Names were accidentally swapped. Ah, but I don't think anyone has put forward an argument that Hasbro 'accidentally' replaced 'ler Mini-' with 'a'. More likely that 'Sparkler Mini-bots' was a placeholder name that they realised made them sound too weedy, so they went with the more punchy 'Sparkabots' in the end - but too late for Simon Furman to correct.

Indeed not. What say you about what it says on the toy's cards? -The Backyard We know they can be wrong! -Ralph But having established a precedent that the cards can be wrong, we now into new and exciting territory for Burns as his arguments against Stepper & Artfire and Flyheels & Battletrap being name swapped now stand in tatters. Sideswipe & Sunstreaker to go |

I was just answering Shock Ican'trecognizeprowl's direct question about Battletrap/Flywheels and Artfire/Stepper. Yep, realise that. Just making the argument that Phil's examples are not directly relevant to the Sparkabot question, which isn't a question of unintended typos. Martin |
