NOTES
* This was the Pilot Episode. Features the Song Way Past Cool
* Also the only Story in this First Series withOUT the word 'Sonic' in the Title.
* Being a pilot there are a number of intresting bit which are listed in the following items
* When Robotnik appears in his Ship, the Computer states there Destantion as Planet Mobius. This means Robotnik has been on a Trip Else were and he comments on coming home.
* The Swat bots light gray with darker gray bits which mix with the whole 'lighter' tone of this pilot.
* The Swatbots seam more alive and are shown laughting at Snively, whom they give no respect to.
* Bunnie' Colours are much lighter and more purples.
* Sally is in an earlyer 'pink' design and goes out of her way to show she doesn't like using titles in the great forest. She also often wears a headset and has white tirms on her boots.
* Nicole seams to shown as a Large Yellow Computer on wheels, yet Sally does have what appears to be Nicole on her leg.
* Tails has bigger eyes and more of a cartoony 'comedy' feel then the final Series. His Shoes are also wrong as they are a complete switch of reds and Whites to Sonic's. However, in the First SatAM Series, they kept his the change for the main body of the sneakers but not the stocks.
* Buzz Bomber's are used but there design is nothing like the games.
* This Episode is the only apperance of Muttski, which might mean he was removed for the final Series.
* Sonic is able to override the Robotasizing programming without a Power Ring. even if it's only for a short time.
* Like Robotnik's Shuttle, the Hover Units have a completey different and more edge angled look then in the final series.
* All backgrounds and layout are, of course, completey difference and wrong for the final Series.
* Snively has a control pad that does a number of things like cause problems for Bots (like Clucks Eye).
* The Power Ring Effect is completey different.
* Tails is able to fit in Sonic's Backpack, showing the more cartoon side.
* Knothole village is in build into Trees not huts.
* Sally and Bunnie seam to Share a hut as Bunnie is trying to Sleep in bed and Sally is there.
* Sally seams a little dumber and Sonic is a little smarter then in the Final Series.
