'''As the Autobots race to save Jungle Planet, Optimus Prime and Galvatron have their final battle, where one shall stand...one shall fall.'''

==Synopsis==
The universe at large is safe (for now), but unfortunately, the Jungle Planet has been knocked well out of its natural orbit. Plans are made to put it back where it belongs using the [[Ark (Cybertron)|''Ark'']], but the remaining Decepticons intervene, led by none other than Galvatron. Despite Optimus Prime's insistence that the war is over, Galvatron still wants to finish it—and to the surprise of his comrades, Prime agrees to settle things with him one-on-one.

Scourge and his friends leave for their own home, while Optimus Prime and Galvatron battle on one of Cybertron's moons. Galvatron gains the upper hand against him, leading Prime's friends to come down, hoping to help, only for Galvatron to unleash a barrage of energy, defeating them all. Finally, laughing triumphantly, he prepares to lay the finishing blow as everyone looks on in horror...

But the attack is stayed by [[Vector Prime]]'s planet map, flying from the pocket of [[Bud Hansen|Bud]] as a ball of white light. Prime, barely conscious, receives a vision from Vector Prime, who promises always to be watching over him and provides him with a gift. Back on the moon, Galvatron is stunned to see Prime rise once again, surging with power and wielding a sword of his own. Tired to no end of their war, and indeed of each other, they determine that it will end here, and dramatically clash one last time.

When the dust settles, Galvatron has the sword stuck through his body, but he insists that he can still function. Even his resolve cannot keep him going through his injuries, however, and his body disintegrates. Moments later, an exhausted Prime collapses to his knees, but he assures his worried friends that they won't get rid of him that easily.

Chaar

74.63.75.130: /* Trivia */ the Starcraft planet is spelled Char

{{disambig3|Chaar}}

:''Chaar is a planet from the [[Generation 1]] [[continuity family]].''

[[Image:Chaar City.JPG|right|300px|thumb|Sure the rent's low, but would you want Galvatron as your landlord? Or Soundwave as your neighbor? And you know the Predacons are just gonna mess up your yard.]]

'''Chaar''' is the planet where the [[Decepticon]]s settled after being driven from [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]]. It is a burned-out, barren husk of a planet. The planet is far from dead, however, what with the monstrous [[Chaar spider]] and [[energy leech]]es. Deadly, but not dead.

{{quote|Our charts don't show any planets in that sector... no, wait, here it is. I thought it was a smudge on the screen.|[[Hot Rod (G1)|Rodimus Prime]] finds Chaar on the galactic map, while showing what an effective leader he is|[[Five Faces of Darkness, Part 1]]}}

:'''Japanese name:''' ''Jaaru'' (ジャール)
:'''English-Malay dub name:''' ''Chollo''

==Fiction==
===Generation 1 cartoon===
After the battle against [[Unicron]], the [[Autobot]]s successfully drove away all the Decepticons occupying [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]]. With [[Galvatron (G1)|Galvatron]] missing, the Decepticons became directionless and chose to seek refuge on the burned-out world of Chaar.

The Decepticons nearly starved to death on the wasteland of a planet, until [[Cyclonus (G1)|Cyclonus]] and [[Scourge (G1)|Scourge]] successfully retrieved Galvatron from his resting place on [[Thrull]]. Reinvigorated, the Decepticons gradually transformed the planet into a suitable place to live, with cities and battle stations.

====Robot Masters====
The Autobot [[Road Rocket]] resided on Chaar before coming to Earth to be [[Optimus Prime (G1)|Optimus Prime's]] bodyguard.<ref>Robot Masters takes place in 2004, meaning Road Rocket apparently lived there before the Decepticons took over.</ref>

====Victory====
The [[Dinoforce]] hail from Chaar.<ref>According to their toyline bios.</ref>

===Dreamwave comics===
Once a populated planet, Charr became a barren wasteland crisscrossed by lava flows as a result of natural disaster.<ref>Glossary of terms in Dreamwave's MTMTE #8</ref>

==Trivia==
* Char is the name of a volcanic ash world in the computer game [[wikipedia:Starcraft|Starcraft]], which the villains of the game, an insectoid species called the Zerg, use as an intergalactic hideout. Makes you wonder if Blizzard's programmers are G1 fans?

74.63.75.130: Henkei Jetfire -> Skyfire

{{disambig3|Jetfire}}
{{disambig3|Skyfire}}
:''Jetfire is an [[Autobot|Autobot]] from the [[Generation 1 (franchise)|Generation 1]] [[Continuity family|continuity family]]. In the cartoon continuity, he was known as '''Skyfire'''.''

[[Image:G1Jetfire MarvelTFU.jpg|right|300px|thumb|Science means that not all dreams can come true.]]
'''Jetfire''' is a bot of science, literally. Not only is his mind dedicated towards scientific pursuits, but his body is a testament to the technology he studies so intensely. (Some would say "religiously," but not in his presence.) Every inch of his chassis is cutting-edge and kept up-to-date. However, he does not have the trust of his teammates; it was not so long ago that he was a Decepticon. Jetfire is compassionate, so some Autobots feel that he could be soft on their enemies or, even worse, he may turn on them after realizing his "cold calculations" swing the other way.

Jetfire would find their misconceptions about science appalling. After all, is not science just the pursuit of truth? And truth, he maintains, walks hand-in-hand with liberty.

:''Preliminary name'': '''Fireball'''
:''Alternative name:'' '''Skyfire'''

===Cartoon continuity===
====Generation 1 cartoon====
:''Voice actor:'' [[Gregg Berger|Gregg Berger]] (English), [[Osamu Saka|Osamu Saka]] (Japanese)

{{note|In the animated series, Jetfire went by the name '''Skyfire'''. His character model was significantly altered from the toy, as was his appearance in nearly all media. See [[Jetfire (G1)|Why "Skyfire"?]], below.}}

[[Image:Jetfireskyfire.jpg|left|180px|thumb|They dug him out of the Arctic to be their taxi.]]
[[MYA|Millions of years ago]] on Cybertron, before the war, Skyfire and [[Starscream (G1)|Starscream]] were good friends and fellow scientists. On a mission of exploration to prehistoric Earth, Skyfire was lost in a storm. Starscream searched, but there was no sign of his comrade. He returned home.

Millions of years later, after the Autobots and Decepticons had crashed and awoken on Earth, the Decepticons found Skyfire, encased in a block of Arctic ice, and revived him. Skyfire joined them due to his past friendship with Starscream, though he expressed discomfort with their methods. When Skyfire's compassion for humans led to his disobeying orders, Starscream, who had changed much in the intervening millennia, turned on his friend. Skyfire left the Decepticons and joined the Autobots, sacrificing himself to be buried beneath the ice again to stop the Decepticons' plans. The Autobots held a memorial service in his memory at the location of his involuntary burial. {{storylink|Fire in the Sky|Fire in the Sky}}

The Autobots returned later to dig him up when they needed a ride down to South America. Megatron and his Decepticons were in [[Peru|Peru]] seeking the [[Crystal of Power|Crystal of Power]], which was kept in an Incan temple. After battling the Decepticons, Skyfire arrived at the temple to find [[Thundercracker (G1)|Thundercracker]] guarding it and the crystal inside. Thundercracker was angry at Starscream, and was willing to let Skyfire past him to destroy the crystal so long as Starscream got in trouble. Starscream overheard this and shot Skyfire in the back, knocking him out.

At one point, Optimus Prime actually pats Skyfire on his jet mode's nosecone, like a dog. Sucks to be Skyfire. {{storylink|Fire on the Mountain|Fire on the Mountain}}

[[Image:Skyfire Gerwalk.jpg|right|150px|thumb|Mid-transformation, or a reference to the toy's "third mode"? CHOOSE WISELY.]]
As the old adage goes, do something right once, and it's your job. From then on, Skyfire's only apparent duty was to shuttle the Autobots around Earth and even to Cybertron (when it was in Earth orbit). {{storylink|The Ultimate Doom, Part 2|The Ultimate Doom, Part 2}} {{storylink|The Ultimate Doom, Part 3|The Ultimate Doom, Part 3}} {{storylink|A Plague of Insecticons|A Plague of Insecticons}} {{storylink|Attack of the Autobots|Attack of the Autobots}} {{storylink|The Immobilizer|The Immobilizer}} {{storylink|Day of the Machines|Day of the Machines}}

In 2006, Skyfire (or a very similar space vehicle) can be briefly seen as part of the Autobot fleet attacking the [[Quintesson|Quintessons]]. He was shot along with [[Powerglide|Powerglide]] and several [[Aerialbot (G1)|Aerialbots]]. The Aerialbots survived so Skyfire might have survived as well. {{storylink|Dark Awakening|Dark Awakening}}

<div style="width: 90%; margin: 0 auto .2em auto; background-color:#efefef; border: 2px solid #eeeeee; padding: 2px; text-align: left;">'''Note:''' ''While in the English continuity, ''Generation 2'' Jetfire was the same character as ''Generation 1'' Jetfire/Skyfire, the same would not appear to be the case in Japan. In Japan, the ''Generation 1'' character was called "Skyfire" in the cartoon, which was the only Japanese media he appeared in, as his toy was never released in Japan. The "Jetfire" that appears in the ''Generation 2'' manga probably would have originally been a different character, though ''[[Robot Masters|Robot Masters]]'' backstory and the character's appearance in the ''15 Go! Go!'' comics seemed to consolidate the two retroactively.''</div>
[[Image:G2StoryPageWheeljackPerceptor1.jpg|left|250px|thumb|Ten points if you can find Wheeljack and Perceptor in this picture!]]
Jetfire was once friends with the Decepticon Cyberjets during his days back on Cybertron. However, after the war had raged on for centuries, two of his Cyberjet friends ([[Strafe (G2)|Strafe]] and [[Aero Raid|Aero Raid]]) began to have their doubts about the Decepticon cause. Taking Jetfire's advice, the two Cyberjets switched sides and became Autobots. This act forever earned Jetfire, Strafe and Aero Raid the hatred of the remaining loyal Decepticon Cyberjets.

At one point, [[Megatron (G1)|Megatron]] kidnapped the Autobot [[Laser Rod|Laser Rod]], [[Electro|Electro]]. While Megatron attempted to persuade Electro into joining the Decepticons, Jetfire infiltrated the headquarters. Busting-in at full-force, Jetfire took the Decepticons by surprise and managed to successfully rescue his fellow Autobot. {{storylink|Generation 2 (manga)|Generation 2 (manga)}}

Jetfire was also the head of a research team staffed by [[Wheeljack (G1)|Wheeljack]] and [[Perceptor (G1)|Perceptor]] that discovered a [[Reconfiguration Matrix|new attribute]] of the [[Matrix of Leadership|Matrix]]. This discovery allowed Optimus Prime to survive a fatal attack from Megatron and form a newer, more powerful body.

====''15 Go! Go!''====
[[Image:TGGJetfire1.jpg|right|250px|thumb|Whoever he is, he looks awesome.]]On a trip into the future with her companion [[Steeljaw|Steeljaw]], the humanoid computer [[Teletraan 15|Teletraan 15]] encountered the Autobot scientist Jetfire. He immediately realized that they had come from a different time and cautioned them that the area was about to become a war zone. Recognizing Jetfire's scent despite the unfamiliar body, Steeljaw asked if he was the same being as his old warrior acquaintance.
Concerned for the pair's safety, Jetfire offered to take them to his commander, unaware that the Decepticons [[Smokescreen (G2)|Smokescreen]] and [[Dreadwing (G2)|Dreadwing]] were following. Under heavy attack, Jetfire and his passengers were saved by the intervention of [[Optimus Prime (G1)|Battle Convoy]].

[[Image:TGGJetfire2.jpg|left|250px|thumb|Bandai's gonna suuuuue.]]After the battle, Teletraan 15 recorded Jetfire's information and announced that her mission to restore [[Teletraan I (G1)|Teletraan I]]'s damaged databanks was at last complete.
Before she and Steeljaw returned to their own era, Jetfire asked 15 to tell him something: in her travels through time, had she ever discovered when the fighting would end? When would the progress of science finally bring about peace?

[[Image:Jetfireg1marvel1.jpg|right|250px|thumb|Brainless Jetfire brings home small mammals.]]
Early in the war on [[Earth|Earth]], [[Shockwave (G1)|Shockwave]] held the head of [[Optimus Prime (G1)|Optimus Prime]] captive, hoping to use the [[Matrix of Leadership|Creation Matrix]] he possessed to create a new army of Decepticons. Optimus Prime had secretly passed the energies of the Matrix onto the teenaged [[Human|human]], [[Buster Witwicky|Buster Witwicky]], so Shockwave was stopped short of giving Jetfire's constructed body life. Shockwave soon learned of the human's involvement, so he sent Jetfire after the human anyway, though the lifeless robot could do nothing more than follow orders. When Jetfire found Buster, he was accompanied by the Autobots [[Bluestreak|Bluestreak]] and [[Bumblebee (G1)|Bumblebee]] for his protection, but it was Buster's Creation Matrix powers that ultimately disassembled Jetfire before their eyes. Buster reassembled Jetfire, and with Bumblebee's help, changes were made to allow Buster to directly control him. {{storylink|Brainstorm!|Brainstorm!}}

[[Image:Jetfireisafunnyguy.jpg|left|180px|thumb|A sense of humor that borders on murderous negligence.]]
However, Jetfire's programming reasserted itself, and maneuvered so wildly that Buster, riding in the cockpit, blacked out. Buster woke up inside Shockwave's base (a former [[Blackrock Industries|Blackrock Industries]] plant), strapped to a machine ready to drill the Creation Matrix out of him. In the meantime, knowing that the Autobots were eavesdropping on him, Shockwave sent Jetfire to drop a fake Optimus Prime head at a disclosed location for the Autobots to find. The fake head attached itself to Optimus Prime's body and began attacking the Autobots, causing many injuries. At the last moment, Buster was able to control Jetfire once again, knocking out Shockwave, and delivering the true Optimus Prime head to the Autobots, allowing them a costly victory. {{storylink|Prime Time!|Prime Time!}}

With Optimus Prime fully restored, Jetfire was quickly given life and joined the Autobots. ''He was briefly mistrusted due to his Decepticon origin, and during the Dinobot Hunt Ironhide resented being given orders by someone with a Decepticon badge; Jetfire proved himself by restraining [[Slag (G1)|Slag]], and had his Decepticon badge torn off in the process. {{storylink|Dinobot Hunt!|Dinobot Hunt!}}[[Wheeljack (G1)|Wheeljack]], who still didn't trust Jetfire, almost deactivated him and returned him to the Decepticons as part of a deal for technology with Ravage, but decided against it at the last minute.'' {{storylink|Perchance to Dream|Perchance to Dream}}

Having proven himself, he was granted the [[Rite of the Autobrand|Rite of the Autobrand]] marking him as one of their rank. {{storylink|Rock and Roll-Out!|Rock and Roll-Out!}} When Bumblebee, depressed, had left the Autobots and gotten himself attacked by the Decepticons, Jetfire eagerly came to his rescue. {{storylink|Plight of the Bumblebee!|Plight of the Bumblebee!}} Later, Jetfire helped the Autobots approach the Decepticon base to steal information that would allow them to build their own [[Combiner|combiners]]. {{storylink|Command Performances!|Command Performances!}}

[[Image:Jetfireyourehit.jpg|right|200px|thumb|Naw, you think?]]
''When Optimus Prime and Prowl were lost in Limbo and Galvatron assumed command of the Decepticons, Jetfire became acting leader. His headstrong tactics got the Autobots defeated several times, and out of desperation he even formed an alliance with [[Megatron (G1)|Megatron]] and [[Soundwave (G1)|Soundwave]]. He also mistrusted Ultra Magnus, thinking his arrival too convenient. However, after seeing Magnus be beaten half to death trying to stop Galvatron, Jetfire realised he was wrong and came to his aid. When the future Decepticon was driven off, Jetfire thanked Magnus for all he'd done. {{storylink|Target 2006|Target 2006}}''

[[Image:Skalorjetfiredie.jpg|left|150px|thumb|At least look at him when you're killing him, Starscream!]]''Soon afterwards, several missions made Jetfire worry that his response time was quicker when humans were in danger than Autobots were, and he talked with Buster Witwicky to come to terms with this; he came to realise that it was because he viewed Earth as his home, as he'd been built there.'' {{storylink|The Gift|The Gift}} He also accompanied [[Donny Finkleberg|Donny Finkleberg]] to the spot where Finkleberg claimed seven Autobots had crossed over from [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]], though they found nothing but traces of oil. {{storylink|Aerialbots over America!|Aerialbots over America!}}

After the death of Optimus Prime, Jetfire voted for the [[Dinobot (G1)|Dinobot]] [[Grimlock (G1)|Grimlock]] to take command. He later seemed to regret this decision, offering to help [[Blaster (G1)|Blaster]] usurp him, and when the rivalry ended in a duel staged on Earth's moon, he was among the Autobots who watched. When the Autobots were ambushed by the entire Decepticon army, he was blasted out of the sky by both [[Vortex (G1)|Vortex]] and [[Laserbeak (G1)|Laserbeak]]. {{storylink|Totaled!|Totaled!}}

Jetfire was destroyed along with the [[Aerialbot (G1)|Aerialbots]] and countless others in [[New York City|New York]] when [[Starscream (G1)|Starscream]] absorbed the power of the [[Underbase|Underbase]]. {{storylink|Dark Star!|Dark Star!}}

Before the war, the scientist Jetfire and [[Starscream (G1)|Starscream]] were friends. But when Starscream joined the Decepticons in their assault on outlying city-states, Jetfire was torn. If he followed his beliefs and upheld justice and life, he would end up facing his dearest friend on the battlefield. Jetfire did end up with the Autobots, but not before a barrier of distrust had been built between them due to his inaction and his past loyalties.

These loyalties came to a head during a period when [[Optimus Prime (G1)|Optimus Prime]] and [[Megatron (G1)|Megatron]] were presumed lost forever, the two factions splintered into five. Events conspired behind the scenes, building up to an unknown crescendo, and Jetfire was suspicious. Putting his already-shaky trustworthiness on the line, he met up with [[Shockwave (G1)|Shockwave]] in secret to discuss the looming front of darkness. However, the source of these machinations, [[The Fallen|the Fallen]], had leaked their correspondence to [[Grimlock (G1)|Grimlock]], who held a grudge against the scientist. {{storylink|Devastation (Dreamwave issue)|Devastation (Dreamwave issue)}}

[[Image:Jetfireg1dw.jpg|left|180px|thumb|I've always said there's nothing an agnostic can't do if he really doesn't know whether he believes in anything or not.]]
Grimlock assaulted Jetfire at his intended meeting place, but both were overwhelmed by the Fallen and dragged far inside [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]] and strapped to a four-paneled contraption in the [[Well of All Sparks|Well of All Sparks]]. {{storylink|Confrontation (issue)|Confrontation}} Jetfire, Grimlock, [[Hot Spot (G1)|Hot Spot]], and [[Blitzwing (G1)|Blitzwing]] were the "[[Angles of Dissolution|Angles of Dissolution]]," four "unique sparks" which could catalyze the breach of the [[Seal of Primus|Seal of Primus]]. Combined forces from several factions penetrated the Fallen's operation, but despite Jetfire and Grimlock's teamwork, the Fallen was destroyed only by his own scheme -- the hand of [[Primus|Primus]] reached out, awakened from his slumber, and smote the enigmatic being to pieces. Jetfire, a skeptic towards things supernatural, began to wonder if there might be something bigger than them going on, something no one could comprehend. {{storylink|Conflagration|Conflagration}}

Long after, Jetfire and [[Omega Supreme (G1)|Omega Supreme]] were sent out into space to search for the missing [[Ark (G1)|Ark]]. Arriving on [[Earth|Earth]], they were attacked by [[Scourge (G1)|Scourge]], but Jetfire disabled him with an EM pulse from their ship. When he ventured outside to identify his assailant, he was caught in an avalanche and buried in ice.

[[Image:DWAtonement Jetfire Sunstorm.jpg|right|200px|thumb|The power of Primus compels you!]]
Millions of years later he was found by [[Starscream (G1)|Starscream]] and stored aboard the [[Nemesis (G1)|Nemesis]], still encased in a block of ice. When the zealot [[Sunstorm (G1)|Sunstorm]] arrived on Earth, Starscream freed Jetfire from his icy prison to stop him. {{storylink|Black Sunshine|Black Sunshine}} An uneasy alliance formed between Jetfire, Starscream, and [[Bumblebee (G1)|Bumblebee]]'s team of Autobots as they tried to come up with a plan to stop the unbelievably powerful [[Seeker|Seeker]], but Sunstorm was unstoppable. Jetfire started to consider that Sunstorm might be supernatural, despite his natural skepticism. {{storylink|Skyfire (comic issue)|Skyfire (comic issue)}} During their encounter, Jetfire realized that Sunstorm's internal fusion reactor was about to go critical, and flew him up into space where he could explode without risk to the Earth. Jetfire was seemingly annihilated in the explosion. His demise caused Bumblebee to throw down his arms and quit the war. {{storylink|Atonement|Atonement}}

{{Note|It was revealed long after the demise of [[Dreamwave|Dreamwave]] that an issue was planned that involved the return of both Jetfire and the Fallen, meaning his "death" would not have been final.}}

Years of war had put the Transformers' home world of [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]] through too much punishment, meaning a spiral into planet-wide cataclysm, a consequence the scientist [[Thunderwing (G1)|Thunderwing]] had foreseen. Jetfire and other Transformers scientists ignored his warning, until it was too late. Thunderwing underwent the [[Pretender|polydermal grafting]] process he had developed, and was driven insane, forcing the Autobots and Decepticons to unite and try to stop him. Jetfire spent the battle trying to figure out a way to effectively counter Thunderwing, but Cybertron itself swallowed Thunderwing before he could find a way. Cybertron was abandoned as a result.

Seven hundred stellar cycles later, and against regulations, Jetfire and the [[Technobot|Technobots]] traveled to the supposedly-abandoned husk of Cybertron from their science vessel, the ''[[Calabi-Yau|Calabi-Yau]]'', to investigate a strange energy reading. Though it violated several command directives, Jetfire decided to lead a recon mission to the surface. Despite the misgivings everyone had, Jetfire remained adamant that they investigate, saying that a failure to investigate was what doomed Cybertron to begin with. Upon arriving on the dead surface of the planet near [[Thunderhead Pass|Thunderhead Pass]], Jetfire, [[Scattershot|Scattershot]], [[Afterburner (G1)|Afterburner]], and [[Lightspeed (Technobot)|Lightspeed]] were ambushed by a mysterious group of robots with stealth abilities. The Technobots were badly damaged and Jetfire was captured. When he revived, he found his [[Pretender|captors]] worshiping the reanimated corpse of Thunderwing. {{storylink|Stormbringer issue 1|Stormbringer issue 1}}

[[Image:Stormbringer4 JetfirePrime plainlanguage.jpg|left|300px|thumb|I just plumb don't understand alla' yer fancy talkin'...]]
Their leader, [[Bludgeon (G1)|Bludgeon]], wished to revisit the mad scientist's plot and harness the power that accelerated the planet's death in a apocalyptic torrent all those years ago. Jetfire pleaded with Bludgeon not to again unleash the powers that destroyed their planet, but he was ignored, and his attempts to escape were thwarted. {{storylink|Stormbringer issue 2|Stormbringer issue 2}} Thanks to a distress signal sent by the remaining Technobots in the ''Calabi-Yau'', [[Optimus Prime (G1)|Optimus Prime]] and the [[Wrecker|Wreckers]] soon arrived, released Jetfire, and defeated his captors, just before an alert system announced the arrival of Thunderwing, newly reborn. {{storylink|Stormbringer issue 3|Stormbringer issue 3}}

Fortunately Jetfire was able to figure out that the [[Ultra-Energon|Ultra-Energon]] powering Thunderwing would be depleted in a prolonged struggle. This allowed Optimus Prime, the Wreckers, and the [[Predacon (G1)|Predacons]] to stop the monstrosity without destroying Cybertron. {{storylink|Stormbringer issue 4|Stormbringer issue 4}}

Jetfire was later called in to take the [[Pretender Monster|Pretender Monsters]] to the [[Garrus-9|Garrus-9]] prison and attempt to cure them. {{storylink|Spotlight: Optimus Prime|Spotlight: Optimus Prime}} Every previous attempt had failed, but whether he may have found a cure to their combined minds was then rendered moot when the Decepticons attacked and abducted the Monsters. He convinced [[Fortress Maximus (G1)|Fortress Maximus]] to let [[Arcee (G1)|Arcee]] "escape" to hunt the Monsters down, and they would invent some story afterward. {{storylink|Spotlight: Arcee|Spotlight: Arcee}}

Shortly after Optimus Prime arrived on Garrus-9, [[Cyclonus (G1)|Cyclonus]] activated the [[Nega-Core|Nega-Core]] and its guardian, Thunderwing, on [[Corata-Vaz|Corata-Vaz]]. Prime ordered Jetfire to summon the Wreckers to face off against Thunderwing again. {{storylink|Spotlight: Cyclonus|Spotlight: Cyclonus}} Unfortunately the Wreckers proved to be little more than an annoyance to the guardian, and Jetfire, believing he had ironed out the bugs, received permission to test Thunderwing's experiment on four Autobots, deciding things couldn't really get much worse. {{storylink|Spotlight: Hardhead|Spotlight: Hardhead}}

With the experiments taking a while, Jetfire decided to re-use Bludgeon's Axis Cradle and use it to take control of, and shut down, Thunderwing. {{storylink|Spotlight: Doubledealer|Spotlight: Doubledealer}} This saw him marked for death by [[Jhiaxus|Jhiaxus]], who took remote mental control of Bludgeon's body on Garrus-9. Faced with a hideous monster about to kill and his own inability to move, Jetfire... calmly noticed how slowly Bludgeon was moving, worked out Jhiaxus was trying to control the monster ''and'' monitor pan-galactic fronts, and baited him with the imminent collapse of his strategy, causing Jhiaxus to freeze in panic.

After the crisis was over, Jetfire covertly monitored [[Gorlam Prime|Gorlam Prime]] in its transformation into a new Cybertron. {{storylink|Spotlight: Sideswipe|Spotlight: Sideswipe}}

With most of the Autobots defeated, the severely damaged Jetfire was with Optimus Prime's crew in the [[Pegasus Star Cluster|Pegasus Star Cluster]], the last pocket of Autobot resistance in the galaxy. After the treacherous [[Mirage (G1)|Mirage]] conned his way into their bunker and allowed the Decepticons in, he used Jetfire's life as a bargaining chip (despite [[Ratchet (G1)|Ratchet]]'s best efforts to protect him) to get Optimus Prime to surrender. [[Hound (G1)|Hound]] refused to give up fighting until he realized just how badly Jetfire needed repairs. {{storylink|Spotlight: Mirage|Spotlight: Mirage}}

[[Ramjet (G1)|Ramjet]] questioned [[Starscream (G1)|Starscream]] about the new mech they found frozen in a glacier up in the Arctic Circle, but Starscream had ''unsavory'' plans for it involving a mask/helmet thing.

Back down in [[Japan|Japan]], the [[Seeker|Seekers]] were raiding an energy plant, revealing the newcomer as Skyfire. Amidst the plundering, Skyfire pleaded with Starscream to stop shooting at the [[Human|human]] workers, but to no avail. Luckily, the Autobots showed up to save the workers. Skyfire's pleas caused Starscream to yell at him, exclaiming that Skyfire's reason for living is to be a soldier. Just before getting shot at, Skyfire finally ripped off the control helmet and declared himself a scientist (with a sweet new Autobot symbol, too). However, he said he ''will'' become a soldier, if only to defend humans from those like his old friend. Watching the Seekers retreat, Skyfire wistfully reminisced that he and Starscream never really got along that well in the past, anyway. {{storylink|Henkei! Henkei! (pack-in comic)|Henkei! Henkei!

==Toys==
===Generation 1===
[[Image:Jetfireg1toy.jpg|right|300px|thumb|Don't expect Takara to reissue this toy any time soon. Tech specs 6 10 10 5 10 9 7 9 STRINTSPDENDRNKCRGFPWSKL ]]
* '''Jetfire''' (1985)
*''Accessories:'' "Photon Missile Launcher", rifle mounting pod, "Turbo Thruster" booster pack, 2 leg guards (left & right), 2 arm guards, 2 fenders

: A [[Takatoku Toys|Takatoku]] ''Macross'' VF-1S Super Valkyrie box set was repainted, repackaged, and released with an Autobot symbol (and some minor retooling of the nose cone) and named Jetfire. Jetfire features three modes: robot, jet, and an "alternate transformation" that deploys his arms and legs in jet mode. Additionally, Jetfire comes with several red pieces of armor and rocket booster backpack that can snap onto his arms, legs, and back in any mode. Due to his ''Macross'' origins, Jetfire has considerably more articulation than the other ''Transformers'' in the line at the time.

: Naturally, Jetfire was not released in Japan, since the toy (or at least, a dozen variations of it) was released by one of [[Takara|Takara]]'s rival toy companies.

:The shoulder assembly where the jet mode folds in half for robot mode is one of the more commonly broken parts in the early ''Transformers'' toy line. The more rigid plastic used on the armor pieces also means that it's not uncommon for their attachment clips to have snapped off. And finally, the small black clip-piece that attaches Jetfire's rifle to his jet mode is possibly one of the most commonly missing accessories on secondhand Jetfires, if not secondhand Transformers all around. The fact that the instructions don't tell you what to do with it doesn't help. The piece is used to hold Jetfire's rifle via the clip attached to the arm, as well as under the jetmode as a belly gun.

:There were two variations of the toy: One featuring the ''Macross'' UN Spacy logo on the wings, and one without the logo.

===Generation 2===
[[Image:Jetfire-G2toy.jpg|right|300px|thumb|I'm not a traitor!]]
* '''Jetfire''' (Cyberjet, 1995)
*''Japanese ID number:'' '''TRF-16'''
*''Accessories:'' 3 missiles

: Jetfire was released in ''[[Generation 2|Generation 2]]'' as one of the Autobot [[Cyberjet|Cyberjets]], a [[Redeco|redeco]] of the Decepticon [[Hooligan (G2)|Hooligan]]. He transforms into a proposed swing-wing naval variant of the F-22 Raptor. He is armed with a pressure-launched missile fired from his right arm, which also forms a weapon in fighter mode.

: Interestingly enough, his toy has Decepticon [[Faction symbol|faction symbol]] stickers, despite being released as an Autobot.

: The Japanese release of Jetfire came with an [[:Image:Jetfire-JG2decal.jpg|extra decal sheet]], featuring white tiger markings, extra ''Generation 2'' Autobot symbols (presumably to cover the Decepticon ones that were factory-applied), and "battle damage" markings.

:[[R-Blade|R-Blade]]'s expanded bio in the ''[[Robot Masters|Robot Masters]]'' sourcebook specifically mentions Jetfire as the leader of the Autobot Cyberjets, even though no mention of this is made in Jetfire's ''Generation 2'' bio, in the US ''or'' Japan.

===Titanium Series===
[[Image:Jetfiretitaniumwarwithin.jpg|right|200px|thumb|Unfortunate landing gear placement. Tech specs 6 10 10 5 10 9 7 9 STRINTSPDENDRNKCRGFPWSKL ]]
* '''Jetfire''' (6-inch Cybertron Heroes, 2006)
*''Accessories:'' 2 cannons, display stand with removable nameplate

: Jetfire is based on [[Don Figueroa|Don Figueroa]]'s design as seen in [[Dreamwave|Dreamwave]]'s ''The War Within'' miniseries, which in turn was based on Figueroa's scratch-build [[Custom|custom]] Transformer, [http://www.tfarchive.com/fandom/kitbashes/Don_Figueroa/Kitbash_Retrospective/?dgallery_show=./strikefire_2.jpg Strikefire]. He transforms into a Cybertronic fighter plane with armor add-ons.

: As with all ''Titanium Series'' figures, Jetfire's toy is constructed of both die-cast metal and molded plastic, and it comes with a plastic display stand featuring his name and his faction logo. In jet mode, landing gear can be deployed from underneath the fuselage and both legs. In robot mode, the two wing cannons can be removed to be held by the robot either separately or combined together into a single weapon.

===Classics===
[[Image:Jetfireclassicsvoyager.jpg|right|200px|thumb|We're getting almost as many Jetfires as we are Optimus Primes. Tech specs 6 10 10 6 10 9 7 9 STRINTSPDENDRNKCRGFBLSKL ]]
* '''Jetfire''' (Voyager, 2006)
*''Accessories:'' Rocket Booster pack, rifle, 2 missile launchers, 2 missiles, helmet

: ''[[Classics (2006)|Classics]]'' Jetfire's design is an amalgam of the original cartoon/comic model for Jetfire/Skyfire and the original toy. It not only features removable armor like the original toy, but the toy-inspired head can be removed like a helmet to reveal a cartoon/comic-inspired head. The jet mode pays [[Homage|homage]] to ''Generation 2'' Jetfire in being a <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variable_geometry_wing" class="extiw" title="wikipedia:Variable_geometry_wing">swing wing</a> aircraft, but while the body resembles the design of an F-14 Tomcat, which is the model of the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VF-1_Valkyrie" class="extiw" title="wikipedia:VF-1_Valkyrie">VF-1 Valkyrie</a>, the nosecone is unique. The toy's add-on booster packs have flip-out reveal cannons, and it also features arm-mounted spring-loaded missile launchers. Somewhat uselessly, the arms rotate below the elbows and at the wrists, but don't rotate above the elbows.

: An unexpected level of detail can be found on the black non-firing rifle; when it is assembled, the gun's "sight" comes together in a way that would be functional on a full-size weapon.

: The toy's design was first featured on the solicited cover to [[IDW|IDW]] ''[[Stormbringer (comics)|Stormbringer]]'' #1. Contrary to popular opinion, it was not designed by [[Don Figueroa|Don Figueroa]].

: A "ghost" [[Redeco|redeco]] of this toy, with black plastic and silvery electric paint deco, was shown by [[Hasbro|Hasbro]] in a news broadcast about their attempts to cheer up a Rhode Island orphan. Sadly, this version was never released.

: This mold was [[Retool|retooled]] to make the [[BotCon 2007|BotCon 2007]] version of [[Dreadwind (G1)|Dreadwind]], and [[Redeco|redecoed]] to make the ''[[Universe (2008)|Universe]]'' version of [[Tread Bolt|Tread Bolt]].

*'''Skyfire''' (Voyager, 2008)
*''Japanese ID number:'' '''C-06'''
*''Accessories:'' Rocket Booster pack, rifle, 2 missile launchers, 2 missiles, helmet

:''[[Henkei! Henkei!|Henkei! Henkei!]]'' Skyfire is an redeco of ''Classics'' Jetfire. The primary changes to his deco are mainly for better resemblance to Skyfire's Generation 1 cartoon model's appearance (in particular painting most of the canopy to make it appear smaller), rather than the Jetfire/''Macross'' design. Of amusement is the fact the fighter's airbrake has been painted blue to be a faux secondary canopy. As with all ''Henkei'' toys, he lacks the heat-sensitive rubsign seen on the ''Classics'' release, but instead has several [[Vacuum metalizing|vacuum-metallized]] parts (his jetpack's exhaust nozzles). It also includes a [[Henkei! Henkei! (pack-in comic)|mini-manga]] detailing the events that lead to Skyfire's appearance in the Henkei universe.

==Why "Skyfire"?==
[[Image:Jetfire-SkyfireModels.jpg|right|250px|thumb|I went from 98-ton weakling to muscle-bot on...the Dery plan!]]
We may never be certain of the exact circumstances behind the change from Jetfire to Skyfire. There are, however, a few known factors, and a lot of theories.

* Not all of Hasbro's ''Transformers'' product originated with [[Takara|Takara]]. Among others, the ''Macross'' Super Valkyrie, the toy that would become Jetfire, came from a company called [[Takatoku Toys|Takatoku Toys]]. Why did Hasbro market non-Takara product? [[Bob Prupis|Bob Prupis]], one of the original members of the Transformers marketing team, would frequently go to Toy Fairs in Asia, where ''"any product that really looked good that was exciting we didn't care where it came from. We did some work with Bandai, who had been working with other people, and took a few products that looked right for our line"''.<sup id="cite_ref-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-0" title="">[1]</a></sup> The Super Valkyrie, then, must have met their criteria for inclusion.

* As a larger toy, it would follow that Hasbro would want to sell Jetfire by including him in the Transformers animated series. However, even though Hasbro had the rights to release Takatoku's Super Valkyrie in the US ''Transformers'' toyline, Hasbro's chief collaborator on ''Transformers'' was still Takara. It may have been that Takara always had plans to air the Transformer animated series in their own market (as it featured a majority of their products), and objected to the inclusion of a competitor's product on the show. This may also be why no other Takatoku-designed toys appeared in the series, although their relatively smaller sizes as compared to Jetfire may have been a factor in Hasbro not including them.

* As the theory goes, the Jetfire animation model was adjusted to look less like the toy as a compromise to Takara. However - perhaps because it now failed to look like the product it was supposed to be advertising - the character became "Skyfire".

* Conversely, it is possible that licensing issues played in to the decisions to change Jetfire to Skyfire; the story [[Bible|bible]] for G1 writers mentions how Jetfire had been "transformed" into Skyfire for "legal reasons". See also [[Jetfire (G1)|Trivia]].

* The evidence of ''Robotech'' influencing Jetfire-related decisions is murky. That show began airing in syndication in March of 1985, whereas ''"Fire In The Sky"'', the first episode with Skyfire, aired December 8th, 1984 - and would have had to have been written and animated much before then. Statements indicate that it took nine months to edit Robotech together, placing the start of production somewhere around July of 1984. So... who knows. All that's certain is that Hasbro licensing the Super Valkyrie seemingly '''did''' prevent the use of that toy in Matchbox's ''Robotech'' toyline.

Beyond Prupis's statement and the notes in the story bible, however, nothing supporting (or denying) any of the previous statements have come out.

==Trivia==
[[Image:Jetfireg1commercial.jpg|right|250px|thumb|Lawsuit!]]
* The story bible for the original animated series contains a different character model for Jetfire, one clearly based on the actual toy. This model did appear twice "fictionally," once as a miscolored, partially-obscured background character in the [[The Last Stand!|fourth Marvel Comics issue]], and again in the animated portion of the commercial for Jetfire and [[Shockwave (G1)|Shockwave]]. It would also occasionally crop up in secondary media, such as coloring books.

* In fact, the Transformers story bible offers seemingly contradictory statements on Jetfire. An early page notes how ''"JETFIRE has been "transformed" into SKYFIRE -- with a different model -- due to legal reasons. Do not use this character unless necessary"'',<sup id="cite_ref-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-1" title="">[2]</a></sup> whereas a subsequent page on new Season 2 characters notes that ''"Although Reflector should no longer be used as a character in the series, JETFIRE will be redesigned and reintroduced in the near future"''.<sup id="cite_ref-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-2" title="">[3]</a></sup> As the Valkyrie-derived animation model never appeared in the cartoon, and Skyfire was never redesigned, it's uncertain just what these notes refer to.

* In the aforementioned Jetfire commercial, it claims that the ''Autobots'' created Jetfire, the "ultimate robot jet," to counter the Decepticon planes. As Sunstreaker, Hound, and Prowl are under attack, the trio release Jetfire from within an opening cliffside, revealing their new creation. (See image above.)

[[Image:Jetfire-Dutch.jpg|right|150px|thumb|Crazy moonman language!]]
*It's believed that there were some [[Trademark|trademark]] issues with the name "Optimus Prime" in the Netherlands due to a manufacturer of kitchen utensils named "Optimus".<sup id="cite_ref-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-3" title="">[4]</a></sup> Whether or not this was actually the case, Milton Bradley did not initially release Optimus Prime's toy, referred to Jetfire as the Autobot leader, and called Optimus "Jetfire" in the Dutch translation of the Marvel comic! Whatever the problem was, it was later rectified, as the Optimus Prime toy was later released and they stopped calling him "Jetfire" in the comic.

* The ''[[Energon (franchise)|Energon]]'' [[Omnicon|Omnicon]] [[Skyblast (Energon)|Skyblast]] was created as an [[Homage|homage]] to Skyfire. He would have been given the name "Skyfire" as well, but the trademark had been secured (and Registered) by Hasbro rival Mattel. Also on the homage front, ''Robot Masters'' [[R-Blade|R-Blade]] features a very Jetfirey deco.
