SideTracks

Post by Rhymus »

According to TFWiki.net, Alternators Sideswipe's design was originally intended for Tracks.

G1 Tracks turns into a Chevy Corvette.

ROTF Sideswipe turns into a Chevy Corvette.

Huh.

The simpler the word, the harder to trademark. Sideswipe (one word) is much less likely to correspond to a toy than Tracks.

Armada Hot Shot would have been called Bumblebee if it weren't for some sort of Buzzin' Bumblebee Baby Swing.
