The Energon Pub

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.

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

It was Gas Skunk

Mixmaster. Its been used so many times its lost all meaning!

Violenjiger. Throw another 'g' in there and you're asking for it from the NAACP.

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.

Breast Force.
Stampy.
Kicker.
Hun-Grrr.

Bumblebee, since when are there bumblebees on Cybertron?
Jazz, since when is there jazz music on Cybertron?
Perceptor in armada, it's like they wrote TF names on a wall and threw a dart.

And still nobody mentions 'Skids'?

WTF is with the name Kup?

Even so, its a terrible name.

Rumours that his Targetmaster companion was originally going to be called Saucer are totally untrue.

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.

Stampy = > You

Nobody saying "Slapper"?

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.
"Oh no its Impactor! Bring out the Metamucil, stat!"

I'll count Ape Face, Big Daddy, among the worst.

Gas Skunk, Movor, Ro-Tor, Superion Maximus, Nemesisbreaker.

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

Marlboro Man wrote:Kickback

Really? Kickback? All the names out there and you choose Kickback? Why don't we just throw Megatron, Optimus Prime and Starscream up on the list?

But seriously, I'm just kidding, man . *talks about how it is his opinion and thats all that matters*

Blackarachnia. I'm all fo the "k" sound, but this name is too long.

Spittor - not looking forward to that name being carried on.
