It might have been an island, but I don't think it was the Dinobot's.

Some one on youtube said that Sarry is a clone of here "mother".
But I like the idea of Sumdac cloning himself and kinda mixing in a bit of Megatron far more awesome.

This eppy was awesome, damn there were moments in it that made me worry that Sumdac might get killed.

Is Starscream dead?

He was put into a forced stasislock (since he didn't turn black).

I believe it was Dinobot island. By being stuck there it will force the Dinobots to interact with autobots and form some type of relationship. Also it will give the Dinobots a place to hangout if they choose, kinda like in G1

Had to record the episode and just finished watching it after i got home from work. Loved it! Thought for sure the Autobots would get some help. Does anyone know for sure if the ark is Omega Supreme? When the ark crashed the one overhead view sure looked exactly like it could be him. The gun turret looks like his head. I missed a couple episodes and have to catch up. Actually we recorded them and the recording got seriously screwed up and missed some parts. Last weeks was one of them! That's who i thought would come to their aid.

Megatron stole him, Its very much like rid.
He most likely stole him to rebuild himself others and the new ones that are not out yet.

Oh yeah. Definitely crossed my mind. When the ark was going down, at first I was hoping Optimus or someone would say 'head for dinobot island'. Then when it went down, and they were talking about the allspark, it seemed like they were going to bring the ark to life, so I figured, "who else could the ark transform into?".

To me it makes a lot of sense for to choose the Ark as Omega's alt mode. That's one case where I think a change of alt mode would be a substantial improvement. But maybe it's a good idea to save that for a later episode.

It would make since for it to be omega i could see him coming from the ark. But it would be a while until then. Possible the middle of season 2.

I'm thinking since Sarri never knew her mother, Sumdac used Megatron tech to test tube his self a baby.

Also agreed on the Omega Supreme in a future epi. So long as I hear Prime refer to the ship as "there last line of defense" before it happens

Good call!

And they need to save Onega Supreme for something really dramatic. For when the autobots are really backed into a corner. A character to unleash at the most climactic moment.

Another reason to hold out on Omega Supreme is because it's one character they could really to make a great toy of. What collector wouldn't want a toy of the ark? And only one class size can be worthy.

The way I see it, Roll Out Optimus will probably come out some time before this Christmas. Ultimate Bumblebee was big last Christmas. I think it'd be unusual if they did more than one Supreme class toy per year.

Ideally Omega Supreme will be something that'll look super-huge next to Activators and Legends class figures.

Hey, just figured I should throw this down here. My satellite's channel guide goes a week in advance, and I checked out next week's episode. It's Elite Guard. I now that it's been kinda rumored about, so I figured I would say something to help clarify it.

I twas a let down after all the build up.

The thing with Blitzwing is that Prowl discovered that when Blitzwing changes personalities, his alt mode changes with him. So his "cold" mode is always the jet, if he is transformed, and likewise his "angry" personality is the tank. If he is in the air and is forced into his angry personality (which Bumblebee was trying to do) then he'd change into a tank involuntarily and crash.

I get it, but I know alot of loonies that apreciate self control, you would think with as long as a TF lives, their mastry of a personal situation would be refined, especialy when it involves personal harm to ones self.

Well, that was nice and anti-climatic.

Burn wrote:Well, that was nice and anti-climatic.

Yeah, all in all though, not too bad for the first episode of Season 2

yeah, but if a character doesn't have absolute control over jumping from one split personality to another, how's he going to maintain that sort of mental discipline when his less cerebral persona takes over? Worked for me.

It's actually the season finale of Saeon 1. Still an awesome episode, just wish the Dinobots had been in it. I can't wait for "The Elite Guard."

I was expecting the Dinobots to show up somehow, but this episode was all kinds of awesome anyway.

I really enjoyed this episode though I did think omega supreme or the dinobots would of shown up.

I really liked the G1 homage of the ark crashed into the mountain.
Still a bit irritated that Sari has the key once again.
Decepticons, Transform and Rise Up was awesome!
Definitely liking earth-mode Megatron.
Blitzwing is so much fun. I wish they would hurry up with his toy!
I'm still not exactly sure what Sari thinks of Blackarachnia. Was she really just leading her in circles to keep her occupied?

In the recap at the start of the episode, when megatron was pulling himself together, this time we see Sumdac fall out of his hand after it attaches to his arm.

One of the weakest eps so far

...and how come the ship now flies? Only a few eps back we we're told it would take months to fix it even with the key...

and that stupid key! Talk about plot device, enough with it already!!!

Yeah, the huge explosion in the middle of an epic fight scene was just boring.

Burn wrote:Well, that was nice and anti-climatic.

Very.

Know what I’ve realized? Aside from just a few things, look where this show has gone, nowhere.

This could have been so much better, but in the end it was pathetic. Megatron seemed like once he got his body he became amazingly idiotic. Also, the Autobots got “damaged” but that wasn’t very apparent in the details. Why did Starscream hesitate at killing Bumblebee? I know it’s a kids show, but instead of doing it so poorly how about just avoiding the scene? The detail in this show I often find very lacking. Where was Lockdown? I would have liked to seen a bit more of him. Another thing, Megatron reformatted, but never scanned the osprey he took the form of, in fact, a osprey never even appeared in the episode excluding Megatron. I still think Ratchet should have at least shown a little pain. Oh and what a wonderful way to end the episode, they gave the key back to Sari, I don’t know, but it just didn’t seem like a good idea after what happened.

Meh, that sums up my thoughts, actually, I’ll narrow it down to one word: Meh.

I kept tell everyone that when megatron came back the writers were going to make sure he didn't wipe out the autobots in one episode and this was there way of make sure that didn't happen. Also I found we will see sari turn into a teenager before the series ends and that when we see what she can real do. The writers won't say what that is but I'm hoping for something really amazing to happen something that none of expects. Because for the most part humans haven't play major role in transformers up untill now either the human have been whiney little bitches or non nonexistent for the most part.

But its not that Megatron wasn’t strong enough, my problem was that he didn’t seem as intelligent as he was before.

Also, I thought the key was supposed fix them completely, how come Bumblebee isn’t sore in the morning after getting his ass fried and then fixed with the key? Wouldn’t he not be in his best shape if it’s the same thing as with Megatron?
