Notes
- Fastback's toy representation is the result of a network of homage connections. Generation 1 Brawn was retooled into Generation 1 Outback, who later received an altered-color homage as Fastback. Shattered Glass Brawn was later repurposed from 2007 movie line Strongarm, a redeco of Energon Strongarm. Thus Shattered Glass Fastback is a repurposing of 2007 movie line Crosshairs, another redeco of Energon Strongarm, so as to share a body-type with Shattered Glass Brawn.
