The following characters were simply namedropped: Gears, Hound, Whirl, Grapple, Thundercracker, Starscream, Ravage, Soundwave, Buzzsaw, Ramjet, Shockwave, Skywarp, Red Alert, Skids, Sideswipe and Tracks. Metroplex is mentioned as Autobot City with no indication that he is an independent being.
• The characters Smokescreen, Hoist, Frenzy, Blaster, Thrust, Seaspray, Bombshell, Kickback, Shrapnel, Blitzwing, Chopshop, Astrotrain and Trailblazer occur only as answers to puzzles.
• Dirge is described as being red and blue, perhaps out of confusion with Thundercracker. Tracks is described as purple. Skids is described as a mini van. Frenzy is described as blue. The strange hats for each Seeker first seen in Decepticon Patrol reappear here. Each Seeker also has a distinct jet mode.
• Sparkplug's garage is mentioned as a location, but Sparkplug himself does not appear.
