This show makes a hell of a lot more sense after you watch the original series. The bad guys projected an image of Unicron.
Oh, and there's an episode of Starscream! Apparently his spark can die, so he takes possesion of the team idiot and starts raising hell again. I love that spunky psycho! So persistant.
Oh, and Doc, that season three episode you mentioned...are you talking about the one where he gets his body back? Because it was good, but I kind of didn't like the ending. I mean, that's it. His ass is apparently floating somewhere in space. I kind of think he deserved better than that.
But I loved the part when he was suppose to attach Unicron's head to Cybertron.
"I need a body first!"
"Um...okay." [Gives Starscream a body.] "Now, plug the two wires together like a good slave."
[Throws the wires on the ground.] "Do it yourself!"
What. A. Prick.
"You're either lying or stupid." "I'm stupid! I'm stupid!" Megatron and Starscream
