Japanese Name

New page

==Japanese Name==
Where did the fact about GADEPU standing for Guardian/Defender/Protection coming from? I've never heard that, and have often wondered what the name stood for. (The Dark Guardians were called GADEPO, in comparison... but I don't know what that means either.) --[[User:Monzo|Monzo]] 08:06, 4 May 2008 (UTC)
:It's something I picked up years ago, probably in conversation with Makoto Ito ("Universe of Primacron"), since I seem to recall he was the first person I ever heard use the term. Unfortunately, it doesn't appear to have been codified anywhere online that I can find. I can ask around, but I've got a convention coming up, so not any time soon.--[[User:Apcog|Apcog]] 21:02, 28 May 2008 (UTC)

==Megaman==

That caption for the cartoon pic "megaman has really let himself go." has me in tears from laughter. That has got to be like THE FUNNIEST thing on this wiki.--[[User:Skyglide|Skyglide]] 19:39, 28 May 2008 (UTC)

Shouldn't the main article title be Guardian Robot, rather than Guardian Robots? --[[User:Monzo|Monzo]] 21:21, 26 October 2006 (UTC)

Hello!
Isn't the discription talking about the Guardian as seen in the G1 animated continuity only? The Guardian as seen in the Marvel comics continuity is very much different. I suggest to put the description as being in the animated continuity only, and add a decription for the comics version. I would even offer to edit this entry if I'll be allowed to.

:: The "Guardian Robots" was specifically the name of the group from the Animated series. They're what this article is about. The Guardian droid thing from the comics *is* totally different and belongs in its own article not this one (with maybe a diasambig here).

::As for editing, this is a Wiki after all, the whole point is that *anyone* can and should edit, so feel free. If there's a problem, folks will edit it back.
