Notes
- After images of Streetstar were leaked onto the internet, a cooked-up image of Clench as a redeco of Universe Tankor was found and reported by some as being true. Later on, the BotCon site was updated...with artwork of the actual Clench. A bitter lesson for scoop-hounds.
- Speaking of Streetstar, the toy was originally named Streetwise. The day after being officially revealed, the name was changed to Streetstar. Fun Publications' Pete Sinclair assured fans that it was still the same Protectobot.
