    Ghost in the Machine | Transformers: Generation 1 | Season 3 | E17 | Hasbro Pulse
    Although he commandeers Scourge's body, Starscream decides to cut a deal with the head of Unicron to get his old body back. The Chaos Bringer agrees to grant Starscream' request, but in exchange for his new body, he must perform 3 labors. The sly Decepticon, wanting to get his body back, agrees to the terms, and discovers Unicron's motives.

    I’ve seen a lot of people say Starscream died again at the end of this episode, but Galvatron said that Trypticon had neutralized their weapons, so my theory is that they couldn’t do much damage to Starcream, and that to this day, he still tumbles out of control in space, Either that, or he found some planet we don’t know of to take over.

    • @michaelweech6432
      @michaelweech6432 Před rokem +2

      Possibly Galvatron saying ‘Trypticon had neutralised their weapons’ (‘their’ meaning Galvatron, Cyclonus and the Predacons’ weapons) was him merely making excuses that he didn’t care about ‘Unicron wanting Cybertron for his body’ (then again, Galvatron not caring could have been his insanity getting the better of him, which always happened, when, had Galvatron’s insanity been curable, of course he’d have cared, just like when he was his old self - Megatron, until the movie). The movie (Galvatron’s first appearance) is even the only time he ever was fully sane (him gaining his insanity, post-movie, after the length he spent, in the lava, on Thrull, after the fight he lost, in the movie, to Hot Rod, when he became Rodimus Prime, is how and why he went back to having Frank Welker as his voice actor, albeit with a completely different vocal style, to his Megatron voice).
      I’m aware Galvatron was quite sane in ‘The Ultimate Weapon’ (not counting his ‘bluff’); when the hate plague was cured, at the end of part 2, of the last season 3 (post-movie) episode (as well as the penultimate episode of the 80s G1 Transformers cartoon in the States) ‘The Return of Optimus Prime’, it additionally cured his insanity, but, by the three part episode ‘Headmasters’ (aka ‘The Rebirth’) [the only season 4, post-movie, episode, and, most of all, the last 80s G1 Transformers episode - at least in the States], his insanity quickly came back. I’ve seen the season 3 (post-movie) episode ‘Webworld’, meaning I’m aware that Galvatron’s insanity was just incurable.

      Megatron did it too. He would threaten to destroy anyone that failed him but in the end he would give them a chance to redeem themselves in some way. The bad guys always rule through fear and intimidation. If they are not respected for being the strongest and most powerful they lose credibility as a leader because the decepticons believe in might = right. If you are more powerful than the guy you take orders from then you can challenge them to a fight and prove you are the better leader by demonstrating that you can beat them up. Only the strong should survive and the weak are given subordinate jobs. Since Megatron is both intelligent as well as powerful nobody dares to stand up to him. The fusion cannon is very powerful plus he is cunning enough to have soundwave act as his personal spy to listen in on his men for evidence of conspiracy. (it's not just physical intimidation but the idea that soundwave is always there breathing down the necks of everyone to dob them in)

Without him megatron probably couldn't keep tabs on his decepticons to ensure they were not plotting to assassinate him while his back was turned. And he is also hated due to not having any plan of his own ie if megatron falls he isn't going to show much respect for a weak leader who no longer intimidates the other decepticons. Soundwave is essentially viewed by everyone else (other than his own cassette minions) as a teacher's pet with no original idea of his own. People that are "yes men" in businesses are always sucking up to the boss for brownie points and it makes sense why he would be hated (nobody trusts him to be friends) and respected (the high status of being close to megatron and trusted) at the same time.

    This is one of the best ever episodes in terms of dialogue. Some of Starscream's lines in particular are outrageously good.
    "Give me that blaster!"
    "No, get one of your own!"
    "I was getting cold without a body."
    "This is where I bail out, Astrotrain... happy landings!" (Clearly revelling in revenge for the end of 'Starscream's Brigade'.)
    "You know, for the strong silent type, you sure talk too much."
    "I'm just borrowing him for a little while. Don't worry about a thing."
    "STARSCREAM! YOU ARE A DEAD MECHANISM!"
    "Of course I'm dead, Galvatron, but not for much longer..."
    You can also tell that Chris Latta and Frank Welker are absolutely loving the interplay in that scene. A revisit to the first two seasons for them.
    It's just such a shame that the episode is spoiled by an incredibly forced and contrived collective belly-laugh from the Autobots at the end. If there's one thing that really dates a series to the 1980s more than any other, it's belly-laughs from the good guys as an ending. Not as awful for it as MASK perhaps, but Transformers did more than its share of them.

It's like titles sequences from drama series from the 70s where the cast members have to smile at the camera when their credit is on the screen, or gameshows where all the contestants have to wave goodbye to the audience as the closing credits start to roll, which was still happening frequently as late as the 1990s. It makes viewers cringe today.
      I was always a bit lukewarm about Thundercats anyway, but the end-on-a-laugh feature was a real turn-off, yes. The worst for it though was definitely MASK. I think only about two episodes from its first season didn't end on a forced laugh.

    So for the record.
    Unicron is now concius and aware of everything thanks to statscream reactivatiing him, and he has eyes now.
    So I feel he could have still been a threat is some way, not sure how, but he could have been.
    And Starscream is lost to the stars.

    Seems to me Starscream should have either asked for a better body or stayed as a ghost. He seemed more powerful then...
