Siph, I think you should nix the "Multi-property brands" category. Robot Heroes, Galactic Heroes, and Superhero Squad lack the unified brand name/logo of Hasbro's Attacktix, Built to Rule, and Titanium Series. They're three different lines just made for the same market, really. --Rotty 20:24, 9 June 2007 (UTC)

I disagree. It's true that there's not a unified brand name for them, but I think they are pretty clearly the same brand at least in spirit if not in practice. I imagine they are all designed by the same team at Hasbro, for example. If it bothers you, we could certainly include a note somewhere -- probably the Robot Heroes article -- that it's a little different than the others in the category. --Steve-o 00:49, 10 June 2007 (UTC)
I agree with everything Steve said. They have different names and nothing else-- if someone is trying to look up multi-property brands like Attacktix and Titaniums, it would be misinformative NOT to include the Robot Heroes. --Suki Brits 01:57, 10 June 2007 (UTC)
If the three lines actually are designed by the same team at Hasbro, then I think it wouldn't be inaccurate. Otherwise, they're only about as similar as the 3.75", realistic sculpts Star Wars and G.I. Joe lines. :) --Rotty 02:01, 10 June 2007 (UTC)
Following up: since it's so close to Botcon, I think I'll just ask while we're there if there's a Heroes/Superhero Squad design team and add the cat tag afterwards if so. --Rotty 03:56, 10 June 2007 (UTC)
They ALMOST all follow the same naming scheme for the series, which could be taken as sharing a name. One can hypothesize that "Superhero Squad" is named as such because "Superhero Heroes" sounds silly, but that doesn't answer why they weren't called "Comic Heroes" or "Marvel Heroes" or something similar. Just something to think about; no real point. I also agree with Steve. --Sntint 04:57, 10 June 2007 (UTC)
