    The fact that some people refuse to accept the evidence does not mean they really have a debate.

    There is evidence supporting both sides. In the cartoon he is clearly blue but his toy is black and red.

    Oh yeah, let's discuss FIBRIRBRIBFIB again! Sure we're going to reach a conclusion on that after all these years!

    Next up: Which is the TRUE G1 continuity? Cartoon or Marvel? Is it still Transformers when Optimus turns into a MUNKY instead of a TRUKK?

    I cared when Galvatron told Shockwave it was his turn to die.

    Everything that is officially licensed and released is canon, regardless of self-absorbed fanon preference.

    That was awesome! I love the music at the end. Its the same music that plays in some of TF commercials from the 80s. Anyone know where to find that bit of music?

    I was refering more to the Cyclonus debate.

    But.....on the Rumble issue, the evidence clearly indicates what the creators intent was.

    The only real issue is if it was a mistake, of if they just liked the blue better and made a change.

    That's how a lot of the more rational sources interpret it, so you're in good company

    I like that the two loyal seekers because Galvatron two loyal henchmen. So Skywarp and Thundercracker are Cyclonus and Scourge.

    To me personally, Cyclonus will always be the reformatted Skywarp. The colours of the two seekers (purple and blue) match up too well with the newly formed Cyclonus and Scourge. And being Megatron's 2 original air warriors (alongside starscream) fits perfectly with them now being Galvatron's new lieutenants.

    Because Thundercracker is well-established as being a devoted believer in the Decepticon cause!
