Line 17:
* [[Deadpan Snarker]]: Everyone, to a certain degree, but Ratchet, Drift, and Cyclonus especially.
* [[Deconstruction]]: See [[Meaningful Name]] below, but also transforming itself. The series shows how it integrates into culture, how some bots die in their preferred forms, how it can be addicting, how some altmodes can considered embarrassing or to say negative things about a person's history or personality, and how it's vital to how the Transformers live, instead of being just a gimmick to sell toys or used only for disguise. The biggest example was {{spoiler|the crisis on Delphi, where bots' organ's liquefy and come out their optics, thus crying themselves to death, via a sonic-based disease that activates only when they transform.}}
* [[Distressed Dude in Distress]]: Rung is pretty much the exact wrong combination of [[Non-Action Guy]], [[Weirdness Magnet]], and [[Chew Toy]]. There's even a scene of [http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m1rykyKXkC1rr1haro1_1280.jpg Skids saving him from certain death and carrying him around afterwards in a manner visually similar to that of a swashbuckling action hero carting around a rescued love interest].
* [[Evil All Along]]: {{spoiler|Pharma had been killing patients, and sold out Delphi, creating the virus as part of the selling out. Subverted with Ambulon, who was a Decepticon, but defected, and didn't start the virus despite suspicions.}}
* [[Expy]]: The Sparkeater is one to the eponymous monster from the ''[[Alien (franchise)|Alien]]'' series.
