'''Incinerator''' is all about the speed, man. His goal is to be the fastest Mini-Con there is, and then be even ''faster''. Sensitive about his light frame and physical weaknesses, Incinerator turned to his one major talent, high-speed racing, and ran with it (literally). Even the [[Decepticon]]s' aerial warriors have a hard time keeping up with him.

If anyone suspects that Incinerator's quest for speed is an attempt to make up for his physical deficiencies, they only need hear him talk for five minutes to ''confirm'' it. Incinerator is clearly out to earn adulation and praise to feel better about himself, and any kind of negative comment can put him in a funk.

==Fiction==
===''Armada'' cartoon continuity===
Incinerator's [[Mini-Con storage panel]] was found in the desert by [[Demolishor (Armada)|Demolishor]] during a battle with the Autobots, but just as he teleported back to his base in gloating victory, new Autobot reinforcement [[Blurr (Armada)|Blurr]] shot the panel right out of his hands, caught it in midair and activated it. Incinerator chose to partner with Blurr in thanks for saving him, but this did not sit well with the taciturn Autobot warrior, as he had little regard for the Mini-Cons beyond keeping them out of [[Decepticon]] hands. Soon afterward, [[Downshift (Armada)|Downshift]]'s storage panel was detected at a race track, and during the ensuing struggle with the Decepticons, Blurr [[Powerlinx|powerlinked]] with Incinerator to fly ahead of [[Hot Shot (Armada)|Hot Shot]] and [[Jolt (Armada)|Jolt]] in an attempt to keep Downshift away from the Decepticons. However, Blurr's disregard for coordinated teamwork and his arrogance led to the loss of the Mini-Con, and the Decepticons were able to complete the mighty [[Skyboom (Armada)|Skyboom Shield]]. {{storylink|Reinforcement}}

Later, Blurr and Incinerator powerlinked again while attempting to save [[Optimus Prime (Armada)|Optimus Prime]] from [[Megatron (Armada)|Megatron]] and the power of the [[Star Saber (Armada)|Star Saber]]. {{storylink|Decisive Battle}} When the titanic [[Tidal Wave (Armada)|Tidal Wave]] appeared on [[Earth]], both Blurr and Hot Shot powerlinked with Incinerator and [[Jolt (Armada)|Jolt]] respectively to speed past the Decepticon lines and attack Tidal Wave directly. {{storylink|Awakening}}

Incinerator later appeared in front of [[Side Swipe (Armada)|Side Swipe]], posing to fight [[Hot Shot (Armada)|Hot Shot]]. {{storylink|Remorse}}

===Dreamwave comics continuity===
Incinerator was first seen aiding [[Mini-Con Village C52]] against the Decepticons by activating the four shield regulators. Of course these were absolutely useless as the Decepticons broke into the village and captured the Mini-Cons. {{storylink|Dreamwave Armada issue 1|Dreamwave Armada issue 1}} However, while the Decepticons were gloating over their victorious battle with the Autobots (who lacked Mini-Cons), [[Sparkplug (Armada)|Sparkplug]] and the [[Air Defense Mini-Con Team (Armada)|Air Defense Team]] infiltrated Decepticon headquarters and rescued the imprisoned Mini-Cons. Wishing to be free of the Decepticons forever, they escaped [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]] in [[Exodus (Armada)|a space ship]] the Air Defense Team had constructed out of junk. {{storylink|Dreamwave Armada issue 2|Dreamwave Armada issue 2}}

Much later, Incinerator had become an inhabitant of [[Dualor]]'s [[Mini-Con Fortress Base]] on the [[Moon (moon)|Moon]], but due to its subsequent destruction, he and the other Mini-Cons were relocated to the [[Autobase (Armada)|Autobase]] on [[Earth]]. Already chafing at having to live with the Autobots, [[Rook (Armada)|Rook]] demanded that the Mini-Cons cut off all ties with the Autobots, a move that Incinerator strongly supported. {{storylink|Fire & Ice}}

*'''Blurr with Mini-Con Incinerator''' (Super-Con, 2003)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''MC-08'''

: Incinerator transforms into a Cybertronic long-nosed drag racer. He is specially designed to fit in the rear section of [[Blurr (Armada)|Blurr]]'s vehicle form, activating the bulk's third "flight" mode. Naturally, he was only available packaged with Blurr.

: The [[Takara|Takara]] version of Incinerator has some slight deco differences from the [[Hasbro|Hasbro]] version, the most notable being his red windscreen as opposed to the Hasbro dark blue one, but his plastics are also slightly different shades, matching up with the Takara Blurr's colors.

: This mold was also used to make ''[[Universe (2003 toyline)|Universe]]'' [[Roadhandler (Universe)|Roadhandler]] and [[Wrench|Wrench]].

{{mainpic|10:15, 24 April 2009 (EDT)}}
'''Hydradread''' uses science... uses it for ''evil''! He spends a lot of time alone, planning ways to do terrible things to just about anybody. Despite his relative newness to the field of evil, even veteran Decepticons find themselves surprised at the depths to which he'll plunge in the name of sick fun.

The [[Stormtrooper|Stormtroopers]] were part of [[Bludgeon (G1)|Bludgeon's]] forces dispatched on [[Earth]] to basically wreck stuff until [[Optimus Prime (G1)|Optimus Prime]] came to stop them. Hydradread, having apparently found humans too small to be suitable targets, was eagerly anticipating going up against some [[Autobot|Autobots]]... but instead, they found themselves up against [[Megatron (G1)|Megatron]], who had come to take leadership of the Decepticons back from Bludgeon. The Stormtroopers attacked, and Hydradread was the first to get blasted by Megatron. {{storylink|War Zone}}

: His hood/chest piece is coated in [[color changing]] paint; when it gets warm, it turns from its normal blueish tint to a pale off-white.
