Did you know?

Thought I'd start a thread of things you didnt know about certain toys.

Heres my example of what I mean

In the TFA cartoon Lockdown took Ratchets EMP and left the wound on his arm. What I did not realize, hence the "Did you know" that the actual toys can trade parts. The EMP which acts as Lockdowns engine chasis fits on Ratchets wound.

Now many of you may have known this already, but I'm sure a few didnt.

So with this, does anyone else have any little easter eggs or other surprises that others may not know about any of the toylines?

Re: Did you know?

The only real cool easter egg that I can think of off the top of my head is this one:



The gun from the Titanium War Within Optimus Prime as the name "Don" on it (backwards... but it is there). I think this Don guy might have had a hand in the War Within designs or something.

Re: Did you know?

As far as Animated toy trivia goes, I know that despite being in a different size category, you can take the Headmaster accessory from Leader-class Bulkhead and with some finagling, fit it over the head of the Deluxe Sentinel Prime, thus allowing you to recreate the episode where Headmaster bodyjacks Sentinel. ^_^

You can do the same with their ROTF counterparts

Re: Did you know?

Ok, here's one just to contribute. I think it's pretty well known but what the hey. ROTF Bruticus set. The brawl figure has the numbers and letters 1MJ9 painted on it. If you look at them upside down, they spell brwl (brawl).
