	::Man, you are really trying hard on this, and not doing a very good job of it. For one thing, those Megatrons are from different continuity families, making them completely different characters, each of which has an extremely long history to recount. You will notice that the G1 Megatron article DOES cover Megatron from the G1 cartoon, the G1 Marvel comic, the Dreamwave comic, and the IDW comic, but NOT from other continuity families. (Which is '''exactly''' the arrangement we have here, incidentally.) To claim that all Megatrons (from various families) are basically the same character and belong on the same page is frankly ridiculous. Even arguing that about the Prime's would be laughable, and the Primes are MUCH more similar to each other than the Megatrons are. You are correct that IDW Pretenders have many differences from other G1 Pretenders, but at the same time, there isn't all that much to say about ''any'' type of Pretender in comparison to what we can say about a typical character. Additionally, discussion of Pretenders IN GENERAL is greatly enhanced by including all of them in a single article to point out their similarities and differences. If they were split into multiple articles, this comparison would become both awkward and necessarily redundant across multiple pages. We have other articles about topics that span even multiple families, such as [[Vector Sigma]], in cases where the discussion doesn't become overly-long and a reporting about each incarnation on a single page is seen as valuable. If ''Transformers Animated'' or whatever decides to introduce a version of Pretenders, I would probably prefer to see them discussed here, despite the family difference, unless it was completely untenable for all these same reasons. It enriches the discussion and the reader to show how things have changed from one incarnation to another. The differences between the old and new Pretenders are minimal, and the current article can easily accomodate both with relatively minor rewrites, as we have already said. Again, I urge you, since you obviously care about the distinction, to FIX THE ARTICLE YOURSELF rather than complain about it. --[[User:Steve-o\|Steve-o]] 22:46, 19 July 2007 (UTC)		::Man, you are really trying hard on this, and not doing a very good job of it.

			:I think the thing with Kup was less a 'guy inside a shell' situation, and more that they were using the ''neurological'' aspect of Pretender technology to overcome compatibility issues. Rather than being wired up traditionally, Kup controlled his new body in the same way that a Pretender controlled their shell.
