More moosebots

ink_in_handGot poked for the different moosebot wings types/variations. While it was originally for the small differences for the Titanium Moosebot I already have...
So now there's at least three types of moosebots flying around in my head. The long thin wing is a shape better equipped for long distances and speed in the biological world. And the short broad wing is better for manuverability, though I might drop the tail rudders completely since the one on the head makes 'em redundent. It's theorized that the large crests on many pterosaurs were there for that very reason and with the rudder in the front makes for tighter turns than the same in the back.
They weren't nearly as stubborn as the first one, and I only picked the colors to fill out the color wheel.

Sounds good, I'll see what I can do with it. The chin flap I figure is filled with all sorts of air sensors. Which allow the moosebot to immediately close the iris/turn off their engine if whatever is in the atmosphere could damage their inner workings. Moosebots are skilled enough fliers that loosing their propulsion won't make them crash, or even be deterred.
The way I see it is with the escalation of the war, certain materials became higher in demand. Especially those that don't wear down when exposed to extreme cold (space vehicles and weapons being in high production), so all the easily accessible resources are harvested by the Transformers. The Moosebots, who've used these places for countless eons are suddenly left without, and since they never go underground they can't make use of what can be found there. I also figure that the Moosebots' demand for these minerals is lessened when off Cybertron, where they don't have to deal with acid rain eroding their armor. *blinks* ...I think I have that book, Star Wars: A Field Guide right?
