Talk:Phoenix (G1)

Should this be merged with a potential Cloudburst profile? The rest of Masterforce is pretty cut and dry with being entirely different characters, but the line's blurry with the Autobot and Decepticon Pretenders... --Monzo 09:22, 4 July 2006 (UTC)

...how is the line blurry? Cloudburst is an effete pacifist. Phoenix is a by-the-books jet-pilot. Landmine is a rough-and-tumble adventurer like Indiana Jones, Lander is a playboy fop comedy relief character. Waverider is essentialyl thr ONLY US Pretender to mention how he deals with the outo-fob-dy aspectys of beign in two places as a Pretender- something that doesn't exist in Masterforce.

Similar toys or no, the Cybertron pretenders are Robots that spent ~3000 years living among humans. They're coimpletely culturally assimilated, and they spend most of their time shrunk to human scale. Lander has sex with women. (Or at least those are all the indications.) The Autobot Pretenders OTOH, have different characterizations, different names, diffrent character moderls, different backstories, different attributes- and do not shrink to human size- the single most important thing to their Japanese coutnerparts histories.

So... no, they shouldn't be merged.

Hey, there's a BW Diver. So does MF's diver get a suffix, or does BW2 Diver? -Derik 01:24, 5 July 2006 (UTC)

They BOTH do. Diver (G1) and Diver (BW2). --M Sipher 01:53, 5 July 2006 (UTC)

Hih, i was wondering how that'd work. That seems sensible, given the circumstances, You have to change the old links when a name gets re-used, but (it seems) most re-used naems get re-used a LOT, so it won't be too bad. -Derik 01:55, 5 July 2006 (UTC)

Where does Phoenix live?

Is he from London? Does Lander live in London or New York? I'm not clear on this. I assume his uniform would tell me something- if I knew jack about military uniforms.

For some reason I always thought it was-

• Metalhawk - Japan
• Diver - California
• Lander - London
• Phoenix - Germany?

...but I have no confidence those last two are right. ...help? Somebody?
