Notes

[edit]
His legs inspired Pat Lee art.
  • Pulse's design was based on the MC-19 Binocular Robo Scope Man (双眼鏡ロボスコープマン Sōgankyō Robo Sukōpu Man) toy from the Micro Change line. Though the Micro Change toy itself is mainly blue, its fictional Transformers appearance is mainly yellow. Some of that might be due to lighting. Takara filed a U.S. patent claim for the Scope Man toy in September 1984, at the same time as other Micro Change figures that were actually reused for Transformers, like Perceptor and Blaster. Whether this means that Scope Man was considered for reuse as well or this was just Takara covering their bases is unknown.
  • The robot in the art of The War Within #2 was unnamed till Ask Vector Prime retconned him to be the "Pulse" mentioned in the text of "Fragmentation".
  • Separately, "Pulse" was also a preliminary Hasbro name for Generation 1 Blaster.
