    Ok. so G1 is on right now in my area on hub. There was definitely a scene where sideswipe was standing right next to megatron like they were on the same side..

    WTF...

    The episode is called the secret of omega supreme

    Theres a lot of inconsistencies like this (like certain characters sometimes having the opposite faction's symbol). Just learn to accept them.

    It happened from time to time. Makes you appreciate the attention to detail that this rarely happens anymore in cartoons.

    Yeah, simple animation error. My favorite one was where Hot Spot and Defensor were fighting side by side :lol .

    Oh, and the whole 'Rumble and Frenzy color swap' thing.

    In that particular instance, it seems one artist sketched in Soundwave, and the guy who was finishing the art saw the shoulder cannon and mistakenly drew Sideswipe over the roughs.

    Looking for the mistakes is half the fun of watching old G1 episodes.

    I remember one where the animators got confused and had Soundwave knocked out with the Autobots only to have him back with the Decepticons later in the episode.

    My favorite animation error is when the decepticons are cheering that Galvatron will soon be back or something like that and among them is Galvatron.

    Anyone got a screen-grab from Beast Wars when, during Dinobot's funeral, Transmetal Rattrap suddenly was in his pre-Transmetal form?

    One of my favorites is in "The Ultimate Doom" where a background shot of Autobots has Prowl in Skywarp's colors. I've wanted to custom that for a LONG time. It'll be my Classiverse Barricade
