Legends is a perfect example of this, its half retellings of old G1 cartoons, half IDW stuff pushed in, and a few new things grabbed from other continuities, like grabbing the Prime origin story to them to fill a gap. Still all G1 universe but not all the same universeRID is sometimes its own universe, othertimes it a future of Japanese G1 where some of the characters are co-living with Beast Wars 2 characters. Marvel G1 continuity doesn't work given the existence of the Earthforce comics which either require a lot of massaging to fit, or are their own continuity. Goldbug has two origin stories depending if you're in the US or Europe.Stuff is compartmentalised, and its that we should focus on. The individual stories that come from such, not the big overarching thing.</blockquote>
