Other notes

• This story seems to take place in an alternate version of Generation 1 cartoon continuity. (Take two drinks)

Transformers references

• Grimlock seems to be holding a stuffed petrorabbit.
• Cyclonus is in his Universe toy body, and Hot Rod in his Universe Legends body. Grimlock seems to be based on his Masterpiece figure, but that's based on his cartoon character model to begin with, so that's all kind of circular. The other Dinobots and (framing story) Kup are their cartoon character models.
• The framing story is lifted almost wholesale from a similar scene in The Transformers: The Movie.
