Hi I am a fellow Transformer's fan with a writer's block problem and I hope I find the right place.......

I am planning to make a Beast Wars remake of the Transformers 2007 movie. But I need help in the story plot....

I am trying to reinvent the Beast Wars/machine saga but set in human times but still keep it to the roots.

THis fic is based on the new Transformer's movie except with differences. One being is that the Transformers took the forms of beasts.....

I think Megatron is the Hitler of Cybertron and wants to see Maximals destroyed...... He created a Transmetal Driver aka the Sphere to improve the power of his Army... Optimus Primal and Gang fled to Earth and stayed there for a decade or so before his force eventually found them in 2007. But before the Maximals, led by Optimus Primal fled, they captured the TM Driver to prevent the buildup of forces so Megs sends task forces out to find them.

I am now thinking Daniel Witwicky as the main character. CAuse I made changes to the G1 timeline.

Basically Spike was 18 when the Autobots and Decepticons brought their conflict to Earth and it was the year 1980. Then in 1984 thanks to human intervention, the Great wars on Earth ended..... and the Autobots and Decepticons returned to Cybertron and never to be heard of again...... The Government basically Sector 51 aka Area 51, cleaned the mess already time the Transformers raged battle.... and denied the existence of Transformers! They even failed to give credit to the Autobots contributions.

Spike married Daniel's mother, Carly, a story artist in the animation industry somewhere in the 1990s. By that time, Spike just got a windfall via giving credit to the heroes of Cybertron, mainly he was the creator of the Transformers toyline in this universe so he became a millionaire!

But behind the human's backs, the Autobots and Decepticons have made some form of peace and then upgraded into Maximals and Predacons but there still always room or some tensions.....

But now basically the problem is the connection between the Witwickys and the Sphere as why would the MAximals who have been hiding from the Predacons for a decade prior the fic, look for Daniel on Purpose? Especially only Rattrap knows about the Witwickys via a history file about the autobots time on Earth.

dear members of TFans, your help would be very appreciated... and I will try in my best efforts to complete his tale....

Thank you

Use a take from the movie; use an ancestor of young Daniel to tie the Witwickys and the Sphere together, but instead of a pair of glasses use something like maybe a telescope or something or possibly an ancient minicon with the power of merging technology and biology to create stronger and more agile beings.

The Sphere arrived on Earth somewhere in the 1990s/// along with the Maximals.... Megatron fell in the Arctic circle about in 1995.... and has been in cryo stasis even in Area 51....

Daniel was just born somwhere in the very late 1980s.

Maybe... Rhinox created a tracking device to can accurately pinpoint the Sphere's location? or maybe the Predacons are also looking for the sphere but they detected Maximals on Earth. They sensed Spark Radiation Rarticles on Daniel... since he got K-9 his new dog?

Maximals

Optimus Primal[Gorilla]
Cheetor[Cheetah]
Black Arachina[Black Widow]
K-9 [Shiloh Shepherd]
Rattrap[Transmetal Rat.... well he was the one who stole the thing in the first place! But he has an organic cover.]
Rhinox[Rhino]

Predacons

Megatron [TransMetal two headed Dragon/Cybertronian Jet]
Raven[Crow]
Flybot [Botfly]
Scorponok[Scorpion]
Scavenger[Sahara Ant]
Scourge[Locust]
Hack[Black Cat]
Scream [Cougar]
Methane [Cattle]

And yes I am sticking the cow predacon, as I have read a new issue on TIMES saying that 1 cow produce 100 to 200 litres of methane daily.... so how evil is that!

And I still have issues with how the Sphere is going to connect the Maximals to find him.

basically the Maximals arrived on the Earth and got the exact coordinates but when they got there, the Sphere was not there! Grrr..... not another writer's block....

I am now having second thoughts on Megs size.... I decided to make him the size of a unmanned aircraft X-36

The Predacons are organic except for Megatron since the other predacons arrived on Earth only weeks in the year 2014.
This fic is set in 2014.

i dunno, maybee the maximals hid the sphere in some kind of art musuem, passed it off as a sculpture or something. and then millionare spike buys this sculpture for their mansion and daniels mouths off bout it to the wrong people and the tfs find out.

Daniel's dad, spike, found the beacon while on his vacation then he came back home. and then Daniel got inspired by the funny hieroglyphics on the beacon and accidentally activates it....

And The Sphere after it landed on Earth it was detected by the beacon also a ball shaped device, then in 1994 the maximals receive the signal and came to Earth in secret. But the Sphere and the Beacon were not at the supposed coordinates. So they took refuge from the Predacons and continued their search for the beacon for 20 years until 2014

And by the way the Sphere is pretty large.... about the size of the allspark. but it can fold up the same way and it also contains its essence too!

Basically the beacon found the Sphere on Earth but however later MJ-12 moved it to their facility in Area 51. But the beacon was lost to the waters of a nearby river. The sphere original location was in Ukraine when it landed in 1991. The Maximals came in 1994, followed by Megatron in 1997 in the Arctic. Some of the local civilians who touched the sphere turned Transmetal! UFO Crashes

And yah based on real events I decided to change Sector 51 to MJ-12.

Spike is a bit changed from his G1 universe counterpart since he fought side by side with the Autobots. He hates the govt for hiding the truth about the Transformers and also discrediting the Autobots..... What the heck!

Spike even mentioned some of the G1 characters like Optimus Prime and Rodimus, something like Rodimus was a bit pissed off at the humans for not giving credit for those who saved their Planet. Spike also believed that it was the reason why they left for good.

The Battle has began!

I made changes again

those symbols rock!! i love the maximal one

The old one or the new one?

i like the new ones better, but i did like the little triangles on the ears of the old maximal one. these are perfect upgrades to the beast wars faction symbols

great line up for the predaconsim guessing they wont be actaull bug sized? i still think you need to include tarantuals, not having him is like not having starscream

hes got a good point...
