(well we knew better but you get the idea) . I'm sure there is another batch of 7 episodes coming to round out this season.
While it wasn't really "epic", not every TV show's season finale needs to be. That two-parter did, however, pretty much close the book on every major plot point that had been raised since the show's beginning. The series' primary villain Steeljaw was defeated for good, practically every known major criminal character was apprehended at last, the Alchemor itself was taken back to Cybertron, and Bumblebee's mission had been pretty much completely fulfilled, with the only things left unresolved being smaller issues that could have been left unresolved as a means to say "the story is over for us, but life will go on for these characters," which is a very common way for a TV show to end (even the G1 cartoon went out that way). The show could have very well ended right then and there, with that two-parter having so much finality to it that it could have worked as a
series finale rather than just a season finale.

Thus some are arguing it has now been changed to a "TV Event" not a movie, which would disappoint me somewhat. If that is the case, still I know back in 2004, CN used to run TF Energon in huge chunks particularly on Friday late afternoons or Saturday early afternoons (4 episodes here, 6 episodes there etc... which was a clear sign CN did not give a (expletive here) about Energon. I hope this is not the case, and we are treated to a full and complete season 2, AND a telefilm in the vein of Predacons Rising (either between s2 & s3 or after season 3)
The "tv movie" thing comes from something Cartoon Network Australia once said online about season 2 containing 16 episodes and a movie (or 19 episodes total), which tells me that maybe the last three of these 6 episodes will be of a serialized format to let them being aired together on the American Cartoon Network as a single feature presentation.

The most recent one (the fourth one) ended on a cliffhanger, so it could be Part 1 of a three-parter that could be aired as a movie.

Platinum Edition Grimlock and Bumblebee 2-pack
That was done to give adult collectors a chance to buy the Takara retooled Battle Grimlock mold. It's not like it's even colored show-accurately or anything (Takara's original version is, though). Kids certainly aren't the market for that set.
