Armodillo, K-9, 2 Wolfangs, Manterror, Megatron Croc and a MOSC Scarem. I was hoping to clear out all my spares before I went back to Uni.

those two are meant to be the g1 characters carried over. And prowl transmetal i heard is meant to be prowl II which is a clone or something? it is in the comics

Kind of.

Prowl II was created as a shell for Wheeljack to transplant Prowl's dying Spark into. The procedure was unsuccessful, so they transferred the original data-tracks of Prowl into the shell along with the mind of Chip Chase. The combined entity is known as Prowl II. Prowl II first appeared in the G1 cartoon (image) - and has also appeared in the IDW Beast Wars and Timelines comics (as you said). His origin was explained in The Story of Binaltech.

What a load of bollocks. Convoluted much?!

I think it's a neat way of explaining what was really a series of mistakes. Also, Ichikawa Hirofumi is a fan-writer. AFAIK he's had no professional training in writing. I prefer his stories over most fanfics. Ah well, to each their own.

[Firestorm]

I sure did.

well i guess i'll thank you for those now, they havnt arrived yet though

as for that stuff about Prowl and Prowl II i kinda like there ghost-prowl-clone-the Second thingy idea

Well before the retcon came along, everyone just pointed and laughed at Prowl's presence in The Headmasters. Even though we knew why it happened, it was still a funny anomaly. I like how the retcon explains it.

...what is still NOT explained is the appearance of Wheeljack in Victory, reconstructing Ginrai into Victory Leo (alongside Minerva and Perceptor). As we all know Wheeljack was killed in Transformers The Movie, so his appearance in Victory is a contradiction. Another unexplained anomaly is that both Wheeljack and Perceptor's personalities are distinctly different from their appearances in previous seasons. Also their voice actors are different (from the Japanese dub actors in "Fight! Super Robot Life"). I suspect that writers/animators just chucked them in to have a team of Autobots to rebuild Ginrai, without really caring about who the slag they were! Gah.

Official retcon please!
