- —Grimlock
Notes
Continuity notes
- As Bumblebee searches for his Decepticon Hunter among the racks, a few past pieces of plot paraphernalia appear:
- A Billy the Breakfast Beaver statue from "Pilot (Part 1)"
- The rocking horse Strongarm used to illustrate Earth animal abilities from "The Buzz on Windblade"
- Windblade's worldwide network of supply stashes and captured Decepticons was established in her introductory episode, "The Buzz on Windblade", and played into the "Away Team" storyline in season 2. Looks like this will be our primary source of new villains going forward, since most of the Alechmor prisoners were carted off to Cybertron back in "Decepticon Island (Part 2)".
Transformers references
- The currency Shanix makes its first appearance in the Robots in Disguise series.
Real-world references
- The game Fixit fixates on uses sounds from Super Mario World.
- Strongarm remarks that global warming is the likely cause of the less-inhospitable temperatures in the arctic, as well as the glacier's general instability. Depressing!
- Crustacion cites walking under a ladder as a source of his bad luck, a common Earth superstition (which may be rooted in ancient Christian imagery, which raises even more questions).
