Quotes
"You should go first. You're still slightly larger than me, so there's a greater chance of you touching the foam and exploding... and if that happens there's no point in me putting my own life at risk."
"And everyone says you were the kindhearted one."
"Were?"
- —Rewind and Megatron
"On your Lost Light, me and Domey... are we still going strong? Megatron?"
"You're inseparable."
- -Rewind and Megatron

Other trivia
- Vos really demonstrates his sadistic tendencies here. He forces Rewind to record the executions of the rest of the crew (even holding his head in place so he can't look away), offers Chromedome the sadistic choice of either erasing Rewind from his memory and dying, and when Chromedome chooses death proceeds to stab him through the eyes.
- Tarn kills Alter-Cyclonus by shooting him in the head with rifle-mode Vos while performing a high-flying jump. Evil and sadistic, sure, but a damn good shot.
