* EarlyInstallmentWeirdness: The franchise wasn't supposed to be part of the ''Aligned'' universe at first as the first two toyline waves have completely different partners for the Rescue Bots such as Boulder being partnered with Walker Cleveland and Medix and Hoist being part of the team. In addition, Chief Charlie Burns is a fire chief and is partners with Optimus Prime and Cody ended up being split into...Cody (name, friendly personality) and Kade (tall, firefighter, partners with Heatwave).

* MythologyGag: This being a ''Transformers'' series, the show is already accumulating quite a few of these.
** Heatwave's alternate mode is very similar to that of Optimus Prime's in ''Anime/TransformersCybertron'' and ''[[Anime/TransformersRobotsInDisguise Robots in Disguise]]''.
** The first episode features malfunctioning, rampaging robot dinosaurs, in a story that is similar to the plot of the ''WesternAnimation/TransformersAnimated'' episode that introduced the Dinobots.
** And, as noted above, the first episode features the Rescue Bots picking up a message from Optimus Prime calling them to Earth, much like the ones spoken in ''WesternAnimation/TransformersPrime'' and in [[Film/{{Transformers}} the first movie.]]
*** They also have an ElaborateUndergroundBase left over from the Cold War, just like the Autobots do in ''Prime.''
** The Rescue Bots are first shown in "blank", featureless forms prior to scanning alternate modes, similar to the "Protoforms" from the movie and ''WesternAnimation/BeastWars'' series.
** One episode involves a "dinobot". However, this type of dinobot is just a pet, with "dinobot" simply being the nickname for it.
** The Rescue Bots have screens inside their vehicle modes that display their faces, like in ''Anime/TransformersRobotsInDisguise.''
** [[spoiler:The Morocco virus' toy form closely resembles Morocco's Playskool action figure.]]
