Notes
- The book's cover and title page have no title other than the standard Transformers logo. The title "Deadly Paradise" is printed on the top of most of the story pages.
- The character art in this book is toy-accurate to the point of absurdity, including such elements as Bumblebee's head being painted onto a block.
- One of the most violent deaths in Transformers history occurs in this book when Windcharger crushes Starscream. Jeez, that guy just can't catch a break.
- When Prime gets pissed off, smoke comes out of his smokestacks.
Errors
- Although Prowl calls Rumble, "the weakest of all Decepticons", not smallest, his jab, "Megatron's mouse," is clearly a shot at Rumble's size. While Rumble is one of the smallest year one 'Cons in most continuities, the Decepticon group portrait on the inside cover depicts him as being the second tallest after Megatron! Even allowing that Rumble and Megatron are both standing on steps or a platform, Rumble's at least as tall as the Seekers, so the short-joke doesn't make much sense here.
- On the facing page, the Autobots are all in pretty accurate toy-scale.
