* Shi Woon, protagonist of ''[[The Breaker]]'', takes several huge levels in badass over the course of the story. He starts out as a loser who gets beaten up by bullies daily. After he eats [[A Wizard Did It|a strange pill]] and trains under one of the greatest martial artists in the world, he becomes strong enough to break a cement column with his bare hands and take on other more experienced martial artists. He also learns to stand up for himself and becomes [[The Determinator]], which impresses even the antagonists he cannot defeat. |

* As with the cartoon series, so too with the toy line it's based on. When Transformers makes a new toy of an old character, the advances in manufacturing technology usually mean the toy itself is better. It is also often larger. Recent{{when}} examples include Seaspray, once the [[Aquaman]] of the Autobots, who has a toy that is apparently both his G1 character and a character for the new line, going from an equivalent of Scout to Voyager (two size steps up). This can even happen within a single line. In the ''[[Revenge of the Fallen]]'' toy line, Bludgeon was originally a repaint of Wreckage, a decent mold from the first movie's line, but got his own unique mold which was a full size class larger, more in tune with his fan-favorite G1 self, and dripping with flavor. |
