Questions that need Answering

[Hursticon]

For me, I've always wondered what happened to those who chose not to downsize/upgrade and join the protoform based factions? - Did they chose self imposed exile?, were they found uses/jobs in this new era?, is there really a giant retirement home?...

Obviously those closest to the heartbeats of the Autobot/Decepticon Wars would largely remain involved in some sort of Military, Political or Advisory role with the new Maximal/Predacon feuds but I'm curious as to what happened to the innocent bystanders, civilians and those who had simply had enough.

I think it'd be really interesting to see how these "Guzzlers" would assimilate into this new world or maybe even how they didn't fit into it? - How their cultures grew and assimilated or if one simply gave way to the other?
(A parallel of sorts to Australia's own Imagrational history in a way )

Guys like Trailbreaker, Sideswipe, Sunstreaker, Shadow Striker, Roulette etc. who never downsized　went off world and later returned to Cybertron after the events of Beast　Machines.

"Uhh... I think it's time we left again."

Hey that's a great idea for a comic book series. In fact IDW is publishing a comic book that is pretty much about that, just with less Maximals and Predcaons, starting next week.

Just to quickly jump this train's lines for a sec , which one is it? - Autocracy or one of the new Ongoings?
(I find it hard to keep up with all the new media, trying to stay abreast of what has already been produced is hard enough )

The other new ongoing: "Robots In Disguise".

And now back to Beast Wars...

What about: How are Cybertronians paying off the damage caused to Earth during the War?

Or a big one: Where do Spark come from?

Hasn't Earth been destroyed though?; or are we talking immediately after the end of the Autobot/Decepticon conflict/s?

Or a big one: Where do Spark come from?

My mind is still a pile of mush after trying to tackle that subject, annoyingly I just don't know enough about Biology of species to be able to suggest a possibly credible explanation.

I think it's just 'off limits' in BW times according to canon, with it's location kept secret. But I blew it up in Vernoverse. No more fleshlings ruining TF stories!

As for Spark, yeah, if a Prime controls the Matrix, who is an Autobot, how can new Decepticons come online?! It needs a definitive answer once and for all! Not some conglomeration of every different continuities theory smudged together and passed off as a working model.
