Geeks:

Steve "Megatron" Phillips

Mike “TFG1" Blanchard

Hello and welcome to the 11th episode of the

TFG1 podcast recorded on April 3rd, 2009. I am

your host, Michael Blanchard. Everybody welcome

to the 11th episode had a couple of different

changes and couple of new Content types for the

TFG1 podcast first of all first announcement

is that we have gone weekly Only because Steve

and I really want to get into the movie review

podcast We're going to be doing that is the M

wire movie we can review Which will premiere

this July 11th 2009 which is a Saturday I've

had a format change for season 3. The rest of

season 2 will still be the paragraph yawning

synopsises, unfortunately, because I really don't

feel like going back and changing the whole thing.

and then again I would have to go back and watch

all the episodes again. So yeah, that's pretty

much it for general chat and email. We did have

an email this past episode, episode 10. Thank

you very much for that. Hopefully to get more

email in the future as the episodes progress.

uh... currently working on episode twenty one

script uh... let's see what else there really

isn't that much else to talk about uh... actually

i'm going to be doing a display case in this

episode and that's up next this is the display

case haven't done display case in a while i think

it was the first couple of episodes that i had

talked about uh... botcon uh... shatterglass

optimus and shatterglass erotimus uh... i don't

know i just haven't really thought about doing

display case after a while and then i now that

i've started getting figures again or whatever

even though i've stopped if that makes sense

uh... i figured i would do one only because i'm

kind of pissed off right now This has nothing

to really do with G1. It's just, you know, display

case. It's all about the toys. Well, yesterday,

or two days ago, I was at Walmart and they had

one Transformers animated blur left. I was like,

okay, it's only $12 .88. I mean, for Christ's

sake. And it's a deluxe figure and it's blur.

So I figure, okay, well, I'll get it. And I get

it and get it home. Two days, I leave it in the

packaging. This morning or this afternoon I decide

to take him out of the packaging First of all

the car mode is awesome second of all Wow, I

actually sound like blur there for a minute first

of all from the show anyway second of all The

transformation is fucking Horrendous. It's super,

super complex. I mean, folks, I am a 29 -year

-old male and I've been playing with toys my

entire life. But I have never come across anything

this fucking complex to transform. My boy, as

of right now, has no legs. He looks like Lieutenant

Dan without the wheelchair. I'm sorry to say,

you know, that's just the way it is. The legs,

in the midst of transforming him, the legs popped

off. And yeah, they look like they can pop back

on, but I can't get them back on. I don't know

what I'm doing wrong. So as of right now, Blur

has no legs. He is just a body with arms. And

the little energy shield saw fama jig that he

comes with? Yeah, no. I don't like that. That's

just freaking stupid. I like the shield itself,

and I like the fact that whenever eventually

I get the legs attached to him again, or somebody

helps me attach his legs to his body again, I

will probably just have him viewed with the shield.

I really like the Autobot Elite Guard symbol.

It's really cool. I am glad that they are doing

stuff with the animated line that is not stickers.

I was one of my main complaints with the G1 lines.

They're all stickers that you have to apply.

And as some people that listen to the podcast

will know, I am not exactly savvy with stickers

and stuff like that there. So yeah. But overall,

I'm glad I have this figure. very glad that I

actually took pictures of him in his car mode

before I transformed him because most of the

ones that most of the figures I have now once

they get transformed into robot mode that's it

that's pretty much it so yeah also I wanted to

talk about universe cyclonus switching gears

for a minute universe cyclonus is something that

I was hesitant in getting The reason why I was

hesitant in getting him was because I had seen

a couple of bad YouTube reviews, and I wasn't

really thrilled with the way he looked. At first

I thought he was very not G1 -ish, but I, in

my little adventure to Target one day, I went

up there and saw him, and he was only, I think,

$12? $11? I don't know. He was fairly cheap.

Not to say... That that's a bad thing, but you

know whatever So I got him and I Like the jet

mode or the shuttle mode or whatever he's supposed

to be But I like the robot mode a hell of a lot

better I just do nightstick is really cool. He

comes with nightstick which was his Head or target

master from g1 which is really nice, and I really

enjoy the robot mode. It's pretty awesome Um,

it's very, now that I have the figure myself,

it's very, very G1 -esque. Um, actually with

me watching more of Season 3 right now, uh, to

read up the scripts for the podcast, I am noticing

a lot of similarities between Universe Cyclonus'

figure and the G1 cartoon of Cyclonus. My only

problem right now is I can't get the motherfucker

to stand up! don't know what I'm doing wrong

I have the legs posed correctly and he just will

not stand up on his own he wants to basically

fall fucking over on his fucking face I've tried

moving the waist back so he's not so top -heavy

wow he stands up hallelujah everybody yay holy

shit I finally got the motherfucking thing to

stand up correctly woohoo Damn. So anyway, those

are my two purchases of recently. I haven't purchased

anything else, and I probably won't, seeing as

how, like I've said plenty of times before, I'm

currently on a very, very fixed income. And seeing

as how my bills are pretty much skyrocketed.

Anyway, that's beside the point. So yes, that

is display case. I will be posting pictures on

the PredaconEmpire .com forums under the TFG1

Podcast subforum and in the display case thread.

I will be posting them in the display case thread

at PredaconEmpire .com forums. So everybody can

see. post the pictures of cyclonus but I will

post my pictures that I've taken of legless blur

so yeah that is the display case is unnecessary

the paralyzing effect will wear off shortly what

do you intend to do with us why sell you of course

how else will I get the energon I need to power

this ship not to mention these chambers which

remove and restore the free will of your companions

I can't even beat my own machine anymore and

I had it fixed so I could cheat. I'll show you

how it's done. Very well, Autobot. But if you

lose, you lose your very existence. I love a

good sport. So we're gonna get into some episodes

today the first up is the gambler to synopsize

this episode This episode picks up where child's

play left off now. This is truly Showing that

the episodes are completely out of order Whether

it was production -wise, aerodate -wise, I'm

not sure. Because I even mentioned in episode

10 that one of the other episodes in that podcast

episode was going to be this episode. And it

wasn't. So yeah. Anyway, this episode picks up

where Child's Play left off with Prime and the

other Autobots in a toy rocket blasting through

space. When the rocket runs out of power, the

Autobots are just floating through space. All

of a sudden they're in a tractor beam and brought

about a strange spaceship They are then imprisoned

and their will is taken over by Bosch the captain

of the ship He is a gambler and wants to sell

the Autobots for energon to power his ship and

his energy draining machines Smoke screen breaks

out of the enclosure. Oh Yeah, that's right smoke

screen was in this episode. I don't know I completely

forgot about that and he and Bosch strike a deal

apparently Smokescreen is excellent at gambling

Bosch shrinks the Autobots and they head to a

gambling planet at the gambling planet Bosch

and Smokescreen strike out and all the good gambling

establishments. They have to go to the dark side

of the planet where a lord will possibly entertain

their offerings. However, Bosch says his offer

is too steep a price. Smokescreen accepts, though.

And he and Bosch head to the machines to gamble

with the energon chips that they have. uh...

the alien life form that is kinda like a pit

boss sees smokescreen's little connection dealy

and removes it without him knowing and they lose

everything so the other autobots become lord

gykenes slaves to fight in the pits astrotrain

dirge and ramjet land on the gambling planet

and they head out in search of energon an autobot

bounty hunter is tracking them and the little

worm Oh, okay. And a little worm that works for

Lord Gikini is saved by the bounty hunter. Smokescreen

sees this robot and notices that he has an Autobot

symbol. Smokescreen stops the fellow Autobot

and asks him who he is. The Autobot introduces

himself. He is called Defcon. Defcon tells the

story of how he left Cybertron millions of years

ago. It is now a bounty hunter tracking some

bad Decepticons. On a little side note, defcon

is one of my uh... is one of my uh... animation

cells that came with the rhino sets and i didn't

know who the hell it was until i saw this episode

the ones he is tracking are the ones that just

arrived on the gambling planet astrotrain dirge

and ramjet At Lord Gikini's establishment, the

Decepticon jets are talking with him. Durjan

Ramjet tell the Lord that Megatron is very displeased

with him and that the Decepticon leader believes

that Gikini is skimming Energon off the top.

The jets learn of the Autobots fighting the A

- Animal aliens or animal aliens or I don't know.

It's strange animals slash I don't know what

the hell it is anyway That evening and they want

to stick around to see it guy Kenny and his subordinates

Inject the Autobots with unstable energon so

they will put on a good show But not win prime

is up first and as guy Kenny predicted He only

lasts two minutes, but the Lord stops the battle

and brings out Inferno to begin the second round.

Smokescreen has had enough and he exits the stands

of the arena with Bosch in tow. Outside, Smokescreen

drives around to the car entrance of the arena

and gives a smoke show clearing the arena out.

Geik and he cannot believe this and he tells

Dersh and Ramjet to get after Smokescreen. Bosch

thinks that they've gotten away. When the Decepticon

jets start attacking them. DEFCON shows up and

fires on the Decepticons, damaging them and allowing

Smokescreen and Bosch to get away. The Minion

of Gykeny shows up and tells them that the Lord

and the Decepticons are at the Tarmac ready to

leave. And a bot named AstroTrain is parked there.

The Autobots get there and the battle ensues

again. AstroTrain gets re -energized, but Smokescreen

does his smoking thing. and the Decepticons retreat

without the stunned Autobots. Bosch says that

he will take them back to Earth in his ship,

but why not have some R &R first as the episode

ends? Uh, yeah, I don't know. Now for my thoughts

on this episode. First off, I'm really getting

tired of Transformers in Space. The in -space

episodes with the original cast of robots is

wearing thin on me. Secondly, at the end of the

episode, after Prime and the others are freed

from Bosch's control, when they transform, Perceptor

is with them and, uh, hello, when did the mic,

oh, when did microscopes gain wheels to drive

on rough terrain? I do love the animation that

the creators have done in the majority of the

season 2 episodes that I've reviewed so far.

As I've said before and I'll say continue to

say it. It's getting better. It is getting so

much better It's very strange to me. I know this

cartoon happened back in 1984 But it's very strange

to me how long it usually takes animators producers

whatever You know two or three seasons of a TV

show cartoon whatever to get their stride You

know you think that they've done this before,

but you know what you want I can kind of Put

it as passe because obviously it was one of the

first it was the first transformers cartoon I

love seeing astrotrain episodes. He is my number

one favorite decepticons He is one of my number

one favorite decepticons long live the triple

changes We are introduced to DEFCON, an Autobot

bounty hunter in search of Decepticons throughout

space. I'm glad I've gone back and watched these

episodes, because in one of the DVD packages,

which I've already mentioned in the synopsis

of this episode, there is an animation cell of

a Transformer that I didn't know who it was.

Well, it turns out it was DEFCON. With all these

in -space episodes, what the fuck are the Autobots

and humans on Earth doing? I bet I find out in

the next reviewed episode today. Fascinating!

Fascinating? You better do something before he

- Krimzik! Krimzik! Yes, Krimzik! You will be

my ultimate weapon against the Autobots! Up next

is Krimzik! Before I start the synopsis, I gotta

say I really, really laughed my ass off in this

episode. It is just hilarious. So, to synopsize

this episode. We begin this episode with Megatron

using some sort of energy conductors to create

something. What he creates is an energy -killing

monster called Krimzik. The Decepticon later

plans on using this against the Autobots. He

tells Thrust to prepare for flight, and they

fly over Autobot headquarters, and Megatron lets

Krimzik out of his circuit trap box. Thrust flies

in a very low to the main entrance of Autobot

headquarters and drops off Krimzik, the little

energy destroyer, wreaks havoc on the Autobot

space. Um, first of all, let's see. The Autobots

in a previous episode have put in motion sensors

and detection type stuff, so how the fuck could

Thrust get that friggin' close without them knowing

it? Uh, Krimzik short circuits a ton of Autobots,

Sparkplug thinks of an idea and runs off. He

comes back with an insulator compound, which

he sprays Optimus Prime with. They then get to

work insulating all of the Autobots. Only Blaster,

Bumblebee, Inferno, and Prime are left functioning

in the base. Krimzik has virtually destroyed

everything in the Autobot base, then he jumps

right through Teletran's screen and ends up in

Japan. Omega Supreme gets to the base and they

forget to insulate him. Sparkplug stays behind

to see if he can get any of the other Autobots

functional again. In Japan, the Autobots arrive

and Krimzik pops out of the sand. He tries getting

into the Autobots but can't and then Prime realizes

that Omega isn't protected. Kremzik goes after

the giant Autobot and gets him to crash land

on the beach. Kremzik then spots a bullet train

and heads for it. Optimus Prime tells the other

Autobots to grab on as he transforms and they

head after the train. At the train station stop

the train is stopped by the Autobots but Kremzik

escapes. In the city, the little energy bastard

heads for an arcade. The little energy bastard.

I can't believe I wrote that in there. Oh, that's

funny. He heads for an arcade and then heads

into a manufacturing plant that develops electronics

inside the plant. The operations manager says

to try and use radio waves to disrupt the creature.

Blaster wants to overload him with his own power,

but the doctor says no, he is just feeding the

creature's energy. Then all these little crimsy

clones come out of Blaster and they run amok.

The Decepticons, in this what would be the best

described as a B -plot, have had an energy magnet.

that they're going to use to drain the world's

energy. Back in Japan, Optimus Prime gets an

idea to rejoin all the little Krimzeeks, however,

this backfires when all of them become one giant

Krimzeek. And it starts wreaking more havoc on

the cities after the Autobots are drained of

their energy from Megatron's energy magnet. Prime

realizes that Krimzik was just a diversion so

that Megatron and the Decepticons can drain the

energy with the magnet that they have built.

Blaster sees a radio antenna and suggests that

they send Krimzik back to Megatron to let him

deal with the energy monster for a while. They

succeed in doing this. Krimzik destroys the energy

magnet, restoring power to the cities of the

world. The Autobots reach the energy magnet where

the big Krimzik is and they agree he must be

dispersed into the air. Even though they don't

want to, they do this. Finally, after the ordeal,

they head back to where Omega Supreme is and

the doctor that had been helping them agrees

to help fix Omega. All of a sudden, Blaster goes

haywire and the original Krimzik pops out of

him. Prime and the others chase after the energy

monster as the episode closes. Now for my thoughts

on this episode. This was another one of those

fun episodes to watch. It was brilliant of Megatron

to create the Krem Zeke to distract the Autobots

of his real plans. The animation on the energy

creatures was superb. I really don't have a lot

to say about this episode. It pretty much speaks

for itself. Hopefully... Everyone who still has

their g1 sets eventually or one of these days

will put in the season 2 disc that has this episode

on it It's just awesome. Even though it's cheesy

Sometimes generation 1 really did have some awesome

awesome episodes and this is just another one

of those Up next is Sea Change. Before I get

into the synopsis, I just have to say There is

a running theme throughout G1, and that is either

humans become Autobots, Decepticons, whatever

like with Autobot Spike, or Transformers become

human. In Sea Change, Sea Spray becomes human

at one point, and I'll get into that once I start

reading the synopsis. We begin this episode...

With Sea Spray and Bumblebee on the water, Sea

Spray is trying to teach Bumblebee how to water

ski. Bumblebee goes over a jump board and then

crashes into the sea. The two Autobots come ashore

and sit down. Sea Spray sees the first star of

the evening and says, why don't they make a wish

on it? On a distant planet, robots are enslaving

humans by order of some computer called Deceptatran.

Well, isn't that obvious? The humans revolt against

the robot slave masters, and Deceptitran says

that this cannot be happening and he must tell

the Decepticons. Back on Earth, Bumblebee tells

Sea Spray that he can't wish on every star, just

as the nautical bot receives an encrypted message.

At Autobot headquarters, Perceptor attempts to

decipher the code, but cannot at that moment.

Optimus Prime tells Cosmos to take a few of the

Autobots to the planet where the distress signal

is coming from and investigate. Cosmos says that

he can take Bumblebee, Sea Spray, and Perceptor,

but Prime's just too darn big. That was that

was actually really funny when he said that I

did laugh when he did that At the planet cosmos

arrives and this and deceptive trans sends out

his droids the Autobots realize that they have

answered a decepticon distress call from the

old war on Cybertron The humans on the planet

help the Autobots, but Cosmos is badly damaged.

Sea Spray meets Alana, and he is very smitten

with her. At that moment Astrotran arrives on

the planet bringing with him Megatron, Soundwave

and Durge. They meet up with Deceptotran and

the robot tells them that he has his droids after

the humans and Autobots. Alana and the other

humans tell the Autobots about the Well of Transformation,

but that it only works on humans and destroys

robots as they just saw two droids get destroyed.

Alana tells Bumblebee and Sea Spray to meet them

at the second step of the waterfall. The water

is safe there. Once they get there, they don't

see Alana or the others anywhere, but Bumblebee

spots Laser Beak and the rest of the Decepticons

attack them. Sea Spray transforms and the others

grab onto him, but they go over the fault waterfall.

Bumblebee gets captured and the Decepticons hook

him up to some machine that will make him tell

the truth. At the underwater city, Sea Spray

decides that they have to go after Bumblebee

before the Decepticons can get any information

out of him about the Well of Transformation.

The humans make an explosive circular charge

on a main column holding the temple together

and Sea Spray and Alana bust into the temple

getting Bumblebee out of there. The merpeople

get Bumblebee underwater but Laserbeak follows

them. Deceptatran tells Megatron that they just

barged in like a bunch of barbarians and the

computer is being very hysterical and Megatron

shuts it down. The evil leader gets information

from Lazerbeak that he has found the hidden city

of the merpeople. Seaspray and Alana are outnumbered

by the droids and they have to retreat into the

cave. Seaspray shows some human traits and he

wants to try and find out if the Well of Transformation

will work on him. Alana tells him not to but

he dives in anyways. He becomes a merperson and

the Decepticons find the city and start blasting

it. C -Spray must change back into his robot

form to fight the Decepticons. Megatron sends

Rumble after them, but C -Spray and Alana trap

Rumble and they both change into robots. C -Spray

and Alana make an attempt at destroying Deceptatran's

temple. Alanna reprograms Decepti -Tran and tells

him to have the droids go after the Decepticons.

Sea Spray runs into the Energon warehouse and

destroys all the Energon before Megatron or the

Decepticons can stop him. The entire floating

city is being destroyed, and the Decepticons

retreat. Alana and Sea Spray motor off into the

night, and Bumblebee sees the first star of the

evening. He asks the others if they want to make

a wish, but Perceptor asks whatever for. To which

Bumblebee replies, I don't know, just an old

earth superstition I heard of. And the episode

ends. Thoughts on this episode the episode was

very different in the fact that it showed the

character depth in sea spray And it also showed

him as a human for a few moments. Well a human

with metal feet This goes back to what? Bumblebees

said in season one about how one how we wondered

it would be like if an Autobot was it was a human

The water animation scenes were excellent and

it is very hard to animate water uh... that's

pretty much all i have to say about this episode

there really wasn't i really don't know this

it's not one that i absolutely hate and it's

not one that i absolutely love it's kinda like

right there in the middle like it's just there

uh... you know as i've said before this is i

think this is the second underwater mur person

episode yeah atlantis arise was the first or

it Yeah, an Atlantis Arise. I don't know. Anyway,

so yeah, that's pretty much all my thoughts on

this one. Well, fooling him was easy. No planet

ever lost its orbit, underestimating the stupidity

of Starscream. Victory is ours! What do you mean,

ours? You broke my scoreboard. We built your

maze. Now you keep your part of the bargain.

What bargain? You promised us a partnership in

leading the Decepticons. Tell you what, guys,

why don't you go build a bridge and jump off

it? Constructicons, transform into Devastator!

Hey, no offense, big guy. At that, the Triple

Changers are my lunch matches. I think we'll

need a program to follow the players. Want to

hear victory music? Hey, partner. Huh? I could

use a little help, buddy. Yeah, sure. Right after

I settle the score with you... Here's to Blitzwing

promised! and to sink my teeth into some Decepticon

hide. Watch, he'll mix their molecules with the

atmosphere. No, the Decepticon car supersedes

personal vengeance. But never forget that I,

Megatron, will always... care of the Decepticon

for us. Up next is Triple Takeover. Woohoo! Finally

an all triple changer episode. Granted the only

triple changers we have right now are Astro Train

and Blitzwing, but they fucking rule. To synopsize

this episode, this episode is pretty cut and

dry, as I just said. It is an Astro Train Blitzwing

centric storyline where they try and overthrow

Megatron. Which normally you would not see that.

Normally it's Starscream trying to become leader.

As you can tell by the title, it is kinda self

-explanatory. Haha. Blitzwing and Astrotrain

trap Starscream and Megatron in a sewer where

they seal off a section trapping the evildoers

in it. And then pump negative 470 degree temperatures

into the shaft, freezing Megatron and Starscream.

Blitzwing then barges into a college football

stadium and takes it over as his base He mistakes

the football coach for a military leader and

holds him hostage. Oh my god I remember watching

this now. Holy crap Astro train takes over well

a train yard as his base The coach tells Blitzwing

to go into a zone defense and the triple -changer

has the Constricticons building a highway maze

around the stadium. The Autobots are en route

to the stadium because that's where Optimus Prime

said blasts were coming from. The Autobots arrive

and the Constricticons want to engage them but

Blitzwing wants them all for himself. After destroying

several of the Autobots, Blitzwing keeps adding

points to the scoreboard. Asterotrain has assembled

a train force to harness and collect energy from

gas and electrical mains. But these unintelligent

machines mess everything up and hit a water main.

Because of the water main bursting, it melts

and thaws out Megatron and Starscream. The leader

yells at Starscream... And the bumbling underling

tries to explain that the triple changers tricked

him. With the water out of control, Optimus Prime

and Ironhide show up to help. However, Prime's

attempts to stop the flooding don't work, and

Spike gets carried off in the current. Prime

finds the water main and Ironhide steals it up

while at the football stadium the Decepticons

are fighting each other and even though Ironhide

wants to get into the battle Prime tells him

not to because the Decepticons aren't shooting

at them Megatron eventually says that the Decepticon

cause is more important than personal feelings

and they retreat after which the Autobots head

for home and the episode ends Now for my thoughts

on this episode I loved this episode. Mainly

because, as I said in the synopsis, it's an Astrotrain

and Blitzwing -centric episode. I've always liked

Astrotrain the most out of all the G1 pre -movie

Decepticons. The animation in this episode was

excellent. There was only one flub that I saw

which is the same flub we always see about the

Seekers being each other's collars. Yeah, I really

don't have that much to say about some of the

episodes today because they... Triple takeover.

I loved it. It was great Just there really isn't

I? Maybe it's me slacking off, but I really haven't

noticed that much stuff when I'm watching these

I really haven't and the animation has gotten

so much better than the first six or seven g1

episodes From season 1 so yeah, I really don't

have anything else to say on this one Send Teletraan

one your exact coordinates. Right away, Trine.

Greetings, Optimus Prime. Forgive the interruption,

but you see, your friends can't wait for your

arrival. Who are you, and what do you want? Tommy's

an M, and hunting's my game. I'm offering you

a sporting chance to rescue your companions.

Torture isn't sport. But I accept your challenge.

Oh, good show, Mr. Prime. Directions will be

forthcoming. I can't wait to begin. Fine. Then

let's begin now. He does have a temper, doesn't

he, Dinsmore? Let's get in there and way -a -bang!

Kicks on tail! No, Warpath. I'm going in there

myself. If he wants a one -to -one battle, he's

gonna get it. Your task is to find them before

something rather unpleasant happens You better

hope I find them before I find you uncharted

interior of Borneo. Bravo! Bravo! Magnificent

creature, isn't he? Oh, absolutely, sir. It's

too bad he fell into the drink. I'm referring

to Optimus Prime. Oh, well, enough of this sport.

I think it's high time we bag... And finally

up today we have Prime Target. To synopsize this

episode, if we begin this episode with a Russian

female pilot being shot down over some ice glaciers.

She and Jackson travels to the spot where her

plane went down, which is gone. The plane is

just fucking gone. It disappeared. Then we are

taken to a large estate, and a man named Lord

Chubly, who is a great hunter who wants the ultimate

catch, Optimus Prime's head. Trax and Bumblebee

are heading into the city to get supplies for

the Autobots. They stop at an electronics store

and see a news report of the shot down secret

Russian jet. Then they spot Blitzwing and Astrotrain,

however. They are holograms and Trax and Bumblebee

are caught in a trap. A trap set by Lord Chumbly.

At Autobot headquarters, the Autobots are standing

around watching a soap opera when the news breaks

in. After hearing the report, Prime doesn't think

that the Decepticons are behind the stolen jet.

Optimus is worried that Bumblebee and Trax haven't

reported in yet. One by one, the Autobots are

picked off by Lord Chumlee. Optimus Prime recalls

the remaining Autobots to headquarters. Cosmos

calls in with information on where the other

Autobots are being held. But Chumlee interrupts

the transmission and challenges Optimus Prime

to a one -on -one fight. When Prime gets to the

battleground, Chumlee releases a few monsters,

but Prime defeats them only to be captured in

an energy net. However, he escapes, and then

Chumlee tries to fool Prime into saving a helpless

woman. Optimus Prime is much smarter than that,

since this has happened. The triple changers

have arrived and Blitzwing goes to kick the trap

that the holographic woman is attached to. While

this releases some sort of green goo. Yes folks,

that's right, I said goo. Astrotrain interferes

with the battle between Optimus and Chumlee.

For this, the Lord captures both Blitzwing and

Astrotrain. In the torture chamber, Bumblebee

attempts to send a signal to Prime so that the

leader can find them. Optimus starts heading

for the castle. Once there, he breaks into the

torture chamber and frees the Autobots. Chumlee

asks the Decepticon captives if they will help

him fight the Autobots if he frees them. Astro

Train says, trust us. And the Lord frees them,

but you should never trust a Decepticon. They

go after Chumlee when the freed Autobots enter

and are going to do battle with them. They escape

and Prime delivers the stolen jet with Chumlee

tied to it bringing peace to the world once again.

Thus ending this episode. Now for my thoughts

on this final episode today. The best part of

this episode I thought was at the end. When Blitzwing

and Astrotrain retreat, Astrotrain does an upside

-down transformation into his shuttle mode. Other

than that, I didn't care too much for this episode

at all. The only other good aspect is the fact

that a human hunter outsmarted Megatron in two

days capturing ten Autobots. That's more than

Megatron has ever done in the past two years

according to Starscream. uh... yeah that's that's

pretty much it uh... i really don't have too

much other thoughts on this episode uh... i thought

it was kind of weird that it that you know uh...

human villain uh... pretty much did more than

than megatron uh... it kind of shows that megatron

for the most part is kind of stupid sometimes

that's all for my thoughts on this episode The

Transformers will return after these messages.
