Is it just me that thinks the Omega Lock appears to be riffing on the Key to Vector Sigma with the whole 'changing Earth to its new Technological Matrix and destroying indigenous life' thing?

Yet, Megatron asked for reinforcements after those events, and we saw some Vehicons hanging around Starscream right after he does.

Key to Vector Sigma, anyone?

I'm not bashing her just for the hell of it. I hate it when any character does this. I understand why it's done, from a writer's viewpoint, but it always makes me feel like the character is asking a stupid question (scared or not).

Her question was perfectly valid as it provided the necessary exposition to the audience. Any one of the kids could have asked it any would have gotten the same effect.

If I were in one of those canisters, I would have asked the same question. Though I might have rephrased it a bit (like, "If the Omega Lock is used on Earth, what's gonna happen to it?" or something), but I'd darn well want to know what that madman was going to do to my homeworld. Especially if he went to such trouble to hunt me down, capture me, bring me to another world, and threaten to kill me as part of a ransom. I would be scared and fearful for myself and for my home.

It also bears a striking resemblance to Project: Genesis from the Star Trek movies, only a Cybertronian equivalent that uses mechanical life instead of organic life. ;)

It certainly seems to have the same effects as the G1 Key to Vector Sigma. ;)

"...in favour of its new matrix" a quote directly from Star Trek II. Definitely an homage to the the effecs of the genesis device. Perhaps we'll see some rebirth as we did with Spock as result. Maybe not.

Gee...the Autobots are cornered. Didn't see that one coming. >:oP


Nonetheless, the last time I was excited about a season finale at all was Season 3 of Animated. :KREMZEEK:

The last time I was excited about a season finale was the last season finale we got for a TF cartoon. ;)

The Autobots are vastly outnumbered and the cons have the kids. What did you think was going to happen?

One of the key word was "Gee." If in the last video the Autobots and humans were captured, how do you conclude I would ignore that and find any surprise in this promo snap, which just mirrors the aforementioned clip?

The expression on the sipping coffee emoticon said a lot as well.

And my "wall of text" was split into two "walls," the second one suggesting I was speaking in spite of the first with "nonetheless."

That the Cybertronians had that device makes me wonder how many planets they have cyber formed.

Well, if the Hub is anything like it's G2 counterpart here in the Aligned continuity family, that system would be cyberformed. Then again, I'm not sure if you would consider it a planet.

I would assume that Velocitron and Gigantion are cyberformed, but like the Hub, we haven't seen these planets in the Aligned continuity family yet. Only read about them. :-B

Ever wonder what Megatron's favorite song might be? The answer may surprise (or horrify) you. Check out the embedded video below courtesy of the Hub's facebook page.
