Notes

[edit]
  • There was no indication what universe Swashplate was from on his packaging. The Facebook edition of Ask Vector Prime would later declare him to be a Unicron Trilogy character.
  • All four of the Mini-Cons in this assortment come on red cards like the Generations toys, but lack the "Generations" on the logo, thus this wiki classifies them as "2010" product.
  • Swashplate's helicopter mode is hilariously mistransformed on the back of his card. His cockpit is upside-down while his legs, meant to be put on his roof, are left dragging behind him.
  • Swashplate's two fellow gang-molded Mini-Cons were released in the 2010 Transformers toyline as Brake-Neck and Drivetrain, though it would be odd to form a team of three as Drivetrain is a Decepticon.
