    The Sydney Opera House, then the battle underwater.

    I could be wrong, but right near the very end was there a bit on an air battle (Megatron I think) with Centrepoint Tower in the background, or was it another cities skyline?

    Might not match up to anything in the series, but that was a nice anime intro.

    I love this song... I absolutely love Kageyama Hironobu and Mizuki Ichiro's work (and I also enjoyed Kitadani Hiroshi's opening for Super Link, but I'm not familiar with his work outside of Transformers).

    For those who may not know, Kageyama Hironobu also performed the opening and ending themes for The Headmasters:

    And Dragonball Z fans would know that he also did a lot of themes for DBZ such as:
    Cha La Head Cha La
    We Gotta Power

    Most of you would know that Mizuki Ichiro did the themes for Transformers Zone:

    Gatchaman fans would know that he also did the theme for Science Ninja Team Gatchaman (aka Battle of the Planets/Eagle Riders/G-Force):

    As well as the 1995 OVA remix:

    It was crazy, typical of giant robot anime intros. Very impressed. They had female Starscream in it too, so I'm praying she finally gets a toy made by Takara down the track. That's all I want, the other unmade characters I could care less!
