>>9442467>Why didn't they name her Tyrannica?Her name needed to include the word 'Rex' so that it could be shortened to 'Rexy' - the canon name of the T-Rex that her alt mode is mimicking. The 'con' is obviously referencing 'Decepticon', so she's literally just 'Decepticon Rexy'. And JP93's name is obviously short for 'Jurassic Park, 1993', the year the movie adaptation of the book came out.
>>9442576She's stated to be a female in the description for the two-pack (see pic related), and she's based off of the T-Rex from Jurassic Park who was also outright stated to be a female; the sex of the mold's original use is irrelevant, given that they've done this for forever with characters like the original toys of Blackarachnia, Road Rage, and so on. It's an old (and lazy) reuse of molds that's been in practice since long before all of this modern pro-feminist and politically correct bullshit, so your argument has no legs here.
>>9442651Not even retooled, the original was just a straight-up repaint and was still considered a female character. Again, this has been common practice for the Transformers brad for forever; if anything, she['s a step ahead since they actually bothered to retool her head before passing her off as a new character.
