In September 2008 pictures of a mold for an unnamed Legends class toy similar to Incinerator appeared online. In December 2008 images of a boxed Springer toy from Revenge of the Fallen appeared on the internet.
The original script for the movie was to have Springer in it along with Depth Charge and Breakaway and concept art was even created for him. However, after many revisions to the script, Springer was cut out of the movie all together along with Depth Charge & Breakaway due to the writer strike. Concept art was also created for him, although he survived in both his Legends and Robot Heroes toys.
His alternate mode seems to be similar to that of the Decepticon Incinerator, only with an extra blade in each rotor.
Note: As a toy he's called "Autobot Springer", possibly for trademark purposes.

Famous quotes containing the words revenge and/or fallen:
“I cant tell you what art does and how it does it, but I know that often art has judged the judges, pleaded revenge to the innocent and shown to the future what the past suffered, so that it has never been forgotten.... Art, when it functions like this, becomes a meeting-place of the invisible, the irreducible, the enduring, guts, and honour.”
—John Berger (b. 1926)
“Union of the weakest develops strength
Not wisdom. Can all men, together, avenge
One of the leaves that have fallen in autumn?
But the wise man avenges by building his city in snow.”
—Wallace Stevens (18791955)
