“With the help of Nikola Tesla, they reawakened Optimus Prime and sent the elder God back to the ocean”
-
Domitius Major deserves great respect. He manage to take on Cthulhu and drove him out of his universe. He deserves a toy.
-
It would have been interesting to see Hearts of Steel version of Constructicons/Devastator. Heck, Hearts of Steel version of Titans would be epic, mainly Metroplex and Trypticon.
-
AUTOBOTS TRANSFORM AND STEAM ONNNN
-
I'm confused, perplexed, disappointed, curious and intrigued all at the same time. the disappointment would be on the wasted potential of the Evolution line It seemed like a perfect answer to Marvel's "what if" and DC's "Elseworlds" books but after seeing how far IDW has gone, I honestly wouldn't have it another way really.

the transformers fought Cthulhu
-
steampunk optimus VS cthuhlu. awesome
-
Hearts of Steel was definitely a great idea. Makes me wonder what other alternate TF universes could have come to fruition. Outside of Shattered Glass, of course.
-
As silly as Hearts Of Steel was, I really liked the idea of the Evolutions banner, so i was sad that they never did anything beyond HOS. I really like the concept of What If stories of the Transformers' war taking place in different times or places.
-
The more I read IDW the more frustrating it becomes that many things that happen can be explained away as: Shockwave did this. It eventually reaches a point where it starts to feel like a cop-out.
-
I always thought autobots was referring to automobiles since they started as cars and trucks in G1 So should autobots as trains and loco-motives in this version called Loco-bots?
-
This is what I love about alternate histories and crossovers, with the write team behind them. They can tell amazing stories that capture the awesomeness of the combination, best of both worlds.
-
Steampunk Autobots teaming up with Mark Twain and John Henry. This is all kinds of awesome!
-
This sounds like a really neat, really weird story universe, I'd love to see how Transformers in the 1950s would work out.
-
I'm still disappointed that neither Bachmann Industries or Hornby got round to making HOS figures that were operable on HO/OO scale tracks... It's been 30 something years since there was anything Model Railroad related in the Transformers toyline
-
Optimus Prime AND the Ghostusters so far have beaten C'thulhu, sweet.
-
Great video. I'm not normally a fan of John Barber's writing but I did like how he integrated Hearts of Steel into the main IDW continuity. It's a shame IDW never produced more of these alternate reality stories for the Transformers.
-
I wished we had gotten more Evolutions transformers stories as transformers has been all about reinventing itself pretty much since the marvel comics and the show started to split. Whats your favorite "alternate" transformers design or setting? I love the WWII G.I.joe crossover designs by jea lee (when he didnt over ink and shadow them) and War Within Grimlock. I wouldnt mind if they did one that was all 1950 style like muscle cars and MadMen style private Jets. (Megatrons kinda a 1950s style gun)
-
Makes almost all the transformers trains: doesn’t include Raiden the train combiner
-
So the autobots in the heart of steel is not the original just a different team with almost Identical forms
