Talk:Bumblebee (Animated)

Always Ready to Shred

"He has a faceplate, which he can pull on during battles...despite the fact that he maintains that he's a repair bot, and not programmed for combat."

It's a welder's mask! You know, for welding and stuff.

Okay, fine. But, you know, it could be. --IMAGinES 13:27, 17 August 2007 (UTC)

It could also be a mask for errantly flung pies. --FFN 13:37, 17 August 2007 (UTC)

Maybe he's just shy... --Hepathos 17:49, 8 September 2007 (UTC)

Please see Help:Coming soon. Those toys aren't supposed to be released yet, so information gleamed from auctions of possibly-stolen copies of them should not be added to Teletraan I. --Sntint 21:03, 2 December 2007 (UTC)

The same can be said for Prowl (Animated) when that was updated MONTHS ago. There was some reluctance, but it was updated anyway. --invisiblemoose 11:16, 3 December 2007 (NZ)

Okay, it's been undone again. So why this but now Prowl? --invisiblemoose 11:30, 3 December 2007

Anti-Kibble?

Is there a word for things like Bumblebee's toy's fake car roof chest? Or Scourge (RID)'s fake truck window chest? Or Transmetal Megatron (BW)'s fake T-rex head chest? Where a Transformer's robot mode has obvious bits of its altmode on its chest or elsewhere, which are in fact not part of the toy's altmode? JW 17:58, 28 April 2008 (UTC)

I call it elbbik. G2 Hero Optimus has the truck-chest too. And G1 Powermaster Prime/Ginrai. The Actiomasters are pretty much 100% elbbik. - Semysane 23:33, 28 April 2008 (UTC)

Don't be a smartass. That's my job, and I take it very seriously :P - Semysane 09:06, 29 April 2008 (UTC)

"Though he has fake car roof kibble on his chest, it apparently works that way in the cartoon's transformation sequences too." Really? Could someone kindly direct me to an episode where this is clearly the case? JW 14:25, 30 April 2008 (UTC)
