The result was redirect to List of Autobots#Micromasters. Whether to merge something from the history is up to editors. Despite the somewhat flaccid discussion, editors agree that we do not need to erect a monument in the form of an article to this particular toy. Sandstein 12:11, 18 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

PROD contested by @JIP: for reason "famous for unfortunate name". Of course, this must still pass GNG.,, FoxyGrampa75 (talk) 00:34, 2 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to List of Autobots. This article attempts to make a GNG claim with the Topless Robot source, but that notability ones comes from being a part of this group. Making into the Transformers Hall of Fame might confer some notability, but I'm unconvinced it's enough to sustain an article on its own. Argento Surfer (talk) 20:11, 6 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - Hoist (Transformers) and Pipes (Transformers) were both recently deleted although a Redirect to List of Autobots was suggested - by the same rationale, Erector (Transformers) should be deleted as well - Epinoia (talk) 03:36, 9 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

Merge into List of autobots, either with or without redirect. We have several articles on rather unfortunate names, so this doesn't get a freebie in that respect. See also the Pokemon test, which I think this fails. – John M Wolfson (talk • contribs) 02:19, 10 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Delete as per my PROD. TTN (talk) 02:36, 14 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
