Description

Decepticon General, Overlord, in his Base mode from the Transformers Legends Mobile Game

I don't know much about the game, but apparently Overlord was a featured character in the story titled "Fan Favorite." The write-up states:

A mysterious force has compelled a group of Autobots and Decepticons to do battle. Allegiance doesn't matter here, only victory. Will Overlord and his allies stand triumphant, or will you defeat them and win the day?

"The characters in this event were chosen by Mobage via an online poll. The results reflect a mishmash of pre-TFTM ensemble players (Wheeljack, Rumble) and characters who have gotten a lot of face time in recent IDW material (Overlord, Misfire).

The poll was held on website droidgamers.com between October 9 and October 18. The rules around allowable picks specified no well-known characters (a list of characters was given), no one with more than two modes, no Combiners or "Duo Changers", and that they must be from the Generation 1 continuity family.

Mobage circumvents their own "no triple-changers" rule by using Overlord's combined "battle station" mode as his alternate form."

Base! Mobile General?
Card shows, what Matere knows
Once again, back is the incredible
Lines Marcelo
The alternate mode 3, card art Matere Number One
The poll said, "Freeze!" and it’s all fun
Can I tell 'em that I never really allegiance?
But it's card packs that Transformers booster deck spun
Now they got me in to hell cards on record, they sell
Cause a brother like me said, "Well
Megatron's a prophet and the Overlord’s to listen to
What he can trade to you, what would Legends do is follow for now"
Power of the mobile, game
"Make a miracle, he, pump the art missles"
Collect set, wet paint, we're gonna win
Check it out, yeah y'all, here’s pencils again

Overlord! Brings the noise!

A transformer that transforms into some thing other than a moving vehicle? Is this the first one? I can't remember if any of the G1 bots could do that. This looks like a really rare piece of Transformers art. I guess the rest of the art was done digitally? Pretty neat, either way!

Omega Supreme, Metroplex and Trypticon all had base modes (before Overlord). Overlord is less known in the US, b/c he was more prominent in Japanese series like Masterforce.

I'm guessing some of this must have been digitally enhanced for the final card/online game, but I also assume there's a pencil version of the main robot mode out there as well.

Thanks as always for your scholarship. I do remember Metroplex, now that you mention it, though not the other two. Still, that's not many Transformers who don't trandform into vehicles.

And yeah, for sure there's some pencil art out there for the robot art on the card.
