Why do we love Cheetor?

 

Cheetor Goodies:

 

Flyby Stardancer:

Cheetor is a character that a lot of us who are still growing up in some way can relate to. While he does act immature most of the time (NOT 'childish'), he shows flashes of maturity and a deeper understanding of what it means to be a Maximal. Plus, his Season 1 form is soooooooo CUTE!! ^_^ And he's a cheetah, and cheetahs are always awesome.

Niteflite:

That cat is the only one who grew up at all during the series, although I thought he was much cuter before the designers tried to play around with his TransMetal form. Ah well... He is funny, cute, and just flawed enough to be believable. Also, my favorite animals are cheetahs and giraffes. Best beast mode in the world!"

Amber Dawn:

-Cheetor's just a character. He's easygoing an always willing to make or take a joke. At times he can be irresponsible or reckless, but it's all about that carefree attitude. He's openminded and willing to make new friends, but he's dead-set against his enemies and the most loyal 'bot you'll ever meet.

-He changes throughout the show, learning and growing from a screw-up kid into a quick-witted and intelligent warrior, which makes me admire him as a character. I just love that smooth, cocky bravado he exudes, like he thinks he's so fine. It's cute, and makes for some funny situations.

-He's got some killer lines, and it's cool how his voice and attitude mature as the series progresses. That kid's gonna make some femmebot very happy one day. ;)

-All in all, Cheetor's a great 'bot to have around and a prime example of the Maximal idealogy. And he's just so cute. What's not to love about him? You just wanna grab him and give him a big ole hug.

Greth the Air Dragon:

  1. He’s cute
  2. Funny
  3. He has a great (and happy/funny) personality
  4. He has more fun than a barrel of monkeys (and I bet Rhinox though I’m not sure)
  5. His alt form is a cheetah (I love cheetahs) 
  6. And he has great speed!  

Safeguard:

- He's just the kid of the group. That matures through the show. And that's a great character development. I like the voice, and he looks good, too. And in the early eps of Season 1 he's so adorably stubborn and eager to prove his worth. And in Season 2 the Transmetal enhancement he got just turned him into an awesome flying cat.

Blue Light:

1. He's got a funny attitude. He's most funny when he's talking to Rattrap. 2. He's probably the fastest in the show. 3. He's scrapped Waspinator in some of the funniest ways. 4. He's got a good character development, maturing from a brash kid to a responsible leader.

Blazemane:

        1.) Despite others mistaking him for young and inexperienced, he has proven himself in battle time and time again (think: "The Spark").

       

        2.) He has a determined attitude and won't let himself be pushed around.

 

        3.) He's always just trying to help, even when he messes up.

 

Cheetor Fan fiction:

The Room

- This piece was written a little over four years before I submitted it here, and yet it remains one of my best fanfics. It was originally done as the ONLY creative-writing piece for my 9th grade Honors English class, and it is also the only assignment I've gone back and re-worked after I got the final grade on it in class. I hope you enjoy it!

Sleepwalker

- A device implanted by Tarantulas turns Cheetor into an unknowing assassin. When the plan is discovered, how much will the young Maximal be willing to sacrifice to protect Optimus and free himself from Tarantulas’ control? And will it be worth it?

[Silverbolt snorts]
Cheetor: "and maybe I'm not so nice either."

"Okay, okay, I'll never do that again!... Until the

Cheetor: "Well, I would have, but it was carrying one

Rattrap: "'Sides, he missed."
Cheetor: "Yeah... that too."

"I knew that was good for something, other than
swatttin' flies."
