Low Armor Class?

low armor class
It used to be that in D&D low armor class was good, but for the past few years high armor class has been good. Either I don't get this joke, or it's out of date. JW 14:09, 28 September 2007 (UTC)

As an 80's toy, low armor class is definitely what is aimed for...--Rosicrucian 15:20, 28 September 2007 (UTC)

Timelines / TransTech

Stylor is listed as Timelines for the "Timeless" story, but Rewind and Chromedome are listed as Transtech, and Treadshot is listed as Timeless. Should be consistent, at least. I vote for Timeless -- it's technically not a Transtech story / universe, it's the TransTechs looking in on a pocket Primax universe. --Xaaron (talk) 15:51, 25 March 2014 (EDT)

Earth Wars Stylor design development

Earth Wars Stylor looks very little like the Timelines TFSS 2.0 Stylor toy deco.

• 
  2012 Prime S.S.
• 
  2014 TFCC Stylor
• 
  2025 Earth Wars Stylor

The only commonality I see is the orange robot mode face and solid-black circular chest. Otherwise, Earth Wars Stylor matches Prime S.S. with the brighter shade of gray as the body, the shoulder blocks being the same color as the front-facing raised circles, the black ankle highlights with upward-pointing triangular points, the inner white eyeholes and borderlines on the chest insignia, the neck highlights behind the head in bird mode, and the red wingtips in bird mode. It seems to me the devs wanted to incorporate another Prime Arms Micron as they had already done 9 other times, but they didn't want a character whose name was spelled "S.S." like the Nazi organization, so they swapped in G1 Stylor's name and added a couple color highlights to break up S.S.'s mostly-boring toy deco.

I assert that Prime Stylor should be listed on this Stylor page at least as much as SG Octopunch is mentioned on G1 Octopunch's page as a major design influence. S.H.I.E.L.D. Agent 47 (talk) 23:47, 3 May 2026 (EDT)

Only problem is that S.S. is actually white but the images we have doesn't do it justice, one the one hand mentioning the resemblance in the notes of the template would be the best case, as for putting S.S. in Stylor's toy section....that I leave to the others. Also it's supposed to be a crossbow not a bird. PBChew18 (talk) 00:09, 4 May 2026 (EDT)

I don't understand why you think you are in conflict with me regarding Earth Wars Stylor's main hue. My point is that Earth Wars Stylor's colors. Gray or white, my point is that Earth Wars Stylor matches the S.S. toy's main hue almost directly, much better than Stylor's dull gray. S.H.I.E.L.D. Agent 47 (talk) 00:17, 4 May 2026 (EDT)

For the record I see your point, and if you want we could handle it the same we put the Hasbro release of the Armada Dark Saber in the Vorpal Saber's toys section due to the their Earth Wars appearance resembling that more than Takara's. PBChew18 (talk) 00:41, 4 May 2026 (EDT)
