    The explosion busted the armor into itty-bitty pieces, at best. I know the mods are cool and all that, but simple logic dictates that we very probably aren't gonna see them again...

    This may just be me, but Prowls upgrades reminded me SOOO much of Gundam Seed's Calamity Gundam. I know it was meant to be a Samurai, but I can't shake the feeling.....

    but another set of boosters could have been made. We don't really know if the boosters used by BB in recent episodes are the same ones form before. Those weren't really special boosters so duplicates can be made. The armor on the other hand, were from another transformer. It'll be harder to duplicate. Not impossible to duplicate (as we can see Starscream can clone himself), but more difficult nonetheless.

    BB bought those boosters in a store right? So he can buy as much new ones as he wants ;D Until they run out of stock of course :p

    It was indeed an awesome episode.

    However, i didnt see the need in painting 1 of the "Starscream clones" in the Sunstorm color-scheme. Even trough it was a little "fan-gift" ... :dunce 

    + Prowl armor
    + Lockdown action !
    + The EMP is back !
    + Grimlock ( lol )

    - Again no search for Isaac Sumdac ...

    Overall, a nice episode :)

    listen to the dialogue of the episode-it is impied that they are the same ones from before :

    BB: "but we gotta find that blue racer! if i could just use my old turboboosters"

    Ratchet: "last time you used those things, you nearly flattened Sari and Prime"

    many say its not G1 colored because he has black instead of blue, a light tan instead of grey, and tomoato redish burt sienna coloring instead of red. i thought he was G1 colored as well-now i just call him Burnt screamer cause all his colors are burntish ones

    Aye, unlike the real homage clones, the colours of these Starscreams are just his normal colours with the hues messed with. No G1 colours, no Sunstorm homage. (yet)

    <- Is excited. Swindle episode tomorrow! Yay!

    That was a pretty complicated procedure to remove that spike.

    I don't see how people are seeing Sunstorm in that Starscream.

    Sunstorm has bright oranges and yellows.
    While this Starscream is red/burnt orange/brown and Grey with a red hue.

    Great episode,luved it.....it was hilarious that Prowl faked a bad transmission to Prime while talking making even fart sounds.LOL I was laughing hard!

    Prowls upgrade was nice,I assume that Hasbro will release a Prowl side car that will attach to his alt mode but also will able to take apart to combine as armor.


    But Starscream was awesome in this episode this is the Starscream I remember not a moron that dies over and over and over and over by Megatron hands but thinking sooooo cunning....that was amazing that Starscream cloned himself as a trap for Megatron and anyone else looking for him.


    And I guess those Starscream clones will somehow get some allspark in them and be the seekers and that female seeker.



    OH YEAH!!! Grimlock spike in the foot.....in my opinion was stupid! The writers should have should a different way that Prowl respects organic life....I got the point but Grimlock going primal over a nail in his foot...okaayyy

    I'm not sure how I feel about this episode. I loved how Starscream outwitted everyone (not sure why one of the clones was orange), Lockdown, and Prowl's super look. I really want a Prowl toy of that samurai look.

    What I didn't like was the whole "you get modified and then you get power-hungry/cocky/careless/lose your true self/for weak processors" crap. I don't see why one has to mean the other in this series. Prowl screwing up at times is fine to show but I didn't like the message where if the playing field is evened a little, you tend to become more Decepticon-ish.

    I think it was more like "You give somebody a gun and he thinks he's ready to take out the whole world"
