Talk:Pyro (G1)
I know it's a really small thing but I disagree with the Captain Carrot caption. Captain Carrot is what we THOUGHT Pyro was like from the first issue of Wreckers, a young eager wide-eyed innocent Prime-ish good guy... but subsiquent issues have shown us that he's very much NOT that robot. He's actually a selfish immature poser who wants to be a Carrot/Prime type but doesn't have the heroic nature, moral strength, or selflessness to pull it off. He wishes he were Captain Carrot. --76.28.76.206 11:55, 14 May 2010 (EDT)
Spark vs Pyro
Just a random weird thought. If Botcon gives Spark an entirely different personality than Wreckers Pyro (and they probably will) then it raises the question for me whether they should be split into seperate pages. Yes they still share the same toy, but so do LOTS of characters that have the same toy and even the same deco of that toy. The fact is they will have been released with entirely different names and each have entirely different personas. That seems a good (though weird) case for seperation IMO. --76.28.76.206 14:37, 14 May 2010 (EDT)
- They may have different names, but both Pyro and Spark share the same tech specs and bio. --ItsWalky 13:31, 27 May 2010 (EDT)
- One word. "Shockwave". --M Sipher 15:18, 27 May 2010 (EDT)
- Another word. "Blaster". --Detour 15:52, 27 May 2010 (EDT)
- Just for the sake of the argument, though, if the Marvel version of the character was called "Shockblast" and the Sunbow version was called "Shockwave", we might consider them two separate characters. Isn't that basically what happens with Masterforce? Different names plus different personalities/origins = different characters?--Jimsorenson 15:56, 27 May 2010 (EDT)
- There is Skyfire/Jetfire. Masterforce was different in pretty much everything. Completely different gimmick mechanics being a major one. I don't think there is much of anything to tie the characters together. East and West did their own thing. I am amused though, that for the most part the crazy English-Malay dub uses the Hasbro names for the most part. - Starfield 16:08, 27 May 2010 (EDT)
- One character named Spark that gets two totally different portrayles (Walky's examples) is one thing. But one character named Pyro who gets one portrayle in Wreckers, and another named Spark who gets a totally different personality/bio in Fun Pub and they mearly happen to share a toy... I can see the argument. Yes, it's a bit obtuse in logic, but it does make a certain sense. The different names and different fictional portrails put it just to the line of "different enough for a new page" for me. Your milage may vary.--ZacWilliam 16:35, 27 May 2010 (EDT)
