Notes
Continuity notes
- Ravage previously appeared as a toy store clerk in the first issue of the webcomic.
Transformers references
- Toys in Rattrap's collection include a Break, a Seasaurus, a Convoy, and a Guiledart. The one he buys in the end is, of course, the Legends Rattrap toy this comic came packaged with.
- Arcee's appearance as Rattrap's aunt is a reference to Rattrap's "my great-aunt Arcee" line in "Transmutate".
- On the train with Rattrap are Junko from Car Robots and real-life TakaraTomy employees Shogo Hasui and Hisashi Yuki, the latter pair previously seen in the Transformers Celebration 2014 chapter of the Legends webcomic.
