Worst TF names ever?

Postby ponycorn » Fri Oct 24, 2008 1:26 pm

We've already had Erector and Windbreaker mentioned in another thread.

This can be all characters in the multiverse too... So let's hear it!


My personal pet peeve... How Armada kid Bradly called himself Rad.
In a place such as this, you are the perfect prey for a brest animal!

Who was that skunk in RID? Seems like he had "gas" in his name.

I was always bothered by Broadside. For an Aircraft carrier it made no sense. If he was a Battleship that would have been fine, but he isn't. It is in-freaking-possible for an Aircraft Carrier to fire 'broadside' because it does not have the neccessary armament.

From the Decepticon side I was always bothered by Bonecrusher. Transformers don't have bones! He would have been better off as Wire Cutter or something of that sort.

So...no Skullgrin or Skullcruncher either?

His name didn't exactly fit his description, but I thought it sounded alright. I would've named him Demolisher, or something like that, though.

The worst name would have to be Slag. I mean, what an insult! Then again, Sludge was much better, was it?

Pipes, Hosehead, Blot, Nosecone, Blacker, and Huffer are all up there too. I just think they all sound lame.

I'm not picking on the 'Bots, I swear. :lol:

What about Beast Wars names like Spittor and Cybershark? Waspinator anyone? Or some of the Micromasters like Big Daddy? Oh yeah, Decpeticons would lose their coolant when Big Daddy and Greaser and Hubs pulled up looking for trouble. Tankor.

Slag. Isn't slag supposed to be a Cybertronian vulgarity? Then why is a guy called it? Unless its Primus's way of telling him he sucks...

Gears. Bulkhead. Hosehead. Pipes. Nosecone. These guys are named after body parts. It would be like naming humans Fingernail, Rectum, Nostril, Eyelash and Small Instestine. See what I mean?

Impactor. Sounds like what happens if you don't eat enough fiber.

Kickback. Ok, he had powerful legs, but I still can't shake the vision of a transformer accepting money to loose in battle.
