    Storyline

    Did you know

    • Trivia
      This is the second and last time that Autobot Skids shows up in the series (the first time is in Quest for Survival (1985)).
    • Goofs
      Blitzwing destroys the Autobots Prowl, Skids, Bluestreak and Tracks. Yet later they are shown with less or no damage at all, and can be easily repaired. It should be mentioned that later it will be shown that even smaller laser shots can be fatal to Autobots, but here, they survive even being blown to pieces.

      • Starscream: I'm stupid! I'm stupid!
