Primus/Unicron to be removed from IDW

GWolf

apparently furman is pushing to have Primus and Unicron not included in the idw universe. This is important because Hasbro always said Primus and Unicron are universal elements in all TF continuites, so if IDW doesn't have them, rules be changing

If you had said any other person than Furman id have believed the story.
Unicron is one of his crutch characters.So i cant see him giving him the elbow.
Sill fair play to him if its true

GWolf

Yeah, I think we could do with a little break from Unicorn.

IDW does have some interesting changes. galvatron is supposed to be a seperate character from Megs

This is bad.

They have been overused but that's like saying Optimus Prime is overused, let's get rid of Optimus Prime.

They are important parts of TF Mythos, if not the most important part.

Sad.

Unicrons been done to death at this stage. Its too easy too fall back on on the whole epic "the whole planets in danger from this massive evil being" storylines. In a universe which has such potential for great storylines, its a cop-out to use him so much. So fair play to IDW if its true.
The Galvatron & Megatron thing could be good too, if its done right. I'd love to see the battle of wits beteen them...

Well, it could be interesting. I'd expect it to play out with Megs and Galvatron working against each other. We could get some very interesting moments.

but I'm definetly all for a break from giant planet eater et al.

Furmans done that b4 during his time wars arc. It wasent a particularly good idea back then either. But i do agree that Uni could use a long long vacation

GWolf

Yeah, somewhere in the sun, where the girls go around with no casing

they are not messing with Cannon. They are creating IDW Cannon. IDW is it's own thing and what came before has nothing to do with it.

And Furman has said that he has no plans for unicron or Primus in any of the storyboards he has done already.
That doesn't mean that they have been Banished to the void.

Unicron is gona have a cameo in the new Beast wars series apparently.

And I for one have no prob with Gav and megs being different charachters.
Change is not always bad. Normall it is but not always.

Apart from the fact That EVERY incarnation of Galvatron in Every Tf universe Has been a reformatted Megatron ......... or at the very least Megs with a tackier paint scheme.

Interesting. Loved the Take IDW had on Beast Wars. If its a cameo in the way he was a cameo in the actual series then that would rock

I dont have a massive problem with it myself . But, As ive stated previously Furman has done it b4 and it was just a convuluted mess then.

Actually now that i think of it. Hes done it twice.
Once in time wars and once in the Armada story Worlds Collide
Worlds collide wasent too bad apart from the fact that it just didnt feel like Galvatron

Except he was still a reformatted MEgatron in that. They just did the whole time warp thing. This time, supposed to be a copmpletly different and unrelated character
