Notes
[edit]
- Headcannon is based on the mecha toy Bonaparte Tulcas [sic] (ボナパルトタルカス) from Takatoku Toys' Special Armored Battalion Dorvack line, which Hasbro originally planned to license as a Deluxe Vehicle for 1985 The Transformers line,[1] along with fellow Dorvack figures "Mugen Calibur" and "Ovelon Gazzette". [sic] These latter two became Roadbuster and Whirl respectively, but Bonaparte Tulcas was ultimately excluded from Transformers, perhaps due to its unconvincing robot mode.
- At the BotCon 2014 "From Japan with Love" panel, a proposed name for this character was given as Landfire.
- A configuration based on Bonaparte Tulcas is seen as an alternate form for Tankor in "LG03 Tankor".
- Headcannon's name, given via the Facebook edition of Ask Vector Prime, is a pun on "head canon", a synonym for personal canon.
