	We have a note on the comic entry for Javelin's first 2019 appearance that her rifle is pretty clearly based on Vos- I think that first appearance, it's pretty literal. It changes a bit over her next few appearances, but again, the stock and rather distinct squared scope are still of the Vos design. I don't think it's inaccurate to say the toy's rifle is partially inspired by Vos. --[[User:Nu-Priest\|Nu-Priest]] ([[User talk:Nu-Priest\|talk]]) 13:31, 22 July 2023 (EDT)		We have a note on the comic entry for Javelin's first 2019 appearance that her rifle is pretty clearly based on Vos- I think that first appearance, it's pretty literal.

	:To add to this, Javelin's rifle - or rather, the main Autobot field/designated marksbot/sniper rifle we see in the IDW2 comics, has a distinct enough design from Vos's. the barrel ends with a pointed tip and it is generally much blockier as a weapon, and the circles on it of unknown purpose are patterned after the closeup on her rifle in IDW2, not Vos's design. Arcee and Sureshot also use the same rifle design but instead with different scope or even launcher attachments where Javelin's scope would be (Fate of Cybertron Sureshot uses yet another scope but we have to look at it and Javelin's carefully to decide if they're worth distinguishing). So while we can agree that Javelin's sniper rifle is partially from Vos (the stock, and some generalities about the shape minus a magazine and bipod), the toy iteration isn't necessarily drawing directly on Vos for material- the modularity of the rifle is something shown off in IDW2.		:To add to this, Javelin's rifle - or rather, the main Autobot field/designated marksbot/sniper rifle we see in the IDW2 comics, has a distinct enough design from Vos's. the barrel ends with a pointed tip and it is generally much blockier as a weapon, and the circles on it of unknown purpose are patterned after the closeup on her rifle in IDW2, not Vos's design.

We have a note on the comic entry for Javelin's first 2019 appearance that her rifle is pretty clearly based on Vos- I think that first appearance, it's pretty literal. It changes a bit over her next few appearances, but again, the stock and rather distinct squared scope are still of the Vos design. I don't think it's inaccurate to say the toy's rifle is partially inspired by Vos. --[[User:Nu-Priest|Nu-Priest]] ([[User talk:Nu-Priest|talk]]) 13:31, 22 July 2023 (EDT)
