Notes
- Leonard Nimoy portrayed Spock on Star Trek.
- Wheelie's line is the first of three references to Spock in Dark of the Moon, referencing Nimoy's presence among the cast as the voice of Sentinel Prime. The second is Sentinel's own line, "The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few." Finally, Bumblebee plays a voice clip of Spock saying "I will always be your friend", from Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan.
- Spock is involved in the crossover event, Infestation. As he did not interact with the Transformers universe in that event, his actions are not detailed here.
- Spock's logical character was the inspiration for Shockwave.[3]
- In the Infestation sketchbook, a zombified, rotting Spock is shown clawing his way out of a Mark VI torpedo casing filled with highly-evolved worms. The notion that Spock could "rise from the dead" out of a Mark VI torpedo casing is of course ridiculous and merits no further discussion.
