Pete's Robot Convention Items

Should we mention every one of it's items on their respective character pages's (included toy pages) note sections? FigureGunplaFan (talk) 13:38, 24 June 2017 (EDT)

unsavory aspects

should we add something about the type of person he is?--Kitsune1 (talk) 23:29, 22 July 2020 (EDT)

I mean, the mainpic caption is right there. -- Cyberlink420 (talk) 00:33, 23 July 2020 (EDT)
That doesn't add any info beyond "he's a douche," and considering everything I think some elaboration would be useful. Voxel 23:20, 14 August 2020 (EDT)
Considering the sheer number of fans gone official, and how so many of them have long and public internet histories, this wiki has erred on the side of not dwelling on their Internet fights, except if they have actually defrauded customers / staff. His unsavory aspects are off-topic. --Thylacine 2000 (talk) 23:28, 14 August 2020 (EDT)
Didn't he actually scam people with badly painted toys he claimed to be legit? That seems like "defrauding customers" to me. Voxel (talk) 13:24, 13 September 2020 (EDT)

{Pete Sinclair is widely disliked in the modern transformers fandom for his reactionary tendencies, often tweeting or liking conservative posts on any account he has access too. This includes the former, officially Hasbro affiliated, BotCon's twitter account, where he liked several highly inflammatory posts. Pete Sinclair would later go on to harass members of the transformers fandom who opposed the New BotCon's affiliation with him. In May 2021, Pete would encourage people to "go live their life", ignoring COVID 19 lockdown provisions as "The strains are NEVER going away, Just like the flu. You will have to get shots for the rest of your life and even then it's far from a guarantee"}
