That would explain why they didn't say it, I guess.

It's at times like this I begin to feel life would be much easier if we all just lived in Phil's head.

Is Bob actually Hardhead? -Ralph BOB IS NOT HARDHEAD, WE HAVE ESTABLISHED WHO BOB IS!!!!!!!!!! I'd say nobody other than Hardhead, Dinotron & Tankor is Hardhead but I know of at least one other toy that is but we're a few years away from that appearing in a poll. It's not my fault lots of the toys referencing Hardhead all showed up at once!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Can we shorten 'Robots in Disguise' to 'Bobs in Disguise'? I Googled 'Hi Bob' and got an HR tech company: www.hibob.com/about/Martin

Onslaught is Hardhead. -Ralph Yes, but only cos they painted the Universe 2 version green and slapped the Hardhead name on it And yet it is Hardhead. Do you only accept new Hardheads that aren't called Hardhead? -Ralph

Onslaught isn't intrinsically Hardhead, there's little about the original Onslaught that makes you think Hardhead in either it's form or colours. And that' setting aside that original Onslaught came out the year before Hardhead..... And there's not a lot about Universe Onslaught that screams Hardhead either, the Hardhead recolour is very much a name slap repaint, albeit one where they got the colours right for the name.
Whereas Tankor shares some design elements with Hardhead, the 4 tank treads, the off centre vehicle mode cannon that becomes a shoulder cannon, and Dinotron is recoloured from the Neo toy named Hardhead using the colours of G1 Hardhead.

But it's called Hardhead. It says so on the box and instructions.

It's obvious when you think about it. They both turn into 'flatbed' bases, whereas Hot Spot and Motormaster more split open.

Off-topic! This thread isn't for TF toys discussion! I'm not sure what it is for, I don't think anyone really knows, but it's not for this!

Martin may have seen the correct answer in two places now today but I suspect hasn't in either of them.
When he finds it he is advised to proceed no further for the obvious reason.

Thanks to the debate about "Is POTP Hun-Grrr a retool of CW Silverbolt?" certain sections of Fandom automatically reply CW Silverbolt whenever there's a question about is X or Y a retool. Since it was jokingly suggested Hardhead was a retool of Onslaught it made sense to contradict it with his fellow Special Team leader Silverbolt
