Transformers names in other Hasbro lines
From MediaWiki
Over the years, a number of Transformers characters have shared their names with G.I. Joe characters and vehicles, primarily due to the fact that are both made by Hasbro in the US.
(Note: This list includes a few Takara Transformers characters as well, because why the hell not?)
Trivia
- G.I. Joe Sideswipe is modeled and named after Hasbro employee Andew Frankel, who also worked on the Transformers toyline.
- The Beast Wars name "Tarantulas" actually came from an unproduced Joe-series "Manimals" toy, Tarantulus.
