G2 manga?

I... don't remember Rapido showing up in anything Japanese aside from Ichikawa's "Chronicles" doujin, which, you know, isn't official. --M Sipher 14:41, 13 December 2007 (UTC)

Rank

Check out his new Tech Specs, now he REALLY outranks everybody: Rank 10+ FTW. Can I or someone else add this up to the notes. please? Or do I have to wait, like the rest of the Club fiction? He is now oficially the Chuck Norris of Transformers!ACIDSTORM92 02:32, 2 July 2010 (EDT)

Altmode

Because nothing drives me crazy like shoehorning real-world makes onto made-up TF vehicle modes, let me put down in text here that I know the Quasar only lines up so well - but paperwork from the production of Rapido (specifically, early samples of his bio/card art) labels him as "Peugeot". -LV 14:11, 7 December 2010 (EST)

It doesn't line up because it isn't a Peugeot Quasar, it's a Peugeot Proxima. --Falcadore (talk) 15:48, 26 March 2021 (EDT)

Worth mentioning?

I'm unsure if i'm missing a stage in his transformation but is it worth mentioning that Rapido can barely see over his own car hood chest? Seem's moderately humourous for a rank of 10.

Also, he might be a Peugeot, but I think there's a very small resemblance to a Lancia Stratos in him as well. --Durge 14:41, 24 January 2011 (EST)

But it already mentions his hood problem in the last line of his toy writeup. --abates 15:01, 24 January 2011 (EST)

Rapido (disambiguation)

i'm pretty sure that "Rapido" was G1 Cliffjumper's name in Spanish or French or Italian or something, and i think there was at least one other G1 Minibot who was named "Rapido" in non-English-speaking markets. Does anyone know who the other Rapido is? Should there be a disambiguation page for these guys? Most importantly, using the example of Rapido (G2) and Rapido (Cliffjumper) and Rapido (_____), how do i search TFWiki for the third Rapido? http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Special:Search?search=Rapido redirects to http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Rapido with no mention of Cliffjumper or the other guy(s). Thanks for your help! 70.17.204.103 16:35, 15 February 2012 (EST)

Using google's site: operator to limit results to tfwiki, I found, on about the 4th or 5th page of search results that Windcharger also had Rapido listed as a French foreign name. Oddly, both he and Cliffjumper list the name as originating from Canada, though Cliffy has another name listed as well. I dunno what it all means but hopefully it's what you were looking for.--76.226.217.86 19:36, 5 May 2012 (EDT)
