			==Featured characters list==

			I've gone through the episode again and reordered the list on the basis that it's the first appearance of any kind that counts: Bluestreak is alongside Trailbreaker and Ratchet manning the controls at the front of the Autobot spaceship at launch; two Reflectors are visible when the Decepticon spaceship is about to take off; Mirage appears and actually gets a line of dialogue when the two asteroids appear ("There's another one!"); Brawn, Gears and Windcharger are all present in the shot just after the asteroids collide; Sunstreaker, Hound and Huffer are all easily identifiable among the robotic wrecks in the big panning scene just before Teletraan I wakes up; Joe and Frank show up on screen before Ravage; Sparkplug appears before Spike.
			I've also tweaked the note at the animation and technical errors section identifying Hauler among the wrecked Transformers; it seems possible, but not as certain as the identification of Sunstreaker et al.[[User:Tribimat\|Tribimat]] ([[User talk:Tribimat\|talk]]) 19:08, 6 November 2024 (EST)

			==Japanese Version==

			Hi everybody, I'm a late coming exile from the world of the for-profit-special-interest-wiki world (that shall remain nameless, but rhymes with "and dumb" if you squint a little). Anyway, I have been sucked back into the magical world of Transformers recently and I came across something that's not mentioned on the page. I'm so used to just hopping in and editing things on the fly, but as a new user I figured I'd make my presence known and make sure I'm doing it right. I am currently in the process of trying to translate the Japanese version of the original series. Between a combination of my meager Japanese skills (I'm still learning and have a long way to go), the stories not navigating far from the English plots, and machine translation I'm doing a decent job. Maybe something I'd put out after I have someone more fluent take a look at it, but anyway, not the point of my post... Okay, so I was watching the Japanese version of MTMTE Part 1 while doing timing, and you know that scene where the Decepticons are boarding the Ark and they just looped the boarding scene with Prime issuing orders and then Megatron ordering an attack? Well in the Japanese version, only Convoy is talking through that repeated shot. He's basically just ordering his troops to prepare for battle and then to attack.

			I thought it'd be interesting to mention but I didn't want to go in an cold editing without saying hello and explain my intentions and get a clear idea of how things are done around here (Each Wiki being an authority onto their own, and all that). I mean the general rules are probably all the same and I swear I'll comb through the really dry community standards at some point, but NGL just dropping in an editing a major page moments after signing up is always sus, so y'know I tempered my compulsion and decided to ask first.

			Anyway, not sure how actively I am going to be a contributor, maybe just pop in an add a few things here or there, but I hope to at least provide some interesting or useful information every now and again.
			Cheers!

	: "Transformers references," for MTMTEp1-3, I would think, would be non-existent.
