UCM Poll: Should TF Prime Arms Microns count?

[Sharky]

I Dont really see them as model kits, more we asemble the toy ourselves which cuts out the middle man of someone sitting in a factory assembling before we get them. and what about the TF Prime Arms Micron Capsule toys that are already assembled?

Okay, forget about this poll. I've made another one here -- please vote there. The options are:
* All Arms Microns, Headmaster Warriors, Godmaster Warriors and PCC MiniCons should count individually
* Only those that are sold individually should count separately but not those that are partners
* All the Arms Microns should count, but do not retcon this ruling for HM/GM Warriors & PCC Mini-Cons
* None of them should count individually

I've set this up as an external poll so I don't need to amend the poll on different boards and stuff... gah. Also, how do I close this poll? (I clicked on thread tools but couldn't see an option)

So far 86% of respondents have voted for "All sold individually should count separately but not those that are partners" -- but it's recently occurred to me that I should've worded this poll better... we cannot retroactively change the counting rules for Unicron Trilogy Mini-Cons. This is because there are so many of them, it would render future results incomparable with past results.

I'm willing to retroactively change the ruling for partners where numbers are small enough that it wouldn't affect comparable data (since counts are rounded to the nearest 100 in the primary poll). I'm curious to see what the general consensus is on what can/can't be retconned in terms of maintaining data integrity. Here are my thoughts/questions -- if anyone has any comment to make, please say so now (or forever hold your peace ).

+ Takara G1 Master Warriors and Masterforce Warriors can count. There's only 9 of them in total, and they're hideously rare (even in Japan).

+ Power Core Combiners can be discounted. There are only 13 of them which were packaged with the droneless Power Core Combiner Commanders (e.g. Huffer, Searchlight, Smoulder etc.). This number should be small enough that it wouldn't have an effect on data.

So to clarify -- the way the majority are voting atm, it looks like most people are in favour of individually sold partners counting, but not for those packaged with a larger Transformer (Autobot/Decepticon). But we cannot retro-actively apply this to Armadaverse Mini-Cons because the number of them would be significant enough to render data incomparable.

Thank you.
