Transformers: Combiner Wars is an Internet-based animated series created by Machinima, Inc. in partnership with Hasbro for the go90 Streaming media format from Verizon. As implied by the title, it is a branch of the Transformers franchise, specifically the Transformers: Generation 1 continuity family. It is based on the Combiner Wars toys as well as the storyline from IDW Publishing's comic book line The Transformers.
It will be followed by two confirmed sequel series, Transformers: Titans Return and Transformers: Power of the Primes, as part of the Prime Wars Trilogy.
Several decades after the Great War between the Autobots and the Decepticons on Earth, the two factions have disbanded and a three-member ruling council rules in place of the absent leaders Optimus Prime and Megatron. An uneasy peace has been created on Cybertron, but the rise of the Combiners threatens to bring it to an end. Prior to the events of the series, Optimus Prime and Megatron have engaged each other in a final duel, while the new combiner Victorion has been born from the Enigma of Combination. The new ruling council consists of Starscream, Rodimus Prime, the Mistress of Flame (a new female Transformer from the planet Caminus); Caminus has been devastated by the Combiner Wars, which has set the formidable Windblade on a quest for vengeance. Windblade, once an official 'City Speaker' to the gigantic 'Titans' is tired of the bureaucratic non-action of the Council, who seem to sit idly while her people and her cities on Caminus perish. She decides that the only way to end the Combiner Wars is to take matters into her own vengeful hands.
