Notes

• Although Springer's head design and weapon of choice are homages to his Generation 1 counterpart, according to early comments by character designer Derrick J. Wyatt, he may not be a Triple Changer due to triple changing apparently driving you crazy in Animated. Besides, he can't be a helicopter anyway, since Autobots don't fly (usually).
• An initially proposed exclusive toy for BotCon 2011 was a redeco of Swindle into Springer.
