    Okay, here's what I'm stuck on...

    s
    p
    o
    i
    l
    e
    r
    s
    p
    a
    c
    e

    ACROSS
    1: A team that forms Devastator, seems to start with "D" (as I put "DiCola" for 1 Down) and has 11 letters. ???
    12: Four letters... I'm guessing either "Grand" or "Fire." Not sure which one as I haven't solved 2 Down yet.
    19: The lower-case "a" in "animated" is confusing me. How can a character be 'toy only' and 'animated' (i.e. appears in a cartoon)?? Did you mean "Toy-only Animated (capital "A") character"? i.e.: toy only character from the Transformers Animated line? If so, there's more than one toy-only character in Animated such as Dirge, Oilslick etc. With 5 spaces "Dirge" would be the more appropriate response, but the first "only" in that question has confused me too. <cries> (T_T)
    25: I can only think of "twist ties" but there's too many spaces.
    33: ??? So far I got _i_e_a_s
    34: ??? Four letters, I got "S" as the first letter.

    DOWN
    2. ??? I have __e_____r___ so far. Doesn't help.
    7. Again, no idea. I got M____m_____s so far.
    8. Dunno. I got _a__p_____
    13. I got "a" as the 3rd letter and that's it.
    18. I think you meant "18 Across" for this one? I think the answer to this is "Mustang" but I'm hesitant to write it down in case I'm wrong later (as I haven't solved any of the intersecting words).
    23: No idea. I got "s" for the last letter.
    32: ?? I have n__u___ which doesn't help. Could you tell me which particular Jetfire this question is referring too?

    Anyone else able to help?

    the ones I'm stuck on are

    Across:
    1. The only thing I could think of besides constructicons is decepticons but it doesn't line up with the answer to 2 down
    12. I dont know the japanese names for the various convoys well enough but if my answers to 2 down and 7 down are correct then it starts with s and ends in r.
    25. Dont have a clue
    33. Cant work this one out either
    34. same as the previous 2

    Down:
    13. I was thinking animated but it doesn't fit
    23. No idea

    'Star'.

    I guessed 'Star' but it might be wrong.

    You're right that this should be 18 Across and yes, it is 'Mustang'.

    Just got this one - 'Nebulon'. It's Cybertron Jetfire.

    Thanks guys! So it seems that the only ones we're still collectively stuck on are 1 Across and 34 Across (I don't think "Star" would be used twice would it?).

    Any chance for more clues for these, Lint?

    I would never have guessed that as I've never watched the Cybertron dub (only Galaxy Force)! Cheers.

    The three I don't have (assuming I'm wrong about 34 across) are:

    1 Across. A team that forms Devastator. D________O_
    34 Across. Can scream for a really long time. S___
    17 Down. Didn't save Sentinel from Megatron. (I'm not sure, is it 'army'? I wrote 'arse' for fun, but I'm fairly sure that's not right ) A___

    It's actually a really bad Australian accent. He's basically Steve Irwin.

    Maybe 23 Down is "Kids"?

    17 Down is Apex.

    Ah, thanks. If I ever did finish Megatron Origin I'm sure I then scooped it out of my brain. With a spoon. It was less painful than leaving it in there.

    I assume it means the kids in the TFU never have any competent parental supervision.
