  • In issue #234 of the UK series, Arcee singlehandedly forced the Decepticons into a retreat because she was annoyed at the Autobots' lack of faith in her equal ability. Let that sink in. A single Autobot singlehandedly forced the Decepticons into a retreat. Because she was annoyed the Autobots' lack of faith in her.
  • Minutes after Megatron has revealed himself to be Not Quite Dead to Ratchet, Ratchet starts with the snarkery. When he later asks how he came back to life, Megatron says he has every intention of telling him. Ratchet's response?
  • Seconds after Grimlock's resurrection, he tries to rush Megatron. Megatron simply side-steps, and Grimlock falls through a hole in the wall, several stories up.
  • Anytime the Autobots try to make sense of human customs; special mention goes to Bluestreak mistaking a kiss for some kind of "energy transfer," in Issue #11. Let's just say the comics make good use of the Fish out of Water situation the Autobots are in.
  • Dreadwind and Darkwing returning to Cybertron, having been certain they were chased by Mecannibals, and stating to Megatron that they're not really sure where their pursuers went. Cut to outside...
    Mecannicabl: (feasting on a dead Cybertronian) Good food.
    Mecannibal: And plenty of it!
  • Seawatch's only moment of anything, when he drags Bludgeon around by the leg, and his wonderful line beforehand.
    Seawatch: Hey, Bludgeon, you know how to ski? (starts dragging Bludgeon through the water) That's okay. Neither do I!
  • A Decepticon civil war kicks off with Shockwave levelling Scorponok's base, with a shot big enough and loud enough to be heard all the way across the other side of the Hudson (Scorponok's base is in New Jersey). The scene cuts to a bunch of New York office workers staring at the sight from a window, and someone says this.
    Human: Has anyone called the police?
    Other Human: Why? It's only Jersey.
  • In "The Cosmic Carnival!", Berko, Big Top's personal enforcer, performs a Heel–Face Turn and helps the Autobots and their human kid friends out. When Big Top learns of it, he gets mad and gives him an odd threat.
    Big Top: Well, I got a bonus for your good work—first I'm gonna rip your limbs out, one by one…and then I'm gonna fire you!
