The Stunticons in Earthspark!

[cutekittenlady]

Cracky transformers idea but imagine Breakdown asking, of all people, the other stunticons how to get someone (*cough*KnockOut*cough*) to like like him. Or, yknow, just how to ask them out on a date.

Inevitable chaos and very bad advice ensues.

ALRIGHT EVERYONE

I did a rough TFP design for Motormaster, Dragstrip, Wildrider and Deadend for my fanfic

-be warned all of these were scribbled with a ballpoint pen with zero sketching or rough drafting beforehand-

MOTORMASTER

Truck, doesn’t use his visor I just couldn’t be assed to draw optics - his energon sword magnetises to his back, he keeps his iconic hood and his servos and details are pink. He’s bigger than the others

DRAGSTRIP

Like Breaky his alt is an armoured car instead of a racer. Yellow gold ish finish, uses his visor - tire wings on his back

WILDRIDER

Little tire winglets. Armoured car. Doesn’t use his visor

Doorwings are always dropped low, uses both visor and battle mask nearly all the time. Although usually keeps the mask off in the base or with his gestalt. Armoured vehicle

The rest who don’t follow me here get the character designs next update <3

My take on a Transformers Animated

Menasor

[randomposts-27]

Motormaster: ok ok. Just, tell me again why you need it

Dragstrip: cuz it’s super important that we renew it, trust me boss!

Motormaster: what’s it called again?

Breakdown: Disney+

Wilderrider: it’s super cool, all the cool, wild and crazy stuff is on it, too bad Shockwave stopped paying for it

Motormaster: we’ll if he said no then why should I?

Dragstrip: cuz of that

Deadend: I like the sad donkey, he comforts me

Motormaster, emotional: ……I’ll oh every credit!!

woops forgot to post part 4

[milkcartondoodle]

I love how mean they are

[wott11]

Started with my just wanting to give CV Soundwave SG's headband

It spiraled

I'm honestly just a sucka for kneck scarfs

This also lead to me thinking that the scarfs are Cyberverse's version of Rodimus stars

So uh rest of the group

Also an excuse to dress up Clobber in a big pink bow

Transformer Reforged: The Stunticons 🏁🏎

Each of them are supposed to represent a different type of motor sport! And MotorMaster is their hauler / boss.

Deadend is Nascar / stock car racing. Breakdown is street racing. Wildrider is demolition derby and Dragstrip is drag racing (funny car drag racing specifically)

Though they each represent a type of motor sport, they are not limited to that singular type. On Cybertron they all competed in various types of races together. On earth, they chose forms they felt came most naturally.

MotorMaster is still a work in progress. Trying to figure out how I want his alt mode to work and if his trailer becomes part of him so he doesn't have to just leave it around 🤔 meaning he'll be a pretty big fella! This is his full alt mode atm ⤵️ he carries the boys around.

He's just trying to get his conjunx-to-be to meet his family 😔

More reviving a wreck drip feeding as I write the fic.

Deadend and Wildrider are both dead prior to the events of Prime with Deadend being the first casualty and thus how the stunticons learn just how deep their gestalt bond ran. However his death has deeper far reaching consequences, and not just because it rendered them unable to properly transform into Menasor without a "stand in" combiner (something they all hated).

Deadend I tend to imagine as being the largely mental member of the team. Motormaster was their gang leader and big idea guy, but it was Dead End who actually sorted out the logistics and plans. He was no genius and had no military training let alone a formal education (tho he's self educated) but he was the closest thing the stunticons had to a "smart guy". Unfortunately he also deferred to Motormasters decisions A LOT and tended to not push his luck when it came to disagreeing with their leaders.

This was, in part, because Motormaster became way more violent and intimidating as the war went on, but also because of an emotional conflict. See, Deadend and Motormaster were actually pretty close pre-war to the point of probably being best friends. Though neither of them would have said that part out loud.

As for the others, Deadend and Wildrider were a surprising pair that actually got on pretty okay. Deadend and Motormaster met him in the gladiator pits when they were both in dire need of funds and after a rough start they wound up teaming up to make some serious shanix on gladiator gambling.

Dragstrip and Deadend were a near polar opposite in terms of relationships. He didn't hate Dragstrip but its like when your friend has another friend they're always hanging out with but you don't particularly consider a friend. It was sorta like that. Pre-war the two are near polar opposites in terms personality with Dragstrip being way more vulgar, more emotional rather than intellectual, and their relationship with Motormaster being different as well.

Finally there was a healthy respect between Deadend and Breakdown. Breakdown was closer friends with Dragstrip than with him, but there were times where Dragstrips pre-war energy and Wildriders, er, wild personality were too much for him and Deadend was the calmest person for him to get some quiet time with.

Deadends classic depressive attitude mostly develops during the war in response to all the violence and the drastic change in his relationship with Motormaster with their friendship basically falling apart. Sadly by the time he dies in the war, he's largely convinced the rest of his team wouldn't miss him or be effected by his loss. Which, sadly, is drastically incorrect considering his death is the beginning of the end for the stunticons.

Being the human trapped with the Stunticons means

1) Being the therapy animal for Breakdown. He's the first one that decided to keep you because your kind voice helped him to calm down from one of his episodes. You're nice and gentle with him, you have the patience of a saint, and you find the big guy just a poor soul that needs professional help ASAP. You need to remind him to not squish you so hard, because really he can lose himself sometimes, and you're the one blink of sanity that keeps him away from losing his sanity.

2) Have to deal with Dragstrip bubbling about how great and cool he is. You made the mistake of genuinely complimenting him about how fast and cool he looks, and that was the end of you. At first it's like, "Nah, squishy thing gonna stay here? Gah." And now he is like a child who desperately calls his parents to see the trick he had learn. Did he mentioned how great of a runner he's? Five times? Okay one more because you need to learn the secrets. He steals you from Breakdown, wich end up usually with the poor Con following Dragstrip everywhere to get you back because he could kill you and he doesn't want that.

2) Having some actually nice time with Deadend, actually responding to his almost depressing speeches about the pointlessness of existence with your own, making him actually question many things that he had believed till now. He'll even ask you to help him polish where he can't reach, since you're smaller and your eyes can detect the smallest particles on him. If you want to save yourself, run to him; he'll protect you from the others…except their boss, but it's not like you can escape him at all.

3) Being in constant fear for your life when Wildrider felt bored, because when he felt bored he wanted to smash things, and you're so freaking tempting. He loves scaring you; he likes roaring his motor when you believe he's not even around, he loves walking so near you to the point he could actually squish you under his pedes, and he loves suggesting all the ways he could just make your brain smash in your cranium by driving so fast that your body can't handle it. He loved that fearing expression; he'll never grow bored of that! But… he likes when you laugh at his antics too, and when you actually find his moves sick and compliment him. He gets confused…

4) Being the bargain chip for Motormaster. He's used to using the weakness of his team against them, but now he's found another way to motivate them. Taking you away, genuinely making them scared for your life when he dropped you from his servos, only to catch you mid-air and laugh at their scared screech (Wildrider: That's my job!). He likes using you as a way to make them cooperative, making them work as he pleases, using times with you to make the move faster. And you, little thing, you're a curious little one! When they combine, Menasor is not united like the other combiners, but now they seem in sync! Was it all your doing? J He must admit he likes that spark in your voice; you're…interesting. He likes that you could not stand for yourself and how much he loves to feast on your fear, but you would dare to stand against him to defend one of his boys. Such a little curious thing you are…
