Notes

Cliffjumper's bio notes he gets his names from the pistons in his legs.
Characters mentioned in Nexus Prime's bio include: Prima, Vector Prime, and Alpha Trion.
- Nexus Prime's missions is noted to be the retrieval of Prima's Star Saber.
- Oddly, Alpha Trion is mentioned as helping hide Nexus Prime away. Perhaps an early attempt to make him one of the Thirteen?
Characters mentioned in Galvatron's bio include: Nexus Prime, Optimus Prime, Rumbler, and Cyclonus.
- Galvatron uses an energy whip powered by nucleon.
- Galvatron is still able to use his Rumbler drone; this can be replicated on his toy.

Nexus Prime's name is given as "Nexus Maximus" in the title of his profile. Guess somebody didn't get the memo. Next issue is quick to correct this mistake.
