:::::::: What's more, no new opinion has been voiced in almost 10 days.

:::::::::While I am personally indifferent to the split, there is one thing that I noticed that I thought to put here. In [[Rayman in the Phantom Show]], a prop of the Rayman 1 Magician’s wand appears on top of a replica of the Rayman Origins Magician's hat. Now I don't see why the Origins Magician would have a wand, as according to the scrapped script he stunk at magic, but the fact that both Magicians (in the case that they are not one-and-the-same) were referenced through these props feels a bit odd to me. If they were referencing the Rayman 1 Magician, wouldn't they have used a replica of that hat? I might just be overthinking this, but I think it's worth putting here anyway.

:::::::::: It's definitely been on my mind. This could imply they '''could''' be the same. However, I should point out that they're props and that it isn't 1 to 1 with the hat as seen in Origins (you can see it has a little ribbon), the same applies to the first game's wand (although these are just small details). In any case, while something we COULD consider, there seem to be too many interpretations and no way of knowing what is "currently" intended. Did they redesign them? Are they the same? It wasn't thought out? I find it unlikely we will ever find a concrete answer.--[[User:Arcanedarkling|Arcanedarkling]] ([[User talk:Arcanedarkling|talk]]) 20:46, 5 November 2024 (UTC)

::::::::::: One possibility that I find very likely is that, with the Dark Teensy impersonating Rayman 1's Magician, the difference between the two hats is purely stylistic, a case of a small redesign. After all, in order to pass himself off as the real Magician, he might as well use the same hat. Therefore, the inclusion of this hat in the DLC merely reflects this change in style and is meaningless with regards to the characters' respective identities. Of course, this is just speculation, nothing that would belong in the article itself. —[[File:RRRGBAIcon8.png|class=sprite|link=User:Hunchman801]][[File:RRRGBAIcon0.gif|class=sprite|link=User:Hunchman801]][[File:RRRGBAIcon1.png|class=sprite|link=User:Hunchman801]] 13:10, 6 November 2024 (UTC)
