So, Generations "Darkmount" was at ToyFair? I can't find any mention of him outside this wiki. ---Blackout- 07:39, 14 February 2010 (EST)

Approximately half the sites call him "Darkhead" for some reason. Pictures be floating about, even though people were asked not to take them. --Monzo 07:44, 14 February 2010 (EST)
Thanks. ---Blackout- 07:46, 14 February 2010 (EST)
FWIW, we were only asked not to take them so as not to flash in the eyes of the presenters, not because anything was a secret; Hasbro said all the pics were going to be given to us anyway. It turned out Straxus' pics had come in from the shop too last-minute to have been added to the press kits. So, good on the shutterbugs. --Thylacine 2000 04:53, 15 February 2010 (EST)

"Tank" vs "Self-Propelled Gun"

I realize there's probably a 99% chance his card copy will say "tank" regardless, but it would be more in-keeping with the character history if he's actually a self-propelled gun? I'll probably add a note to that extent soon. Is there ANY way for us to get official confirmation in advance? For some reason I'm really fixating on this, I even directed the toy pics to a military hobbyist site to see if they could nail down the make and model of the vehicle mode. --Thylacine 2000 04:53, 15 February 2010 (EST)
