Notes
[edit]- Photon's depiction in the 2005 IDW continuity was as a monochromatic corpse (though his brief appearance in "The Frail Gaze" gave him desaturated blue optics). However, whoever was in charge of choosing the colors for his living cameo in the 2019 IDW continuity seems to have taken this stereotypical Transformers "dead grey" rather literally, giving him a slate blue and grey color scheme (with orange optics).
