Description Cybertronians use space-bridge technology for expeditions to Earth in order to harvest Energon long buried under the planet's surface, but they fear contact with organics, especially the dominant human race.  But what happens when an inquisitive teenage girl stumbles through one of their open bridges and ends up lost on Cybertron?

This was an idea I had ever since I heard that John Goodman was going to be providing the voice for Hound, the gung-ho military Autobot from Transformers: Age of Extinction, and my first thought was doing a Monsters, Inc. parody.

I started off with the promotional render of Hound, and recolored him a nice, Sully blue.  All that I needed to do then was come up with a robotic Mike Wazowski, and of course, Boo.  I opted to make her a teenager this time, because having a toddler running around with 20+ foot tall robots is admittedly a little frightening!

Though I didn't place a lot of visual cues in the design (if anyone is curious), Autobot Mike would have transformed into a searchlight.

Base image retouch, and additional characters painted on Photoshop CS3 with a Genius G-Pen 450.

I had no idea that Goodman played Hound and I know every actors’ bot. I feel pretty stupid that I didn’t realize this soo

Didn't actually thought of this, i mean i did knew that John Goodman did Sully's voice as well, but thinking them as Transformers, it's actually clever XD

Draw me this with random black long haired human female and Ironhide and you will be my hero. I swear that is how I imagine him and a human companion act like. This is by far my fav thing ever on the internets. Need one with Ironhide LOL

That, especially coming from a Mickey Mouse avatar, makes it especially cool.  Thanks!

I'm now wondering how a iteration of Transformers would be received, if the story itself didn't involve a Great War...?
