Gotta admit, it felt a little too fast for MECH to already have a fully built Nemesis Prime, but that's probably a case of the writers moving things quickly along like they do (despite the slow burn they've been using for MECH overall). Like you guys said in the podcast, we don't know how much time has passed between episodes too, so maybe it's been a few months. Great show, as always!

Great episode! Perfect thing to come home to hear after a particularly stressful test.

For the record, they first used the soldier model in Convoy.

Combat experience, nothing. The only way the power of Nemesis Prime can be explained is if Silas is the most hardcore competitive gamer on the planet. Which is exactly what I choose to believe. His score has got to be like 5 billion in Car Racing, the only video game this reality has to offer. MECH probably recruits its soldiers through this very videogame, much like The Last Starfighter.

And if Raf becomes the next leader of MECH because he got the second highest score, I will apologize to everybody for spoiling Season 3.

I didn't know Jeff could play the Drums (that is Jazzy Jeff isn't it?) and he's the closest thing to a Celebrity Transformers fan, unless you count light weights like Tom Hanks or the old showbiz friends of Scatman Crothers who maintain a polite interest despite being anything up 90 years odd..

I'm certainly not going to put Michael Bay, Steven Spielburg, and the like on that list as you can never be sure what they say isn't just publicity hype.

If I see a proper celb with rooms full of G1 bots then I'll believe it !

I wonder why Nemesis Prime is so Rusty ?

With an Animated writer helping out recently, who else thinks they may homage or recreate the 'Prowl vs. Starscream inside Omega Supreme's Mind' scene with Silas and Breakdown?

Regarding Bulkhead's fall, because of his size he and the car should have fallen at the same rate. So yes the animators did cheat.

But the principle of one character falling faster than the car is completely valid when you remember air resistance. If one object has more surface area, for example the bottom of a car, compared to another, for example a humanoid in a diving pose, the object with less air resistance falls faster.

So if Bee had jumped off and done the same pose that Bulkhead did, he would have gotten to the ground faster than the car because air resistance wouldn't have slowed him as much as the car. Or to put it another way, an objects terminal velocity is dictated by its air resistance.

But Bulkheads minimum air resistance profile is roughly the same a car's, so yes the animators did cheat. They just didn't cheat how people are thinking they did.

Regarding the human army soldier. His model was the exact same as the one seen in the episode Convoy. He was on board the train and taken out when MECH electrified the train.
