==Notes==
===Continuity notes===
*Soundwave's goal this whole Season has been to summon Megatron to Earth. He needed the nuclear rods to power his beacon generator. We now know that Steeljaw's "benefactors" have similar interests. Just as Megatron did to the [[Weaponizer]] Mini-Cons, they genetically modified the "Activators" and sent them to free Soundwave by stealing the Decepticon Hunters, their combined powers able to create a weapon that can break through from the Shadowzone to Earth.

===Real-world references===

===Errors===
*Optimus fires missiles at the Beacon which contains nuclear rods in it. This should've lead to nuclear radiation leftovers, making the place uninhabitable. 

===Trivia===
*Soundwave claimed his beacon was built from "wreckage" from the Shadowzone. Seeing as it is an non-corporeal dimension and there was only one other inhabitant, could this be the fate of [[Skyquake (Prime)|Skyquake]]?
*When they were returned to the Shadowzone in "[[Portals]]", Soundwave and Laserbeak were still in the Prime bodies. How they were able to reformat to their new bodies is left unexplained. Perhaps the "benefactors" provided them what they needed?
