{{disambig3|Barricade}}&lt;br /&gt;
:&#039;&#039;Barricade is a [[Decepticon]] from the [[Movie (franchise)|2007 movie franchise]] in the [[Live-action film series|live-action film]] [[continuity family]]. He is also known as &#039;&#039;&#039;N.B.E. 04&#039;&#039;&#039;.&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:MovieBarricade render1.jpg|right|300px|thumb|&amp;quot;I&#039;m always the Bad Cop. And don&#039;t bother asking for the Good Cop. I killed him.&amp;quot;]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Barricade&#039;&#039;&#039; is apparently a complicated robot. He&#039;s considered &amp;quot;fractious&amp;quot; even by Decepticon standards, yet is willing to give [[Starscream (Movie)|Starscream]] the benefit of the doubt and follow where he leads, at least for the time being. Though not totally dedicated to the service of the Decepticons&#039; current leader, he is much more cautious and reserved about expressing mutinous dissent than say [[Blackout (Movie)|&#039;&#039;most&#039;&#039;]]. He believes that Starscream is vital in their search for [[Megatron (Movie)|Megatron]] and the [[AllSpark (Movie)|All Spark]]. In many ways this makes him Starscream&#039;s closest ally in the naturally combative Decepticon ranks. Then again, it&#039;s been said that he likes to trick people into trusting him, just so he can see their reactions when they find out just how much of a bad idea it was. As such, he has disguised himself as an Earth police car in an attempt to fool the humans around him.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If his attitude toward his fellow Decepticons is inconsistent, his attitude toward the [[Autobot|Autobots]] is not: kill them all. Barricade might not be as large as most of his peers, but he is every bit as deadly. He thoroughly relishes every chance in fighting the Autobots. He&#039;s smart enough to let one live if he thinks he or the Decepticons can use it to their advantage, but most of the time, they&#039;re dead before someone&#039;s even thought of a plan. &lt;br /&gt;

[[Image:Defiance3_BrawlCrankcaseBarricade.jpg|thumb|left|200px|Are you trying to out-complain the complainer?]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Many years in the past, Barricade was a member of [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]]&#039;s defense forces, under the command of Protector [[Megatron (Movie)|Megatron]]. After the discovery of a [[The Fallen|mysterious relic]], unknown alien hostiles attacked Cybertron. Megatron ordered Barricade and Scorponok to preform recon. {{Storylink|Defiance issue 1}} Following the battle, Megatron changed significantly, altering the military&#039;s mission from one of protection of [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]] to making war upon the hostile aliens and anybody who would stand in their way. {{Storylink|Defiance issue 2}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Barricade was sent on a mission to capture science division leader (and thorn in Megatron&#039;s side) [[Optimus Prime (Movie)|Optimus]] and eliminate his fellow scientists and the unwitting security team sent to arrest him. He and [[Crankcase (Movie)|Crankcase]] observed [[Brawl (Movie)|Brawl]] nailing the &amp;quot;traitors&amp;quot; with an explosive round, and he was eager to get into the fight. He was ordered back by the glory-hound [[Starscream (Movie)|Starscream]], but Barricade had the last laugh when the wily Optimus managed to bury the aerial forces under a mountain of rubble. After they were dug out, they all joined the rest of Megatron&#039;s new &amp;quot;Decepticon&amp;quot; faction. {{Storylink|Defiance issue 3}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
During the subsequent civil war, Barricade was one of the Decepticons under the command of Starscream at a battle outside of [[Tyger Pax]]. As they were mopping up the last remnants of Autobot resistance, Barricade amused himself by playing with the decapitated head of a fallen Autobot. When he saw the All Spark jettisoned into space, Barricade realized that Cybertron would soon die. Bonecrusher said to let it die, and he could join it. Barricade did not bring up the discussion again.  {{storylink|Planetfall}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ordered by Megatron to follow Optimus Prime&#039;s ship, Starscream hastily assembled a crew to go after them. Barricade not-exactly-quietly questioned the need to hurry, as he thought Megatron would have captured the All Spark by now and would have take care of the Autobots in time. He also questioned Starscream&#039;s truthfulness. Unfortunately, he was overheard by Starscream and was chastised for his big mouth. While pursuing the &#039;&#039;Ark&#039;&#039;, they were led into a trap and had to limp back to Cybertron for repairs. Once their ship was repaired, they continued on with their mission, landing on the [[Mars (planet)|fourth planet]] of the solar system where they detected the All Spark&#039;s trace energy pulse.  {{storylink|The Reign of Starscream Issue Number One|The Reign of Starscream issue 1}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Decepticons landed in the [[Earth]] nation-state of Afghanistan. During their attack on a nearby [[United States Military|US Military]] installation, Barricade used a facade of friendliness to trick nearby human soldiers into lowering their guard, whereupon he slaughtered them at point-blank range. Later, he was almost hit by a localized EMP weapon from a human, but it instead hit his comrade [[Wreckage (Movie)|Wreckage]].  {{storylink|Planetfall}}  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{note|&amp;quot;Planetfall&amp;quot;&#039;s depiction of Barricade&#039;s arrival on Earth in Afghanistan conflicts with IDW&#039;s own &#039;&#039;Prime Directive&#039;&#039; prequel comic, which implies he actually landed somewhere in North America, and it remains unexplained how the land-based Decepticons would later appear in America, given Blackout immediately leaves to attack [[SOCCENT Forward Operations Base|SOCCENT Qatar]] in this comic. However, this scene was later used in IDW&#039;s [[The Reign of Starscream]] movie sequel comic.}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
The Decepticon infiltration unit under the command of Starscream arrived on Earth in the year 2003. Barricade scanned a Saleen S281 police car, then destroyed the original human vehicle to cover his tracks, as did his fellow Decepticons when choosing their new forms. It is uncertain how he managed to scan what appears to be a 2006 model in 2003. Maybe he&#039;s just that good.   {{storylink|Movie Prequel issue 4|Prime Directive (IDW) issue 4}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Barricade tailed [[Bumblebee (Movie)|Bumblebee]] outside of [[Denver]], [[Colorado]] as the Autobot was eluding [[Sector Seven]] while working on a new lead on the [[Witwicky|Witwickys]].  {{storylink|Interlude}} Unfortunately Bumblebee got wind of him and escaped. A new opportunity presented itself when Bumblebee was lured into a trap by Sector Seven; trouble was, the rest of Starscream&#039;s team had been lured as well. Barricade suggested that they let the Autobot go to see where he led them, which Starscream agreed to, but told Barricade to make it look convincing.  {{storylink|Movie Prequel issue 4|Prime Directive (IDW) issue 4}}&lt;br /&gt;

{{note|&amp;quot;Transformers: Beginnings&amp;quot; is a condensed, Flash-animated retelling of the [[IDW Publishing|IDW]] [[Prime Directive (IDW)|Prime Directive]] Movie Prequel that is detailed above this section.}}&lt;br /&gt;

{{cleanup|May 2009|Needs expansion telling us of his adventures in the story, not a general description of what he&#039;s like in it.}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Barricade acted as pilot and chief science officer for the &#039;&#039;[[Nemesis (Movie)|Nemesis]]&#039;&#039;. Through this he apparently possessed an impressive &amp;quot;mastery of physics&amp;quot;, being very intelligent. He claimed to have chafed under Starscream&#039;s leadership, but was willing to tolerate him for the moment. Barricade spent most of his time rubbing everyone the wrong way and loving every minute of it. [[Optimus Prime (Movie)|Optimus Prime]] once said that Barricade could be as dangerous as [[Starscream (Movie)|Starscream]].  {{storylink|Ghosts of Yesterday}}&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:BarricadeVsSam.jpg|right|250px|thumb|Barricade negotiates an alternative to PayPal.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After being active on [[Earth]] for some time, Barricade arrived to pick up [[Frenzy (Movie)|Frenzy]] after the smaller Decepticon&#039;s attempt to hack into and sabotage the United States military network on [[Air Force One]]. Using data Frenzy had acquired, the two learned of [[Sector Seven]], &amp;quot;Project Iceman&amp;quot;, and [[Archibald Witwicky|Witwicky man]], the discoverer of the entombed [[Megatron (Movie)|Megatron]]. The duo were able to use the internet to learn of both Witwicky man&#039;s descendants, [[Sam Witwicky|ladiesman217]], and a pair of glasses that Megatron had accidentally marked with the location of the long-lost [[AllSpark (Movie)|All Spark]]. Frenzy declared that they needed to find ladiesman217, and Barricade moved out in search of him.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Movie Barricade defeat.jpg|left|250px|thumb|He got better.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Later, Barricade confronted ladiesman217 regarding his recent [[eBay]] auctions while the human was fleeing Bumblebee, whom the human mistakenly believed was out to harm him.  Ladiesman217 fell for Barricade&#039;s ruse, and requested the &amp;quot;officer&#039;s&amp;quot; help, only for Barricade to transform before him. As ladiesman217 fled, Barricade knocked him onto the hood of an abandoned car, then violently demanded information on eBay item 21153. Ladiesman217 and his [[Mikaela Banes|female friend]], who had been drawn into the encounter, managed to escape him when Bumblebee convinced the boy to trust him, and Barricade pursued both the Autobot and two humans to a junkyard. After temporarily losing and then regaining their position, he charged into battle, activating his mace/rotating blade, and dispatched Frenzy to chase down the humans. However, his battle with Bumblebee ended with Barricade heavily damaged. Considering the fact that Frenzy was decapitated, he got off lucky.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Decepticons highway.JPG|right|250px|thumb|Nope, nothing suspicious about this.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Evidently, though, he recovered, and was back to working order when Frenzy (who had survived and infiltrated Sector Seven) transmitted both Megatron and the All Spark&#039;s location to his fellow Decepticons. When the humans fled with the All Spark, Barricade joined in the pursuit along with [[Brawl (Movie)|Devastator]] and [[Bonecrusher (Movie)|Bonecrusher]]. Devastator soon broke off on an alternate route, while Barricade and Bonecrusher hit the freeway, making contact with the Autobot/human convoy. Barricade attempted to clear some room for the two Decepticons by activating his sirens; Bonecrusher simply rammed everything in his way. Ladiesman217 recognized Barricade, and warned that they were in danger. [[Optimus Prime (Movie)|Optimus Prime]], [[Ironhide (Movie)|Ironhide]], and [[Ratchet (Movie)|Ratchet]] aligned to block their access to Bumblebee, who contained the humans and the All Spark. He was never seen again... {{storylink|Transformers (2007)}}&lt;br /&gt;

Barricade was killed in the &amp;lt;strike&amp;gt;[[Mission City]]&amp;lt;/strike&amp;gt; [[Los Angeles]] battle and then resurrected as a zombie for a few minutes by Starscream.  {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 7|Starscream&#039;s Militia}}&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
{{notetitantlg}}&lt;br /&gt;
Barricade was part of two punitive Decepticon attacks: a raid on a supply convoy at Shreveport, [[Louisiana]] {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 16|Dark Spark}} and a solo strike on Cincinnati, [[Ohio]] as part of a &amp;quot;Stop supporting Autobots OR ELSE!&amp;quot; campaign. {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 23|Revolution Part 1}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When Starscream started open warfare, he did indeed make Barricade one of his generals. However, Barricade soon found himself bogged down in fighting [[Stockade (Movie)|Stockade&#039;s]] &amp;quot;New Decepticons&amp;quot;. {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 24|Revolution Part 2}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

[[Image:Barricade and Starscream ROS issue 1.jpg|right|200px|thumb|Elvis ain&#039;t dead!]]&lt;br /&gt;
During the motorway chase, Barricade attempted to close on Bumblebee, but was taken out by Ironhide, knocking him off the road and causing him to go offline. He was later reactivated by &amp;quot;Lord&amp;quot; Starscream, and suggested to his new leader that they should find [[Frenzy (Movie)|Frenzy]].  {{storylink|The Reign of Starscream Issue Number One|The Reign of Starscream issue 1}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He remained on Earth, watching over a Sector Seven research base.  {{storylink|The Reign of Starscream issue 3}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Barricade spied on the Autobots as they prepared to help [[William Lennox|Captain Lennox]] and [[Robert Epps|Sergeant Epps]] dispose of the Decepticons&#039; bodies. He amplified the conversation and transmitted it to whoever was listening—and, as it turned out, Starscream, having returned from Cybertron to Mars, was ready and willing to answer.  {{storylink|Alliance issue 1}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When more Decepticons under [[Soundwave (ROTF)|Soundwave]] arrived on Earth, Barricade provided them with intelligence on which Autobots they were facing. He continued to plague the Autobots and the new [[NEST]] team, escaping each time.  {{storylink|Alliance issue 4}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Barricade returned to Tranquility, where he captured Sam and interrogated him again by chaining him to a hook over a car compacter. He also sent a message to Bumblebee: &amp;quot;The All Spark for the boy.&amp;quot; Bumblebee came to the boy&#039;s rescue, eventually knocking Barricade into a pool of gasoline and firing on him, setting off a massive explosion. Surviving, Barricade drove off in car mode. {{storylink|Tales of the Fallen issue 1}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===&#039;&#039;The Veiled Threat&#039;&#039; prequel novel===&lt;br /&gt;
{{Note|The events of &#039;&#039;The Veiled Threat&#039;&#039; take place during [[IDW Publishing]]&#039;s &#039;&#039;Alliance&#039;&#039; comic.}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After the traitorous businessman [[Bruno Carrera]] and Starscream had trapped Optimus Prime in the Colosseum in Rome, [[Italy]], Starscream turned the situation over to Barricade, who was more than delighted to see his old enemy in such a prone state. However, before he could strike the final blow, a bunch of [[human]]s began attacking, which wouldn&#039;t have been a problem if they weren&#039;t equipped with the scientific genius of [[Kaminari Ishihara]] and [[Petr Andronov]], in addition to [[William Lennox]] and [[Robert Epps]] firing sabot rounds into him. He was about to stomp on the insects when Prime broke free of the trap and engaged him. Once the humans were clear, Optimus pulled a surprise move by jumping out of the pit and dumping rock on top of him. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Once he was buried, Optimus melted the top layer of rock, trapping Barricade long enough for the NEST team to defeat Starscream and take him in. Unfortunately, Barricade was nowhere to be found; instead, a passing crew working on the subway found a strange new tunnel, leading from the Colosseum to the center of a park. Whatever had dug the new passage overnight was nowhere to be seen. {{storylink|The Veiled Threat}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Titan Magazines ROTF comic===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{Note|The following details Barricade&#039;s tenure as letter-answerer on the Law and Disorder letters page.}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Lawanddisorder_barricade.jpg|left|300px|thumb|]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With Starscream suffering a nervous breakdown, Barricade took control of the letters page; however, the Autobots dispatched [[Ironhide (Movie)|Ironhide]] to co-run it, much to the Decepticon&#039;s irritance. He shares Starscream&#039;s contempt for &#039;&#039;you&#039;&#039;, the reader (#1), and continues the tradition of threatening violence against &#039;&#039;anyone&#039;&#039; who cosplays as an Autobot (#7). This, however, doesn&#039;t stop him bragging to Ironhide when the letters are pro-Decepticon, and at one point he held a popularity contest to see who the kiddies wanted to be &amp;quot;subjgated by this issue!&amp;quot; (#6).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Relations appear to have broken down between the Decepticons and [[DreamWorks]], as they&#039;re back to targeting Bay et al for their propaganda films (after a brief [[Revenge of the Fallen (film)#Titan Magazines Transformers movie comics|alliance]] with the second film). Barricade personally enjoyed the scene in the first film when [[Mojo|a dog]] peed on Ironhide though! (#1) Barricade won&#039;t even work with the film&#039;s tie-in media, refusing to allow his likeness to be used in one of the ROTF video games. (#4) He later decided fame was more important than principles though, submitting a script and auditioning for a part in the third film by threatening [[Michael Bay]] with death. (#8)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In the early days, he appeared to be separated from the rest of the Decepticons, as his knowledge on their current status is spotty; while he knows [[Wheelie (ROTF)|Wheelie]] has turned traitor, he seemed unaware that [[Ravage (ROTF)|Ravage]] had been terminated. (#4) He later re-established contact, being aware of [[Grindor (ROTF)|Grindor&#039;s]] status and [[the Fallen]]. (#7) He also has a &#039;&#039;shockingly&#039;&#039; bad knowledge of Transformers [[units of time]]. (#8)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He doesn&#039;t think much of Starscream&#039;s intelligence or ability to lead (a bit of a pisser when Starscream considered &#039;&#039;him&#039;&#039; to be 2IC material!), but &#039;&#039;much&#039;&#039; prefers him over Megatron. (#1) He once explained some of Megatron&#039;s flaws, only to get scared and state how he totally respects him &#039;&#039;really&#039;&#039;. (#3) He also dislikes [[Soundwave (ROTF)|Soundwave]], claiming the guy &#039;&#039;never&#039;&#039; pulls his weight and is just Megatron&#039;s fave. (#7) On top of that, while he follows the party line and claims the Decepticons have &amp;quot;policies&amp;quot; (#7), he&#039;s shown signs of discontent with being a Decepticon: the long hours, the lousy food, the admin work... (#5)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Barricade has watched the [[The Transformers (cartoon)|original 1980s cartoon]] (#3) and approves of humanity&#039;s fascination with giant robots. In contrast, he is &#039;&#039;completely&#039;&#039; bewildered by pop music. (#7)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He&#039;s got an eye for [[Female Transformer|the ladies]], making sure to flirt right back when one of them wrote into the letter&#039;s column looking to play &amp;quot;bad cop&amp;quot; with him. (#5)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Like Starscream before him, he somehow has awareness of [[Unicron]]. And Unicron gives him the shits. (#6)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He is fed up of Ironhide bringing up how Bumblebee kicked his arse, and is determined to get revenge on &amp;quot;that little yellow cretin&amp;quot;...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Games==&lt;br /&gt;
===&amp;quot;Flight of the Bumblebee&amp;quot; online game===&lt;br /&gt;
Barricade was one of a group of Decepticons who trapped Bumblebee in a canyon. He stood around on a rocky butte, walking back and forth and waiting for Bumblebee to drive up to him. When the Autobot dropped in, Barricade immediately opened fire, blasting Bumblebee continuously. Unfortunately, Bumblebee had the idea to shoot back, blasting him right out of the picture with just one shot.   {{storylink|Flight of the Bumblebee|Flight of the Bumblebee}}&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
====Autobot campaign====&lt;br /&gt;
Barricade was sent to Tranquility to hunt down Sam Witwicky and the glasses that held the location of the All Spark.  He attempted to capture Sam and Mikaela outside their high school, but Bumblebee stepped in. The humans fled for the nearby baseball field with Barricade in pursuit, but Bumblebee beat him to them, protecting them while they ran away again. He followed them to the power plant, but was once again foiled by Bumblebee and sent packing.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Later, in [[Mission City]], Barricade made one last grab for the All Spark after [[Starscream (Movie)|Starscream]], [[Blackout (Movie)|Blackout]] and [[Brawl (Movie)|Brawl]] had each fallen to the Autobots.  However, he was once again intercepted by Bumblebee, and finally defeated for good.  {{storylink|Transformers The Game (console)}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====Decepticon campaign====&lt;br /&gt;
Upon reaching Tranquility and choosing his alternate mode, Barricade attempted some recon, but encountered a squad of Autobot drones, a battle which spilled out to the local baseball field. Shortly afterwards, he was informed by Starscream that [[Frenzy (Movie)|Frenzy]] had information they needed, but the diminutive Decepticon had been captured by [[Sector Seven]] agents. Barricade tracked them to the power plant, then hounded the agents across town in their highly resistant van, wrecking every building in his path until Frenzy was recovered.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Finally on the trail of Sam, he was stopped cold by Sam&#039;s protector Bumblebee. Barricade got the upper hand, but the Autobot led him on a chase that ended in [[Bay Demolition|Bay&#039;s Demolition]] lot, and an ambush courtesy of a lot of Autobot drones.  Barricade overcame the odds, and hunted down Bumblebee once more, finally besting the Autobot and taking the glasses from Sam. Having located Megatron, Barricade relayed his findings to Starscream, who directed him to specific coordinates while coming to the aid of Bonecrusher and Brawl.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When the Decepticons converged on Mission City, Barricade was tasked with taking out the Autobot [[Jazz (Movie)|Jazz]]. He later stood in Megatron&#039;s presence after the All Spark had been recovered and [[Megatron (Movie)|Megatron]] ordered the Earth to be destroyed before they left it on their way to conquering all of known space.  {{storylink|Transformers The Game (console)}}&lt;br /&gt;

====&#039;&#039;Transformers: Autobots&#039;&#039;====&lt;br /&gt;
When Bumblebee went to investigate the source of an image found on the internet, he found Barricade waiting for him. Barricade blew up a nearby car and took off, sending out messages on the police radio that Bumblebee was responsible. After failing to lose Bumblebee in spite of all of Tranquility&#039;s police force being after him, he engaged him in combat. Unable to defeat Bumblebee, he hastily retreated. Later on, he encountered Bumblebee and Optimus Prime as the two were leaving Hoover Dam. With a large helicopter Decepticon at his side, he demanded the All Spark from Prime, not even caring about the consequences. He was killed, but revealed to Prime he was merely a distraction while other Decepticons freed Megatron from his icy prison.  {{storylink|Transformers Autobots/Decepticons|Transformers: Autobots}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====&#039;&#039;Transformers: Decepticons&#039;&#039;====&lt;br /&gt;
When the [[Create-A-Bot (Decepticon)|Decepticon Create-A-Bot]] arrived on Earth, his mentor, Starscream, directed him to rendezvous with Barricade, already active on the planet. Barricade was not enamored with the idea of a partner, feeling that the Create-A-Bot would only slow him down, but after putting the rookie through his paces, he permitted him to join him on his mission in the town of [[Tranquility]]. Barricade revealed to the Create-A-Bot what Starscream had not—that the signal which had brought the Decepticons to Earth had come from Megatron himself. The rookie dismissed Megatron as a relic, and was struck by Barricade for the insult. With some help from the rookie, Barricade discovered that the Autobot Bumblebee was already on Megatron&#039;s trail; Barricade pursued Bumblebee, defeated him in battle on the outskirts of Tranquility, and acquired the data he had gathered.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Now aware that the human military organization [[Sector Seven]] was holding Megatron, Barricade arranged for [[Blackout (Movie)|Blackout]] to the Create-A-Bot to a [[Qatar]] military base, where they and [[Brawl (Movie)|Brawl]] hacked Sector Seven&#039;s databanks. The file they obtained was brought back to Barricade in Tranquility for deciphering, and revealed that Megatron was being held by Sector Seven in the [[Hoover Dam]]. The Create-A-Bot suggesting relaying this to Starscream, but Barricade loudly refuted the idea, happy that the impending resurrection of Megatron would mean that he would no longer have to serve under a cowardly, back-stabbing bureaucrat like Starscream. Swayed by Barricade&#039;s words, the rookie revealed a fact that Starscream had told only him—that the All Spark was also present on Earth. Shocked by the revelation, Barricade realized that Starscream had been scheming to acquire the All Spark for himself, to ensure that not even Megatron could remove him from power. With the rookie now turned from Starscream and on his side, Barricade was able to liberate Megatron from Sector Seven, and the Decepticons pursued the Autobots, now in possession of the All Spark, back to Tranquility. During the battle, Starscream finally claimed the All Spark from Bumblebee, and Barricade stood against him, intent on bringing him in for treason. Alas, the All Spark-powered Starscream destroyed Barricade, but with in death, Barricade proved to the Create-A-Bot what it truly meant to be a Decepticon.  An interesting note: Barricade became one of the only Decepticons to transform while fighting in this game, and he was very effective at it.  {{storylink|Transformers Autobots/Decepticons|Transformers: Decepticons}}&lt;br /&gt;

===&#039;&#039;Transformers Revenge of the Fallen Decepticons&#039;&#039; (Nintendo DS)===&lt;br /&gt;
Despite not appearing in [[Revenge of the Fallen (film)|the movie]], Barricade still appears in the Decepticons version of the DS game. He did a good deal of [[energon (fuel)|energon]] collection for [[Soundwave (ROTF)|Soundwave]] and Starscream. Apparently, he also had the time to race [[Sideways (ROTF)|Sideways]] through a munitions factory, despite the ongoing war with the Autobots. Yeah. {{storylink|Revenge of the Fallen: Autobots/Decepticons|Revenge of the Fallen: Decepticons}}&lt;br /&gt;

: The smallest transforming version of the character, [[Legends Class|Legends]] Barricade features limited articulation and detail. In what could only be defined as an anomaly of physics, compared to the other Movie Legends, Barricade is quite close in appearance and transformation to the larger deluxe figure.

**&#039;&#039;Japanese ID Number:&#039;&#039; &#039;&#039;&#039;MD-02&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
**&#039;&#039;Accessories:&#039;&#039; Frenzy mini-figure&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Barricade transforms into an accurate [[wikipedia:Saleen|Saleen S281 Police  Cruiser]]. As with [[Bumblebee (Movie)|MOST]] deluxe-class cars in the &#039;&#039;Movie&#039;&#039; line, he features clear windows for his windshield and doors, but oddly his rear window is opaque black plastic. Stored inside the engine bay, behind the car&#039;s ram bar is a mini-figure [[Frenzy (Movie)|Frenzy]] disguised as Barricade&#039;s grill.  We say mini, but Frenzy would be about six feet tall, scale wise.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: In robot mode, Barricade quite faithfully reproduces the CGI design, though his chest cannot deform to the same extent. He features a reasonable amount of articulation with ball joints for his shoulders and upper legs, ratcheting and swivels for his elbows and double-jointed knees (although the knees make it difficult to properly align the upper and lower portions of his legs). Barricade has no neck joint as the two car hood halves slot into place between the bottom of the head and the plate on which it sits. Barricade does not have any [[Automorph Technology|Automorphing]] [[gimmick]] to speak of; in its place is a spring-loaded extending &amp;quot;punching&amp;quot; attack on his left arm.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: As with almost all Transformers toys issued over the last few years, a few of his transformation quirks are undocumented; in robot mode front wheel panels on his shoulders are ball-jointed, allowing one to position them in a manner similar to what is seen in the movie renders. Additionally, the sections that become his claws (apart from the thumb hinge) can swing up slightly to make themselves more pronounced, and spikes on the top of his feet can be swung up. His head is also able to be pulled up farther, allowing for a less &amp;quot;Hunchback of Cybertron&amp;quot; look, and panels just behind his neck resting on top of the hood to hold it there. &lt;br /&gt;

All the [[Gimmick|gimmicks]] remain the same, including his little pal [[Frenzy (Movie)|Frenzy]], who is now colored more [[FIRRIB|G1-accurate]] (as well as [[Show-accuracy|movie-accurate]] colored eyes not seen on any other Frenzy toy).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: Recon Barricade&#039;s license plate reads &amp;quot;SAGE2764&amp;quot;, a reference to the screenname of a member of a Chinese newsgroup used by [[Joe Kyde]] (who would later design the deco for Recon Barricade) to disseminate [http://tformers.com/Unknown-Megatron-Drawing-Possible-Movie-Design/6030/news.html hoax information] for a thesis project.&lt;br /&gt;

**&#039;&#039;Accessories:&#039;&#039; Sam Witwicky figure, Mikaela figure and Frenzy figure&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: This Screen Battles pack features a largely unchanged Deluxe class Barricade figure. The only real difference is the Frenzy mini-figure, which is now cast entirely in black plastic, sports &#039;&#039;no&#039;&#039; paint applications and is supposed to be stuck permanently inside Barricade&#039;s chest thanks to a new, additional piece of plastic (as a matter of fact, the Frenzy figure is also neither advertised on the packaging nor depicted in the instructions).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:This only applies to the Hasbro version, however—TakaraTomy&#039;s Japanese release of the pack features a Barricade that is identical to the single pack version, including an easily removable Frenzy figurine cast in grey plastic with painted red eyes.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The pack also comes with non-posable figurines of Sam Witwicky in a running pose, Frenzy menacing [[Sam Witwicky|Sam]] and [[Mikaela Banes|Mikaela]] holding the power saw she uses to attack Frenzy. The set is packaged in a special window box with a diorama depicting the battle between Barricade and Bumblebee.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:According to details listed in an official checklist on Hasbro&#039;s website&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;checklist&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[http://www.hasbro.com/transformers/default.cfm?page=Collectors/Checklist Hasbro Transformers Collectors Checklist]&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;, this pack was originally supposed to feature Sam with a bike, and Mikaela with a Scooter.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
: This Target exclusive features the Deluxe Class Barricade in unique cylindrical packaging, with the only difference from his standard release being that key robot mode parts are highlighted by the &#039;All Spark Blue&#039; color for no other reason than [[to sell toys]]. Interestingly, in what can only be explained as an &amp;quot;&#039;&#039;answer&#039;&#039;&amp;quot; to Recon Barricade&#039;s blue [[Frenzy (Movie)|Frenzy]], &#039;&#039;this&#039;&#039; release&#039;s Frenzy is cast in red plastic with a minor black color application to the chest area, making him now resemble [[Rumble (G1)|Rumble]]. Thanks to Hasbro, the debate [[FIRRIB|continues]]...  &lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
: &#039;&#039;This&#039;&#039; version of Deluxe Barricade features a slightly more [[Show-accuracy|movie-accurate]] deco, with additional &amp;quot;911&amp;quot; markings that were missing on earlier releases. However, confusingly his windows have a frosted paint deco applied to them for no apparent reason, other than to make the toy look &#039;different&#039;.&lt;br /&gt;

* &#039;&#039;&#039;Blade Shield Barricade&#039;&#039;&#039; (Fast Action Battler, 2007)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: Fast Action Battlers Barricade is similar to the regular Deluxe class toy. However, the details are simplified, and the proportions in both vehicle mode and robot mode are less realistic, generally skewed towards are more stylised and exaggerated appearance. Instead of the punching hand gimmick seen on the Deluxe class toy, FAB Barricade&#039;s left arm features a flip out arm extension with a shield made out of blades based on his spinning blades from the Movie.&lt;br /&gt;

* &#039;&#039;&#039;Barricade&#039;&#039;&#039; (Cyber Slammers, 2007)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Cyber Slammers Barricade is an &#039;&#039;amazingly cute&#039;&#039; Saleen S281 police car that transforms into an amazingly cute treacherous Decepticon pretending to be a cop. &#039;Slam&#039; his robot mode down into car mode and he rolls along for a while, then pops back up into robot mode. Like most Cyber Slammers, Barricade manages to cram most of his vehicle mode&#039;s major details into a compact, super-deformed version of that mode.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
: This adorable, pudgy version of Barricade&#039;s car mode zips forward with a little motor.  The robot mode Patrol Barricade pops up after a little while, rolling along. So cute! The colors are similar to Recon Barricade, but oddly enough, the scheme is different, and the markings are for a sheriff&#039;s car. &lt;br /&gt;

* &#039;&#039;&#039;Barricade&#039;&#039;&#039; (Robot Replica, 2007)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: A non-transforming action figure, [[Robot Replicas]] Barricade hews much closer to the CGI model of the character (albeit wrong paint job). With joints similar to the [[Revoltech]] series, he is also more posable than his transforming counterpart, plus features replacement arms that feature his &amp;quot;blender-blade tires&amp;quot; alternate hands briefly seen in the movie.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Barricade&#039;s shoulders/upper arms and shins (including the feet) are incorrectly assembled as compared to the CG design used for the [[Transformers (2007)|movie]]. This can easily be fixed due to the interchangability of the Robot Replica limbs. (Although the CG design raises the question how exactly his transformation in the movie is supposed to work. The markings on the arms are located on opposite sides of the body as compared to the vehicle mode, maybe the spin?)&lt;br /&gt;

* &#039;&#039;&#039;Barricade&#039;&#039;&#039; (2007)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: Made under license by [[RadioShack]]. Three-function infrared remote, in Barricade&#039;s signature colors, gives you control of the car with forward and reverse turn movement. More than just a vehicle styled after the Movie character, the car also transforms to robot mode. The transformation is very reminiscent of the Generation 2 [[Gobots (G2)|Gobots]], but the toy is an entirely new mould. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The top of the gun-shaped IR remote serves as a storage point for Barricade, but the remote can&#039;t stand freely so it&#039;s nearly useless for display. The tip of the gun&#039;s barrel can also be unscrewed to reveal a ballpoint pen, which... wait... what? It&#039;s actually just a pen cartridge which sorta hangs freely and is difficult to use for writing, because you have to hold it and support the entire gun&#039;s weight while you do.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Each of the Micro IR toys comes with a generic instructions sheet printed in black and white and showing the transformation for all three toys.&lt;br /&gt;

[[Image:Interrogator Barricade ROTF deluxe toy.jpg|right|thumb|300px|Comes with NIPPLE ARMS!]]&lt;br /&gt;
:This retool of 2007&#039;s Barricade was first officially revealed on Walmart&#039;s website &amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;[http://www.walmart.com/catalog/product.do?product_id=10973094 Interrogator Barricade listing and image at Walmart.com]&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;. He has the vehicle mode tool arms he used to threaten Sam Witwicky in the first movie, which take the place of Frenzy from the first toy. Surprisingly, his deco seems to be &#039;&#039;exactly the same&#039;&#039; as the original toy, ignoring the Premium Series update.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{-}}&lt;br /&gt;
====Human Alliance====&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;Barricade with Frenzy&#039;&#039;&#039; (2009)&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:ROTF_HumanAlliance_Barricade%26Frenzy.jpg|right|thumb|300px|]]&lt;br /&gt;
:[[Human Alliance]] Barricade comes with a posable figure of [[Frenzy (Movie)|Frenzy]], who can either sit inside the car in vehicle mode or be stored in Barricade&#039;s chest as with the Deluxe figure. Barricade also comes with two fold-out arms / weapons in vehicle mode that approximate the &#039;Interrogator Arms&#039; he uses to threaten Sam Witwicky.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In Barricade&#039;s very decent robot mode, his main weapon is a spinning spiked flail which replaces his left hand, similar to the one seen during his duel with Bumblebee in the first movie. Aside from the interrogator arms (which can also flip out in robot mode to act as a sort of weapon for a chest-mounted Frenzy) his only other weapon is a cannon / missile rack in his right shoulder, which Frenzy is supposed to be able to operate from his seat (see the stock photo). There seems to be a bit of forced perspective going on with that; the gun rack is too far from the seat for Frenzy to actually be able to reach. Barricade&#039;s eyes have red light-piping, and instead of a battle-mask, his mouth can be opened and closed by tilting the top of his head. The chest is also capable of more deformation than shown in the stock photo to make him more movie-accurate, by angling the two bumpers up and adjusting the tilt of the grille.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There&#039;s something odd going on with his hips; they only come out to a 45° angle, which prevents his legs from being fully straightened. The socket is capable of the full rotation, though, and the blocking plastic could be removed with a craft knife.&lt;br /&gt;

[[Image:Movie UnleashedTurnarounds BlackoutBarricade.jpg|right|150px|thumb|Invading Australasia NOW!]]&lt;br /&gt;
: The Blackout and Barricade turnaround is a 3D sculpture of the two characters in both robot mode emerging from rubble and explosions, with a movie-accurate sculpt (compared to the various transforming toys.) The &#039;turnaround&#039; aspect of these sculptures simply means one can turn the piece around to display a raised-relief of the movie-style Decepticon sigil instead.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: This product&#039;s release was cancelled for the US market, but was released in Australia and in Asia.&lt;br /&gt;

==Second Life avatars==&lt;br /&gt;
There is a full replica of the Sector Seven base which contains a giant discussion room where Michael Bay held a question board in Second Life. This room contains a giant frozen Megatron replica and free avatars of both Bumblebee and Barricade. Both freebees are non-transforming. However, some sellers have created a transforming version.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Trivia==&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Movie Barricade finalappearance.jpg|right|200px|thumb|Barricade pulls everyone over for &#039;&#039;driving on the wrong side of the road.&#039;&#039;]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Barricade&#039;s disappearance from the film is puzzling.  It appears he was originally meant to be destroyed, as both the novel and comic adaptations of the movie depict his destruction by [[Optimus Prime (Movie)|Optimus Prime]], who had both destroyed Bonecrusher and was delayed in joining the humans and fellow Autobots. (Alternatively the children&#039;s chapter book adaptation of the film &#039;&#039;[[The Transformers Quest for the Allspark]]&#039;&#039; describes Barricade as being destroyed by the US military.) Regardless, in the movie proper, Barricade simply does not appear again after Bonecrusher transforms. At the time, his fate caused a great deal of speculation. Since then, however, he has appeared in &#039;&#039;[[The Reign of Starscream]]&#039;&#039;, &#039;&#039;[[Alliance (comic)|Alliance]]&#039;&#039;, and &#039;&#039;[[Tales of the Fallen]]&#039;&#039;, although it remains to be seen whether he&#039;ll reappear in the movies proper.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Barricade-comicsadaptation-death.jpg|right|200px|thumb|F*** tha poh-leece!]]&lt;br /&gt;
*Writer [[Roberto Orci]] stated in a message board Q&amp;amp;A session that Barricade&#039;s disappearance from the remainder of the film is a &amp;quot;thread for Movie 2&amp;quot;.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;[http://boards.transformersmovie.com/showpost.php?p=384946&amp;amp;amp;postcount=33 Roberto Orci on Barricade&#039;s fate in the movie, at the official movie boards]&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Two years later, he stated that he honestly couldn&#039;t remember the reason why Barricade didn&#039;t show up in &#039;&#039;[[Revenge of the Fallen (film)|Revenge of the Fallen]]&#039;&#039;, even though it was considered having him return.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;[http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/transformers-movie-discussion/180451-welcome-mr-roberto-orci-you-may-ask-him-questions-283.html#post3785383 Orci&#039;s Q&amp;amp;A at TFW2005]&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* An early version of the script featured Barricade and [[Frenzy (Movie)|Frenzy]] as one and the same character, named &amp;quot;[[Soundwave (ROTF)|Soundwave]]&amp;quot;. He would have infiltrated the CIA headquarters (rather than Air Force One) in the form of a &amp;quot;portable stereo&amp;quot; and then transformed (and size-shifted) into a Humvee for his escape.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;early&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Details from an early script draft [http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/showpost.php?p=2213120&amp;amp;amp;postcount=297 summed up here], [http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/showpost.php?p=2214148&amp;amp;amp;postcount=303 confirmed as authentic by Roberto Orci here].&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*[[Prowl (Movie)|Prowl]] was originally part of the Autobot line up for the movie, but was removed, as the writers loved the perverse idea of Barricade becoming a police car. This represents quite a step within any/all Transformers continuities, as a Decepticon has never before taken on a form (most) humans could so easily &amp;quot;trust&amp;quot;, in a sense. &amp;lt;s&amp;gt;Sorry, Prowl, better luck [[Revenge of the Fallen (film)|next time]].&amp;lt;/s&amp;gt; Uh, [[Transformers 3|third time]]&#039;s a charm?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*An early working name for Barricade was &amp;quot;Brawl&amp;quot;&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;barribrawl&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[http://www.tfw2005.com/transformers-images/events/Botcon-2007/Hasbro-Tour/PICT5108.JPG.html?g2_imageViewsIndex=1 Early design for Barricade with working name &amp;quot;Brawl&amp;quot; shown during the BotCon 2007 Hasbro Tour]&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;, which was later given to [[Brawl (Movie)|another movie character]] (but not in the movie itself).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Early concept art for Barricade&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;barribrawl&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[http://www.tfw2005.com/transformers-images/events/Botcon-2007/Hasbro-Tour/PICT5108.JPG.html?g2_imageViewsIndex=1 Early design for Barricade with working name &amp;quot;Brawl&amp;quot; shown during the BotCon 2007 Hasbro Tour]&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; also suggests that he was originally going to transform into a white and black Crown Victoria (somewhat akin to Prowl&#039;s original G1 color scheme). Hasbro, continuing to capitalize on unused concepts/ideas, had Recon Barricade&#039;s redeco vaguely mirror the Vic&#039;s deco.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Movie2007 Barricade carweapon.jpg|thumb|200px|]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* During the rather truncated chase scene between Barricade and Bumblebee in the 2007 &#039;&#039;Transformers&#039;&#039; movie, Barricade was to deploy some serrated drill-like missiles from his hood and fire them at the fleeing Autobot. Though these weapons were constructed and fitted to one of the Barricade prop vehicles, this scene was ultimately cut, explaining the abrupt shift to night time at the conclusion of the chase. Until artist [[Sean Haworth]] uploaded a photo of the weapon prop onto his website, the only official proof of the existence of these weapons was page 12 of IDW Publishing&#039;s [[Movie Adaptation Issue Number Two|Movie Adaptation issue 2]] and the RadioShack &#039;&#039;XMODS® Evolution&#039;&#039; Barricade radio control car&#039;s weapons and light uppgrade kit.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* The [http://www.saleen.com/transformers.htm promotional Saleen S281E cars] that appeared at events and premieres featured the slogan &amp;quot;Power in the hands of a few&amp;quot; rather than the &amp;quot;To punish and enslave&amp;quot; motto, as well as Saleen decals rather than the Decepticon decals seen in the movie. Hmmm... &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* The [[IDW Publishing|IDW]] &#039;&#039;[[Prime Directive]]&#039;&#039; Prequel &#039;&#039;seems&#039;&#039; to contradict the very existence of his alternate mode, since the Decepticons were depicted as having come to Earth in 2003, yet his alternate mode is a 2006 model car. However, a little-known fact is that the Mustang design that would eventually be the 2006 model debuted sometime in 2003, with police car modifications showing up in car shows not long after. It could very well be that, similar to when/how Jazz scanned a Solstice in a dealership late at night, Barricade scanned a Police Mustang in one such car show display after-hours, explaining why there were &amp;quot;no witnesses&amp;quot; after he assumed this form &#039;&#039;and&#039;&#039; why his police deco has no state or city markings/I.D. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*In an act of both love for his child and extreme fanwank, Jessie Vigil from New Mexico turned his own Ford Mustang into a homage of Barricade&#039;s alt-mode, right down to Decepticon symbol and the sinister twist on the LAPD motto. Though this has brought the ire of the New Mexico police upon him, let&#039;s just concentrate on the fact of how insanely cool this is. His kid is one lucky &#039;&#039;Transformers&#039;&#039; fan.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*A common misconception among fans is that Barricade&#039;s Saleen Mustang alternate mode was spotted on the set of &#039;&#039;[[Revenge of the Fallen (film)|Revenge of the Fallen]]&#039;&#039;. &#039;&#039;&#039;This is not true.&#039;&#039;&#039; In fact, a truck transporting three &amp;quot;Barricade&amp;quot; prop vehicles was spotted in Culver City, California, in March 2008, more than &#039;&#039;two months&#039;&#039; before principal shooting for &#039;&#039;Revenge of the Fallen&#039;&#039; started.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;vehspotted&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[http://www.superherohype.com/news/transformersnews.php?id=6980 Superhero Hype reporting on the spotting of Barricade vehicles in March 2008]&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
