    Regular Starscream:
    Is this an opportunity to usurp Megatron?
    Shattered Starscream:
    Pulls a “get down mister president” at the slightest inconvenience for Megatron.

      @come to order! C.G.:the Cartoon Judge! You forgot about an episode from Challenge of the GoBots - the principal rival of Transformers in the 80s - where the positive universe Guardians are transported to a world where the roles of the Guardians and Renegades are switched, albeit with no differences in color scheme.
      The problem with this is those other franchises that you listed all gave their mirror universes a major media presence in the form of actual TV episodes. Shattered Glass has only ever been a major presence in convention-exclusive media. Nothing in mainstream media, like television or movies. It's an extremely niche part of the franchise that few casual fans know about.

    I really love this series. It goes way further than a lot of what I've read and come to understand and makes one thing very clear: there's more to everything Transformers than meets the eye! Seriously, with so many continuities, conflicting origins, shared names and confusing timelines it seems you can do pretty much whatever you want with the Transformers and it'll be taken as canon. Not necessarily a BAD thing, but very... VERY confusing... which makes these videos all the more enjoyable because they're so ENLIGHTENING! Thank you for producing these. I hope to see a great deal more!

    Mirror Universes are like nerd nip. Even now, I still love the concept most of both the stories and the figures. I mean, we Transformers fans are used to "repaints" and similar minor tweaks. It is annoying for a completionist but sometimes the follow-up ends up being better than the original. Anyway, put it all together, and awesome justifications for such things are most welcome, and Shattered Glass is one such glorious bit of justification. :)

    Man, I've almost watched ALL of these Transformers BASICS videos you've done and they are THE BEST for someone like me... born in 76, got my first Transformer "Gears" in 1984 when my grandparents bought him for me on a road trip... then I saw the tv show that fall... As an 8-year-old boy, I thought I had just stroke GOLD!! haha, ALL my friends at school loved them too!!! Of course, through high school, I secretly keep drawing them, because it was just a passion of mine. So, life passed by and then 2007 came and regardless of how people have criticized​ them, I HAVE LOVED EVERY MOVIE.... just being grateful that we have these things STILL today!! I haven't read the comics since Marvel's first run... maybe the first 60 issues and I STILL HAVE THEM ALL too!! I lost touch of the comics, and have tried here and there, but finding these videos the other day, I've been reading them trying to get caught up and everything is starting to make so much more sense! ANYHOW... KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK AND THANK YOU!!!

    So if Unicron is a multiversal singularity (if i remember correctly), then how is there a universe where Unicron occurs as a good guy? He couldn't be benevolent in one reality and evil in all other realities, could he?

    • @ChrisMcFeely
      @ChrisMcFeely  6 років тому +82

      The events of "Another Light" included Nexus Prime using the Star Saber and Terminus Blade to destroy the concept of multiversal singularities, so that multiple discrete incarnations of those characters can now exist in each universe, and the SG Unicron did not come into being until after that had happened.
      That said, even before that, it's been noted that singularities are subject to the "laws" of any universe they enter - for example, if they entered a two-dimensional universe, they would become 2D. Entering a "negative polarity" universe would logically invert aspects of them for the duration of their stay. It's been noted that because of that singularities refrain from entering "Shattered" universes. The story featuring The Fallen mentioned in this video stresses that he winds up in the SG universe by accident and that the world has never been visited by any of his siblings - but his body also becomes "mirrored," and instead of being constantly on fire, as the picture in the video shows, he becomes coated in ice.

    Back in teh early 2000s there was actually a decently populated fan-run community dedicated to the Transformers "Mirrorverse" as it was referred to. It actually laid out considerable rules for those wanting to do fanfiction and art so as to not go off in weird directions, and people could read stuff from different authors that wouldn't conflict with the overall universe they'd created. It was long before the official Shattered Glass came out, and sadly, it shut down mid 00s, due to the forum costs and other committments. There's a few of the stories still floating about online, though.
    It was exceptionally darker and a lot less light hearted than SG, and in a lot of ways, superior to the SG universe.

Have the Beyond Universe's Cybertronians interact with their alternate counterparts during a story when Shockwave tries to build a new Space Bridge. The Multiversal Space Bridge would be used by Autobots and Decepticons to enlist allies across the Multiverse, full of previous versions of Transformers. We could see Shattered Glass universes full of evil G1 and Animated Autobots and Maximals, and heroic Decepticons and Predacons. The One, the creator of the various versions of Primus and Unicron would be either be the main hostage or antagonist, and either stopping him or saving him would be the final mission or boss of the series.
