Transformers Prime

And Metroplex, for the absolute last word in 'huge'.

If they somehow revive him, then yeah.

Good point. I guess they would be gamebreaking as a combiner.

All it'd take would be a great big dose of Energon. It's feasible, though not easy.

Go to 14:40.

edit: This is sounding a lot like an idea I had for a TF show...

http://www.tfw2005.com/transformers-news/transformers-prime-39/transformers-prime-episode-50-patch-clip-176138/ Nice sunset. But is it just me or do their voices really sound wrong?

Damn. That was so obvious. Starscream handing him the Omega Keys gave him enough Leeway for Megatron to consider his offer, but he's still checking to be sure.

It does likely mean he'll find out about how Screamer tried to defect to the Autobots, and how he sold them out on the location of the Space bridge, but if he can convince Megatron that he's truly on the level now, it might save him.

If it's true, Megs gets Cyberton back, and a competent soldier, who will serve as an example of Megatron's mercy(being allowed back into the fold) and how bad an idea it is to cross him(due to how pathetic Starscream was during that time).

If not, he kills Starsceam, and still gets Cyberton back.

Here are the Predacons we know so far.

Twinstrike◊

Laserback in beast◊ and robot modes.◊

Finally we have Predaking, presumably their leader.◊

I hope the Predacons have actual personalities. Them being mindless beasts would get old fast.

Wall puns!

Reading that in Frank Welker's new Megatron voice almost works, he wouldn't bother actually hanging around him and doing that but the sarcastic tone is spot on.

The cortical psychic patch is seeing more use, that's nice. Also, dancing Screamer.

But I still think that giving 3 of the keys to Megatron and keeping the fourth as a bargaining chip would be more prudent.

Kind of feel sorry for Dreadwing when he finds out the fate of his twin.

This episode was great. You could tell Megatron was having fun toying with Starscream. Megatron made a surprisingly rational decision in allowing Starscream to rejoin them because the Decepticons need to be united. And it looks like Dreadwing having reservations about the Decepticons has risen up again. I thought that may have been an Aborted Arc.

Knock-out is always brilliant, he's almost like an audience stand-in for the Decepticons.

'This is getting juicy!' And oh was it ever.

I was wondering when Skyquake's zombified corpse would come back into play.

If there's one thing to be said about this series, it's that they do clip shows right.

Both Megatron and Starscream made the right choice.

In addition, it is funny that the most rebellious con was the one who apparently kept things running smoothly(i.e. no rebellions).

Watches preview

How the fuck did they get the forge of Solus Prime back?

Patience there will be an explanation soon enough. Even though we have to wait a whole week. In all honesty, they really try to up the ante every time we get to the Season Finale. First there was Unicron, and now the War for the right to rebuild cybertron. Talk about higher stakes!!!!

In other thoughts, I actually think that with all the large numbers of troops they keep using, these clip shows keep cropping up as their Bottle Episode in order to prepare themselves for later. I mean look at the scale. It's incredible.

I actually think Megatron's reasoning is pretty neat. If you think about it, the cons were rather unruly after scream left, though part of that could be attributed to arachnid. I have to wonder though, what else did scream reveal to megatron in that session?

Also, dancing scream for the win.

Yeah, I forgot about that part.

They were clearly saving that one, since it wasn't in the actual episode. I wonder how many seconds he waited before that one started.

My best guess is that Dreadwing sneaks it to them.

I didn't think there'd be any moment in TFP that would be worthy of Brain Bleach........until I saw Starscream "gyrating". **heaves**

So is anyone else taking the ending as a hint that Dreadwing may actually defect to the Autobots?

How else do you think Optimus has the Forge of Solus Prime in the next episode? Of course, I never thought about using it as a method to build some sort of gateway to Cybertron. The preview also confirms some suspicions I've had regarding the Star Saber, and we are getting the Chekhov's Armory pulled out for a grand slam Season Finale.

As for this episode, it's a very interesting Villain Episode, with the Autobots not around at all. It's ultimately a Clip Show like "Grill," but similarly it redeems itself by asking some big questions that needed to be asked. Yes, Starscream has undermined Megatron at almost every turn and his supposedly redeeming moments had a level of selfishness to them as well. But Megatron's reasoning is somewhat sound, the idea of putting an end to the infighting that has proven to be an advantage to the Autobots the entire time. He wants Starscreams skills on his side and not against him. It is ironic that probing Starscream's actions and motivations has revealed some information about Skyquake that Dreadwing was apparently not informed about, which evidently will turn one of the more loyal 'Cons against Megatron.

I think that they kind of had to give the Forge to the Autobots. The 'cons would be all but unstoppable with if they'd use it more and the Autobots do need an advantage.

I wish the possibility of Starscream wanting Megatron's approval/respect (like William Fowler alluded to) had been brought up; I wanted to hear Magatron's reaction to that.

Well, I'm glad that the Star Saber was reforge. I just hope it's more durable.
