Why have you been sitting on that for two weeks?

Post by Philip Ayres on Nov 16, 2018 15:48:30 GMT
Because I knew we were doing them in the poll this week and I knew the subject of the names being swapped would come up.

YMMV
I am in possession of another interesting piece of Toyfair material to back up another long standing theory. I am waiting for what we shall call "the right moment"

The truth....
The Truth is often shades of grey, not black and white....
And I'm not talking about spankings and Nippleclamps.

Flywheels/Battletrap came up on the FB group this morning, reminding me of this thread.
Got an interesting bit of info to contribute to a long standing theory when the subject comes up in the catalogue poll......

I'm intrigued if interesting means that they were reversed or that they weren't! |

What if it was Siren was meant to be Headmaster Prowl?

What if it was Siren was meant to be Headmaster Prowl? No, this is not a new theory, it's a known existing one which fills in another piece of the jigsaw which makes the overall evidence more compelling. |

I can make a good case that the 1988 Headmasters should be their Japanese colours and the US versions are the repaints.

Oh Goodie :-) Here are the 1988 Autobot Headmasters we're familiar with  And here are their 1988 Japanese Cybertron Headmaster Jr Counterparts  Siren is repainted as C-301 Goshooter tfwiki.net/wiki/Cab_(human)Hosehead is virtually unchanged as C-302 Cab tfwiki.net/wiki/Cab_(human)Nightbeat becomes the female C-303 Minerva tfwiki.net/wiki/Minerva_(Masterforce_human)The Japanese versions hae a more cohesive theme as emergency vehicles but the clincher for me is how the annoying yellow bits in Nightbeat's roof become Minerva's sirens in her ambulance car mode. |

Not sure he'd work as a yellow airport fire engine Else, given the lack of Hotspot, possibly Artfire it? The options are limited. |
