As for some of the important tidbits
1- Starscream escapes and goes to the Nemesis, and Prowl goes hunting him alone, using a ship inside the Ark, he also takes Ratchet's EMP generator with him.
2- After finding Starscream and uses the shackles on him, Lockdown appears, and the two have a battle, but they soon notice the shackles broken on the floor, with Starscream gone.
3- They go looking for him, but when they find him, he has just destroyed Prowl's ship and headed for earth, Lockdown leaves using his ship and Prowl tags along.
4- After a little talk, the two team up and Lockdown gives Prowl his new Armor.
5- Upon reaching Earth, they find Starscream and capture him, but Lockdown betrays Prowl, ties him up, and takes Starscream to Megatron. The rest of the bots arrive after a while and free Prowl, and pursue Lockdown.
6- However, another Starscream arrives, this one with a new color scheme arrives, and after a battle with Prowl is captured. They go to Lockdown ship to investigate the two Starscreams.
7- Upon arriving to his ship, they see Megatron and rest of the decepticons, but when they bring the two Starscream together, they open thier spark chambers to show two activated bombs.
8- The decepticons leave, but in order to protect the city, Prowl attaches his armor to the two of them and send them to space, where they explode.
9- we then see Starscream( the real one) playing with the shackles while viewing a recording of Megatronin front of a monitor, and then looks back to show an army of clones. Optimus747:  Sounds like a heck of an episode...and so much for the "no clone army" statement from Botcon!
Does Lockdown get a new deco in this ep., like the one mentioned from Botcon? mordecai6: holy crap so does this maybe explain the skywarp/thundercraker issue then? Pauly T: The sidecar/samurai armor gimmick is a really nice gag. It looks cool, but I'm glad that's not Prowl's standard design.
It's a bit... much. lars573: A fist full of energon=A bucket full of win. Robogeek28: Wow! RedWolf: Starscream in classic colors?! What does the rest of his Seeker army look like?
His original colors or new? Lupis Convoy: I am loving that armor... I want now!!!! magmatron: Quote:

His original colors or new? | His original color. Smkscrn GT: This episode looks and sounds awesome. Love Prowl's armor. Can't wait to see it! fosterlager: I'm skipping Prowl's first release and waiting for the armor/sidecar, for sure. knook: wow, loving the new Prowl O_O
I take it that Skywarp and Thundercracker are generals in the Army  Takara_destron: Sounds fantastic!
Oh now to decide whether to skip the first Prowl and wait for the one with the armour, but that could be a long wait!  KA: man Dubai gets all the cool early episodes. Optimus747: Quote:

I'm pretty sure I read that in one of the Botcon reports. FREEFALL: Neat. Does Samurai Prowl have a sword? Peaugh: Nice. Definitely nabbing that armor. magmatron: Quote:

I'm pretty sure I read that in one of the Botcon reports. | Prowl will come packed with the sidecar instead of the traffic light. The sidecar won't be packed seperately. Deluxe price. G1Wheeljack: YES!!! Lockdowns back and Prowls got his Samurai Armor, which looks pretty cool, can't wait for the toy. This episode is gonna be good, I wonder if Lockdown steals the EMP form Prowl? magmatron: Quote:

I wonder if Prowl will have it in future episodes or possibly never get rid of it? I also like that pic of Screamer in his more G1-ish colors, is that an effect of the camera or does he get a color change? | Its a different color, but its actually a reddish brown, not red.

Can't wait to see this one... General Magnus: They got me at "Lockdown´s return".
I´m kid of hoping he turns to be a Bobba Fett type of guy. Not entirely good, but not entirely evil. shroobmaster: Quote:

Multiple people who were at botcon saying different things.
Maybe I'll just wait till comic-con to buy a prowl. fosterlager: Quote:

Think Final Battle Jazz and his new gun. Master Fwiffo: So, this means TK and 'Warp are toon characters now, right? UltraDevmodious: I won’t mind having my first release prowl then one with the armor. Paladin: So does the armor only last for 1 episode or will it return??? magmatron: Quote:
Originally Posted by Paladin So does the armor only last for 1 episode or will it return??? | Just this episode. It suffers the same fate as BB's boosters. Silent_Magnus: Maybe I'll buy the initial release Prowl.
Then when the new one comes out I'll buy it keep the armor and give the prowl to my friend who likes transformers but isn't that much of a fan.
Unless there's some redecoing/remolding Sso02V: Quote:

Originally Posted by Sso02V So...if Lockdown had the armor, then it's safe to assume that he probably peeled it off some unfortunate Autobot he was hunting, and that Prowl is totally cool with that. | Or he could have gotten it from a Decepticon. knook: my understanding was that it would be sold seperatly but I can't see that selling well so its probably Prowl with Sidecar instead of Traffic Light :up: Windcharger: Regarding Prowl's Pic
HOLY MOTHER#$@# SH$%T!!! Samurai!!! Sso02V: Quote:
Originally Posted by fosterlager Or he could have gotten it from a Decepticon. | but still, odds are the conditions of him getting it were far from pleasant. Laser_Optimus: Excellent. That sounds awesome. And that also explains the clone army stuff from Botcon. Also, I'm really digging the way Prowl looks with his Samurai Armor. Myself, I'll buy both Prowl's.
Also, I'm gonna guess that SW & TC show up later on as clones of Starscream. Perhaps they're different from his other clones, because he powers them with fragments of the Allspark that he finds? Gir: Looks great!
I don't suppose Thrust / Dirge / Ramjet are going to be in Starscream's clone army becuase they're not exact seeker clones...
Would be cool though. cappeca: Quote:

Although Samurai Prowl is much more impressing. Nunchuck Jazz and Samurai Prowl define a new era of Transformers coolness. Caine: Now all we need is to connect/combine magmatron with FanTransformers and DarkPrime, then the universe shall rejoice! Railguard: Huh? Samurai Prowl? Three wheeled ride? What the hell?!! Did I miss something?  MegaHavok: Quote:

I would gladly buy another Prowl for the sidecar. Lockdown coming back is WIN. Starscream's clones are cool, hope greater explanation was/is/will be given.
Besides, I'll need the extra Prowl to wear the armour.
