:''Tidal Wave is a [[Decepticon]] from the [[Unicron Trilogy]] series. He took the name '''Mirage''' after he took a new body.''

[[Image:TidalWave-PS2scale.jpg|right|thumb|300px|Oh son of a...]]

'''Tidal Wave''' is a powerhouse, one of the largest Decepticons under [[Megatron (Armada)|Megatron's]] command. His power is backed up by a brain that doesn't exactly run at optimal speeds; he's not so much stupid as he is single-minded and easily frustrated. In battle he is merciless, an unyeilding engine of destruction.

He is unquestionably loyal to Megatron and his ideals, and will quickly sign up with anyone that promises power to the Decepticon cause.

Tidal Wave's [[Mini-Con]] partner is [[Ramjet (Armada)|Ramjet]]

''Japanese name:'' '''Shockwave''' (''Armada''), '''Shock Fleet''' (''Energon'', Mirage body)

==Fiction==
===Animated Continuity===
====''Armada''====
'''Voice actor''' [[Doug Parker]] (US) [[Jin Yamanoi]] Japan

Tidal Wave was originally brought to [[Earth]] by the [[Decepticon]] stratigist [[Thrust (Armada)|Thrust]] in an attempt to bolster the Decepticon forces so that they could obtain the [[Requiem Blaster]]. Thrust claimed Tidal Wave was a general, an unsubstantiated claim that seems rather out of place considering Tidal Wave's... lack of grace. Although he often appeared stupid and lumbered about, Tidal Wave provided immense firepower and a combiner addition to [[Megatron (Armada)|Megatron]] and proved to be a loyal soldier throughout the campaign.

Tidal Wave was present at the meeting between the [[Autobots]] and [[Decepticons]] during the [[Unicron Battles]] in which the two sides formed a temporary truce, notably shaking hands with [[Jetfire (Armada)|Jetfire]].

====''Energon''====
'''Voice actor''' [[Doug Parker]] (US) [[Jin Yamanoi]] Japan

After the end of the Unicron Battles, Tidal Wave loyally followed [[Megatron (Armada)|Galvatron]]'s last request - that the Decepticons remain at peace with the Autobots. During the ten year period that followed, Tidal Wave somewhere along the line changed not only his color palette but his occupation - instead of being a warrior, he was now a guardian of the [[energon]] mines in the Sol system's asteroid belt.

Tidal Wave's post was one of the first targets of the [[Terrorcon (Energon)|Terrorcon]] hordes. After being attacked and abducted, he was brought to [[Scorponok (Energon)|Scorponok]] and [[Alpha Quintesson]]'s base of operations, where they convinced him to side with them by promising to revive Megatron. Although he clearly disliked Scorponok, Tidal Wave carried out orders in attacking other energon reserves run by the Autobots until Megatron returned. Following this, he continued raiding Autobot bases, only under Megatron's orders.

Tidal Wave would later show disdain for the madman [[Decepticon]] recruit [[Shockblast]]. During a battle on Cybertron, an [[energon tower]] collapsed on top of Tidal Wave due to a shot from Shockblast. Megatron called for a retreat and hauled Tidal Wave's damaged body back into space, where the giant Decepticon was reformatted into "Mirage".

Mirage traded his gigantic, hulking body for a smaller, sleeker, and speedier form. He also apparently gained an upgrade in intelligence, although he also started to buddy up with [[Demolishor]] and [[Cyclonus (Armada)|Snow Cat]] to form a comedy relief trio. He continued to serve Megatron throughout the war for [[energon]], even gaining what appeared to be a romantic infatuation with him.

When Galvatron flung himself into the energon sun to destroy [[Unicron]]'s spark, Mirage loyally followed after him and ended his life.

''('''Note''': Throughout the ''Armada'' and ''Energon'' cartoons, Tidal Wave/Mirage had the habit of repeating his name as a sort of battle cry. This, unsurprisingly, did not help deter his reputation as an idiot.)''

===Dreamwave Comics continuity===
====''Armada''====

Tidal Wave was little seen in the ''Armada'' comic from Dreamwave, appearing only in a panel or two in the final story.

====''Energon''====
In ''Energon'', Tidal Wave was recruited by [[Scorponok (Energon)|Scorponok]], joining the [[Terrorcon (Energon)|Terrorcon]]s. While he went on several raids and missions with the Terrorcons, it became clear to him that he wasn't the most respected of the team. [[Alpha Quintesson]], however, saw something in him, and reformatted him into Mirage, noting as he did so that Scorponok had fallen out of [[Unicron]]'s favor.

===Playstation 2 Video Game===
[[Image:TidalWave-PS2movie.png|thumb|left|How's the weather down there?]]

Tidal Wave, in his combined battleship mode, was stationed as a relay and refuel point off a small chain of islands in the Mid-Atlantic. The [[Autobot]]s made their way inside him to take out the [[Decepticlone]] platoons inside and destroy him, but discovered that Tidal Wave wasn't merely a transport. They escaped just in time to avoid being crushed as Tidal Wave transformed into his titanic robot mode.

Tidal Wave walked around the island chain in the deep waters, unloading volleys of missiles, lasers, and the occasional [[Jet Sniper]] on the tiny-by-comparison Autobots. Despite his impressive size, firepower, and nigh-impenetrable armor, the Autobots mamaged to do enough damage to Tidal Wave's one weak point -his face- to cause a chain reaction that caused multiple exlposions inside him, sending him falling face-first to the ocean floor.

*'''Tidal Wave with Ramjet''' (Ultra-Con, 2003)
:''Japanese ID number:'' '''MD-06'''

: Tidal Wave is a robot that is made up of three different aquatic vehicles; an aircraft carrier, a double-bowed battleship, and a troop-landing craft. All three can combine to form a single gigantic warship, which from there can transform to robot mode ''without'' having to separate. Each smaller craft has its own gimmick; the carrier has a working storage elevator for Tidal Wave's [[Mini-Con]] partner [[Ramjet (Armada)|Ramjet]], the battleship has Mini-Con [[Powerlinx]]-activated swiveling cannons (also usable in robot mode), and the landing craft opens up to reveal seats for Mini-Cons to sit on.

: The [[Takara]] and [[Hasbro]] versions are considerably different, even through they only have a ''single'' difference. The Takara version uses purple plastic in the place of Hasbro's green. While this makes the Takara version somewhat more like the show portrayal, the color layouts are still off.

*'''Tidal Wave with Ramjet''' (Ultra, 2004)
:''Japanese ID number:'' '''SD-04'''

:Tidal Wave's ''Armada'' toy was [[redeco]]ed for the early part of ''Energon'', with "energy" patterns resembling stylized lightning bolts painted across it. Several portions of his body were cast in transpartent green plastic, suggesting that his body was now infused with Decepticon-energy [[energon]].

[[Image:22299-r.jpg|thumb|left|125px|He went from a boat to a ferry.]]

*'''Mirage''' (Mega, 2004)
:''Japanese ID number:'' '''SD-15'''

:Later, Tidal Wave was released under the name '''Mirage''' as a sleek assault speedboat with multiple spring-loaded missile launchers, as well as fold-out wings for his "Hyper Mode". The initial releases of Mirage were one-per-case, and part of a wave that saw limited distribution due to a glut of early product on the shelves. However, Mirage was later put into "Mega-Buy" multi-packs at a buy-one-get-one-free price at numerous chains, including Toys 'R' Us and Wal*Mart, relieving much of the demand for the item.

: This mold was also [[redeco]]ed into [[Dreadwing (Energon)|Dreadwing]].

Thrust (Armada)

2006-11-17T04:52:21Z

152.18.54.136: /* ''Armada'' */

{{disambig3|Thrust}}

:''Thrust is a [[Decepticon]] from the [[Armada]] portion of the [[Unicron Trilogy]] continuity family.''

[[Image:Thrust-AR-DVD.jpg|300px|right|thumb|Sraast?]]

'''Thrust''' is one of [[Megatron (Armada)|Megatron]]'s higher-ranking Decepticon soldiers. His occasional [[Mini-Con]] partner is [[Inferno (Armada)|Inferno]], plus sometimes he commands the [[Air Military Mini-Con Team]].

''('''Note''': Thrust's personality varied signifigantly between the comic and cartoon, see entries below for details.)''

==Fiction==
===Animated continuity===
====''Armada''====
:''Voice actor:'' [[Colin Murdoch]] (US) ??? (Japan)

In the cartoon, Thrust was a renowned tactician who joined [[Megatron (Armada)|Megatron]] on [[Earth]] in an attempt to improve his soldiers' relations. Thrust led the Decepticons to some short victories, but was quickly dethroned of his rank after his failures began to stack up. Hated by all the other Decepticons due to his superior attitude, Thrust began to shrink into himself and got more desperate to prove his power.

Eventually, Thrust joined [[Sideways]] with the lure of ultimate power, and managed to steal the three [[Mini-Con]] weapons that were the keys to reactivating [[Unicron]]'s body. Thrust met his demise when he demanded Unicron attack his former master, Galvatron, only to have Unicron act totally unaware of Thrust's presense. Thrust fell into a seam on Unicron's surface which began to tighten and close as Unicron moved, and was crushed to death as Galvatron walked away.

===Dreamwave Comic continuity===
====''Armada''====
Thrust was a somewhat cowboy-like entity that served loyally the Decepticons in the comics continuity. He was devoted to Megatron, and followed his orders faithfully. Thrust first appeared via [[transwarp]] from [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]], carrying rocket boosters so the Decepticons could fly to the moon and capture the Mini-Cons stationed there.

Later, Thrust was sent to northern Alaska to back up [[Cyclonus (Armada)|Cyclonus]], who was there to retrieve a fallen Mini-Con escape pod. First Thrust took a torch-blast to the face from [[Dune Runner]] of the [[Adventure Mini-Con Team]], who was there to save his allies. Then he was knocked around by Cyclonus, who was feeling the effects of a triple-[[Powerlinx]] with the entire [[Destruction Mini-Con Team]], which began to burn out his circuits and drive him mad with pain. When he finally came to, between Cyclonus' breakdown, the arrival of the Autobots, and [[Megatron (Armada)|Megatron]] using an orbiting [[solar scalpel]] to melt the ice that buried the escape pod, Thrust decided maybe he'd better get the heck outta Dodge.

Later, Thrust followed [[Starscream (Armada)|Starscream]] to a building lot in San Fransisco, to investigate a weird [[transwarp]] disturbance. He got there just in time to get shot down by [[Galvatron (G1)|a herald of Unicron]], who was seeking the refugee [[Mini-Con]] [[Over-Run (Armada)|OVer-Run]].

When Megatron left to attack the Autobot base on Earth, Thrust was left behind to guard their [[Silver Ridge]] headquarters. He quickly had the crap kicked out of him by the ''other'' heralds of [[Unicron]]. Not a fatal beating, though, as he was repaired in time to journey back to Cybertron and face the planet-eater.

====''Energon''====
After the destruction of Unicron and the apparent death of Megatron, Thrust became a security officer in the new peacetime. He joined [[Hot Shot (Armada)|Hot Shot's]] unit and defended Toronto from the [[Terrorcon (Energon)|Terrorcon]] [[Divebomb (Energon)|Divebomb]] clone-hordes when they attacked Earth. When [[Megatron (Armada)|Megatron]] reappeared, Thrust tried to rejoin him, but Megatron completely ignored him, warping to his next destination.

==Toys==
===Armada===
*'''Thrust with Inferno''' (Deluxe, 2003)
:''Japanese ID number:'' '''MD-05'''

: Thrust transforms into a plane of undertermined model with an odd VTOL fan in the center of its body. In jet mode, he has two pressure-launch missile launchers, and a space to store his Mini-Con partner Inferno in his (Inferno's) truck mode. Aside from his robot mode, he also has an "assault" robot mode, which turns his torso around 180 degrees and extends his winged backpack; attaching a Mini-Con to the [[Powerlinx]] plug on his chest and pushing it up and down causes the backpack to move as a spinning blade.

: This mold was also used to make ''[[Universe]]'' [[Sunstorm (Universe)|Sunstorm]].

*'''Thrust with Micron Air Military Team''' (Multi-pack, 2003)
:''Japanese ID number:''

: In Japan, Thrust was available both as an individual (well, with Inferno) and in a larger boxed set that also included the [[Air Military Mini-Con Team]]. There are no notable difference between the Japanese and US releases.

*'''Powerlinx Thrust with Powerlinx Inferno''' (Deluxe, 2003)

: Part of the later-series "Powerlinx" line of [[redeco]]s, Powerlinx Thrust got a new color scheme that was a "reversal" of the [[Generation 1]] "[[conehead]]" [[Dirge (G1)|Dirge]], primarily light brown with dark blue and black accents.

: The packaging for this release, however, showed him in a color scheme more like his [[Thrust (G1)|G1 namesake]], burgundny with black (and some bone-white accents). His coloration was changed to the brown-and-blue too late to change the packaging photography.

: Later on, [[Takara]] produced this red color version of Thrust as a "[[USA Edition]]" exclusive, though reportedly some were sold at retail in Israel, of all places.

Thundercracker (Armada)

2006-11-17T04:50:15Z

152.18.54.136: /* ''Cybertron'' */

{{disambig2|the Unicron Trilogy Decepticon|the Generation 1 Decepticon|Thundercracker (G1)}}

:''Thundercracker is a [[Decepticon]] in the [[Armada]] and [[Cybertron]] portions of the [[Unicron Trilogy]] continuity family.''

[[Image:CybThundercracker.jpg|250px|right|thumb|''This'' hick's shotgun is ''built-in''.]]

'''Thundercracker''' suffered from low self-esteem and longed for approval from authority figures to validate his existence. He was willing to work as hard as necessary to gain attention and praise from [[Megatron (Armada)|Megatron]], but when all his efforts were ignored or taken for granted, he grew frustrated. Thundercracker felt the need to engage in ever more risky and reckless behavior in an attempt to gain Megatron's notice. Many predicted this would lead to his destruction.

When next we see Thundercracker it is over ten years later, loyally serving under [[Starscream (Armada)|Starscream]] during the search for the [[Cyber Planet Key]]s. In the intervening years he became something of a jokester and goofball. This has often gained him the attention that he craves. Though frequently, especially when Megatron is the brunt of the joke, it is far from positive attention. Thundercracker doesn't seem mature enough to tell the difference, but he does know when to get the smelt out of Decepticon HQ before Megatron looks for someone to pummel.

''('''Note''': the [[Dreamwave]]'' More Than Meets The Eye ''bio compilation for the Armada series portrays Thundercracker very differently, as a former Decepticon who left the army centuries ago. However, this does not seem to mesh with the glimpses of unreleased'' [[Energon (franchise)|Energon]] ''comic issues where Thundercracker, along with several other Armada-series characters, show up in the present day.)''

==Fiction==
===Animated continuity===
====''Armada''====
The character "'''Thundercracker'''" is never seen in the Armada cartoon. When Starscream gains his [[Powerlinx]] coloration, however, he happens to look just like Thundercracker. In ''[[Armada]]'' (although not ''Micron Legend'') he specifically says "I look like Thundercracker," with a clear tone of distaste, proving that, although he is not seen, ''Armada'' Thundercracker must exist in this continuity as well and is probably a goober.

====''Cybertron''====
:''Voice actor:'' [[Mark Oliver]] (US) ??? (Japan)

In ''Galaxy Force'', he has a fetish for extravagant special attacks such as "''Sure Kill! Super Electric Lightning Shock Electric Thundercracker Punch!''" His accent in the dub is cowboy-like, reminiscent of [[Quickstrike]].

===Armada===
*'''Thundercracker with Zapmaster''' (Maxcon, 2003)

: Thundercracker is a [[redeco]] of ''Armada'' [[Starscream (Armada)|Starscream]], transforming into a Cybertronic fighter jet. He is something of a rarity in the Armada line, in that he is a redeco that is a new, separate character rather than a "[[Powerlinx]]" upgrade of an existing character. He came with the [[Mini-Con]] [[Zapmaster]], who was specially designed to fit between his flip-out cannons, and could also be stored on the underside of Thundercracker's nosecone in jet mode.

: This mold was [[retool]]ed to make ''Armada'' [[Skywarp (Armada)|Skywarp]] and ''[[Universe]]'' [[Ramjet (Universe)|Ramjet]].

:''('''Note''': In Japan, Thundercracker's toy is simply a "powered up" version of Starscream.)''

*'''Thundercracker''' (Built to Rule, 2003)

:For the ''[[Built to Rule]]'' line, Thundercracker was once again a redeco, a new-color version of the Starscream set. He was one of the last of the Transformers ''Built To Rule'' toys released at wide retail.

===Cybertron===
*'''Thundercracker''' (Deluxe, 2005)
: ''Japanese ID number:'' '''GD-02'''

: Part of the first wave of the ''[[Cybertron (frnachise)|Cybertron]]'' series, Thundercracker transforms into an SU-37 fighter jet. Inserting a [[Cyber Planet Key]] into his rear fuselage pops up the back panel, revealing a spring-loaded missile launcher. This assembly becomes his left forearm in robot mode. He came with a silver-bordered [[Earth]]-style Cyber Planet Key; the [[Hasbro]] release has the [[Cyber Key Codes|Key Code]] "'''d98d'''" [[tampograph]]ed on the back of it.

: This mold is also used by ''Cybertron'' Skywarp.

*'''Thundercracker''' (Legends of Cybertron, 2006)

:A smaller, simplified version of the deluxe toy was released in the fourth wave of the ''[[Legends of Cybertron]]'' line.

: This mold was used to make ''[[Classics (2006)|Classics]]'' [[Jetfire (G1)|Jetfire]].

[[Image:Blurr-AR-DVD.jpg|300px|thumb|right|Raise your hand if you're sure!]]
'''Blurr''' is a serious minded, yet highly competitive warrior. He has a friendly rivalry with [[Hot Shot (Armada)|Hot Shot]] and awkwardly avoids the annoyingly nerdy [[Side Swipe (Armada)|Side Swipe]], who embarrasses him with his idol worship.

''Japanese name:'' '''Silverbolt'''

==Fiction==
===Animated continuity===
:''Voice actor:'' [[Brian Drummond]] (US) [[Isshin Chiba]] (Japan)
Blurr is a Lt. rank soldier who served duty on the wartorn planet Duke.
While fighting on Cybertron, Blurr encountered a captured Sideswipe in the distant past, saving him from a rope trap. On Earth, Blurr served under Optimus Prime in the mini-con hunt, and eventually the Unicron Battles.

Blurr is described as a racer with a gruff serious personality. He doesn't like small talk and prefers to keep himself busy working. Blurr has a dislike for the children and especially Sideswipe. Blurr relates most to Scavenger, as the two are very similar.

In this mode, plugging his Mini-Con partner Incinerator into the space under Blurr's spoiler causes the rear side panels of Blurr's car mode to flip down into a "flight mode". This mode also makes his twin [[Powerlinx]]-activated spring-loaded missile launchers available, which become hand-held weapons in robot mode.

: The Japanese release of Blurr has several significant color differences, most notably the lack of "dirt-wash" on his car mode, clear-red canopy rather than clear-yellow, plus his head has an entirely different set of [[paint applications]].

: The same mold was used to make ''Cybertron'' Blurr and ''[[Universe]]'' [[Swerve (TFU)|Swerve]].

Although the toy package bio differs, it offers no contradictory information, even going as far as describing his personality similarly to his Armada counterpart. Blurr is described as having stayed behind on Cybertron to protect it from the Decepticon assault.
