: ''Epps is a [[human]] in the [[Movie (franchise)|Movie]] [[continuity family]].''

'''Epps''' is a master sargeant in the United States Air Force. He's under the command of [[Lennox]]. He demands the bringing of it.

==Fiction==
===''Transformers'' (2007 film)===
:''Actor:'' [[Tyrese Gibson]]

{{spoiler}}
He keeps a Visa credit card in one of his many back pockets. The one on his left butt cheek, to be specific. He's also one of the guys who first encounter [[Blackout (Movie)|Blackout]], and later fight [[Scorponok (Movie)|Scorponok]]. His "Bring it!" line refers to calling in an air strike on Scorponok. He's not saying it to Scorponok, that's just silly. Then again a giant robotic scorpion that shoots missiles isn't exactly serious business, but you get the idea.

He is notable for being the only minority character in the film to *not* be a ridiculous stereotype, yet he does not appear to have a first name. Way to go, Mr. Bay.

'''Rob Ruffolo''' is a Canadian artist who was [[Dreamwave]]'s Art Director until Dreamwave went bankrupt. Currently, he seems to be a colorist for [[IDW Publishing]].

Although his work on Dreamwave's [[Micromasters]] series was met with a fair amount of criticism, he returned to Transformers with IDW's [[Spotlight: Sixshot]].

Category talk:Toy-only characters

2007-05-12T12:15:56Z

76.20.253.233:

How're we defining this category? 'characters with toys that have never put in a fictional appearance?' The name seems... weird.

There's somethign valid being expressed here, but it needs more crisp outlines, because right now it's coming off liek the suggested Cat 'Things that Do Exist' to compliment 'Things that don't exist.' -[[User:Derik|Derik]] 05:53, 12 May 2007 (UTC)
: Transformers is a property made up of toys, cartoons, comics, and to a lesser extent prose. We have Cartoon-only characters, Comics-only characters, and Prose-only characters. This would appear to be a natural addition. --[[User:Rotty|Rotty]] 07:11, 12 May 2007 (UTC)

:::But the toyline forms the basis of all other fictions. It is dirt common for toy-only characters to appear in cartoons and comics and what-have-you.... in fact it's ''expected''. It is, however, extremely ''rare'' for a character to move from cartoon-only to having a toy. (Arcee did it, 15 years after her introduction. Alspha Trion is finally doing it, 22 years in.)
:::and ultimately, I think non-toy is a misnomer for a category that should be 'characters with no fiction appearances,' and I'm still not sold on the relevance of such a category that, while it woudl touch on a bunch of action master partners and obscures- would also include Solarbot and virtually ''every'' obscure odd-and-end of TF-dom.
:::I guess... if they have a toy, it's almost ''assumed'' they exist in the fictional universes, even if we don't see them. We haven't seen, say [[Brainstorm]] yet in the IDW'verse, but I am 100% confident he exists in that universe. Cartoon-only or comic-only characters are frequently unique to their point-of-origin, but the toyline underlies... everything. -[[User:Derik|Derik]] 07:55, 12 May 2007 (UTC)
:::: "But the toyline forms the basis of all other fictions. It is dirt common for toy-only characters to appear in cartoons and comics and what-have-you...." *facepalm* Once they've appeared in a story, their existence is no longer toy-only by definition. Geez Derik. --[[User:Rotty|Rotty]] 07:58, 12 May 2007 (UTC)
:::::Then basically you're saying this category should be called 'no appearances,' not 'toy-only.' Like [[Spiketail]] which you flagged as 'toy only' when he '''doesn't have a toy'''. This is a bad name for this category.-[[User:Derik|Derik]] 08:02, 12 May 2007 (UTC)
::::::While I have no issues with the category itself, I do agree with Derik that putting unreleased figures in the toy-only category is something of an oxymoron; even if they never appear in comic or cartoon form, they need to have a toy in the first place to be toy-only. - [[User:Dark T Zeratul|Dark T Zeratul]] 11:05, 12 May 2007 (UTC)

: So what about characters who haven't been in any stories, per-se, but were in one of the guidebooks (MTMTE or TFU)? Does that count? If so, pretty much every USG1 character is covered.

Tigatron (BW)

2007-04-27T00:50:24Z

76.20.253.233: MAN QUIT CHANGING THE I MUST KILL YOU BECAUSE GOD TOLD ME TO CAPTION YOU BUTTHEADS.

{{disambig2|the prominent Beast Wars character|the Playskool Go-Bot|Tigertron}}

:''Tigatron is a [[Maximal]] from the [[Beast Wars]] portion of the [[Generation 1]] [[continuity family]]. He was previously designated '''Unit 2'''.''

[[Image:Tigatron1.jpg|right|250px|thumb|I must kill you... because God told me to!]]

Damage to his stasis pod upon crashing to [[Earth]] caused [[Tigatron]] to emerge far more tiger than robot. A loner who is more connected to the Earth than any other [[Beast Wars|Beast Warrior]], he enjoys the planet's natural beauty and is often concerned about the damage that the Transformers' battle is doing to it. Scout, infiltrator, and sometimes programming guru, Tigatron has filled a variety of roles for the Maximals.

''European-market name: '''Tigretron''' ''

==Fiction==
===Animated continuity===
====''Timelines: Dawn of Future's Past''====
[[Image:Tigatrondawn.jpg|left|thumb|250px|He wasn't even supposed to be here today!]]

Tigatron was once known as Unit 2, part of the [[Maximal Command Security Force]] which protected the fragile peace that existed on [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]] in the centuries following the [[Pax Cybertronia]]. One of the Security Force's elite troops, Unit 2 was often put in charge of guarding important Maximal artifacts, a job that often required his amazing prowess at tracking. Despite his strong command of this environment, Unit 2 wondered if his destiny and place was elsewhere.

When the [[Golden Disk]] was stolen by a band of rogue [[Predacon (BW)|Predacons]], Unit 2 responded along with Unit 1, [[Nitrostreak]]. After Nitrostreak was incapacitated, Unit 2 attempted to follow the [[Darksyde]] by commandeering the ''[[Chromia 10]]'', pursuing, along with [[Airazor (BW)|its pilot]]. During the ensuing firefight, their ship was badly damaged. [[Optimus Primal]] had their [[Spark]]s remotely uploaded to blank protoforms in the [[Axalon (BW)|Axalon]]'s cargohold, which saved their lives, but severely damaged their core mainframes. {{storylink|Dawn of Future's Past}}

''(This story is a [[retcon]], as Tigatron was originally treated as a newborn protoform in the ''Beast Wars'' animated series. Instead, here he is revealed to have been a Maximal who existed previously on Cybertron but ended up on the ''Axalon'' in a stasis pod, damaged to the point of not remembering any of his past.)''
{{-}}

====''Beast Wars''====
:''Voice Actor:'' [[Blu Mankuma]] (US), [[Kōichi Tōchika]] (Japan)

Tigatron was born in the far frozen north, at first heavily damaged in his memory circuts and unable to remember friend from foe. In his beast mode, he patiently watched the Predacon and Maximal forces duke it out. When Megatron threatened the white tigers, and Optimus Primal conceded the fight, Tigatron knew his alliance.

He and [[Cheetor]] held a strong sibling friendship. While Cheetor was youthful and eager, Tigatron was confident and wise. Cheetor called him "Big Cat" frequently.

Before Airazor, Tigatron had an organic tiger friend named [[Snowstalker]], who may or may not have been the basis for his altmode. Some fans have speculated that the pair were [[Robot-fleshling romance|more than friends]], as the [[human|dumb stubbies]] say. Sadly, Snowstalker became one of the war's casualties, putting Tigatron in a funk for a short while, until he realized that doing nothing only meant more innocents would die.

After his revival, Tigatron became a background player, sending updates to the [[Axalon]] through communication towers. [[Optimus Primal]] became worried about [[Megatron (BW)|Megatron]]'s plans when he initiated a truce, so he ordered a covert ops. [[Rattrap]] and [[Airazor]] made enough of a distraction to allow Tigatron inside the [[Darksyde]].

Inside, he tampered with the ship's computer systems and found out what got Megatron so worried - The [[Vok]] were coming back, and they weren't happy.

Tigatron and Airazor formed a very powerful relationship during this time. They both felt a strong connection to the prehistoric [[Earth]], and they frequently spent their time outside of the Maximal base in their beast forms instead. Unfortunately, they were abducted by the alien plant, long before Cheetor could ever arrive. The two were not seen again until much later, when the awesomely powerful [[Vok]] emissary [[Tigerhawk]] arrived.

====''Universe: The Wreckers''====
=====''Primeval Dawn=====
[[Image:Primeval Tigatron.jpg|thumb|right|Hello, kitty!]]

Tigatron and Airazor's sparks were sent back to Earth by the [[Vok]] sometime after [[Tigerhawk]]'s destruction. Tigatron's spark took possesion of [[Ravage]]'s former body at the bottom of a lake. Joining Transmetal Airazor and a newly-created [[Primal Prime]], Tigatron battled [[Tarantulas]] and Ravage, who had also managed to escape death.

''('''Note''': The ''Primeval Dawn'' story was never finished, so how Tigatron came to join the [[Wreckers]] (see below) is unknown.)''

=====''The Wreckers''=====
Tigatron, Primal Prime, and others arrived on Cybertron during Megatron's anti-biological reign. Various teams met with the [[Oracle]], which assigned them various tasks. When Optimus Primal objected, saying that with all these soldiers, Megatron could be defeated easily, the Oracle swept him away and cleansed his memory of the recent events. Tigatron vehemently objected to this treatment of his former commander. A set of coordinates was infused into Primal Prime's head by the Oracle. When arriving at an Autobot shuttle, which was to ferry the Wreckers to those coordinates, Tigatron felt that something was amiss. It was then that the Vehicon generals [[Spy Streak]], [[Scavenger_(BM)|Scavenger]], [[Quake]] and [[Blastcharge (BM)|Blastcharge]] attacked. Tigatron used his Nature's Fury attack, utterly destroying Quake. During the ride in the Autobot shuttle, Tigatron meditated, recovering from the battle. Upon arrived at their destination, he once again sensed that danger awaited the Wreckers...

===''Beast Wars Metals'' manga===

[[Image:Blackarach24.jpg|left|thumb|Let's hope Airazor doesn't find out about this.]]

''(Note: although it picks up after the first season, the Beast Wars Metals manga is not in-continuity with the television series.)''

In the Beast Wars Metals manga, Tigatron was interpretted as a samurai warrior and given a character re-design to reflect that angle. At one point, he is forced to do battle with the [[spark|spark]]-less body of his beloved [[Airazor (BW)|Airazor]]. Not wishing to harm her, he willingly let the evil Airazor take the opportunity to decapitate him.

Just as evil Airazor began to strike, the spark of the real Airazor entered his body. In cyberspace, the two embrace eacher other and vow never to be apart again. Their sparks then merge, resulting in the all-powerful [[Tigerhawk]].

==Toys==
===Beast Wars===
[[Image:BWRConcept07.jpg|right|thumb|Tigatron's control art. Note the extensive remolding from Cheetor that never happened.]]
*'''Tigatron''' (Deluxe, 1996/1997)
: ''Japanese ID number:'' '''C-8''', '''VS-8'''

: This mold is a [[redeco]] of the original [[Cheetor (BW)|Cheetor]] in cream, silver, and green, transforming into a fairly generic big cat in shape. His robot-mode parts color layout is notably different from Cheetor's.

: Later, [[Takara]] released him in a more [[Show-accuracy|show-accurate]] bright white fur with the copied-from-Cheetor color layouts. This version also has slight mold tweak to keep the beast head pointed forward. He was available both individually and in a two-pack with the [[Predacon (BW)|Predacon]] [[Blackarachnia]].

*'''Tigatron''' (Transmetal Botcon 2001 exclusive)
:This mold is a redeco of ''[[Beast Wars Metals]]'' [[Ravage (G1)|Ravage]], which is a [[retool]] of transmetal [[Cheetor (BW)|Cheetor]]. He transforms into a mechanical cat with flip-out thruster-wings. His robot-mode arms have spring-loaded flip-out blaster grips, which also have barrel extensions that can be clipped to his legs in beast mode.

===Timelines===
*'''Unit 2 (Tigatron)''' (2006)

: A retooling of the ''[[Cybertron (franchise)|Cybertron]]'' [[Clocker (Cybertron)|Clocker]] toy using Cheetor's new headsculpt, "Unit 2" transforms into an open-topped Cybertronic sports car. his rear engine assembly reveals a pair of spring-loaded flip-out guns when a [[Cyber Planet Key]]/[[Golden Disc Key]] is placed in it. This assembly becomes a hand-held blaster in robot mode., His side-pipes can also be removed and used as hand-weapons. He came with a bio card and a pale-gray Golden Disc Key with a Maximal sigil on it.

: This mold was also used to make [[Swerve (Cybertron)|Swerve]].

==Trivia==
[[Image:Tigertron.gif|right|thumb|125px|C-L-E-M-S-OH CRAP!]]
* An unproduced version of Tigatron shown at Toy Fair in 1996 was cast in orange plastic instead of cream-colored.

*In the Japanese dub of Beast Wars, for the sake of humor, Tigatron was played as a "samurai" ronin. Additionally, since Airazor was made male in the Japanese dub, instead of their relationship being romantic, Airazor was presented as Tigatron's ward whom he looked to as a "brother" (hence the close bond).

Throttlebot

2007-04-25T01:17:45Z

76.20.253.233: /* Headmasters cartoon */

[[Image:ThrottlebotTVMag1.jpg|right|300px|thumb|Drink more Kool-Aid!!!]]

The '''Throttlebots''' are a team of six [[Autobot]]s. Each Throttlebot features a pull-back motor that pushes them along smooth surfaces in both vehicle and robot modes.

The Throttlebots are...

*[[Chase]]
*[[Freeway]]
*[[Bumblebee|Goldbug]]
*[[Rollbar (G1)|Rollbar]]
*[[Searchlight]]
*[[Wide Load (G1)|Wide Load]]

==Fiction==
===Marvel Comics continuity===

===Generation 1 cartoon===

===Headmasters cartoon===
They were really really stupid. Their hubris proved to be their undoing[http://www.poetv.com/video.php?vid=14592].

==Toys==
===Generation 1===
The Throttlebots were first released in 1987, effectively supplanting the [[Mini Vehicle]] assortment. Some versions also came with free [[Decoy]]s; in fact, the Throttlebots are the ''only'' toys that could have the red Decepticon Decoys.

They were later re-released in European markets in the early Nineties as part of the "[[Classics (Euro)|Classics]]" assortment. In this release, everyone but Wide Load was [[retool]]ed to remove their [[rubsign]] indent, the heat-sensitive decal proper replaced with a glossy-paper faction sigil. Wide Load kept his indent, but like the others, had his rubsign replaced.

76.20.253.233:

Clearly needs some polish (as the bars are more or less my thrown-together-in-sixty-seconds sample), but I think we're onto a good start here. It most certainly helps break up the major sections, particularly those that need separating lines WITHIN them (like any large fiction section, and probably the Toys section between lines, why not). And the colored image borders do make a nice addition to the look of the page.<br>
Of course, the coding would have to become an easy-peasy template. <nowiki>{{DecepPic|_______}}, {{AutoToys}}, {{MediaTrivia}}, whatever.
