Talk:Optimus Prime (G1)
I vote that we keep this article blank untill the last possible moment
This isn't a democracy, X-BoB. It's the Internet. You fail at wiki.
I think this article should be done as soon as possible. Because of, y'know its massive importance and stuff. BeastWarrior 08:12, 6 March 2006 (UTC)
Shouldn't we refeare to Optimus Prime as Convoy in the articles on the JPN shows?
Sentenial Prime shouldn't be in the first paragraphs, as he's not in all contuities JMO-X-BoB58
It warrants discussion - after all, he is the most powerful of the Go-Bots...
Dreamwave Continuity
The article says: "Optimus Prime started life as Optronix (Orion to his friends)"
Does anyone have an issue reference for this (the Orion part)? I admit that my DW knowledge isn't too great, but I don't recall this.--G.B. Blackrock 15:16, 20 April 2006 (UTC)
It's from the Keepers Trilogy. -Derik 17:03, 20 April 2006 (UTC)
- That explains it, then. I don't really consider the Keepers Trilogy as canon, never having bothered to read it. However, since it is official, it's appropriate here.--G.B. Blackrock 17:33, 20 April 2006 (UTC)
- Cannon's a touch call witht he Keepers Trilogy. The Optronix thing, for isntance, was originalyl drafter for Optimus Prime's MtMtE profile (IIRC) but the MTMTE thing was drasticly re-tooled midway through, and so it didn't make it intot he entry-- but apparently Scott Ciencen had access to a draft of it which he used for Prime's backstory.
- As for the Keepers Trilogy's overall continuity... it doesn't mesh any WORSE than the first Dreamwave mini-series. (Faint praise though that be.) Plus it made some definite motions to align itself mroe closely to the comcis co ntinuity at the endof the 3rd book. ...and if I remember my timeline right, Superion's head showed up in Anihilation before it would have been written into TF#0. -Derik 00:34, 21 April 2006 (UTC)
