Trivia

 * A Downsizer is someone who reduces company employee numbers, or removes assets, in order to make the company stronger.
 * They have a similar appearance to a Bean Counter, the only differences being that a Bean Counter is a Cashbot and a Downsizer is a Bossbot and that their face differ on close-up.
 * Downsizers appear to be one of the more generic Cogs as they appear in many art and advertisements.
 * Downsizers are the only cogs with three Signature Moves(Downsize, Sacked, and Pink Slip).
 * The phrase "Honey, I shrunk the toon" is a reference to the 1989 movie Honey I Shrunk the Kids.
 * Downsizers are weak to trap doors because they "always fall for things that go down."
 * On the back of this cogs trading card, it states that it hates tall toons especially, probably because it likes toons to be small.
 * Tall toons that are small probably don't anger the Downsizer so much as it says on the Trading Card.
 * The move Canned is supposed to be a signature move (as stated in the Toon News... for the Amused and the Downsizer trading card), but Corporate Raiders can also use it.
 * If Corporate Raiders could not use this move, Downsizers would be the only Cogs with only signature moves.
 * One of the Downsizer's starting phrases is similar to a toon phrase bought from the Cattlelog and a phrase use in the Demotion attack, "You're going down, clown."
 * In real life, being a Downsizer would basically be the opposite of being a Head Hunter.
