But if they were the same character why would they have different names? If a loose, vaguely similar matching colour scheme is all that is needed I am looking forward to checking in with the cab of Ultra Ratchet later. (emphasis mine) Did you miss the bit about Perceptor & Countdown both being made from Cybertron Defence Red Alerts? |

Wiki links will be required to prove your innocence... |

I might already know that...
There's another too claiming to be complete but clearly missing the missile and the cyber key.

Universe 2 has been on my mind a bit the last few days since the Countdown discussion. Pins really should buy one BTW.
The more I look at it the more I think that Universe 2 was meant to be Universe part 2, another pure repaint line, concentrating on Cybertron.
Then Classics happened, which I think may have stolen some repaint meant for Universe 2, and then the Movie, which I think stole more than the 7 walmart/asda deluxe that has been admitted.

I made Rich see Universe 2 Countdown while he was here. I am a True Friend :-) It was quite amazing how, by the time I left, Phil's table was covered in robots that are on my wants list. He is an absolute demon when it comes to encouraging innocent Hubbers into parting with their cash. |

He's got thousands from me over the years. Thousands*. -Ralph *For charity though! |

Last time I saw Phil he was able to confirm for me that I did want to buy the toy I already intended to. But I'm not aware that either Phil or Nick have, in the recent past led to me purchasing anything I wasn't already going to.

Yes and you're not innocent in this either. It was your idea that started me on this in the first place!

You were indeed! You confirmed that I did want to recruit her, and thanks to Ralph and Richard (not of this parish) I was able to secure one at TFN in one of my brief forays into the dealer room.

U2 Countdown is one of those that I honestly can't remember if I own it or not.
I am keenly familiar with it's appearance, though I don't know if that familiarity comes from owning it, or just seeing pictures of it so much.
