Indexer Notes

The display of Bumblebee on the splash page was based on the first Bumblebee toy.

Only two of the jets (Starscream, Thundercracker and Skywarp) appear in this story. One is (given the color scheme and facial expression) obviously Starscream, the other is more likely to be Thundercracker than Skywarp.
