Transformers feats/discussion

Piranacon can destroy the Empire State Building with his powerful blows and also wipe out a city if he is not stopped.

And he is to be right: Just before midnight, life suddenly enters the gigantic, metallic-shining statue. SNAP TRAP transforms into the super-robot PIRRANACON, and takes course for the city. Firing wildly, the heavyweight colossus stomps through the streets. And his blasters are emitting neutron rays that eradicate all life...

"It's unbelievable!" rages LANDFILL "He's on a mission to lay waste to the city. And during this, the other Decepticons will surely attack different targets."

It is so. Via AUTOBOT-radio, they receive news from the Arc about the infiltrating DECEPTICONS in the refineries and space travel laboratories, leaving a trail of destruction there, too.

"OPTIMUS PRIME! What shall we do?" SCOOP's face is marked by fear and resentment. "We protect the humans" the Autobots hear from the voice of their POWERMASTER. "But we can't be everywhere! And it would be dangerous to face the DECEPTICONS by ones. First, we stop SNAP TRAP. And then we'll see!"

The colossus, certainly not expecting resistance, comes to a halt under the massive defense efforts of the AUTOBOTS. Before he brings the Empire State Building to collapse with one last mighty blow, the SPARKLER MINIBOTS hang on to him like burdocks and wrangle the dangerous blasters and laser-systems from the lumbering SNAP TRAP. Immediately, SCOOP and QUICKMIX are at the ready, and lead him to fall.

comic-magazin covers are hilariously deranged

in fact the stories themselves are unhinged pretty much

I noticed something about this ROTF PS2 game feat where Optimus stops Star Harvester's beam by bullrushing himself and Fallen into the beam, in which Optimus tanks the resultant explosion.
Timestamp: 7:20

I showed this feat before. However, I didn't notice that after that cutscene, the loading screen has a text saying that Earth will see another day since Optimus stopped Fallen and the Harvester.

This of course means that the PS2 version of the Star Harvester would have destroyed the Sun within a day. This shows the power of the beam that Optimus tanked.

Which issue of which publication is the scan from?

looks like this is from IDW’s First Strike event, don’t recall the exact issue but the arc is only 5~ chapters or so iirc

Optimus holds Blackout back with one hand.

Ironhide withstands Brawl/Devastator's blows and then easily punches his head, rips his arm and pierces his chest with his blows, while Optimus kills Blackout with his sword.

Ironhide can withstand fire from the finest military tanks, with absolutely no effect on Ironhide:

Military Soldier: No effect! I repeat, no effect! Whatever Ironhide is made of, it is built to withstand all our efforts!

After which, with one blow, he throws up a military vehicle and lifts and throws a tank.

Brawl/Devastator's strength is immense, he can destroy buildings with his punches, seemingly single-handedly devastate worlds, destroy skyscrapers, and cause destruction in city blocks with his ground punch.

Transformers commercial on a pyramid. Funny if you have in mind the story between Tf and pyramids.

In the AOE mobile game, Galvatron can build a Star Harvester, presumably with help from his army.

In a battle in space, Barricade accelerates to "nearly full sublight speed" and slams into Bumblebee. I guess full sublight might mean relativistic? If so, damn this is pretty OP.

Another interesting novel statement.

According to Dylan Gould, Autobot/Decepticon war destabilized the Transformers' galaxy, destroying their planet and half its stars, and that's why Decepticons brought Cybertron to Earth's space. It seems there were no resources left in their own galaxy. Make of this what you will.

THEY DESTROYED HALF THE GALAXY??????

I think this book predates IDW's mainline saying their war did that too lmao

 

[Hmm1010]

I think this is also a good feat.Again in DOTM novel adaptation, Starscream damages Ark which has a good durability feat/statement.

The Ark's impact is stated to be sufficient to level several cities and possibly even create a seismic event that would split a continent had it hit Earth.




Ark's frame survives it like in the movie, albeit with some significant damages like gaping holes in its hull.


However, like in the IDW comic, Starscream still manages to damage the Ark. He destroys the ship's stabilizer when be shoots at its aftwing, which sends shudders down the whole ship and it looses control.



Unlike the comic book, the damage he inflicts to the Ark is lesser here, but still I think his blast would scale to/downscale from Ark's durability.
