problem with the comics

The modern comics universe has had such a different take on G1, one that's significantly represented by the Generations toys, so they share a forum. A modern take on a Real Cybertronian Hero. Currently starring Generations toys, IDW "The Transformers" comics, MTMTE, TF vs GI Joe, and Windblade. Oh wait, and now Skybound, wheee!

It had nothing to do with naming conventions. You had one guy, from one series, named LioConvoy (who'd even been sold here by Hasbro under that name) and another guy, from a totally different series, named Leo Prime. It's just...to say that those two are one in the same just because they're the same colors...that's, like, crazy.

I see what you are saying. But, "color=character" became a standard in the early part of the last decade. Willis was just following that precedent with Lio Primvoy.

I figured that the name change was similar to Bluestreak/Silverstreak.

-that Voyager mould is awful.
