Notes

They're really going out of their way to promote this convention - which, for the record, isn't theirs!
Character's mentioned in Side Burn's profile include: Prowl.
- Side Burn has been nicked named "Speedbreaker", his Car Robots name.
Character's mentioned in Prowl's profile include: Side Burn and Optimus Prime.
A fair few errors in this one. C'mon, Jeremiah, keep it together!
- The "On The Cover" blurb is a right mess.
- In the article about SDCC 2011 exclusives, "deco" is pluralized using an apostrophe.
- Prowl's bio is full of comma splices and run-ons. For example: "After Prowl watched the Great War unfold around him and saw countless bots perish in needless and violent ways, when given a situation, it's his job to find the most efficient way of winning."
