The Decepticon sympathizer whom Don Figueroa drew in the background of 2002's The War Within #2 was not named in his original appearance. In 2015, the Facebook edition of Ask Vector Prime would retcon him to be the unvisualized Decepticon "Stormbringer" mentioned in the text of 2003's The Dark Ages #1.
Stormbringer's design is based on the Dia Battles (ダイアバトルス) toy from the 1980Diaclone line that was never brought over into the Generation 1 toyline. The classic toy itself comes in primary colors. A 2016 revamp of this toy was used for the Beast Wars: Uprising incarnation of Magmatron.
