* AScarToRemember: He has a deep gash across his front from when he was ambushed by his former friends. Given that it should be easy to repair, he's clearly keeping it as a reminder. It also slashes through his old Autobot symbol, symbolising that he's no longer one of them.

[[folder:Transformers Animated: Shattered Glass]]

->An inversion of the usual Transformers Animated universe, where Optimus Prime's severed head was found by one Isaac Sumdac, who promptly used the stolen tech to take over the world.

!!Decepticons

!!!Megatron

* BigGood: By inference alone.
* TheGhost: Not seen, but he was mentioned.

!!!Soundwave

->One of Sumdac's drones gone wild, but recruited by Megatron to join his side.

!!Autobots

!!!Optimus Prime

An exile from the Cybertron Elite Guard, who found the Allspark, only to loose his head, crash land on Earth, and spend the next several decades helpless as a human used him and his technology for his own purposes.
----
* BeardOfEvil
* TheExile
* MadeASlave: When he did get his body back, he was enslaved by Sumdac, the same as the rest of his Autobots.
* OffWithHisHead: His head got removed on his crash-landing. He did eventually get his body back, but it didn't help much.

!!!Bumblebee

A small, quiet sadist
----
* DirtyCoward: Hates fighting
* MadeASlave: Complete with ExplosiveLeash.

!!!Bulkhead
----
* TheBrute: Like Lugnut.
* TheGhost

!!!Prowl
----
* MadScientist: Like Starscream, he's made a clone army of himself.
* TheGhost

!!!Ratchet
----
* TheGhost
* MadScientist: Like Blackarachnia, he's making some rather curious experiments...

!!!Sari Sumdac

A mysterious protoform Isaac found in his lab, which took human form after attacking him. Isaac then spent the next several years violently experimenting on her. Experimentation with Allspark fragments caused her to grow in size and power... at which point Isaac drafted her into service with the rest of the Autobots.
----
* AbusiveParents: Isaac was a grade-a dick to Sari.
* EyeScream: She did remove one of his eyes.
* JailBait:

!!Decepticons

!!!Megatron

The leader of the Decepticons.
----
* BigGood
* GoodCounterpart: To not only mainverse Megatron, but he's also evocative of mainverse Ultra Magnus.

!!!Starscream

Megatron's loyal second-in-command.
----
* TheLancer: To Megatron.
* GoodCounterpart: To not only mainverse Starscream, but he's also evocative of mainverse Sky Garry, at least according to his color scheme.
* TheStarscream: Averted. [[UndyingLoyalty His loyalty to Megatron is undying.]]

!!!Soundwave

Formerly one of Isaac Sumdac's sonic attack robots, Megatron got a hold of him and turned him to the side of good. Now, he uses his weapons to turn other robots playful and happy. At one point, he tried to brainwash Isaac's Autobots into good with the help of a superhero force known as HYBRID, but Sari and a bunch of hobobots put a stop to it.
----
* AmbiguousSituation: Soundwave still ends up smashed at the end of this version's "Sound and Fury", though it's unknown if Laserbeak or one of his Recordicons still got away with a piece of him.
* BrainwashingForTheGreaterGood: How he tries to get the Autobots to HeelFaceTurn. It doesn't work out.
* HeelFaceBrainwashing: He was presumably reprogrammed by Megatron and co.
* ShoutOut: He apparently tried to brainwash the Autobots with videos of a purple techno-organic dinosaurs. Either that's a reference to ''WesternAnimation/BeastWars'' Megatron and/or ''Series/BarneyTheDinosaur''.

!!Humans

!!!Isaac Sumdac

A human scientist who found a decapitated Transformer's head, and used it to build an empire to try and take over the world.
----
* AbusiveParents: Kept Sari in a cage and experimented on her. Then, once she was old enough, put a Control Collar on her and sent her out to fight alongside the other Autobots.
* BaldOfEvil: Lacks the regular Isaac's hair.
* EvilOverlord: He rules part of Michigan from his Terrordrome, with an army of robots at his beck and call. His ultimate goal is to rule the world.
* EyeScream: Lost an eye to Sari when she was a Protoform.
* EyepatchOfPower
* FatBastard
* MadScientist
