== Trivia==
It is said the reason that the colors of the two were swapped in the cartoon was due to a mistake, officially making FIBRIR the only ''true'' correct version. Still, fans are pretty persitent.


It is generally agreed that pointing out Rumble was actually ''purple'' in the original cartoon is not helpful.

Rumble and Frenzy. Or Frenzy and Rumble. Whatever.

FIBRIR stands for "Frenzy is blue, Rumble is red". Likewise, RIBFIR means "Rumble is blue, Frenzy is red". (The forms FIRRIB and RIRFIB are also known.)

The entire debate exists because "RIBFIR" in the American G1 cartoon, but "FIBRIR" in the toyline, comics, and the Japanese G1 dub (which simply switched who was who), and even the US cartoon bible.

Rumble and Frenzy have both had red and blue toys or merchandise.
