Universal stream

The Transformers multiverse consists of at least 15,962,782 cataloged universal streams (1,176,325 of which have "come to termination"), according to the TransTech Cybertronians' exhaustive records. There are at least 59,927,225 realities that the TransTech Cybertronians have yet to catalog. Bug Bite claims that there are fifteen quadrillion concurrent realities.

Deciphering the terminology
Each universal stream's name consists of three parts, beginning with a noun which refers to the continuity family of origin, a number that indicates the "real world" date of creation, and a Greek letter that denotes the form of media. For example, "Primax 984.0 Gamma" refers to the Generation 1 Marvel Comics continuity, with "Primax" referring to the Generation 1 continuity family, "984.0" indicating a publication date of September 1984 (with "0" indicating an unknown day of publication), and "Gamma" denoting a comic book series.

List of known continuity family indicators:


 * Aurex — the Unicron Trilogy continuity family.
 * Gargent — the GoBots continuity family.
 * Malgus — the Animated continuity family.
 * Nexus — the cluster where the TransTech world of Axiom Nexus resides.
 * Primax — the Generation 1 continuity family.
 * Quadwal — the "real world".
 * Tyran — the live-action movie continuity family.
 * Viron — the Robots in Disguise continuity family.
 * Xobitor — the, uh, Robotix family.
 * Yayayarst — the Go-Bots continuity family.

Supplied by writers Greg Sepelak and Trent Troop, a list of Greek letters and the media to which they refer:


 * Alpha — animated series
 * Beta — tech spec/toy/pack-in comic only ("box")
 * Gamma — comic book series
 * Delta — motion picture/live action
 * Epsilon — club/convention fiction
 * Zeta — text stories, storybooks and other prose works (printed)
 * Eta — radio/audiocentric universes, books on tape
 * Theta — live performance/spoken word
 * Iota — Internet-only information (not involved with club/convention)
 * Kappa — games (video and otherwise)

Using this information, we could, in theory, determine the names of yet-unnamed universes on our own. For example, the Robots in Disguise cartoon continuity would be Viron 901.8 Alpha. The exceptions to this are the Kre-O continuity, the Bot Shots continuity, and the Aligned continuity family, for which the number and Greek letter may be determined, but whose clusters are thus far unnamed. The Aligned continuity family is apparently considered independent of the Multiverse concept by Hasbro, so the universal stream concept may not even be relevant to this/these universe(s).
