despite being prominent parts of the previous movie and of the toyline, Grimlock and the Dinobots are barely in The Last Knight, only making brief appearances in the first half of the movie and never transforming out of dino mode. (2017)
502
Megatron sneaks into a lab by hiding in a gun case. (1985)
503
The RID 2001 Optimus Prime toy has a voice chip that says "Optimus Prime, Maximize!", likely a sign of how late in the design process the decision to move away from the Beast Era was. (2001)

505
a frame from the Transformers episode of "The Toys That Made Us". (2018)
506
Optimus lifts an entire oil tanker. (1984)
507
Ultra Magnus' original storyboarded death scene from the 1986 movie. This scene was altered in the final film, presumably due to it being too graphic.
Note how the storyboards better match the audio than what is shown in the final movie.
508
unused concept for the three Arcee siblings' combined form. (2009)
509
the way Optimus stands in this picture is literally the most thug-gangster ass-shit like holy hell it's so badass twitter.com/tfwiki/status/…

wouldn't be the first time they tried to pull something like this, as strange as it is twitter.com/ROTBTrailer/st…

Charlie Adler reprised his role as Movie Starscream in the tie-in games for ROTF, but did so with a much deeper voice than the one used in the movie.
Contrasted against Frank Welker's Megatron, this results in a Starscream who has a much deeper voice than Megatron. (2009)
512
planned, unproduced concepts for BotCon 2017 exclusive figures. (2017)
513
In "The Secret Of Omega Supreme", Omega displays uncharacteristic eloquence, due to writer David Wise being unaware of his speech pattern and scripting the episode with normal dialogue. Hence, the editors inserted Optimus' request for Omega to "talk like a normal Autobot". (1985)
514
the Space Mini-Con team go undercover. (2003)
515
Skywarp killed half the population of Beijing.
Or at least, he claimed to. (2009)
516
Ratchet socks the shit out of Starscream. (1990)
517
the Cyberverse cartoon throws in a shout-out to many prominent online TF fans by writing their names in Cybertronix. (2021)
518
the Amazon Wreckers version of Legacy Bulkhead comes with Prime Breakdown's hammer, implying that Nulkhead defeated his rival and took his weapon. (2022)
520
Prime Weaponizer Optimus was inexplicably re-released in green as "Beast Tracker Optimus Prime" in the Beast Hunters line, even though Optimus had already upgraded to a new body.
Apparently the green colour is due to a Hasbro designer who REALLY wanted a green Optimus. (2013)
521
the ROTF Movie Universe guidebook and the comic adaptation state that Megatron is a Triple Changer that alternates between his robot, jet, and tank modes, but there is nothing to support this in the movie, where he simply turns into a flying tank. (2009)
522
budget cuts resulted in toys of characters who should have been silver being rendered in a dull grey instead. (2011-2012)
523
the Costco-exclusive version of Armada Optimus and Overload. (2004)
524
the Headmasters anime strangely depicts the Autobots as needing to work out, even though they're..y'know, robots. (1987)
525
for their BotCon 2013 toy reveal panel, Hasbro decided to be real snarky in their presentation slides for the Beast Hunters toys.
