	: ''[[The Transformers (toyline)\|The Transformers]]'' Overload transforms into a blue semi cab pulling a grey and red [[car carrier trailer]]. Overall, the colour scheme is quite similar to that of the ''[[Diaclone]]'' [[Ultra Magnus (G1)/toys#MoviePreview\|Powered Convoy]] toy that was later [[redeco]]ed into Generation 1 [[Ultra Magnus (G1)/toys#Generation 1\|Ultra Magnus]]. The similarities continue, as Overload's robot mode bears more than a passing resemblance to [[Optimus Prime (G1)\|Optimus Prime]], whilst his trailer even includes the iconic stripe down the side, albeit as a molded detail rather than a decal. The ramp/gate at the back of the trailer folds down, allowing one to transport up to two smaller Micromasters inside, and two more on the top deck.

	: Two of his limbs are based on ''Armada'' Optimus Prime; one "normal" (Inferno helmet), one pre-[[Earth]]-body (Knock Out helmet). The main torso-bot is based on Generation 1 Optimus's original body. Another limb-bot is based on [[Optimus Prime (Movie)\|live-action Optimus]] (Soundwave helmet), and the remaining one (Ironhide helmet)... is apparently based on Overload, who looks suitably concerned to be there! We don't know, folks. We just report this stuff.		: Two of his limbs are based on ''Armada'' Optimus Prime; one "normal" (Inferno helmet), one pre-[[Earth]]-body (Knock Out helmet).
