:''Garbage O's is a cereal from the [[Transformers Animated (franchise)|Animated]] [[continuity family]].''

{{picsneeded|Scans of the book}}
'''Garbage O's''' is a food product endorsed by [[Wreck-Gar (Animated)|Wreck-Gar]] and manufactured by [[Tomax and Xamot|Extensive Enterprises]].

==Fiction==
===Transformers Animated===
Garbage O's is part of a complete breakfast for [[Protoform]]s. For class 1 through 3 protoforms, a standard serving is two [[standard Cybertronian Unit|kilo-units]]. There are twelve servings per container. Each box comes with a free prize, like harmful [[nanite|nanobots]]. There are also puzzles on the back, like word scrambles and mazes. The text on the back of the box tells the story of [[Garbage In, Garbage Out|the origin of Wreck-Gar.]]{{storylink|The AllSpark Almanac}}

==Transformers references==

*The brand of the tire in the logo is [[Wheeljack]] Tyres!

*In the “fueltritional facts” box alone, there are references to:
**mercury sauce, a favorite of the [[Mecannibal]]s from the Marvel Generation 1 comic
**[[Rarified Energon]], introduced in the Transformers Collectors Club magazine storyline, [[Crossing Over]]
**[[Energon Z]] from [[Zone (franchise)|Zone]]
**budianskium basil (referring to Transformers writer [[Bob Budiansky]])
**grated gears (a serving suggestion for ants by Beast Wars [[Rampage (BW)|Rampage]] in [[Transmutate (episode)|Transmutate]])
**janick jaAm (see below.)

*The word jumble unscrambles to read “You lived like a warrior ans died to an hero”, an infamous quote from the late-1990s fanfic by MG-Dinobot, “Dinobot's Old Technology”, which was itself a misquote from the Beast Wars episode [[Code of Hero]]. The quote went on to become one of the most famous online memes from that era of Transformers [[fandom]].
**The answer at the bottom of the page, however, claims it actually says “WhY mY ShOuldErs hUrT?”, a tortured quote from British fan Blueshift's famous re-scripting of the first Armada pack-in mini-comic. This was also the source of the above-mentioned “jaAm” line, which was since been immortalized on the license plate and packaging bio of the 2009 Universe Hot Shot figure.

*Illustration B in the “spot the difference” puzzle is, of course, Generation 1 [[Grimlock (G1)|Grimlock's]] [[character model]].

Any sort of faction or planet symbol used for the junkions?
:If there was one, it would've come with the e-Hobby Junkion Detritus, but I lack the toy and can't say for sure. Otherwise, they've just used the Autobot insignia.--[[User:MCRG|MCRG]] 03:49, 19 February 2007 (UTC)

Uh, When in the movie was Nitro mentioned? And given the context Wreck-gar used "Avanti" (A battle cry. "Forward, avanti, and, like, go for the gusto") it's likely he was telling the assorted Junkions to charge, rather than refering to anyone by name. --[[User:Tindalos|Tindalos]] 10:42, 17 October 2007 (UTC)
:Yeah, I believe "avanti" means "forward" in Italian. --[[User:KilMichaelMcC|KilMichaelMcC]] 16:38, 17 October 2007 (UTC)

== Disambig? ==

This is disambiguated with [[Junkion (planet)]]. What's the disambig for the species? -[[User:Derik|Derik]] 06:06, 8 April 2009 (EDT)

==Complete Ark names==
Shouldn't these guys now get their own pages? At the very least, we're missing half of their information. We have art of every single one of them. --[[User:ItsWalky|ItsWalky]] 20:43, 10 September 2009 (EDT)
:The Complete Ark isn't just an omnibus edition of v 1 and 2? -[[User:Derik|Derik]] 22:50, 10 September 2009 (EDT)
::Nope! New shit. --[[User:ItsWalky|ItsWalky]] 23:01, 10 September 2009 (EDT)
:::It's MOSTLY a compilation of V1 & V2, but I didn't see much point in having the same set of models in the book twice, so a bit of material from The Rebirth was excised. This gave me a few extra pages, which I mostly used for Godmasters. I also squeezed in the occasional model here and there for seasons 1-3. --00:35, 11 September 2009 (EDT)
