Not sure if this is your purview or not, but I translated the cybertronian text on the torchbearers and figured someone might want to add it to their pages. (not confident enough to format it in an edit myself)

True, but sometimes it's fun to have a reminder of something we may have forgotten (which I had)

I missed that before, so it's neat to read about it. But...they rhyme. Like, they're Wheelie's relatives or something...

I get new toy joy so rarely. Last time was Superion. This is just poetic justice.

Good boy.
But y'know, it actually was Superion as a whole, back then. With Alpha Bravo as a highlight, of course.
Boy oh boy new toy incoming.

Remember this teaser for Victorion?
Look closely at the Groove mold component on her chest.
See the little bits of Cybertronian text on there? That's "Ancient Autobot".
On her left (our right) reads "far away", and on her right (our left) reads "never roam".
What do these words mean? Well, here's the full quote they come from:
"If Cybertron be your home, far away never roam. Hear my message, listen and fear. Danger comes, the end is near! Just like us, you soon will rust. All shall be turned to dust."
And here's where this quote comes from:
The G1 episode "Cosmic Rust".
Why is this relevant? Victorion hails from the Sea of RUST!
Plus, her sword's hilt is totally beetle-esque, like the Lightning Bug:
