    Transformers - fun and educational!
    I've made a Transformers Latin quiz which looks at some Transformers names & terminology which have come directly from Latin. We frequently use these words in Transformers, but do we know what they mean?

    It's something that I originally created for my G1 Stinger fan bio, which retcons the 1984 red variant of the original Bumblebee toy. But yeah, it was also a deliberate play on how Stinger is arguably anything but a Masterpiece.
    i.e.:
    * Made by KSI in imitation of Bumblebee (which he refers to as a "cheap knock off").
    * Dat transformation.
    * A rather forgetful character (even as a "prime clone," which is how I've written him )
    You'll notice that in the G1 bio, Stinger has all of Bumblebee's powers, but weaker; further reinforcing the idea that he is an inferior imitation of Bumblebee.

    The next choice was only logical.
