This! Bulkhead really has no other choices but to die or be rendered comatose/out of commission for a while to let this episode have impact.

There's one hole in the idea of using the Phase shifter abroad the Nemesis. since it lets its pass through solid objects, the person wielding it would fall right through the floor of the the Nemesis and out of the ship. Plus, there's also the notion that the Autobots can barely ever find the Nemesis since it's always on the move and untraceable (save for a few rare special occasions).Snowy wrote:but I REALLY like the idea of using the Phase Shifter to steal back the other relics.

Well I can see where you're coming from and it might be stretching it, but maybe it doesn't go through whatever you're standing on? Possibly only through objects and walls. Maybe not even walls. We never saw what the phase shifter could do besides make a train go through Bee and Arcee's hand.
And it might have to be in another special occasion, such as when the Nemesis was downed. Of course, that was caused by Bulk who will be out of commission this time around, but who knows? Maybe Knock Out will mutiny and paralyze the ship or something.
I don't know. I'm tired. Leave me alone :'(

If he jumps, Activates it, goes through the wall, and deactivates it, that gets rid of the hole in the idea.

Or maybe he can just run really, really fast.

you would still fall through the floor...

I see a few things wrong with this. First of all, like Sabreblade said, the Nemesis is usually on the move and cloaked, so finding it is problematic. Second, even if the 'bots found her, where would they look for the Forge? The Nemesis is a big ship, and there's got to be more than one storage bay on it. Third, while I'm sure the Forge could heal Bulkhead's injures from his fight with Hardshell, there was nothing in "Operation Bumblebee" that hinted it was a cure all. And Bulkhead was suffering from Tox-En poisoning as well as his injuries, which will no doubt cause complications in his recovery.G1 Smoketreader wrote:2) That there is at least one stasis field/pod in Autobot HQ which is confirmed to be operational by the story so far.

This one may be a more viable option. And there were plenty of statis "cacoons" lying around the old hive. There's no reason to think the Autobots didn't recover more than the one Airachnid was trapped in.
G1 Smoketreader wrote:Re: The cureall- I was thinking along the lines of Optimus using the Hammer to reforge Bulkheads' corpse into some type of new Autobot on the grounds that they need the numbers and desperate times call for desperate measures etc. In other 'peacetime' situations it is my assumption that reforging Bulkheads' corpse could be considered something macabre- the equivalent of an act of atrocity.

He might've forgotten that David Kaye was introduced last episode. But there's still Nolan North
