Soundwave considered a ''Transformers''-themed "My first is in..." riddle to be "constructive prose [...] worthy of great praise", likely because the answer was a Decepticon.{{listref|28}} Similarly, he considered a letter writer's brother to have the right idea in collecting Decepticon toys.{{listref|30}}

===[[Jocasta]]===
