>Bumblebee being human-sized represented his closeness to his human allies.>Defensor one-shotting Bruticus was just to represent the futility of fighting evil even while possessing overwhelming power, evil can't be foiled by force alone.>Swindle seeling the Combaticons is also a commentary of American foreign policies at the time and a throwback to the Cuban missile crisis.>The college kids stealing Brawl's brain represented humanity's ambition to control forces beyond them.>Megatron's threat to Swindle represents how even in all its trickiness, evil is going to be judged and used for higher purposes.>The girl being tied and gagged was just fetish shit.
