Notes
[edit]- The text implies that Sorenson disguised himself as Octus, and therefore that Octus is a separate entity, a Decepticon with an alternate mode and six arms (unlike Sorenson). However, one could also interpret it as saying that Octus is just the disguise, not a real Transformer; this seems the less likely option.
- The disguise is achieved with reverse-pretender technology.
- Animated Octus is based on the one-time Marvel Generation 1 Decepticon leader Octus.
