That sacon symble is diferent than the one seen in the movie, is it just an animation error? X-BoB58 20:43, 29 May 2006 (UTC)

I suspect the close-up in the movie is correct. Do you have a screencap of it? (My VCD is screwed up for the first several minutes of the BW2 movie.) -Derik 21:45, 29 May 2006 (UTC)

God Neptune

As Sipher noted in his update comment, they aren't Seacons and were never Seacons, so they shouldn't be listed under Seacon (BW). Again, as he noted, they were always referred to as God Neptune as a group. Also, Sipher isn't administration. This is stated for the benefit of X-Bob. --ItsWalky 22:38, 30 May 2006 (UTC)

Thier bio calls them Seacon Pirates http://www.bwtf.com/bws/toys/techspecs/scylle.shtml

Name: Scylle Beast Mode: Mechanical Squid Allegiance: Destron Sub Group: Seacon Pirate Function: Pirate scheme soldier

A female squid transformer. fond of display, proud woman. She feels love with Scuba at first sight. Name is pronounced "S-Kyu-Leh". Armed with Skelaser in mecha-beast-mode and Shi no Nage Kiss (Blowing Kiss of Death) in mecha-beast mode.

Uhhh, bwtf.com, as fine a site as it is, is not an official source of information....--G.B. Blackrock 22:58, 30 May 2006 (UTC)

He got that form a TFMag, he didn't write that himself, if he did it wouldn't have awful grammer, and this line. "*Special thanks to Takeuchi Shouichi for the God Neptune individual team member names and character descriptions, originally printed in Comic Bon Bon Magazine, August 1998."

I don't have that source, so I can't say, but it's entirely possible that "Seacon" was added during translation. And for the bajillionth time, please SIGN your statements, X-BoB!--G.B. Blackrock 23:59, 30 May 2006 (UTC)

The burden of proof is on people who insist they're called "Seacons", as I OWN the set, and the word "Seacon" isn't anywhere on their packaging or bio card. So even if, if you find a scan from a Japanese source material that calls them "Seacons", well, whoops, there's still no "Seacons" on the packaging. --M Sipher 01:45, 31 May 2006 (UTC)


Wait, you were refering to the toy this whole time!? X-BoB58 01:55, 31 May 2006 (UTC)

.......... --M Sipher 02:12, 31 May 2006 (UTC)

To whomever re-ordered the list of members alphabeticly- it was put in the order they were presented int he BW guidebook, which seems to reflect the group dynamics. (in other words, the relative order had meaning, which has now been discarded in favor of alphabetizing it.)

I'm putting it back. If you're that attached to alphabetical order, by all means revert it. -Derik 04:07, 31 May 2006 (UTC)

Thier Premere epesode was called "Space pirate Seacons" acourding to both BWTF.com and Bigbot.com, take that how you will. X-BoB58 20:01, 31 May 2006 (UTC)

Energon Piranhaking

The article says (in the toys section): The complete set of molds (all six members with all accessories) were slated to be released as an exclusive set during Energon as Piranhaking, but as of now remains unreleased.

I'm not sure that this is germane to this article. The Piranhaking toys were not (to the best of my knowledge) considered to be the "God Neptune" characters.--G.B. Blackrock 20:20, 31 May 2006 (UTC)


Correct, the Pirahnacons/TFU Seacons were drones like in Masterforce, but the Toy section isn't all about the characters. X-BoB58 20:55, 31 May 2006 (UTC)

The TFU Seacons were Drones? What? --KilMichaelMcC 21:01, 31 May 2006 (UTC)
He's referring to the Piranhacons from Universe #3, which for some reason a few people confuse with the Energon exclusive set. He's wrong. --ItsWalky 21:07, 31 May 2006 (UTC)


Mabie becuse they have the same names, and both have aquatic alt modes X-BoB58 21:22, 31 May 2006 (UTC)

Yes, X-Bob, I was there. You're wrong. --ItsWalky 21:50, 31 May 2006 (UTC)

So was I. X-BoB58 22:04, 31 May 2006 (UTC)

X-BoB, you seem to be overzealous and underinformed, as usual. But back to the question at hand. The addition of the Energon Seacons (also called Pirahnacons) seems to be an addition by MSipher, who I usually trust, but again, it does not appear appropriate for this article. Unless I see a reasonable defense (presumably by someone other than X-BoB), I'm thinking to delete that portion.--G.B. Blackrock 22:09, 31 May 2006 (UTC)

We tend to note all uses of a toy's mold in each guy's entry. For example, Strongarm's toy sections mentions his was used as Energon Strongarm and Timelines Fallback. What continuity they're from or what character they are is not the point of the exercise. --ItsWalky 22:15, 31 May 2006 (UTC)

In other words exactly what I said. just, er, um, more comprahendable and stuff
