Talk:Carmine Fanzone
Why is he in the supervillains category? --KilMichaelMcC 23:41, 22 August 2007 (UTC)
- He is clearly a Decepticon. >=(
- No, way, he's definitely a Predacon. You just can trust mustaches like that... Cyberlink420 00:42, 12 September 2007 (UTC)
Maybe he IS Moustache Man! D: -Hepathos 20:06, 1 October 2007 (UTC)
- Dr. Eggman's long lost cousin, perhaps? Or something more...wow, we really ARE desperate for new info on this guy. Cyberlink420 22:55, 1 October 2007 (UTC)
- I think you mean ROBOTNIk.
- No, I mean Eggman. He was always known as Eggman in Japan; the name Robotnik, as well as the belief that the games took place on "Mobius", was the result of American localization. Kind of like the whole "Optimus Prime vs. Convoy" scenario, except actually fixed by making one name universal...but we're getting off topic. Cyberlink420 04:27, 4 October 2007 (UTC)

- Obnoxious anonymous point: BOTH names are equally valid before and after the fix. Sonic was developed on both shores, and actually came out in the US first (by all of 3 days...). Also, unless they've fixed it more.. it was Dr. Ivo "Eggman" Robotnik. So. Everybody more or less wins. Kinda like the millions of equally canon G1s. 76.28.159.16

If he was related to Robotnik, then that would be kinda funny, considering how Fanzone is technophobe, Er, I mean hates machines....
Personally, I think he looks like Captain Stottlemeyer from Monk. --Criminallyinane 15:40, 9 February 2008 (UTC)
- personally I think he is a visual cue to the police chief in inspector gadget. Chief Quimby , Gontier in the original version.
- He's clearly inspired by the Chief Quimby. He has the mustache, the blue suit, and the "car destroyed" running-gag is similar to the "self-destruct message" running-gag.

family
[edit]Are we allowed to add that he has family. In Velocity he says in response to the gps's directions "If I need a backseat driver Ill call my mother-in-law." So that means he at least has a wife right? Proconix 17:00, 17 May 2008 (UTC)Proconix
- It had been established that he was married back in Total Meltdown, which we mention in the article, so it's kinda redundant. -- SFH 17:40, 17 May 2008 (UTC)
Character based on
[edit]While speaking to Derek J. Waytt at the Auto Assembly TF convention in Birmingham he said that Fanzone's look was based on "Inspector Grim" from the BBC sitcom "The Thin Blue Line" who is played by actor David Haig. should that be added to the article? 92.41.153.30 05:04, 17 August 2010 (EDT)
