Any chance we could have a sensible discussion about who that guy is rather than starting an edit war? The outcome will doubtless be we can't tell, though he is mainly with mini-bots, looks like the side of a scramble city style head and is clearly not Topspin.

I suspected he was a Nebulan that Delbo drew as a full-size guy, like Springer did so often in Headmasters, but upon comparing with their model sheets, no dice. I do think he must be someone, because you can tell when Delbo makes guys up, because they look nothing like Transformers. -LV 12:53, 27 May 2013 (EDT)

Lack of Decepticons?

[edit]

So, according to the notes, "Apart from the mode-locked and incommunicado Blast Off, this issue features no Decepticons." But then, the list of featured characters lists three other Decepticons as appearing here. So, do they not count, or...? -Ookalf (talk) 16:11, 10 April 2014 (EDT)

The adding of that note seems to predate the full character list being added. If it's wrong, it oughta be removed. --abates (talk) 16:52, 10 April 2014 (EDT)
