Yes, Predacons, as in Predaking. Not as in "... vs. Maximals".

Actually, as in Beast Wars Preds (Waspinator and Blackarachnia I would assume but we'll see). Why else would Forward and DiTillio be writing?
Really excited for this one.

Ok, so I just watched this episode, and I don't get the ending...
You know...Waspinator is pulling himself back together, and Black Arachnia is lying on the ground...she looks up and there is a Cheetah, a large Rat, a Rhinocerous, and a Gorilla standing there looking down on her...she says "Oh you've got to be kidding me!"
What gives? Is this simply just a nod to the Beast Wars for the fans?
The part of the episode where Jetfire/Jetstorm and Sentinal Prime "distract" the Dinobots so SP can sneak into Black Arachnias lab is HILARIOUS!

Amazing episode and it even sort of had guest appearances by all four of the Maximals from the first season of beast wars.

Yup, ya got me, I didn't notice that I typed that twice...funny how the brain works that early in the morning...
I fixed my post so that less informed people don't get so confused.
They've given nods to Beast Wars before, but I don't recall a Character ever verbally commenting on something like that.

Don't think of it as her the character saying it, think of more as the makers speaking through the character to the audience.
Kinda like how, in Beast Wars, Optimus Primal called die-cast construction "a lost art."

So... does that mean that BA & Wasp have now fallen through time and are now stuck in the past?
Transwarp devices have, after all, been known to do that from time to time...

The way I see it, if they show up again later in the series, they're in the present.

Not in this series. It's only been shown for space travel, not time travel.Black Bumblebee wrote:So... does that mean that BA & Wasp have now fallen through time and are now stuck in the past?

I loved the BW nods, especially the best line ever: "Waspinator has plans..." Gotta love it.
