"Code of Honor" ranks up there as arguably the greatest Transformers episode ever. I would rank it up there with the best of G1, even the original movie.
If you remember how this came about it really says something for Dinobots character, He gave Megatron the Disk when it looked like Predacon victory was inevitable. Now he fights to the death to amend his mistake.
@AeonMagnus Ironic, isn't it? The animators watched that scene a trillion times to get everything right...and they fail to spot Rattrap in his pre-Transmetal form. Figures...
Also, Rhinox was on crack this episode. Notice how fast he's running in the group shot of the Maximals racing to the valley?
And thus ends the most epic warrior ever sparked...and thus begins Megatron's real decline into insanity. The way he snarls his final line SCREAMS degrading mental stability.
@babbs777 Dinobot: I tried to gain favour from you. But nothing was ever good enough. No matter how many battles I fought, you always found fault. Then I saw how Optimus treated his men, and I realized he was a leader of integrity. Unlike you.
David Kaye to me actually beats out Frank Welker as my favorite Megatron voice don't get me wrong Frank Welker is classic Megatron but David Kaye gave this suave air to Megatron that made him such a badass and he also has one of the best "yes" of any villain.
Not to take away from dinobot but does this ever make people wonder if rat trap wasnt supposed to go transmetal cause they obviously had this scene already planed out or someone was just lazy and didnt go back over it as hes in his non transmetal form here.
I remember watching this when I was a fifth grader and damn near crying when I learned that Dinobot actually died after this. Part of me didn't like him simply because he was a decepticon and I assumed that he was going to backstab 'em one-a these days just to overtake Megatron (I figured he was a rendition of Starscream)...to think that Dinobot kicked everyone's ass and saved the humans before he kicked it...makes this one of the most epic times I ever witnessed. Dinobot-The true warrior
Dinobot was my favorite as a kid, and they fortunately decided that unlike other characters that got the bridge dropped on them to make room for new characters, he got a crowning moment of awesome. The only way it could have been made better is he actually killed all the Predacons, but then we couldn't have the rest of the series.
I remember crying like no tomorrow as a kid because Dinobot was my favourite character from Beast Wars. Let Dinobot be remembered as a hero to many. Till all are one.
Later in the season Megatron reveals that the disk contained instructions from the Decepticon leader. Which he used to convinced the reprogrammed Ravage to side with Megatron. It may also contain the location of the Ark, along Optimus Prime vulnerable to any Decepticon or Predacon.
@gof666 Sounds about rite to me, I just was kinda thinking.....if its something physical - can't ya catch and put it back or in another bot? But I get it, its not just what represents his life force, it represents his soul - making transformers real living things - just of another kind. Nicely done, thanks - I get it now. BW was a bit more out of the box then the other shows - thats why I loved it so much
The CGI was pretty if-fy back then but BW was a truly well told story that I really felt rewarded for watching the whole series untill the end. Great story, loved it. Dino-bot was quite the beast. Megatron was really well spoken, I forgot about that. Haha, what a lamer tho - just like all Megas and Gavitrons always took advantage of the weak and never fought fair.

@Arballo420Cali one by one:
1. They fly out to join The Matrix. I think it's a cross between Valhala & the gardens of Eden, TF style.
2. BW was much more symbolic and, well, philosophical then the others series.
3. As far as I know, no. The Matrix was metioned, but there was no extra show like with Dinobot.
(If I messed anything up, please correct me.)
