    Okay, in beast machines, Cybertron had an organic core right? Well, in the new series Transformers: Cybertron, supposively cybertron is a giant robot planet. Has anyone else noticed this????

    How can an organic planet with, basically, a robtic shell turn completely into a robot?

    Could someone explain to me which one is wrong and which one is right?

    You decide. Armada, Energon, and Cybertron aren't even connected to Beast Machines. Besides, those three revolve around Autobots and Decepticons rather than Maximals and Predacons. (Robots In Disguise is pure crud, to me.)

    Well, when you look at all the Transformers series, none of them really connect completely except for Beast Wars and Beast Machines. The later ones have the same characters but the storyline comes back different, I'm assuming due to different writers for the shows.

    It's never really actually been said that Armada/Energon/Cybertron is connected to Beast Wars/Beast Machines. It could be seperate alltogether so that would explain the difference.

    There is suppose to be only one Primus and one Unicron in all the universes. There are times in the other transformers shows that I wonder if Cybertron is organic or not. In the G1 comic and Energon series, the core of the planet is a place for Primus to sleep. All I see in the that room is metal. Unicron must be trying to copy Primus because in Armada, Unicron is organic inside.

    That beacause the because the new serie the unicron trilogie (armarda, energon, cybertron) is a new story who have nothing to do whit beast wars/machine and the G1 universe. same thing for the serie Robot in disguise who is a independente story...

    It was never stated that Cybertron was always mechanical. It's stated in the cartoon that it was a factory made by the Quintessons, but not that they made it from scratch.

    It's fully possible (and perfectly in-character) for the Quintessons to have teraformed an organic world into a factory world. In fact in a time-travel episode where we see how Cybertron was under Quint rulership you see it had organic mountains, and in "Dweller in the Depths" we see an ancient area of Cybertron the Quints used as a lab for where they made all th early TFs, and it was an organic cavern deep within the planet.

    And in "Desertion of the Dinobots" the Dinobots go deep within Cybertron to find an ancient Cybertronium mine, and when they do they see the whole place is lik an Earth mine, with dirt and rocks and stuff. No tech.

    On wikipedia it says that Cybertron was indeed an "organic" planet before the creators of the Transformers arived on it.
    Anyway it doesnt realy matter to me since those series arent related.

    It is generally understood that the original Transformers, followed by Beast Wars, followed by Beast Machines are the only series in Transformers continuity. There are many, many knockoff Japanese Transformers series that simply retell the same story, so they can't be in the same universe. Also, the new American show Transformers Animated, and Transformers: The Movie and its sequel are not part of the universe either. Although, they are so popular, that they seem to be successfully rewriting the continuity, making all past shows' stories irrelevant to them.
