If Hasbro decides to give us all 3 Rainmakers what should he be named? So far we have Sunstorm and Acid Storm, and assuming they continue with the "storm" motif what would be a good "storm" name? The 3rd Rainmaker is purple, so I was thinking something along the lines of ether "Wind Storm" or "Laserstorm". Those two names make the most sense to me, dose anybody else like those names or different ones?

Bowelstorm

I'd completely forgotten that sunstorm was 1 of the 3 rainmakers in the 'toon. and i thing we should get a classics/universe version of him before they do the third rainmaker!
As far as a name i like the idea of wind storm.

Yep Sunstorm was one of them, and I do think he should be released first. However if and when they do make the 3rd one I personally like Laserstorm better.

Coldstorm, Icestorm, or Windstorm.

Anything that would suggest his job is cooling evaporated acid.

Windstorm.

Moneymaker

i think icestorm is much better than coldstorm!

How about, Coldfront?

Make him the leader because he has a different suffix.

sounds like a plan to me!

Correct me if I'm wrong but hasn't Sunstorm already been established as the leader of the Rainmakers?

Considering none of them ever actually speak, and Sunstorm only ever appeared on his own in the comics with a totally different story I'd say you're wrong.

How about Hailstorm. Sounds dangerous.

Ok fair enough. Though to me it makes more sense to have Sunstorm as the leader as he is the most established of all three.

Damn, you beat me to it.

The Transformers wiki reckons that Sunstorm is not the Rainmaker but a generic Seeker from MTMTE Part 1. As far as I'm concerned, meh.

not that i'm aware of. the only thing i know they've established about him is that he is/was a clone of starscream!

What I mean by established is he had the comic, but he also has had several toys of him made, unlike Acid Storm who only has one, and the 3rd one whom has had zero toys yet.

Guess I'd say Shadowstorm, though, the name in itself doesn't feel all that right to me. Suppose Hailstorm or Coldfront would be decent enough.

Storm Shadow. Sounds more natural and they already have trademarked the name.

I would really rather prefer the figure was named 'Phillip'.

If you don't know, you better ask somebody.

If anything it's gotta be Billy or Burt.

Isn't Billy and Autobot?

True, but the 'cons didn't have crappy names like that. So I just thought of tow of the stupid names for Autobots.

Isn't that the name of the white Cobra ninja? I admit it sounds better, but I don't know if they could crisscross something like that.

Why's it gotta be a race issue?
