    Michael Jackson - Transformers Wiki

    Michael Jackson is a legend. But does he really merit a place on TFWiki?

    I can understand Marvel heroes (MARVEL connections), Superman (the original alien hero), the historical figures (who've encountered Transformers), but Michael Jackson? Why?

    who cares about this at all? If you want to justify the thread though, I guess you can include the fact that Michael Jackson was mentioned in that one G1 ep where the nightclub was hypnotizing people with music and Tracks and Blaster teamed up with the breakdancing guy to save the day

    It was the 80s, and the Transformers interacted with, or alluded to, 80s culture in a number of ways.

    I'm part of the Wiki. You wanna take it up with me?

    Short answer: Everything is notable.

    Long answer: Same as with Wikipedia, we have a faction that believes everything is notable. Unlike Wikipedia, that faction doesn't battle with another that believes nothing is notable. So basically anything that occurrs in Transformers canon, we include. Though it's up to the person who thinks of it to make it—we don't comb over fiction to find every reference to anything.

    Hell, we even have a page for "Latin Meltdown."

    Do you think MJ owned many TFs? Given what Neverland was like I'm sure he had a lot of cool toys too.

    It was more of an exo-armor.

    The Car Robots Devil Gigatron would work as a nice repurposing. It's white, and it used to be black, it changes between quite a few forms, and on the show, it frightened children.
