Notes
[edit]- Beachcomber was originally intended to debut in a scene with Shockwave during "TransWarped", in which he died horribly, turning gray and crumbling into dust.[2] The scene was recorded, with Beachcomber being voiced by Tom Kenny, who would provide a surfer type of voice. It was cut from the show for reasons unknown (other than being cut for time), allowing Beachcomber to make a background appearance in the later episode "Decepticon Air". Had the fourth season of Animated been produced, its season premiere "The Trial of Megatron" would have featured a scene of Beachcomber getting ambushed and brutally killed by Blackout instead. Marty Isenberg claimed that had Beachcomber somehow survived season four as well, they would have found a way to kill him in a theoretical fifth season. Poor hippie can't catch a break.
- Derrick J. Wyatt mourns the loss of Beachcomber's planned death scene, having expressed his lack of fondness for Beachcomber on several occasions.[3] Jim Sorenson once said he was not alone in this hatred.[4] However, Wyatt's dislike of Beachcomber ended up waning after a while.[5]
