    Some ideas for this story!
    1: maybe Sari gives Elita some organic food, which tells us if she has a sense of taste!
    2: her confronting Sentinel along with Optimus and her rebuffing Sentinel's claims of being a monster
    3: IN a homage to Airachnid from transformers prime, she does get an alt mode based off a helicopter
    4: Similar to how Bulkhead takes an interest in arts, maybe Elita could take up music

    Honestly, I think Elita-1 taking Bumblebee’s place might be a good call, as he’s the one bot in the main cast who doesn’t really learn his lessons and is somewhat inconsequential and sometimes detrimental to the whole thing, not having hidden depths and tragic backstory like the others do. In particular encouraging Sari’s impulsiveness and teasing Bulkhead which ends up leading to trouble for everyone. Even his decision in Trial of Megatron to leave the elite guard was because of his friends and time on earth, which wouldn’t happen here.
    By contrast, Elita-1 being transformed into a spider, but being rescued before she can wallow in self hatred and join the Decepticons, is rife with potential. Her friendship with the crew and her time on earth could allow Elita can learn to see her organic side as a helpful part of her rather than something to be rejected (especially since nobody seems to mind that that she’s techno organic). This would allow her to the one who connects with Sari the most, especially after the girl’s true nature is revealed. Even before that, I could see Elita becoming the mother figure that Sari never had, especially when she has to stay with the Autobots during Powell’s takeover.
    It could very well she ends up being responsible for the Dinobot’s rehabilitation, actually encouraging them to be proper members of society and an effective fighting force for good rather than taking advantage of their infatuation of her like in canon. Though the rivalry between Optimus and Grimlock might be a problem.
    Sentinel being a Decepticon does throw a few wrinkles into things, especially the episodes he would’ve appeared in. It’s likely that Bumblebee would take his place on the elite guard (and hopefully not be as big as jerk about it due to his lack of history with the other bots aside from Bulkhead, maybe even genuinely befriending them) as well as the possibility of Wasp taking his place after his escape, framing or even killing him, and maybe even working with Shockwave, completely unaware of the truth behind his incarceration.
    There’s definitely going to be some drama between Sentinel, Optimus and Elita, Sentinel blaming the other two for blowing his chances to join the Elite Guard, while they point out that he joined the Decepticons and buttkissed his way into Megatron’s inner circle. He was probably planning to backstab him before Starscream took his chance and I could see a rivalry between the two. Not to mention his hatred of organics might make him the most dangerous, since he’ll have no reason to hold back against them.

    Some notes: In the original canon the reason that Sentinel went on to be part of the Elite Guard is because he essentially lied about what happened and Optimus protecting his friend went along with the lie. In this version of events since Elita-One would be there to give her version of the story as well I don't think Optimus would still be kicked out of the Academy or given command of the Orion. Sentinel would have been given the Orion command instead.
    Elita-One I think would would be put in prison and/or quarantined given the population's fear of organics. She wouldn't be allowed to roam free either way. Optimus would either end up on the path Sentinel original went down being second in command to Ultra Magnus or would help Elita-One escape causing both of them to join the Decepticons.
    It's weird that in this new reality you put Bulkhead on the Orion crew and not Bumblebee considering they were both on the crew for the same reason and that reason wouldn't have happened if Sentinel Minor wasn't their drill Sergent. I imagine that if Optimus had been the one to continue in the Elite Guard then he would have been Optimus Minor during the events of Boot Camp. With Optimus there rather than Sentinel I think Shockwave would have been caught as the real traitor rather than Wasp and both Bumblebee and Bulkhead would have graduated into the Elite Guard. Wasp and Ironhide likely would have ended up on the Orion cause they weren't really evil but they were kind of jerks.
    Bulkhead might still be assigned there because of being the leading expert in Space Bridge technology... some how... since they were a Space Bridge repair crew I guess Bulkhead was always going to end up there even if he's now wearing Elite Guard stripes.
    Prowl however should still be there as well since Optimus, Sentinel, and Elita's back story doesn't effect the reason why Prowl was assigned to the Orion.
    BTW there was apparently official canceled season 4 plans for an episode set in an alternate universe where Optimus did save Elita and as a result he was infected by the alien spiders instead of her. It's not her mimic power that caused it it's their venom that did that. So there was suppose to be a story where they essentially switched roles. Optimus became technorganic spider Decepticon, Sentinel Prime took command of the Orion, and Elita Prime became Ultra Magnus' second in command of the Elite Guard.
    Would be interesting if there's a third alternate reality where Sentinel becomes Tarantulus since they didn't use the name for Optimus, Optimus becomes Ultra Magnus' second in command, and Elita-One becomes the commander of the Orion.
    So many things can change just by swapping those three roles around cause the way Optimus or Elita would handle being a Minor in Boot Camp would be totally different. Honestly I don't think Shockwave would even make it past his first day if Elita-One was there instead of Sentinel since her copy ability would have given her access to a second robot and vehicle mode making her instantly realize he's a Decepticon before they even know to look for a spy in the first place. Instead of going down the line asking "What can you do" and having them demonstrate their abilities like Sentinel or Optimus would she'd just use her copy ability on each of them to test out their powers for herself. Shockwave's cover is kind of depended on the Autobots not being aware of the full extent of his abilities.

    (Spoilers for the second of TFA)
    I know that Bee didn't get his carrier ruined by Sentinel in this but I hope he gets a part in the series one day, as well as Wasp, Jazz, the twins, Longarm and Ironhide as well, either as part of the Elite Guard, something more like the canon of TFA or something else.

    I hope you'll continue this. For me I feel like Elita's arc could go two ways. One, (the most realistic one) she'll eventually come around to accepting her new form, especially after learning of Sari's dual identity is like hers, making the two more like sisters than ever before. Now for the second one, the AllSpark might be able to restore Elita back to her original state as a way to save her when she puts her life in the line in one of the finale's and gets a flying alternate form as a reference to Airachnid from TFP.

    What if the Autotroopers were in Transformers Prime ?
    It always bothers me that the autobots never had any backup.
    Aside from Cyberverse and the Wfc and Foc games , the autobots never had any troops to counter the Vehicons .
    It would be fun to see then being able to go against the cons the same way they did back on cybertron .
    Also, the the autotroopers do have some potencial as characters. Since they would be on earth , Optimus would instruct then to learn about the planet and its people .
    Because of this , some would feel encouraged to repaint/modified thenselves to show some individuality , kinda like the Clone Troopers from Star Wars (heck they could even use the models of the troopers in the Revenge of the Fallen game like the omnibots and protectobots who were used to make generics so here's a way to use those designs).
    It would be fun to see then interact with other humans, manly the US soldiers and the kids, which would be pretty fun. Imagine Miko convincing a small group of Autotroopers to go around town to teach then about human culture and they start acidentally cause trouble like in the 2007 movie, when the autobots were breaking Sam's backyard and walking into the power cables causing a blackout.
    What do you think of this idea ?

    This [STORYSHIFT] definitely has a big ripple effect as the careers of the 3 Cadets together we're expelled, sentinel's duties as a sergeant were prevented ,so best guess Bumblebee and Wasp accomplish their dreams of becoming Is rookies of the elite guard.
    So we have an Autobots Elita one Is with arachnids powers taking bumblebee's place In team Prime adventures on earth with some Shifts in other characters.
    However, this Domino effect of loss of prestige, along with his xenophobia of organix, pushes sentinel to his lowest point he's ever been on (unlike the original) he lives up to his movie incarnations and betrays the cause once held since he gains nothing and becomes the very thing Optimus feared his best friend would go down: A selfish power seeking Decepticon, who's xenophobia is embraced into racial Hatred to all organics enough to kill civilian humans without a second glance (😈 Not too different from Starscream).

    • @tompotter8703
      @tompotter8703 Місяць тому +2

      There’s also the fact that Blitzwing might not be a triple changer and Shockwave’s disguise of Longarm might not have infiltrated the elite guard, as supplemental material reveals Blackarachnia had a hand and both of these things.
      And if Sentinel didn’t join the elite guard, it might be that organic phobia isn’t as prevalent on Cybertron as it was in canon (which would likely be because studying Elita-1’s condition might give some insight into organics, so there is less of an unknown factor). Bumblebee and/or Wasp could take his place and interact with a former classmate Bulkhead.
      Also, probably no Waspinator either, though if Shockwave does succeed in framing Wasp, “Where is thy sting?” might have an added wrinkle since he might take the identity of an elite guard member rather than some lonely repair bot. He might even work with Shockwave, completely under the belief it was “Bumblebot’s” fault.

Then Megatron can betray and offline him when he’s no longer of use. I’m also trying to imagine his design in this what if. Like does he have something similar to the power master armor where he’s closer to the same height as Lugnut and Blitzwing? And even if he doesn’t then it can be played to comedic effect like when Lugnut was pushing around Shockwave.

    What if all of the children of the Z fighters were born in future trunks timeline but not future Cell timeline.
    Both Cell his timeline and someone from Future trunks timeline or multiple people go into the main timeline using the time machines.
    Now in Cell timeline is exactly the same as Canon so no actual people were born in it that's why he's able to go back in time.
    However in Future trunks timeline all of the children of the Z fighters were born.
    And yes that means that 17 and 18 turn good and uub is alive even 16 is alive and good and new or old Android took the place 13,14,15,19,20 how about this 20 is super computer of doctor gero. And this Future trunks timeline is a alternate version because the Future trunks of Cells timeline is the one that came to Future trunks timeline and that's why it changed so much. And yes that does mean Majin Buu was the release and kid Buu was killed in Future trunks timeline. And Android 13 14 15 19 and 20 did not get sent out until 14 years after buu was free and yes Majin Buu was at the same time he did in Cannon in Age 774. And that means age 781 is 1131415 19 and 20 arrived and attacked. Which makes it necessary for them to go back in time to the Day Frieza and King cold appeared on Earth just like the other trunks appeared on that day they figured to send the person or people the same day. To warn the Z fighters of the future Androids and about 17 and 18 and 16 that way the prepared for everything I told them about other things that happened. What includes Majin Buu and how 16, 17, 18 and Buu turn good and kill the evil kid Buu.
