Notes

[edit]
  • Overbite's freeze beam blaster is only mentioned in his Universe profile, where it is described as his shark mode weapon of choice. His toy's packaging bio and instructions identify his robot mode weapon as the jawbreaker cannon; this is the name his Universe bio gives to Overbite's own weapon mode, also noting that he can wield the cannon in robot mode. Further, the artwork for his Universe profile shows his robot mode gun to be single-barreled, but his weapons mode to be double-barreled. This all adds up to indicate that at one point in development, Overbite's toy was probably going to have two guns—both the freeze beam blaster and the jawbreaker cannon—which would have plugged together for his weapons mode, just as his fellow Seacons Tentakil, Skalor and Seawing did.
