Nevermore se ha currado este ¿resumen? basándose en las fichas de los juguetes y encajándolo con datos de la tercera temporada (Binaltech se dsarrolla etre S2 y S3). Es digno de leerse, uno ya casi se lo imagina como episodios a la antigua usanza.

In the year 2003, over a decade after the end of season 2 of the G1 cartoon, humans and Autobots have formed an alliance. The Earth Defense Command (EDC, from G1 season 3) has been formed, construction of Autobot City ("Cybertron City" in Japan; first seen in TF:TM) has begun, humans are about to make their first steps into outer space, starting with a colony on the moon (the Lunar Colony was originally mentioned in the G1 season 3 episode "Five Faces of Darkness, Part 2"; in the original script of that episode, there was a line that was cut from the final episode which established the colony as having existed since 1997).

Meanwhile, Megatron had launched an all-out war on Cybertron, and many Autobot warriors had left the Earth in order to prevent him from taking over their home planet. However, some Autobots, led by Ultra Magnus, decided to stay back on Earth in order to protect the planet and Autobot City.

All of a sudden, the Combaticon Swindle unleashed a modified version of the Cosmic Rust (from the G1 season 2 episode "Cosmic Rust" ) on the Autobots. While a few of them, including Jazz (Meister) and Ultra Magnus, were spared from the effects of the virus, most of the Earth-bound Autobots, among them Smokescreen, Hound, Tracks, Sideswipe (Lambor/Side Swipe), Bluestreak (Streak/Silverstreak), Sunstreaker and Trailbreaker, were damaged beyond repair.

In order to counter the new Decepticon threat, the EDC launched an emergency plan and initiated the long-planned project "Binaltech". Supervised by the Autobots' mother computer Teletraan-1 (from G1 season 1 and 2), car manufacturers and research facilities around the world started to build new bodies for the fallen Autobot warriors that combined the latest of Earth's and Cybertron's technologies. The Autobots' primary power sources are electro-cells (originally introduced in the G1 season 2 episode "Traitor" ).

The first Autobot to be rebuilt in a new Binaltech body was Bluestreak, but due to some problems with an unstable personality, the EDC Inspection Bureau had him undergo a variety of tests until they gave him clearance to return to active duty. Next up were: Smokescreen, in a new body built by Fuji Heavy Industries, Inc. and STi (Subaru Tecnica International); Sideswipe, in a new body built by the Daimler-Chrysler Corporation's PVO-Team (Performance Vehicle Operations), whose main operating computer is a "TORQ 3000" quantum processor developed by Quantum Laboratories (from the G1 season 2 episode "Day of the Machines", where they created the super-computer TORQ III); Hound, who totally loves his new body built by Daimler-Chrysler and Hybrid Technologies Corporation ("High Technology Corporation" in Japan; Astoria's company from the G1 season 2 episode "The Girl Who Loved Powerglide" ) and views it as the first step towards his goal of becoming human himself one day; and Tracks, in a new body built by General Motors and DuPont (GM's former parent company), which now provides him with the ability to change his body color from yellow to blue.

The newly rebuilt Binaltech Autobots were able to repel the Decepticon attack, severely damage some of them and eventually drive them off the planet. In the meantime, however, an evil underground organization, calling itself the "Concurrence", was formed. With prominent members such as Count von Rani (aka Iron Klaw from "G.I. Joe Extreme" ) and General Garrison Kreiger (aka General Blitz from "Sgt. Savage and his Screaming Eagles" ) and financially backed up by Lord Chumley (from the G1 season 2 episode "Prime Target" ) and Shawn Berger Jr. (from the G1 season 2 two-parter "Megatron's Master Plan" ), among others, they sought to put a rift between the human/Autobot alliance.

Shortly afterwards, Starscream, from a secret staging ground, contacted his former ally Dr. Arkeville (from the G1 season 1 three-parter "The Ultimate Doom" and the follow-up episode "Countdown to Extinction" ), who was also a member of the Concurrence, and the two of them agreed to form an alliance. Arkeville combined his own "hypnochip" (also from "The Ultimate Doom" ) with the Insecticon Bombshell's cerebro-shells and thus managed to secretly bring several facilities participating in the Binaltech Project under his control, in order to provide the damaged Decepticon warriors with new bodies as well.

Therefore, while Symultech Industries (originally mentioned in the G1 season 2 episode "Trans-Europe Express" ) believed they were rebuilding Sunstreaker, they actually built a new body for Dead End, who can no longer combine with the other Stunticons into Menasor in this form and now fears that he might have to revert to his old body some day. Likewise, the body the Central City Institute of Technology (Central City is a fictious city from the G1 season 2 two-parter "Megatron's Master Plan" ) had intended for Trailbreaker (even including a force field projector ["force barrier emitter" in Japan], which now had to be left offline since it was never finished) ended up as the new body of Swindle, who had managed to put himself on top of the waiting list of Decepticons to receive a Binaltech upgrade, even though other Decepticons were more severely damaged, and now can't merge with the other Combaticons into Bruticus anymore either.

Since the EDC deleted the registration for the BT units the Decepticons had acquired, they couldn't access electro-cell recharge facilities anymore (the "recharge facilities" refer to the recharging chambers from the G1 season 2 episode "Attack of the Autobots" ), thus they used stabilized "exponential generators" (Dr. Arkeville's invention from "Countdown to Extinction" ) as their new primary power sources instead.

In order to counter the threat posed by the Decepticons' infiltration of the project and their acquisition of the Binaltech technology, the Autobots and the EDC quickly launched a number of counteroffensives:

The first of them was a sub-project, initiated by the EDC's Advanced Technologies Development Bureau, named "Genetronic Translink" (GT), headed by the Autobots' old associate Chip Chase (from G1 season 1 and 2). In order to enable a single Autobot to control several Binaltech bodies at once, the GT technology involved an Autobots' "laser core" (first mentioned in the G1 season 1 episode "Divide and Conquer"; first seen in the G1 season 2 episode "Starscream's Brigade" ), which is the basis of his personality, being stored in "subspace" (a popular concept among fans used to explain various aspects of Transformers technology) and from there controlling the individual robot units via "Translink ports". The first Autobot to test the new technology was Smokescreen, who, now as Smokescreen GT, can operate up to four robot bodies at once, although this amount of active units is saved as a last resort for criticial situations.

The second Autobot to use the GT technology was Jazz, who had originally not been affected by the Cosmic Rust. Regardless, he agreed to have his brain transferred into a new body (built by the Mazda Corporation) anyways in order to carry out secret operations. Using the GT technology, Jazz can also remote-control a red duplicate of himself he nicknamed "Zoom-Zoom". Zoom-Zoom isn't a fully sentient individual yet, but Jazz has already started to give him dancing lessons whenever time permits. Jazz himself, in turn, participated in a secret investigation code-named "Operation: Carwash", intended to uncover the extent of the Decepticons' infiltration of the Binaltech Project.

Meanwhile, the EDC's top agent, Dashiell R. Faireborn (better known as Flint from "G.I. Joe", now also the father to EDC agent Marissa Faireborn from G1 season 3), infiltrated the Concurrence's secret headquarters in the Lunar Colony and found out the truth about the Concurrence's agenda, the involvement of von Rani, Kreiger, Chumley and Berger, and also about Arkeville's brainwashing activities. After confirming that no member of the BT project was actually working for the Concurrence, he managed to send out a message to Ultra Magnus in Autobot City, advising him to find a way to neutralize the effects of the brainwashing. After finishing his transmission, Faireborn was forced to flee in order not to get caught by the enemy. His fate is still unclear at this point.

At the same time, on Cybertron, the war between Optimus Prime's Autobots and Megatron's Decepticons was in full force when the Decepticons used some primitive telepathic aliens known as the "Unleasher" (NOT a G1 or other obscure reference - Hirofumi Ichikawa confirmed they are entirely his own creation) in order to launch a psychic attack on the Autobots. The attack affected all "Primitives" (first identified as such in the G1 season 3 episode "Call of the Primitives" ) and turned the Dinobots into rampaging savages.

After the Autobots had found themselves forced to take their comrades out of commission, Grimlock regained consciousness and agreed to do anything in order to be able to return to the battlefield. Thus, Wheeljack rushed off to Earth and had Grimlock's brain being transferred into a new body (built by the Ford Company's Specialized Car Development Team) that combined all the improvements of the previous Binaltech bodies, thus making him the "ultimate" Binaltech warrior. Even though Grimlock hated his new body from the first minute and took it out on the Ford developers even while still being rebuilt, he decided to make the best of his situation and to continue fighting alongside his fellow Autobots.

To be continued...

Está muy trabajada, arregla las excusas baratas de la verdadera historia.

podria poner alguien el lineas generales el resumen de todo esto por favor??
gracias y saludos

Vaya, una buena historia, aclara muchas cosas que quedan sueltas

Y no estaria mas increible aún k hicieran una serie basada en ellos?
Sería muchisimo mejopr k armada y energon y Rid, y..y..y.... Vamos, k seria la mejor..

Me ha gustado mucho el cuento, pero aún así no logra congeniar completamente su inclusión en medio de la segunda temporada por un lado y la pelicula y la tercera temporada, por otro.......
No se había rumoreado que si la venta de estas figuras era favorable en la navidad pasada se sacaría una nueva serie basada en éstas?

Creo que se barajó la posibilidad de crear un película de Altenators que vendría en un DVD con alguno de los juguetes. Algo barato, pero que los fans agradecerían. Depende mucho de las ventas en USA, y no sé qué tal andarán. De cualquier forma parece que Energon no ha tenido el éxito de Armada, al menos juzgando por la penosa retransmisión en la Cartoon Network, con contínuos cambios de horario y repeticiones. Así que no creo que les sobre el dinero para hacer nada sobre Alternators.

Contestando a Hot Rod: Si es una historia alternativa, bien........Pero me ha dado la impresión de ser parte de la historia oficial en el periodo de transición de las generaciones acotadas.
En cuanto a lo del exito de Energon, no se, pero en este hemisferio la trasmiten en un horario no estelar, esto es, a las 12:30 AM, lo que no habla muy bien del tema.........o será acaso por la violencia?
Y voy corriendo al tema de las chicas a ver si encuentro un espaldarazo

Pues siento decepcionar a Hot Rod pero la muerte de Inferno no fue tan dramática como él me comentó. No sentí ese nudo en la garganta como cuando vi morir a Prime en la peli o a Dinobot en BW, pero sin duda fue una muerte de las que merecen ser recordadas.

Gracias Hot Rod he conseguida toda la serie completa de SL y ya puedo continuar viendo donde Cartoon Network dejó Energon, la segunda temporada. Si la primera ya me estaba enganchando esta es tremenda, la animación ha mejorado bastante, la trama es más intensa y tienen muchas mejores escenas de acción.
Los personajes son de lujo, Kicker está más alucinante que núnca y qué decir de los nuevos..... me encanta la voz de Wheeljack, parece un playboy con estilo; me encanta Overdrive CHECK IT OUT!!, y Sprung es tronchante con su voz de viejo salido, su risa de viejo salido, sus posturitas y sobre todo verle disparar, eso fue demasiado

Debo decir que Demolisher tiene una voz bastante peor reformateado, en japones tiene voz de perfecto gorila incluso imitando sus sonidos mientras que en español era mucho más soportable. Shockblast es la grán sorpresa, la voz japonesa está a años luz de la española y escuchar su nuevo sonido de guerra es genial mientras que en Energon tenía que conformarme con su voz ronca diciendo "Mirage ataca, Mirage destruye" Qué mejor que SHOCKSHOCKSHOCK!!!!!

So, check it out yo!
