			I know this discussion was years ago but it's been bugging me for years before that. Why is that we don't have the Hasbro release of Roadblock here? The Roadblock page clearly says it represents both characters and the show explicitly has Inferno call himself Roadblock. Is there any reason we don't just put it on both pages with a note on each about the fact?--[[User:BlackStarscream\|BlackStarscream]] ([[User talk:BlackStarscream\|talk]]) 14:07, 15 August 2015 (EDT)
