Naming conventions

Aarrgghh. I wished I paid more attention to these guys' names BEFORE I saw the film. I'm not putting any spoilers in here, but this page will need an ACCURATE revision. If any editor is reading this, please try to track the Cosntructicons in the Movie, and how many there are. I'll not see the film again before its US release. There may be an arguement for putting ALL the contruction vehicle Decepticons in here Drmick 09:56, 21 June 2009 (EDT)

Army builders?

Well, i noticed that some constructicons appeared in three different locations at once sometimes, so i've gotten the idea that allot of them just share the same body frame, and are therefore great army builders. Anyone agrees?--Sunjumper 10:48, 24 June 2009 (EDT)

Well, they also share the same name, at least Rampage does. "Rampage" is a Devastator component (as shown in the toys and DK guidebook) and Rampage is the guy running around after Devastator is formed (as revealed in the film). - Starfield 10:53, 24 June 2009 (EDT)

Reorganization

I move that this page be re-organized by "model," and we just mark the ones that form Devastator with a .

It's the only way we're gonna make any headway in triaging the movie 'cons. -Derik 18:18, 25 June 2009 (EDT)

Didn't Overload form Devastator in the film? Shouldn't Scavenger be "orthodox"? - Starfield 23:08, 25 June 2009 (EDT)
Overload was part of the group of Constructicons who formed Devastator in the movies. SteamFan42 01:58, 26 June 2009 (EDT)
The constructicons issue needs addressed, both here and mentioned somewhere on the movie and toyline page. Don't we have two Rampages? The one that fought Bumblebee and the Devastator one? Can't we design a nomenclature system for them all? At least until it is addressed officially. Drmick 13:27, 1 July 2009 (EDT)

I'm a little confused by the table at the beginning of the article. Scavenger has a blue cross , which has no defined meaning in the key. The green cross is defined as a component of Devastator in the film, but the only character marked thusly is Devastator himself. Does this mean that we don't have names for any of the components of ROTF Devastator? If so, then maybe we should not have such a classification on this chart. Also, Scavenger is not marked. Wouldn't he be an orthodox Devastator unit? --Crockalley 10:02, 19 September 2009 (EDT)

TTK

Is there any confirmation that Trample, Tread and Kickback are constructicons? User:Eire 15.15 July 20 2009 (UTC)

Not explicitly. They could simply be Decepticons who took on construction-vehicle alternate modes when they came to Earth with the goal of bringing Megatron back to life. If they are not Constructicons, who is a Constructicon?
Seriously, it is a question that is bugging me a little. Who is explicitly named a Constructicon? Devastator is, in the toyline. The individual transformable toys aren't as far as I know. Is Devastator the only "Constructicon." Are the Devastator components Constructicons but not the duplicates running around? Is anyone with a construction vehicle alternate mode a Constructicon? This could use a little more documentation. - Starfield 10:50, 20 July 2009 (EDT)
I found one reference in the novel. The four Decepticons that accompanied Ravage and the Doctor underwater were called "Constructicons." - Starfield 11:17, 20 July 2009 (EDT)

"Cousins"

Should we mentioned Mixmaster and Long Haul's "cousins" just like Rampage's yellow cousins is mentioned on the member table? --TX55TALK 11:52, 29 August 2009 (EDT)

others

Is there any info about the constucticons with the saw and the crane in the gallery where the concept art of high tower and the little one?
