I'm not familiar enough with transformers to say for sure but can 300 fit on such a small ship?

Depends on the transformers. Like, how large they are to begin with, since they come in all sorts of sizes. Plus, G1 transformers (the ones in this CS) had a habit of having really funky size warping inherent to a lot of their transformations. It wasn't like the Bayverse transformers; these guys basically gave conservation of mass the middle finger, like when Megatron's alternate form was a pistol small enough to be handheld by Starscream. And if I recall, when in robot form, Bee was barely taller than a human, despite being able to turn into a full-sized Bug. G1 transformer shapeshifting was basically magic.

And on top of that, the Ark is about as wide as it is long, so that size might sound a bit small, but it's more generous than it seems compared to so many other sleek and thin starships.
