Talk:Transformers: Universe (2003 franchise)
Universe "2" how do we handle it.
The first pictures of toys in the new "Universe" line packaging have started to show up so I thought it was a good point to ask how we want to handle that line. The old Botcon tied Universe line kind of ended a year or two back now but we've had a few entries still trickling out in that packaging (to clearence storres like Big Lots). I've still been considering those part of the old line even though the main line and fiction had ended.
Now this new Universe banner begins. Is it a seperate thing or a new phase of the old? DO we consider it a continuation of the old Universe franchise even though that's basically been defunct and its a fresh start that "fictionally" will be totally divorced from that line, serveing rather as a blanket label for any non-Animated release regardless of continuity/story matters? Or does the "new start" make it a new franchise necessitating its own page/label. --ZacWilliam 12:52, 6 January 2008 (UTC)
- Maybe we could use something like "Universe (2008)" for the new Universe line? Hm. --TX55 15:12, 6 January 2008 (UTC)
- Keeping it in the same place would, in some ways, be simpler... but it would much up a lot of fiction ideas, especially things like the Universe characters category. Giving it a new name with a parenthetical will also much things up, because we use franchise names to disambiguate character articles. I'd rather not have an article called, for example, "Prowl (Universe (2008))". So... I'm not sure. --Steve-o 16:05, 6 January 2008 (UTC)
