Bright light! Bright light!

Gizmo is famous for his, well, gizmos. His best (okay, only) known gizmo is his holomatter projector. He transforms into a little Cybertronic dunebuggy.

He likes to die.

As the first was never seen, and both instances are from writer Simon Furman, it's likely —but not definitely proven— the latter instance is a reference to the first, despite the different continuities.
