g1 episode 1 question

Postby ajac » Thu Feb 19, 2009 2:48 am

So I decided to rewatch g1 series all over again just out of boredom and just starting on episode 1 I just noticed something... the autobots all flew? lol I barely remember that guess thats the only time they all actually flew without jetpacks right? Man rewatching old cartoons u always seem to catch stuff u didnt catch when u were young.

yeah they flew. but the people in charge realized that the cons needed a way to escape without the bots following. so it was never seen again

I seem to recall the Autobots flew on-and-off at random throughout the series. They even surfed.

Man, being the continuity person on that show, if indeed there even was one, must have been a nightmare. Or maybe continuity was partying every night and came into the office drunk all the time.

Most the Autobots flying were in Eps1-3, but you're partially right... you later see others like Gears in S.O.S. Dinobots and I think Brawl (EDIT-- I meant to saw Brawn) or maybe Wheeljack in Plague of Insecticons fly for very brief periods of time.

Season 2 did a much better job of only allowing Skyfire, Powerglide, Dinobots (don't know why), Cosmos, Tracks, Aerialbots, and Omega Supreme fly.

Then comes Season 3 where sometimes the autobots fly in space -- I guess the gravatational pull being low helps? :D

Hahah yeah well the dinobots SHOULD be able to fly...Except for Swoop of course because that wouldn't make any sense... :lol:
