    Very cool.

    Smokescreen's line after failing the Wart-test was great.


    -ZacWilliam, nice to hear Solus mentioned again. I REALLY want more details on her and the other 13.

    Smokescreen is really becoming one of the reasons I watch the new episodes. And to have them speak of all the different relics of the original 13, that's icing on the cake.

    Though from commercial teasers, I think we all know where the Star Saber will be going.

    Smokescreen: "The Dark Lord himself?!"

    ....

    "He won't know what hit him!"

    Oh, Smokescreen, you are a funny chap :lol 

    And the Insecticon, damn. Poor Jack looked as thought his bowels did terrible things :lol

    Sees that the Miner Vehicons are shorter than the other Vehicons.

    My god, they're Cybertronian Dwarves!

    Smokescreen you are such a badass. Also I can't wait to see Optimus wield the Star Saber.

    I appreciate how the Vehicons Smokescreen supposedly wrecked just got back up and wrecked him back.

    Seriously. It's good to NOT see new characters be more powerful.

    Really, because I was like: "We get it, you were raised in the pits of Kaon." :lol 

    Epic fail in the end for Smokescreen. Anyone wanna guess that the sword will only budge if Optimus pulls it out? Because that's what I'm guessing. :D

    Oh look, they name-dropped the Star Saber. Because any big sword is the Star Saber, right? And it was forged by Solus Prime. Why do I have a feeling a lot of future relics and weapons will be forged by Solus Prime? And it channels the Matrix which makes no sense because the Matrix's power is knowledge and wisdom and, well, already exists and Optimus has it. Seems like that should be something else instead of a macguffin we already know about. I'm really, really tired of every ep focusing on a macguffin of some kind, be it a relic or a new character.

    The dialogue is just as clunky and unnatural as ever and Smokescreen is pretty stupid. His just rushing in like a moron here kinda contradicts his thought-out attack on Starscream in his debut ep. I'm tired of these idiotic, impulsive characters that cartoon makers assume anybody is not going to just roll their eyes at them. Also does the animation seem really bouncy and weird to anyone else?

    "Scrap! It's really in there tight."

    That's what she said... :p 

    Was Solus Prime the Autobot weapons speacialist or something?
