Deluxe?
[edit]Should the disambig-parenthetical really say "Deluxe"? He's composed of deluxes, but what size-class is he? - Jackpot 21:54, 31 May 2008 (UTC)
- He doesn't have one. The one time Hasbro sold all 4 as a set was the Walmart exclusive set which didn't have a size class. The four deluxes would add up to Supreme Class (Universe used BW price points), but that is entirely unofficial. Personally, I think this page should be at Constructicon Devastator (Ultra), as the team was devided into two Ultra Class boxes.--FortMax 23:00, 31 May 2008 (UTC)
- Hm. I noticed that the original titles for him and his components had said "ultra," but that was changed to "deluxe" without any discussion that I can find. The key point, as near as I can figure, is whether size-classes are about packaging or about the toys themselves. If it's just packaging, then yeah, the size of the toys is irrelevant, and we should label according to the box they came in. - Jackpot 01:19, 1 June 2008 (UTC)
- Officially, only the original RID releases of the Build Tram molds are Deluxes. The Universe redecoes may be Deluxe sized, but they aren't actually Deluxes unless they are sold as such. --FortMax 03:18, 1 June 2008 (UTC)
- Because any given class isn't the size of a toy; it's the size of a package. Especially in this case, where the toys were designed for the Japanese market with no particular regard for Hasbro's packaging schema. Okay. Seems like a clear-cut case to revert the article names, then. - Jackpot 03:34, 1 June 2008 (UTC)

Components
[edit]I'm really not sure what to do about the components of this guy. Especially since there already is a RID Scavenger (who's probably a different guy) and a RID Hightower, who may be the same guy. Help?--Giggidy (talk) 18:27, 30 July 2015 (EDT)
