"The Insecticon Syndrome" the Transformers, October 9, 1985
The return of the Insecticons and the introduction of Beachcomber and Inferno.
Beachcomber, Hound, Bumblebee, and Spike are summoned to a national park. Seems something has been chewing up the forrest. Beachcomber makes it clear it must be the Insecticons, a fact the park ranger finds hard to believe.
But they are at it, rather hungry in fact. Megatron needs them to help with his attack on a nearby military base, and as a reward they can gorge themselves on a power plant.
They eat up, but something in the plant's core makes them grow to giant size. Soundwave tries to check on them, but Bombshell places him under his hypnotic command. Megatron, unaware of all this, continues to use the now stronger Insecticons but will he be able to control them?
Good, although like with many other characters Beachcomber and Inferno just show up with the implication that they've just been there the whole time and we never saw them.
