			* In case you weren't keeping track, [[Brawl (Movie)\|Brawl]] and [[Bonecrusher (Movie)\|Bonecrusher]] are the only characters from the film who didn't get ''Premium Series'' redecos. But they did show up in ''Asia Premium Series'' and ''Transformers Movie The Best'' respectively, if that's any consolation.
