I'm aware that he's a GI Joe, but it takes a lot to beat "Snow Job".

better that kup was a pick up truck rather than, say a flame coloured winnebago...

As much as I like using him in the RPG Banzai-Tron is a stupid name

It just means that Baxter has seen the light and realizes that Trailbreaker > Hound.

Come to think of it, naming a robot "Hound" doesn't make a whole lot of sense for someone who goes around and surveys things. He isn't exactly "hounding" someone but keeping his distance since he would get his arse kicked if he didn't.

Buzzsaw

he doesnt have a saw of any sort

Aimless, it makes sense but a 5 year old could come up wit dat name

I was just nominating it for the worst Transformer names.
I mean how do you break a trail. Cover it up with His noxious fumes

Nope. I'm still Hound's most loyal and favorite lackey...nevermind the fact that I'm his only lackey.

But with me spreading the good name of Hound, soon everyone will want to join us, including Civ.

Either that or we'll want to wring your neck, including me.

However, it does make sense for a character who's function is "scout". He's a tracker of sorts, goes along with all the sensor and holographic mapping equipment...

Ah ok, so he's robotic bloodhound as well as a scout. Makes sense.

Indeed.

I'm going to go with a non-G1 name: Sideburn

Erector. How that one got through the Hasbro vetting process I'll never know...
