TheHoodedTeddy13: /* Alt Mode identity */ just a joke

I'm always cool with learning a neat new fact about a character I like, but don't just add in something like "and occasionally a Decepticon" without adding explanation of where and how too, that's just teasing. :) [[User:ZacWilliam|ZacWilliam]]
: I'm not sure where that's from either.--[[User:ItsWalky|ItsWalky]] 15:28, 28 September 2006 (UTC)
:...shit, i was thinking of Repugnus. -[[User:Derik|Derik]] 15:28, 28 September 2006 (UTC)
::When is he sometimes a Decepticon? --[[User:ItsWalky|ItsWalky]] 15:28, 28 September 2006 (UTC)

::::Repugnus or Grotesque? -[[User:Derik|Derik]] 15:29, 28 September 2006 (UTC)
Have we just decided that his intro paragraph isn't going to mention that he was one of Starscream's TWW Predacons? That's where the "former Decepticon" thing comes from, as per his Dreamwave section and the TWW Predacon page. -[[User:LV|LV]] 10:33, 29 March 2011 (EDT)

== Alt Mode identity ==
Currently the text describes Grotusque as transforming into a "robotic winged sabertooth tiger". Based on the look this has with his hunched posture, especially considering his name, I'm more inclined to assume he turns into a ''grotesque''- [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grotesque#In_architecture|also called a gargoyle]]. I'm going to go ahead and change it, but if there's some source that contradicts this, feel free to switch it back. [[User:Ayellowbirds|Ayellowbirds]] 17:22, 2 September 2009 (EDT)
:That makes a large amount of sense. Works for me. -- [[User:Repowers|Repowers]] 17:35, 2 September 2009 (EDT)
:I don't think his monster mode has any canonical title except "monster" or "creature." However, his name conveys "grotesque" in the sense of being "ugly and horrible" as opposed to the sense of being... a stone-carved monster statue thing. Likewise, Repugnus sounds like "repulsive" in the, well, "ugly and horrible" sense, as opposed to the original Latin roots of simply pushing something backwards. Given the extreme obscurity of the latter definition, and the fact that the Wikipedia article specifically says grotesque-statues were not the same thing as gargoyles, I'm going to switch it back but include the statue mention as a "note." I hope that's okay. --[[User:Thylacine 2000|Thylacine 2000]] 17:38, 2 September 2009 (EDT)
:I always called him a winged space gopher, personally. [[User:TheHoodedTeddy13|TheHoodedTeddy13]] ([[User talk:TheHoodedTeddy13|talk]]) 20:55, 13 September 2020 (EDT)

== Mistransformation ==

I think a picture of the mistransformation would be beneficial to this page. Besides, wasn't the toy shown in that form in the original catalogs? --[[User:Khajidha|Khajidha]] 08:08, 12 November 2010 (EST)

== Color corect toy pic? ==

Our toy pic here is Way brighter and also way pinker than the actual toy. (Someone called him pink on alspark and I think this misleading pic might be why.) His toy is really more a darkish maroony-red. Would it be acceptable to use photoshop to try and "color correct" the pic closer to the actual toy? --[[Special:Contributions/76.28.76.206|76.28.76.206]] 08:13, 29 March 2011 (EDT)
:I think it'd be better to retake the photo. --[[User:Khajidha|Khajidha]] 08:30, 29 March 2011 (EDT)
::Grotusque is pretty pink, albeit maybe a little less pink than seen here. If yours is a dark maroon, he's probably yellowed. That happened to a bunch of my Sparkstalkers. -[[User:LV|LV]] 09:45, 29 March 2011 (EDT)

TheHoodedTeddy13: Reply, and slightly offtopic question

First time writing anything on this site, so if my formatting is wrong, let me know. I won’t edit the actual page until I get feedback on the idea of course. I think it might be funny to add a picture of a screencap of the moment in Seige where you see Soundwave is using his special programs to spoof Ultra Magnus’s voice, because that is a character voiced by Edward Bosco mimicking a character also voiced by Edward Bosco. Thoughts on this? {{unsigned|TheHoodedTeddy13}}
:How would you be able to even tell that's what the image is of? The joke doesn't work without accompanying audio. Besides, the only image that really needs to be on actor pages is a photo of the actor themselves. -- [[User:Cyberlink420|Cyberlink420]] ([[User talk:Cyberlink420|talk]]) 17:11, 9 September 2020 (EDT)
::It’s a picture of soundwave with an audiowave thing on his chest accompanied by a picture of magnus on the corner of his chest. But yeah, I get what you mean. Just a thought, maybe I’ll suggest it on the page for that episode or something. Also, offtopic, but how do I set up a signature thing like that?
