<br />
'''Signal Flare''' is a craftsman; he loves spending his time carefully sculpting raw [[Energon (Energon)|Energon]] into powerful weapons. He's considerably less interested in applying them to combat, though he's certainly no slouch in that department. Still, he'd rather leave the slice-and-dice to his feistier brother [[Offshoot (Energon)|Offshoot]].<br />
<br />
He is very intelligent, and his ability to both detect and manipulate Energon in its various forms, be it solid, energy or gaseous, makes him an invaluable member of the [[Autobot]] forces.<br />
<br />
Sometimes there are lots of him, other times he starts every statement with "CRZ!".<br />

===Energon===<br />
[[Image:Energon SignalFlare toy.jpg|right|300px|thumb|MASER? I hardly knew 'er!]]<br />
*'''Signal Flare''' (Basic, 2004)<br />
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''SC-12'''<br />
**''Accessories:'' Energon dish, 2 energon shields, Autobot-type [[Energon star]]<br />
<br />
: Signal Flare transforms into a Cybertronic half-track MASER tank. Moving the MASER arm causes the dish on the end to spin. The dish can be combined with a pair of shields to form his '''Energy Cutter'''. The Japanese version of the toy uses a very different shade of tan, and has slightly different paint applications.<br />
<br />
: The mold is also used by his brother [[Offshoot (Energon)|Offshoot]], and the [[Transformers (2007)|live-action-movie-series]] [[Signal Flare (Movie)|Signal Flare]]. The Signal Flare/Offshoot body design is used as the model for the ''[[Attacktix]]'' [[Omnicon]].<br />

*'''Signal Flare USA Edition''' (Basic, 2004)<br />
**''Accessories:'' Energon dish, 2 energon shields, Autobot-type energon star<br />
<br />
: In Japan, the Offshoot toy was made available as a Gamers store [[Exclusive]], available only at the Tokyo Character Show 2004, sold as a new incarnation of the Signal Flare "character".<br />
<br />
===Universe===<br />
*'''Signal Flare''' (Basic, 2005)<br />
**''Accessories:'' Energon dish, 2 energon shields, Autobot-type energon star<br />
<br />
: Signal Flare was repackaged on a ''[[Universe (2003 toyline)]]''-themed card and sold through discount chains in the US like Big Lots!.<br />
<br />
==Trivia==<br />
[[Image:SignalFlare-devsketch.jpg|right|200px|thumb|A Joe Decepticon, and a Cobra Autobot. Hm.]]<br />
* A MASER tank is a vehicle created in the Japanese ''[[Hojoni|Godzilla]]'' movie series. This would make Signal Flare's [[Terrorcon (Energon)|Terrorcon]] counterpart [[Cruellock]], who is patterned on the 1998 American-movie version of Godzilla. MASER tanks never really worked all that well against whatever giant monster was stomping around each week.<br />
<br />
* Development sketches from [[Aaron Archer]] reveal that part of the inspiration for Signal Flare's vehicle mode was the distinctively-shaped [[Cobra]] H.I.S.S. tank from the ''[[G.I. Joe]]'' toy line.<br />
