"Popples/Transformers" Crossover Pitch: "A Poppin' Adventure!"

[Philip Gipson]

    

 

This storyline is set after the second season of the classic Transformers cartoon and during the first season of the original Popples cartoon, and is a blend of action and comedy. Here's the plot in full detail:

 

A new chemical developed by Earth's top scientists, called Adrenachrome (lifted entirely from Jedi Gatorcoot's "Banned Transformers Episodes" series on YouTube), is designed to give technology a chance to be even better than before. It's also where the Wagner family lives. Megatron and the Decepticons get wind of the new chemical and decide to subdue its creators. When that's done, they take the chemical back with them and alter it to steal away Earth's energy. Optimus Prime and the Autobots, also learning of the Adrenachrome, go into action and put a stop to the Decepticons' latest plan.

 

The Popples, having been made aware of the ongoing Autobot-Decepticon war on Earth through TV and print news reports, decide to help out the Autobots in their own way -- by being mischievous. Bonnie and Billy Wagner, the Popples' guardians and the only ones who know the Popples' existence, are livid about the latters' decision to get involved in the Transformers' war, but Party and P.C., the leaders of the Popples, remind the siblings that helping others has no limits. Bonnie and Billy relent and let the Popples help the Autobots, on the condition that they all come back safe and sound.

 

The Popples arrive where the Autobots and Decepticons do battle and do their thing. They change themselves into balls and bounce high enough to knock down Megatron and his troops, which surprise Optimus Prime and his own troops. From their pouches the Popples pull out a series of large items to further humiliate the Decepticons. This gives the Autobots the chance to destroy the Adrenachrome and save the Earth, forcing the Decepticons to retreat. The Popples quickly return to Bonnie and Billy, not allowing the Autobots any time to digest what just happened.

 

At the Wagner residence, Bonnie and Billy are grateful that the Popples are alive and in one piece, and they all watch the latest report on TV of the Autobots and Decepticons. To the siblings' relief, there's no mention of the Popples anywhere, and they can all rest easier.

 

The next day there's a knock on the door, and Bonnie and Billy go up to it. Bonnie asks who it is. An Autobot, Bumblebee, introduces himself, and Bonnie opens the door. She and Billy are amazed to see an actual Autobot in their midst. Bumblebee guesses that the "tiny little creatures" that helped thwart the Decepticons belongs to the siblings, who're shocked about it. Bumblebee promises to keep the Popples' existence a secret, as will the other Autobots. Bonnie and Billy thank Bumblebee for his generosity, and he changes to vehicle mode and drives off.

 

Bonnie, Billy, and the Popples all smile knowing that they have new friends who're willing to protect the siblings' secret, and they all embrace one another after Party declares that this day is much more to them than meets the eye.

This sounds like it could be a series.

It's a toy/cartoon franchise from the 1980s.
