Derik: Merge with Rollbar (ROTF)?

Merge with Rollbar (ROTF)?

New page

== Merge with Rollbar (ROTF)? ==

I really, '''really''' think [[Rollbar (RPM)]] is the same character as [[Rollbar (ROTF)]].
# The RPM toy is '''obviously''' intended to represent the [http://www.emopanda.com/tmp/tf2007_rollbar.jpg 2007 Game's Autobot "Payload" drone].
# That drone is, of course, the Autobot color-scheme for [[Payload]].
# [[Rollbar (ROTF)]] is 2009's Autobot recolor of Payload.
# The RPM toy (though based on Brawn) uses the name and colors that should evoke the 2007 game drone.

The RPM toy's personality isn't incompatible with the ROTF toy's... it just references the 'charge in' tactics of the game drone, and is in the drone colors. I maintain that is is only logical to say that these both represent '''one''' Rollbar. (Or at least-- Rollbar and [[Rolldbar (Drone)]], much like Swindle and his drones... the drone bios always painted them as == the 'parent' character.) -[[User:Derik|Derik]] 17:27, 14 December 2009 (EST)
