Talk:Real Gear Robot

Do we have a reason to consider Toaster a RGR? Chip 14:29, 12 June 2007 (UTC)
- Do you know which Toaster I'm talking about?
- He's the prototypical 'animated by the Allspark' Transformer. -Derik 14:53, 12 June 2007 (UTC)
Derik, the Chevy Autobots are not Real Gear Robots. RGRs are a throwback line to the Microchange toys put out in the first two years of Hasbro's Transformers line. Period. Full stop. --Rotty 17:03, 12 June 2007 (UTC)
- Also, I just noticed that the original Real Gear article is Real Gear Robots. The material here that isn't wrong so totally needs to be merged with that. -Rotty 17:08, 12 June 2007 (UTC)
- I am of two minds on this. Fictionally speaking, Real Gear Robots are ordinary Earth machines brought to life by the power of the Allspark. Period. Full stop. However, Real Gear Robots also being the name of a toyline with the specific attributes Rotty notes, applying that term across the board to other examples, or possible examples, of this phenomenon does seem a bit iffy. Hmmmm. I think I would probably lean towards coming up with a different title for this article rather than to merge it with the toyline article. --KilMichaelMcC 17:30, 12 June 2007 (UTC)
