So what do you call Energon Wing Saber, who doesn't carry a sword neither?
Well the name "Wing Saber" might be making reference that his wings cut through the air like blades, thus giving meaning to his name. Energon Wing Saber transforms into a flying wing in vechicle mode.
This argument could also be made for the name "Air Razor" in reference to her falcon modes sharp claws which is a trait common on all birds of prey.
But I just cant seem to find "Laser Primes" laser or any similaraties that justify the name.
The "Laser" has more to do with the lighting features of the original G2 toy, which debuted with the "Laser Rod" subgroup. Laser Rods had sword weapons, that could be illuminated with a LED plugged into the fist. See the connection now? True, the RtS toy doesn't have that, but should they make a new version of the Hero figure, which is the first new G2 Prime mold, then what?
And I've noticed the peg problem with mine from day one, but I'm not bothered at all. Still happy it's fixed, more reason for me to pick up the United version too.
