It's really weird to know how much Transformers Animated team members hated Beachcomber and then they wrote Prowl the way they did. TFA Prowl is just ninja Beachcomber. Like, put Prowl in the Golden Lagoon episode and it would be nearly identical.
They hated Beachcomber so much that they scripted, like, three possible death scenes and had Tom Kenny act out at least one only to create another version of him!
