Trivia
- Buenos Aires, Argentina, was one of three Earth cities that the Underbase-enhanced super-Starscream chose to destroy at the climax of the Underbase Saga. This seemingly-inexplicable choice was actually a nod to Jose Delbo's birthplace.
- Delbo was often very literal with his translations of the Transformers characters, occasionally copying their appearance and pose directly from their Transformers Universe profile art. Sometimes this backfired on him. In the original profile art, Starscream's right "ear" is blocked from view by his shoulder intake. Delbo consistently interpreted this as Starscream having only one "ear."
