A massive brass and copper clockwork robot stands in a steampunk Victorian city, surrounded by smaller robots and airships under a stormy sky.

Here is a pitch for a completely different Transformers franchise, abandoning the previous aesthetic for a new concept: Transformers: The Clockwork Knights This series is a total departure from the techno-organic and futuristic aesthetics. It is set primarily in a high-tech, steampunk Victorian era, blending the intricate mechanical design of clockwork with the epic scale of a Transformers story. The Transformers themselves are not from Cybertron, but from a parallel dimension. The Core Concept: The Transformers are ancient, time-manipulating beings. Their bodies are not made of modern alloys, but of ornate, brass-and-copper clockwork machinery. They are powered by a mystical energy source known as the Chronos Spark, which allows them to manipulate time, space, and probability. Their alt modes are not modern vehicles, but steam-powered locomotives, intricate airships, and Victorian-era contraptions. The Factions: The old war is over, but a new, more philosophical conflict has taken its place. The two new factions are: The Clockwork Knights: The heroes of the series. They are the guardians of the natural flow of time. They believe the Chronos Spark's power must be used to protect history from corruption. Their leader is General Grandeur, a towering clockwork behemoth who transforms into a magnificent steam locomotive. The Steam Lords: The villains. They are a faction of renegades who want to exploit the Chronos Spark for personal gain, creating paradoxes to rewrite history in See more
