:''Cliffjumper is an [[Autobot]] from the [[Movie (franchise)|Movie]] [[continuity family]].''

'''Cliffjumper''' shoots first and asks questions much, much later. The only intelligence he's patient enough to gather is "[[Decepticon]]s were here, and now they're dead". Despite his surly and impetuous nature, however, [[Bumblebee (Movie)|Bumblebee]] seems to like him.

==Toys==
===Transformers (2007)===
*'''Cliffjumper''' (Deluxe, 2008)

[[Image:Movie_Cliffjumper_Deluxe.jpg|thumb|left|First is [[Bumblebee|yellow]] now is red next is [[Bug Bite|white]]!]]

:As part of the ''AllSpark Power'' refresh of the ''Movie'' toyline, Cliffjumper is a red and silver [[redeco]] of the Deluxe Camaro Concept [[Bumblebee (Movie)|Bumblebee]] toy, and naturally, transforms into the concept car for the [[wikipedia:Fifth-generation_Chevrolet_Camaro|concept vehicle for the 2009 Chevrolet Camaro]].

: Cliffjumper features two [[Automorph]]ing gimmicks during transformation: ''(a)'' swinging his hood down into robot mode position also moves his arms up and ''(b)'', swinging his feet down will move the rear fenders up and behind his calves, as well as swinging the rear windows to his inner calves in a spring-loaded action.

: Cliffjumper features a superb range of articulation, with ball joints in his shoulders, neck, torso, wrists and upper legs, with ratcheting and swivels making up the remaining joints. Cliffjumper comes with a plasma cannon that he can hold in either hand. For added play value the cannon can Automorph into an energy blade by opening up the halves of the gun barrel and swinging them back. Care should be taken when removing the cannon from Cliffjumper's hands, as excessive force can damage the wrist ball joint socket.

: Contrary to popular opinion, the red pieces on the back of Cliffjumper's feet are ''not'' supposed to be heel spurs, and they have ''not'' been mis-assembled. They are supposed to fold up to emulate the detail found on the CGI design for Bumblebee.

*'''Cliffjumper''' (Cyber Slammer, 2007)

[[Image:Movie_CyberSlammers_Cliffjumper.jpg|thumb|right|150px|This is Red Turbo Ranger, I'm rollin' out!]]

: Part of the fourth wave of [[Cyber Slammers]] toys, Cliffjumper is (natch) a redeco of the concept-Camaro Cyber Slammer Bumblebee. He has motorized action: when you push down on the car, it zooms forward and slowly pops into robot mode!

{{-}}

*'''Cliffjumper Vs Recon Barricade''' (Legends multi-pack, 2007)

[[Image:Movie_Legends_CliffjumperBarricade_toys.jpg|thumb|left|200px|Where's my gun?]]

: Released as part of the ''AllSpark Battles'' refresh of the ''Movie'' toyline, Legends class Cliffjumper is once again a red and silver Bumblebee repaint. However, being a straight redeco, the alt mode remains a classic Camaro, instead of a Concept like the Deluxe figure is. He comes packed with a Legends class [[Barricade (Movie)|Recon Barricade]], itself a redeco of the previously-released Legends class Barricade.

{{-}}

*'''Cliffjumper''' (Legends, 2008)

: An individually packaged release of the Legends class toy, released within Europe.

==Merchandise==
*'''Cliffjumper''' (3D Battle-Card, 2007)
:''Card number'': '''2'''

[[Image:3DCard-Cliffjumper.jpg|thumb|right|200px|He'd have jumped that cliff if he hadn't swerved.]]

: Cliffjumper is a 31-point "Common" piece in the [[3D Battle-Card Game]]. Constructed of punch-out pieces from randomly-packed plastic cards (two full robots per pack), he can be assembled into his car mode (model undetermined), or into a rather stumpy robot mode. One of his blaster-weapons is held in his right hand, the other can mount on either shoulder.

: He uses the same construction as the [[Jazz (Movie)|Jazz]] and [[Smokescreen (Movie)|Smokescreen]] cards. This style is similar to the one used by [[Barricade (Movie)|Barricade]], [[Earth]]-mode [[Bumblebee (Movie)|Bumblebee]], and [[Swerve (Movie)|Swerve]].

{{-}}

*'''Cliffjumper and Optimus Prime''' (Robot Heroes, 2007)

[[Image:Movie_RobotHeroes_BestBuy_Cliffjumper_OptimusPrime.jpg|thumb|left|200px|Dance red boy, DANCE]]

: [[Robot Heroes]] Cliffjumper is a redeco of the first-wave Bumblebee figurine; a non-transforming super-cute rendition of the character. He is [[exclusive]] to the Best Buy release of the [[Transformers (2007)|movie DVD release]], along with a battle-damaged version of Robot Heroes [[Optimus Prime (Movie)|Optimus Prime]].

{{-}}

==Trivia==
[[Image:MovieCGCliffjumper.jpg|thumb|250px|One bee, two bee, red bee, [[Glyph|blue bee]]]]

* An early test [[Industrial Light & Magic|ILM]] animatic (seen in the Circuit City exclusive content web site) of Bumblebee's model shows 'Bee facing off against a red doppelganger. Hmmmm.

* Amusingly enough, Cliffjumper's 3D card robot mode is clearly designed after ''[[Alternators]]'' [[Swerve (G1)|Swerve]], though with a few movie-aesthetic concessions thrown in, mostly in the look of the feet. It's ''exceedingly'' likely the names of the two cards got mixed up, as card-game-[[Swerve (Movie)|Swerve]] bears more than a passing resemblance to Bumblebee (and by extension ''every other version'' of movie Cliffjumper), and Cliffjumper sure seems to be relegated to being a Bumblebee redeco since, well, everything after that [[Cliffjumper (G1)|first toy]].

* With three toys, a Robot Hero, and a Battle-Card, Cliffjumper has '''by far''' the most merchandise for a ''Transformers'' movie character not actually appearing IN the film.

* This cliffjumper is quite obviously a throwback to an origonal G1 robot of the same name, who was also a recolor and minor resculpting of G1 Bumblebee. Of course if you don't know that by now, what the hell are you doing here?

Barricade (Movie)

2008-03-29T19:05:37Z

81.103.48.128: /* Legends Class toys */

{{disambig3|Barricade}}

:''Barricade is a [[Decepticon]] in the [[Movie (franchise)|Movie]] [[continuity family]]. He is also known as '''N.B.E. 04'''.''

[[Image:MovieBarricade_render1.jpg|right|thumb|300px|"I'm ''always'' the Bad Cop. And don't bother asking for the [[Prowl (G1)|good cop]]. I killed him."]]

'''Barricade''' is apparently a complicated robot. He's considered "fractious" even by Decepticon standards, yet is willing to give [[Starscream (Movie)|Starscream]] the benefit of the doubt and follow where he leads, at least for the time being. Though not totally dedicated to the service of the Decepticons' current leader, he is much more cautious and reserved about expressing mutinous dissent than say [[Blackout (Movie)|''most'']]. He believes that Starscream is vital in their search for [[Megatron (Movie)|Megatron]] and the [[All Spark]]. In many ways this makes him Starscream's closest ally in the naturally combative Decepticon ranks. Then again, it's been said that he likes to trick people into trusting him, just so he can see their reactions when they find out just how much of a bad idea it was.

:''Working name'': '''Brawl'''
:''Chinese name (Taiwan):'' '''Pan-guan''' ("Treacherous official")

==Fiction==
===''Ghosts of Yesterday'' prequel novel===
Barricade acts as pilot and chief science officer for the ''[[Nemesis (Movie)|Nemesis]]''. Through this he apparently possesses an impressive "mastery of physics", being very intelligent. He claims to have chaffed under Starscream's leadership, but is willing to tolerate him for now. Barricade spent most of his time rubbing everyone the wrong way and loving every minute of it. Optimus Prime once said that Barricade could be as dangerous as [[Starscream]].

===''Prime Directives'' prequel comic===

[[Image:Movie_Barricade_IDWprequel_nowitnesses.jpg|left|thumb|200px|Christine... is that you?]]

The Decepticon infiltration unit under the command of Starscream arrived on [[Earth]] in the year 2003. Barricade scanned a Saleen S281 police car, then destroyed the original human vehicle to cover his tracks, as did his fellow Decepticons when choosing their new forms. It is uncertain how he managed to scan what appears to be a 2006 model in 2003.

Later, Barricade pursues [[Bumblebee (Movie)|Bumblebee]] outside of Denver, Colorado as the Autobot is working on a new lead on the [[Witwicky]]s. {{Storylink|Prime Directives, Part 4}}

===''Transformers'' Movie Prequel (Target)===
Barricade was one of the Decepticons under the command of Starscream at at battle outside of [[Tyger Pax]]. As they were mopping up the last remnants of Autobot resistance, Barricade amused himself by playing with the decapitated head of a fallen Autobot. When he saw the All Spark jettisoned into space, Barricade realized that Cybertron would soon die. Bonecrusher said to let it die, and he could join it. Barricade did not bring up the discussion again.

After leaving [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]] in pursuit of Megatron and the All Spark, the Decepticons landed in the Earth nation-state of Afghanistan. During their attack on a nearby [[United States Military|US Military]] installation, Barricade used a facade of friendliness to trick nearby human soldiers into lowering their guard, whereupon he slaughtered them at point-blank range. Later, he was almost hit by a localized EMP weapon from a human, but it instead hit his comrade [[Wreckage (Movie)|Wreckage]]. {{storylink|Transformers Movie Prequel (Target) Volume 2}}

{{Note|Barricade's arrival on Earth in Afghanistan conflicts with IDW's own ''Prime Directives'' prequel comic, which implies he actually landed somewhere in North America, and it remains unexplained how the land-based Decepticons would later appear in America, given Blackout immediately leaves to attack [[SOCCENT Forward Operations Base|SOCCENT Qatar]] in this comic.}}

===Transformers The Game (console)===
:''Voice actor'': [[Keith David]]

====Autobot campaign====
Barricade was sent to Tranquility to hunt down Sam Witwicky and the glasses that held the location of the All Spark. He attempted to capture Sam and Mikaela outside their high school, but Bumblebee stepped in. The humans fled for the nearby baseball field with Barricade in pursuit, but Bumblebee beat him to them, protecting them while they ran away again. He followed them to the power plant, but was once again foiled by Bumblebee and sent packing.

Later, in [[Mission City]], Barricade made one last grab for the AllSpark after [[Starscream (Movie)|Starscream]], [[Blackout (Movie)|Blackout]] and [[Brawl (Movie)|Brawl]] had each fallen to the Autobots. However, he was once again intercepted by Bumblebee, and finally defeated for good.

====Decepticon campaign====
Upon reaching Tranquility and choosing his alternate mode, Barricade attempted some recon, but encountered a squad of Autobot drones, a battle which spilled out to the local baseball field. Shortly afterwards, he was informed by Starscream that [[Frenzy (Movie)|Frenzy]] had information they needed, but the diminutive Decepticon had been captured by [[Sector Seven]] agents. Barricade tracked them to the power plant, then hounded the agents across town, wrecking every building in his path until Frenzy was recovered.

Finally on the trail of Sam, he was stopped cold by Sam's protector Bumblebee. Barricade got the upper hand, but the Autobot led him on a chase that ended in [[Bay's Demolition]] lot, and an ambush courtesy of a lot of Autobot drones. Barricade overcame the odds, and hunted down Bumblebee once more, finally besting the Autobot and taking the glasses from Sam.

When the Decepticons converged on Mission City, Barricade was tasked in taking out the Autobot [[Jazz (Movie)|Jazz]]. He later stood in Megatron's presence after the AllSpark had been recovered and [[Megatron (Movie)|Megatron]] ordered the Earth to be destroyed before they left it on their way to conquering all of known space.

===''Transformers The Game'' (Nintendo DS)===

:''Voice actor:'' [[Keith David]]

====''Autobots''====
When Bumblebee went to investigate the source of an image found on the internet, he found Barricade waiting for him. Barricade blew up a nearby car and took off, sending out messages on the police radio that Bumblebee was responsible. After failing to lose Bumblebee in spite of all of Tranquility's police force being after him, he engaged him in combat. Unable to defeat Bumblebee, he hastily retreated. Later on, he encountered Bumblebee and Optimus Prime as the two were leaving Hoover Dam. With a large helicopter Decepticon at his side, he demanded the Allspark from Prime, not even caring of the consequences. He was defeated, but revealed to Prime he was merely a distraction while other Decepticons freed Megatron from his icy prison.

====''Decepticons''====

When the [[Create-A-Bot (Decepticon)|Decepticon Create-A-Bot]] arrived on Earth, his mentor, Starscream, directed him to rendezvous with Barricade, already active on the planet. Barricade was not enamored with the idea of a partner, feeling that the Create-A-Bot would only slow him down, but after putting the rookie through his paces, he permitted him to join him on his mission in the town of [[Tranquility]]. Barricade revealed to the Create-A-Bot what Starscream had not - that the signal which had brought the Decepticons to Earth had come from Megatron himself. The rookie dismissed Megatron as a relic, and was struck by Barricade for the insult. With some help from the rookie, Barricade discovered that the Autobot Bumblebee was already on Megatron's trail; Barricade pursued Bumblebee, defeated him in battle on the outskirts of Tranquility, and acquired the data he had gathered.

Now aware that the human military organization [[Sector 7]] was holding Megatron, Barricade arranged for [[Blackout (Movie)|Blackout]] to the Create-A-Bot to a [[Qatar]] military base, where they and [[Brawl (Movie)|Brawl]] hacked Sector 7's databanks. The file they obtained was brought back to Barricade in Tranquility for deciphering, and revealed that Megatron was being held by Sector 7 in the [[Hoover Dam]]. The Create-A-Bot suggesting relaying this to Starscream, but Barricade loudly refuted the idea, happy that the impending resurrection of Megatron would mean that he would no longer have to serve under a cowardly, back-stabbing bureaucrat like Starscream. Swayed by Barricade's words, the rookie revealed a fact that Starscream had told only him - that the All Spark was also present on Earth. Shocked by the revelation, Barricade realized that Starscream had been scheming to acquire the All Spark for himself, to ensure that not even Megatron could remove him from power. With the rookie now turned from Starscream and on his side, Barricade was able to liberate Megatron from Sector 7, and the Decepticons pursued the Autobots, now in possession of the All Spark, back to Tranquility. During the battle, Starscream finally claimed the All Spark from Bumblebee, and Barricade stood against him, intent on bringing him in for treason. Alas, the All Spark-powered Starscream destroyed Barricade, but with in death, Barricade proved to the Create-A-Bot what it truly meant to be a Decepticon.

===''Transformers'' (2007 film)===
:''Voice actor:'' [[Jess Harnell]] (English), [[Katsuhiro Kitagawa]] (Japan), [[Oliver Siebeck]] (German)

[[Image:BarricadeVsSam.jpg|right|thumb|200px|Barricade negotiates an alternative to PayPal.]]

After being active on [[Earth]] for some time, Barricade arrived to pick up [[Frenzy (Movie)|Frenzy]] after the smaller Decepticon's attempt to hack into and sabotage the United States military network on [[Air Force One]]. Using data Frenzy had acquired, the two learned of [[Sector Seven]], "Project Iceman", and [[Archibald Witwicky|Witwicky man]], the discoverer of the entombed [[Megatron (Movie)|Megatron]]. The duo were able to use the internet to learn of both Witwicky man's descendants, [[Sam Witwicky|ladiesman217]], and a pair of glasses that Megatron marked with the location of the long-lost [[All Spark]]. Frenzy declared that they needed to find ladiesman217, and Barricade moved out.

[[Image:Movie_Barricade_defeat.jpg|thumb|left|200px|He got better.]]

Later, Barricade confronted ladiesman217 regarding his recent eBay auctions while the human was fleeing Bumblebee, whom the human mistakenly believed was out to harm him. Ladiesman217 fell for Barricade's ruse, and requested the "officer's" help, only for Barricade to transform before him. As ladiesman217 fled, Barricade knocked him onto the hood of an abandoned car, then violently demand information on eBay item 21153. Ladiesman217 and his [[Mikaela Banes|female friend]], who had been drawn into the encounter, managed to escape him when Bumblebee convinced the boy to trust him, and Barricade pursued both the Autobot and two humans to a junkyard. Activating his mace/rotating blade/thinamajig, Barricade engaged Bumblebee in battle, and dispatched Frenzy to chase down the humans. However, his battle with Bumblebee ended with Barricade heavily damaged. Considering the fact that Frenzy was decapitated, he got off lucky.

[[Image:Decepticons highway.JPG|thumb|right|200px|Nope, nothing suspicious about this.]]

Evidently, though, he recovered, and was back to working order when Frenzy (who had survived and infiltrated Sector Seven) transmitted both Megatron and the All Spark's location to his fellow Decepticons. When the humans fled with the All Spark, Barricade joined in the pursuit along with [[Brawl (Movie)|Devastator]] and [[Bonecrusher (Movie)|Bonecrusher]]. Devastator soon broke off, while Barricade and Bonecrusher hit the freeway, making contact with the Autobot/human convoy. Barricade attempted to clear some room for the two Decepticons by activating his sirens; Bonecrusher simply rammed everything in his way. Ladiesman217 recognized Barricade, and warned that they were in danger. [[Optimus Prime (Movie)|Optimus Prime]], [[Ironhide (Movie)|Ironhide]], and [[Ratchet (Movie)|Ratchet]] aligned to block their access to Bumblebee, who contained the humans and the All Spark.

Bonecrusher went on the offensive, and Barricade's final fate was left unclear. {{Storylink|Transformers (2007)}}

====Barricade's fate====
[[Image:Movie_Barricade_finalappearance.jpg|left|thumb|200px|Barricade pulls everyone over for ''driving on the wrong side of the road''.]]

Barricade's disappearance from the film is puzzling. It appears he was originally meant to be destroyed, as both the novel and comic adaptations of the movie depict his destruction by [[Optimus Prime (Movie)|Optimus Prime]], who had both destroyed Bonecrusher and was delayed in joining the humans and fellow Autobots. (Alternatively the children's chapter book adaption of the film ''[[The Transformers Quest for the Allspark]]'' describes Barricade as being destroyed by the US military.) Regardless, in the movie proper Barricade simply does not appear again after Bonecrusher transforms. Since his remains are not seen among the Decepticon parts being buried at sea, it is possible he survived.

[[Image:Barricade-comicsadaptation-death.jpg|thumb|right|F*** tha poh-leece!]]

Writers [[Roberto Orci]] and [[Alex Kurtzman]] have stated in an interview that Barricade's disappearance from the remainder of the film is a "thread for Movie 2".<ref>[http://boards.transformersmovie.com/showpost.php?p=384946&postcount=33 Roberto Orci on Barricade's fate in the movie, at the official movie boards]</ref> However, recents photos have surfaced on multiple websites, showing photos of several Barricade police cars, apparently being driven around California.

Barricade was killed in the [[Mission City]] battle and then resurrected as a zombie for a few minutes by Starscream. {{Storylink|Transformers Comic issue 7}}

==Toys==
===Transformers (2007)===
====Legends Class toys====
* '''Barricade''' (Legends Class, 2007)
:''Japanese name:'' '''EZ Collection Barricade'''

[[Image:LegendsBarricade.jpg|left|thumb|125px|Yes, he ''is'' movie-accurate.]]

: A much smaller version of the character, [[Legends of Cybertron|Legends]] Barricade features limited articulation and detail. In what could only be defined as an anomaly of physics, compared to the other Movie Legends, Barricade is quite close in appearance and transformation to the larger deluxe figure. Legends Barricade's instructions also overlook the fact that his grill can flip down to fill out his torso and raise his chest higher.

{{-}}

*'''Battle for the Allspark''' (Toys'R'Us exclusive multi-pack, 2007)

[[Image:Movie_Allspark_Legends_pack.jpg|thumb|right|120px|Round up the usual suspects.]]

: A Toys'R'Us exclusive, this six-pack of Legends class figures contains unmodified toys of [[Optimus Prime (Movie)|Optimus Prime]], [[Jazz (Movie)|Jazz]], [[Bumblebee (Movie)|Bumblebee]], [[Megatron (Movie)|Megatron]], [[Starscream (Movie)|Starscream]] and Barricade.

*'''Cliffjumper vs. Recon Barricade''' (Legends Allspark Battles multi-pack, 2007)

[[Image:Movie_Legends_CliffjumperBarricade_toys.jpg|thumb|left|200px|Barricade existed in G1 after all.]]

: Released as part of the ''AllSpark Battles'' refresh of the ''Movie'' toyline, Legends class Recon Barricade is a redeco of the the regular Legends class Barricade in a paint scheme based upon the Deluxe class Recon Barricade. Yes. He comes packed with Legends class [[Cliffjumper (Movie)|Cliffjumper]], itself a repaint of Legends class Bumblebee.

*'''Recon Barricade''' (Legends, 2008)

: An individually packaged release of the Legends class toy, released within Europe.
{{-}}

====Deluxe Class toys====

* '''Barricade''' (Deluxe Class, 2007)
:''Japanese ID Number:'' '''MD-02'''

[[Image:Movie_DeluxeBarricade_toy.jpg|right|thumb|250px|The secret love child of [[Blackjack]] and [[Stakeout]].]]

:Barricade transforms into an accurate [[wikipedia:Saleen|Saleen S281 Ford Mustang Custom Police Pursuit Cruiser]]. As with [[Bumblebee (Movie)|MOST]] deluxe-class cars in the ''Movie'' line, he features clear windows for his windshield and doors, but oddly his rear window is opaque black plastic. Stored inside the engine bay, behind the car's ram bar is a mini-figure [[Frenzy (Movie)|Frenzy]] disguised as Barricade's grill. We say mini, but Frenzy would be about six feet tall, scale wise.

: In robot mode, Barricade quite faithfully reproduces the CGI design, though his chest cannot deform to the same extent. He features a reasonable amount of articulation with ball joints for his shoulders and upper legs, ratcheting and swivels for his elbows and double-jointed knees (although the knees make it difficult to properly align the upper and lower portions of his legs). Barricade has no neck joint as the two car hood halves slot into place between the bottom of the head and the plate on which it sits. Additionally, his pelvis is extremely difficult (if not impossible) to clip into the underside of his torso. Barricade does not have any [[Automorph]]ing [[gimmick]] to speak of; in its place is a spring-loaded extending "punching" attack on his left arm.

: As with almost all Transformers toys issued over the last few years, a few of his transformation quirks are undocumented; in robot mode front wheel panels on his shoulders are ball-jointed, allowing one to position them in a manner similar to what is seen in the movie renders. Additionally, the sections that become his claws (apart from the thumb hinge) can swing up slightly to make themselves more pronounced, and spikes on the top of his feet can be swung up.

*'''Bumblebee vs. Barricade: First Encounter''' (Wal*Mart exclusive multi-pack, 2007)

[[Image:Bumblebee_Barricade_deluxeboxset.jpg|left|thumb|130px|Mullethead vs. Cop]]

: This Wal*Mart exclusive battle pack contains the deluxe-class Barricade and the 1974 Camaro deluxe-class [[Bumblebee (Movie)|Bumblebee]] figures, based upon their confrontation as seen in the movie. The box features a diorama-style background from a movie scene, but toys themselves are unchanged from their original carded releases.

{{-}}

*'''Recon Barricade''' (Deluxe, 2007)

[[Image:ReconBarricade.jpg|right|thumb|155px|Barricade escaped by disgusing himself as [[Prowl (Energon)|Energon Prowl]].]]

: A [[redeco]] of the normal Deluxe Barricade toy, this time in a "local security" blue and gray pattern. All the the [[gimmick]]s remain the same, including his little pal [[Frenzy (Movie)|Frenzy]], who is now colored more [[FIBRIR|G1-accurate]].

{{-}}

*'''First Encounter''' (Screen Battles, 2007)
:''Japanese ID number:'' '''SB-01'''

[[Image:Movie_ScreenBattles_FirstEncounter.jpg|thumb|left|250px|Which one of these is different from the others? Go ahead, guess!]]

: This Screen Battles pack features a largely unchanged Deluxe class Barricade figure. The only real difference is the Frenzy mini-figure, which is now cast entirely in black plastic, sports ''no'' paint applications and is supposed to be stuck permanently inside Barricade's chest thanks to a new, additional piece of plastic (as a matter of fact, the Frenzy figure is also neither advertised on the packaging nor depicted in the instructions).

:This only applies to the Hasbro version, however; TakaraTomy's Japanese release of the pack features a Barricade that is identical to the single pack version, including an easily removable Frenzy figurine cast in grey plastic with painted red eyes.

:The pack also comes with non-posable figurines of Sam Witwicky in a running pose, Frenzy menacing Sam and Mikaela Banes holding the power saw she uses to attack Frenzy. The set is packaged in a special window box with a diorama depicting the battle between Barricade and Bumblebee.

{{-}}

*'''Barricade''' (Deluxe Class "Premium Series", 2008)

: This version of Deluxe Barricade features a slightly more [[show-accuracy|movie-accurate]] deco, with additional "911" markings that were missing on earlier releases. However, confusingly his windows have a frosted paint deco applied to them for no apparent reason, other than to make the toy look 'different'.

:Unlike some earlier "Premium Series" toys, Barricade will be available at general retail.

====Fast Action Battlers====

* '''Blade Shield Barricade''' (Fast Action Battler, 2007)
: A simplified version of the Deluxe class Barricade, with a shield made out of blades. How awsome is that?
[[Image:FABBarricade.jpg|right|thumb|125px|Who you callin' ugh-lee?]]

{{-}}

====Cyber Slammers====

* '''Barricade''' (Cyber Slammers, 2007)

[[Image:Barricade-CS.jpg|left|thumb|125px|Awwwwwww. Bawwicade's so cute he'll kill us all!]]

:Cyber Slammers Barricade is an ''amazingly cute'' Saleen S281 police car that transforms into an amazingly cute treacherous Decepticon pretending to be a cop. 'Slam' his robot mode down into car mode and he rolls along, slowly transforming back up into robot mode. Like most Cyber Slammers, Barricade manages to cram most of his vehicle mode's major details into a compact, super-deformed version of that mode.

{{-}}

*'''Patrol Barricade''' (Cyber Slammers, 2008)

[[Image:Movie_CyberSlammers_PatrolBarricade.jpg|thumb|right|150px|Cute evil, now in Blue!]]

: This adorable, pudgy version of Barricade's car mode zips forward with a little motor. The robot mode Patrol Barricade pops up after a little while, rolling along. So cute! The deco is based upon Recon Barricade, though obviously simplified.

{{-}}

====Robot Replicas====

* '''Barricade''' (Robot Replica, 2007)

[[Image:Movie_RobotReplica_Barricade.jpg|left|thumb|150px|I came to mow your lawn mam]]

: A non-transforming action figure, [[Robot Replicas]] Barricade hews much closer to the CGI model of the character (albeit wrong paint job). With joints similar to the [[Revoltech]] series, he is also more posable than his transforming counterpart, plus features replacement arms that feature his "blender-blade tires" alternate hands briefly seen in the movie.

{{-}}

====Micro IR Transformers Cars====
* '''Barricade''' (2007)

[[Image:Movie_Barricade_MicroIR.jpg|thumb|right|120px|Weirdest police gun I've ever seen!]]

: Made under license by [[Radio Shack]]. Three-function infrared remote, in Barricade's signature colors, gives you control of the car with forward and reverse turn movement. More than just a vehicle styled after the Movie character, the car also transforms to robot mode. The top of the gun-shaped IR remote's barrel serves as a display stand.

There is a full replica of the Sector Seven base which contains a giant discussion room where Michael Bay held a question board in Second Life. This room contains a giant frozen Megatron replica and free avatars of both Bumblebee and Barricade. Both freebees are non-transforming. However, some sellers have created a transforming version.

{{-}}

==Trivia==
*[[Prowl (G1)|Prowl]] was originally part of the Autobot line up for the movie, but was removed, as the writers loved the perverse idea of Barricade becoming a police car. This represents quite a step within any/all Transformers continuities, as a Decepticon has never before taken on a form (most) humans could so easily "trust", in a sense. Sorry, Prowl, better luck [[Transformers 2|next time]].

* The [http://www.saleen.com/transformers.htm promotional Saleen S281 cars] that appeared at events and premieres featured the slogan "Power in the hands of a few" rather than the "To punish and enslave" motto, as well as Saleen decals rather than the Decepticon decals seen in the movie. Hmmm...

* The [[IDW]] ''[[Prime Directives]]'' Prequel ''seems'' to contradict the very existence of his alternate mode, since the Decepticons were depicted as having come to Earth in 2003, yet his alternate mode is a 2006 model car. However, a little-known fact is that the Mustang design that would eventually be the 2006 model debuted sometime in 2003, with police car modifications showing up in car shows not long after. It could very well be that, similar to when/how Jazz scanned a Solstice in a dealership late at night, Barricade scanned a Police Mustang in one such car show display after-hours, explaining why there were "no witnesses" after he assumed this form ''and'' why his police deco has no state or city markings/I.D.

* Early concept art for Barricade suggests that he was originally going to transform into a white and black Crown Victoria (somewhat akin to Prowl's original G1 color scheme). Hasbro, continuing to capitalize on unused concepts/ideas, had Recon Barricade's redeco vaguely mirror the Vic's deco.

* Additionally, Recon Barricade's license plate reads "SAGE2764", which was the message board member name used by [[Joe Kyde]] to disseminate [http://tformers.com/Unknown-Megatron-Drawing-Possible-Movie-Design/6030/news.html hoax information] for a thesis project.

Bonecrusher (Movie)

{{Template:Disambig3|Bonecrusher}}

:''Bonecrusher is a [[Decepticon]] from the [[Movie (franchise)|Movie]] [[continuity family]].''

[[Image:MovieBonecrusher.jpg|right|thumb|300px|''He was a sk8ter boi, she said see ya later boy.'']]

'''Bonecrusher''' is a Transformer that can be described with one word: Hate. While other Decepticons get by on greed, ambition, or just their fondness for dispensing chaos, Bonecrusher is fueled by sheer, unrelenting hate. He hates everyone and everything, be they Autobot, Decepticon, or anything in-between{{m-}}he even hates ''himself'', revolted by his misshapen, hunchbacked robot mode, which he considers a reflection of all the ugliness and malice inside himself. This full force of this vicious cycle of hatred finds release in explosive frenzied bursts of psychotic brutality, as Bonecrusher takes out the full force of his bitterness and self-loathing on anyone who looks at him sideways. He hates that. He also hates Megatron, but would hate being terminated by the Decepticon leader more, so, he sticks around.

On [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]], Bonecrusher was actually quite a skilled tactician{{m-}}dedicated to the art of war, a fast thinker who could plough into battle while others were still mapping out strategy, and, most importantly in [[Megatron (Movie)|Megatron]]'s eyes, a masterfully ''dirty'' fighter. However, Bonecrusher's skills left him consigned to a supervisory position and kept him off the battlefield, which, of course, he hated. Naturally, this only helped to increase his already epic levels of frustration and misery at his lot in life, until he became what he is today. So intensely pent-up that he is willing to take on an opponent of any size (The bigger the better!), Bonecrusher wouldn't hesitate to confront [[Optimus Prime (Movie)|Optimus Prime]] head on, if he could.

He transforms into a Buffalo mine-clearing vehicle used by the military. It is made exclusively in South Carolina and the drivers routinely use it to drive to the local Taco Bell/Pizza Hut. He hates drivers, the mine clearing vehicle, the drive-thrus, and South Carolina. He loves tacos, however.

:''Hungarian name'': '''Csonttörő'''

== Fiction ==
===''Ghosts of Yesterday''===

Bonecrusher was aboard the crew of the ''[[Nemesis (Movie)|Nemesis]]'', led by [[Starscream (Movie)|Starscream]], who were searching for Megatron, who was lost thousands of years ago, along with the [[All Spark]]. He hated the ''Nemesis'', but would hate trying to walk home more. He also hated the All Spark, but Megatron wanted it, so he decided not to complain. Finally, he hated Starscream, but all the other Decepticons do as well, making it something he has in common with his fellow Decepticons.

When Starscream left to go destroy [[Ghost 1|an alien vessel]], Bonecrusher eagerly joined [[Blackout (Movie)|Blackout]]'s plan to attack the ''[[Ark (Movie)|Ark]]'' against Starscream's orders, as there was nothing else to attack. Bypassing [[Optimus Prime (Movie)|Optimus Prime]], he headed straight for the ''Ark''. However, [[Jazz (Movie)|Jazz]] and [[Ironhide (Movie)|Ironhide]] were waiting, and unleashed hell upon him. He hated that. When Blackout ordered a withdrawal, Bonecrusher reluctantly complied. He hates retreating.

Shortly afterwards, Barricade picked Bonecrusher to lead another assault on the ''Ark''. His only response to the command was a growl, but he dislikes being in charge, as his only strategy in combat is to violently charge the enemy and rip them apart with his bare hands. Everyone else uses their stupid [[weapon|gun]]s, and Bonecrusher is a terrible shot. After Blackout had his [[exhaust port]] handed to him for challenging Starscream, Bonecrusher had to drag him back to the ''Nemesis''. Bonecrusher would have preferred to leave him to rot. During the subsequent fight, Bonecrusher has to fight Ironhide, and managed to dent his armor. However, Bonecrusher does demand answers from Starscream when Blackout demands information on why the Decepticon leader wanted to destroy the alien ship, cause damn it, even Bonecrusher needs reasons to kill (well, not really, he was just getting fed up with Starscream). Bonecrusher was forced to drag Starscream back to the ''Nemesis'' when he was injured by the alien ship. He hates being a courier. {{Storylink|Transformers: Ghosts of Yesterday}}

===Titan Magazines===

Bonecrusher is known and feared by Autobots for never giving up. He almost killed [[Jazz (Movie)|Jazz]] once and pursued him & his comrade [[Clocker (Movie)|Clocker]] for ages - because Bonecrusher hates nice-looking shiny robots (or nice-looking ''anythings'') and deliberately destroys them. As he says, "I figure, why should they look so nice... when I look like ''this!''", showing he hates even himself. Clocker covered Jazz's retreat and tried to fight Bonecrusher, who hated that and killed him. {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 6}}

===''Transformers'' Movie Prequel (Target)===

[[Image:Movie_BarricadeBonecrusher_protoforms.jpg|thumb|left|Bonecrusher's pre-[[Earth]] body. Bonecrusher hates retro-designs.]]

Bonecrusher was a member of Starscream's unit that was keeping [[Optimus Prime (Movie)|Optimus Prime]]'s reinforcements out of [[Tyger Pax]]. When [[Brawl (Movie)|Brawl]] arrived with news of Megatron and the All Spark, Bonecrusher insisted that they move on as they had already killed all the Autobots in the area. He then demanded that Brawl take them to Megatron or he would kill them all. Witnessing the launch of the All Spark, [[Barricade (Movie)|Barricade]] commented that [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]] would die, but Bonecrusher replied that they should let it die, and that Barricade should join it in death. After Starscream and Blackout settled their differences, the group headed after Megatron.

The Decepticons made planetfall on [[Earth]] in Afghanistan, quickly attracting the attention of a nearby [[United States Military|US military]] base, which sent out an armoured personnel carrier to investigate. Bonecrusher declared his satisfaction in finally having something to kill, but this chance was snatched away when [[Wreckage (Movie)|Wreckage]] scanned the vehicle and destroyed it. He hated when that happened. Hitting the US airbase, Bonecrusher easily killed the humans before scanning a Buffalo mine-clearance vehicle. Bonecrusher hated the notion of "disguise", but hated standing out more. After scanning, he complained that there weren't enough lifeforms to kill. {{Storylink|Transformers Movie Prequel (Target) Volume 2}}

{{note|In the panel where the Decepticons react to the arrival of the armoured personnel carrier, it is likely that Bonecrusher's speech bubble regarding the military base was actually meant for Wreckage (as the latter was the one who tracked the base location), and that Brawl was incorrectly given Bonecrusher's own speech bubble about killing things. On the last page, Bonecrusher's speech bubble asking Starscream if it was going to be easy is clearly meant for Barricade, as that is who Starscream responds to. Bonecrusher ''hates'' ventriloquism.}}

===''Transformers The Game''===
:''Voice actor:'' [[Daniel Riordan]]

{{note|Bonecrusher only appears in the Decepticon campaign of the game, and as a non-playable character t'boot on the console. It's just as well, though. He would've hated being playable.}}

While hiding in a military base, Bonecrusher came under attack by the humans twice, and required assistance from Starscream to escape. He hates needing help from people, especially from people he hates.

He is playable on PSP multi.

===''Transformers'' (2007) film===
:''Voice actor:'' [[Jimmie Wood]] (English)

[[Image:Movie_Bonecrusher_carflip.jpg|left|thumb|He hates the sundown slowdown.]]

Bonecrusher was hiding out in the motor pool of a military base when he received a communique from Starscream ordering the Decepticons to to mobilize and converge on the location of the All Spark. Leaving the base, he reported that he was "rolling" out. Sometime after this, he rendezvoused with [[Barricade (Movie)|Barricade]] and [[Brawl (Movie)|Devastator]], and the three Decepticons headed off together to intercept the Autobots and their human allies who had the All Spark in their possession.

[[Image:Movie_Bonecrusher_face.jpg|thumb|right|Bonecrusher, like most celebs, hates the paparazzi. He also hates closeups.]]

Devastator wandered off somewhere, so Bonecrusher and Barricade continued their pursuit on the freeway. Barricade activated his sirens to clear the traffic and allow them more maneuvering room. Unsatisfied with Barricade's less conspicuous method, and since he hated rush-hour traffic, Bonecrusher used his mine-scoop to flip cars out of his way (He kinda liked that). Surprisingly, the Autobots didn't find this out of the ordinary, and only reacted when [[Sam Witwicky|ladiesman217]] recognized Barricade and warned the Autobots. [[Optimus Prime (Movie)|Optimus Prime]], [[Ironhide (Movie)|Ironhide]], and [[ratchet (Movie)|Ratchet]] aligned to block the Decepticons from [[Bumblebee (Movie)|Bumblebee]], who had the All Spark and the fleshlings.

[[Image:Big_fight.jpg|left|thumb|Bonecrusher loves to watch things burn. Just not himself.]]
After Barricade pulled over to the side of the road, Bonecrusher transformed while still moving and skated towards the Autobots. Optimus Prime transformed and slid into position to block his path. Seeing the Autobot he really hated (and that's saying a lot), Bonecrusher smashed through a bus (it irked him), and tackled Optimus Prime, pushing him off an overpass tumbling and falling off the edge, dragging the Autobot leader down with him.

[[Image:Movie_Bonecrusher_dies.jpg|thumb|right|Thus began (and ended) Bonecrusher's hatred of Prime's sword.]]

When they landed, he sucker-punched Optimus Prime, who then hit Bonecrusher so hard one of the Decepticon's [[optics]] popped free from its socket (he liked that eye... well, no, he didn't; he just hated not having it more.) The two played a little cat-and-mouse along the overpasses. After Prime jumped down to ground level, Bonecrusher swung his tail wildly at the Autobot, all the while screaming incoherently. This gave Optimus the opportunity he needed to get his sword ready... which the Autobot leader used to cleave Bonecrusher's right arm and run through the Decepticon's neck, nearly severing it. Optimus then wrenched Bonecrusher's head from its neck and tossed it aside.

Bonecrusher hates his movie role. {{Storylink|Transformers (2007)}}

===Toy Bio===
Despite all appearances, Bonecrusher managed to escape after his encounter with Optimus Prime (missing his head? beaten to a pulp?), and went to hide out in the South American jungle. He ''hates'' camping.

==Toys==
===Transformers (2007)===
====Legends Class toys====
*'''Autobot Jazz vs. Bonecrusher''' (Legends multi-pack, 2007)

[[Image:Movie_Legends_JazzBonecrusher_toys.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Sure Bonecrusher is smaller, that just means his hate is extra-concentrated.]]

: As part of the ''AllSpark Battles'' refresh of the Movie toyline, a Legends-class [[Jazz (Movie)|Jazz]] with altered [[paint application]]s is repacked in a Versus two-pack with an all-new Legends class figure of Bonecrusher. In Europe, he was packaged individually.

*'''Bonecrusher''' (Legends, 2008)

: An individually packaged release of the Legends class toy, released within Europe.

{{-}}

====Deluxe Class toys====
*'''Bonecrusher''' (Deluxe, 2007)
:''Japanese ID Number:'' '''MD-09'''

[[Image:moviebonecrushertoy.jpg|left|thumb|The name's doomed to be nothing but bulldozers or [[Bonecrusher (BW)|buffaloes]]. And he hates that.]]

: Bonecrusher transforms into a [[wikipedia:Buffalo_%28mine_protected_vehicle%29|Buffalo mine-protected vehicle]], with an articulated "mine-fork" for removing mines or cars or robots or unsuspecting buildings from his path. The fork can change from its packaged "Grabber claw" configuration into a more fork/shovel like configuration, a fact not stated on the instructions. He has six rolling wheels in this mode, and two sculpted, non-functional spare wheels.

: In robot mode he has elements resembling both his 2005 design and the final design used in the movie, though a major deviation to both designs is that the entire front shell halves of the vehicle mode are mounted upon his arms. His arms have limited articulation due to this [[kibble]], but can extend out into '''really''' long arms. His legs fare better, with ball jointed hips, swivel knees and ankles, but his hips can often detach from the codpiece holding them together. The mine-fork splits to form a grabber-claw, which can snap onto victims with a geared slider [[Automorph]] mechanism. He is surprisingly okay with these little tools of death.

: He is named "Bonescrusher" on the Canadian [[cross-sell]]. Guess how Bonecrusher feels about ''that'' little mispelling.

{{-}}

*'''Deluxe three-pack''' (Costco exclusive multi-pack, 2007)

:This Costco exclusive three-pack contains an unchanged Deluxe Class Bonecrusher together with equally unchanged Deluxe Class [[Brawl (Movie)|Decepticon Brawl]] and [[Jazz (Movie)|Autobot Jazz]] toys. It also comes with a niftly poster depicting all three toys in a standoff scene. Not so nifty is that the box accidently places Brawl and Bonecrusher's bios underneath each other.

{{-}}

*'''Jungle Bonecrusher''' (Deluxe, 2008)
[[Image:Movie_JungleBonecrusher_toy.jpg|thumb|left|200px|''The'' living definition of a Mean Green Fighting Machine. Bonecrusher, oddly enough, likes cliches.]]

: Finally, the big guy gets a [[redeco]], in deep forest green and olive green, as part of the "All Spark Power" refresh line. It's not easy being green, and he hates that. He also hates redecos, slavish or not.

===Attacktix===
*'''Transformers Tournament Set''' (2007)

[[Image:Attacktix_MovieTransformers_Tournament_Set.jpg|thumb|right|200px|So many people to crush, so little time. (Bonecrusher hates having little time to crush)]]

: Available exclusively in this set, this Attacktix playing piece of Bonecrusher is funnily enough one of the most accurate pieces of merchandise he has. The set also includes unique playing pieces of Optimus Prime, Megatron and Bumblebee. Bonecrusher hates the fact that everybody else has [[gun]]s, and he has to use a claw.

==Merchandise==
===Robot Heroes===
*'''Ironhide vs Bonecrusher''' (2007)

[[Image:Rhboneiron.jpg|left|thumb|250px|Bonecrusher is actually pretty glad that he doesn't come with sword-wielding ''RH'' Prime.]]

:Bonecrusher comes packaged with the impressively-armed [[Ironhide (Movie)|Ironhide]]. He is depicted lunging forward on his roller-skate feet, presumably to deliver an extremely enthusiastic hug. This figurine is notorious for not actually being able to stand up on its feet very well, usually requiring one of its hands to be used for balance. Also, he's got some kind of a sneering grin, making him look almost happy, even if it's an evil happy.

Bonecrusher really, '''''REALLY''''' hates his ''Robot Heroes'' toy.

{{-}}
==Trivia==
[[image:PhotoshopedBuffalo.PNG|250px|thumb|<small>*''Giant fork and Decepticon insignia not included with the real Buffalo.''*</small> Bonecrusher hates those disclaimers.]]

* The real Buffalo mine-sweeping vehicle hasn't in fact, such a huge fork. It is only 14 inches (35 cm) wide. The image that inspired Bonecrusher's design was actually a Photoshopped image put on the official Force Protection company's site to make it look more impressive[http://www.forceprotection.net/models/buffalo/]. A 10-foot-wide (3 m) appliance had to be fixed on Bonecrusher's arm for the movie. He hated that.[http://enewsi.com/news.php?catid=190&itemid=11213]

* Force Protection really, really loves Bonecrusher and that he has picked their Buffalo as its alt mode. They are actually quite proud of it.[http://www.forceprotection.net/news/transformers.html] Bonecrusher is not sure what to think about that.

* Bonecrusher's toy was used as a prop for a CNN Headline News report demonstrating the real Buffalo vehicle's mine-sweeping arm.[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=maAWP2uVd7M] He hates the Lincoln Memorial.

* It's a matter of debate whether or not Bonecrusher actually said anything intelligible in English during his brief appearance in the finished film, or whether he is talking in [[Cybertronian languages|Cybertronian]]. At various points in his fight with Optimus Prime, he does emit some garbled roars that ''might'' be English. However, there is little agreement among viewers as to whether he said anything at all, much less ''what'' he supposedly said. For what it's worth, the subtitles saying nothing on his speech, and the closed captions say that he is just "roaring". His only subtitled line is "Bonecrusher rolling." Although it isn't really noticed, Bonecrusher actually speaks coherent English once. Just seconds before he had his head cleaved off by Prime, he screams "Bloody hell!". Or it could just be that he hates speaking altogether. Other than that, it kinda makes you wonder why nobody has thought to contact [[Jimmie Wood]] and ''ask'' him just what the [[Slag (slang)| Slag]] he was saying.

* Bonecrusher is Michael Bay's favorite character from the film, despite his limited screentime—so much so that Bay named his new dog after him. Although the Decepticons are generally [[Ravage|cat]] people, Bonecrusher hates cats, so he is quite flattered. He still hates Bay for the small screen time he gets, though.

* Bonecrusher is never discussed or mentioned in the [[Transformers: The Movie Guide]]. He hates that. Then again, he hates kids reading about him, so it balances out.

* According to the DVD commentary, Bonecrusher's sequences were particularly difficult for [[ILM]] to do at first. The solution came from videotaping employees rollerblading at speed in the parking lot, and a pair of fighting experts going through the motions wanted for Bonecrusher and Prime, then using that footage as references. And Bonecrusher hates it when nobody knows how he fights.

* Bonecrusher's movements seem to be heavily inspired by several types of sports including hockey (his running movements) and American football (his tackling on Optimus Prime). And Bonecrusher hates that.

* Last but not least, Bonecrusher hates ''you''. Yeah, you. You know who you are. Don't try to pretend you don't know, either. Bonecrusher hates ignorance.
