    my headcannon is that Waspintor's spark is just as "immortal" as that of Starscream's which is why he was always able to survive and pull himself back together again as well as why Waspinator was possessed by Starscream.

    I'm always fascinated by the behind-the-scenes backstory for Waspinator, basically being thrown into the show by Hasbro's request, and the series' crew decided to slag him in every way possible. Pretty amazing how that made this little bugger one of the most beloved characters in "Beast Wars."
    The "Animated" incarnation is also a very creative take on the character, and his monstrous design was especially awesome. Hearing more about 'his plans' is one of the many reasons I wish TFA got a fourth season.
    Oh, and for a special Waspinator line: *'Mmh, mmh, mmh. Two-head throw Megatron in lava pit. Megatron angry, think Two-head traitor. Want to SLAAAG Two-head. Waspinator down with that! Defense, take a rest.'*

    The Thrust head swap is an homage to the ending of "The Fly" (the 1958 original).
    Blackarachnia literally sends Wasp through a Brundel telepod to transform him into Waspinator. Or, BrundelWasp, if you will. This is a direct reference to the BrundelFly/Space Bug at the end of David Cronenberg's 1986 remake of "The Fly".

    I kind of wish when Waspinator was lamenting his lot in life at around 1:19, that he said "Waspinator miss Terrorsaur" as a nod to their old relationship, since I remember in Fallen Comrades, Terrorsaur blew up a giant boulder that was crushing Waspinator and then dragged him all the way back to the Predacon base. About the only guy who would do that for him.

    He said in the beast machines episode where he was reintroduced that his trip back to cybertron "took forever" so the way I see it he actually flew back from earth after somehow escaping orbit . So he would have actually been in flight during the countless millions of years that involved the show, which would work out i believe considering how far away cybertron is.

    I can't confirm it, but I remember hearing once that the reason Waspinator can survive being blown up so often is because his Spark is located in his skull where his (Transformers equivalent of) brain should be. So as long as his head remains intact, as it always was, he can pull himself back together.
