So it is the "Jackhammer" instead of the "Star Hammer".

Also, ZOMG, you killed Seaspray, you dastard!

They killed Seaspray?

Aaaawwww man, that sucks. Please pause for a dramatic "Nnnnnoooooooooooooooooooo!"

(Also, why would a shape changing robot from a metal planet with no oceans be named Seaspray?)

The Jackhammer...

Sweet!

Given the previous descriptions of this episode, did anyone else think his description of how he survived the proximity bomb was a little... off?
Given the title, who thinks we'll get to see Fowler blow a few gaskets?

It's entirely plausible that Cybertron could have had oceans. The Quintesson world had oceans and cybernetic aquatic life so why not Cybertron?

It does suck that they killed off the chance of bringing Seaspray to the show but I suppose that if the Autobots want some water based support personnel, they can always have Broadside make an appearance.

Seaspray... another dead Autobot, and this time he's a Wrecker! What is the death count for the Autobots now, 3?

Although the Decepticons have had plenty of casualties too...

Cliffjumper, Tailgate, Seaspray... that's it (so far).

Riiiiight, it was coincidence again that something just against all probability falls from allll the Universe to Earth.

Assuming Wheeljack isn't just ignorant of/lying about the reason they wound up back on earth and it is played off as coincidence...

I choose to believe all these cybetronians and cybertronian relics end up on earth because Unicron gives off a sort of resonance that acts like a magnet for free-drifting cybertronian technology and calls to the subconscious of living cybertronians.

But 'Jackie is something we *want* to come back to Earth, as we barely got to know him last time.

No evidence Seaspray was a wrecker.

What is up with Prime and killing off random minibots. Tailgate, Cliffjumper and now Seaspray... this is too much. I mean at this rate Pipes or Outback will be killed off screen in a few episodes soon. That is my guess. If they kill Warpath, I quit.

While I do agree with you, consider this as well. Would their deaths make as large an impact on us if they were just some random unnamed or newly-named character instead of one wit ha well known name? Would we feel for them as much if they were just nameless nobodies or noobs instead of recognizably-named characters?

Nameless nobodies would be the hundreds of late G1 micromasters lol.

QUICK, did Seaspray have any romantic connection to Arcee. I mean that is what kills minibots in this show so far. Fall in love with Arcee and die.

And what of those Micromasters whose names were applied to more well known characters of later series, like Barricade and Blackout?

Being Arcee's assigned teammate =/= being her love interest. Or do you consider Jack... Wait, let's not go there.

There are hundreds of thousands of ero-manga artists in Japan who resent that comment.

besides the whole unicron thing, which no cybertronians knew about(maybee the original primes but maybe not). Earth was obviously important to the ancients of cybertron and to the bots at some point(s) in time for some reason that hasn't been explained yet.
