The planet not being Cybertron opens up a larger can of worms. If we assume the scene we're seeing is the Axalon's launch (it's shown to be collecting other Stasis Pods, as well as Protoform X's) then the Axalon wasn't near Cybertron when Megatron and the gang were stealing the Golden Disk. Is it just a large coincidence that Megs steers their ship towards wherever the Axalon is, presumably some distance from Cybertron, before trying to travel through time? Optimus says something in episode 1 about the Axalon being the only one able to lock on the Megatron's warp signature (meaning there was more than one ship in pursuit?) but surely they'd have to be in some sort of close proximity to be able to lock on to such a signature.Originally Posted by Hursticon
Late to the discussion as always, but to chime in - I'd agree; that planet seems to have land masses & water, not to mention an atmosphere, so I reckon it wouldn't be Cybertron either.
At least, if Maximal High-Command were worth their salt, they wouldn't want to be testing/experimenting on Protoform-X anywhere near Cybertron or its outposts.
I like to over-think stuff
