Synopsis
A re-telling of the Revenge of the Fallen film.
Differences/Notes
- "AllSpark"
- Lennox's detector is called an AllSpark detector.
- Sideswipe defeats Sideways while the latter is in robot mode.
- Optimus Prime doesn't kill Demolishor.
- The AllSpark fragment does not create any Appliancebots, and Bumblebee doesn't blow up Sam's bedroom (or anything else).
- Wheelie is called Wheels.
- Ravage transforms into a sphere, not a missile. Scalpel detatches from him after re-entry and takes Reedman's place in retrieving the AllSpark fragment. Ravage 'takes off like a rocket' after the theft, and the two of them later revive Megatron without the aid of any Constructicons.
- The protoforms aboard the Nemesis are the Fallen's long-lost army.
- The Fallen communicates to Megatron by raising thousands of metal pins from the floor of the Nemesis, changing shape to represent his face as he speaks, and speaks of assembling forces in other dimensions.
- Mikaela just threatens Wheelie with the blowtorch, without taking his eye out.
- When Mikaela throws the box containing Wheelie, it hits Alice and spins her head around a full 360.
- Scalpel doesn't send the little probe-bot into Sam's head, and is blown apart by a sniper shot before he can get any information out of it.
- The forest is extremely short, and Grindor doesn't seem to die.
- Bumblebee doesn't fight Rampage or Ravage.
- The Fallen is defeated by being thrown into a wormhole rather than having his face ripped off and punched in the chest with Optimus crushing his Spark Core.
Errors
- The Fallen's face is described as the Decepticon symbol during the opening early-humanity scene, when the faction had yet to come into being.
