Talk:Transformers Tribute
Is there anything in this article, including its very existence, that's not based on leaked and/or stolen material? --ItsWalky (talk) 23:46, 3 July 2017 (EDT)
- The Orion Pax and Optimus Prime appeared in the Taiwan Tf Expo. And the Leader Optimus Prime was found and bought by some people, so.... no?
Proof: 2 Pack- https://www.seibertron.com/transformers/news/videos-and-pictures-from-taiwan-tf-expo-2017-transformers-the-last-knight-generations-and-more/38785/ Leader Optimus- https://www.seibertron.com/transformers/news/transformers-tribute-2007-leader-class-optimus-prime/38791/
And if this information ever becomes official for sure, or you think the proof I presented is good, please put it back up.
Thank you very much. west james/notirishman 10:34, 4 July 2017 (EDT)
Movieverse
[edit]Is there really any reason to think this is anything other than a tenth-anniversary Movie Tribute line? The one set of non-movie toys (and they're WFC and G1, not just G1) are still in entirely movie-themed packaging. The description of Optimus is hypergeneric. I know this wiki loves to put everything on G1 pages, but I really feel like "all these toys are movieverse" is the most parsimonious explanation here. -LV (talk) 21:36, 17 September 2017 (EDT)
- Anyone? Convincing justification that the WFC and G1 toys in a movie-tribute box with a generic bio aren't movie toys? Before I change the page? -LV (talk) 12:38, 3 October 2017 (EDT)
- Just because they are released in a toyline primarily for Movieverse figures doesn't mean they are movieverse. Take a look at this. This 3 pack features a figures not from Movieverse, but put in the 2007 Movie toyline. We counted them as seperase from Movieverse Bumblebee because it wasn't obviously different. In Transformers Tribute, the G1 Optimus 2 pack is clearly not Movieverse. So it won't be part of Movieverse. -west james/notirishman (talk) 12:55, 3 October 2017 (EDT)
- .....that's because the whole point of that pack is that they're from different generations. This pack just shows a guy before and after the war. Escargon (talk) 13:13, 3 October 2017 (EDT)
- It's not a "G1 Optimus two-pack" because one of the toys is an Aligned mold. So that's not really a justification for acting like they're supposed to be G1 Optimuses. There have been non-movieverse molds as movieverse toys before - we just got some in the TLK Legions. -LV (talk) 14:02, 3 October 2017 (EDT)
- Fair enough, but in my opinion I believe we should keep it the way it is and wait until we get more information on the toyline as a whole. Especially because the toyline feels more like the Platinum Edition toyline, where it is just figurus for more than one continuity. -west james/notirishman (talk) 14:08, 3 October 2017 (EDT)
- The packaging has Movie Optimus on it, it's got a quote from Movie Optimus for his packaging bio, and everything else in the line is a Movie Is Ten Years Old deal. It's movie. --ItsWalky (talk) 14:32, 3 October 2017 (EDT)
- Yeah that is true... fair enough. -west james/notirishman (talk) 14:41, 3 October 2017 (EDT)
