Talk:An Explosive Situation

Just to clarify... was this episode ever reran in the United States after 9/11? I don't remember it being, for obvious reasons, but it could've been thrown back into one of the last rerun cycles which I didn't follow.--Speedbreaker 01:40, 11 March 2007 (UTC)

I want to say it got new dubbing to make it superfuel not a bomb or something... Zobovor probably knows. (I'm setting up shells of the first 7 episodes of the series, or one disk of the DVD.) -Derik 01:47, 11 March 2007 (UTC)

I'm pretty sure I saw a redub at some point. It was only once, though, and so long ago. Sorry I can't give more details. -Animus 00:06, 03 December 2007

While on the note of tastelessness, anyone else notice that this episode is about nuclear bombs exploding over major cities in Japan? 64.189.19.132 18:15, 12 October 2010 (EDT)

Well it was initially written by Japanese for a Japanese audience so if they didn't mind, I don't see why we should get our boxer shorts in a knot. --Detour 18:31, 12 October 2010 (EDT)

Is the bomb specified as nuclear in Car Robots? --abates 18:48, 12 October 2010 (EDT)

A very powerful bomb that could do major damage to Tokyo, IIRC. --Lonegamer78 18:53, 12 October 2010 (EDT)

Well if the nuclear thing is a dub addition... it still doesn't matter, seeing how the dub takes place in the fictional, quite likely American town of "Metro City". --Detour 19:57, 12 October 2010 (EDT)

It's not referred to as nuclear in RID. S'why I was wondering where the anon got "nuclear" from. I guess if it's powerful enough to cause major damage to the city, it's likely nuclear. --abates 20:02, 12 October 2010 (EDT)

I'm wondering the "nuke" came from as well. I've read of explosions exceeding the ones used during WW2 in terms of sheer explosive force, even if they weren't bombs. --Lonegamer78 20:11, 12 October 2010 (EDT)

Aforementioned anon here. Do you think a conventional bomb would make an explosion that big? I mean, bright enough to LIGHT UP THE SKY FROM THE STRATOSPHERE?! Only nukes have that kind of explosive power. 64.189.19.132 02:55, 13 October 2010 (EDT)

Do you think a regular truck would turn into a giant alien robot? You have to have some suspension of disbelief with Transformers. -- Semysane 03:37, 13 October 2010 (EDT)

Yeah, I remember seeing the "ghost Skybite" scene when i watched it when i was little (around 2001 or 2002). Mostly remember it because it confused the heck out of me lol. I'd really like to figure out when or where it was run in this form. Combaticons4ever (talk) 21:22, 21 March 2017 (EDT)

Also, we need a picture of X-brawn swinging from the buildings with the subtext "Spider-Brawn, Spider-Brawn..." 64.189.19.132 02:55, 13 October 2010 (EDT)
