Notes
Continuity notes
- The episode begins with a clip of Megatron's seeming execution of Starscream in "Bad Moon Rising", before showing what happened to him after the Nemesis departed.
Transformers references
- Scraplets are a race that first appeared in the Marvel comic, though they would remain an obscure one-off menace until they made their on-screen debut years later, in the Transformers: Prime episode "Scrapheap." Cyberverse's Scraplets are physically based on their Prime counterparts—vaguely insectoid creatures with massive, toothy mouths. These Scraplets, however, are far less deadly than their Prime counterparts, however; in their prior appearances, they were ravenous, piranha-like creatures, who quite literally ate their victims alive, while these Scraplets only feed only on their victim's energon, leaving them paralyzed but otherwise unharmed.
Real-world references
- Starscream tells Acid Storm that "Time is the fire in which we burn;" this is a line from the poem "Calmly We Walk Through This April's Day" by Delmore Schwartz. The line was also famously used by Tolian Soran in Star Trek: Generations.
Trivia
Animation and technical errors
- Starscream uses an excavator as armor, but the actual toy depiction is a bulldozer.
