"It all began about 9 million years ago." "Oh great. Its going to be one of those LONG stories". Be careful what you ask for, Ratchet.

Moral of the Episode: Just because somebody has a strange or unique power (or at least seems to), doesn't necessarily mean they're a good person...
_cough_ Omni Man _cough_
True man
Doomguy/Slayer.
That's so true in real life as well.
And knowing is half the battle.
Wait! Wrong show.
It’s such a silly little thing but the scene where starscream is fixing skywarp’s wing is so nice. I don’t think the seekers ever really interact positively with each other in most episodes
The thing is there are so many seekers that never got named.Purple , Green,Turquoise,etc, name a color seekers don't have. I even saw a brown and white seeker in an episode
@@ronkali5365 I have not seen a G1 Seeker that has rose pink as a primary color. lol
@@ronkali5365 looks like they weren't strong enough for the Decepticons
There's some headcanons about the seekers being technically speaking a race among the Decepticons themselves. I think in IDW this was used with the "cold construction" as a manner to explain sparks were assigned to build in series flying transformers.
As such, sometimes seekers often see each other as brothers or fellows to an extend.
@@clownplayer7265 Oh yeah it’s interesting what canon and fans have both done in more recent years to explain how seekers operate within their own social/familial circles and why they’re always in groups, etc. Which makes it really funny to look back at g1 and see how they do not give af about each other 90% of the time lol 😆. I guess that’s why the scene I mentioned in the original comment caught me a little off guard. Usually starscream, skywarp and thundercracker have no problems with antagonizing/hurting each other (or throwing each other out of space ships lol). It’s just a nice little moment :]
I still like the theory that Dion was rebuilt into Ultra Magnus, which explains Optimus and Magnus’s relationship.
OH THAT MAKES SENSE Optimus and Magnus were old friends so that’s very possible
@@Longinusprime1320 it has also be stated that Optimus and Ultra Magnus are brothers and while here they wouldn’t be brothers like Sideswipe and Sunstreaker, they would still be close enough to be considered brothers
Based on the timeline some of those drone types were probably rebuilt as the seekers like star scream and them.others were put away. Maybe in that detention center wonder what was of shockwave maybe his spot was held by obsidian.
@@c.glazercrush3994 there was lots of tfs that looked alike in the beginning of Megatron's war he seemed to prefer drones or recruit through his robo smasher
Seems like meg's, soundwave and shockwave was the first recruits meg's had or they was in all created together which explains why meg's and shockwave and soundwave is so close
Meg's said starscream joined the decepticons
@@tridentsilver766 Dion was a character that was written to be killed
Lots of transformers was written just to be killed since they wasn't given the green light to kill a major character but someone had to go
Believe war dawn was giving is hints at the movie every autobot in this episode died in the movie
Screamer died, meg's, thindercracker and skywarp wass rebuilt
Yes, this episode is about the origin of Optimus Prime, but I like how this also highlighted Ratchet of being an 'ol grumpy doc bot. 😂
Well I mean look at animated and prime ratchet
Ratchet has never had the best bedside manner, has he? But in some ways his behavior here owns up to his character profile.
Hands down, one of my favorite episodes. It has great character development and growth for the Aerialbots and it explores the history of the franchise (which always left me wanting for more about the history of Cybertron...but was barely explored, unfortunately). People may scoff at shows produced to be "episodic commercials" in order to sell toys, but when some of these writers come up with episodes like this, that are better than modern-day cartoons' shows as a whole, well, one may understand the nostalgia old fans, like me, feel for this show as opposed to the stuff that comes out nowadays.
The,Transformers in my opinion was,way a head of its time. The ability of a robot to transform , the great voices of prime and star scream, great scripts .The only thing that came close to it in my opinion was He Man.
A more complex series ,maybe the best ever created was the Xmen of the 90s.
Totally right.. man have you seen inhumanoids now thats a trip
You're well within your right to be nostalgic for the 80's cartoons, but it's very clear you haven't been paying attention to the quality that modern cartoons are putting out. Character driven, continuous narratives are by far the most popular form of children's cartoons right now that regularly tackles backstory, world building, and character exploration.
@@Diaboragon It depends on what cartoons you are speaking about. Some modern toons are pretty entertaining, others are garbage.
But let's not get mixed up between cartoons for adults and toons for kids (if that is what you are speaking about. As a kid, the 80's toons were of great quality, most toons for kids these days are simply mindless drivel.
@@roadkillz78 No, we are absolutely not mixing up cartoons for adults and kids. Shows like Owl House, Infinity Train, Amphibia, Adventure Time and Gravity Falls are all for kids, they just have storytelling that can entertain adults as well. Just because you want to divide them up to prove some point doesn't make them any less dedicated towards children. I'm sorry you're so threatened by the idea of today's kids having equally quality entertainment as you did, but actually just get over it.
Rob Paulsen did a GREAT job putting anguish and anger in Slingshot's voice when he's shouting at the retreating Decepticons.
Yeah, Slingshot was REALLY enraged at Megatron as he actually admired him and the Decepticons only to learn how brutal they truly were. Having emotional ties with Orion Pax and his friends of course is what led to him and the other Aerialbots fully committing themselves to the Autobot cause.
@@girlgarde
Pretty damn good writing for a half hour toy commercial!
His name is Robert Paulson!
Agreed. I would also add that he did an excellent job of putting sadness and anger in Slingshot's voice when he and Silverbolt are carrying the deactivated body of Orion hoping to have him repaired and brought back to life.
He also voice Carl Wheezer in Jimmy Neutron and did voice in Gi joe and other known voice over works.
The looks on the faces of the Aerialbots when they saw that Orion Pax the young Autobot they became friends with would be destined to become Optimus Prime and that they had a hand in it by bringing him to the same Bot that helped build them a much younger Alpha Trion.
I can only imagine that they would brag about that for the rest of time lol.
@@RemixOfTheVoidMan you can consider it ironic that Optimus and the others had a hand in building the AerialBots and Megatron sends them into the past where they end up on Cybertron during it's golden age and meet an innocent dock worker bot named Orion Pax who after had a near fatal encounter with Megatron causing the AerialBots to save him and his girlfriend Ariel and his best friend Dio to be brought to a young Alpha Trion to be rebuilt into Elita 1,possibly either Ultra Magnus or IronHide and Cybertron's greatest hero Optimus Prime so what Megatron did by creating that time machine of his as I mentioned in a previous comment nearly created a temporal paradox by sending the AerialBots into the past to fulfill they're destiny.
@nicholasmorsovillo2752 Beast Wars made it crazier, cause the Aerialbots couldn't have existed if the other bots had been wiped out in the past, and if they didn't exist, neither would Optimus Prime.
@@RemixOfTheVoidso if Optimus had been destroyed in beast wars, Orion would have been destroyed here
@@AutoRevLife Precisely
This origin basically makes Optimus Prime the robot version of Captain America. Not a bad way to go all things considered.
By that logic, as much as Megatron laughed in general in G1 and as crazier he became as Galvatron and purple to boot, that makes him the robot version of the Joker
@@chrismc410 More like the Red Skull, but with purple. You always have to have a Red Skull vs Captain America.
Nice
Red, white, and blue colors match
They also did the same thing in the Transformers Prime series.
Who is here after watching Transformer One?
I am.
I’m here a lot, but this episode just became very prescient
Yeah! Till all are one! Vine aquí después de ver Trasformers One para recordar 👍
Me😊
Here Too.😢
Only thing better than the Aerialbots realizing that they are the ones who bring Optimus to life by saving Orion, but Optimus face when he realizes they saved him.
You even hear it too in Optimus' voice when he goes "You!" after Silverbolt calls him Orion Pax. :) Just the shock and realization how the Aerialbots saved him when he was young.
“A warrior doesn’t need a head, just a good, strong body.”
Megatron, 1985
Orion Pax, potential Megatron groupie to eternal nemesis!
Yep.
Idw Orion pax admired megatron
The original Stan.
Out of all the Combiner Teams, the Aerialbots always came across as having the most focus and development for me. You can see a distinct dynamic between them here and in their debut eps.
The Constructicons too, I think.
Now I know why Superion has a strong disdain for Decepticons in his toy bio.
I APPROVE!!!
No it was the Predacons. Only Skylinx was their equal regardless if they were indidvuals or combined in Prediking.
Predakons as predaking would beat them all hands down then menacor.
@@sccc6758 Predacons = Predaking
STUNTACONS = Menasor.
One of the most important pieces of media in Transformers history.
Hands down one of the best G1 episodes. What made it great for me was not just the origin story of Optimus Prime but the fact that apart from the Aerialbots and Omega Supreme all the characters in the present (1985) were the original characters from the pilot. It almost felt like an early Season 1 episode late into Season 2. And the fact that it took place on Cybertron made it all that more awesome.
The only regrettable aspect is that John Stephenson did not voice Thundercracker for that one short line he had. Especially since we hardly have any dailogue at all from Thundercracker in later episodes.
I've seen this ep countless times and I only just noticed that about Thundercracker for the first time..l had just watched the scene before l read your comment and wondered if it was a different voice actor or if he just delivered that line differently for some reason.
@@TF80s in that episode Thundercracker was voice by Walker Edmiston (the same guy who did the voice for Inferno)
What shocked me was that in season three prime, Ironhide, ratchet and wheeljack would be dead so.wpuld screamer
Megatron, thindercracker and skywarp would be remodeled into you know who
@@WickedAndWhacked wally burr did it according to tf wiki
_"If I know anything about this planet, they wouldn't be missed"_ Well, he's not wrong.
It's all thanks to 🇺🇸
@@cristsan4171You assume the U.S. is the only country with bad or corrupt leaders.
Having a cartoon that went back to the past shows how this show was Superb. Transformers generation one and Xmen where the best in my opinion. This episode and the Origin of OMEGA Supreme.
Spiderman 70s animation.
Aerialbots took a complete 180 from loving the 'Cons strength to outright hating their very existence by the end of it for their atrocities, and their hatred is amplified as Superion.
I APPROVE!!!
I actually think Megatron miscalculated here. Had he feigned being nice with the Aerialbots, sent Starscream's jets to play mentor to them, he could have easily recruited them into the Decepticons. Instead, by tricking and betraying them, he cemented their determination to be Autobots.
@@jeanettewu2537 Yep, but that is Megatron. He wanted control, and got desperate. Actually the Autobots stopped the crono device in time for the the Aerials to be put in the right time and right place to see who their enemy really is.
@@donmccullen1973 Yep. He did the same thing with Skyfire.
@@jeanettewu2537 Megatron had enough seekers and jets already and he had plenty more on Cybertron what did ne need the aerialbots for
@@jeanettewu2537 Yeah plus Megatron could easily have told the Aerialbots about the bad things the Autobots did to the Decepticons in the past which drove them to rise against him. Many fans speculate that the Autobots constantly mistreated the Decepticons during the Golden Age of Cybertron and treated them like 2nd class citizens and I tend to believe that.
While it doesn't excuse the extreme actions of the Decepticons, it would explain why they waged war on the Autobots. If Megatron had told the Aerialbots these things combined with the other things you mentioned, he could've gotten them to become Decepticons as with the exception of Silverbolt were doubtful that the war was entirely their fault.
As for Megatron's actions against Orion Pax and his friends, Megatron could've been driven by hatred for the Autobots and their mistreatment of his people along with keeping them from their rightful place as leaders of a Cybertronian Empire and saw all Autobots as scum. Of course, the Aerialbots had emotional ties to Orion Pax and his friends and since they hadn't done anything bad to the Decepticons, they were rightfully enraged at Megatron and ended up being determined to stop him no matter what.
Orion Pax’s design was the look intended for Ultra Magnus, until Hasbro decided to use the Diaclone Powered Convoy toy for him.
Well, Power of the Primes Optimus Prime pretty much covers this. The cab module is Orion, merge him with his trailer, and you get Optimus Prime.
I love how the aerialbots made the choice Optimus Prime he hoped they would make to honour Alpha Trion
I just rewatched The Key to Vector Sigma, and I'm really glad you pointed this out.
My friends and I loved watching the Transformers: War Dawn because we learned how to choose our friends wisely. This is one of many of the original version stories of the Transformers that I still love to watch.📺📺📺📺📺🍿🍿🍿💕💕
That's cool. The friends we have often determine the choices we make.
So in this way, Megatron's scheme to get rid of the 5+1 Autobot planes end up as the reason why Orion Pax became Optimus. (Ignoring the time travel paradox, at least)
Pushes Megatron into 'Good Job Fixing It, Villain' territory.
The origin of Optimus Prime. TIMELESS no pun intended
Love how the deceptions blow the head off the very same guardian they will again use to attack the autobots in the future
Hahahahah. That’s great!
How ironic
Literally something I didn't notice until I rewatched it today. I first saw this episode back in either 2009 or 2010, and ONLY just saw that lol
16:44 - “I was wrong, my friends. I admired Megatron merely because he was powerful. I failed to see _HOW_ he used that power.” - Such a great line from Optimus and a powerful lesson he learned after Megatron almost killed him when he was Orion Pax.
Wow.. I just noticed: Neither Rob Paulsen nor Samantha Newark got a voice credit for this episode. They definitely deserve it!
They started late in season 2. Also Charlie Adler, Laurie Faso, and others didn't get the voice credit either.
This is one of The Transformers' best outings. The core premise of going back into the past of the universe is honestly well done and awesome, and there's very few animation goofs as well.
And wait, a bunch of Transformers from the future go back in time to an important event in history... Hey Hasbro, are you guys gonna follow up your uploads of The Transformers with uploads of Beast Wars: Transformers?
13:42 turning his head to the right when dead. Thats Optimus Prime alright lol
Orion was a Cybertronian Amazon warehouse manager, that's enough to drive anybody to war.
The sequence of the Aerialbots returning from the past, with the music and the high stakes, has been my favourite part of the series since I was a kid.
20:46 - Rob Paulsen goes absolutely HAM in the recording booth. Excellent performance!!
Funny rob Paulsen doesn't remember doing transformers guy had a busy schedule guess he looked at it as a job and taking whatever gig he could at the time but I think.transforners was one of the first things he's done if im.not mistaken
@@chrisedwards3214 Well, it's not like he played memorable characters. He played two Combiner limbs for three episodes.
@@Davethe3rd Peter cullen forgot he played Mario in Saturday supercade

@@chrisedwards3214 Mighty Man and Yukk was the first paring of Peter Cullen and Frank Welker.
@@Davethe3rd Paulsen was just starting out then and I guess he just looked at this as a paying gig
If Megatron had been *really* clever, he would've sent them back without Silverbolt. Bolt was the only voice of reason in the the Aerialbots' first ep, and he was the only reason they were in the right place at the right time here. If not, they probably would have been stuck up long enough to be more trouble than they were worth, or worse, just like Meganut wanted. Decepticons always mess up their own plans.
Yeah but its a kiddie cartoon so they have to have the Decepticons mess up their own plans. In reality, they would've sought to convert the Aerialbots to the Decepticon cause and likely succeeded with the exception of Silverbolt of course who was pro-Autobot from the very start.
Of course, Slingshot and the other Aerialbots were only iffy because the Humans at a military base fired on them thinking that the Autobots attacked them earlier when it was in fact the Stunticons. It never occurred to those idiot Humans that the Decepticons could've gotten reinforcements from Cybertron so the Humans too were idiots at times who messed things up.
Even if he did, the others would've seen how war hungry Megatron of the past was and would've changed.
Eventually, yes. All I was saying was that they would not have been witness to the Massacre at the Energon Storage Facility. The other Autobots might not have had as easy a time getting them back, even with the supposed Recall function, depending how it works.
Only true Decepticons--inherent or reprogrammed--or certain Autobot criminals were susceptible to the power madness of their inferred allegiance. (This except for the Decepticons who really were just in it because they were true "followers," i.e. Soundwave.)
The Aerialbots would have surely switched sides or more likely high tailed it to a more active part of the Galaxy / universe--think Season 3 rather than Season 2--where they didn't have to deal with the monotony of a war that shouldn't be their problem.
To be fair with Megatron, the aerialbots were pretty new warriors, practically fresh meat that just happened to be elite from the get go.
It's easy to assume he just simply hasn't have the time to fully know his new enemies yet.
The Aerialbots got a front-row seat at seeing the birth of a legend.
Probably one of the best episodes of the series.
As showcased by Optimus, any newly built robot is temporary impervious to any laser shots from an older robot.
invincibility frames
Nah his respawn shield was still counting down 😂
So much nostalgia watching these now as I did on Saturday morning as a kid 💯
"From what I've been able to learn about this planet, they wouldn't be missed"
Too true, Skydive, too true.
Starscream: I'll teach you some things about Decepticons alright.
Me: Apart from the fact they call themselves 'Decept'icons.
For all the animation errors, this is STILL one of my favorite episodes. I mean, the origin of Optimus Prime?!? Idk how I COULDN'T love it!
I still enjoy this origin story for Optimus Prime over the others.
My favourite is the Story in Transformers Prime. They combined the old G1 Story with the newer Story of former Primes
This is more true i think
I enjoyed this origin along with Transformers Prime’s origin.
Isn't this still his origin? He was still Orion Pax. They just changed his occupation.
@@ixiahj That does make sense. And there is some wisdom that can be gained from being what's basically a warehouse manager.
Bravo! This is one of my favorite episodes of the series. I like this viewpoint of the war beginning better than other stories since.
This is the beginning of the THIRD Great War NOT the war itself. The FIRST Great War was the rebellion against the Quintessons. The SECOND Great War was Autobots vs Decepticons where they developed transformations🤓
@@great159 Thanks for clearing that up. I thought that the Cybertronian Wars were always Autobot vs Decepticon with different Primes and Leaders of both sides clashing.
Anyone noticed how Megatron's first army consistented mainly of transformers that turned into boxes?
Probably the most important episode of G1 TRANSFORMERS. Love this episode a lot.
Another important one was the history of OMEGA Supreme.
So can we talk about how Megatron created freaking time travel and all he wanted to use it for was to gather energy from the past? Lmao love it
And throw the Aerialbots back in time. He could have gone back to do any number of things yet his present existence is most important. Though as we see in this episode going back in time to change the course of history would not have done so since any time travel is already part of history.
Makes you wonder why Megatron didn't build another time machine?
Unless the time machine he acquired is not his, and it is a 'lost technology' in which Megatron found it.
Respecting time laws I see
Love it when Megatron gives them a dressing down "you fools!" says it with such conviction.
He's the main reason why I call people fool lol
Coming soon to a theater near you.
At 16:43, the Arialbots jaw dropped expressions must have been the same for Transformers fans when this first aired on television. It was my expression the first time I saw this episode in 2007.
100%. I remember watching it when it first aired. I was like 😮
One of the best episodes of the G1 Transformers.
Optimus gets saved by time-travellers from the future a lot, doesn't he? It happened again when he was in stasis lock after the Ark's crash.
Oh yeah, that’s right. Beast Wars
Beast Wars is NOT cannon to the original Transformers show. The writers even said it and it shows.
@@great159 canon = legitimate
cannon = galvaton's alt mode
@@great159 In Japan it’s connected to G1 and that’s also what I choose believe
Transformers One brought me here. I actually forgot about Orion Pax and Ariel / Elita-One. It turns out that the female pink robot in the movie is NOT Arcee.
I only remembered that Alpha Trion was the father/creator of Optimus Prime.
I thought Elita-1 was Arcee during almost the entire time I was watching the movie until I actually saw her in the crowd towards the end. I never watched this show until after watching Transformers One so I actually never knew who Elita-1 was until now and when I saw Ariel in short clips back in the day I always confused her for Arcee then too
6:07
Skywarp: Are those guys crazy?
Starscream: Crazy or even dumber than I suspected.
I love this 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Skywarp’s tone made it that much better
Now do you see why Alpha Trion merged with Vector Sigma? He saw the predestination paradox.
20:31 I love when Superion's like, "Okay, I've had just about enough of this" and beats the Guardian in one punch.
17:44
Megatron:*Shocked*You,Who Are You?

Survived to the end of The Headmasters, what's this "Rebirth" trash you're talking about?
@@chrisedwards3214 they did survive rebirth even though they were taken down twice but still i would have prefered them have more screen time especially since we saw them running from abominus when they could have just formed superion and kicked abominus back into his components so yea i agree it sucks to be a s2 bot in s4, but atleast they were given justice in the japanese exclusive headmasters sequel series to S3
"Wow, those robots can fly!"
Orion Pax then takes off a few moments later. :D
Before Optimus Prime, there was Orion Pax.
This episose was a great lesson for any Transformers fan out there. This episode teaches us that Optimus wasn't always the great leader he is today. He was also once young, naive, & careless, before growing into the great powerful leader he is today.
Reminds me of Hot Rod.
Yeah cheers grandad
Destroy the time machine now repair the time machine
That's a lot of story packed into one episode.
Seeing Characters actually DIE in the G1 Cartoon (Especially this Episode) is actually surprising, especially if you watched the 1986 movie which was infamous for killing of most of the characters from Season 1 and some from Season 2 aswell!
Well actually they didn't die orion turned into prime and the girl eleta 1 true Didn’t say about dion but sounds like he wasn't dead so probably rebuilt to possibly into ultra magnus but that's fan theory 🤔
20:34 Ever seen a robot have an ANGRY face??? Here is my boy Superion.
Optimus told vector sigma. "Let them think for themselves. To grow in knowledge and wisdom. And let them always value freedom and life where ever they find it" That's the core of who each was, so it was hard for them believe that the Decepticons are nothing like that. Not until they experienced it for themselves
Which is 1 of the GREATEST reasons why Optimus Prime was 1 of the greatest heroes of all-time. Quotes like that
Megaton: Destroy them! Destroy the Guardians!
Cy-Kil: That’s my line!
Nice
20:11 I love Superion's challenge declaration to the Guardian robot.
I think if I had to give my favorite all time G1 episode, it would be this one. A pretty good origin story for Optimus Prime.
Does anyone here subscribe to the theory that Dion, Orion Pax’s buddy here, would be rebuilt into Ultra Magnus?
Kinda but Hb is quite shy to it. In DW it is highly alluded to.
I think he was, but before he was given a better body for fighting
The real question is, why does Ultra Magnus always get punked!
Well Magnus could be a completely different character, the two of them don't have to be relate
Weirdly I always thought Kup looked closer to Dion back in the day.
12:50 “Out of my way _____!”

That couldn’t be what he said. A little help please?
he calls him a fool.

Orion was actually very pretty. In later canon iterations showing Optimus without a faceplate he’s either badly scarred, sort of odd looking, or visibly aged. Also creators have had a hard time processing the thought of a young Megatron, as if he was always old (that could technically happen if he was constructed from recycled or stolen old parts though)
Megatron was just created around this time he decided to put together an army and take over cybertron
@@chrisedwards3214 a young Megatron would of been crazy,I'd imagine he'd like to blow things up.he hung with shockwave who had a face before until it was blown up by some autobot general.starskream thunder cracker and rumble would be around him as well.The culprit who blew up soundwaves face worked for obsidian and striker.The team got modified into their current look by the fallen along with the ancient cunstructicon group.This would put things into perspective and along with the gladiatorial combat and loses of Conrad's would be the build for Megatron's rage.

People watching this for transformers One

The fact Megatron didn't take advantage of the opportunity to convince the AerialBots that the Decepticons weren't entirely evil and possibly make them join him and fight against the Autobots shows how his ego and hatred sometimes gets the better of him. He could have turned at least 4 of them over which gets rid of Superion and basically gives the Decepticons back full control of the skies.
I love this episode for having aerialbot focus and lore, but at the same time G1 Orion Pax is my sleep paralysis demon
Hasbro Pulse needs to have a 24-7 live feed of the transformers like the gi Joe ones on here
So optimus only exists because of aerialbots and aerialbots only exist because of optimus, that's a paradox
“Hello there! I’m Megatron, what’s your name?”
“I need an adult, I need an adult!”
Megatron; i am an adult
Great episode ..... one of my favourites back in the day..... 👌🔥👏
It is practically one of the best episodes - with many errors about continuity of time/events in the warehouse but an excellent episode about the history of old cybertron
What errors?
This episode was done first, so everything that came after was wrong, in terms of lore errors.
@@HerohammerStudios About 2, Elita is inside of the warehouse but appears twice out of the warehouse running with the Aerialbots, all of them running together to the warehouse. But she is already in the warehouse, so he appears 2 times, inside and outside at the same time, the events are not correct.
@@PaulDavies4 read my other comment ...
I don't understand why the Aerialbots didn't transform in the past.
Megatron blew the head off the Guardian 9 million years before he used the same robot now.
The Guardian and The Omega Sentinels in the comic both were the basis for Omega Supreme.
Megatron talking about not needing a head must've inspired the idea of the Headmasters.
Optimus: "Our only hope is to repair these time controls."
Slingshot: "Hey shooter, we just landed."
Ironhide: "How did you all get back here?"
Silverbolt: "After helping Orion Pax we went down to Vector Sigma and hid in a corner and set a timer on stasis lock."
Love how the Arielbots saved the hostages. They would have went SPLAT!
17:56, Optimus went Rambo mode.
At some point during the reruns of season 3, this episode aired in our local market. And until that point I, like many other kids, were in the mindset of "newer = better." Then after a run of episodes with Rodimus and season 3 characters, including Dark Awakening (with the original ending), this show aired, and made me realize how much I missed the first two seasons, to where I couldn't stand season 3 at all. Not that season 3 was bad, but that I preferred seasons 1-2 better (read: pre-movie). I then set out to get all of those episodes I could find (glad to have the box set now), but It all started with this episode.
The Season 3 Autobots are loveable in my opinion, but I wish at least more of the Season 1-2 autobots had guest roles in Season 3.
@@jjjsalang season 1 and 2 autobots>>>season 3 autobots.
@@domingorubies656, I agree. It took time watching the Season 3 episodes for me to appreciate the Season 3 autobots. However, Season 1 - 2 autobots were better.
@@jjjsalang Decepticons too. Although Predaking and Trypticon are cool.
It honestly wouldn't have been so bad if they weren't trying to kill/replace ALL the original characters...But hey, we get more Dinobots, so that's always a plus season 3 did. Also Grimlock saving the universe.
At 13:30 there is a error it briefly shows ariel running with the aerial bots then in the next scene she's on the ground damaged
I saw that
A villain creating his own nemesis by accident. Classic.
Golden age decepticon: So what alt mode did you get?
Other decepticon: cube
Orion Pax : Optimus Prime.
Dion : Ultra Magnus.
Ariel : Elita-1
Man seeing this now is crazy....like it was so simple but a great Idea and this Idea got expanded so much that it became the Base for almost every TF Story nowadays.....
Really Enjoying G1 a hell lot more than i expected...only a few Episodes left with the Season 1 & 2 Characters....but i can definitley say......its been a great Journey
Ratchet:"Would somebody tell me what in the blazes this is all about?"
The aerial fight at the beginning is sick I had to replay it again and again and it's kinda cute how the jets regularly just admire each other's skills like the time when the coneheads admired powerglide's maneuvers
That would be thrust
I loved seeing Optimus Prime's origin story.
Season 1: "Hey kids. Meet Optimus Prime. Isn't he cool?"
Season 2: "Hey Kids. Here's how Optimus Prime came to be."
The Movie: "Hey Kids. Here's Optimus Prime on his death bed."
Season 3: "Hey Kids. Here's Optimus Prime as a walking zombie....oh and he dies again."
Season 4: "Hey Kids. Here's Optimus Prime for 3 Episodes."
they never intended to kill him off for good, they just ran out of oomph altogether by the end
This is one of the best episodes of Transformers i've seen. The story is truly magnificent.
Seeing Orion Pax, Arielle and Dion is a treat before they became the characters we know and love.
I wrote a fan ficton where Orion Pax and Dion were homeless in Iacon. Taking inspiration from IDW, many of the lower classes were destitute or forced to live and work in dangeroud conditions. One day, Ariel was being accosted by a group of young elites. Orion and Dion come to her rescue, but they nearly get their asses handed to them when Ariel's employer, Solaris Nova, shows up and handles them herself. She ends up giving Orion and Dion jobs in her loading docks. Novs is also the mother of Tracks and Road Rage (Sol). She was outspoken and eventually turns her back on the elite and joins the Autobots. She ends up mortally wounded in defeating Silverstar, a double-agent of Megatron and Shockwave, who nearly doomed the Ark as it escaped.
Tracks escaped with Beachcomber, Blaster, Cosmis, and a few other bots from Season 2. Road Rage fled with Crosscut as his boduguard until she was captured by while protecting him. She was apprehended by Shockwave and sent to Grindcore Prison. The inhibitor spike planted into her mouth (shot up into the brain module to prevent transformation) malfucntioned and was the cause of her chronic short.
“I was wrong my friends, I admired Megatron because he was powerful, I failed to see how he will use that power.” - Optimus Prime
that is probably my favorite quote of Optimus he sees that despite Megatron being powerful he still used his own power for himself and his own gain something Orion or Optimus would never do.
And it means that all concepts of Optimus and Megatron being friends in their backstory have precedent in G1.
My friends and I loved watching the Transformers: War Dawn . The reasons why are because we learned how to choose our friends wisely. The Aero bots learned not to trust Megatron.
Wow a time travel episode done right. Thats really rare.
