Oh, so he pronounced it wrong, too?

I used to play with He-Men, I know how to pronounce it. [-(

If anyone cares, I read it in my head as "Impacter", dont know why, it always felt more natural. But looking at the spelling, I totally understand why it would be pronounced the other way.

Dunno why but I always find it funny when ppl get annoyed over pronunciations of things.

In this case, it's because John Warden has had a tendency to say certain names weird. Most infamously, he says "Menasor" as "Men-uh-SAR".

Probably not on topic, but I do wonder how much of War for Cybertron we'll see this year. If I had to guess, a couple of figures from wave 1 will most likely be revealed at San Diego Comic-Con, then a few days later the entire 2019 product range will be revealed in a leak.
:HEADHURTS:

Seriously though, if previous fan vote figures are anything to go by, I'd say Impactor and Mirage won't be released until wave 3 in Summer 2019, but we might see something like grey prototypes at New York Comic-Con (Apparently there's not going to be a HasCon this year, makes me wonder if the Hall of Fame vote will still happen?).

It doesn't matter, it's spelled a certain way and that's how you say it, Impact-OR, not ER. That's just some of these 'Murican's butchering the English language again by saying ER instead of OR
