	He ''does'' actually hit it, just not the big one. He has ''two'' buttons, as far as I can tell, a big one and a small one to the lower left. He pushes the small one when talking in this episode, not the big one. Now, this may just be on the Shout! Factory release, which is all I have, so I'm not changing the article yet. If someone could check the originals, if that's even possible, we can determine for sure.		He ''does'' actually hit it, just not the big one.

	:"スチールシティ" reads "su-chii-ru-shi-ti", or "Steel City". There is no room for preference or adjustment. Katakana doesn't work that way. It's rendering the English words "steel" and "city" into the Japanese sound structure. If it had used words like 鋼 ("hagane", Japanese for "steel") or 都会 ("tokai", Japanese for "city") there might be a case. But even then, we'd include the Japanese title even if it directly translated into "City of Steel" so as to make the Japanese spelling of the title and it's roomaji equivalent available. We're informative like that. --[[User:DrSpengler\|DrSpengler]] 01:22, 26 June 2009 (EDT)		:"スチールシティ" reads "su-chii-ru-shi-ti", or "Steel City". There is no room for preference or adjustment.

			I couldn't find these previously listed errors:

			* At one point, Megatron's helmet appears in white rather than grey, giving the impression that he is wearing a white wig. Earlier in the episode, his face and helmet are both coloured in the same shade of dark grey.

			* The Empire State Building is depicted as ''far'' too small in relation to the Transformers in several scenes.

			If they're gonna go back in, the scenes need to be specified a lot more clearly. (that goes for a lot eps, actually. There's far too many "In one scene" errors in our G1 eps.) -- [[User:Repowers\|Repowers]] 20:23, 5 September 2009 (EDT)
