Awesome stuff.
Not too big on the Angry Archer mind, he's almost like a evil version of the Green Arrow and Robin Hood. He may even grow on me.
Prowl having a Zen garden in the base is cool.

Wasn't the actual Green Arrow in the series preview clips? Or was that just a trick? I really do not like the Angry Archer. I'd have preferred the Mechanic.
I really enjoyed the episode though. Loved the fact we're getting a lot more character development this time around we well as some genuinely funny moments. In a lot of ways I'm reminded of Beast Wars.
Bumblebee using his wheels to go street-luge style was a nice touch. Looking forward to a lot more of these.

Yeah 4 episodes in and so far no huge Autobot vs Decepticon battles, so hopefully when they do happen it will be that much more entertaining/significant.
Prowls annoyance with the other Autobots seems more understandable than the movie.
Liked Megatrons role in it, sort of reminded me of unicron as he plotted and watched from afar before attacking Cybertron.

Looking back, Angry Archer is more or less a cross between the Green Arrow and the Penguin.

I was disappointed Angry Archer was only in the first couple of minutes. He must return!
Generally enjoyable stuff. Bumblebee got on my tits though.

I think that was the idea for Bumblebee's activities this ep, Doc.
The Angry Archer is basically Aaron Archer from Hasbro with a bionic hand and a trimmer figure. He may or may not turn up again, though he is only the tip of the 'bonkers supervillain' iceberg, including one whose evil power is, and I quote Mr. Archer himself here, "looking really good in a pimp hat".
Also, Starscream is buggered.

Did anyone else think the little pocket-bot looked like Megatron's temporary body in Beast Machines? Forgot to say this earlier.

It did indeed look a bit like the Diagnostic Drone.

I wondered if Angry Archer was a nod to Mr Archer, I hope he returns to along with a host of similar oddballs.
Fuming Furman? Simon Says?
Fig biscuit.
Erm, yes well.

They must have known about my reaction to the Episode 5 synopsis, and decided to give me Dinobots. It's the only conclusion i can draw from this.

If things are still slow with the bot vs con action I can't blame the jump forward. It's a blessing in disguise...

Hmmm. I do rather prefer it when episodes are shown in the order they are made to be shown in. Jumping an episode ahead makes no sense to me.

I know! But I just can't wrap my head round going from episode 4 to 6 and airing 5 later. Does not compute. Does not compute. Error. Error. Errrrrrrrrrror. Steralise. Steralise. Sterrralise.
I am Nomad. I am Nomad. Nomad. Nomad.

I'd like stuff to be in order myself but I'll make an exception in this case.
I hope the build-up to any Bots VS Cons battles isn't anymore prolonged.
