I'm not looking at the brochure right now, but my recollection is that Thundercracker was somehow draining the Autobots' (or someone's, anyway) energy with that white beam. -LV 15:43, 28 March 2006 (UTC)
There was a blackout, and Johnny construes that Thundercracker is in the proscess of stealing power (as he put it, the autobot's prescious power, though in practic this was clearly the public's power.) But he saw the light RISING UP to meet thundercracker, who then circled to land. That doesnt' seem like power being beamed to TC or anything... it's really strange. -Derik 21:19, 28 March 2006 (UTC)
