Follow up to Cyberverse Adventures.
Concept is Into the Spiderverse meets Crisis on Infinite Earths.
Centered on Bumblebee because that's the only thing Hasbro would do.
This explores both canon existing TF universes (it's not going to a universe like Marvel G1, it is Marvel G1), and new ones to explore "what if...? type stuff.
If they go to an existing show's world, then like TMNT 2012 and CW's CoIE, then they try to get the original voice actors where and when possible.
Picking up some time after the end of Cyberverse, from within the Allspark, Cheetor senses destruction on an unimaginable scale. Universe after universe is collapsing in a massive chain reaction. The next one to fall is this one. Utilizing the power of the Allspark, Cheetor acts as quickly as he can, sweeping away as many cybertronians as he can just before everything collapses.
Unfortunately, it isn't many.
When Bumblebee awakens, he's on a dark, dead ship. The only other survivors seem to be Shadow Striker, Clobber, Thunderhowl, Meteorfire, Wildwheel, and Hammerbyte.
None of them are a mechanic, so restoring the ship seems beyond them.
But together, they figure out this gigantic mysterious ship is adrift in a pocket outside of spacetime. And running off battery reserves, it has a very limited ability to send and retrieve mechs to and from parallel dimensions. At least while it's between dimentions.
But it only has enough power left to send and retrieve a few into another universe.
Bumblebee takes Clobber and Thunderhowl, as Shadow Striker chooses a universe with cybertronian signatures at random, with the hopes they'll find a Wheeljack willing to come back with them.
The universe they arrive in does have a Wheeljack. But not one they'd want to have anything to do with (it's Shattered Glass). They're rescued from the clutches of Optimus Prime who now wants their dimension hopping tech, by Cliffjumper and the Decepticons.
After another adventure, Starscream volunteers to return with them with Megatron's blessing (and some gifts of supplies).
Starscream isn't the engineer they hoped for, but his scientific mind is still needed.
With his help and the power cells Megatron gave them, they can at least get the transmat powered for a few more trips.
By the end of Season 1, they've aquired a few new crewmates, and are actually underway in restoring this ship, which they've since learned is called The Lost Light.
While the Lost Light is still far from functional when Season 2 starts, they're in a much better place, and can start taking a proactive role in trying to stop the end of the multiverse.
Season 2 ends with the complete collapse of another major well known universe (Sunbow maybe? Not out of my dislike, but because it both has emotional meaning, and is functionally dead anyway), and the Lost Light taking as many refugees as it can.
I have no clue what's causing the collapse, but I do know that I would have it be something completely new. Not Unicron, not the Dead Universe, not any other recycled concept that's been used before.
