Coaching a Scrimmage

[edit]

The coach appearing to switch sides during the "game" that Blitzwing interrupts may not be a continuity error. Since there were no spectators evident in the stadium, it was probably just a practice scrimmage. At least, that's how I always interpreted it, going back to when it first aired in '85!

Thrust error

[edit]

Thrust is shown during Thundercracker's "Leader?! How do you figure that?" line.

I wouldn't say it's an animation error, as you say. But of course, I haven't watched the episode. 69.19.14.20 17:59, 5 January 2012 (EST)

Pretty certain this is AKOM

[edit]

Huge update in my research on who did what, all within my user page, and I encourage anyone with good info to discuss. This is another of my preliminary findings (along with "Only Human"). I always suspected comparing techniques in other eps and shows that this is an AKOM work, but during a comment thread on YouTube for "Rebirth Part 3" I happened to notice a very unique special effect used on the shot of Optimus Prime while he says to Spike, "You... MUST COME!" (don't laugh). VFX can certainly be done by outside studios, but this is quite an un-Japanese visual, and you know which other episode has it? "Triple Takeover"! You see it when that "dumbass" Prime hits Meg and Screamer "with them lights"! JoseBxR (talk) 18:42, 6 May 2023 (EDT)

Continuity Errors snipped?

[edit]

A huge chunk of the continuity errors section was cut out several months ago, that had been present for years. Sure, a lot of it was nitpicky for a kids cartoon, but it was amusing and very much of a piece with other articles for G1 cartoon episodes we have that remain unchanged (The Girl Who Loved Powerglide, B.O.T, Thief in the Night). I hesitate because, I don’t want to just…undo an edit of this scale without double-checking. No objections in, say, a week, and I’ll get on it. Cylasbreakdown (talk) 15:42, 30 November 2024 (EST)

We've been meaning for a while now to cut down the continuity "errors" in the G1 articles for a long time, as most of them aren't actually continuity errors and just Cinema Sins style nitpicks, which is a thing we don't want. Looking at what was removed, I can't say I particularly disagree with any of the cuts. -- Cyberlink420 (talk) 02:37, 1 December 2024 (EST)
Right-o. That’s a bummer, but I understand. Cylasbreakdown (talk) 15:01, 1 December 2024 (EST)
