We always see Autobots and Decepticons fighting each other, or strengthening their wartime positions.
What people sometimes forget is that all Cybertronians can't transform - or at least that was the way it was initially written.
The robots that revolted against Quintesson slavery mastering them developed the techniques, and then the most proficient military-types began using it to dominate the planet after their victory, thus becoming the Decepticons.
We all know the Autobots rebelled, developing their own fighting force that could transform.
What we don't know is what do these robots do when they're not fighting?
There must be architects, engineers, construction workers, and obviously medics and so forth.
Do they also have artists and entertainers? I'm sure there is a news casting agency.
Do they have residences, homes, and such? How do they live?
If in human science, we dream about becoming immortal by transferring ourselves into machines, do Transformers create biological lifeforms to transfer their own consciousness into in order to become more mortal? After contact with earth, are there robots that want to become human?
If at least the Autobots have representation of both genders, isn't a date to a drive-in movie a bit redundant for them? I mean it takes "parking" to a whole different level.
Is being Optimus Prime a full-time job, or does "Orion Pax" ever wonder what it would be like to come out and play? What would he be doing with his life if he hadn't wound up as the Autobot leader?
Hot Rod complains watching a shuttle land is dull. So is fly fishing on earth his idea of excitement? Obviously street racing has its appeal. But with Blurr around, wouldn't constantly losing get old?
What are your thoughts on these matters?
