Autobots	Decepticons	Others
Bumblebee (1) Windblade (3) Optimus Prime (4) Hot Rod (5)	Lockdown (6) Clobber (7) Decepticon soldiers (9) Shockwave (10) Shadow Striker (11) Soundwave (12) Megatron (14) Starscream (15)	Cheetor (2) Teletraan-X (8) Scraplets (13)

Starscream claims one of the Scraplets is Alpha Trion who wants the Matrix of Leadership back, referring to the first flashback of "Matrix of Leadership" where the dying Trion bequeathed the talisman to Optimus.

While Cyberverse Scraplets are based on their Prime counterparts, they function differently. In their prior appearances, they were ravenous, piranha-like creatures that swarmed and quite literally ate their victims alive, while these Scraplets only feed only on their victim's energon, leaving them paralyzed but otherwise unharmed.

When Slipstream was bitten by Scraplets back in "Parley", her arm was damaged to the point she could apparently no longer move it. Here, despite how brutal the Scraplets attacks on Hot Rod, Bumblebee and Optimus look, once the threat has passed there's no visible damage to them.
