Transformers references

  • The AllSpark and the war fought over its life-giving properties have been a central component of many prior Transformers series. Its appearance in EarthSpark most resembles its appearance in the live-action film series.
  • Megatron's disgust over Shockwave's "lower class" comment and his statement that he began the war so that "no one would kneel again" hearkens back to the class-based origins of the Great War in many previous series, most notably the Aligned continuity family and the 2005 IDW continuity.
  • The Cybertronian remembrance flowers that grow from the AllSpark are based on the flowers that first appeared in issue 44 of More than Meets The Eye, where they were planted on the Necrobot's planet. While their appearance is visually identical, they work slightly differently; each flower represents an Autobot, Deception, and human who died during the battle, and are not linked to particular killers.
  • What appears to be Blitzwing and Astrotrain (in space shuttle mode) cameo in some art depicting scenes from the Transformers' war on Earth. They are the only Decepticons featured in it who haven't appeared in the series proper.
  • Shockwave's tentacled claw and mind probe is very similar to the cortical psychic patch that first appeared in the Prime cartoon, in which it was created by the series' own resident Shockwave.
