==Computron's back==
Computron's back is not Lightspeed's chest. It's just a generic closed-up back. Someone (probably the same person who inserted this Trivia item) also inserted a Trivia item that Lightspeed's back is the same as his front. As I noted on the Lightspeed Discussion, it's just generalised, and doesn't really look anything like Lighspeed's chest (it's just red and is inset around his lower back). Devastator's animation model doesn't show the huge gap between Hook and Long Haul, and Menasor invariably is depicted with cars "on" his arms, instead of cars "as" his arms.<div id="wikia-credits"><br /><br /><small>From [http://transformers.wikia.com Teletraan I: The Transformers Wiki], a [http://www.wikia.com Wikia] wiki.</small></div>

121.44.232.73: Back views of the Technobots?

I might be wrong here, but don't the Technobots join Fortress Maximus' group because of his plan to leave Cybertron, rather than serving under his command prior to his decision to depart? I think the same also applies to the Monsterbots.--[[User:Tribimat|Tribimat]] 14:59, 17 December 2006 (UTC)
: Their first appearances could be construed that way, but I don't believe it says out-right. The two groups do introduce themselves individually to Fort Max as they enter the Steelhaven, but, well, everyone does that all the time in Budiansky-land, so I didn't think much of it. --[[User:ItsWalky|ItsWalky]] 15:59, 17 December 2006 (UTC)

==Back views==
Are the rear views of the Technobots '''that''' riddled with errors? To me it just looks like they've been generalized, like every other Transformer. Their kibble has been reduced or removed, like the Seekers (nosecones missing from Skywarp, Thundercracker and Skywarp), Cyclonus' nosecone, Springer's various kibble, wheels being removed from practically every Autobot, and the big gap in Optimus Prime's G1 figure is closed up in every episode. I'm not sugggesting that the Technobots are animated as toy-accurate, but they don't really seem any worse than the animation model of any other figure. At least not to the level that it bears mentioning in this article.<div id="wikia-credits"><br /><br /><small>From [http://transformers.wikia.com Teletraan I: The Transformers Wiki], a [http://www.wikia.com Wikia] wiki.</small></div>

==Back view==
Is the rear view of Lightspeed really any more toy-inaccurate than any other animated character? Kibble is virtually always removed in the animation, from the original MTMTE episodes in 1984 onwards; wheels, spoilers, wings, accessories... Afterburner's second wheel, the nosecones of the original Seekers, Megatron's extra gun bits, Nosecone's nosecone... The animation model has been generalized, but they always are. The rear view of Lightspeed does contain features not present in the toy (although the "windscreen" is not actually present, as he has a solid red back), but how is this noteworthy, compared to the other characters? Is it also noteworthy that he walks with two separate feet, instead of the conjoined ones on his toy, or that his car-mode glasshouse (windscreen, side windows) are significantly reduced in his animated robot mode?<div id="wikia-credits"><br /><br /><small>From [http://transformers.wikia.com Teletraan I: The Transformers Wiki], a [http://www.wikia.com Wikia] wiki.</small></div>

==Rear shoulder==
The "shoulder" is his jet-mode nosecone. And it's there in his toy. It's actually more unusual that they show it in his robot mode, because stuff like that is usually removed.
This is very strange. There have been a lot of entries added to the Technobots/Computron complaining reporting the so-called "errors" in the backs of the animation models, and then there's this one, basically complaining that it's more toy-accurate. Which do you want?<div id="wikia-credits"><br /><br /><small>From [http://transformers.wikia.com Teletraan I: The Transformers Wiki], a [http://www.wikia.com Wikia] wiki.</small></div>
