This always made me curious to know how Optimus Prime, Megatron, Starscream, Scourage and Cyclonus would all look if they were human. I know for sure Scourge would have a mustache. And I always pictured Optimus with a goatee.
Notice how when the action takes place on Earth and many humans are involved the score is that of the cartoon before the movie with a bunch of suspenseful, sudden horns. And when the action takes place in space it's the score of the animated movie with all kinds of electric guitar riffs.
wait if he turned human what happened to the matrix? if its still in his body then wouldnt it just, stop? because doesnt the matrix need a form to occupy?
Despite being turned into humans, at times the Autobots' voice are still synthesized. Early animation models end up being used irregularly in this episode; most notable is Arcee's. In one scene, when Magnus' voice is talking, Rodimus' mouth is the one being animated. The background is inconsistent, switching around from day to night.
Ok .. Were to begin ... 1 when rodanous goes over the sensor it's red when the lady bot goes over it is pink :s ... 2 they find matching to there colors outfits and they fit WTF lol 3 people can actually stay in the autobots and drive them ... What ?!?
Rodimus and Springer are mole small in 2:19-2:20. However, in the next frame where Rodimus ran away in 2:23-2:25 he was probably at least an NBA center.
@shermanvermin76 .........Cobra really never though that the big evil giant robots might b able to help them out? well then again given some of the Cobra Commander's other schemes...that wopuld've been epic though wouldn't it. the Joe's vs the Autobots then they team up to take down a teamed up Cobra and Deceptacons. I dunno why TV shows from the 80s and 90s just didn't give the fans what they wanted
OOOhh. This is different than what I saw on TV when it first came on. When they jump out of the trash bin, they were naked; which is why they steal the clothes. I see that someone remastered the film to appease sensitivities.
@zivjax lol "remastered" I think your memory is faulty, chief. Nobody redrew any animation and they sure didn't show naked people in a kids' cartoon in 1986.
@Bremen25 You'll like to know, Optimus Prime DOES come back to life at the end of part 1 of The Return of Optimus Prime but, unfortunately for you, Starscream's only TWICE in season 3 (where he's a ghost after Galvatron killed him in the movie).
He nearly comes back to life near the end of Ghost in the Machine until Galvatron blasts him AGAIN.
The dude that kicked his guy out sounded like Cliffjumper. lol. And You would think Arcee and Springer would be estatic to be human. They can finally get busy.
I wish Hasbro could have done a better crossover with either season 1 or season 2 of the transformers before the Unicron Movie itself since both G.I. Joe and the Transformers franchise were dubbed successful. But did Hasbro do that? No of course not, They were too busy selling stupid merchendises.
@DisheveledWombat I don't CARE if there's no Kup in this episode since HE'S not my favourite (nor are Blurr and especially not Wheelie, he was more for a YOUNGER audience; he's so unpopular he deserved to have his face in the MIDDLE of his torso).
Oh and I don't like Windcharger since HE was explicitly killed at the beginning of the movie (and Shockwave WAS killed when Unicron transformed to a massive robot in the same episode; the Insecticons aren't my favourites, nor are Tracks or Skids).
(comment continued) @DisheveledWombat I additionally don't like Smokescreen, Bluestreak or Outback (I don't even like the five individual Aerialbots or the form of Superion, the five individual Protectobots or the form of Defensor, the five individual Predacons or the form of Predaking, the five individual Terrorcons or the form of Abominus, the five individual Technobots or the form of Computron, Quake, Crankcase, Snarler, Pipes, Swerve, Tailgate
(THIRD comment!) @DisheveledWombat I don't like the Seacons or the form of Piranacon, Hardhead, Brainstorm, Chromedome, Highbrow, Triggerhappy, Slugslinger, Misfire, Mindwipe, Snapdragon, Weirdwolf, Pounce & Wingspan, Fastlane & Cloudraker, Pointblank, Sureshot, Crosshairs or Punch aka Counterpunch and I don't like Runabout & Runamuck.
@JmanRBS Though the highlight there are no Decepticons in this episode is THEY could have become human (though the only Decepticons I WOULDN'T want to see become human would be Galvatron who was formerly known as 'Mega'tron and the five INDIVIDUAL Stunticons; this is even one of the highlights Starscream got killed AGAIN in the middle of season 3 but I just don't think about if MENASOR was in this episode since I keep saying I prefer the five INDIVIDUAL Stunticons)
(comment continued) @JmanRBS ANOTHER highlight that red robot was only seen like 4 seconds is I would HATE to see HIM become a human (he's even the only AUTOBOT I'd hate to see anything bad happen to)
The crossover you expected ... GI JOE and Transformers ... Who likes Transformers MORE than GI JOE ?

So, if Kup was in this episode, would he need a wheelchair and would he forget what was going on halfway through the episode?
