    Alternate Modes QOTD
    Question Of The Day

    Major Spoilers Question of the Day: Alternate Modes Edition

    Matthew PetersonBy Matthew PetersonMarch 15, 20191 Comment1 Min Read

    The latest reboot of the Transformers is upon us, and as listeners of Dueling Review can tell you, the first ish takes place entirely in the past of Cybertron.  We don’t see the alternate modes of Megatron, Bumblebee or Optimus Prime Orion Pax in this issue, but we can presume they’re not a Walther P-38, 70s-era VW Beetle or a Freighliner cabover, which is a worry.  Major Spoilers EiC Stephen opined that if they’re NOT in the familiar transformation modes, they’re just not going to appeal to old-school fans, leading to today’s TSCHE-CHU-CHU-CHU-TSCHE query…

    The MS-QOTD (pronounced, as always, “misquoted”) wants to stress that that is the canonical, official spelling of the transformation noise, per Hasbro, asking: Are the Transformer truly the Transformers to you if they have different Alternate Modes?

    Once upon a time, there was a young nerd from the Midwest, who loved Matter-Eater Lad and the McKenzie Brothers... If pop culture were a maze, Matthew would be the Minotaur at its center. Were it a mall, he'd be the Food Court. Were it a parking lot, he’d be the distant Cart Corral where the weird kids gather to smoke, but that’s not important right now... Matthew enjoys body surfing (so long as the bodies are fresh), writing in the third person, and dark-eyed women. Amongst his weaponry are such diverse elements as: Fear! Surprise! Ruthless efficiency! An almost fanatical devotion to pop culture! And a nice red uniform.
