Trivia

• Unlike 7148 Meltdown and 7157 Thunder, which have their Meteor Blasters placed on their left forearms horizontally, Rotor's Meteor Blaster is placed vertically.
• Rotor's legs are built the same way as Bionicle's large sets in 2006-2009.
• Rotor's blades are the same as Tuma's sword and the Cendox V1's blades from Bionicle 2001-2010/Generation 1.
• The Biohazard Gas Shooter has a silver piece that is the same as the Av-Matoran sets' from Bionicle G1.
• Unlike Hero Factory's sets in 2010-2012 and Bionicle's 2009 and 2010 sets that have Glatorian heads that wear helmets, Rotor's helmet and Vapor's helmet from 7179 Bulk & Vapour do not have eye holes.
• In Rotor's prototype set, he has silver shoulder armor and silver Meteor Blaster, and does not have orange tubes. The television episodes depict Rotor as this.
