I love the G1-reference to the constructicons, thought they were gonna transform. | while we can except things on the basis that its a show written for kids, there's nothing wrong with questioning things based on logic and rationale. that the the whole point of us adults talking about a kids show on a toy discussion forum. |

I think his opinion on the subject is valid and while I just enjoy it on a level of a children's show I do think about things logically (like KA stated above me) and was thinking the same thing myself. And I came to the same conclusion... the writers probably either thought that it wasn't important or that they didn't think about it when they were writing the show.
And, actually, I think this series has a great flowing story going on in the background and works well as individual episodes too. Quote:

And Sari isn't retarded! WHOO! She's like, the most useful human that's ever been in a Transformers series, ever. |

stuff I liked:
- snow plow = jerk
- where do you find room to store all that? you dont wanna know. hehe.
- prowl setting up tent ninja style LOL
- fricking space barnacles!
- zombiebots!
my take on why the key didn't work with the console: the panel was in a state of disuse? basically what prowl was saying how u cant always rely on machine, which is cool by me.
the sari curing the bots with instant hot water was lame tho. |

While some of you guys says it's too anime-esque for this ep I have to disagree.
It is 21st century American cartoony with the mouths and all.
Mouth movement in this ep is much much better than some episodes. |

so yes...
it will be around for a very LONG time.
i actually really liked this episode, lol not so much for bumblebee or prowl, but for sari.
she seems to be much more mature in these later shows.
and a much more valuable member of the cast. too.
