Well, Cybertron Scrapmetal was called "Rumble" in Galaxy Force (with his pile drivers and Coby's version's head intending to homage the G1 dudes), and he came in both red and blue versions, as well as yellow.That Bot wrote:That's Japan being consistent with their version of the TF universe, I guess. Have there been any other versions of Frumble in Japanese TF media?
), certain IDW comics (namely the first ongoing and Autocracy), the Diamond Select Mini-Busts, and the canceled-but-still-existent Reveal the Shield Demolition Rumble figure.

FACT: This color scheme was shared by the Marvel Comics
FACT: The colors got reversed in the G1 cartoon
FACT: The G1 cartoon was written by various freelance writers, funded by Hasbro, handled by Sunbow Productions who had the animation done by Toei Animation and AKOM, and debuted in the US in 1984. American voice actors were the first voice actors to give life to the characters.
FACT: The G1 cartoon premiered in Japan in 1985.
FACT: The Japanese G1 cartoon reversed the names of Frenzy and Rumble so that their colors were correct with the toys and every other iteration.
FACT: Aligned Frenzy and Rumble aren't G1, and have been consistently portrayed as red and blue respectively, meaning the FIRRIB/FIBRIR debate doesn't matter here.
Now can we get back to discussing our potential Hasbro Prime Frenzy toy?
Though, the Takara versions of Prime Rumble and Prime Frenzy have their colors switched.

The minicon is a bit derpy also. xD And paint is always better than stickers. =_=;
(Though I did enjoy building little Hot Spot here, but being a model kit, that's thee exception.)

Erm why would that be when Leo Prime's bio explicitly states the TF: Prime universe to be a different dimension from the G1-verse?JelZe GoldRabbit wrote:Since TakaraTomy has no Aligned continuity like Hasbro does, due to lack of the games, we can assume they're the Cybertonian forms of the G1 characters.

This has nothing to do with what the immature TF Wiki says! Just because you grew up with Hasblow doesn't mean they did it all! And by the looks of it, your gold is starting to rust!

Dude...
The United States originally came up with the fiction, and several studios in and around the Philippines helped animate the cartoon, while Sunbow wrote the fiction. Japan saw the hubbub going on there and cut short the rebranding of the Diaclone line in favor of the Transformers. Therefore, G1 aired in America in 1984, while in Japan it aired in 1985. How can you not get that?
