MISTAKES/GOOFS

• PLOT: In keeping with the traditions of the cartoon villains of the era, Megatron's plan to get rid of Optimus Prime - making a crocodilian out of his body instead of simply destroying it - makes little no no sense, and is also inconsistent with future story, where Prime is revealed to have had the Matrix of Leadership inside his chest all along. Megatron would never let such an important artifact slip out of his hands, yet he does.
• CONT: Optimus Prime is seen having both of his arms on Megatron's monitor screen. However this scene takes place before he managed to reattach it. When he transforms into a truck, he is again seen having his other arm.
• FAKE: After the Decepticons' metal tower emerges, the shot freezes, and so does the cloud of dust that should still be moving.
• CONT: Rumble is seen driving the subway. A moment later, he changes to Frenzy.
