1st post of 2025 and it's Blitzbee. Fuckitweball

Left to Right, giving lore for everyone as this is AU is a giant cauldron from other iterations into one. There is crack, and there is plot.

Bumblebee: Is considered a hyrbid by Cybatronian standards and looked down for it. He alongside his twin/sparkbrother Cliffjumper, emerged to two creators. Bee taking after his Insecticon carrier whilst Cliff took after their Grounder sire. As a hybrid, it's hard to say where the Insecticon genes start and the Grounder genes end. He doesn't use his Alt-mode often. Like Cliff and their sire, Bee has a grounder engine and is incredibly fast, this along with his small size and agility gives him the edge on the racetrack and the battlefield.

He suffers from being the youngest and 'little guy' despite being a grown ass mech who swears like a sailor. The war was his childhood and he blames both Megatron & Optimus for it. He doesn't know how to give his kids a life he himself never lived. He has Blitzwing by his side but that only eases so much of his worries.

1 of his favorite hobbies is dancing on Sentinal Primes' last reserved nerve. He isn't afraid to get in his superiors faces and call them out on their bullshit.

Blitzwing: Was once an Overcharge serving a Quintesson, later leaving to join the Decepticons. After the Great War, he was rebuilt to be a Triple-Changer by Blackarachnia under Megatrons orders to better serve his cause. This left Blitzwing utterly scrambled mentally, his being torn into 3 distinct parts with little to no chance of reversing it. Blitz battled with himself on and off the battlefield, he suffered in the background and reveled in the carnage. He finds broken normalcy in the form of Bumblebee and their violent tango. The rest is history, but one he finds himself willing to relive.

Now he finds himself with a fear not even Unicron could instill in him. To protect something so precious not even Primus could replicate it. It's too much and everything all at the same time.

Osmia: The oldest and twin/spark-brother to Tataira. Certified Florida Man & twink. Named after the Osmia Calamintha Bee, his blue armor coloring which he inherited from Bees' dead sire. He's got an icy arrogance to him with a smart-ass mouth. More analytical & calculating than emotional but is a drama king deep down. Likes to challenge Optimus in riddles and hypothetical debates. Would live in the archives if he could. Not a huge people person and like his privacy.

Prefers Spring and Fall respectively but enjoys using his jets to 'skate' in Winter. The first to leave if shit goes sideways, he picks his battles. He can't stand being wrong or being kept in the dark, not knowing is dangerous. And he'll do anything for a tactical edge over any and everyone. He can't stand Sentinal and likes poking holes in his logic.

Tataira: Middle child and twin/spark-brother to Osmia. Arsonist & Semi-Professional Gaslighter. Named after the Oxytrigona Tataira Fire Bee. Equally hot tempered & passionate, quick to rain down fire and dare you to do something about it. Protective over what's dear to him & has no shame with expressing his emotions. Clashes with his brother constantly and is usually the one who has to check his ass. Loves Winter & Fall but fucking hates summer.

Has actually shot at Wasp with murderous intent and was pissed he missed. Spits fire at anyone he doesn't like, which was half of team prime when he was younger.

Riosa: The youngest by 5 years and Triple-Changer. A Jinx kin & a cannibal by choice. Named after the Giant Cliff Honeybee AKA Apis Laboriosa. The first one to throw morals out the window in the name of survival. Absolutely loves Earth and considers it home over Cybertron. Unpredictable and reckless, both with her emotions & actions. Always questioning authority and rebellious. While she can be sweet, there's something off with it. Is very chatty and enjoys fun conversation, she likes Jazz the most. Knows she's fucked up and she's sorta working on it.

Her venom can intoxicate someone, which can be fun at parties, sometimes. Can have pretty bad episodes and self-medicates by ingesting her own venom. Listening to music keeps her calm for the most part. Enjoys racing in either of her alt-modes.

BlitzBee Love(?) Story: Bee and Blitzwing didn't know each other on Cybertron. They only met on Earth in battle, exchanging blows and outta pocket insults. If they weren't trying to kill each other they were hate-fuckin. The war had taken any sort of normalcy they could've hoped for; this was the closest to normal for them in the worst way. Neither had anything to lose, not even each other, Blitzwing ripped out Bees' vox and Bumblebee turning Blitzs' chest into Swiss cheese 2 seconds later.

This fucked up little routine would soon come to bite them in the aft...

Bumblebee woke up one morning to carrier protocols on his screen & processor. He left the base to wander in hopes of clearing his head but that proved to do the opposite. He didn't have the option to terminate, Energon is scarce, he's been waiting on Earth this whole time so he's alone. The dread of what Optimus and others would say or do to him and the sparkling sends him spiraling. On pure accident he runs into Blitzwing, the tension is thick and obvious. If Bumblebee got carrier protocols, then there's no doubt Blitzwing has sire protocols.

Bumblebee tears into Blitzwing, even without a vox he gets his point across. The reveal that there's a sparkling on the way isn't pretty, Bee is crying by the end of it, and he falls to the ground hugging himself. Blitzwing sits beside him, clearly not knowing what to do, the new protocols refusing to let the bots offline the other.

Now they have to navigate the inevitable and try not to die along the way.

"Do you think they'll be a Triple-Changer?"

"I hope not..."

[kalolatformers]

She's ready to lead the autobots

[kalolasart]

Finished ref for Lunarstreak

My OpLita sparkling. If anyone's curious I might share some lore about her in the future.

It was my first time trying to design a bot and I love how she came out. I realised I put in much more of TF prime design than I originally intended since she was supposed to be based on ONE. Some friends also helped out with her 💕

Battle mode WIP below (her bottom wheels roll out so she can "skate")

Lalala guys I stg me and my buddy have been working on transformers oc stuff GUYS there's a whole slideshow we're on arc 3-4 right now 🗣️ for now take some scraps

[mlp410nightcore]

Hi Everyone!! Here is Electric Cyclone's redesign since I wasn't very happy with his first design and thought it desperately needed an upgrade. Link to his bio will be labeled at the bottom of this post. I really love how his newer design came out and it looks much, much better than his first one. Credit goes to Selenaede for the base I used and to Hasbro and Lauren Faust for creating Transformers and My Little Pony:Friendship Is Magic as well as creating the characters mentioned in this post. I only take credit for my next gens, art, ships, stories and the Blossom Love AU. I hope you guys like him, have a beautiful day and always believe in yourselves!!!

❄️ SNOWSTRIKE ❄️ basic reference and Character-writing principles

SnowStrike is a Femme Dinobot, Her allegiance being pledged to the Deceptions.

The best words to describe SnowStrike would be; Reserved, Intuitive, Skittish, sadistic, and protective.

SnowStrike is almost always in her alt-mode, giving her an easing sense of control and security. In her alt, being a Raptor, her abilities include; Agility, stealth, metal-tearing talons and Incisors, 2 Hidden missile hatches, and a whip-like tail. SnowStrike is on constant patrol for danger due to her own failures and fears, it’s come to the point that some don’t even recognize SnowStrike in her bot form.

SnowStrike is INTUITIVE; She knows what she does, and why she does it. She’s hard to read, her body language is always so elusive. But deep down, somewhere behind her optics, she does show feelings, and rarely, empathy.

It’s no secret SnowStrike is a Deception. She’s incredibly loyal. She believes every word she’s been fed by her Lord, and takes it to Spark. She’s willing to do anything for Megatron and the Deception cause.

Despite SnowStrike’s sleek and well taken care of exterior, she is heavily damaged from her years. Most notably, her internal Fan is broken, making her more prone to overheating. To combat this, SnowStrike has to open her intake to allow a thick gray smoke to vent, controlling her temperature.

SnowStrike isn’t always so serious, she does have a more light-hearted side. She is Playful, and enjoys puzzles, writing, and helping out her comrades and friends. She likes sharing stories with like-minded bots, and even documenting.

I have to mention, SnowStrike’s always been treated more of as a Pet, rather than her own being. Despite her high intelligence, she’s used as a Creature of destruction and cruelty exclusively. Often chained up, muzzled, and discarded when not needed. This doesn’t mean she necessarily always listens to what she’s told to do, getting her in trouble often. She’s very Defiant and wild towards anyone who isn’t her direct leader.

SnowStrike is Aware of other species, such as Humans. SnowStrike is not fond of humans at all, she can’t communicate in any human language. She only speaks her native language, and she can express herself thru incomprehensible growls or roars.

I don’t want to share much about her past as I’d enjoy telling thru art. What I’ll leave you with is that she wasn’t always a Deception, and she wasn’t always the most intelligent Dinobot.

..Just another cog in the Deception machine.

Ps; I made her for a “what if the deceptions won / fallen Optimus” Au, but you can use her for whatever you want. Credit me of course.

@jammertrax, 2025.

[kalolasart]

I designed a sparkling

Her name is Lunarstreak and she's an Optimus x Elita next gen. I decided to ignore the "doomed by the narrative" part. Even though her design is based more on the TF one versions I like to imagine her in the TF prime universe since it's the one I'm the most familiar with. (just erase her nose...)

Her vehicle mode is a purple/bluish Ferrari F50 💕

[gelu-the-babosa-multiversal]

I just forgot that I gave it to Cody and Priscilla like 5 kids...

George and Frankie have 5 too...

Like what I'm even implying here??????

[aquaioart]

If I tag my friend in this. I’m quite sure they’ll rip my head off. (Lovingly of course)

Ironhide, Ironhide, Ironhide. It's the Ironhide Height Chart, everyone! Ironhide did not show up as much as I thought he would, Ratchet too. There's only like 8 universes where he shows up (in a meaningful way).

Quick Disclaimer, if any of the images look weird, it's because I had to stitch a few separate images together to create a full body shot of the character. And Yes, I am aware the TFO ones look stupid, these characters show up in background shots or for like 3 seconds tops. I didn't have anything else.

Here are links to my Bumblebee Chart, my Optimus Chart, my Megatron Chart, my Shockwave Chart, and my Ratchet Chart. For future reference, all these charts will be filed under my "Transformers Height Charts" tag and my "aka the adventures of a..." tag.

Master Post

Explanations and Sources below the cut.

RID 2001 - ~13 feet (TFWiki, lucky me, this one was easy)

Unicron Trilogy Energon - ~13 feet (No source, I got this number by assuming Optimus's height between Energon and Cybertron was the same and then comparing Ironhide to Optimus. For the uneducated, the Unicron Trilogy has given each of its 3 seasons separate names and 3 separate art styles.)

Gen 1 - ~16 feet (TFWiki, No additional comments)

WFCT - ~16 feet (No Source, but this design is identical to Gen 1 so who am I to complicate things.)

One V1 - ~16 feet (Pre-cog.*deep breath* Okay, so this movie doesn't have any actual numbers, aside for some bullshit ones from a Walmart Promotional. I've been using the Knightverse Optimus number as a baseline since these were at one point said to be vaugly canon to each other. And the Bumblebee-Optimus scaling is the same. I got this number by comparing Ironhide to Optimus. Idk man, this movie has made me develop a twitch.)

Animated - (Animated has no actual numbers, but the lovely @phoenix-inanis has provided a frankly astounding resource with their own calculations for the heights of all the TFA characters. Go look at it, it's wonderful -> https://phoenix-inanis.notion.site/TFA-Height-Chart-f6ad2960ca8c4c5b859ee4958723aaa4?pvs=4.)

One V2 - ~18 feet (Post-cog. Again, no numbers, plus I can't actually find a full body picture of this form. My method of "knocking off or adding two feet" has been pretty accurate so far (I got Bumblebee right), so I'm just going to keep doing it. God, my head hurts...)

Bayverse V1 - 22 feet (TFWiki, mr bay is my favorite he gives me heights for free)

Bayverse V2 - 24 feet (TFWIki, yes, for some reason, Ironhide just grew a few feet in between the second and third movies. This happens a lot)

Aligned Cont. WF/FOC - ~25 feet (So, I had nothing, and I had to look into the trailers for the game to get fucking anything. I was able to get a comparison between him and Optimus, and I was able to guestimate, but it was not perfect, and I probably need to actually play the games to get a better comparison. Also, once more, ALC coming in with the steel chair and snatching first place for being freakishly tall. why does this keep happening?)
