    "Wreckage-Garbage," or something along those lines. I give it +1 for creativity, +1 for uniqueness, and +1 for sounding cool. I'd place Arcee in this category, possibly even Kup.

    Optimus Primal. "You see, it's like Optimus Prime, but changed to primal because he's a gorilla!" Yeah, great. Very clever. Piss off and bring back Erector.

    It's from that horrible english dub of Headmasters.

    Metroplex=Phillip
    Blurr=Wally
    Spike=Sparkle
    Blaster=Billy
    Fortress Maximus=Spaceship Bruce
    Soundblaster=New Soundwave

    It's absolutely awful.

    Why would you call a Dinosaur a name that its normally aimed at skanky women?

    Well, it's not slang for that in America...or Japan.

    In America it's not slang, in fact. It's just "cooling lumps of metal".

    Its actually waste from refining metal, and is more like a ceramic. But still kind of a strange choice from both a Transformers and a real life point of view.

    To contribute, I always thought Missile Master was a pretty crummy name. That and Banzai-Tron. And Sky Garry.

    Sky Garry? That sounds a lot more like a function than a name.

    There's really nothing wrong with any of those names...
    How about HOSEHEAD? I remember when I got him and thought what a lame name.
