Since this Windblade's pretty clearly based on the same design as the toy, the Generations toy should be listed on this page, shouldn't it? --abates (talk) 04:20, 26 April 2015 (EDT)

No - it's a similar design but nowhere near similar enough to count as a repurposing. She'll probably get her own RID toys eventually, anyway. Riptide (talk) 06:02, 26 April 2015 (EDT)

I don't know, to me it seems as similar to her show model as many of the RID toys do... --abates (talk) 03:02, 28 April 2015 (EDT)
But the difference is that Windblade's Generations toy was sold as her G1 incarnation, with G1 pack-in fiction, long before she was announced as a RID character. All the RID toys with differences from their characters were still being sold specifically as those characters. So for her Generations toy to be listed here, it'd have to be counted as a repurposing, and her show design is way too divergent for that - they have similar builds, altmodes, transformations, colours and head designs, but almost all the details are completely different.
