I'm such a 2nd Gen-er/Beast Wars-er! I've only recently learned of certain aspects of the Transformers universe, including (but not limited to) The Original 13, G1 Combiners (awesome ), Targetmasters, Powermasters, and Breastmasters!!!! Those last three seem to be succeeded by the twin-pack PCCs, and the G1 combiners seem to be succeeded by the 5-pack PCCs, which share similarities with Piranacon, Superion, Menasor, Defensor, Bruticus, Computron and Abominus (aka the 'Scramble City'-style Combiners) due to the mix 'n' match style of the drone limbs.

I was actually referring to the Breastmasters from Transformers: Victory, who had chest armour that transformed into robots. This means that the PCC twin-packs are all four-fold:
-Separate Transformer and Mini-Con -Transformer in alt mode with the Mini-Con attached as an engine, weapon or tool (similar to a Powermaster) -Transformer using Mini-Con as a weapon (similar to a Targetmaster) -Transformer using Mini-Con as chest - or sometimes back - armour (similar to a Breastmaster)
I lol-ed at the name 'Breastmaster' when I first saw it...but it makes the most sense when you consider it, being a type of TF with a robot who becomes chest armour, and 'Chestmaster' doesn't sound as good...

OK so my wife was flipping through the channels last night and I noticed something. I said wait click on that for me. Low and behold it was G1 Transformers! It was a new station I have never seen before Haboom! It looks like a spin off from cartoon network. It seems like its on 5 nights a week. I get the basci at&t u-verse don't know of anyone else is currently broadcasting the station yet though. Dvr set to record ftw.!!!!

Ah, you must mean the new Hub Channel. It's the revamped Discovery Kids network. Yep, they are airing G1 Transformers and the new Transformers: Prime series soon.
I don't know about any of you over in the US, but I think the name of the homage Stunticon team's Commander is really going to cause a lot of outrage and controversy in Europe and over here in Oceania! You think Hasbro would choose a more globally-conscious name for its characters...still, Japan has the Breastforce and Breastmasters...
I know one thing though: Unless there's a name-change for the rest of the world, the Stunticon Commander's going to be renamed Cascade in my Power Core Combiners fan-fiction! Can anybody guess why I picked that specific name?
@NP: that word doesn't carry the same connotations here in the US as it does overseas. it'll see a name change before it hits EU/AUS, i'm sure. they've changed the names of games, movies, and all kinds of crap for lesser reasons before.
