Ramiro Vaca once said, that it was Manfred Trenz' idea to base the Turrican Main Titles and End Titles tunes on the Transformers soundtrack. Makes you wonder, how much of the whole Turrican idea was inspired by Transformers fandom. :)

Speaking of Turrican tunes: Stefan Hartwig's intro musics of Turrican 1 + 2 were originally made for the "X-ample Intro Architect". He told us that they used the tune in Turrican 1 without actually asking him for permission, or paying him any cash:

"Well, after the Turrican 1 game was nearly finished I was told that my work was also "onboard" and that it should be a honour for me to contribute something to the game. In fact I was a bit disappointed that no one had asked me before the game hit the market, but what do you want? - That's business and company policy and with Turrican 2 it went in a similar way."
