* IndyPloy: Misfire's remarkable ability to bluff his way into/out of trouble and thnk fast on his feet means he can come up with plans that, while stupid at face value, are still clever enough to get the Scavengers out of trouble. It also means he ''instantly'' makes friends Swerve, who also tends to blather at length and makes a lot of things up as he goes.

* {{Foil}}: To the Decepticon Justice Division. The DJD are the elite of the elite, a specially picked cropped of sadists and psychopaths, feared throughout the Decepticon ranks for their ferocity and overwhelming power. The Scavangers are, by classification, the worst of the worst, a gaggle of screw ups and misfits that eventually banded together because no one else would take them. But while the DJD may profess at being an elite unit, they're largely just deluded maniacs who have an overwhelming sense of self importance. Meanwhile, the Scavengers are able to band together as a true unit and overcome overwhelming odds.
** In addition, while the DJD profess to following the Decepticon code as a badge of honor, they quickly rewrite it when it no longer suits their purposes [[spoiler:after Megatron denounces Decepticonism in a galaxy wide broadcast]] to contniue their sadism. But for the Scavengers, the end of the war and Decepitconism allows them to become introspective and discover who they are without the overarching conflict guiding them.
** Taken to it's extremes by the end. The DJD's sadism and mania [[spoiler:causes them all to be slaughtered while being mocked by the leader they worshipped]], whereas the Scavengers [[spoiler:live on to for many years as a unit, and are warmly embraced by Megatron upon meeting them for the first time.]]
** In essence, the DJD represent the Decepticons at their worst. The Scavengers are the Decepticons at their best.
