From reading on the wiki the Japanese version Galaxy Force it is standalone, it was just the American version that tried to make it a sequel.

Plus I'm pretty sure I saw Armada and the sequel when I was a kid, I remember liking them. The one I remember only catching a few times was one where Megatron was like a three headed dragon or something.

It also provides an explanation for every single plot-hole in the omniverse in the form of the Unicron Singularity (although I think it was expanded-universe material that brought up that concept).

Honestly even the american one is Stand-Alone, Cybertron is simply incompatible with the other 2 shows.
If you are going with Glaxy Force then I hope you enjoy it.
May the burning justice be with you


Multiple headed dragon Megatron was Robots in Disguise/Car Robots, he also transformed into a hand amongst other things

that's pretty much a western only thing, the unciron singualrity was added to the japanese Tf canon after Cybertron aired here, so Galaxy Force is free from the concept.

They go to distant planets to get special keys, so Tf Gokaiger but with way less keys, and more planets.

You just described one form of RID Megatron.

I must be alone in thinking that Galaxy Force isn't a good place to start at all...
Then again, I was not much of a fan.

As long as it's not KP, I'm fine with whatever he chooses.

I do agree that there are better starting points, but anime wise GF is pretty much the only choice.

I kind of derailed this thread by bringing up something that isn't Western animation. Back on target anyone see that sexy piece of animation that came out recently: Justice League The Flashpoint Paradox?

Wasn't that one Transformers Cybertron? I do remember having the toy keys and some toys for it.

I have. I made a quick, paragraph long review of it a couple pages back.

Overall, I hated the character design, I loved the story, and I was surprised by how violent it was overall (Which Potato informed me was mandated by WB).
