Talk:Chromia (Cyberverse)

"Not set them up the bomb." Is this some sort of reference? Because it looks like illiterate blabbering. --Khajidha (talk) 16:01, 14 October 2018 (EDT)

I assume it's a Zero Wing (Someone set us up the bomb) reference combined with a reference to IDW Comics Chromia. --abates (talk) 16:19, 14 October 2018 (EDT)

The quote is technically "Somebody set up us the bomb", but yes, that's apparently the reference. -- Cyberlink420 (talk) 16:52, 14 October 2018 (EDT)

That's exactly it, yeah - I mentioned it in the edit summary last month when it came up, and I still feel shockingly old that apparently Zero Wing is sliding out of the popular zeigeist, meaning I should probably apply for my cane and rocking chair...anyway, yeah, it's referring to All your base are belong to us, specifically the first line of that memetically horrible original translation: "Somebody set us up the bomb!" Since IDW Chromia pretty much did exactly that, well... (And the variation from the direct quote is, of course, because Cyberverse Chromia hasn't. (Yet?).) - TBR (talk) 16:57, 14 October 2018 (EDT)

So long as my caption riffing on the Mighty Mouse theme holds the record for "reference no one will get because they are not old like me." --abates (talk) 19:23, 14 October 2018 (EDT)

Ah. See, when I first saw abates say it was from Zero Wing, I thought "oh, a Gundam ref, no wonder I don't get it". Now, I'm like "oh, a VIDEO GAME ref, no wonder I don't get it". It's not that the ref is too old, it's just from something I am completely oblivious to. --Khajidha (talk) 19:57, 14 October 2018 (EDT)

Oh, that's fair! And Mighty Mouse...that takes me back. But Danger Mouse was more my speed. - TBR (talk) 19:59, 14 October 2018 (EDT)

Can I trust this site?

Apparently this site has the rumored legacy united Cyberverse universe Chromia, [1], but something doesn't seem right about it to me. Is it worth considering as the toy being officially revealed? Poliwag06 (talk) 12:41, 14 March 2024 (EDT)
