[[Image:EjectVisualworks.jpg|right|250px|thumb|Skree! Unnecessary roughness, unnecessary roughness!]]
The best way to describe '''Eject''' is that he is always ''ready for some football!'' A confirmed Earth-sports junkie, Eject constantly scans the airwaves for everything from baseball, basketball, football, soccer, hockey, ''anything'', from professional to academic-level competition. This occasionally interferes with his job as a surveillance agent, should a game go into overtime when he should be monitoring [[Decepticon]] activity. Sports clichés and terms litter his speech: "home runs", "touchdowns", "gooooooooooooooooooo ooooooooooooooal!!" and, of course, "Are you'' '''ready for some football?!"'''

For Eject, sports are more than a form of entertainment. To his mind, they are also the answer to the war. He feels that sports could replace the way Cybertronians traditionally settle disputes: with bloody arena combat or a millennia or two of killing each other in mass numbers. He tries to get the other Autobots in on the idea, and envisions one day a [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]] free of the horrors of war, where arenas are filled with fans cheering a three-point shot rather than a decapitation, where all Transformers are united in being truly'' '''READY FOR SOME FOOTBALL!!!''' ''

==Fiction==
===Cartoon continuity===
====''The Transformers'' cartoon====
During the Battle of [[Autobot City]], Eject sacked [[Frenzy (G1)|Frenzy]] in mid-air while defending [[Perceptor (G1)|Perceptor]] in the communications tower. They continued grappling with each other as the mini "Cassette War" raged on. {{storylink|The Transformers: The Movie}}

After the defeat of [[Unicron]], Eject was first seen stationed inside [[Metroplex (G1)|Metroplex]] when Blaster was calling for help from [[Earth Defense Command]] on Mars. {{storylink|Five Faces of Darkness, Part 3}} Sometime later, he joined Blaster and his fellow cassettes in traveling to [[Menonia]], looking for the missing [[Grimlock (G1)|Grimlock]] and [[Daniel Witwicky (G1)|Daniel Witwicky]]. The strong silent type, Eject still helped overthrow [[Mara-Al-Utha]] and bring the [[Golden One]] back into power. {{storylink|Madman's Paradise}}

====''Fight! Super Robot Lifeform'' comic====
When the Decepticons posed as Autobots to defame their enemies in the eyes of humanity, Eject and [[Rewind]] rode inside [[Prowl (G1)|Prowl]] when the Autobots busted up a Decepticon-run anti-Autobot rally. Eject and Rewind fired their blasters at a pair of hooded-and-robed figures, who were revealed as the Decepticons [[Frenzy (G1)|Frenzy]] and [[Rumble (G1)|Rumble]].

The two small Autobots then beat the ever-loving snot out of the two small Decepticons. {{storylink|Fight! Super Robot Lifeform Transformers issue 7|Fight! Super Robot Lifeform Transformers issue 7}}

===Marvel Comics continuity===
====Marvel UK future timelines====

Eject was stationed on Cybertron in 2008. He fielded a distress signal sent by an unknown party, and then passed the ball to his coach, Ultra Magnus, to call the play. {{storylink|Space Pirates!}}

===Dreamwave comics continuity===
[[Image:EjectTWW.jpg|left|180px|thumb|Ready for a game that won't be invented for millennia!]]
Eject was among the many Autobots who congregated in a secret base during the [[Age of Internment]], when the recently-returned [[Megatron (G1)|Megatron]]'s [[Air Warrior|Aerospace Extermination Squadron]] covered the planet [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]], capturing countless Autobot heroes and sending the remnants of the army underground. {{storylink|War Within: The Age of Wrath}}

===''G.I. Joe vs. Transformers''===
[[Image:Eject-blackhorizon.jpg|right|250px|thumb|The CHIFFON! Pick the CHIFFON! No, not the taffeta!]]
Eject was part of Prowl's team, working in conjunction with [[Hawk (G.I. Joe)|Hawk]] to round up stray Cybertronian technology on Earth. When the Autobots disrupted one of Destro's sales on a dock in Cuba, Eject wound up taking on eight S.N.A.K.E. armored robots by himself.

''And he won.''

Back at the submerged space ship ''[[Arc II]]'', he was having a pleasant day watching reality TV shows with [[Firewall]] until the [[Pretender Monster|Pretender Monsters]] attacked. While Prowl, Skids, and Sideswipe all fell before the Decepticons' assault...

''Eject got away without a scratch.''

Eject carried Firewall to the surface for Cosmos to pick up, before heading below to recharge and help the others. Whether this "help" consisted of single-handedly driving off their attackers is not made clear, but really, his track record points that way. {{storylink|Black Horizon, Part 1 of 2}}

After Unicron was defeated, Eject happily went back to watching bad television with Firewall. He was elated when Optimus Prime chose to join them. {{storylink|Black Horizon, Part 2 of 2}}

===Generation 1===
[[Image:G1Eject toy.jpg|right|250px|thumb|RIBEIB, or EIBRIB? The (lesser) debate continues...]]
*'''Eject & Ramhorn''' (Cassette 2-pack, 1986)
**''Accessories'': 2 "Thruster Guns"

:Among the first new-mold cassettes in the line (rather than being pre-''Transformers'' ''[[Microman]]'' toys), Eject shares the same mold as [[Rewind]], transforming into a blue microcassette. In this mode, he can fit in the chest compartment of the [[Blaster (G1)|Blaster]] or [[Soundwave (G1)/toys|Soundwave]] toys. He was available only in a two-pack with [[Ramhorn]] in the [[Hasbro]] line.

: The initial Hasbro releases of Eject/Ramhorn had chromed-gold weapons; subsequent releases used chromed-silver. There are also [[Variant|variations]] of all new-mold cassettes from this series, in which the cassette back detailing is either a factory-applied foil decal, or painted-on detailing. It is unknown what (if any) correlation there is between the weapon and detailing variants.

: This mold was (much) later used to make [[Flip Sides (G1)|Flip Sides]] and [[Rosanna (KP)|Rosanna]].

*'''Eject''' (Cassettebot, 1986, 1987)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''C-68''', '''C-117'''
**''Accessories'': 2 "Thruster Guns"

: In Japan, Eject --like most of the "Cassettebots" and "Cassettetrons"-- was only (originally) individually available, and was released again in the ''[[The Headmasters (toyline)|Headmasters]]''.
{{-}}

*'''Great Cassette Operation''' (2009)
**''Encore number'': '''15'''
**''Accessories'': 2 "Thruster Guns"

: As part of the [[Encore]] Generation 1 [[reissue]] line, Eject was released along with [[Rewind]], [[Ravage (G1)|Ravage]] and [[Buzzsaw (G1)|Buzzsaw]].

===Universe (2008)===
====G1 Series====
[[Image:Universe2008_SDCC_G1Blaster.jpg|thumb|300px|]]
*'''Autobot Blaster''' (2010)
**''Accessories'': 2 "Thruster Guns"

:Eject was available in this San Diego Comic-Con [[exclusive]] reissue of Blaster alongside Steeljaw and Ramhorn. The figure has an Autobot symbol tampographed on its abdomen and comes with silver chromed weapons. Released as part of the [[Universe (2008 toyline)|''Universe'' (2008) toyline]], the packaging also has a special foil-detailed outer slip case.

:This set was also made available at the Animation-Comic-Game Hong Kong Fair 2010.
