interested in the results of the colour scheme poll. I went with the 3rd option, because I thought it was the most unique, and kindof reminded me of Leo Kaiser.

Didn't IDW's Arcee use to be a guy, or was that from another comic continuity?
Or if you want to get meta with the franchise there's Beast Wars Airazor and Speed Convoy/Override. Now there's some fanon fuel for ya.

Still can't actually vote because I don't own an android/iphone. I thought I could vote with Google Play, but as far as I know it only lets you download apps to your smartphone from your PC, which frankly is redundant.

If we get a female combiner we might have some werid looking transformer combiner wars figures plus we know hasbro is NOT a fan of female transformers theirs not been really many female transformer characters plus victorian is a female name and slammoth and quakebreak are male names plus i would vote Transformers gender male loyalty slammoth (does anyone notice that the powers might be why the names be like that) nemsis galvatronus plus i would like a female combiner but not a fan built combiner to be that because we never gotten a combiner from the sea of rust (that i would like to be male)
