So, [livejournal.com profile] stunt_muppet posted a great theory about where Optimus's trailer goes when it disappears (it involves a TARDIS). And that reminded me of something that I'd been meaning to post for a while, but I didn't have the proper screencaps until now.

Today in Laurus's Crazy Crossover Theories: G1!Cybertron had some kind of contact with Gallifrey during the Great War.

But at least it's made clear that they are supposed to be large enough to function as transport.

In a wonderful case of "I can't believe this fits in with my nonsense", we know for a fact that both of them were already around during the Golden Age. Old models, perhaps. Because we also get to see bots like these:
