Talk:Transformers: Wild King

Optimus/Megatron

Is there a particularly compelling reason to treat these two as not just their "G1" selves, given Takara's penchant for rolling everything small into one kinda ur-G1 continuity soup? I'm not like stringently opposed to new, but still. Doesn't feel like we got a lot to make a good "separate" call here (other than "well their G1 pages are all very big" which well, kinda feels like spitting on the ocean at this point). --M Sipher (talk) 20:42, 27 March 2025 (EDT)

Uh, TT not saying so I guess and maybe "End of G1 Universe"->TT is finally letting JG1 rest in the name of brand unity (which seems to also be getting undone slightly so...)?Poliwag06 (talk) 21:18, 27 March 2025 (EDT)

The backstory given of Optimus and Megatron being allies seems more directly influenced by EarthSpark than G1. Japanese kids just got off ES, so it makes sense that WK is at least a vague spiritual sequel to it. I still think it's easier to just have them separate for now.
