Feats

Over the last 25 years the Transformers have appeared in media from the exquisite to the scribbled and been licensed to the responsible and the... Pat Lee. Discussion of all the branches of TF media within!

Anybody know any impressive feats the Transformers did? I'm only talking about the American G1 cartoon. Those I know of:

-Optimus throwing an oil tanker on Megatron
-Megatron surviving being near an explosion that pushed Cybertron out of Earths' orbit
-Optimus took on a bunch of Decepticons and wasn't affected by their weapons (well, not that many, only maybe six or seven of them, this was in TFTM which IIRC does count as G1 continuity)
-The Decepticons built the space bridge which can get a planet across galaxies
-The Constructicons built Trypticon in only a day or something
-The Autobots built Metroplex in only one night (something like that)
-Metroplex threw Trypticon
-The Decepticons built a cannon that could change the orbit of a moon and a combiner's force-field stopped it (I only heard about this one)
-Galvatron destroyed the planet Torquelon after driving it insane (it was a sentient planet)
-Galvatron trashed the Dinobots (yet another thing I only heard about)

Does anybody know any more?

Grimlock built Computron in about ten minutes out of parts that were just sitting around.

Spike created Headmaster technology/indefinate life-support while hanging out in a cave on some alien world.

Megatron made Optimus leave earth for no reason - and Optimus thought it best to kill himself and the Autobots even tho this will doom earth to the Decepticons... now thats stupidly amazing!

Just as amazing: In the Ultimate Doom Prime has to decide between destroying Earth or Cybertron, and chooses Earth.

Nice one!

Bet they didn't test him properly. Cowboys.

Prime let Megatron run away despite him being defeated at the end of every episode and despite them being at war and despite Megatron being a threat to everyone in the universe. Thats quite a feat for a wartime commander. I'm only talking about the American G1 cartoon, natch.

I'm pretty sure that wasn't in the cartoon, it was in "Fallen Angel" :roll:

-Galvatron using a walkie-talkie as his 'ultimate weapon'. And he did fool Rodimus for a while! Well that's easy to do with Roddy.
