	So, both the recent Hasbro Springer Bios, that of the Voyager shown at Toy Fair 2013 and Kreon MC have gone on about how he prefers to work alone and not with others. Now maybe I'm wrong, (and please correct me if I am) but I don't remember that ever really being part of Springer's personality in any G1 media. I'm rather afraid that we planted this idea in Hasbro's head with our oblique Han Solo joke in his bio profile here. (They've certainly been inspired by us before, see Kreon Blast-Off). I'm just wondering, it's a real vague joke to begin with (I know, I wrote it originaly) and it's been weakened even more by subsequent edits. I kinda think we should edit and take that bit out in case we accidently did influence Springer's official bio in ways we didn't intend. Thoughts? --[[User:ZacWilliam\|ZacWilliam]] 10:21, 13 February 2013 (EST)		So, both the recent Hasbro Springer Bios, that of the Voyager shown at Toy Fair 2013 and Kreon MC have gone on about how he prefers to work alone and not with others.
