Notes
- Potato is the main character of the Japanese stop-motion anime Pui Pui Molcar. The majority of his Transformers appearance seems to use pre-existing footage, with little effort to chroma-key him into actual scenes from the movie. TakaraTomy's official Transformers movie PR account warns viewers that, unfortunately, Potato does not appear in the full version of the film.[2] #ReleaseTheMolcarCut!
- Potato's main robot mode artwork is based on a "Molformers" parody poster that frequently appears in the background of many of the show's scenes.[3]
