(3 out of 4 ain't bad!)
452
early character model for Galvatron.
Note his cannon colour, and how his head design looks more like Megatron wearing a hat. (1986)

At dusk, however, he is vengeance. He is the night. He...is...BATBOT!

the Micromasters are so tiny, they can fit into the palm of Optimus Prime's hand! (1990)

469
various IDW comics make the Knock Out/Breakdown ship from Prime canon. (2015-2022)
