Certainly is. As is the fella whose feet can be seen in the top right corner, and the lad on the left hand side (although he's down for 'Wave II').
As for the story, DF, it's still in the early stages. Basic premise, though:
Set maybe a couple of hundred years after G1. The war has continued to run, and again, Cybertron has hit a drastic energy crisis, with both sides rapidly losing warriors to 'starvation'. Just in time, however, Scrapper and Long Haul manage to devise a renewable energy source - highly efficient, it renders the user much more powerful (think Nucleon), and it self-replicates, so as long as it is not all used up, stocks continue to replenish themselves.
The Decepticons have a serious advantage now, and are able to reduce the Autobots' ranks even further. The crisis for the Autobots reaches a new peak when Optimus Prime is taken out, and the Creation Matrix is captured.
Now with no Prime, no Matrix, and almost no energy, the Autobots are reduced to surviving on what scraps of power they can find. Jazz takes over as acting commander.
Finally some hope arrives as Wheeljack and Ratchet develop a means of stretching their energon by using it more efficiently. The new process allows two Autobots to combine into a single gestalt entity, which uses considerably less power than the two would burn as individuals. An unexpected side-effect allows the partcipants to share knowledge, skills, and even powers.
They now need to get back the Matrix, as well as a sample of the Decepticons' new super-fuel...
