Talk:Hot Shot (G1)
The other Hot Rod
In the Henkei!verse, what do they call the other Hot Rod? "Hot Rodimus", or maybe just "Rodimus" like Hasbro does? - Jackpot 14:41, 28 March 2009 (EDT)
- "Hot Rodimus". I've "translated" it into "Rodimus" when applicable, since that's the toy's name. —Interrobang 14:43, 28 March 2009 (EDT)
- Heh. Just as you were writing that, I answered my own question. Thanks, though! - Jackpot 14:45, 28 March 2009 (EDT)
(HH)
HH? Really? Why not just "Henkei?" --KilMichaelMcC 14:44, 28 March 2009 (EDT)
- Frankly, if we're abbreviating this, how about we give ourselves a typing break and abbreviate Shattered Glass to SG in article names? --ItsWalky 14:57, 28 March 2009 (EDT)
- I was wondering why we didn't do that, actually. —Interrobang 15:33, 28 March 2009 (EDT)
- Well, I think it's good to have parentheticals that are easily recognizable when readers are browsing through categories. Neither HH nor SG strike me as such. --KilMichaelMcC 19:06, 28 March 2009 (EDT)
- Agreein' with Kil, over here. - Chris McFeely 19:35, 28 March 2009 (EDT)
- Yyyyeah. I vote move to (Henkei). --M Sipher 20:22, 28 March 2009 (EDT)
- Sorry, Walky. (Henkei) as well. It's a heck lot easier to remember than (HH). --Lonegamer78 20:39, 28 March 2009 (EDT)
- Reminds me, [[Jolt (HH)]] should be Jolt (Henkei!) as well. --Lonegamer78 23:41, 28 March 2009 (EDT)
- Put me down for (Henkei) too. --Professor Icepick 21:18, 28 March 2009 (EDT)
- Henkei here too. For what it's worth. PS: Someone needs to put Hot Shot in G1 fiction so Hot Rod's name can be undisambiguated. It used to be totally awesome having my favorite character be the only one of that name on the wiki. Greg, Trent... any chance for his presence in Club prose fiction? --Detour 00:05, 29 March 2009 (EDT)

Still confused.
[edit:]Does this toy represent two Henkei! Henkei! Hot Rods? One in the UT and one in the Henkei continuity? Does the package say he's from Armada and the pack-in comic say he's from the Henkei continuity? - Starfield 17:24, 29 March 2009 (EDT)
- The Henkei toy does not reference Armada at all. The Universe toy does. This is the page about the Henkei toy only. --ItsWalky 17:27, 29 March 2009 (EDT)
G1 Hot Shot
Now, this page makes even more sense. Thanks for noting it (Drift 2).ACIDSTORM92 19:05, 23 September 2010 (EDT)
- How exactly did the page not make sense before? --Detour 19:12, 23 September 2010 (EDT)
Redundancy
While I find the whole "Alex Milne spites Walky" thing humorous, I also feel it's not important as a whole to the enigma that is Henkei Hot Rod or even Glit, for that matter. I'm not saying the information isn't useful! This site exists to preserve Transformers information, but since it's already stated in the notes for the issue, is it really necessary to parrot it here and on Glit's page? Same thing with Shockwave and Corey Burton being disappointed at how hiss voice in the commercial came out. It's on Corey Burton's page; does it need to be on Shockwave's too? If it doesn't bother anyone, I'd like to trim this trivia down to just being in the article for Drift #2 itself and same with Shockwave. Is that ok? --Rideonshootingstarxx 14:46, 30 September 2010 (EDT)
- I feel it should be explained on any page where the events are recorded. --Khajidha 15:03, 30 September 2010 (EDT)
- Is it really important here though? The explanation only reveals that the reason they died... has nothing to do with Hot Rod or Glit and everything to do with Hot Shot and SG Ravage. I think the trivia is certainly interesting to someone wanting to learn about the issue itself, but does it need mentioning on these characters pages? --Rideonshootingstarxx 23:27, 30 September 2010 (EDT)
