also, my lap top doesnt like macs:
And I'm probably going to draw an ipod-bot with some headphone tentacles or something.
Can they be old-school?
Do they have to be common household objects?
Answer:
AUTOBOT LAPBAR: When LAPBAR came to Earth to help his fellow Autobots in the war against the Decepticons, he landed near a county fair in West Springfield, Massachusetts. Scanning local machinery for an Earth disguise, he made the unfortunate choice of selecting a carnival ride. Not as mobile as the rest of the Autobots, LAPBAR nevertheless carries on the fight against the forces of evil when he isn't having himself hosed down. Capable of disorienting his enemies by whirling his little red carts around wicked fast, LAPBAR gives new meaning to 'taking someone for a spin'!
The stylus becomes a very tiny photon cannon.
Awww yeah...
DECEPTICON LINTTRAP: Megatron and Soundwave were tired of feeling like the lamest, cheap-ass-est Transformers around. I mean, a handgun and a walkman? Yeah, okay. So when Megatron summoned more Decepticons to Earth, he wanted to make sure some of them were gimpier than he was. Thus: LINTTRAP. Dryers don't get sent out on many recon missions. But that doesn't mean he's a washout - he can blast flames from his drum in excess of 1000 Fahrenheit, and he's permanently set to heavy-load tumble. Laundry jokes, how do those sit with you?
edit: sorry for the shitty pic
Comlink, he's my LG cellphone, with his battery cover as a shield and uh, a plasma rifle or something on his left arm.
Max Radical's whatnow? No, I guess you could say I didn't know. But then, this whole exercise was probably done in Mad magazine (possibly Cracked) circa 1987.
I'm fairly certain he went Super Saiyan at one point.
So I guess the idea of a laundry-machine Transformer s a pretty universal one, then.
Just post your pencils. No one is going to stomp on your robot.
This guy's like that cassette transformer. I guess he fits into an evil lamp or something?
I give you...COMMODIUS...
He doesn't take any crap from anyone! (ugh.....I apologize for that :oops: )
:Raidon: -Autobot- the perfect answer to the inscecticons "kills on contact"

An early Decepticon attempt at electronic transformers in the late 1940's. Still had some kinks to work out, since it could only transform once due to the vacuum tube glass breaking. Good for one shot missions, mainly scouting and sabotage, since if installed in a radio, he tube would break when it transformed. Very, very few examples still exist, since any vacuum tube still floating around would immediately attract suspicion, and most have already transformed. Armed with an electrical shock, like a mild taser. Walks on the plugs on the bottom, which telescope out.
It's, um, Gamecube Controller Bot and... DS... tron. Lite.
They'll be up soon.
There you go, Iruka. There's my transformer. Now gimme my spider bunnies!
A personal spy for Megatron himself, ZOOMSHOT is used to tap into the global media to search for any signs of autobot activity. ZOOMSHOT is equipped with a long-range shoulder-mounted mic and 400x optical cybertronian enhanced zoom lens. To his defense, ZOOMSHOT utilizes his LCD screen as a shield as well as a communications device. The handle of his alternate mode doubles as a sidearm and his minidv tapes double as EMP (electro magnetic pulse) charge to short out power upto a 50 foot radius.
