Much older. A larger robot that carries a smaller one that unfurls into a four-legged killer animal bot dates back at least to Transformers 1984 (Ravage).

Why did I have to get into Transformers in 2019? Now I’m seeing plots everywhere. Imagine if I’d gotten into the Munsters instead; we’d have Frankenstein by now instead of discount Soundwave.

There already is a drone modeled after notorious trickster/traitor Starscream. I have a love-hate relationship with 2020s humanity although it has more than made up for a childhood with minimal Transformers exposure.
