Talk:Haywire (Targetmaster)

Hyperfire = Haywire?

Soooo, Titans Return Hyperfire looks nothing like Haywire (he's based on Stylor design-wise), has an entirely different nature/backstory than Haywire, transforms into something different, and obviously has a different name. Is the only reason we're considering them "the same guy" because he's a small toy figure partnered with Blurr? Is that enough reason? I kinda feel like he might rate a separate page. Thoughts? --ZacWilliam (talk) 16:18, 28 July 2016 (EDT)

I think the name is pretty obviously "We couldn't get Haywire, so here's something close enough". Hyperfire is Haywire like how TR Fracas is Targetmaster Fracas. Saix (talk) 16:21, 28 July 2016 (EDT)

Also, early packaged samples we saw at cons even mistakenly used the name Haywire in the bio. Jalaguy (talk) 16:23, 28 July 2016 (EDT)

Fair enough, if that's good enough for folks it's not a big deal. I just kinda think that if the end result released is a bot that doesn't look like Haywire, doesn't have the backstory/profile of Haywire, doesn't transform into or have the same powers as Haywire, and isn't named Haywire there's not too much reason to decide he's Haywire. Other than the precident of other existing partners being reused of course. Shrug. --ZacWilliam (talk) 16:31, 28 July 2016 (EDT)
