About Megatron sacrificing himself while Unicron is destroyed... Unicron is actually deactivating during that time. When Optimus and Megatron have their last dance to end the war, Unicron reactivated from negative energy made from their fight. Megatron sacrificed himself to ensure that Unicron doesn't have negative energy to feed off from.

[@ToaKoran]

FINALLY, SOMEONE that actually gives this show some damn praise! Primus, you wouldn't believe how often I've always heard people just talk smack about this show every time it's brought up, it's just gotten so tiring. This show isn't perfect, nothing is, and I can admit to its' faults, but it's nowhere near the worst Transformers had to offer. Obviously I have nostalgia for this show, if was my first introduction to Transformers, but it was fantastic in so many ways, and I'll always love Optimus, Starscream, and Megatron in this iteration the most, because Megatron, andn Starscream especially are characters I've either laughed at, or just hated depending on iteration, but in this series I RESPECTED them. That's not even mentioning Optimus really showed his own flaws, fighting with his own internal conflicts on what to do, and not to do, trying to be better than the decepticons despite the final battle really showing just how much of his own slight bloodthirst in combat he had been holding back. He enjoyed that final battle, and hated it, and the fact he had any enjoyment all at the same time, all topped off by losing Megatron, someone he would have loved nothing more than to have been allies with under the right cause. I love Armada, it's not perfect, but it's still fantastic.

The saddest part is Starscream’s attack didn’t even reach Unicron. I doubt it would have made much of a difference if it did.

Yeah that was always a tragic moment that his blast didn't even reach Unicron. Though it was that one shot from Starscream that united all the Transformers against Unicron and led to his defeat. So in a way that one shot was what took down Unicron.

I read on tfwiki that the German dub skipped a a large portion of episodes during broadcast on RTL II. They jumped straight from episode 7 **Carnival** to episode 40 **Remorse**. Reason? RTL II stated that Hasbro Germany insisted on having the entire series aired in just two months to better promote the toyline. So characters like Scavenger, Some Screen, Thrust, Wheeljack etc. just apperead out of nowhere. Luckily the series was released completely on DVD

[@chsparkle]

Transformers Armada was the first Transformers show I ever saw when young and I loved it, definitely got nostalgia for it. Feels like for several characters, they really did something different, this Wheeljack is nothing like his other counterparts for instance. One of my favourite characters is Megatron, great voice and as you said, got depth for him. Wheeljack becomes a Con in this version because Megatron found and saved him from burning to death after becoming trapped in a battle despite being a bot. And this Megatron loves fighting Optimus to the point he gets depressed when he dies and is delighted when he is revived. I also liked the main kid trio, the other two not so much. And the friendship Starscream forms with them is good, he's also different to other Starscream, he wants Megatron's respect but then Megatron betrays him, giving Starscream an actaul reason to hate him.

[@ScampiTheSighted]

This show was such a mixed bag. Mixed bags can still contain greatness!

[@SwedishSeacon]

This show alongside Energon and Cybertron is like a holy grail to me. Part of my childhood and the reason I was brought into Transformers in general. I can admit the sequel to Armada, Transformers: Energon, isn't the best out there due to the weird CGI animation, the bad translation it had sometimes, mix ups with Downshift and Cliffjumper's names, character development that lead to character downvelopment (that I like to call it) for characters like Scorponok, Demolishor and Inferno but I'll admit the show had its moments where it did stand out and wasn't too afraid to go dark with characters like Shockblast, a dangerous Decepticon that is a murder machine on two legs, Inferno getting tortured by Megatron and tries to make him change side unwillingly. And that it also were sometimes hand drawn like the battle with Mega Galvatron against Mega Optimus Supreme or...Inferno getting tortured. Cybertron on the other hand has a CGI that look more superior. It may seem a bit dodgy at first but comparing it against Energon's CGI, the characters still look like toys but they got more movement than they did in Energon and it looks a lot more cleaner. Plus that show also allowed Starscream to have his time in the spotlight for finally overthrowing Megatron completely. Not like in G1 where he did manage to do it but it only lasted for a few seconds.

[@joaolucasnascimentoleite2831]

yeah youre right. the energon cartoon had a bad animation but the concept they have was interesting . the dreamwave comics version of energon was great , i wished it hadn't been cancelled

[@pumpkinspicedproductions7515]

i kind of feel like Energon threw what armada made out of the window, since Starscream is back to life, and Megatron is back. The plot is interesting and had some potential. I feel like the show would have been way better if they had just taken more time on it and continued from what armada established.

[@Jackson-hp7rt]

Completely seconded. As someone who grew up with Energon, I'll admit that it is definitely the weakest of the trilogy. Though I thought some of the story was actually pretty enjoyable...and some scenes that were DRAWN were actually really good, as they matched the animation quality in Armada's final episode. Most of the toys for both Armada and Energon were pretty poor, unfortunately.

[@i_am_tomatosoup]

@@joaolucasnascimentoleite2831 Ooh yeah, those comics were so cool, and surprisingly dark sometimes. I remember one issue where Megatron lead an army of terrorcons to steal a mountain's worth of Energon and utterly wiped the floor with the Autobots / Omnicons defending it.

Micron Legend is seriously worth a watch, going beyond the original. Easily top 3 Transformers series if we're including that one (other two being Prime and Beast Wars for me).

Wheeljack, Hot Shot, and Sideways were all stellar, its the one time in a Transformers series you feel like the sides of the war are barely managing to keep themselves from falling apart as teams.

My favourite transformers series

[@kidprime6863]

I liked how in this show that Optimus Prime and Megatron are like two sides of the same coin. That's something you don't with these two very often. These days it's just sibling rivalry. The idea of little robots combining with bigger robots and granting them gadgets and/or power boosts was an interesting concept. Starscream in this was like a tribute to BW Dinobot. An honorable warrior and not a treacherous backstabbing coward although he still desires leadership. Now I will say I didn't like the constant animation errors, Mini-Cons getting their names mixed up, Hot Shot never getting the Star Saber back, Overload coming out of nowhere, rushed arcs and Sideways joining the Decepticons too soon. Sure, the show's not perfect but that doesn't necessarily mean it sucks. Plus the animation can be good at times.
