Transformers Animated Se3Ep10 "Decepticon Airs" Discussion

[jaydisc]

I'm still watching it, but had to pause in awe of the Die Hard references!!! Anyone else pick them up?

"Come out to the coast. We'll have a good time"

Also cool to see Sunstorm and Ramjet differentiated.

I'm sure this must be one of Wyatt's favorite episodes with all the Swindle time. Does he have a Decepticon logo or something subtly different?

How the heck did Safeguard make a whirlwind in a vacuum?! (O_o)

My favourite G1 reference: "What on the 5th moon of Pz-Zazz?!" Har!!

Also was anyone able to recognise all the Transformers in the crowd during the parade? I recognised: Tracks, Armada Silverbolt (?), Warpath, Mainframe, Huffer, Flipsides and Autrooper! The parade floats were obviously Grandus...es.

Also an amusing line was, "It's a no-processor...er."

Overall I thought it was a good episode. Interesting to see Sari being further developed. Sentinel's development... um... it's kinda sporadic - keeps going forward and backward. I suppose being such a "Happy Timer" he's struggling with the role of being Magnus.

A role that looks like you have to be elected to. The rumor mill had it that Rodimus was in a better position to be the next Magnus (but I did note that in Transwarped he was an Autobot not Elite Guard) I think the power just went to his head...

Yeah, space tornado what's up with that.

Best line: "So we're picking up hitchhikers now?"

The Allspark did it

What's funnier is that they're respectively orange and white and Swindle still can't tell the difference

[Sky Shadow]

A clever Transformers-style reimagining of Con Air. I loved the lines "May I just say what an admirer I am of the noble arms-dealing profession?", "Nice folks, the Quntessons" and the conehead - non-conehead differentiation.

I think that's Rosanna rather than Flipsides - more pink than purple. I also spotted Beachcomber, Cosmos, Hot Shot, Brawn, Powerglide and... a blue Bumblebee/Wasp/Cliffjumper (Glyph?) and what looked like another yellow Cybertronian Bumblebee - maybe Hubcap or Bumper?

I liked how they explained Swindles bottomless chest storage, maybe thats what all other cartoon characters use too
