#5: MOON PATROL

Join the A-Pod D-Cast team as they discuss minute 5 of the animated classic. Topics include:

• Autobots' not-so-secret staging ground!
• Cybertron = Detroit!
• Victor Caroli: Horrifying, yet calming.
• Lazerbeak: Not compatible with our system!
• Ironhide wants some action!
• Shockwave: All by himself!
• Frank Welker as Megatron: Lost in a cave?!
• Optimus Prime: Germaphobe?
• Ron Friedman: Please come on our show!!

I remember as a kid being drawn into the Transformers series not only by the very cool introduction sequence, but also by this superbly written and wonderfully narrated opening scene. Even though the great Victor Caroli narrated the scrolling text in the animated movie, this narration from "More Than Meets the Eye" Part 1 was easily his single best piece of Transformers-related work.

This was one of my (Ryan's) favorite Atari 2600 games ever. Also, I recommend that if you like retro games, subscribe to this channel, plus AVGN.
