We won't know until next season, but there's probably a 99% chance he's alive.

Unless they decide to do the whole "We'll kill him now and bring him back to life later with a Beast Hunters upgrade cuz he's Optimus Prime and we've always done that". Sure, that never get old........

Except if they kill him, he'd have to stay dead. It's the show's abiding rule.

I would like to see him get a beast hunters upgrade though....at least in plastic.

Also, Starscream and his armada are copying the negative polarity universe by wearing RED insignias.....and his armada go even further with red visors and laser fire, as opposed to the usual purple.

Huh? I hit the quote button? Could've sworn I hit the edit button.

What? They've always had red visors.

You see? I'm only 20 and already I'm going senile.

I forgot. I'm sorry, but on the normal vehicons you just don't care. W/ all that silver on the new ones you can't help but go "oh look, red" -facepalm- ugh......

But seriously, why the red insignias?

So I'm gonna finish arguing by saying to anyone on here who's a brony, I don't care, I could care less, but please, keep it to yourself and, if at all possible, off of the Transformers fansites. And my main problem is w/ the show, and when those abominations cross over into awesome things like Transformers and Doctor Who, most of us can't help but be extremely irritated.

There....I'm done.

Congratulations, you're now on "The List"

I'm not. Those guys get angry. Administration folk like me, we just get cranky ... and a little bit sarcastic.

Just like that whole "cyber-forming" thing has never been done before!

Yeah ... that was the real low point for this episode. Let's just drag up a story that was done 20 odd years ago and do it again. Why come up with something new?

gah ...

Should go bug GP about doing a Jet Vehicon/Cybermen thing.

P.S. Put some clothes on.

Damn it. The wait for season 3 is going to kill me.

Seriously though, I've loved the last few episodes. For awhile there it seemed as if the show was dragging its feet but the pace picked up quite nicely at the end. Now we just need some more characters to be introduced.

by **Zottoman** » Sat Nov 03, 2012 4:44 am

That was an awesome episode. Especially the twist about what Optimus does on Cybertron and Ratchet's subsequent reaction. I didn't see it coming! Season 3 can't come soon enough.

Actually, when does Season 3 begin?

by **budmaloney** » Sat Nov 03, 2012 7:04 am

Optimus is rabid and has to be put down. The scene with Ratchet should have been prolonged. I would be happy if Optimus is put on trial for ruining Cybertron`s fate. He is crazed I tell ya.
Great ending to a great season. I just hope Decepticons always reign supreme.

by **Hotrodimust** » Sat Nov 03, 2012 7:08 am

The episode was good but I thought they would at least show how the whole beast thing was gonna start. And I loved when prime cut off Meg's arm well it really wasn't his arm just the one he was using. I also like how starscream is acting since he's back to being number 2. But I just think the episode ended so blah I really thought it would have ended with something making me think holly sh#t lol.

I want to say February/March, but really......

I don't know.

So impression... 8/10. recoloured aircons?

how, with only one arm could Megatron transform?

am I missing the Homage, or is New Kaon an homage to cartoon episode 'City of Steel' or the marvel comics first episodes with the fortress.

yes I understand that the key to vector sigma was referenced.

going to be a pain waiting for a new season.....long lonely winter........

Of course thoughts and donations are with the victims of Frankenstorm sandy.

Was I the only one wondering what the heck the human military was doing while the decepticons invaded Nevada? The only guy they ever seem to have to battle these things is fowler. I know Optimus said that the human military wouldn't be able to match the decepticons, but it seems to me that fowler, with one helicopter mind you, was able to hold is own against the entire decepticon air fleet for a solid while.

The name comes from Animated, in which it was the Decepticons' home base colony planet after they were kicked off of Cybertron when they lost the Great War.

Here, however, the name is applied to the fortress. As to the fortress itself, it's just a fortress set on Earth. Nothing too special.

Hi guys, I haven't posted in ages, just swinging by to say that this finale kicked ass.

I wonder what the status quo is going to be in season 2 though.

According to series writer Steven Melching, there will be no status quo in season 3.

So does that mean that the ever-infamous "when we kill a character, it stays dead" mantra is out the window? Or am I just stupid?

You never know. They might pull an original movie and have Hot Rod Shot take over as boss monkey.

They wouldn't do that because of the awesome that is Peter Cullen.

My own WAG? The last shot, when it looks like he's destroying the Ground/Space Bridge with the Star Saber? He's actually cutting off his arm, then jumping through.

Me!!!

Not even waiting for HasTak; got a mook jet and some Bare-Metal chrome on order.

Also, did anyone else think of The Black Knight from Monty Python when Prime took Meg's arm? :lol:

Yeah, and Megatron survived ground zero of a space bridge explosion. Optimus is likely just mortally wounded but not quite dead yet.

How can he jump through when the ground/space bridge closed after Ratchet went through?

Well he was standing right next to the controls ... It wouldn't have been hard to turn it back on, then bolt through.
