However, I did find a way to pretty closely simulate the "transform" noise, which my geeky junior high pals found endlessly impressive. And you're right--Megatron was definitely better and more interesting than the lunatic Galvatron that he became after the movie.

Batman Beyond is set 50 years in Gotham's future, and a really old (pushing 80) Bruce Wayne bequeathes the Batman paraphanalia to a teenage guy who stumbles across the Batcave. Pretty interesting stuff.

Spiderman and his amazing friends? Oh god that was amusing. Their presto-chango-living room was the funniest, liek the '60s Batman show (which I detest).
