Notes
Technical/Animation Glitches
- When the Ark is first seen, it's colored silver instead of orange.
- When the Autobots and Spike board Skyfire, Bumblebee and Spike remain visible for a split second as the door closes behind them, not in front of them as one would expect. They inexplicably disappear in the very next shot, when Skyfire takes off.
- When the Decepticons and Insecticons flee from the field, Thundercracker in jet mode is colored in Skyfire's white-and-red palette.
Continuity Errors
- If the Insecticons had landed four million years before the crash of the Ark, and have presumably been active throughout all previous episodes, how come neither the Autobots nor the Decepticons had never learned of their existence until this episode, and when they did learn, they did it simultaneously? It's entirely possible to retcon this by claiming that the Insecticons were protoforms who had not come online, and were activated by the pod as a method of preserving them. However, the protoform concept hadn't been introduced yet, so...
- How does Skyfire manage to hide in the bushes with the other, short Autobots? He's about four Bumblebees tall!
- Why do the Decepticons and the Insecticons not know each other if they were all on board the Nemesis? Even if you assume that there were lots of Decepticons on board and Megatron didn’t know them all personally (which in itself is doubtful) the Insecticons must surely know who Megatron is!
