And then Optimus just folds Megatron in half to get him to transform. And it appears that Optimus Prime fully memorized Megatron’s transformation sequence and was able to get him into gun form without any issues, just like when you’re converting your Transformers figures back and forth.

@@TheRisingStorm316 exactly, but some figures can be really annoying to transform, I can't imagine Optimus struggling with Megatron's hand placement or something else.

​@@TheRisingStorm316 He doesn't need to remember the transformation sequence. Transformers have an organ called the Transformation cog. They only need to spin it to transform. In IDW comic, Optimus did that to the corpse of his dead subordinate when he was cornered by the criminals so he can use his alt mode to escape.

You mean Scour Scump. Right?

Yeah I liked that one too. He just doesn't STOP with that s***. What a dick

Be careful what you wish for Starscream, you just might get it given what they did to you and most of the other Decepticons in this episode......

@@WickedAndWhacked Ow.

Awesome friend

Awesome

He's the "SCAT-MAAAAN!"

He's more like the “Do the Flop Guy” of the series.

I loved one episode when Blaster was broadcasting a rock concert back to Autobot Base. Everyone is freaking out and covering their audio receptors except Jazz. He's dancing and loving it.

He's my 3rd fav Autobot after Optimus Prime and Bumblebee. Plus, I love Ironhide's cool voice.

And you kind of got two of those in this episode with the sound effect on Optimus' cannon

You got two of those in the nightbird episode.

Starscream: Why you rusted, crusted cockroach!

why the mechanical line? Bombshell is also mechanical lol

@@grantoden8242 jst bombshell being bombshell 😏

Based Bombshell

@@andrewchin6211 No, Starscream. We're here to talk business, not trade insults.

Optimus and Megatron had enough mutual respect for each other that they'd do it without any debate. Despite the hatred, the desire for domination, the greed, and everything else, above all, Megatron truly respected Optimus as his rival and enemy - he also knew Optimus would never stab him in the back. He could TRUST Optimus in a way he couldn't trust any of his own Decepticons. Optimus was truly his Best Frenimy. Imagine what kind of amazing things they could have accomplished as a team, instead of adversaries? If this had been Rodimus and Galvatron? Forget it. Galvatron was too insane to bother with respect, especially the post-Motion Picture Frank Welker Insane Galvatron. Galvatron would sooner let everything, everywhere die than team up with the Autobots willingly, of his own volition.

Same

Me three

0:01

That’s why I disappointed when they got rid of the Insecticons and turned them into the Sweeps. It should’ve been Reflector since he/they were no longer used in the cartoon.

I don't like them

Remember Shrapnel, Kickback, Bombshell the 3 insecticons got reintroduced into the sweeps?

@@39Hundred Actually, they made appearances in Season 3 but got lost in the shuffle due to the newer characters. The Insecticons probably put clones in their place and hid because they knew that Starscream would take the chance to get rid of them as they were as cunning and untrustworthy as him plus he was obviously still peeved that they took control of his body.

And it always seems that those platinum pests are more dangerous than they reasonably should be.

And despite being mortal archenemies they make a pretty good team.

@@kirongauff4934 they really do

@@ethanspaziani1070 which is considered ironic.

It's because the adversarial dynamics aren't personal but based on the legacy of the Quintessons, the previous Primes, the former Cybertronian Senate, the Functionists, and the endless energon crisis. Optimus doesn't accept Megatron's methods but he doesn't really want him dead either.

A rarer instance of prime playing with a gun robo.

until Unicron anyway

Yeah it was badass. 1 of my favorite Megatron moments.😎

Probably my fav Megatron episode. Him at his best. Like catching a bullet in mid-air. And then agreeing with Optimus. Okay, Trigger Happy blew it once inside the installation, but I forgive him. He is a Decepticon, after all.

Except a miniaturised Perceptor! :-)

Several episodes back they did infuriate magatrons brain

If he got his titanium hands on those secrets he could rule the puny flesh creatures *forever!*

It was worse in the comics, megatron actually had leadership taken from him multiple times.

@@jeremytung1632 it was taken by shockwave and a few other people

@@OutOfIdeas9977 like starascream too

Evil organizations based on fear and bullying have this problem all the time. The Top Dog has to watch their back every second of the day, lest their nearest rivals decide to off them. It's also why human dictators have Praetorian Guard-type forces specifically to bodyguard them from their own people, whom are often made up of the Regime's most loyal stooges, and instigate purges to eliminate these rivals and threats, on the regular. The leader of North Korea did this for several months after he came to power, and even executed a few relatives, just in case. Evil organizations based on mutual respect and common goal greed, on the other hand, are harder to fight. Soldiers loyal because they're all True Believers In The Cause are much more reliable. Evil leaders that show more respect to their underlings than the average McDonald's manager, give them decent pay and benefits, and treat them as more than expendable pawns in their personal desire for power, tend to have tougher troops, no matter their level of training or competence, and their organizations are that much harder to penetrate with espionage. Basically, pay above minimum wage, give them health and dental, and everyone gets Stock Options and flex days, and you'll have an army willing to march off cliffs. Give them eye care and prescription coverage, they're liable to march straight into hell for you.

And Spike even has a gun, now.

@@calanon534 he uses gun on regular occasion in missions. In s3 he defended and saved Cybertron with a gun

Theyre technically the concept for beast wars. They can convert organic and inorganic matter into energy.

They really can just eat inorganic materials.

They really can just eat inorganic materials.

Maybe their stomachs are able to “digest” materials and turn them into energon like how our own bodies make ATP?

They arrived on Earth before the Autobots and Decepticons and adapted to living since then. Probably their evolutionary trait to keep on living that's why they can eat almost anything and convert it to energy.

It's G1 homie.. the best

G1 Season 2. Pure TF love.

They are the best.

Beast Wars is equally amazing.

Personally I prefer Beast Wars and Prime, but I cannot overstate how much I *love* Generation One.

5:42 & 5:47 For the enjoyment of myself and others.

Still gives me nightmares to this very day. I'd honestly argue that this is a worse episode than Carnage in C-Minor. This starts out so great, but then Shrapnel and the Insecticons get so out of character, there's this one continuity error which I can not forgive (2:04), and... 19:16 Yeah... the Insecticons SCREAM IN PAIN once Optimus shoots them with the cure. Also, Megatron and Optimus don't even have the exact same goals, and yet they STILL team up. At least Carnage in C-Minor is laughably bad. This episode didn't even make me crack up at all!

Man I hated the fact that Buzzsaw was completely overlooked for much of the franchise and he only had a few toys of him, granted they were mostly recolors of Laserbeak.

He's just in it for a chance to destroy the insecticons first chance he gets.

To us, it would be like eating nothing but rice XD

It is! So well written 👏

wait, so does that mean they killed jazz, or did they find a new voice actor for him?

@@prowlsleftfoot he never appeared in G1 after that race, even then he did not speak

Hell yeah! I been watching and in love with Transformers since January 1985 (that's when my state started airing it and when I bought Marvel Comics TF #1 ... which I still have!) By the time I bought Hasbro Masterpiece Optimus Prime in 2004 I knew I was in love for life! (Aka MP-1 Convoy. Still my favorite figure and I have all TFs from Armada to Cybertron, 2007 to DOTM, Animated to Prime, Alternators to Masterpiece, RiD to Cyberverse, AOE to Studio Series, ect.)

@@cdog4478 someone needs to make an extra large Shrapnel!!!!

@@ESO_PRIME yeah I'm sure they will do a few OS KOs of the Insecticons. Good idea though 😅

Well Spike had Bumblebee with him and they had sufficient cover to provide suppressing fire

Good catch.

The intro? Haven’t watched the episode yet

Watch episode "Core" longest second in tv history.

@@perovicvulovic4372 It does kinda feel that way, doesn't it? Only one reason to like that episode, same reason I always liked this: Megs and Prime working together at the end.

@@blastvortex Just watch Core,its literally longest second.

Big negative. Insecticons had no rivals, and dinobot rivals were initially the constructicons

@@SavedByGRACE360 They were portrayed that way in the original toy commercials.

Plus back in the day, insecticons and dinobots were the only group that doesn't combine and they were the only robots whos alternate mode are creatures instead of vehicles..

No, the Constructicons were easily their biggest fight. I love every time they come to blows.

I remember that commercial. 🦗

I know right🤣🤣🤣😄

military's got laser rifles. old english collector's got laser rifles. street thugs got laser rifles. if spike wants one why not

@@tsm688 They also technically share the same universe as G.I. Joe and Cobra. Personal Laser Weapons have been in general use in that universe since at least 1982.

Laserbeak got shot by Inferno

A stethoscope?! 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Yeah right.

Umm that’s not a stethoscope sir

It proves that Soundwave has very great intelligence; he would be a good librarian.

I noticed that whenever they used stock footage the framerate halved. It was pretty easy to notice.

But that's only after he ate the plot-plubotinum and grew two times in size and strength. Regularly he'd get his ass handed to him in a melee with Soundwave.
