Notes
- Something's going on with Side Burn. Though he speaks like a mirrorverse Side Burn would (gently ranting against "undue attention to females"), there are other indicators that he's not exactly what he seems. He hasn't been with the Autobots long, he already had an Earth mode, and so far he's the only character, short of Crasher and Demolishor, who isn't based on someone from G1. He may very well be the real Side Burn: at the end of the Universe conflict he was last seen being tossed into a transwarp portal by Omega Prime (who, in turn, was sent not to his own home timeline but to a Unicron Trilogy universe).
