This obscure fan theory was too good to not make an article about ASAP…. If the theory I am about to share is true, then it not only makes Dinobot an even more compelling character, but it makes his legacy all the deeper. It may also be the most controversial theory I have made so far. Anyway, here it goes; is the Predacon gone Maximal Transformer Dinobot a long lost descendent on the G1 Decepticon Megatron? As strange and as far fetched as it sounds, a lot of the evidence points in that direction.
Firstly, if we’re going by looks alone…
Dinobot has an even close resemblance to G1 Megatron than BW Megatron does. They even share the similar strange trait of their helmets looking like it can come off. Unlike all of the other bots on the series, no part of Dinobot’s face looks like an extension of his helmet and it looks like it has wiggle room. Also, G1 Megatron had the honour of being the first Transformer to sport eyebrows which at the time, was unique only to him and it was one of the defining traits that made him different and possibly a mutant. Dinobot’s helmet is so low that it almost covers his eyes. Could he be trying to cover up a pair of eyebrows of his own? I also want to point out two very distinct things about Dinobot which he also shares in common with Megatron. I once mentioned in a previous post that Megatron’s voice was very monstrous sounding even for a Decepticon. If you listen closely to Dinobot’s voice before he even gets the raptor alt mode and renames himself “Dinobot”, he has an animalistic voice and even does things like snarl. In fact, out of all of the BW Transformers, he is the one who tends to make animalistic sounds the most frequently even when perfectly calm. Secondly, when Dinobot unsheathes his sword, it is in the exact same place as Megatron’s spare white bazooka. And since we’re on the topic of weapons, for one brief moment in the classic 1980s Transformers movie, Megatron went at Optimus with a laser sword and displayed the same fencing style Dinobot uses.
Then there is also Dinobot’s motives. He doesn’t want to conquer Cybertron. He wants a better life for all Transformers namely his own people. He wants them to have the right to step onto Cybertron, the home of their ancestors, anytime they want without the fear of being convicted just because they call themselves Predacons or without being forced into converting against their will. As mentioned in a previous post, the Predacon society is in complete chaos, but one that stands out is the group of Predacons that still preserves the Decepticon way, but with a slightly different perception which Dinobot obviously is a part of. He respects might, but he also goes by a strict code of fair play and honour which G1 Megatron the Decepticon leader lived by fiercely. Moreover, Dinobot being a descendent of Megatron would explain why he went along with BW Megatron’s plan. If he was related to him, maybe he would have wanted to have the Golden Disk in order to seek knowledge about his ancestor or maybe he felt it rightfully belonged to him.
Having a relation to Megatron also explains a lot about Dinobot’s personality and his struggles. It could also explain his love-hate relationship towards himself and his own heritage. Being related to Megatron means he is related to a historical criminal whose misdeeds are used to justify the exile of his people and Decepticons. That can’t be an easy thing to live with even if your own people and you see the guy differently. It does explain the huge chip on his shoulder and why he feels a constant need to keep his code of ethics clean. It also explains why Dinobot felt tempted and almost gave in to rejoining BW Megatron. He thought that he had a chance at giving Predacons an edge at winning the war, but he then realised that he didn’t want better for Predacons using BW Megatron’s methods. He recalled how warfare ruined G1 Megatron’s chances.
It is also often hinted that Dinobot saw what was on the disks though it is never known what he saw other than that one clip BW Megatron was able to salvage and show Ravage. Maybe he saw things that gave him a lot to think about and also motivated him to destroy the Golden Disk for the good of Decepticons. For all we know, THAT was G1 Megatron’s final wish.
Of course, this is all theory, but you have to admit. The finger is pointing very sharply at this. Dinobot is not your average Transformer and personally, I do believe this theory to be true. If it is, then it means Dinobot redeemed Megatron’s lineage.
Anyway, what do you all think of this?
this is like 100% petty all things considered but i just can’t wait until some of u learn that it is absolutely normal for people of any age to refer to their dads as “daddy” in many parts of the south like it isn’t a red flag there. 60 year old women in my family still refer to their dads as “daddy.” and btw i think anyone should be allowed to call their own fathers whatever they want without someone either making it nasty or being accusatory like don’t you get tired of making ppl uncomfortable for no reason

Relatable.
Me: No, no, no, I can't reuse that!
Also Me: Yes, yes, write more about this exact thing over and over!
me as a writer: Oh no I can’t write that, somebody else already has
me as a reader: hell yes give me all the fics about this one scenario. The more the merrier
Everyone: *gathered in the kitchen with Foretellers & Luxu sat at the table and the MoM standing beside a broken coffee maker*
Master of Masters: So. Who broke it?
Everyone: ...
Master of Masters: I'm not mad, I just wanna know.
Ava: ...I did, I broke it--!
Master of Masters: No. No, you didn't. Gula?
Gula: Don't look at me...look at Aced.
Aced: What? I didn't break it.
Gula: Huh, that's funny. How'd you even know it was broken?
Aced: Uh, because it's sitting right in front of us, and it's broken.
Gula: Suspicious.
Aced: No, it's not--!
Ira: If it matters, probably not, but...Invi was the last one to use it.
Invi: *gasp* Liar! I don't even drink that crap!
Ira: Oh, really, then what were you doing by the coffee cart earlier?
Invi: I use the wooden stirs to push back my cuticles, everyone knows that, Ira!
Ava: Alright, alright, let's not fight, it's my fault, let me pay for it, Master.
Master of Masters: NO! Who broke it?!
Everyone: ...
Gula: ...Master...Luxu's been awfully quiet--
Luxu: REALLY?!
Gula: Yeah, really!
Everyone: *starts arguing loudly*
Later...
Master of Masters: *standing in the hallway with their argument still being heard a floor away* I broke it. It burned my hand, so I punched it.
I do this all the time.
"So, what you writing about?"
