==Trivia==
* ''G.I. Joe'' Sideswipe is modeled and named after [[Hasbro]] employee [[Andew Frankel]], who also worked on the ''Transformers'' toyline.

* The ''[[Beast Wars]]'' name "[[Tarantulas]]" actually came from an unproduced Joe-series "Manimals" toy, [http://www.yojoe.com/archive/unproduced/man95-5.shtml Tarantulus].

* Contrary to fan rumors, the name [[Kobushi]] was NOT originally intended for an unreleased ''Xevoz'' figure. The unreleased Xevoz figure was named "Scarabushi."

* Hasbro has occasionally used names from non-Hasbro toylines that were obtained via corporate buyouts and the like for ''Transformers'' characters, with the most notable examples being [[Generation 2]] [[Gobots]], named after the [[Tonka GoBots]] toyline, and ''[[Armada]]'' [[Leader-1]], named after the leader of the "good guy" Tonka GoBots.

*Hasbro and Tonka also shared certain GoBots names when they were still in competition. Blaster, Rumble and Warpath were both Transformers and GoBots.
