Trivially Pointless Minutia
- Much like Milton's classic Paradise Lost, Bumblebee Rumble begins in medias res, starting out with Sam on a pink bicycle trying desperately to escape the Camaro that has been following him.
- Barricade is described as being 16 feet tall; Shawn Currie seems to enjoy mentioning that particular fact.
- Rather than an industrial zone seen in the movie, the action in this case takes place close to downtown.
- Mikaela knocks Frenzy out...with her bare hands. Because reciprocal saws are for wimps.
Distribution
Transformers Play-a-Sound books were available in the US at Kohl's stores.
