Steve is a generic name frequently afforded to nameless minions by fans. Not sure where it started, but it's a pretty common thing to do.![]()
Other examples: In Chuggaaconroy's LP of Pikmin, he refers to a red pikmin as "Steve."
It personifies a character that otherwise has no character or development to speak of, but is obviously a sentient character.
Ahh, thanks!That does make it funnier now. Too bad the Vehicons have no personalities to speak of.
I want to say the first use of Steve being attributed to the Vehicons came from fellow Seibertron user Godzillabot Primal (God bless his little soul, he will surely be missed), but I'm not quite sure.

That Bot wrote:Hasbro can't do Deluxe Jet Vehicon without pulling all that extra plastic for the wings from some other deluxe figure, which would probably make it Scout-sized. They most likely have not engineered or prepared such a figure to fill out the Prime line, so short of a run of all-Jet Vehicons which would most stores probably wouldn't buy and which might break shipping weight limitations, the best we can hope for is that they get used as some convention exclusive or something.

Add a light-up gizmo
too many figures not seeing deluxe release (i.e. Tailgate and other recolors).

Then everyone would complain that we're paying too much for such a "small voyager."
Moral: you can't please the fandom. Quit trying.Add a light-up gizmo
Where have you been, kid? They dropped that gimmick.too many figures not seeing deluxe release (i.e. Tailgate and other recolors).
Why do they need to release a deluxe character that only showed up in the cartoon in a flashback for 10 seconds? Besides, Tailgate's the only "recolor" from the show. And may I remind you that during PRiD there were only five toy-only characters out of a toyline with 22 figures. They didn't need to fill it up with more toy-only "nobodies," because in Prime, the toyline's there to accommodate the show, not the other way around.
