: For your own personal collection, yes, but there's no official sanction for it. He's not like Slicer, who had both G1 and SG symbols, and appeared in fiction as both possible uses. --[[User:ItsWalky|ItsWalky]] 11:01, 12 June 2011 (EDT) | : For your own personal collection, yes, but there's no official sanction for it.

Botcon Precedent
I don't see why that info gets removed when misconceptions and myths get addressed on other pages. The explanations for the removal of the edit (especially the second one) don't make particular sense. Bluestreak's page addresses the blue Bluestreak rumor, Energon Starscream's page addresses the "Nightscream was a separate charachter" myth, Hotrod's toy page addresses the black Rodimus Convoy prototype being rumored to be an unreleased lucky draw figure, not to mention the popular beleif that Metrotitan is a zombie being mentioned on Metrotitan's page. Thus I don't see why the edit about the Botcon precedent is being removed--BlackStarscream 03:10, 7 June 2011 (EDT)
- Personally, I had never heard that rumor. Of course, I'm not very active in the fandom. The things you mentioned were widespread, long standing rumors/myths/misunderstandings. Maybe you just happened to encounter the one place that that BotCon rumor has been heard. --Khajidha 06:44, 7 June 2011 (EDT)
Repurposing
