Do you think bringing Optimus Prime back to life was valid?

Perceptor was so inept he couldnt save prime the first time he died... so they needed a quintesson to bring him back... but yeah if that was possible why didnt they just do that in the first place? A very valid logical query, yet as we all know the Sunbow cartoons was riddled with inconsistencies and mysteries, inaccuracies, prolly due to having a whole slew of different writers doing the stories... its like the Combaticons.. who appeared ambushing the aerialbots then all of a sudden a few episodes later they just got created by starscream?!?! chicken and the egg kinda thing...for me I just wish when he came back it was in Powermaster form that way it could be explained as they couldnt really revive him as his old self but needed the PM process to jumpstart him so to speak - a new spark ..

Well that would be because the Autobots did not know that the Quintessons existent back when Optimus died.

When he was being brought back to life Roddy said Why have we never thought of this before?

They shouldve brought everyone back to life hehehehe all 1984-86 guys that "died" taht way ratchet will be back to rrepair everyone, and not settle for inept Perceptor... but then, hmmm the funeral barge they were on got shot to a star ah well so much for that idea....

It was a logical justification for the fact that Hot Rod (rather than Rodimus Prime) had a Targetmaster toy in Series Four.

Optimus Prime's spaceship was also supposedly shot into a star, but he was rescued - maybe Ironhide et all were too!

"It was an accident!"

Or how the Decepticons built the Constructicons on Earth episode 16, but then in episode 46 the Constructicons existed on Cybertron who were friends with Omega Supreme until Megatron reprogrammed them as Decepticons. Then in episode 69 Rodimus Prime gazes into the past through the Matrix and witnesses the Constructicons creating Megatron!

And Ironhide was rebuilt as Power Master Ironhide... but upon seeing what he had become, Ironhide threw himself into the nearest sun.

That would be completely understandable.
