Notes
[edit]- The G2 annual seemed to occupy its own strange continuity where the Transformers awoke on Earth in 1994, and Megatron's Generation 2 'tank' form was his first body on Earth.
- The crossword is particularly obtuse, and an apparently random numbering system (9 down is at the top, for some reason) doesn't help. For the record, the answers are:
- Across: 1. Sparkabots 2. Piranha 3. Megatron 4. Sizzle 5. Illuminators 6. Jazz 7. Hotrod 8. Red 9&10. The Ark
- Down: 1. Optimus Prime 2. Blitz 3. Iacon 4. Green 5. Electro 6. Ramjet 7. Starscream 8. Tank 9. Blaze
- The clues indicate that Hot Foot and Piranha, and Volt and Electro are brothers.
- Electro and Blitz's packaging art appears on puzzle pages, but the characters don't show up in any of the included stories.
- Of course, the European names for the G2 characters are used throughout.
