    Does anyone know, if the other guys, Bumble Bee, Grimlock, or Strongarm, will get a repaint, since the "away team" got their repaint? It looks like the repaint has staying power.

    I don't keep track of the paint jobs?

    The episode was ok I'm starting to like wingblade even tho in this episode she started to annoy me. I feel like Peter Cullen got to act way more in this episode as optimus wasn't just one note which was great

    ^^ True it does, but on Wikipedia I only taken Wikipedia's face value because sometimes Wikipedia does not have the facts straight ^^

    Being that RID 2015 changed to less episodes, I only Wikipedia's information with a "grain of salt"

    This episode has it's ups and downs.

    I love the whole father-daughter scenario here. Optimus was awesome. Knew it was a strategy from the moment he fell down. And he kicked @$$ afterwards.

    There were some negative points like Drift waiting for his students' "test" and the Windblade-groundhog scene. I cringed.

    This was probably the best episode of the entire season so far. Yes, there were some cringe-worthy scenes (this series has a lot of them), but there were a lot less of them compared to the previous episodes. I liked the Mini-Cons, Razorpaw was interesting, and Optimus Prime was actually a character for once. Windblade and Optimus Prime's dynamic felt natural, unlike how Arcee and Optimus Prime's dynamic in Prime felt forced. Much better than any of the episodes in Season 2 so far.

    In this whole episode I was internally wondering where Ratchet was in all this. They need a medic, not any more gung-ho warriors. xD

    I also noticed that Sideswipes now has a nickname for Windswipe since he called her "Windy" at one point. I don't know if this nickname was used in previous episodes so correct me if I am wrong.

    It's crazy how Optimus has started getting a bit of a personality.

    I'm liking this new Optimus actually.

    The plot identification doesn't really explain the episode or describes the episode exactly either

    Most plot identification doesn't explain most of the episodes in rid2015

    Little off the subject:

    In the episode, Metal Meltdown, Steeljaw, said he was "misdirected" has anyone noticed similar patterns within the past episodes.

    It could be coincidence also.

    Misdirected? Steeljaw was only trying to recruit Kickback to join him.

    Same here. He's the first Optimus Prime in 10 years that actually fits the character.
    They may not be romantically involved, but they do care for each other (evident by Windblade's actions towards Optimus Prime), so it is true that they care about each other, but they're not romantically involved. You kind of need to cool down, not every shipment with Optimus Prime has to be with Arcee. Then things would get really boring really fast.
    This episode kind of sent Windblade back on her heels, and not the "Cool Fembot" that she usually tries to portray.
