Except he got better. While the Autobots were looking for Scrapper and Mixmaster, the Autobot Bumblebee thought that Sparkplug's truck was Mixmaster, and fired several bursts from his stingers, which did nothing to damage the truck.

Guess that encounter in the mines wasn't as bad as we thought. Sari, No One's Home
