That doesn't make it accurate. The toys came first, followed by the comic, and those are the same. And the cartoon had a lot of animation and color mistakes. Rumble and Frenzy being miscolored is one of them.Coptur wrote:the most iconic version without a shadow of doubt is the US cartoon version and he is BLUE
all the others including the toy come 2nd.

Slamdance and Squawkbox, Snapdragon and Apeface, Blue Bacchus, the double Targetmasters and perhaps even a nice Raiden boxset?
Fan who grew up with only the cartoon: Who are they? When did they appear?
P.S. Don't answer those questions, I'm well aware who they are, but the casual uninitiated fans may not.

Rumble and Frenzy appear prominently in two scenes and I can't even recall seeing them in Season 3. So nothing contradictory there either.

Ha! My daughter discovered the Transformers movie at age 3 as well. Though me of course In fact, I am writing an article about how that film still holds up to young kids today, which will be published soon.
Yeah, it only really starts to fall apart when you actually really try to think about it.leokearon wrote:william-james88 wrote:AllNewSuperRobot wrote:I had to look it up to understand what was being discussed.

TFTM was my first movie (saw it on video back in the day) and it is still one of my favourite movies

Didn't the rumor about the Encore set of Dino Cassettes also mention something about Frenzy in new colors? You might be on to something here! It's a great idea for sure.Seibertron wrote:You know what'd be really awesome? A cartoon accurate "Rumble" and "Frenzy" two pack, or at least a cartoon accurate Rumble with Ratbat or something. Blue Frenzy toy is not a truly accurate "Cartoon" Rumble or Takara cartoon Frenzy. He needs that purplish blue, etc. That would be awesome and funny.
Just to clarify, this would only be awesome if we ended up with the more desirable cassettes first, or if it were a convention exclusive like for SDCC or something. I wouldn't want a niche item to replace a better selling item.

Not to mention that the longer lasers are very prone to breakage as well, so I kind of welcome this change. I have dozens of broken Laserbeak and Buzzsaw accessories in the parts bin for the Seibertron.com Store!
