    I don't think Demolishor or Rampage are ever refered to by their toy names, so I think it's unlikely it will be changed.

    I don't actually care anyway. The fans know who they are, and those who aren't into the toys can call them what they want.

    It's not like all other movie credits are perfect either - staying within TFs, the original animated movie listed about 10 characters who didn't even get a line in the film!

    Starscream refers to Rampage by his name when they "spring the trap" with Sams parents.

    RARGH! 89% of us voted "no" and it looks like 89% of us were right!

    I picked up the ROTF 2-disc Special Edition set on Monday, and sure enough, the credits still refer to Rampage and Demolishor as "Skipjack" and "Wheelbot"! I even paused that part of the credits just to be sure!

    Man this is massively disappointing, but sadly it comes as _no_ surprise. *massive.sigh*

    I would like to see the movie accurate redecos to be called Wheelbot & Skipjack, hell I'd buy them if that was the case.

    they would be able to get away with Wheelbot cos I don't remember Demolishor ever being referred to by name in the movie, but Rampage was actually called Rampage in the film, contradicting any reference to him as Skipjack.

    I do like the idea of releasing repaints of these moulds with those names though.
