Continuity errors
Transformers references
- It is possible the two different Starscreams represent a part of Starscream's personality:
-Purple is Starscream's cowardice (either towards Megatron or just cowardly in general).
-Orange is Starscream's pension for flaterry or use of deceipt.
If more Starscream replicas appear in the future, each will have a unique personality to one of Starscream's personality traits: like being boastful, having a pension for speeches or being traitorous and manipulative.
Real-world references
- This episode contains numerous references to A Fistful of Dollars, including the title, Lockdown wearing a poncho in his first appearance & the Mexican standoff scene in the warehouse.
Miscellaneous trivia
- Bumblebee and Sari are absent from this episode, with Optimus saying that they're on an "important fact finding mission". Considering that practically every other Autobot that has appeared in the series thus far was in this episode, it sort of evens out.
