Which continuity would Aurex 602.0 Kappa be? Closest match I could find was Aurex 603.0 Kappa, the Energon Within online game. --Detour 15:30, 10 August 2011 (EDT)

Typo, sorry! —Interrobang 15:36, 10 August 2011 (EDT)
Ah. Given the stream is still a redlink, I wonder if it's worth pointing out his "continuity" of origin in the Notes. --Detour 15:42, 10 August 2011 (EDT)
Nevermind... --Detour 15:43, 10 August 2011 (EDT)

Origin

Looking at the Energon Within page, I'd say Ulchtar here appears to be one of the generic jets, thus his distinct resemblance to Armada Starscream despite appearing in an Armada continuity.Pirateblue (talk) 09:51, 8 June 2014 (EDT)

Merge?

Based on Spacewarp's description, it sounds like Ulchtar basically is Armada Starscream, just with a different name. Should we merge? --Giggidy (talk) 16:17, 28 November 2015 (EST)

I say leave it as is due to the fact that he's known under a different name and his involvement with the Combatibots --Crossblades (talk) 16:29, 28 November 2015 (EST)
Yeah, he's pretty clearly a counterpart to Starscream. I say merge. Also, I don't remember that picture showing up in the Almanac - it doesn't seem to be in my Complete Almanac, at any rate. It should probably be deleted if it isn't in there. --Riptide (talk) 17:25, 28 November 2015 (EST)
This is almost certainly the case. As for the picture itself, it comes from the Alt2day website, so it's not canon. Escargon (talk) 20:32, 28 November 2015 (EST)
So then it's not a valid picture? The picture's page says it comes from the DeviantArt page of Bill Forster, one of the Almanac's authors. And we use authors' online pictures for characters such as Proxima, Roadmaster, and the DJD. S.H.I.E.L.D. Agent 47 (talk) 20:51, 28 November 2015 (EST)
I've always been a little wary of using model sheets, etc since they aren't officially published material, but it's probably fine since they're official designs. This, though, is basically fan art; it hasn't been used in anything official. --Riptide (talk) 08:12, 29 November 2015 (EST)
47 has a good point about the eligibility of the picture. --Giggidy (talk) 21:48, 28 November 2015 (EST)
I think the difference here is that those designs are used in official comics. (Not really arguing one way or the other; I really don't care about the image or the fate this article.) Saix (talk) 21:50, 28 November 2015 (EST)

you guys why --ItsWalky (talk) 01:55, 29 November 2015 (EST)

I don't understand the suggestion. Should we merge this page with what? UT Starscream's page? When this isn't a UT character? Animated Starscream, when he's a different guy? Am I missing something? --KilMichaelMcC (talk) 02:05, 29 November 2015 (EST)

Ulchtar is explicitly from Aurex. What they're proposing is merging this with UT Starscream. Saix (talk) 03:31, 29 November 2015 (EST)
I wouldn't say I'm proposing it. It was just clear to me that Ulchtar is being used as a variant name for Starscream, sort of like Jazz/Meister, or Bluestreak/Silverstreak. I was attempting to grapple with the implications of that. --Giggidy (talk) 09:24, 29 November 2015 (EST)

Toys

Could some explain to me why its a problem for me to add a link here directly to UT Starscream toys section, especially when Ulchtar is clearly based on UT Starscream? Crossblades (talk) 20:41, 29 November 2015 (EST)
