dunmurderinBeing a total nerdlinger, I looked up "Rats" for the Disheveled Pipes story for the 28 Pipes Meme below, which led naturally enough to the Chinese zodiac sign which led, nerdlingerly enough, to looking up the Combaticons' Chinese Zodiac sign.
I used the date of 9/15/1985 because that was the date listed on the script version of "Starscream's Brigade"
The Combaticons are: The Ox:
A Snippet:
Out in the world, though, Oxen tend to be stubborn, dogmatic, my-way-or-the-highway kind of people who have no concept of when to back down. Oxen don't care to be pushed, especially since they think they're the good guys of the Chinese Zodiac. There is some truth to that theory, since the Ox is smart, trustworthy, caring and honorable. If you need honest, steady and unbiased advice, call on the Ox.
Well, the "no concept of when to back down" thing certainly applies -- at least to my version of the Combaticons. Stubborn fits all of them, not just Brawl or Onslaught. Think they're the good guys? Well...not so much the "good" guys but very much into the whole self-interest thing. In my story world, the Combaticons consider themselves Combaticons first, Decepticons second. This is what led to them getting in trouble back in the day and, even now, is what keeps them slightly apart from the other Decepticons.
Dun.
PS: by Western astrology? They're Virgos. *SNICKER*
