Woot!

Q: In the Beast Wars movie, how did Optimus Primal "upgrade" himself (temporarily) to defeat Majin Zarak?

Bonus Q: What was the name of Primal's "upgraded" form?

He does some weird flashy thing with Lio Convoy to become Burning Convoy. It's essentially a pink gorilla riding a golden lion to destroy an aircraft carrier. Yeah, I do think it's as stupid as it sounds.

You get 1 point for answering the Bonus Question - Optimus Primal's "upgraded" form was indeed called "Burning Convoy." However I'm gonna need something a bit more specific than "weird flashy thing" ;)

But it looks cooler than the way you describe it. After all, I could describe the climax of Transformers The Movie as Hot Rod uses a blue light-bulb to destroy a planet-eating-planet robot... thing. ;)

Or the most embarrassing simplified description of all: Boba Fett was beaten by a blind man with a stick... har!! :D

yeah go for it.

The answer to my main question was that Optimus Primal and Lio Convoy combined the powers of their Energon Matrices.

*blows dust off thread*

Q: What is the name given to the Maximals' and Predacons' faster-than-light propulsion system?

Btw, would anyone object if we allowed this thread to be about anything relevant to Transformers and not just Beast Wars? :)

I'm not good with canon material outside of BW but I'm sure willing to try it. Growing in knowledge is never a bad thing!

As for the question, I'm going to say Transwarp Drive.
