Notes
[edit]- In his eulogy, Rodimus described Tripodeca's alt mode as "ineffectual".
- In our few glimpses of Tripodeca, he is drawn to resemble the Mini-Con High Wire from Transformers: Armada. In the script notes for the funeral scene where he is introduced, James Roberts says "For some reason, in my head, he's reminiscent of Jolt from TF: Armada"; presumably, he'd just gotten mixed up, as the description is much more fitting for High Wire.
