    I think we need to add a "CW" in there somewhere

    And this series of lines is what makes up almost all of my collection

    Don't forget "TR" and "TAV".
    I have a list of all G1 characters that have been released in CHUG form. You can find it here. Please feel free to let me know if I got anything wrong so I can fix it.

    TAV is a stretch, as only a few of the releases are classics verse moulds...
    As for what they all stand for:
    Classics Henkei Universe Generations United Reveal the shield Legends Unite Warriors

    It's a split line, some are CHUG figures some are RID figures. But I'm hoping that Skids being in LG means they are stopping putting CHUG figures in TAV tho. I'm over RID.

    I would go for the most letters in the acronym as possible for comedic effect.

    And can't believe it's been 10 years! Classics probably started my collecting off again when I found Classics starscream at Target.

    CHUGUR = Classics, Henkei, Universe, Generations, United, Reveal the Shield
    The "LUW" was put in because I made that image a while back because someone else jokingly said that with all the new names that Hasbro keeps giving to Classicsverse, it's going to end up sounding like "CHUGURLUW," which I responded with that pic saying that it sounds like someone vomiting. But since Classicsverse is so awesome, they'd be vomiting a rainbow.

    CW didn't exist when I made that pic, although CW is technically a sub-branch of Generations.

    I think that was me, and I'd said the "LUW" for Takara's Legends and Unite Warriows, at the time lumping CW in as a Generations subline (like FOC and Thrilling 30 - the acronym could be stupid huge eventually)

    Hence why I just call it "Classics-verse"

    Would probably only qualify as an "A" based on the others' naming criteria - as Adventure.

    Could work though

    CHUGURFOCT30CWLUPWATR? Even though the sound of it is something quite atrocious, if you say it loud enough you'll always sound precocious!
