HISTORY & CLARIFICATION

I suppose it would only be fair that BREAKDOWN borrowed the SWEEP colour scheme at the very end of this episode, since a SWEEP had already been shown wearing his apparently very popular combination of dark red, dark blue, and cream. I say "popular" because it seems to have been one of a number of colour keys that the Korean animators (at AKOM) had lying around as sort of when-in-doubt-use-this references. This one occurs near the end of this first part of the mini-series, in a wide high-angle shot of the Decepticon charge on RODIMUS PRIME and GRIMLOCK. Surprisingly enough, this does not look half as bad in practice as it may sound in theory. Though the "pipe" on top of his head loses some of its definition with the lack of white to provide contrast and depth, this is one I sort of enjoy looking at.
