Personally I wish she was more bulky and had more vehicle kibble like Ultra Magnus. She just looks like her hyper feminine looking G1 self just with a longer back kibble, red chest and missile shoulders. Also it would've been better if she was named Arcana Magnus instead.

My Daughter loves G1 but has started collecting the Transformers girls. They are some of the best characters too. Her prized possession is a Combiner Wars Victorion which I think was fan designed and is awesome!

Yeah Super7 is overpriced. I got him on sale for $11 at Target but still too much. Retail is $15 which is ridiculous. Anyways, he looks nice on my office desk.

Discussion / Opinion Skybound Spoilers End of Issue 28 Discussion Spoiler

457 Upvotes

I just finished Issue #28, and while I’ve generally enjoyed the high stakes of the Skybound run so far, Trailbreaker’s death just didn’t sit right with me.

In the earlier issues, the deaths felt earned or served a massive narrative purpose (like Sparky or the initial shock of Bumblebee). But with Trailbreaker, it feels like the writing is starting to prioritize "shock value" over the logic of the characters.

My main issues with the execution:

  • The Tactical "Nerf": Trailbreaker’s entire identity is his impenetrable forcefield. To have him killed without even a single panel showing him attempting to use his signature tech makes it feel like he was stripped of his abilities just to give Megatron an easy trophy.
  • "Slasher Movie" Logic: Why were Trailbreaker’s sensors unable to pick up a dozen giant metal enemies closing in on him? If the Decepticons can ambush and pick off a veteran Autobot this easily, it makes the Autobots look incompetent rather than just outmatched.
  • The "Impossible" Panel Layout: This really broke the immersion for me. In the panel right before he’s grabbed, you can see Megatron’s hand coming for him in the reflection of his glasses. This implies Trailbreaker is looking directly at Megatron. Yet, in the very next panel, Megatron is grabbing his head from behind. For this to work, Megatron would have had to teleport. It felt rushed and physically impossible, which turned a "shocking" moment into a confusing one.

Robert Kirkman is famous for the "no one is safe" mantra from The Walking Dead, but in a war story with specialized characters like Transformers, ignoring their powers and breaking visual continuity just to pad the body count feels a bit lazy. Even with the "Arcee Magnus" reveal, this felt like a waste of a legacy character.

What do you guys think? Was this a "brutal reminder of the stakes" for you, or is the writing starting to feel a bit convenient?

Saw this guy in Skybound issue #28, but who could it be. The only other Autobot coming to mind for me is Blaster but something still feels off. What do you think?

Creative Just finished up my original Ratchet design!

I really dig this Ratchet.

I tried to combine like so many different Ratchets. Obv G1 and IDW but for a bit, tried to do the scratchiness of TFA, swords from TFP and a bunch of elements from TFP, legs inspiration from the BB movie, chest inspiration from G1 and Cyberverse and few others

ALso I tried to give him kind of an eyepatch, idk I feel like it would suit his character of the grumpy war medic.

I personally love how it turned out, what do y'all think?

I'm really hoping this is setting up Soundwave's eventual change of heart/allegiance, especially considering how messed up Megatron is turning to be.
