	* Dud Spud is... weird. No other mold-reuse in ''BotBots'' is so minorly changed from the original; when images of Series 6 released, many assumed it was just going to be Spud Muffin again, which made sense given his prominence in the [[Transformers: BotBots (cartoon)\|''BotBots'' cartoon]]. The mystery deepens, however, as the pack-in catalog shows a very different deco for Dud Spud, with a yellow visor and reddish-orange fries, implying Cajun-style or possibly sweet potato fries. Yet Dud is in ''five'' different pieces of box-art this series and they're all in the final Spud-Muffin-esque colors. Meanwhile, fellow pack-in [[Veggietron]] is in three of those pieces of art with their catalog-photo colors that differ significantly from the final Veggietron toy....		* Dud Spud is... weird.
