Wrong.

The katakana reads "Doreddorokku"

So Nevermore was accurate in his translation.

Until I see the place I originally saw the pics at change them I will refer to him only as Jet Rock, unless you want to provide me with a device that will translate for me that you didn't program.

Wow. We're just all kinds of trusting, aren't we?

On topic, I really cannot wait for those to come out. Those are going to look so good on my shelf.

You don't need to "translate" that. You just need to look up the Katakana characters, replace them with the respective Romaji equivalents and then try to find a more "western" spelling for the pronunciation.

I don't trust anyone. If someone says contrary to what I see first, I don't trust it until it is backed up by more than one person and the original admits he/she was wrong.

How about a guy who speaks/reads Japanese? That would be DrSpengler...

Still has to be backed up by more than one person and the person who said Jet Rock has to admit he/she was wrong. Someone can say they speak and read Japanese all they want but until I see it in person it's nothing more than a story. Anyone can say they can do anything when you can't see them prove it, thus I don't accept anyone's "abilities" as anything but stories.

Feel free to quit trolling in News at any time. If you'd bother even perusing the site here, you might notice DrSpengler's contributed Japanese character profiles (that he translated) as well as translating several mangas.

Bottomline - You're a dumbass and you couldn't be more wrong. Deal with it or shut it.

Well, someone's gotta fill in for Matt...

Bravo! And i can verify what ever Spengs says, if I knew exactly what you guys were looking at. As I can translate Katakana as well.

Okay, that was a little harsh from Auros, but seriously. I speak some Japanese (specifically, I know Katakana, the alphabet in which names [including these] are written), and I can confirm that "Jet Rock" is actually Dreadlock/Dreadrock. Japanese translations are often prone to some subjectivity, simply due to the nature of the language. An example of acceptable subjectivity is arbitrarily choosing -lock or -rock, since there is only one character corresponding to both the "la" and "ra" sounds. However, it is unacceptable to change "do-re-do" to "je-to" (noting that, after a T or D, O's in Japanese are silent unless otherwise noted), and so it must be a mistranslation. Refer to that link Nevermore gave if you still don't believe me.

(As an aside, I think it's really interesting that you have such odd standards on truth.)

GC-08 ? (too small for me to read that)

I'm reading them as Hop, Bumper, and Blight. According to The Allspark, Blight is Burrito.

Bottomline you are a jackass and can shove it. I will call him Jet Rock, or Bottomfeader or anything else I want until multiple people confirm Dreadlocks, don't like then go crying to your mamma cause she is the only one that is going to care you little baby.

Nevermore: Says it's Dreadlock.
Reflector: Says it's Dreadlock,

That's 2 people. Therefor, it's multiple people telling you the same thing.

And you can officially remove yourself from this thread, forum and conversation and shut the hell up until you can behave like an adult human being.

Wing Omega Convoy needs to shut up - I learnt a bit of japanese back in the day and Doreddorokku pretty much screams Dreadlock to me...

Would he/she also say that "Supa modo" or however it's spelt said something different to super mode???

Wake up jackass.

So what I and only I define what is enough, plus the original guy who said Jet Rock still hasn't said he/she was wrong yet.

Kiss my ass ***.

Get the **** out of my forum.

Seriously whats in a name. It'll be sorted out soon enough instead of yourslef, Wing Omega Convoy, going about causing arguments.

If you think you and only your word counts in this world... get a life.
