The most interesting part of this big picture was when Bob pondered how a character with a naturalist and pacifist view would develop in a race of sentiant machine people. Ive had similar thoughts even when I was a kid and ultimately the explanation I came up with was before the war started the characters all had to have some kind of job or calling. Ive always imagined that there are a number of autobots and decepticons that never wanted war. However over thousands of years they've adapted to it, maybe beach comber just never got to that point. As for being a character that enjoys nature well the transformers have always been a species that have visited and interacted with other planets. Its not beyond imagination that one of them would actually enjoy more natural settings (and thats not even touching the more natural settings that are found on cybertron). That's my theory anyway
Ive had similar thoughts about Soundwave being an espionage expert and Jazz being a musician before the war began.
