Notes
- According to Dan Gilvezan in his autobiography Bumblebee & Me, Gilbert once brought a dinner plate-sized South American Tarantula to a Transformers recording session, which at one point managed to escape its container much to the rest of the cast's horror. Gilbert eventually recovered the spider, but Wally Burr instituted a very firm "no pets" policy from that point on.
