Re: I have a question about Third Party Naming Conventions

Hasbro trademarks their names, so it's safest to use something completely different, like Buildbot. Although Devastation would also qualify as "different".

Hence Eject and Rewind become Ejector and Rewinder.

Although Fansproject goes even further: Warbot, Munitioneer, and Explorer.

I should point out there are probably also concerns with making your bots too similar to theirs, but Hasbro and Takara don't really seem to be going after third parties too hard these kinds of things.
