	* Megatron's audience of Decepticons on page 1 features many background cameos drawn by penciller Don Figueroa based upon obscure Takara toys which were not imported by Hasbro for ''The Transformers'' toyline in [[1984]], though colorist Rob Ruffolo has given them all original colour schemes.		* Megatron's audience of Decepticons on page 1 features many background cameos drawn by penciller Don Figueroa based upon obscure Takara toys which were not imported by Hasbro for ''The Transformers'' toyline in [[1984]], though colorist Rob Ruffolo has given them all original colour schemes.

	** In the middle row at far left is the [[1982]] ''{{gb\|Machine Robo (toyline)\|Machine Robo}}'' toy MR-01 Bike Robo, aka [[Cy-Kill (GoBots)\|Cy-Kill]] of ''[[GoBots]]'' game, drawn with the characteristic C-shaped fingerless hands made famous by the 1984 ''{{gb\|Challenge of the GoBots (cartoon)\|Challenge of the GoBots}}'' animated series.		** In the middle row at far left is the [[1982]] ''{{gb\|Machine Robo (toyline)\|Machine Robo}}'' toy MR-01 Bike Robo, aka [[Cy-Kill (GoBots)\|Cy-Kill]] of ''[[GoBots]]'' game, drawn with the characteristic C-shaped fingerless hands made famous by the 1984 ''{{gb\|Challenge of the GoBots (cartoon)\|Challenge of the GoBots}}'' animated series.
	** Standing next to Cy-Kill is MC-06 Watch Robo, who did see a ''Transformers'' release in [[1993]]'s ''[[Transformers: Generation 2 (toyline)\|Generation 2]]'' toyline as the Autobot character "Autobot", using the silver deco from ''Micro Change''. For many years, owing to the lack of any better placement option, this wiki documented the Watch Robo character on the "[[Autobot (G2)]]" page despite the character's probable Decepticon status. Finally in [[2015]], the Facebook edition of [[Ask Vector Prime]] would flesh out this character, identifying him as a Generation 1 incarnation of the 2007 movie toyline Decepticon [[Meantime (Movie)\|Meantime]], also a dark-colored watch-former. Ask Vector Prime would also identify G1 Meantime as representative of the unused black deco from the ''Micro Change'' toyline, which more-or-less passes the squint test.		** Standing next to Cy-Kill is MC-06 Watch Robo, who did see a ''Transformers'' release in [[1993]]'s ''[[Transformers: Generation 2 (toyline)\|Generation 2]]'' toyline as the Autobot character "Autobot", using the silver deco from ''Micro Change''.

	** In the bottom row to the right of Xeon's head is the then-unnamed variant of ''Diaclone'' Lancia Stratos Turbo, commonly nicknamed by fans as "Marlboro Wheeljack" as the base version was used for the Generation 1 Autobot [[Wheeljack (G1)\|Wheeljack]] while the secondary ''Diaclone'' deco was inspired by the tobacco company Marlboro. In [[2015]], TakaraTomy would recreate the variant toy properly as a ''Transformers'' character, named [[Exhaust]].		** In the bottom row to the right of Xeon's head is the then-unnamed variant of ''Diaclone'' Lancia Stratos Turbo, commonly nicknamed by fans as "Marlboro Wheeljack" as the base version was used for the Generation 1 Autobot [[Wheeljack (G1)\|Wheeljack]] while the secondary ''Diaclone'' deco was inspired by the tobacco company Marlboro.
