Other notes
- This is one of the most disjointed episodes of the series, with lots of re-edited and repeated footage to cover the cut-down city fight between Megatron and Team Bullet Train.

Miscellaneous trivia
- Due to the 9/11 terrorist attacks, the completed English dub of this episode was held back and re-edited for content. The original opening scene of the episode, featuring scenes of city destruction, was removed and replaced with animation of Megatron's attack on New York from first episode, and Tifanie Christun's lines for Dorie Dutton were re-recorded by Sandy Fox, sans a reference to "robo-terrorism of the mid-1980s." The episode did not air until the following month, well into the multiple-episodes-per-week run of the series. It has never been broadcast in it's original dubbed form, and the redubbed episode is the only version included on the R2 DVD set.
