Should it be "THE" Transformers to match the cartoon? Kinda nitpicky, but eh. Your friendly neighbourhood loof (talk) 16:13, 30 September 2020 (EDT)

the logo used on the toys' packaging don't have "the" from what i saw --notirishman (talk) 16:22, 30 September 2020 (EDT)

Should these be listed under toys, or merchandise on the target pages? It's currently dependent on which character you look at AkibaSilver (talk) 11:35, 10 May 2021 (EDT)

So here's the reason I've migrated all these (and all the links following them) over to merchandise - other non-transforming representations of Transforming characters (not specifically representing Action Masters) are under merch - not just small candy toy figures, but adult-targeted collectibles such as Revoltech and Flame Toys. Given how Generations has been more of an overarching catchall theme for all Hasbro's nostalgia targeted range, rather than one specific line of toys, I'd argue it's become more similar to a series title than anything else, and you don't call everything a toy just because it was released under, say, the Rescue Bots line. Therefore, it's merchandise. AkibaSilver (talk) 19:00, 21 May 2021 (EDT)
Sure but optimus has his whole own Generations page, first and only of its kind for the wiki, would be kinda weird to purposely omit a Transformers Generations toy from the page of purely generations toys bc it doesn't transform. Others sure --notsoalex (talk) 16:46, 23 May 2021 (EDT)
