- The Unicron Trilogy iterations of Airlift, Diveplane, and Reachout were later established as members of the Special Operations Team.
Notes
[edit]- The "Minicon 8 Pack" (and the later single-releases of the characters) gives no indication whatsoever what continuity they all hail from, plus the use of Cybertron and Classics molds does not help matters either.
- Though Barrel Roll alone appeared in the 2005 IDW continuity comics in 2012, the Facebook edition of Ask Vector Prime would later state that the members of the 8 pack exist in both the Generation 1 and Unicron Trilogy continuity families, though they are generally only "Mini-Cons" in the latter.
- In 2012, Airlift and Iron Claw were released separately in discount outlets in the United States along with Pan-Handler (a redeco of Sledge), Brake-Neck, Drivetrain and Swashplate (redecoes of the Recon Mini-Con Team).
