Trivia
- There is a lot of violence in this episode, much more than usual. Megatron, Starscream and Airachnid recieve open wounds, while the Insecticon is decapitated and Breakdown is, well, scattered.
- This episode may mark the first death of a recurring character in the series.
- Starscream can fire his missiles without the need for a T-Cog. Most likely due to the fact they aren't concealed under panels like his blasters.
