Across the far reaches of space on the planet Cyphertron a war rages between two factions. The Heroic Artobots, lead by Optimal Primecoat. The Artobots uphold the 4 pillars of hip hop, creation and education. Against them, Vand-Ill, heinous leader of the Vill-Ons who hold to the philosophies of guns, bitches, bling and bombing.

It is a war that has raged over eons with heavy casualties on both sides of the wall.

And now they are here on earth.

This is the war........of the Cansformers.

Optimal Primecoat is the leader of The Artobots by default rather than desire. Wanting nothing more than an end to the war so he may focus on making art not war.

"Art is life. Life is Beautiful."
