:''Inferno is an [[Autobot]] in the [[Generation 1]] [[continuity family]].''

[[Image:G1Inferno_collectionbox1.jpg|right|thumb|350px|Will probably start fires just to put them out.]]

'''Inferno''' is one gung-ho robot, ready and willing to roll out into the thick of any action at the drop of a hat. If the mission is search and rescue he's one of the best bots to have around, but he's even happier when called on to fight. Nothing gets Inferno's circuits going like a one-on-one with a few Decepticon trouble makers. During his down time he can generally be found hanging out with [[Red Alert (G1)|Red Alert]] and trying his best to keep Red out of trouble.

==Fiction==
===Animated continuity===
:''Voice actor:'' [[Walker Edmiston]] (US), [[Takurō Kitagawa]] (Japan)

He's has a khaind of a Texan cowboy accent, and a purdy gurlfriend, like awl rehd Autabawts.

===Marvel Comics continuity===
Inferno had a tendency to die. Repeatedly. He never let this keep him down.

==Toys==
===Generation 1===
[[Image:G1_Inferno_toy.jpg|right|thumb|160px|Then he'll start the fire again.]]
*'''Inferno''' (Autobot, 1985)
: ''Japanese ID number:'' '''C-10'''

: Inferno transforms into a Japanese firetruck. Each of his forearms contains a spring-loaded missile launcher, so he can fire his own fists or silver missiles. He is usually depicted in media has having a missile in place of a hand on his right arm. He is also armed with a small black rifle.

: In 2002, Inferno was re-released as part of [[Takara]]'s [[Transformers Collection]] series.

: In 2003, he was released by [[Hasbro]] in the Toys "R" Us [[exclusive]] "[[Commemorative Series]]" line.

: This mold was [[redeco]]ed and partially [[retool]]ed to make the [[Targetmaster]] [[Artfire (G1)|Artfire]], and [[Grapple_(G1)|Grapple]].

*'''Inferno with Hydro-Pack''' (Action Master, 1990)

: A non-transforming action figure with a simplified design, Inferno came with a [[Hydro-Pack]] that could be attached to his back or transformed into a large hand held Laser weapon. He is compatible with all other Action Master weapons and vehicles.

===Generation 2===
*'''Inferno''' (Autobot Hero, 1993)
: For ''Generation 2'', Inferno's original toy was re-used with virtually no deco changes, adding only the "Autobot" [[tampograph]]. His forearms were retooled to remove the spring-loaded launcher mechanism (the chromed missiles from the original releases were also dropped), but he came with a large red water-shooting cannon that clipped to his ladder.

==Trivia==
[[Image:A35.jpg|left|thumb|Inferno moonlights for easy cash.]]

*Inferno's original toy, slightly modified, was knocked off and used as the titular giant robot in the Korean animated film ''Phoenix King'' (피닉스킹). ''Phoenix King'' was dubbed (horribly) and released in America by Digiview Entertainment as ''[http://www.cyrusfirst.com/guests/digiview/dev/detail.php?p=91 Defenders of Space]'', generally selling for the bargain price of $1.00. Scenes of "Inferno" from this movie were also incorporated into another bargain film distributed by Digiview Entertainment, ''[http://www.cyrusfirst.com/guests/digiview/dev/detail.php?p=201 Space Thunder Kids]''.

*In the late 1990s, a knockoff of G2 Inferno with some yellow parts was sold in discount stores on a card reading "Transformers: Generation 3."

*The earliest pictured version of Action Master Inferno is largely different from the final version, but only upon close examination. The early version errs on the side of the original toy in color and design, while the final more closely follows the design of the animation model. Strangely, the early version has a nearly solid black block of a head (possibly to echo the ladder base in which the original's head was contained), as well as generally wider and chunky proportions.

Abominus (G1)

2007-02-16T12:31:42Z

219.95.30.178:

:''Abominus is a [[Decepticon]] from the [[Generation 1]] continuity family.''

[[Image:MTMTEAbominus.jpg|right|thumb|350px|We contain an explosive device.]]

Even more so than the other Decepticon [[combiner]]s, '''Abominus''' is a being of mindless fury. He's not truly a warrior - he's an animal, the destructive rages of the [[Terrorcon (G1)|Terrorcons]] that compose him personified. His commanders can't give him orders simplistic enough for him to understand, so they just point him in the direction of objects that need to be smashed, and turn him loose. The only thing that distinguishes him from a wild beast is the enjoyment he derives from his terrible rampages.

Abominus is the combined form of all five Terrorcons:

*[[Hun-Gurrr]] (leader)
*[[Rippersnapper]]
*[[Blot]]
*[[Sinnertwin]]
*[[Cutthroat]]

==Fiction==
===''Generation 1''===

Abominus once lost because [[Computron]] vibrated.

====Zone OVA and manga====
Voice actor: [[Yukimasa Kishino]] (Japan)

[[Image:AbominusZone1.jpg|right|150px|thumb|His mommy dresses him.]]

''(Abominus is referred to as one of the [[Nine Great Demon Generals]]. This terminology, coupled with the presence of the previously deceased [[Black Zarak]] in their ranks and [[Violen Jygar]]'s supernatural origins, could mean that Abominus died previously to Zone and was likewise brought back to life. However, this is unconfirmed, meaning that Violen Jygar may have simply recruited the still-living Abominus to be a General.)''

When Violen Jygar siezed command of the Decepticons, his first act was to recruit nine Demon-Generals from Decepticon history. Abominus was selected to be one of those Generals and was given new power and weaponry to make him an even greater threat than before. Abominus was sent to the Planet [[Feminia]] to wreak havoc along with [[Menasor (G1)|Menasor]] and [[Overlord (G1)|Overlord]]. Together, the three Decepticon Demon-Generals destroyed the entire planet and nearly killed [[Victory Saber]] in the process.

==Toys==
* '''Abominus''' (1987)
: ''Japanese ID number:'' '''D-84'''
[[Image:G1abominus_toy.jpg|left|thumb|150px|Real bots wear pink.]]

: Abominus is formed out of all five Terrorcons. As a [[Scramble City]] combiner, each smaller Terrorcon attach as limbs into the central body, Hun-Gurrr. He is completed by attaching fists, feet, a large chestplate, head and is armed with Hun-Gurrr's rifle.

: Similarly to [[Superion (G1)|Superion]], Hun-Gurrr's own slender legs leads to Abominus having some disproportionately thin thighs.

: Thanks to Hun-Gurrr's articulation, Abominus is perhaps the most poseable of the ''Generation 1'' combiners. He can swing his legs forwars and backwards as well as to the side, and also has knees, even if they are a little high.

: Only the individual Terrorcons were sold in most markets. The giftset was only released in Italy and Japan.

Stunticon (G1)

2007-02-16T12:24:53Z

219.95.30.178:

:''The Stunticons are a [[Decepticon]] subgroup from the [[Generation 1]] continuity family.''

The '''Stunticons''' are a group of 5 rebellious Decepticon automobiles. They are mortal enemies with the [[Autobot]] [[Aerialbot]]s.

The Stunticons consist of:

*[[Motormaster]] (leader)
*[[Drag Strip]]
*[[Dead End (G1)|Dead End]]
*[[Wildrider]]
*[[Breakdown]]

They can combine to form [[Menasor (G1)|Menasor]].

'''Japanese name:''' ''Stuntron''

==Fiction==
===Generation 1 cartoon===
In envy of the Autobot's vehicular modes, Megatron stole various human vehicles and customised them so he can have his own car team, the Stunticons. Before they were given sparks, he brought them out for a test drive via remote control, forcing them to flip, somersault, fly off the road, drive up cliffs and bash through forests without a scratch. Having satisfied Megatron's idea of normalcy, he headed to Cybertron to get redneck personalities for them, save for [[Dead End (G1)|Emocon]]. They join to become ugly animated Menasor.
====Scramble City OVA====

====Japanese manga====

===Marvel comic continuity===

===Dreamwave Comics continuity===
At some point in Cybertron's recent history, the Stunticons were deemed psychotic and too dangerous to function in society, and as a result were placed into perpetual stasis lock inside of a prison facility. Later, in an attempt to create a diversion while he set his final plans in motion, [[Shockwave (G1)|Shockwave]] arranged for the release of the Stunticons. They formed into Menasor and ran amuck for awhile, until [[Ultra Magnus (G1)|Ultra Magnus]] arrived and began insulting them. Unable to reconcile with this, the five Stunticons began to bicker with each other over whose fault it was that they were failing, temporarily stopping Menasor and allowing Ultra Magnus to ram the combiner in the chest, forcing him to separate into his component parts and disabling the Stunticons.

==Toys==
===Generation 1===
* '''Motormaster''' (Stunticon, 1985)
: ''Japanese ID number:'' '''D-50'''
