Leave it to Dead Metal to have the word 'Pronz' in his signature.

I'm surprised all the purists aren't flipping out over her having her own number, but it makes sense..JelZe GoldRabbit wrote: So there's the retool that justifies the new number.
Road Rage is fairly seperate as far as fiction goes, so the fact that she's a different character, with (hopefully) a different, mouthplated face justifies her having her own number in the line.

Saddened that there still aren't any Decepticons, but also glad that that means I only need two figures this year

I think it has more to do with him being an exclusive. Exclusives always get designated with a letter, whether or not they're a new character. That's the bottom line. With that:
- New mold? New number.
- Straight redeco? Usually exclusive, so added letter (I'm discounting Frenzy and Rumble since they're a pair).
- Retool? New number if main line release, letter if exclusive.
Exhaust has proven that any character, no matter how obscure, is fair game for the main line.
*EDIT* Before anyone starts with MP-13B Soundblaster with Ratbat, consider Ratbat an exclusive accessory like G2 Bumble's jetpack.
