I must admit I 1st misread it as Unicorn, which had the mind boggling for a moment.  Funny, but I was definitely talking about this guy:  Will definitely concede that he probably should’ve had a different name to avoid the confusion. (e.g. “Ultracron” or something like that.) Otherwise, any further thoughts on the scenario itself? For one, I’m pretty sure Unicron devours Unicomplex and scatters the surviving Borg, who’ve now come face-to-face with the greatest threat since Species 8472. Not to mention frightening the reigning powers of the Alpha Quadrant, who’d also no doubt come into contact with Unicron — him devouring their worlds or otherwise. Upon reflection, I’m starting to wonder if sending Unicron to the Star Trek universe is something Q did for lulz; wouldn’t be too out of character for him, if copyright weren’t an issue for the writers.
I've never really been into Transformers so can't really say how things would develop.

Well, just give you an impression of what G1 (i.e., Eighties) Unicron does regularly… Transformers G1 The Movie Unicron Destroys Lithone |

' Chowder Becomes A Contestant On MasterChef Junior'.
Gordon Ramsay struggling to keep his cool:
I never actually watched his programme but did he ever try? Got the impression on a rating of 1-10 his temper was always between 12-15.

Eh, I'd say it was mostly for the cameras. He's a big guy with a mighty set of pipes, so shouting and yelling his lungs out is the natural way to "assert dominance" when dealing with competitors.
Actually, though, I've heard he's pretty patient with kids on screen. The fact he has kids himself might help with that, of course, but apart from anything else, tearing small children down in front of an audience of millions is a bad look. Unfortunately... Chowder's too much of a goofball for most adults to take seriously, so resisting the urge to yell at him or kick him off the show after he pulls one too many dumb stunts would be abnormally difficult.  |

Space, the final frontier. - Sorry too obvious a quote to avoid.  No, but seriously, Dora's been everywhere under the Sun. Touring the world, going to space, time travel twice over, all before she turned 10 — if anything, Indiana Jones should be learning from her rather than the other way around! |

'Actors SI To Their Characters'.
Actors who've portrayed multiple characters throughout their career may choose which character they're reborn into, rather than occupying the bodies of all their characters at once.

'Actors SI To Their Characters'. Actors who've portrayed multiple characters throughout their career may choose which character they're reborn into, rather than occupying the bodies of all their characters at once.
Just to clarify would this be in our world or in the world the character is in? For instance if someone had played Superman or say a character from Star Wars would their character be in that location or here on our Earth? If the latter would any special powers or abilities apply to them here?
For instance Benedict Cumberbatch has played a number of significant roles including Sherlock Holmes in a modern day UK setting Khan - from the film Star Trek into Darkness
Alan Turing - in the 2014 film The Imitation Game Dr Strange in a series of Marvel films.
There are a number of potentially very dangerous/powerful & intelligent people there, especially if they would be on our current time Earth. Even more horrifying I didn't realise that he also played Smaug and Sauron in the Hobbit movies! 
Similarly I could see a lot of older actors especially being glad to be a much younger character, although that might depend on whether their here and can prove their identity - which should be possible if every actor is involved - or less likely if say that would mean their a long time in the past or in a grim and dangerous wartime/medieval or fantasy world say.
Also would the actor be able to reject the idea if none of their roles were that attractive to them? If someone's only played a couple of roles in amateur dramatics say they might not have a lot of choice.
