'''Kup''' is a tough old coot. He's almost as old as rust, in fact, and he was plinking Decepticons with acid bursts from his trusty musket laser long before most of you turbo-revvin' young punks were born. In his day, lasers didn't ''need'' to use light; they did whatever they were told to do. And liked it.

He's probably had a thousand adventures, has Kup, and he'll be glad to relate a story of any one of them at any time to a willing audience. The [[Dinobot (G1)|Dinobots]] love Kup's war stories, lapping it up like cheap [[Energon]], and don't seem to mind when he inadvertently leaves a piece out or changes the story between retellings. Old memory chips'll do that to you. Other Autobots can be less patient, and Kup finds this disrespectful and irritating. If there's one thing Kup dislikes it's when young punks don't respect their elders. If they'd only listen they might learn something. [[Hot Rod]] is one of the worst offenders in this way, but he's a good ladbot and Kup will straighten him out sooner or later, even if it takes a tank of [[Sharkticon (G1)|Sharkticons]].

Occasionally, Kup's vast experience gets in his way. When a situation doesn't remind him of anything, he has trouble figuring out what to do. This doesn't happen very often.

Though it is not yet established when Kup joined the Earth-bound [[Autobot]]s, he was stationed at [[Autobot City]] during the 2005 invasion by the Decepticons. He was supervising construction efforts undertaken by Huffer and other workers when this work was interrupted by an impetuous drive-through by [[Hot Rod]]. Kup was determined to straighten out the adventure-seeking youth.

After the Decepticons began their attack, Kup and Hot Rod were trapped outside of Autobot City's fortress-like defenses. Thanks to an attempted hull breach by the Insecticons, Kup and Hot Rod entered a small gap in one of Autobot City's heavy blast doors -- in the process, Kup crunched [[Kickback (G1)|Kickback]]'s skull by running over it.

Inside the city, Kup and Hot Rod joined [[Arcee (G1)|Arcee]] and [[Springer]] in rigging an explosives launcher into place to help defend against the might of Devastator. With the arrival of [[Optimus Prime (G1)|Optimus Prime]] the next day, the tide of battle was turned and the Decepticons were defeated -- but at a terrible price.

Following the events of the movie, Kup served as an advisor to the newly-minted Rodimus Prime.

Years later on the planet [[Nebulos]], Kup encountered the Nebulan resistance against The Hive. Using Targetmaster technology stolen from the [[Decepticons]], Kup was partnered with the Nebulan Recoil, who apparently then chewed his ear off about their leader, Optimus Prime.

====Headmasters anime====
Kup and [[Fortress Maximus|Fortress]] were old friends.

===Marvel Comics continuity===

====Generation 1====
:''('''Note''': Events in italics occurred only in the Marvel UK books.)''

''Several hundred years ago, Kup became afflicted with combat fatigue, a loss of nerves and will brought on by too many millions of years of non-stop fighting. Considering himself a liability to the Autobot cause, Kup went into "retirement" -- wandering space alone in his starship, waiting for the end to eventually take him. He was shaken out of his misery when he crossed paths with a pair of Tyroxian fighters attempted to destroy a lone spacecraft. Spurred into action, Kup disabled the pursuers and brought the hunted pilot on-board, surprisingly finding him to be a fellow Autobot, Hot Rod. Hot Rod was thrilled to have found aid, and eagerly tried to recruit Kup into helping him return to Tyroxia and save his comrade [[Blurr (G1)|Blurr]], but Kup wasn't interested in getting involved any further, and only agreed to take Hot Rod back to Cybertron. The young punk reprogrammed the ship's navigation computers, though, and landed on Tyroxia to rescue Blurr by himself. Kup was finally shaken out of his funk when he realized that Hot Rod represented everything he used to be, and single-handedly saved Hot Rod and Blurr from their Tyroxian tormentors. His fighting spirit restored, Kup returned to Cybertron with the two Autobots, and joined Fortress Maximus' troop alongside his new allies.''

When Fortress Maximus became disheartened by the never-ending cycle of violence on Cybertron, he made plans to escape the war and set up a new life on the planet [[Nebulos]]. Kup and many of his top warriors chose to follow their leader to this new world, aboard the starship [[Steelhaven]]. Tragically, a series of incidents and misunderstandings brought the Autobots and Nebulans to the brink of war within days of their arrival. Kup was all for forcibly teaching the Nebulans some manners, but Fortress Maximus forbade it. In a desperate attempt to show their true intentions, Fort Max, Kup and several others disarmed themselves in front of the Nebulan gates. Furthermore, Fortress Maximus and four of his lieutenants beheaded themselves and agreed to leave their lifeless heads and bodies, as well as their various weapons, in Nebulan custody so that serious peace talks could be conducted. Kup took over command of the Autobot wilderness camp in Fortress Maximus' absence.

Matters quickly deteriorated after the arrival of the Decepticons, and two factions of Nebulans joined with both Autobots and Decepticons through bio-mechanical engineering to become Headmasters. Events turned against the Autobots, as [[Lord Zarak]], the Nebulan politician binary-bonded to Decepticon leader [[Scorponok (G1)|Scorponok]], was able to sway public opinion in favor of the Decepticons, labeling the Autobots as renegades and taking their Headmasters prisoner. Some Nebulans remained loyal to Fortress Maximus' partner, [[Galen]], and traveled to the Autobot camp to forge an alliance. Making use of a new form of bio-mechanical engineering, Kup and the other weaponless Autobots were teamed with Nebulan Targetmasters to replace their lost guns. Kup personally was teamed with Recoil. As the conflict continued, though, both camps of Nebulans began to realize the devastation they were causing to their homeworld, and decided to quit Nebulos and travel to Earth in search of other Transformers. The crew of Steelhaven soon found themselves linked with the Ark's Autobots, and under the overall command of Optimus Prime.

====Generation 2====

===Dreamwave comics continuity===
During the Cybertronian War's earlier years, a young Kup served alongside [[Ironhide]] and [[Wheeljack]] under the command of [[Grimlock]]. He appeared to be the only one who would speak up against Grimlock. When Optimus Prime and Megatron disappeared in a prototype Space Bridge Accident, Kup followed his unit to the Lightning Strike Coalition offshoot of the [[Autobot]] faction.
Along with [[Arcee]], [[Blaster]], [[Hot Rod]] and [[Wheelie]], Kup was part of a resistance group during [[Shockwave]]'s control of Cybertron.

===''Teletraan Go! Go!'' mini-comics===
[[Image:TGGKup.jpg|100px|thumb|"I'm a crazy old man! Pay attention to me!"]]

Kup stopped a feisty [[Wheelie (G1)|Wheelie]] from annoying [[Teletraan 15]]. When she thanked him, he recognized her, gave her a big old spine-cracking hug, reminisced about the time with the giant [[Ick-Yaks]], realized he actually had ''no idea'' who she was, and drove off.

:''('''Note''': In an aside, [[Teletraan 10]] boggles over the fact that Kup's weapon is a musket laser that fires hydrochloric acid over 8km, which makes absolutely no sense to her. Or anyone but [[Bob Budiansky]], probably.)''

{{-}}

===IDW comics continuity===
Kup is extremely old. In years past, he's trained dozens of Autobots, including [[Prowl (G1)|Prowl]], [[Springer (G1)|Springer]], [[Sideswipe (G1)|Sideswipe]], [[Sunstreaker (G1)|Sunstreaker]], [[Hot Rod (G1)|Hot Rod]], and even [[Optimus Prime (G1)|Optimus Prime]].

At some point, he and [[Outback (G1)|Outback]] crash-landed on a mysterious planet covered with radioactive crystals. Over time, Kup was slowly driven insane from the radiation; he talked to the dead corpse of Outback as though he were still alive (and used his disembodied arm as a club) and believed that zombies were attacking him when he shut down for the night. In reality, these zombies were fellow Autobots sent to rescue him, and Kup killed several of them before Springer managed to get a [[Trailbreaker (G1)|specialist]] in to extract the aging Autobot. Unfortunately, due to the damage Kup sustained from the radiation, his incompatibility with modern Transformers tech due to his age and stubborn unwillingness to upgrade, and a near-meltdown of his spark, he was placed on life support upon arriving aboard [[Ark-17]], and it is unknown if he will recover - physically or mentally. {{storylink|Spotlight: Kup}} Later, in the Spotlight: Optimus, it's stated that his physical injuries had been repaired, but the state of his mind was still in question.
ts is my opion however the planet he and outback landed on was one of the planets [[shockwave]] sent the ultra energon to and was changed without shockwave there.

==Toys==
===Generation 1===
*'''Kup''' (Autobot, 1986)
:''Japanese ID number:'' '''C-82'''

[[Image:G1_Kup_toy.jpg|thumb|left|"Back in my day, we hauled cargo all day long without a tailgate and LIKED it!"]]

: Kup transforms into a Cybertronic pickup truck (though how he is able to carry goods safely with no tailgate is a mystery). The entire front of the vehicle (including the windshield) is made out of die-cast metal. In robot mode Kup has full shoulder rotation, though the way his elbows are set up means he cannot make full use of their joints, but (somewhat) makes up for it with swivel wrists. His legs feature no articulation whatsoever. Maybe Hot Rod left a piece out. He is armed with a blue laser rifle. Early releases of Kup had metal rear wheels, while later releases replaced them with black plastic.

{{-}}

*'''Kup''' (Targetmaster, 1987)
:''Japanese ID number:'' '''C-113'''

: Kup (this time using all-plastic parts rather than die-cast) was slightly [[retool]]ed with larger fist-holes and a mounting point on his vehicle mode back-end in order to make him into a [[Targetmaster]]. He came with his Nebulan partner [[Recoil]] rather than his original blaster.

*'''Future Cybertron''' (Transformers Collection, 2005)
:''Japanese ID number:'' '''TF-20'''

: Targetmaster Kup was reissued in Japan, and like the "[[Transformers Collection]]" reissue of [[Hot Rod]], he came with his original metal parts restored, as well as both his partner Recoil ''and'' his original gun, which was slightly retooled to fit the larger weapon-mounting points. The set also came with a redecoed [[Wheelie]].

: This iteration of the mold was used to make [[Optimus Prime (G1) toys#Generation 1|Orion Pax]].

===Merchandise===

==Trivia==
* Check out the Kup toy's chest-sticker... it's got a pair of [[Floppy disk|5 1/4-inch floppy disk]] drives on it. Apparently, he can store up to two extra Transformers' brains.

* In the Japanese ''[[Binaltech Asterisk]]'' online manga, a little lost kitty was rescued from certain death (well, being stuck in a tree) by [[Ai Kuruma]] and [[Red Alert (G1)|Red Alert]]. That kitty was named [[Cha]] (Kup's Japanese name).

* Kup was given an [[homage]] in the ''[[Cybertron (toyline)|Cybertron]]'' toy line in the form of [[Brakedown (Cybertron)|Brakedown GTS]], a "powered-up" [[redeco]] of that series' cnatankerous old coot character, with the colors changed to resemble Kup's. Brakedown's vehicle mode also resembles Kup's Cybertronian vehicle mode from the War Within comic series.

* He claims on his MySpace page (see External links) that he's a [[Covenant|Pisces]].<ref>
Kup's Myspace page was created by [[Nick Roche]] to promote his IDW [[Spotlight: Kup]] story.</ref> It is best to remember, however, that at the time he wrote this he was utterly [[Galvatron (G1)|insane]].

Relatives

2007-12-01T17:46:44Z

130.13.217.164: /* Other relatives */

''This article is about the relative relationship in [[Transformer]] race.''

Throughout the [[Transformer]]s multiverse are many Transformers who consider themselves family and refer to each other as such. The most common case is when two Transformers regard each other as siblings: "brothers" (e.g. G1 [[Sideswipe]] and [[Sunstreaker]], or ''Robots In Disguise'''s [[Optimus Prime (RID)|Optimus Prime]] and [[Ultra Magnus (RID)|Ultra Magnus]]) or "sisters" ([[Roulette]] and [[Shadow Striker]]).

Given that Transformers are not organic life and do not [[reproduction|reproduce sexually]], the origin, distinction, and exact meaning of many of these terms is frequently unclear.

== Possible Explanations ==

[[Image:Bros.gif|thumb|right|150px|The Doublemint Twins they're not.]]

The [[Dreamwave]] [[More than Meets the Eye]] Guide provides a partial possible answer. According to the guide, when a spark naturally splits as it's being introduced to a protoform, it creates two robots who are "brothers" such as Sideswipe and Sunstreaker. When such a spark division is artificially induced, the less balanced and self-reliant pair created are referred to as "clones". (This definition of "brother" may or may not apply to RID Prime and Magnus, whose brotherhood was said to result from the special circumstance of having been created simultaneously by Alpha Trion).

However, the "[[Beast Era]]" widened the issue of reproduction with Rattrap referring to his "great-aunt" [[Arcee]] and in general the practice of Maximals and Predacons referring to the Autobots and Decepticons as their respective "ancestors", as well as themselves as being their "descendants", implying a direct genetic (for want of a better term) lineage. Various sources of debatable canonicity suggest that [[Optimus Primal]] is specifically descended from [[Optimus Prime]], usually through the phrase "his ancestor Optimus Prime" (though the events of [[Optimal Situation]] seem to prove that all Maximals could reasonably consider Optimus Prime their ancestor).
In the absence of sexual reproduction, the use and meaning of these genealogical references is difficult to explain. One possible explanation might be a situation such as when [[Airazor (BW)|Airazor]] is brought to life in Beast Wars. Her [[spark]] and [[protoform]] are heavily damaged, and Cheetor allows some of his parts to be used as replacements while [[Rhinox]] guides the procedure. To compare to humans, this is something like assisting with childbirth and donating blood or organs. It is unlikely that this happened enough to cause "descendants" as they are described, however.

Other family designations exist as well. [[Wheelie]] has "parents" who were lost in his crash on [[Quintessa]], according to some background material. The Mini-Con Twirl very specifically calls Falcia her "mother" (which Falcia ''hates'') and seems to treat Redline like a father, since the two's spark frame energies went into constructing her physical form. In the Armada cartoon, [[Side Swipe (Armada)|Side Swipe]] refers to [[Hot Shot (Armada)|Hot Shot]] as his brother after Hot Shot saves his life, indicating at least an understanding of the concept. The [[Unicron Trilogy]] universe has also used the term "cousin" for certain Transformers on occasion. The Japanese Generation 1 Victory manga features Decepticon wives and children. Even the live-action movie features an Optimus and Megatron who are brothers, and it is mentioned in the related Nintendo DS game that Megatron "took the spark" of their father.

[[Image:Novaprime.jpg|right|thumb|250px|Major points for not being named [[Nemesis Prime]].]]

:''Nova Prime is an [[Autobot]] in the [[IDW Publishing]] portion of the [[Generation 1]] [[continuity family]].''

'''Nova Prime''' was the predecessor to [[Sentinel Prime]]. An expansionist and a supremacist, Nova Prime believed that the Transformers were the greatest among all life forms, and thought they should bring their glory to the myriad of lesser races throughout the universe. Sounds [[Megatron (G1)|familiar]].

==Fiction==

===IDW comics continuity===
{{ongoing}}
Long ago in [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]]'s past, before the war, Nova Prime ordered the construction of the first [[Ark]]. Despite [[Omega Supreme (G1)|Omega Supreme]]'s objections, Nova deceived the [[Cybertronian]] populace into believing that the Ark was intended for exploration, rather than its true mission of conquest. Nova Prime disappeared along with the rest of the Ark's crew into an anomaly in the [[Benzuli Expanse]], and is presumed dead. {{storylink|Spotlight: Optimus Prime|Spotlight: Optimus Prime (flashback)}} Despite his aggressive intentions, these never came to light, and the Transformers honored Nova Prime's memory with a statue. {{storylink|Megatron Origin, Part 3}}

However, countless years later, when [[Optimus Prime (G1)|Optimus Prime]] downloaded himself into [[infraspace]] to survive an attack from [[Megatron (G1)|Megatron]] {{storylink|Escalation, Part 6}}, he sensed the presence of Nova Prime... And was filled with an incredible sense of dread. These feelings led Optimus Prime to seek information from Omega Supreme, who told Optimus of Nova's story. {{storylink|Spotlight: Optimus Prime}}

== Ideas of current condition ==
1.After the ship went through the black hole it is possible that upon entering the other side he was changed and he had found some way to harness the darkness to control reality and ultimatly destroy the universe and reshape it causing him to become a [[unicron]] in that universe.
2. Hes dead.

*According to Nova Prime's design sketches by [[Don Figueroa]] seen in the back of [[Spotlight: Optimus Prime]], the form seen in the story is Nova Prime's winged cab/trailer super robot. He also has a smaller robot mode consisting of only the cab.
