==Naming==
Cyclops is a mythological creature - Mjolnir is a mythological weapon. Perhaps all exoskeletons are named after mythological items. Maybe body armor level = weapons, large-scale vehicle level = creatures. Also strengthens idea that this is related to Mjolnir armor development --[[User talk:RSIxidor|RSIxidor]] 16:53, 30 December 2008 (UTC)

==More Trivia?==
It occurred to me that there are several other similarities (as well as the [[HRUNTING/YGGDRASIL Mark I Prototype Armor Defense System|Prototype powered exoskeleton]]), with other mecha units, namely, the [http://cnc.wikia.com/wiki/Wolverine_Mk._I Wolverine unit] from [http://cnc.wikia.com/wiki/Tiberian_Sun Command & Conquer: Tiberian Sun], and the [http://starshiptroopers.wikia.com/wiki/Marauder_(film) Marauder power-armor exoskeleton] from the [http://starshiptroopers.wikia.com/wiki/Starship_Troopers_3:_Marauder Starship Troopers 3: Marauder] film. I just thought this might make some good trivia for the Trivia section of the article, but I'd like to know what everyone else thinks about this. ---[[User talk:Xamikaze330|Xamikaze330]] 16:40, 10 December 2011 (EST)Xamikaze330
== Are Mega Blocks versions canon? ==
The Arctic and Attack ones? I know 343I is working with them closely with this stuff(like the ONI REAP-X) so would they be canon? [[User:10of13|10of13]] ([[User talk:10of13|talk]]) 00:25, 24 November 2013 (EST)
:The canonicity of these items is ambiguous at the moment. [[Talk:Reverse_Engineering_and_Prototyping%E2%80%93Xenotechnology_department|This]] talk page provides a better explanation as to why.--{{User:Spartacus/Sig}} 01:41, 24 November 2013 (EST)
==Article title==
It has recently been established that the Mark III [B] is just one of several production models. I think it would be a good idea to rename the page '''HRUNTING Mark III Cyclops''', '''Mark III Cyclops''', or even just '''Cyclops'''. What does everyone think about this? --[[User:Braidenvl|<span style="color:gray">'''''Our vengeance is at hand.'''''</span>]] [[File:Gravemind.svg|14px]] ([[User talk:Braidenvl|<span style="color:gray">Talk to me.</span>]]) 08:49, 10 March 2015 (EDT)
:Agreed. Should the megablock images of the variants be used for each article main image (at least for now)?--'''''[[User:Killamin7i|<span style="color:Black; font-family: Arial;">Killamin</span><span style="color:red; font-family: Arial;">7</span><span style="color:black; font-family: Arial;">i</span>]]''''' [[User talk:Killamin7i|<font color="Gray">///</font>]] 10:01, 10 March 2015 (EDT)
::My vote is for '''Mark III Cyclops''', pretty much the same set up as [[Mark IX Mantis ADS]].

:::I agree with '''Mark III Cyclops'''. And I don't think each variant should get its own article, similar to what we did with the Warthog article and its variants. - [[User:NightHammer|NightHammer]] ([[User talk:NightHammer|talk]]) 15:29, 10 March 2015 (EDT)

:"Mark III Cyclops" is a little misleading, however, as it suggests the vehicle in question is the third model of the "Cyclops" line when that's just the name for the HRUNTING Mark III exoskeleton (the preceding suits weren't supposedly called Cyclops). Same with the "Mark IX Mantis" title. I'd rather have gone with HRUNTING Mark III Cyclops (indicating it's "Mark III" of the HRUNTING, not Cyclops, series) or just Cyclops; if we're going for brevity the "Mark III" feels extraneous. --[[User:Jugus|<font color="MidnightBlue"><b>Jugus</b></font>]] <small>([[User talk:Jugus|<font color="Gray">Talk</font>]] | [[Special:Contributions/Jugus|<font color="Gray">Contribs</font>]])</small> 00:36, 11 March 2015 (EDT)
::If we renamed it HRUNTING Mark III Cyclops would you also want to rename the Mark IX Mantis ADS page?[[User:Sith Venator|<span style="color:green">Sith-venator Wavingstrider</span>]] [[File:Fett helmet.jpg|20px]] ([[User talk:Sith Venator|<span style="color:blue">Commlink</span>]]) 00:41, 11 March 2015 (EDT)
:::Yeah, based on the same reasoning (vehicles in the HRUNTING/YGGDRASIL series other than the "IX" model weren't called Mantis). I'd be fine with just "Cyclops" and "Mantis" as titles, but I suppose it's best to include the HRUNTING/YGGDRASIL stuff for the sake of consistency. Hence we'd get '''HRUNTING Mark III Cyclops''' and '''HRUNTING/YGGDRASIL Mark IX Mantis'''.  --[[User:Jugus|<font color="MidnightBlue"><b>Jugus</b></font>]] <small>([[User talk:Jugus|<font color="Gray">Talk</font>]] | [[Special:Contributions/Jugus|<font color="Gray">Contribs</font>]])</small> 02:11, 11 March 2015 (EDT)
