80's cartoon fandoms, you can hide the moon in their plot holes.
The helicopters didn't really hit me considering the majority of such I've seen tend to be triplechangers or part of a gestalt group.
Yeah, though as my grandpa used to say, the tank is just a bigger target that needs a bit more firepower to take down. That and with the seekers and hiding there was probably anti-seeker sentiment amongst some groups as they went. Making the younglings not look like seekers even more of a blessing.
OUr favorite trio of Datsun/Lambos also have their positions and such to help with that I bet too. Since aside from the twins the rest probably didn't get exposed as much to seekers early on. Blue being a gunner he probably stayed undercover a lot, Prowl and Red Alert are officers that they can't really afford to lose, Smokescreen is a Diversionary tactician and part of the psych corp so most wouldn't have been exposed battlefield wise all that much until earth.
The old hide them in plain sight. Seeker goes for a potential youngling only to find it's not and have to fight off that Lambo now.
