Footnotes
- ↑ Pinpointer is focused on avoiding waste in all things, be it natural resources, movement or even the amount of words used in a conversation. To say he's very businesslike and efficient itself would be a waste of words, when simply calling him rude would suffice for most.
- ↑ Whenever he does speak, he sounds like Fred from Scooby Doo.
- ↑ Crosshairs is similarly obsessed with avoiding waste with regards to combat and ammunition, so he understands where Pinpointer is coming from. They get on fairly well.
- ↑ Pinpointer transforms into a dual rocket-propelled grenade launcher who can lock on a target in less than .0003 seconds, but usually trusts Crosshairs to tell him when to shoot.
- ↑ Crosshairs' Marvel Transformers Universe profile from Marvel US issue #48
