The Intergalactic Highway

Sorry if there has been a topic like this before, but I was wondering what everyone's favorite minor moment was. I mean' sure, you have your Dinobot sacrifice in Code of Hero and Optimus/Megatron fight in Nemisis and other big moments like that, but what about the little snippits that barely get mentioned, even though they can be just as awesome as the big moments?

Here's an example of three minor moments that I felt were quite awesome:

1. When Rattrap accidentally on purpose hit Dinobot in the nuts with a lead pipe in 'Victory'. That was one of the funniest moments in the series.

2. When Airrazor broke the sound barrier in 'Call of The Wild'.

3. When, in the episode 'Transmutate', Rampage saw Transmutate for the first time.
Rampage: "Magnificent."
Seriously, just the way he said it made me think "Ok, if that thing is a chick, then Rampage/Transmutate is my new OTP." (By the way, Rampage/Transmutate is still one of my favorite ships of all time.)

So what were your favorite minor moments?

Perhaps not a "minor" moment, at least in the eyes of his fans who follow his character development.

But when Dinbot, gave a slight smirk that turned into a half smile too OP. A very minor action, took a few hours to animate, but gave a thousand years of life to his character at one simple gesture.

Oh, one more!

The first time we see Optimus with his face shield up. Giving full connections to yester year versions of the character. (or to be more exact, name sakes).

When Rattrap jumps the gorge in the TM2 mode whilst holding Sentinel on his back. Just loved the view from his optics and the sound of his V8 engine as it went through the gearshifts. Nothing like a big block Rat

That makes me remember this one moment in this Episode.

Dinobot:Alas poor Tarantuals,I knew him Cheetor.These are the legs that stalked many victims.To think it came to this.
Cheetor:Ah do you need a hug.

And DB had that don't piss me off look...like always.

One thing about that RT moment.I'm surprised he didn't feel that...either that or he held it in really well.Then,there was that one time where he was hit on that area through a flying missle in Coming of The Fuzors II.

In "Tangled Web". when Rattrap is in vehicle mode and transforms mid leap, fires a few shots and hits the ground. His sheer awesomeness gives me shivers.

Dinobot sure felt it that time! Those two groin shots still make me laugh, though Rattrap kicking Waspinator in the nuts was also quite funny. Ok, moving on...

Yeah, gutter-talk aside, it's things like Dinobot's smile in "Guerilla Warfare," or when you have a character with conflict upon their face that really makes my day and makes me remember things. For example, when a feral Cheetor was pausing from harming those who he knew in the two-parter Feral Scream, or when Optimus was working something over in his head and you saw his face go all still. But there were other parts, such as when Rhinox was making that machine to try to extract Primal from the alien probe early in Season One and is muttering to himself about having to be a miracle-worker.

one thing that alway samkes me laugh:

'There he is,my little guy...There he is....my little guy!Isn't he cute?'

Rattrap:That's not what I want to hear.

My favorite moments are when:

-when we get a huge closeup of Depth Charge's face and suddenly his optics turn on and he says "He's HERE..." That always sends shivers up my spine.

-when Tarantulas was smooshed against a wall when he tried to tackle Rattrap.

-when Tarantulas and Waspinator started arguing and made Terrorsaur lose his marbles. XD

-Cheetor: "No one bugs out on this cat!" (raises tail spear, about to scrap Waspinator)
(autogun pops up and shoots him)
Cheetor: Ow! (is covered in soot and blinks for a second)
Waspinator: *raspberry* Phhhttttt! Thehehe! *flies away*

-when Terrorsaur got all shifty when evilRhinox blabber mouthed his ploy in Dark Designs: Terry pulled at an invisible collar and cleared his throat, (Skorpanok: What's he talking about?) Terry: *quickly* Don't listen to him! (shakes finger and head), and finally when Skorpanok headbutted him. XD

-when Skorpanok rolled rightside up and whapped his head with a claw to expel the dizziness, then says "Why?" with a little bounce, after Blackarachnia grabbed him out of the way saying "Hold it, shellhead!"

-Tarantulas and Blackarachnia's traded 'lunatic' and 'witch' behind eachothers backs. XD

-when Rampage said "Magnificent..." and had that 'aww how cute' look on his face. And generally how he acted around Transmutate throughout the whole episode.

-the look on Rampage's face right before he's blasted with the huge rocket! XD

-when a butterfly landed on Depth Charge's chest and he said "What are YOU lookin' at?..."


... and a whole lot more I can't put in one post. @_@

I loved the whole Megatron/Inferno relationship.

"As you command my Queen!"
"Oh I do wish we would stop calling me that...."

Also the bit where Depth Charge flew in and blasted away Megs, Inferno and Rampage, and said "Big Preds are my specialty". That was pretty snazzy.

There's others but I'd end up writing out pretty much the whole series.

hehehe Feral Scream part one. One word. MEGATAZ!!!!!!
That episode with the submarine where Cheetor was imagining using the sub as a cat toy with Rattrap in it.
same episode. The part where Rattraps in the sub and Silverbotlt hears weird music playing through the comlink. The look on his face.

BTw Transmutate is a girl. XD she's voiced by Susan Blue. *shot*

Haha, yeah, I know. That's why I went for that pairing in the first place. If Transmutate had been a guy I would not have liked that pairing due to my intense dislike for anything slash. But that's just me.

And yeah, ditto to what everyone said about Dinobot's smile and the butterfly on DC's chest. It's moments like that that really make me smile.

Here's another one of my favorite moments, from Bad Spark.

Blackarachnia: *Making excuses as to why she saved Silverbolt, not knowing that the other Preds are listening in on her convo.*
Megatron: "Huh, yuck."

Or how about when Optimus was looking at the Bananas in Feral Scream pt 2? or Also, when Inferno, all damaged and broken shouted out: "I'll protect you Royalty" I cracked up laughing for hours for that.

There was also The ROCK 'EM, SOCK 'EM ROBOTS! Rhinox v Inferno!

And let's not forget this one:

Tarantulas: DIE MAXIMALS!
DinoBot/Rattrap: SHADDUP!

*falls over laughing*

I've got quite a few too numerous to mention, or even thinik about right now *hyperness not settlesm33pm33pm33p*

But there is:

Cheetor: Wow, Optimus sure learns a new body fast!
