If any of you haven’t figure out what the Heroes Vs Baddies story is based on, it’s the 1986 animated movie of Transformers. Like the Dodgeball story, this story went though changes over the years.
Name changes
(Old names-Current name)
Old Timer-Old Guy
Loyal Villain, Cool Dude-Robot (we don‘t need two people named Villain)
Cavebots-Cavemen(They are not robots in my story)
The Super Dodgeball- The Glowing Tennis ball (How can you fit a dodgeball in your pocket?)
Fast Talker-Hyper Guy
New Captain, Soldier- Both (See below)
Soldier-Green Guy (“Ultra Magnus” became Soldier)
Doctor-Scientist (“Ratchet” became Doctor so “Perceptor” became what‘s closer to his title, Scientist)
Orphan-Rhymer-Jungle Boy-(I suck at writing rhymes)
TV Bikers-Junkmen
Giant Dodge Ball, Giant Horned Demon- Giant Winged Demon
Deleted material
The opening where it said that the Baddies were originally loyalists to the Evil Elf King wasn’t in the original. It was something I added way later on. I wanted the story to have a connection to my Dodgeball story other than it takes place in Cabot High and Dodgeballs as weapons.
Heroes and Baddies were originally Herobots and Evilcons. Too obvious what the story based on and non of the Heroes were robotic. Baddies also had names like Terrorists or The Evils.
Inside Phillips 66, Armor Guy wanted to send a message to his son and say hi to him. Armor Guy isn’t that important so I reduce his role.
The airplane hijack scene was brief with generic characters getting killed . I later added actual characters instead. I didn’t know who these Red Shirts were at the time because I didn’t actually watch G1 beyond the movie at the time. I got into Transformers from Beast Wars. I think I watched the G1 series a year later.
Tough Guy mentioning about getting shot in the head wasn’t in the early versions. It was a joke that who Tough Guy was based on got shot in the head in season 1 and it did nothing to him but in the movie, he died from a mere shoulder wound.
Loyal Villain/Cool Dude/Robot threw cassette tapes that changed into dodgeballs to destroy the radar dish. It changed into him simply throwing strawberry jam on the dish.
During Captain’s death scene, he said, “…And you shall be New Captain.” He just somehow come up at out of nowhere. I later introduce him in a earlier scene and renamed him Soldier. Now I use both names and he got renamed during Captain’s death.
Captain mention “The Super DodgeBall” been passed from Captain to Captain. Who are these Captains?
The Giant Winged Demon was a Giant Dodgeball the floats across Cabot and eats buildings. He transforms into a human-like shape at the story’s climax.
Armor Kid was simply called Kid throughout the story till later at one point in the storyline. During the scene where The Heroes were searching around for parts to repair the plane, Green Guy and Girl gave Kid armor that was the same as his dad’s. He was renamed Armor Kid from that point. I don’t really care about Armor Kid because he based on Daniel from the show who I didn’t like, so I reduce his role.
Speaking about characters we don’t like, after meeting the Cavemen, Jungle Boy joins the group and stays with them throughout the story instead of getting throw out. He is based on Wheelie who is basically the Jar Jar of Transformers long before the Armada brats, Kicker, 2nd Movie Twins, Miko, or Energon Ironhide(he nothing like the other incarnations) came around.
Like the actual movie, our planes went into Giant Winged Demon’s eyes. I think it’s easier to enter through an ear to get to the heart or stomach areas then the eyes and less gross.
