Type the page as if it is written like the writer's makeshift, but he's pretending he's not

[edit]Should Wheeljack's toy be listed here?192.249.47.177 12:49, 27 February 2012 (EST)
- No. It's a Wheeljack toy. Motormaster's toy isn't listed on Optimus Prime's page in spite of Masquerade. --Detour 13:01, 27 February 2012 (EST)
- Okay. For future reference, where is the line between stuff like Masquerade (and Makeshift) and stuff like Longarm Prime? I don't quite get how we decide when something counts as repurposed or not.192.249.47.177 13:58, 27 February 2012 (EST)
- The Shockwave toy had his Longarm forms built into it. And, Makeshift taking Wheeljack's form wasn't a repurposing because he was also taking Wheeljack's identity too. Repurposed figures gain new identities upon being repurposed, whereas Makeshift tried to pass himself off as the genuine article, just as Optimus and the other autobots tried to do in Masquerade. --Sabrblade 14:35, 27 February 2012 (EST)
- Cool cool cool. Thanks for humoring my questions!192.249.47.177 15:11, 27 February 2012 (EST)
