The Energon Pub

I missed the first five minutes, but from what I saw of it, I liked it! My only problems were A: Sari was annoying as usual B: I hated Blitzwing’s voice C: the end of the episode was very dumb.

Otherwise, if every episode was like this one, I’d like it. This episode actually woke me up and got me excited instead of putting me back to sleep like the last one. I’d have to say though, that cannon should have incinerated Blitzwing and Lugnut instead disassembling them, that part was just dumb, but this was overall pretty good which is uncommon for an animated episode.

Your thoughts?

The wait was worth it, for starters. It had a surprising burst of intense action. Lugnut and Blitzwing are my all-time favorite characters now, and they are absolutely hilarious together. I love the part when Blitzwing headbutts Lugnut, but then just he butts him back like a truck hitting a little person. That made me laugh.


"And they say I'M crazy..."

-Blitzwing


But doesn't Blitzwing's "Icy" personality sound strangely like Stewie from Family Guy?

Nice to see that they finally had some weaponry for their ship, which was colored similarly to a very large favorite...Omega Supreme. Head cannon and all. Will he transform? Be sentient?


I really liked Lugnuts power. I mean the fact that he was just downright powerful. And I thought he was going to be a 'dumb' guy, but he is fairly intelligent, just a little too worshipful...

Sarri was extremely annoying in this, but probably because she was so kid like, and would not do what was actually right. Nice to see that they key can actually control what it does. You'd think it might have stopped itself from working quite so much.

Blitzwing was okay. I mean there are parts of him I liked, but it was a little too much at times. However, it was cool how he came about getting his alt modes...

All in all, an okay ep! Certainly not gagging on it like I often did when Armada, and Energon began.

What a great episode. Lugnut and Blitzwing were awesome, and I love Blitzwing's voice. The ice face is most certainly my favourite, as it seems to be the smartest one of the bunch.

I was quite surprised that Lugnut seems a lot smarter than he looks, but noticing that he is the same size as Bulkhead makes me wonder if we will see a Leader Class Lugnut toy, if not I may have to hold off on Leader Bulkhead to keep the two of them in scale.

Lugnut reminds me of cartoon Shockwave to a degree, one eye and totally loyal to Megatron.

I'm still opposed to Sari, I can't stand the girl. The bots were outclassed by Lugnut and Blitzwing but seemed a little more likable than usual.

I can't wait to see how Starscream's return will make things play out between Megatron and Lugnut.

I loved it!
I think there might be something true to the rumor about the ship being Omega Supreme, somehow I think the key will reactivate him.

I think the art style kinda fits longnutz the most, it lets him look like something from G1.

Anybody notice Spike jumping out of the demolition Krain?

What was that with Megatron suddenly showing up via the Alspark.

I'm going to take a guess that it was the Allspark trying to warn Sari that Megatron is close to being revived, and that he has to be stopped. Of course she doesn't understand.

Ok so this is kinda become my rant and review of each show every week so......
ok Cool! Finally Some Decepticon Action! I really feel like all the other shows are fillers. I dont give a crap about Nanosec, Meltdown, F*ckdown...whatever! Give me some REAL DECEPTICONS DAMMIT!
So Blitwzwing and Lugnut were the sh*t! Finally we got to see them transform and how they got the earth modes. I like Blitzwing when he was choosing his and he couldnt decide. That was funny and brilliant too in explaining his modes how he came to be. And what does Lugnut turn into? An aircraft carrier of some sort? What happened to Sari when her key activated the ship and she saw Megatron? I thought for quick second Megs finally got his body back but That wasnt him so ...was it ? what was that that happened back there? And just when I was about to ask WHAT HAPPENED TO STARSCREAM? HE Damn Hell Shows up at the last second. Love it! Its getting Juicy now.!
I Still could do without Sari's commentary. I wish she would get cut from the show or something. Bring in a Sam and Makela or Spike from G1 or Hell even Daniel all grown up or something.Anybody besides Sari. I feel like its a good Transformers show Im watching that rivals some previous generations right up untill Sari SPEAKS and then I feel like Im watching Teletubbies.

Wow - what a cliffhanger!

This episode was very cool. I can't wait 'til the 'Cons become a proper team.

Initially I thought it was going to transform into Omega. Would be very interesting if it did eventually.

This episode was total win! Lugnut was quite respectable, I love the way he's loyal to Megatron. And it's about time Bulkhead gets beaten in a second. I really thought we were going to get an Omega Supreme hint, especially when Ratchet, referring to the Ark, called it an "old friend". The Megatron hologram was unexpected, but I think Sari figured out what it was before I did.

It was great how Blitzwing got his alts, I always wanted to know if they would explain that, and if the show somehow needed more action, this is the episode!

The twist with Starscream was terrific IMO, and I'm looking foward with all my bodily fluids drooling out!

Just watched this...and, for once, I was not all that impressed....not as much as I thought I'd be with this one. Blitzwing has always been one of my favorites, and up to this point I was really not liking with whole three-face-deal...but it is slowly but surely growing on me as he makes more and more appearances....I am still not a huge fan of Face Number Three, as he just seems, well, STUPID to me....Lugnut is so "meh" as a character I can't be sure whether I like him or don't...He's the brawn thus far in the Decepticon camp, so it seems....He does indeed love Megatron, so I can totally relate!

What in the hell was the deal with the Allspark whipping out a hologram of Megatron??? I guessed it was something along the lines of scaring some sense into Sari, but I was not entirely sure! Speaking of Sari, she annoys me more and more every week I have to deal with her appearances. Granted, I understand why she's in it in the first place, but DAMN! SOMEONE TAKE THAT BLOODY KEY AWAY FROM THE CHILD!!!!! I cannot deal with it much longer!

The Autobots were...well....there....not much to say about them really. It was nice to see that they actually WERE in the possession of firearms on their ship, but they had been disabled..no doubt due to energon shortages on Cybertron...I was starting to wonder if they were gonna get GUNS or not.....there is just getting too many Decepticons on Earth to continue to deal with them with grappling cables and electromagnetic pulses (or whatever)...after all, an axe is not gonna do diddley against Blitzwing's fire-and-ice cannons!

And Starscream has returned! Kinda a goofy re-entrance, but it was good to see him all the same. Cliffhanger to see what decision Blitzwing and Lugnut make towards Screamer's little offer.

Overall, the episode had more Cons in it, which is always a plus for me....but it was just rather flat and so-so.....Story does appear to be getting heated up more each week, which I enjoy....Just need one thing to make it right, though..................





........GIVE MEGATRON A FRIKKIN BODY!!!!!



wow! I got MAD wordy on this one!

First impression.

*yawn*

Yeah, not impressed. Let's start with, hey look! Sari's STILL abusing the key despite being told not to numerous times.

Then there's all the "nods". Quite frankly i'm getting sick and tired of them. There's getting to be so many this is bordering on NOT being a new series.

A Spike type character leaping out of the crane - big whoop.

Something that could be identified on camera before it was crushed - done last year in the movie!

As was the whole crashing into the ground after re-entry thing.

Blitzwing is pathetic. Sorry, but he's just pathetic.

And Lugnut is clearly the Decepticon equivelant of Bulkhead, big, strong, and has trouble thinking for himself. Just what the series really needed.

At least in previous eps I only had the animation to get disappointed about. But I couldn't even do that with this episode because it was overshadowed by much more.

I had a lot of distractions but I generally enjoyed what I saw. I think the only thing keeping the Bots from taking that key from Sari is some misplaced belief that they would be stealing it. Give me a break on that one.

Blitzwing was fun. Silly, but fun. I'd like to know what kept Sari from telling Ratchet about the Megatron hologram. Maybe I missed something there. But at least Starscream is back, and now we'll have some Decepticon conflict. Yay.

I loved it! I don't care what people say about blitzwing or his voice i thought he was cool as hell! Especially how he got his alt. modes! The ark omega supreme! Loved starscream at the end!

This is hands down my favorite episode of Animated to date! Blitzwing is pure win!
Blitzwing:Random:Can someone give me a hand? Or a leg? or a Pelvis?[/quote]
I rofl'd when I heard that, and it was nice to see how hw got his alt. modes. I can't wait to see what happens with Starscream. I'm hoping he'll see Megatron in his Earth mode and say "Megatron, is that you?" you all know what Megs will say then.

I thought the episode would of gotten better reviews from the posters on this site. I enjoyed the episode very much and i'm glad to see the Decepticons finally involved more with the show. The soundwave episode really turned me off abit because that little girl just was annoying the hell out of me but this one just ROCKED!! however...... why does she still have the key?


Blitzwing is the best TF on that show

So if the decepticons could work together... they would destroy the Autobots..

Blitzwing, Lugnut, Black blackarachnia, Starscream, Megatron, Soundwave.... Would you consider the bounty hunter on their side?

Autobots have Prowl, Optimus, Bumblebee, Ratchet, and Bulk head.


edit: Crap... forgot the dinobots..... Can't the Decepticons outnumber the Autobots for once!

ChrisR291 wrote:edit: Crap... forgot the dinobots..... Can't the Decepticons outnumber the Autobots for once!

Why would they need to? The Autobots can barely cope with two Decepticons at once. Should they all manage to work together, the Autobots are toast.

How long till they introduce the Cybertron Elite Guard? Because the Autobots need reinforcements or upgrades pronto.

I loved this episode by the way, and Lugnut came out of nowhere to impress me. I didn't think I'd like him but, man I pretty much like all the characters on this show. Even Blitzwing didn't suck as much as I thought he would.

The Elite Guard appear in episode 17, called, what else, "The Elite Guard". Led by Sentinel Prime, they take over for the Autobots, but prove they are less adept at blending than the 'Bots.

Great friggin' episode. I love Blitzwing and Lugnuts characters. I think I may even like Lugnut more. Plus the cannon at the end was yet again, another great throw back. This show just keeps on producing hits.

I loved this episode! It's true, ever episode is better then the last. I liked the teamwork and strategy the Autobots showed. I liked the "Odd Couple" relationship Blitzwing and Lugnut have. And I actually liked their pre-Earth forms better. The part where Lugnut talks to the crane was pretty funny. And I agree, the way Blitzwing got his 2 forms was cool. I was worried that Lugnut was gonna be all brawn and no brains or character. But they're both great characters. Even Prime gets a moment where he doesn't seem to be such a dumbass. I think I love Blitzwing the most. He know just what to say everytime. Though Lugnut had a good line just before he got blown up Waspinator-style. "Slag"

I liked the thing with Sari and Ratchet on the Ark. Both seem to show some growth. Maybe Sari will mature a little and Ratchet will lighten up a little. I'm getting sick of grumpy, old Ratchet.

And I loved Starscreams appearance! He certainly knows when to show up. I can't wait to see what happens in the next episode.

IMO, the only thing I hated about this episode was the animation. As the shows get better, the animation quality continues to degrade. Ironic considering the series' name.

But the thing is, the cliffhangers never carry over into the next episode, they're always answered later.

Go Blitzwing go Blitzwing Go Blitzwing Yah!

Loving Blitzwing, that goofy German accent he's got is just hilarious.
Reminds me of the German Screenwriter (Will Ferrell) from the Producers movie. "Jah"

And the Triple Personality disorder he's got going there is also very cool.

Loved how he got his alt modes. "Tank, Jet, Tank Jet, TANK!!! JET!!! Hey why not both?"

Lugnutz really felt like he was channeling Shockwave. His undying to Devotion to Megatron is a little creepy at times. But he's pretty cool.

Good to see the Autobots get some serious firepower.

But Blitzwng takes the cake. Just for him its the best episode ever.

Can't wait to see an actual figure/prototype/test shot of him.

Sari seems to be growing, BB had very few lines, but at least he was less annoying than usual.

Overall a great episode.

Overall the episode was great the one problem, I had is that blitzwing was to much like he-man's man-e-faces. I loved Lugnutz can't wait to see more of him in future episodes. As far as the autobot ship goes in an interview I read with one of the writes he said the ship will transform at some point during the series, as to weather or not it will be omega supreme or some other form only time will tell.

I love Soundwave, but this episode was much better than Sound and Fury.
In fact, it was the best I've seen so far.

I totally DIG that the Decepticons are such badasses!!!!
Both Blitz and Lugnutz are awesome.

Lug's really gave me a vibe of Shockwave.
Very loyal, very rigid and serious.

Also, the scenes where missiles were headed towards the Autobots reminded me of the scene from Transformers the Movie when the 2 'bot shuttles are being hunted down.
The trails behind the missiles looked kinda similar.

As someone else said, if all the Decepticons were united and went into battle, the Autobots would be thrashed.

Overall the cartoon is really good, and I can't wait for more episodes!!

Imo, this ep was better then last week's ep.

The good:
- More Decepticons, yay!
- The Cons are a real threat.
- Megatron is smart enough to influence the deeply loyal Lugnut.
- Blitzwing turned out a lot stronger then I thought he'd be.
- Bulkhead got beaten really quickly (finally).
- It's good to see Starscream return.

The Bad:
- Too much whiney Sarri and the key.
- The Autobots still don't have any good weapons yet. I'm sure that they have access to blueprints for atleast some ranged beam weaponary. I find it stupid that they haven't geared up yet.
- I don't like Blitzwing's three heads. They should have just used the intelligent head.
