Should the toy names be listed according to the English text that identified them (e.g. Deszaras for Deathsaurus)? We could always set up some redirects. -Neb 09:12, 05 December 2007 (UTC)

No. English text on Japanese products are notorious for being incredibly poor Romanizations. They don't care if it's accurate, English just "looks cool". --M Sipher 14:52, 5 December 2007 (UTC)
I'm not sure if we should be in the business of correcting perceived fuck-ups. Either way, Deszaras wasn't meant to make sense in the first place. Interrobang 16:23, 5 December 2007 (UTC)
I'm sure we shouldn't be in the business of propegating fuck-ups. --M Sipher 16:55, 5 December 2007 (UTC)
Those fuck-ups are official, whether we like it or not. I just don't like the idea of enforcing our preference over official sources. Yes, the romanization guys are idiots. But I see no problem in showcasing this instead of covering up for them. Interrobang 23:45, 5 December 2007 (UTC)
I have no problem with giving toys their terrible names on the toyline page. They should redirect to their real names, however. --ItsWalky 23:56, 5 December 2007 (UTC)

Godmaster Supreme Commander...?

I don't have the Victory Saber giftset, so I need to ask before goofing something up: Was he somewhere listed as the Godmaster Supreme Commander as opposed to the Brainmaster or - more generically - the Cybertron Supreme Commander? Check your box flaps!
