Excellent! I could never figure out why Jam was associated with Hot Shot. Now, I knows! Mwa-ha-ha!

Re: Did you know?

Furthermore did you know that the toy reviews on BWTF.com use reproduced panels of Hot Shot from that very same fan comic as a scoring system?

Here is Ben's review for Universe Hot Shot which, ironically, he hated:

Those are the only ones I found myself. I'm not very good at this game.
The Springer one I knew of, but the Scorponok one is very interesting

Re: Did you know?

G1 Camshaft is named after a part in which he was the only car NOT to have. Rotory engines use eccentric shafts.

If I'm not mistaken, when you align Scorponok's "robot mode" legs together, it also forms the BW Predacon insignia, making him a double-homage. I don't have my own pics but you can see it on his legs in this:

G1 Hot Rod had a straight collar in his animation model by Floro Dery (But is non existant in any other art forms). Animated gave birth to the flared/popped collar.
