Tripredacus Council

71.38.12.25: /* ''Beast Wars'' */

:''The Tripredacus Council is a group of [[Predacon (BW)|Predacon]]s from the [[Beast Wars]] portion of the [[Generation 1]] continuity family.''

[[Image:TripredacusCouncil1.jpg|right|250px|thumb|"So then it is agreed: half pepperoni, half green peppers."]]

The '''Tripredacus Council''' is one of the many ruling bodies of the fractured [[Predacon (BW)|Predacon]] faction. They meet in secret in undisclosed locations, and plot the return of the Predacons to glory, though under their terms. They choose to wait and grow strong before attacking, but many Predacons are impatient. This has led to some rogue behavior among the Predacon ranks.

One of their agents, [[Tarantulas]] of the Predacon Secret Police, suggests that, like himself and unlike the rest of the Predacons, the Tripredacus Council are not descended from the [[Decepticon]]s trapped on Earth. Instead, they may have extradimensional origins, be linked to the [[Cybertronian]] Empire, or may be, in fact, creations of [[Unicron]] himself.

The three members of the Tripredacus Council are:
*[[Ram Horn|General Ram Horn]]
*[[Sea Clamp|General Sea Clamp]]
*[[Cicadacon|General Cicadacon]]
''(The names of the Tripredacus Council members are taken from [[The Agenda, Part 1]]'s original script. [http://www.bwtf.com/bw/tvshow/episodes/seasontwo/])''

Their known affiliates and agents include:
*[[Flamewar]]
*[[Magmatron]]
*[[Onyx Primal]]
*[[Ravage]]
*[[Tarantulas]]

The members of the Tripredacus Council may or may not be able to combine to form the super-robot [[Tripredacus]]. (The toys they were based on have this ability, but they have given no indication of it in their fiction appearances.)

'''Japanese name:''' ''Trypticon Council''

==Fiction==
===''Beast Wars''===
The [[transwarp]] shockwave caused by the destruction of the [[Planet Buster]] eventually reached Cybertronian space in the [[Beast Era]], hitting Predacon Command Outpost 1, causing a severe power outage. The council apparently convened on the station immediately afterwards, where they noted that the transwarp wave's signature matched that of the [[Darksyde]], thus meaning that Megatron still functioned, and was still carrying out his secret agenda. In order to prevent the Maximals from discovering this, they detonate a satellite somewhere near Cybertron, dispersing the wave before it reaches the planet. They then dispatched Covert Agent [[Ravage]] in a prototype transwarp battleship to track the wave to its point of origin and terminate Megatron "with extreme prejudice".
====IDW ''Beast Wars'' comic====
[[Image:Tripredacuscouncilidw.jpg|left|thumb|250px|They watch lots of TV.]]
The council orders Magmatron to assure that the [[Maximal]]s did not have knowledge of the transwarp wave. {{Storylink|The Gathering, Part 1}} They believe that the Predacons must wait for the appropriate moment to strike. Many Predacons, however, tire of this strategy. A short time later, after the failure of their first agent, [[Ravage]], the council sends Magmatron to capture [[Megatron (BW)|Megatron]]. {{Storylink|The Gathering, Part 2}}

Brawl (G1)

{{disambig2|the original Brawl|the Brawl from the 2007 movie|Brawl (Movie)}}

:''Brawl is a [[Decepticon]] and a [[Combaticon]] in the [[Generation 1]] [[continuity family]].''

[[Image:MTMTEBrawl.jpg|right|thumb|300px|"I wouldn't need the pistol, but I don't wanna have to bend over to aim..."]]

If '''Brawl's''' on the battlefield and you can't hear him coming it's time to check your audio receptors, because chances are you've gone deaf. Brawl's main distinguishing characteristic is '''VOLUME'''. No matter if he's talking {yelling}, moving {clanking and rattling}, or fighting {yelling, clanking, rattling, and blasting) you're sure to hear him doing it, as is anyone else in the county. As if that wasn't enough, he also a ball of barely contained rage and violence with a hair-trigger temper. This makes even his comrades wary, but it does make him a force to be reckoned with on the battlefield... as long as the mission doesn't require stealth.

Brawl combines with his fellow Combaticons to form [[Bruticus (G1)|Bruticus]].

:''French-Canadian name'': '''Baggareur'''<br>
:''Italian name'': '''Bomber'''
:''Hungarian name'': '''Huligán'''

==Fiction==
===''Generation 1''===
===Marvel Comics continuity===

On his first mission on Earth, Brawl was tripped up by a bunch of vine creatures, crystallized, and blown to smithereens. Luckily for him, this was all in [[Afterdeath!|virtual reality]]. Unluckily for him, Brawl learned nothing about caution from this experience. A few days later, he mouthed off at [[Megatron (G1)|Megatron]]. Megatron proceeded to pop Brawl's head like a ripe melon.

: ''Combaticon Team number:'' '''C1'''
: ''Japanese ID number:'' '''D-67'''

[[Image:G1Brawl_toy.jpg|left|thumb|150px|World's Greatest Duck Hunter]]

: Brawl transforms into a green Leopard 1 main battle tank. In vehicle mode his armament is supplemented by a large dark gray anti-aircraft gun mounted of the back of the tank's hull. In robot mode Brawl is armed with a small dark gray gun.

: Early releases of Brawl used painted die-cast metal for his chest and leg-mounted tank treads. This was later replaced by color-cast plastic. The complete set of Combaticons were re-released in the European-market "[[Classics (Euro)|Classics]]" line in 1990; these releases has the [[rubsign]] indent removed from the molding.

: Brawl normally operates as Bruticus' left leg, but as a [[Scramble City]]-style combiner, he can also act as any other limb for any other combination of robots who share the connection design.

: In 1987, Brawl also came with a randomly-packed Decepticon [[Decoy]] and accompanying mini-comic/checklist.

: This mold was [[redeco]]ed as ''[[Operation Combination]]'' [[Sandstorm (OC)|Sandstorm]], ''[[Generation 2]]'' Brawl, ''[[Robots in Disguise]]'' [[Armorhide (RID)|Armorhide]] (twice!) and finally ''[[Universe]]'' Armorhide.

Movor

2007-06-27T21:28:04Z

71.38.12.25: /* Robots in Disguise */

:''Movor is a [[Decepticon]] from the [[Robots in Disguise]] [[continuity family]].''

[[Image:MovorRID01.jpg|thumb|250px|"Curse those pesky power-brats!"]]

'''Movor''' is a member of the [[Commando|Commandos]], the team that combines into [[Ruination]]. With [[Ro-Tor (RiD)|Ro-Tor]], he is one half of the Decepticons' aerial strike force, though his aim leaves something to be desired. He's a somewhat sarcastic character who likes observing things from high above the ground and making pop culture references.

Curiously, he prefers baths in lukewarm water.

:''Japanese name'': '''Shuttler'''

==Fiction==
===Robots in Disguise Cartoon===
'''Voice actor:''' [[Robert Axelrod]] (US)

Movor was one of several Autobot [[protoform]]s who was converted into a Decepticon by the [[Predacon (RID)|Predacons]]. While attempting to choose a vehicle mode for the protoform to scan, [[Sky-Byte]] tripped and set off the scanner. The beam nearly hit an eagle (which would have made him a Predacon), but instead, it hit a low flying space shuttle.

Movor would become a staple of the Decepticon team. As a component of Ruination, he served as either the arm or leg of Ruination, depending on the combiner's focus in battle. At one point, Movor became the crux of one of the Decepticons' plans, after they took a shuttle hostage and replaced it with Movor. Once in orbit, Movor attempted to track numerous Autobots (including [[Tow-Line (RID)|Tow-Line]], [[Prowl (RID)|Prowl]], and [[X-Brawn]]) with the intention of finding the Autobots' base, but ultimately, he found himself wasting time watching them go about their everyday activities. Once he set his sights on [[Side Burn (RID)|Side Burn]], who was in the process of chasing Kelly's red convertable (yet again), Movor began leading the other Decepticons to numerous erroneous locations, which were all destroyed.

The Autobots caught wise to the scheme, and lured Side Burn - and by extension, the Decepticons - to Pier 7B. The other Decepticons were led into an ambush while Movor remained high in orbit. When the shuttle attempted to help his comrades, he inadvertently shot [[Scourge (RID)|Scourge]] (twice!) while trying to take out [[Optimus Prime (RID)|Optimus Prime]], making the whole plan a bust. Once it was over, Movor was knocked out of orbit by a satellite.

Movor would continue to play the role of orbital recon, as well as a member of the Decepticons' attack force. When Scourge turned on [[Megatron (RID)|Megatron]], he went along with it same as the others, only to be reprogrammed again by Megatron when the plan failed. Later, he would actually succeed in tracking one of the Autobots to their base, allowing the villains to destroy it. However, he fell along with the rest of Megatron's forces, and was incarcerated on an asteroid prison.

===Universe===

==Toys==
===Robots in Disguise===
*'''Movor''' (Basic, 2000, 2001)
:''Japanese ID number'': '''D-008'''

: A [[redeco]] of the [[Generation 1]] [[Blast Off]] toy, Movor transforms into a Space Shuttle. He has a pair of large non-firing cannons that clip onto the back of his shuttle mode or on the pegs under his wings. As the toy uses the [[Scramble City]] style of connection, he can form any limb to any combination of similar robots, though naturally he normally forms a limb to the combined robot [[Ruination]].

: He was first released as part of the [[Takara]] ''Car Robots'' line in 2000. In 2001, [[Hasbro]] released the toy as part of the ''Robots in Disguise'' series. There are a couple of [[paint application]] differences between the two releases; the most immediately noticeable being that the Hasbro version uses Decepticon sigils instead of the "Anti-Cybertron" ones. The Hasbro version also uses silver paint for the windshield rather than Takara's metallic purple.

: This mold was also used to make [[Shuttle Gunner]].

*'''Valdigus''' (Multi-pack, 2000)
:''Japanese ID number'': '''D-011'''

: In Japan, Movor/Shuttler was also made available as part of a compete team multi-pack with his teammates [[Armorhide (RID)|Armorhide]], [[Mega-Octane]], [[Rollbar (RID)|Rollbar]] and [[Ro-Tor (RID)|Ro-Tor]]. All toys were identical to their individual Japanese releases, but the set only came with a bio card for the combined form.

*'''Ruination''' (Ultra, 2003)

: The entire Commando team was redecoed in various shades of gray with "urban camo" patterns as part of a Wal-Mart [[exclusive]] gift set, oddly released well after the end of the ''Robots in Disguise'' line. Movor was also slightly [[retool]]ed, blunting his nosecone significantly.

===Universe===
*'''Ruination''' (Ultra, 2004)

: The entire Ruination team was redecoed ''again'' to make ''another'' Wal-Mart exclusive set (why?), this time with a unified "desert camo" theme under the ''[[Universe]]'' banner. It came out at the same time as five ''other'' Wal-Mart ''Transformers'' exclusives, which lead to a glut. Ruination seemed a particularly slow mover in this batch.

==Trivia==
* According to [[Aaron Archer]] at [[BotCon 2002]], Movor's name is simply indicative of the fact he... moves. Move-or. Yes, really. Shut up.

* The episode "[[Attack from Outer Space]]", which featured Movor's bumbled attempts at orbital bombardment, was not aired on Fox Kids, due to post-September 11 sensitivity.

Landcross (G1)

2007-06-24T03:24:05Z

71.38.12.25: /* Zone OAV */

:''Landcross is an [[Autobot]] [[combiner]] in the [[Victory (franchise)|Victory]] and [[Micromaster Collection]] portions of the [[Generation 1]] [[continuity family]].''

'''Landcross''' is the combined form of all three [[Multiforce]] warriors, making him the combined form of all six Multiforce warriors.

Landcross is comprised of:
*[[Wingwaver]] (the combined form of [[Wing]] and [[Waver]])
*[[Dashtacker]] (the combined form of [[Dash]] and [[Tacker]])
*[[Machtackle]] (the combined form of [[Mach]] and [[Tackle]])

==Fiction==
===''Victory'' anime===
:''Voice actor: [[Masashi Hironaka]] (Japan)''

===''Victory'' manga===
===Zone OAV===
Landcross was seen among other High-ranking Autobots (such as [[Road Caesar]], [[Grand Maximus]], [[Metalhawk]], [[Lander]], and the Autobot [[Godmaster|Godmasters]]) when [[Dai Atlas]] is sworn-in by [[Star Saber (G1)|Victory Saber]] as the new [[Supreme Commander]] of the Autobot forces.

===Micromaster Collection===
After falling through a dimensional rift while testing their new stealth modes, the Multiforce combined into Landcross to fight [[Sixwing|Berserker Sixwing]]. They kicked his butt.

==Toys==
===Victory===
*'''Landcross''' (1989)
: ''Japanese ID number:'' '''C-319'''
:The original version of Landcross was available both as a giftset and separately as Wingwaver, Dashtaker, and Machtackle, although the individual robots were never sold separately. In addition to transforming separately into robot and vehicle modes and combining into Landcross, the six toys could also be combined in two-robot pairs, with one robot forming the head, upper torso, and arms and the other forming the lower torso and legs. The six robots' guns could be combined into a single large weapon.

===Micromaster Collection===
* '''Landcross''' (Micromaster, 2002)
:In 2004, the entire Multiforce was re-released as part of the Micromaster Collection (despite having never previously been considered Micromasters), in individual boxes with a number visible to show which mold was inside each box. For this release, all of the decals from the original version were replaced with paint applications. Landcross could only be assembled by buying all six components individually; he was never offered as a complete set.

:In every case of twelve Multiforce "Micromasters," two of them were solid-black-plastic "stealth mode" variations. All six toys were available in this manner, and could be combined into a black "stealth mode" Landcross.

==Trivia==
*While the relationship between the ''Micromaster Collection'' versions of [[Sixliner]], [[Sixturbo]], Sixwing, [[Sixbuilder]], and [[Sixtrain]] and their counterparts in ''[[Operation Combination]]'' (or ''[[Battlestars]]'' in the case of Sixliner) is unclear, the ''Micromaster Collection'' Multiforce are explicitly the same as the ''Victory'' Multiforce, and thus the ''Micromaster Collection'' Landcross is the same character as the ''Victory'' Landcross.
*Oddly enough, only half of ''Land''cross's components transform into land vehicles.
