Just remembered, rereading Stormbringer I saw this

"personal integrity shields"
In G2 we see the Twilight also has structural integrity fields holding it together even as it is being consumed by the Swarm, so Cybertronians DO have this technology and have had it for decades.
Transformers: War for Cybertron (Xbox 360/PS3/PC)
All Cybertronians possessed a force field surrounding their structure though these shields would quickly collapse if subject to sustained firepower. Cybertronians could don overshields to enhance their own shielding systems.
Soundwave had a force field within Zeta Prime's holding cell in Kaon prison. He was able to launch his Mini-Cons through the force field but was forced to leave it to recover them when they were sufficiently damaged by the Autobot rescue party.
man i just cant stop winningTransformers: Fall of Cybertron (Xbox 360/PS3/PC)
By the time that the Ark had launched, automatically recharging overshields had entered widespread use. When Bumblebee was knocked into a brief period of stasis lock when the Nemesis attacked, his overshields were one of the first of his systems to recover.

Q: Dear Vector Prime,
Who was the skull-faced being Optimus Prime encountered when he journeyed into the Matrix to learn of the Hate Plague?

A: Dear Ancient Augurer,
Why do you assume it is a being? The Matrix is not bound by such logic!
Easily scales over Megatron and Dynabots, stops a drill that destroys the earth's core, withstands blows from Omega Supreme, which can destroy asteroids with one blow.I made this blog about Mazinger vs Transformers.

Mazinger Z vs Transformers feats.
A quartet of hooded figures observe various universes. One of them (Go Nagai) connects the Mazinger Z universe with the G1 Transformers universe. Boss Borot fights and defeats a hungry Grimlock in dinosaur form. Boss Borot grabs Grimlock and...onelastforum.com
Then, this Mazinger must be stronger that the one from the anime/manga or this Devastator weaker than the G1 cartoon/comics.Easily scales over Megatron and Dynabots, stops a drill that destroys the earth's core, withstands blows from Omega Supreme, which can destroy asteroids with one blow.
in some episodes, like The Core (where the drill feat is from) devastator is pretty much a match for the entire rest of the decepticons at once, megatron, soundwave, the seeker trio, the cassettes, reflectors, all of themEasily scales over Megatron and Dynabots, stops a drill that destroys the earth's core, withstands blows from Omega Supreme, which can destroy asteroids with one blow.
i think this generally happens in crossovers so its not one side just bludgeoning the other into pasteThen, this Mazinger must be stronger that the one from the anime/manga or this Devastator weaker than the G1 cartoon/comics.
Was looking at some author statements from Jesse Wittenrich as he wrote Epilogue Two where the SG Multiverse is introduced, some interesting tidbits
^The Shattered Glass multiverse is by word of god a different multiverse from the positive one. We already kinda new this but it's not "directly" stated in the story so it's just good to have another confirmation.
^
Obviously for the purposes of this hobby we don't take this at face value, but he even says headcanon is canon lol
^This one kinda disappoints me specifically because Wittenrich was an architect of the Shroud. I like the 13 being gods, it's what makes them cool. You could just not write yours that way! You didn't have to make it impossible for anyone else to do that lol
He also claims at one point that The One was affected by The Shroud which I am just going to ignore because it's not consistent with anything or even remotely suggested in the comic, and The One was allegedly the source of the golden (multiversal) power in the manga post-Shroud.
Although post-shroud media is largely ignoring this so it's a moot point.
It's also at odds with him wanting literally every interpretation to be valid but hey man I just document this shit and try to connect the dotsi do not get why tf writers insist on this even when they write shit that directly contradicts it wtf
every interpretation means hyper omniversal unicron i winIt's also at odds with him wanting literally every interpretation to be valid but hey man I just document this shit and try to connect the dots
i hate when writers and even fans hate certain things so they decide to make it so NOBODY ELSE CAN WRITE IT EVER AGAINIt's also at odds with him wanting literally every interpretation to be valid but hey man I just document this shit and try to connect the dots
i will point out starscream is way faster than mach 2.8 so him dodging photon beams doesnt seem too outlandish; he and multiple other characters regularly cross the entire galaxy in the show, so he can get pretty insanely fastI made this blog about Mazinger vs Transformers.

it was a huge aspect of Cyberverse and now the Legacy toys, so it solely just seems to be a funpub comic team mandate that other teams of the series are either unaware of or ignoring. Ima be honest I’ll also be very surprised if it doesn’t show up in Skybound eventually too. All big comics inevitably touch on it at some point. Even Rise of the Beast’s promo mentioned Unicron as a multiversal threat and the movies are the thing that gets the most money kicked their way besides the toysi hate when writers and even fans hate certain things so they decide to make it so NOBODY ELSE CAN WRITE IT EVER AGAIN
i do hope the multiverse concept stays at least somewhat prevalent and not just in japan man
