	*Meltdown is the only human villain to inflict grievous, often spark-threatening injury to any of the main cast, fighting them on fairly equal terms. He nearly melted off Bulkhead's arm and almost off-lined Bumblebee in "[[Total Meltdown]]", tormented the Dinobots into submission while critically injuring Bulkhead in "[[Survival of the Fittest]]", would have turned Blackarachnia into a mutant and might have killed Optimus if the genetic modifier hadn't liquified him in "[[Black Friday (episode)\|Black Friday]]". And he still gets owned by [[Carmine Fanzone\|a human]].		*Meltdown is the only human villain to inflict grievous, often spark-threatening injury to any of the main cast, fighting them on fairly equal terms.

	Prometheus Black's biotechnology business was highly successful because it played off the citizens of [[Detroit\|Detroit's]] fear of ~~<strike>illegal immigrants</strike>~~ robots stealing their jobs. Much of his money was made on makeovers of some of the city's less physically gifted individuals, but he finally staged a promotion aimed at getting himself a contract with the city's police force. Pitting the seemingly frail old man Colossus Rhodes against [[Bumblebee (Animated)\|Bumblebee]], he hoped to win the support of [[Carmine Fanzone\|Captain Fanzone]] by showcasing the strength-inducing powers of his nano-technological steroids. Unfortunately, Rhodes proceeded to rampage out of control in the parking lot, convincing Fanzone to recommend canceling all of Black's contracts with the city, leaving Black financially ruined.
