About details in tfone:
- the High Guard all being flight alt modes is an allusion to G1, but I like to think In-universe it's bc it's the most practical army to have. During the war, they fight the Quintessons on the surface, which is constantly changing — it'd be very dangerous for a Ground type but a flight alt mode can go anywhere. It's probably also why Soundwave and Shockwave has flight alt modes.
- Megatron was crying after his fight witb Optimus.
- Megatron sheathed his weapons and didn't use any of them agains Bee and Elita — instead opting to fight them hand-to-hand. It's interesting because when he fights Optimus he uses every firepower he could.
- Soundwave transforms via a front flip, Shockwave through a cannonball jump, while Starscream twists.
- Optimus didn't use any of his own offensive power against the SSS — instead using friendly fire. However, despite the SSS's firepower not exactly being weak, none of the attacks hurt the other or themselves — it seems another thing on what makes the SSS dangerous is that they're very durable.
- the High Guard are all bigger than the average mech. Cogged Orion w no Matrix is presumably, the height of an average mech, Cogged D-16 is still slightly bigger - but even then, Starscream is STILL taller.
- Skyfire is mentioned in the race and you can see him in the tunnel scene — his design looks like it uses the default Jet mode like Darkwing instead of his default shuttle design.
- Bee ignored D-16 and Orion at first despite them making a loud commotion, and after angrily rambling at them then saying "You're real!" implies Bee gets hallucinations a lot.
- Starscream's voice becomes much calmer when he recounts the High Guard's experience
OH HELL YEAH INTERESTING STUFF THANK YOU
#I knew about the Megatron crying one!😊 his tears even match his 86' movie coolant marks counterpart#I think the only instance where Optimus doesnt use hands-to-hands or friendly fire against the SSS#is when he grazes Soundwave's back with his axe during his flip when Soundwave first entered the fight before sliding in#also funny that the order they entered the fight was Soundwave->Shockwave->Starscream#definitely not what was intended but its often how the chain of loyalty toward Megs go#anyway thanks again! i wanna rewatch the movie one more time now.#tagging later#anon
