So, I've done a little bit more of a research through some of the old and new TF comic books and I've discovered some of the things that might potentially change feats/powers of some of the Transformers via scaling off of another Transformer's feats. Some of these might come off as hyperbolic statements, but given the fact that some of such kind had already made it as official feats for some Transformers(such as Scourge stating that whoever possesses the Matrix possesses the power of 500 000 Transformers) and so on. Now then, here are some interesting things I've discovered and one thing I am still willing to stand for from my previous statements since I believe it was rendered incalculable for no solid reason.
Either way, here they are:
1. First comes Thundercracker defeating an Ore-13 absorbed Dire Wraith(Or whatever their name is anyway) The Dire, before having itself thrown into the sun states that it would take a heat of at least a million of stars in order to burn it. It might come off very hyperbolic, given how pathetic it's death is, but here are my arguments. I still believe that, just like in the case with Scourge, it did feel enough power in itself to feel that it is capable of doing so. After all, this creature is powered by Ore-13, so, for all we know, it really could be this durable, plus the point in it's defeat was still played by Thundercracker's arm unleashing it's full arsenal on the creature, both ripping it's stomach and wings apart and propelling it so hard, it got impaled on the Washington Monument. Here are the screenshots
With majority of the character profiles on Transformers already being characters who are canonically stronger than Thundercracker, this could easily be used to scale their powers off of him.
2. Optimus Prime was stated to be in 616's Thor's power league. Chris Metzen clearly states that Optimus Prime is a perfect fusion of Thor's sheer power, Iron Man's technological adaptability and Captain America's morals. Now, clearly he was refering to the 616's Thor, being a comic book writer there is literally no reason for him to mention any other version (Including the movie version and etc.) Plus the 616 ver. is the most known and common adaptation of Thor that almost any comic book lover is familiar with. Plus, knowing how specific the character was chosen to portray Optimus, he obviously had every reason to state that Prime is as powerful as Thor is when it comes to Optimus Prime's sheer strength and power overall.
3. And the final one is the feat I've already mentioned once before that I feel was downed for no good reason and now I am going to explain why. Now, I am going to give a bit more insight into this one and explain everything as it happens in the comic step by step.
1)
this first bit was chosen by me to prove some of the points I am going to make in the pages that are going to come next. Here we can clearly see that Optimus Prime doesn't even have his paint scratched by the shots that the decepticons fire at him, as the end result he doesn't even have any sorts of burn marks on his armor plating, literally nullifying the effect of the blasts.
2)
it is only by Megatron's fusion cannon that Optimus is struck and actually damaged.
3)
Now for the main event itself. Here the comic itself clearly states that the Space Bridge works like a wormhole, literally defying both space and time, infact so much so, that it's said to be one of a kind.
4) Here Optimus comes last to be transported and before he is, he sabotages the space bridge by destroying one of it's components, causing it to malfunction and never work again after he himself is transported over to the point of designation. I've specifically covered two parts of this page with red circles to point out that they clearly weren't the shots from the decepticon guns that caused Prime any serious final injuries, but rather the portal itself. As we can see, Megatron doesn't take a part in shooting Prime before he disappears into the wormhole portal, but they are the same weak decepticon blasters that couldn't even phase him earlier on. We can clearly see him standing while taking them. On the second panel, however, we can see shards flying out from Optimus' chest as a lighting energy of the portal strikes him right into the chest cavity, basically having the energy that defies both time space endlessly hit Optimus until he is finally transported.
5)
Here we can see that it was, indeed, the wormhole itself that struck Optimus over and over as he was being transported to the rest of the autobots. It only makes sense that it went frenzy on him as the space bridge was malfunctioning, therefore not being able to properly contain the energy of the wormhole itself, casuing cataclysm as end result. I strongly believe that it should be counted as a feat as Galvatron as well didn't have any sorts of real calculations to make assumptions off of in his case, but him only being taken away by the forces of space and time was still counted in despite that.
My point is that the time of for how long it had been happening to Galvatron was obviously not specified, yet the fact that it took space/time to rip him apart was out of question, so I don't see why would this feat be doubted as well, seeing as everything I've explained above literally did happen to Optimus, doesn't matter for how long, surviving something that rips both time and space apart for even seconds while already being almost fatally wounded is more than impressive.
