* MythologyGag: When Waspinator is driven temporarily insane, he babbles that his name is Shrapnel, an Insecticon from Generation One. Despite this, his speech pattern is much more reminiscent of Mixmaster's [[note]]at least, in the episode "City of Steel"[[/note]], who repeats the first syllable of a sentence several times. Shrapnel, on the other hand, repeats the last word of a sentence once.

* BeCarefulWhatYouWishFor: Megatron kidnapped Rhinox and turned him into a Predacon because he admired his intelligence and resourcefulness and desired to add someone with those traits to his resources. The problem is that he gets a ''Predacon'' version of Rhinox, who has all of his intelligence and cunning, but none of the morality and compassion that comes with being a Maximal. As such, Megatron soon finds a Predacon Rhinox is more than he can handle.

** Terrorsaur shows that he's not over his treacherous ambitions in overthrowing Megatron, just that he recognizes his limits and that he'd be better off attaching himself to someone more competent and powerful. Unfortunately for him, anyone competent, powerful and ambitious enough to overthrow Megatron wouldn't bother with a chump like Terrorsaur to begin with except using him as a disposable pawn, a role Predacon!Rhinox happily pressgangs him into.
** As a Predacon, Rhinox is frighteningly efficient at this. He effortlessly damages Scorponok and Waspinator, incapacitates the spiders, and intimidates Terrorsaur into submission. Even when Megatron figures out what's going on and brings in back-up, Rhinox is able to turn it around like that. He would've won if not for gloating first. Optimus fully anticipated all of this, due to knowing his old friend so well, and correctly banked on Megatron returning Rhinox to normal to save himself.
