https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lKEfFyCF8QE Spike Witwicky is everything the movies' Sam Witwicky wishes he was... including the mind behind his own city that can turn into one of the biggest Transformers of all time. In what was the culmination of his journey from being the Autobots' junior sidekick to their ambassador to Earth, Spike became the saviour of their race when he stayed behind on Nebulos to reprogram Hive equipment and used it to reconstruct one of their old cities into Fortress Maximus, a robot so big that another Autobot (Cerebros) forms his head, with Spike transforming into the head of Cerebros. Upon completion, Spike used Fortress Maximus's flight capabilities to race to Cybertron to save Optimus Prime and everyone else from utter destruction, in part by taking care of Scorponok. Confession: The video above is of a different Fortress Maximus (hence the lack of Spike and the whole "Emissary" thing), but it's the same basic body and all the nicer and more impressive to look at.
