This is really just a funny story for transformers production. Okay, last night I went to Visionfest, which is an animation festival here in Indy. The keynote speaker was Rick O'connor, one of the animation supervisors for at ILM. After he spoke a friend and I were asking him about transformers and somehow Brawl comes up.

Rick "Yeah the tank guy. We called him that cause he had like three names. Demolisher and..."

Me (in the quietest voice ever)- "...devastator"

Rick- "Yeah that's it! Anyway, we were working on the downtown scene and we should the tank guy's first test footage to Michael. And he said "The tank looks like turd in every shot." So we came up with another name for him, Turdy the Tank"

All- (laughter)

So yeah, Brawl is AKA Turdy the Tank

Just you all might enjoy that.
