alright, this is the new (I don't think it is the first) Rumble is red, Frenzy is blue thread. or Rumble is blue, Frenzy is red. whatever. just... don't break any rule, alright?

I personally think Rumble is red, Frenzy is blue.

the debate over something that is not important, begins!

Question! Is there somebody on your end, like say maybe your sister or a friend, that may have sparked this? I'm just curious as to what would bring this 'totally out of left field' topic up. The only ones who know there is really any red/blue debate are old-timers like myself who were around when the original G1 Rumble/Ravage and Frenzy/Lazerbeak packs were realeased. And that was so long ago that the lines have blurred and memory is such that Frenzy has really always seemed red and Rumble was always blue just because of the G1 cartoon.

Just be ready because some smart-alec Movie person is gonna jump and say something like "No, Frenzy is silver". 8-}

Personally though, I always liked the Rumble = Red / Frenzy = Blue gimmick. That's how they were originally packaged and it is sooo much easier to remember. :grin:

Fact is Rummble was intended to be red and Frenzy blue.

The G1 show animators either chose to make a change or they made a mistake.

Yeah...just like who became Cyclonus and Scourge in the 86 movie...

Rumble is blue/purple and Frenzy is red and black. They should have called him Johnnie Walker.

and Ratbat was Purple with gold weapons...like a Crown Royal bag. My God Man! I think you're onto something here. Soundwave was an alcoholic! 8-} And his tapes were supplying him. Those cubes had nothing to do with energon, the 'Cons were Moonshiners.
That's why they story writers couldn't keep the colors straight. They couldn't SEE straight.

(Can you tell the weekend wasn't long enough for me?)

LMFAO! I actually laughed until i teared up...

So the little guys were a bunch of drug dealers...

You think there's a DAA (Decepticon Alcoholics Anonymus) out there?

And Ravage was pitch black...I shudder to think what *he* was supplying...

But I always knew Soundwave was a freak...

Soundwave: "Johnny Walker, Crown Royal, Jack Daniels, Mad Dog - EJECT! Operation: Intoxication."


Sorry guys, didn't mean to corrupt this thread. I now return you to your regularly scheduled Red/Blue debate already in progress...

I bought a blue one at comic convention a month or two ago (and in pretty good shape with both guns) for $10 and I call him Frenzy.

That is an impressive find there for 10 bucks. Need the G1 filecard to go with it?

I'll give you a somewhat more detailed response than Name_Violation. I'm a little bit more aware of how new you are to all this than what he is. I can also see the confusion since there were actually two scenes in the '86 movie in which the Cassette brothers both used 'Pile Drivers'. Technically, only Rumble (the blue one in the cartoons) has the Pile Driver Arms. Frenzy creates a high pitched grating sound from internal mechanisms. I can't tell you why exactly they both had the drivers in the '86 movie (probably just because it is a cool looking feature and you can't decently draw or animate what Frenzy does) but the red one was still Frenzy.

I hope that helped clear it up a bit primusminor22 and I'll whack N_V upside the head next time I come across him. (which should be very shortly) :grin:
