Now at the end of the episode that world was destroyed by Galvatron. Now my point is, if there more than one world similar to Cybertron, then we can have the BM Cybertron and Primus, without any contradiction, and yes an ongoing continuity, but lacking af some explanation. Well that's my opinion, so what do you think?

And of course even without that stuff back then you made several Pretender characters really cool and memorable characters anyways (bluddy and carni obviously :) ) Now if hasbro can be convinced to attempt a Pretender revamp of those two characters using modern toy technology. Ok am living in dream land there... Sorry for nearly always talking about your old work. Your more recent stuff is great too.

I was never hugely happy with the idea of Cybertron having once been an organic world. Not sure yet how much (if any) of Beast Machines will be incorporated into the IDW-verse.

In the face of crippling shortages of energon, they downsized or evolved in new forms. Maximals and Predacons really are descended from the Autobots and Decepticons.

One assumes this kind of technology evolved sometime after the Pax Cybertronia, possibly, as you say, derived from Pretender tech. But this has never been overtly stated to my knowledge.

One last Q. Where do the Maximals and Predacons ultimately come from?, are they really "descendants" of the Autobots and the Decepticons from Cybertron, or do they come from other planet (maybe Animatros aka Jungle planet from the TF Cybertron anime). In the Beast Machines CGI series its explored that Cybertron was indeed a "normal" planet and not artificial as it was always stated in all the previous series, but in the Galaxy Force/Cybertron anime we discovered that PRIMUS was indeed Cybertron all along. don't you think that there are some strange things happening here?, shall we have somewhere down the road your definitive version of all these stories?. Hope you will and thanks for listening to my words. Your're the law at TF's mythos. Thank you.

Furman. i agree!. thanks anyway. Do you think that at some point, the Tech involved to create artificial Fur, skin, scales, or maybe plant lifelike appearance (like the Botanica character had in BM) was evolved from the Pretender technology or is it also an ability common to the Transformer race?, as far as i know they can only adapt to mechanical modes.

If you want to ask questions here, I'll do my best to answer, but please understand I simply haven't the time to get into individual e-chats.
