Of the two [[Duocon]]s, '''Battletrap''' is the sane one. In contrast to [[Flywheels]], whose two components are constantly bickering, Battletrap uses the two separate vehicles of his [[alternate mode]] in concert with each other. He likes to play with his target in the way a housecat might play with a rodent...that is, if said housecat happened to have a separate avian part of itself that could fly like a hummingbird.

''Battletrap first appeared in a brief battle against [[Ultra Magnus (G1)|Ultra Magnus]] and the [[Sparkabot]]s. Battletrap was a member of the original [[Mayhem Attack Squad]], and took part in their joint mission with the [[Wreckers]] to destroy [[Galvatron_(G1)|Galvatron]] in the [[Time Wars]]. He is one of the first warriors to fall during the battle, his chest torn open by Galvatron before being smashed against a wall.''

Despite his apparent "death", Battletrap later reappeared on [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]] during the battle with [[Unicron]]. He survived, and also narrowly escaped death at the hands of subterranean Cybertronian monsters shortly after, though his buddy [[Runabout]] wasn't so lucky.

He then regularly appeared as one of [[Bludgeon (G1)|Bludgeon's]] more prominent warriors.

====Generation 2====
In the first battle between the two generations of Decepticons, Battletrap was badly wounded and had to be carried back to safety inside of [[Warworld]]. He is not seen again.

Flywheels

59.141.237.230: /* Headmasters cartoon */

:''Flywheels is a [[Decepticon]] [[Duocon]] in the [[Generation 1]] continuity family.''

'''Flywheels''', along with [[Battletrap]], is a [[Duocon]].

[[Image:Flywheelsboxart.jpg|right|thumb|200px|Howitzer'd!]]

==Fiction==
===Marvel Comics continuity.===
====Generation 1====
''('''Note''': Events from the UK comics are in italics.)''

''Flywheels first appeared in a brief battle against [[Ultra Magnus]] and the [[Sparkabots]]. He was knocked out of the air by Ultra Magnus and was captured by the [[Autobots]]. As a prisoner he was soon forced to fight with his captors against a horde of zombie Transformers in [[Kalis]] let loose by [[Flame]]. Disobeying Ultra Magnus' order not to open fire on them. While engaged in the fighting with the zombots Ultra Magnus allowed Flywheels to go and get reinforcements (though had little expectation of the Duocon's return). Surprisingly Flywheels did come back with [[Trypticon]] to give the remaining zombots a good stomping''

''He later joined the [[Mayhem Attack Squad]] and took part in their joint attack with the [[Wreckers]] on [[Galvatron_(G1)|Galvatron]] and [[Megatron]]. Although he is not seen to die in the ensuing fight, he never appears again after the [[Time Wars]] storyline, and is thus possibly an off-panel casualty of the battle.''

===Headmasters cartoon===
:''Voice actor: [[Yūki Satō]] (Japan)''
In ''The Headmasters'', he is affiliation in [[Scorponok (G1)|MegaZarak]]'s palace guard with the [[Battletrap]].

:''Japanese ID number:'' '''D-97'''
[[Image:G1Flywheels_toy.jpg|left|thumb|"Hey, you know what they say about guys with big feet, right?"]]

:Flywheels' robot mode is made from the combination of a maroon F-4 Phantom II fighter jet and and a brown self-propelled howitzer of vague origin, that make up his [[alt mode]]. His only articulation is the up and down movement of his arms at the shoulder, and his only accessory is a maroon rifle.
{{-}}

==Trivia==
* The lack of ''wheels'' on Flywheels' altmode has led to speculation that he and [[Battletrap]] may have swapped names during production.

[[Image:Battletrapboxart.jpg|right|thumb|250px|The Cybertronian equivalent of a [[Wikipedia:Wuzzles|Wuzzle]].]]

Of the two [[Duocon]]s, '''Battletrap''' is the sane one. In contrast to [[Flywheels]], whose two components are constantly bickering, Battletrap uses the two separate vehicles of his [[alternate mode]] in concert with each other. He likes to play with his target in the way a housecat might play with a rodent...that is, if said housecat happened to have a separate avian part of itself that could fly like a hummingbird.

''Battletrap first appeared in a brief battle against [[Ultra Magnus (G1)|Ultra Magnus]] and the [[Sparkabot]]s. Battletrap was a member of the original [[Mayhem Attack Squad]], and took part in their joint mission with the [[Wreckers]] to destroy [[Galvatron_(G1)|Galvatron]] in the [[Time Wars]]. He is one of the first warriors to fall during the battle, his chest torn open by Galvatron before being smashed against a wall.''

Despite his apparent "death", Battletrap later reappeared on [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]] during the battle with [[Unicron]]. He survived, and also narrowly escaped death at the hands of subterranean Cybertronian monsters shortly after, though his buddy [[Runabout]] wasn't so lucky.

He then regularly appeared as one of [[Bludgeon (G1)|Bludgeon's]] more prominent warriors.

====Generation 2====
In the first battle between the two generations of Decepticons, Battletrap was badly wounded and had to be carried back to safety inside of [[Warworld]]. He is not seen again.

Dreadwind (G1)

2007-11-21T20:53:13Z

59.141.237.230:

{{disambig2|the Generation 1 Decepticon|the Robots in Disguise/Universe Decepticon|Dreadwind (RID)}}

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

[[Image:Dreadwindboxart.jpg|right|thumb|300px|''*blam blam blam*'' Why does no one like me? ''*blam blam blam*'']]

''"As ominous as a storm cloud and as chilling as a winter breeze."'' Not everyone could make [[Dead End (G1)| Dead End]] look fun by comparison, but '''Dreadwind''' manages just that. After all, Dead End just depresses himself, but Dreadwind manages to export the feeling to everyone around him. Like a bad case of [[Scraplet]]s, Dreadwind's gloom is contagious and there's no mood so positive that he can't kill it within moments of entering the room. Mournful and doom-laden at the best of times, Decepticons avoid him socially and [[Autobots]] avoid him on the battlefield, leaving Dreadwind wracked with loneliness and despair.

He tends to think that he has no friends, but the truth is that he couldn't have a more perfect match than his partner [[Darkwing]], and the two are fairly inseparable. He gets along less well with his binary-bonded [[Nebulan]] [[Powermaster]] partner [[Hi-Test]], a villainous, overachieving perfectionist who tries to bully Dreadwind into enjoying their evil acts.

:''Japanese name'': '''Buster'''
:''French-Canadian name'': '''Terreur'''

==Fiction==
===Marvel Comics continuity===
====Generation 1====
:''(Note: Events in italics are from UK-only stories.)''

[[Image:Dreadwinddarkwingpeoplepower.jpg|left|thumb|200px|[[Nel Yomtov]]'s pallette didn't include teal.]]

Dreadwind and Darkwing came to [[Nebulos]] in search of [[Scorponok (G1)|Scorponok]]'s group of Decepticons, but they had by then moved on to [[Earth]]. Furthermore, they were warned by the scientist [[Hi-Q]] that if they stayed on Nebulos, they would perish, as the Nebulans had poisoned their world's entire fuel supply to prevent another war with the Transformers from occurring. Dreadwind and Darkwing ignored this request, and eventually they lanquished on the brink of permanent shutdown.

Hi-Q's jealous protege, [[Hi-Test]], and his accomplice [[Throttle (G1)|Throttle]] offered Dreadwind and his partner salvation, by way of [[Powermaster]] technology stolen from Hi-Q. The dying Decepticon duo reluctantly agreed, and, restored, they began destroying Nebulos once again. Hi-Q and his scientists were forced to undergo the Powermaster process themselves, [[binary bonding]] with [[Optimus Prime (G1)|Optimus Prime]] and a few others. Ultimately, Dreadwind and Darkwing were forced off Nebulos. {{storylink|People Power!}}

Dreadwind, Darkwing, and their Powermaster partners eventually found themselves working for the [[Mecannibal]]s at [[Grand Central Space Station]], wrangling not only clients, but robots for the Mecannibals to devour. They discovered that two of their clients, [[Landmine (G1)|Landmine]] and [[Cloudburst]], were actually robots disguised as humans, and turned them in to their hungry bosses. {{storylink|Guess Who the Mecannibals are Having for Dinner?}} The Autobots-in-disguise made a savory deal with the Mecannibals, and so Dreadwing and Darkwing followed them to [[Femax]]. In the process, however, they were not only beaten up by [[Sky Lynx (G1)|Sky Lynx]], but Hi-Test and Throttle's ship was discovered to be Dreadwind and Darkwing, robots themselves. Cloudburst and Landmine snitched, and the Mecannibals angrily chased the pair and their Powermaster Partners across the cosmos.{{storylink|Recipe for Disaster!}}

[[Image:Dreadwinddarkwingunicron.jpg|right|thumb|100px|Seriously, they're inseparable.]]After losing the Mecannibals, Dreadwind and Darkwing were recruited in secret by [[Megatron (G1)|Megatron]] to bring him the corpse of the [[Underbase]]-destroyed [[Starscream (G1)|Starscream]]. ''They found him in southern [[Peru]], where his zombie body stalked the Earth, somehow animated past death by the remainder of the Underbase's energies. They successfully retrieved the corpse, despite a tangle with the [[Triggerbot]]s and archaeologist [[Susan Hoffman]]. {{storylink|Race with the Devil}}'' The corpse was delivered to Megatron on [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]], who had recently abducted the Autobot medical officer [[Ratchet (G1)|Ratchet]] to exhort him into rebuilding Starscream using [[Pretender]] technology. {{storylink|Resurrection Gambit!}} But Ratchet doublecrossed Megatron, unleashing his own Pretender army, and the battle, involving Dreadwind, Darkwing, the Pretender Classics, and the [[Micromaster]] [[Sports Car Patrol]], spread outside Megatron's headquarters, moments before the headquarters detonated with Ratchet and Megatron still inside. {{storylink|Skin Deep}}

''Feeling like losers, Dreadwind and Darkwing chose to drink away their sorrows at [[Maccadam's Old Oil House]]. The Mecannibals followed them to the pub, eating their way past [[Rocky]], the bouncer. The Mecannibals immediately began tearing up the joint, with the pair of innebriated Decepticons blissfully unaware of the chaos around them. Luckily, [[Quickswitch]] was present and leapt into action. After a brief skirmish, Quickswitch used his tunneling mode to bury the Mecannibals alive deep underground.'' {{storylink|Out to Lunch!}}

Dreadwind and Darkwing were present during the battle with [[Unicron]]. {{storylink|On the Edge of Extinction!}} Though they survived, the pair was even more mopey than usual, and on their way to a joint Autobot/Decepticon conference to discuss the imminent demise of their homeworld, Dreadwind was hit on the noggin by a large piece of falling debris. {{storylink|Exodus!}} Dreadwind was shaken, but survived to escape Cybertron on a starship with several other Decepticons led by [[Bludgeon]], stranding the Autobots behind to die. Finally, when the Autobots managed to follow the Decepticons to [[Klo]], the Decepticons ambushed them upon their arrival. Dreadwind and Darkwing, combined as [[Dreadwing (G1)|Dreadwing]], picked off some of the last remaining Autobots, including [[Getaway]]. However, their victory was halted by the divine intervention of the [[Last Autobot]], and the wounded remnants of the Decepticon army fled Klo to parts unknown. {{storylink|End of the Road! (Marvel US comic)|End of the Road!}}

====="Dread Tidings" Marvel UK letters page=====
[[Image:Dreadtidings.jpg|left|thumb|150px|He hates your letters.]] Dreadwind and Hi-Test answered the Transformers fanmail for, like, forever! When his time came, he refused to leave, and holed himself up in the Marvel offices. He was finally evicted by [[Blaster (G1)|Blaster]] who complained that Dreadwind had decorated the office in all purple and orange with a solitary picture of a dog with sad eyes.

[[Image:Dreadwindatap.jpg|right|thumb|100px|This was retconned, but Dreadwind probably complains about it anyway.]]

====="Another Time and Place" UK text story=====
:''('''Note''': "Another Time and Place," the last original Marvel Generation 1 material printed, was soon invalidated by the events of the ''Generation 2'' comics.)''

Dreadwind was among Bludgeon's decimated Decepticon forces when they followed [[Grimlock (G1)|Grimlock]] and his [[Dinobot (G1)|Dinobots]] to [[Hydrus Four]], hoping to steal the power of [[Nucleon]] for themselves. Dreadwind helped ambush the rogue Dinobots, but when Grimlock was freed by a rescue team, the Decepticon was shot by Grimlock using [[Crankcase]]'s concussion blaster. He and the remnants of the Decepticon army under Bludgeon were defeated. {{storylink|Another Time and Place}}

====Classics====
[[Image:Dreadwindgod.jpg|left|thumb|200px|Nonsense. You're ''adorable''.]]
:''('''Note''': ''Classics'' ignores both the Marvel UK material and ''Generation 2''.)''
After the battle on Klo, Dreadwind stayed under the command of [[Bludgeon (G1)|Bludgeon]], who in turn assigned Dreadwind to [[Bug Bite]]'s subcommand. At some point, [[Hi-Test]] was disarmed by [[Grimlock (G1)|Grimlock]], a turn of events that Dreadwind suspects Hi-Test was fine with, so long as his death meant they didn't have to continue being partners. Dreadwind, like [[Weirdwolf]], was subsequently rebuilt by Bug Bite in order to accomodate the loss of their [[Nebulan]]s. {{storylink|Games of Deception}}
{{-}}

===IDW comics continuity===
[[Image:Dreadwindstormbringer.jpg|right|thumb|200px|Someone remembered Nebulos doesn't have F-16s.]]

Dreadwind was a part of Darkwing's Infiltration unit on Nebulos when the planet was ravaged by a resurrected, supernaturally-powerful [[Thunderwing (G1)|Thunderwing]]. Darkwing ordered Dreadwind and the other Decepticons under his command to try to stop Thunderwing before he blew up the planet, which would ruin their long-reaching plans to harvest its natural resources, but all but Dreadwind, Darkwing, and [[Thrust (G1)|Thrust]] were annihilated. They fled the planet, fearful of Megatron's reaction to their failure. {{storylink|Stormbringer, Part 3}}

*'''Dreadwind''' (Powermaster, 1988)

: Dreadwind transforms into a General Dynamics F-16 Fighting Falcon jet. In order to transform back into robot mode, a [[Powermaster]] engine --like his pack-in partner Hi-Test-- must be plugged into his back, unlocking the wings and a few other bits. Once he has an engine attached, his jet mode can also combine with Darkwing's to form the [[Dreadwing (G1)|Dreadwing]] super-jet. He also comes with two non-firing handguns that can be held separately, or combined into a large double-barreled weapon.

: This mold was used to make ''[[Masterforce]]'' [[Hydra and Buster|Buster]].

===Timelines===
*'''Games of Deception''' (Multi-pack, 2007)
[[Image:Classics_Dreadwind_Toy.jpg|left|thumb|Dreadwind hates how everyone mistakes him for Jetfire.]]

: A [[retool]] of ''Classics'' [[Jetfire (G1)|Jetfire]], Dreadwind is part of the ''[[Classics (2006)|Classics]]''-themed [[BotCon 2007]] box set, along with [[Bugbite]], [[Dirge (G1)|Dirge]], [[Thrust (G1)|Thrust]] and [[Thundercracker (G1)|Thundercracker]]. His inner robot head has been retooled to resemble his original head.

: Like Jetfire, Dreadwind comes with a number of removable accessories, including a booster pack, two arm-mounted missile launchers, two missiles, and a helmet. The toy's add-on booster pack has flip-out reveal cannons.

: As with most ''Classics'' toys, he features a heat-sensitive [[rubsign]].

: There were 1500 ''Classics'' Dreadwind figures produced.

*'''WARS''' (Spy Changer, 2000)
:''Japanese ID number:'' '''C-007'''

: A [[redeco]] of the ''[[Generation 2]]'' [[Go-Bots]] [[Gearhead]] mold, WARS transforms into a Ford Thunderbird stock car. His silver windshield has heat-sensitive paint that reveals an Autobot insignia, in a method similar to the original [[rubsign]]s.

: This mold was also used to make the ''Generation 2'' Go-Bot version of [[Soundwave (G1)|Soundwave]].

*'''Spy Changer 6 Set''' (Multi-pack, 2000)
:''Japanese ID number:'' '''C-011'''

: All six Spy Changers were not only sold as individuals in Japan, but in a six-piece gift set as well.

*'''WARS clear version''' (Spy Changer, 2000)

: An [[exclusive]] [[redeco]] of WARS in clear-red and clear-yellow plastics, this version was only available at Jusco stores in Japan, as a giveaway with purchase (of ''what'', though, is unknown at this time).

*'''W.A.R.S. & Crosswise''' (Basic, 2001)

: Available only in a two-pack with [[Crosswise (RID)|Crosswise]], the [[Hasbro]] version of W.A.R.S. replaces the heat-sensitive insignia with a normal Autobot insignia [[tampograph]] on the roof of the car. The window-paint changed to metallic blue, and adds yellow stripes to the bottom edge of the vehicle sides.

*'''W.A.R.S.''' (Spy Changer, 2002)

: All six original Spy Changers were redecoed in clear plastics (keeping their normal paint applications, though), and released on individual cards through Kay-Bee Toys chains. W.A.R.S. was decoed similarly to the Jusco except that the clear yellow was changed to clear orange.

*'''W.A.R.S.''' (Tiny Tins, 2002)

: The normal Hasbro version of W.A.R.S. was released as part of the first assortment of [[Tiny Tins]] Transformers, coming with a carrying tin.

*'''Super WARS''' (Spy Changer, 2003)

: Long after the ''[[Robots in Disguise]]'' line ended in Japan, Takara put out individually-boxed redecoes of the Spy Changers. WARS was decoed grey and dark blue.

: In each case of twelve Super Spy changers, two were all-clear-plastic versions (but keeping their paint applications). All six Spy Changers had a clear variant.

[[Image:Camshaftspychanger.jpg|left|thumb|100px|]]
*'''W.A.R.S.''' (Spy Changer, 2003)

: A second round of Kay-Bee-exclusive Spy Changers was released on individual cards. This time around, he was done in clear-purple and clear-orange. This toy was re-released unmodified in a new packaging as [[Universe (toyline)|Universe]] [[Camshaft (G1)|Camshaft]].
