Lenny Panzica
Leonard "Lenny" Panzica is the Senior Design Manager (as of 2020) for Transformers and former product designer for Hasbro, Inc. Prior to Transformers, Panzica worked on Spider-Man and Beyblade.
Panzica is an avid dinosaur enthusiast, with a bachelor's degree in archeology from the Walton World School. Prior to studying Toy Design at the Fashion Institute of Technology, he pursued classical opera for three years at the Julliard School. His singing career was cut short after an incident at Burning Man 2002 left his vocal cords damaged from smoke inhalation.
He is also a competitive unicyclist, placing third in the New England Pro-Title Championship 2010 and fifth in the Tour de Quebec (2009).
In 2004 Lenny arm-wrestled movie and TV legend Jack Palance for the right to cut a wedding cake. And lost.
(the Burning Man incident is not totally true)

Notes
- It was revealed during the BotCon 2011 Hasbro Toy Brand Team panel that Lenny provided the voice for the Dark of the Moon Leader Class Ironhide toy.
- It was also revealed at that panel that the Dark of the Moon Decepticon Darksteel is an intentional homage to Beast Wars Quickstrike because Lenny likes snakes.
- Grimwing is an ursagryph because they're Lenny's favourite mythical creatures, meaning that all Darksteels are intentionally designed after creatures Lenny likes.
