Yeah, I know this is basically speculation, but it's pretty consistent.

I found this image and name on this page.MedaA 23:15, April 26, 2010 (UTC)
- Maquette does exist, but the image is unsatisfactory. Also it has never appeared in any games.--SoujiroElric 01:08, April 27, 2010 (UTC)
- I always thought he was named Macket but I guess that makes more sense. ^^; He appears briefly in the Medarot 3 manga. It's apparently the prototype that both Tyrrellbeetle and Dorcus were based off... I'll see if I can get a scan... ~ Kimbles 01:51, April 27, 2010 (UTC)
I think he should be called Macket.201296 22:19, May 17, 2010 (UTC)
- Maquette makes way more sense since it's a... well maquette for the next KWG versions, amirite?--SoujiroElric 23:26, May 17, 2010 (UTC)
- Hmm... Maquette seems to be called KWG-3 unit 0, but it could otherwise possibly stand in as KWG-4, opposite Arcbeetle... It was created before Mach Massive, I'm sure. It's a bit more similar to the base design of the type than Arcbeetle is, but it would be nice to plug that hole in series numbering. The Golux 04:40, May 18, 2010 (UTC)
- Well... Here's the manga's explanation. I facepalmed when I saw that page, but it fits with the stupid numbering in Medarot 2 and 3... :/ Pretty much, Tyrrellbeetle is supposed to be KWG-4 and the opposite to Arcbeetle, but it didn't appear in a game until M4 where it was paired with Arc-Dash instead. Anyway, since Maquette was a prototype for both KWG-3 and KWG-4, it's not technically either, and probably isn't considered to have a model number of its own. D; I guess. ~ Kimbles 05:20, May 18, 2010 (UTC)
- Well, it did say it was KWG3 Unit 0. Also, since Dorcus and Tyrrellbeetle are now KWG-5 and KWG-6, Maquette going immediately before them does make sense if it's a prototype of them, which once again puts it in the 4 slot for a non-just-satisfying-my-aesthetic-sense reason. So actually that makes my case stronger rather than refuting it; the only thing that's off are the numbers, and they're all off. The Golux 05:49, May 18, 2010 (UTC)
