Notes
[edit]
- Early promotional images of the set showed Effect in a different color scheme than what was eventually produced; red and pink is remarkably different from the blue and white Effect ended up with. It is unknown if this early coloration for the Team was even possible, due to the gang-molding process the Mini-Con Teams were made with.
- No, we haven't sussed out just what the thought process behind his name is yet. It doesn't really match with the names of his "teammates" Seeker and Blitz, nor does it seem to have any connection to the source-mold's Japanese name "Glide". Your guess is as good as ours.
- In February 2026, Greg Sepelak revealed that Contrail was proposed as a localized name for a Transformers Collectors' Club website bio which never came to fruition.[2]
