:''Chip is a [[human]] character from the [[Generation 1]] [[continuity family]].''<br />

<br />
'''Chip Chase''' is a human ally of the [[Autobot]]s and [[Spike Witwicky]]'s best friend. Suffering from some unknown malady, Chip is confined to a wheelchair. He isn't defined by his disability though, but rather by his geeky genius-level skills with computers, programming, and electronics. <br />
<br />
He also has tremendous upper body strength.<br />
<br />
<br />
==Fiction==<br />
<br />
===US cartoon===<br />
:''Voice actor:'' [[Michael Horton]] (US), [[Keiichi Nanba]] (Japan)<br />
:''First appearance:'' [[Roll For It]]<br />
<br />
Chip Chase came to the attentions of the Autobots as a friend of [[Spike Witwicky]] and the whiz behind [[Dr. Alcazar]]'s antimatter formula project. Though the Decepticons stole the antimatter formula, Chip memorized the data.<br />
<br />
Chip has a remarkably advanced (or at least ridiculously expensive) desktop computer for 1984. It contains among other things, a 16 Million color monitor (Chip's view of the Decepticons was no different than [[Prowl (G1)|Prowl's]]), a microphone, dial up networking, speakers, and a soundcard that could interpret Prowl's speech. Maybe he's friends with [[Ethan Zachary]].<br />
<br />
Chip once tore a [[Floppy disk|floppy disk]] apart with '' his bare hands''. This may explain why [[Optimus Prime (G1)|Optimus Prime]] is [[Afterdeath!|keen to stay in his good books]].<br />
<br />
Chip is able to survive [[acid rain]], is able to stand (despite being wheelchair bound), and once saved the world by getting [[Thrust (G1)|Thrust]] to shoot [[Teletraan-1]]. <br />
<br />
He once told a group of Autobots that, "No one is really disabled as long as they have courage." If any human was an illustration of this, it's Chip Chase.<br />
<br />
===Scramble City OVA===<br />
<br />
''(Note: the [[Scramble City]] OVA takes place after the events of the second season of the US cartoon, but before ''[[The Transformers: The Movie (1986)|The Transformers: The Movie]]''.)''<br />
<br />
Chip can be seen alongside Spike, [[Sparkplug Witwicky|Sparkplug]] and Carly helping to construct [[Autobot City]].<br />
<br />
===Binaltech===<br />
<br />
He's [[Prowl2]].<br />
<br />
==Trivia==<br />
* Chip and [[Carly]] never appeared in the same episode during the entire US run, coincidence!? ''Shocking dual identitity?!?!'' (Or maybe the two of them just can't stand to be in the same room for whatever reason...)<br />
