Ambassador to many worlds, '''Crosscut''' (クロスカット ''Kurosukatto'', also '''Cross-Cut''') is key to the Autobots' peaceful negotiations across known space. He is fluent in over 230 Earth languages and 6300 alien languages. Though he carries a lot of weaponry, it is all defensive in nature, meant to incapacitate rather than kill. In dire emergencies, he can transfer all his data and memories to his scooter-drone [[Clutch (G1)|Clutch]] so his knowledge won't be lost even if he falls to the [[Decepticon]]s.<ref>''Collector's Edition'' Crosscut bio</ref>

Crosscut was the navigator of ''[[Sojourner's Passage]]'', one of several starships sent out by [[Hot Rod (G1)|Rodimus Prime]] in [[2005]] to explore the universe and establish recon points. He was especially interested in establishing first contact with undiscovered alien civilizations.

Crosscut was a member of the [[Elite Guard]]'s [[Recon Team]], working with [[Rest-Q (G1)|Rest-Q]], [[Delta Seeker]], and their field leader [[Roadfire]]. A former ambassador for Cybertron to other planets, he used his translating skills to compensate for Rest-Q's hopelessly-incomprehensible dialogues.<ref>From a set of Elite Guard character descriptions on the Club forums.</ref> He was also a playwright of some note.

[[File:Swerve crosscut the dead are not enough.jpg|thumb|left|upright=0.85|Here's some diplomacy right in your face!!]]
Crosscut is a former [[Senate|Senator]] turned playwright. He was [[reproduction|forged]], possessed a Vitrious-Negative [[spark]] and developed a phobia of [[Nanocon]]s during the war. He became famous for being one of the few Senators to take a stand during the early days of the Decepticon uprising, and celebrated for having liberated [[Petrex]] "with wise words and a shovel". However, Crosscut preferred people to know him for his art over his wartime reputation and eventually produced a play entitled ''[[My Shovel, Your Face]]''. {{storylink|The Dead Are Not Enough: Dark Cybertron Chapter 7|The Dead Are Not Enough}} {{storylink|Twenty Plus One}}

After the war's official end, he joined the ''[[Lost Light]]'' and was seen drinking in [[Swerve's]] with [[Smokescreen (G1)|Smokescreen]] shortly after [[First Aid (G1)|First Aid]] and [[Ambulon]] joined the crew. {{storylink|No Guns, No Swords, No Briefcases}}

[[File:Blurr crosscut the becoming.jpg|thumb|"I think his name was... ''Choom''?"]]
While fighting the [[Ammonite]]s on [[Hydrophena]], he invited [[Swerve (G1)|Swerve]] (who he confused with [[Rung (G1)|Rung]]) to see one of his plays (if they both survived). {{storylink|The Dead Are Not Enough: Dark Cybertron Chapter 7|The Dead Are Not Enough}} Unfortunately, he had already forgotten Swerve's name a few hours later when asked by [[Blurr (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Blurr]]. Inside Swerve's bar. Named ''Swerve's''. {{storylink|The Becoming: Dark Cybertron Chapter 10| The Becoming}} When the Ammonites attacked Cybertron shortly afterwards, he joined in the fight there. {{storylink|Black Planet: Dark Cybertron Chapter 11|Black Planet}}

Some time later, he helped run Swerve's (fake) "Crewditions" {{storylink|World, Shut Your Mouth Part 1: Towards Peace|Towards Peace}} and took prospective new crewmembers [[Riptide (G1)|Riptide]], [[Nautica (G1)|Nautica]], [[Mirage (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Mirage]], and [[Nightbeat (G1)|Nightbeat]] on a tour of the ''Lost Light''. {{storylink|No Guns, No Swords, No Briefcases}} He also began working on an experimental one-act, single stage play about [[information creep]] (called, unimaginatively, ''[[Information Creep]]'') but didn't have time to write the play before he, and every other original crewmember of the ''Lost Light'', vanished. {{storylink|Twenty Plus One}}

On a quantum duplicate ''Lost Light'', Crosscut did indeed finish ''Information Creep'' and was performing it at Swerve's when the [[Decepticon Justice Division]] arrived to massacre everyone. {{storylink|slaughterhouse}} When the original ''Lost Light'' reappeared, Crosscut and the rest of the crew returned along with it. {{storylink|slaughterhouse Part 2: The Road Not Taken|The Road Not Taken}} Some time later, he was seen drinking in Swerve's once again. {{storylink|The Lopsided Triangle}}

[[File:HowBrightTheirFrailDeeds-LostLightmutiny.jpg|thumb|left|270px|For Crosscut is an honorable man; so are they all, all honorable men]]
Crosscut attended Megatron's classes on the [[Knights of Cybertron]]. However, at some point he was approached by [[Getaway]] and [[Atomizer]] and vouched that he would support them in the event of a mutiny against the former Decepticon and his supporters. When the time came, the mutineers stranded [[Megatron (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Megatron]], [[Hot Rod (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Rodimus]], Swerve, and the others on the [[Mortilus|Necrobot]]'s planet and Crosscut stood alongside Getaway as he took the ''Lost Light''. {{storylink|The Dying of the Light: (1) How Bright Their Frail Deeds|How Bright Their Frail Deeds}}

After accepting Getaway as their new captain, Crosscut and the crew were unwillingly subjected to mnemosurgery by [[Sunder (G1)|Sunder]]. Their memories were altered to believe Rodimus and the others left the ''Lost Light'' of their own accord, abandoning the rest of the crew. {{storylink|The Plotters' Club (Part 2): Filling in the Blanks|Filling in the Blanks}} Crosscut was socializing at [["Visages"]] when [[First Aid (G1)|First Aid]] and the [[Protectobot (G1)|Protectobot]]s caught up with the ''Lost Light''. He sincerely explained what he ''believed'' had happened in First Aid's absence, although the doctor noted irregularities in the story he was told. {{storylink|The Plotters' Club (Part 1): Full Circle|Full Circle}}

Getaway ultimately betrayed his crew, however. When they were trapped by the [[Phantom Fleet]] of the [[Adaptus|Grand Architect]], Getaway turned Crosscut and the rest of his crew over to the Architect's ally, [[Scorponok (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Scorponok]]. They were subjected to a [[Sparkeater (creature)|Sparkeater]] virus, making them shambling, zombie-like drones who were later unleashed on Rodimus when his people caught up with them. {{storylink|Crucible (Part 1): A Dance Before Dying|A Dance Before Dying}} Crosscut was eventually cured and attended the ''Lost Light'''s farewell party in Swerve's. {{storylink|How To Say Goodbye And Mean It: Part 2}}

===''Beast Wars: Uprising''===
On post-war Cybertron, '''Cross-Cut''' was an immobile [[Builder of Cybertron|Builder]] and a member of the [[Builder Assembly]]. He and [[Kudon]] tried to advance the possibility of allowing a [[Micromaster]] into the Assembly, prompting [[Halogen (G1)|Halogen]] and [[Sigil (BWU)|Sigil]] to look for another Decepticon member to counter progress. {{storylink|Identity Politics}} [[Eject (G1)|Eject]] thought unfavorably of Cross-Cut and his fellow assemblymen. {{storylink|Broken Windshields}}

When the [[Grand Uprising]] of the proto-races started going badly, it was Cross-Cut who suggested the Assembly rescind [[General Order 66]], allowing their [[Vehicon (BM)|Vehicon]] drones to cross over into [[Iacon (polity)|Iacon]] and protect the Assembly directly. He was talked out of it by Administrator [[Eject (G1)|Eject]], and withdrew his proposal. When [[Ratbat (G1)|Ratbat]] revisited the proposal, Cross-Cut voted against it, but the order was rescinded by the majority. Instead of being their salvation, the Vehicons turned on their masters and assimilated all the assemblybots present, including Cross-Cut. {{storylink|Derailment}}

He also comes with a {{w|Honda Motocompo}} "scooter" accessory named "Clutch" that fits in his hatchback. As he was a Japanese release, his spring-loaded missile launcher is fully functional.

:Crosscut was an [[exclusive]] to [[e-HOBBY]], sold only in a set with [[Road Rage (G1)#Toys|Road Rage]]. Pre-orders ended on [[July 31]] of 2002, and the toys were sent out in October.

:Part of the tenth wave of 2012-onwards ''[[Transformers: Generations (toyline)#T30|Generations]]'' Deluxe Class toys, ''[[Thrilling 30]]'' Crosscut is a retool of [[Skids (G1)#Generations|Skids]], featuring a new head based on Crosscut's original toy. He transforms from a contemporary-looking hatchback into a heavily-armed robot, featuring (non-launching) missile pods in both shoulders, dual flip-out guns on each wrist, and two pairs of over-the-shoulder cannons. He comes with a rifle resembling his original toy's electromagnetic pulse emitter and a pistol based on a [[nudge gun]]. These weapons can combine into a larger rifle, and can be held or peg onto his vehicle sides via [[5 mm post]].

:The leg assembly error that many Skids figures had seems to have been corrected on this release. He has visible light-piping on the back of his head, but his eyes are painted yellow, rendering it useless. Sadly the balance problem was also left unresolved, causing Crosscut to have a great deal of trouble standing up unless posed in a way that offsets the weight.

:In the United States and Hasbro's Asian markets, he came [[pack-in material|packed]] with the Hasbro exclusive cover variant of "[[The Dead Are Not Enough: Dark Cybertron Chapter 7]]", with its pages out of order (pages 1-4 are placed between pages 20 and 21).

==Notes==
[[File:G1Skids-instructions.jpg|thumb|This is not my beautiful skull!]]
* Crosscut's "new" head and coloration are based on one of the original pre-''Transformers'' ''[[Diaclone]]'' versions of the "Honda City R" mold. The original silver version was only available in a "double set" with a blue version of the "4WD Hi-Lux Wrecker" (pre-[[Hoist (G1)/toys|Hoist]]) that was ''also'' only available in that set. A red ''Diaclone'' version of the Honda City R was never ported over to ''Transformers'' but did eventually inspire the character [[Reboost]].
* Crosscut and Road Rage are notable for being the first additions to the Generation 1-era cast of characters after the original line ended since the short-lived ''[[Machine Wars: Transformers|Machine Wars]]'' series. This also started the general trend toward e-HOBBY releases being new characters rather than old characters in new colors.
* There is evidence that this version of the mold was the one originally intended to be released in the original [[The Transformers (toyline)|Generation 1 line]] rather than the "Honda City Turbo" model that would become Skids. The original Skids's instructions have the Crosscut mold's line-art, and in the [[The Transformers (Marvel comic)|Marvel UK comic]], artists [[Dan Reed]] and [[John Stokes]] drew Skids with Crosscut's head in several panels. It's possible the Turbo model was chosen because its face was more human-looking (to go along with the generally more humanized faces the characters were given in the cartoon), but this is merely speculation.
* The ''Diaclone'' figure also had a variant black deco in stock photography, but this version was ultimately not released.<ref>[https://twitter.com/_necronomitron_/status/1395127144468992000 Catalogue scan by Twitter user @_necronomitron_, 19 May 2021]</ref>

==Notes==
[[File:G1Skids-instructions.jpg|thumb|This is not my beautiful skull!]]
* Crosscut's "new" head and coloration are based on one of the original pre-''Transformers'' ''[[Diaclone]]'' versions of the "Honda City R" mold. The original silver version was only available in a "double set" with a blue version of the "4WD Hi-Lux Wrecker" (pre-[[Hoist (G1)/toys|Hoist]]) that was ''also'' only available in that set. A red ''Diaclone'' version of the Honda City R was never ported over to ''Transformers'' but did eventually inspire the character [[Reboost]].
* Crosscut and Road Rage are notable for being the first additions to the Generation 1-era cast of characters after the original line ended since the short-lived ''[[Machine Wars: Transformers|Machine Wars]]'' series. This also started the general trend toward e-HOBBY releases being new characters rather than old characters in new colors.
* There is evidence that this version of the mold was the one originally intended to be released in the original [[The Transformers (toyline)|Generation 1 line]] rather than the "Honda City Turbo" model that would become Skids. The original Skids's instructions have the Crosscut mold's line-art, and in the [[The Transformers (Marvel comic)|Marvel UK comic]], artists [[Dan Reed]] and [[John Stokes]] drew Skids with Crosscut's head in several panels. It's possible the Turbo model was chosen because its face was more human-looking (to go along with the generally more humanized faces the characters were given in the cartoon), but this is merely speculation.
* The ''Diaclone'' figure also had a variant black deco in stock photography, but this version was ultimately not released.<ref>[https://twitter.com/_necronomitron_/status/1395127144468992000 Catalogue scan by Twitter user @_necronomitron_, 19 May 2021]</ref>

'''''Transformers: The Covenant of Primus''''' is a hardcover book presenting the [[Covenant of Primus]] as written by [[Alpha Trion (WFC)|Alpha Trion]], with 60 new lavish illustrations. The book itself is contained inside an [[Insignia|Autobrand]]-shaped casing, that plays the [[Transformation#The noise|transformation noise]] when opened. The book was exclusive to the [[Amazon (website)|Amazon]] publishing group 47North.

==Summary==
===Foreword===
Alpha Trion admits he does not know the origin of [[Primus]] or what happened before his own creation. There are pages for this "before time" (a great many, he later states) in the Covenant but he cannot read their symbols. Then he states that THIS volume will be an editing/arrangement of Covenant intended for a [[human]] audience, to help them learn about their galactic neighbors. To forward this purpose he has "translated" terms, concepts, and customs at times into forms easier for humans to relate to.

===Chapter 1: The Thirteen Primes===
Alpha Trion recalls the moment of his creation and then that of [[Solus Prime]] and the others following him, each appearing "ex nihilo" in repeating explosions of lighting and tremor. Immediately after their creation they feel Primus fade away into hypersleep. He leaves them with a last vision of how he and [[Unicron]] became a divided duality from a single original being and fell into eternal conflict and battle too evenly matched to ever end.

Primus sought to change that eternal stalemate by removing himself from the equation and substituting beings of much greater variety and unique varied potential to change the future: a group of Thirteen each with creative new approaches to the problem of Unicron. These Thirteen were formed to incorporate facets of both Primus and Unicron's natures, increasing the options for new direction far beyond the equally matched duality of the original combatants.

Alpha Trion then gives a brief several paragraph portrait of each Prime in the order of their creation: [[Prima]], [[Vector Prime]], Alpha Trion, Solus Prime (including a brief digression on the nature of Gender in Transformers), [[Micronus Prime]], [[Alchemist Prime]], [[Nexus Prime]], [[Onyx Prime]], [[Amalgamous Prime]], [[Quintus Prime]], [[Liege Maximo]], [[The Fallen|Megatronus]], and the [[Optimus Prime (WFC)|Thirteenth Prime]] (referred to by the book simply as "''Thirteen''" for in-story reasons).

===Chapter 2: The Expulsion of Unicron===
The newborn Primes quickly settle down to learn their own abilities, to train and to strategize for the coming conflict with Unicron. They split into three natural teams: Warriors (Prima, Vector, Megatronus, Onyx and Amalgamous), Strategists (Trion, Quintus, Maximo, and Micronus), and "Free Agents" capable of direct battle or more subtle/varied attacks (Alchemist, Solus, Nexus, and ''Thirteen''). Many strategies were discussed and abandoned.

Personality conflicts simmered between some of the Thirteen (between the very Primus-like Prima and strongly Unicron-influenced Megatronus particularly) but their unified purpose bound them together. It was in this period that Megatronus requested the construction of the [[Requiem Blaster (Megatronus)|Requiem Blaster]] from Solus, and though she was hesitant to make such a thing she decided that she trusted him and would do as he asked. The faith she put in him and the fine speech she made proclaiming it touched the often shunned Megatronus deeply and bound him to her in absolute loyalty and unswerving love, softening his hard edges, though inflating his great pride.

Training continued and friendships formed. Eventually they settled on a plan to battle and distract Unicron as a cover to opening a path for ''Thirteen'' to be inserted in close proximity to Unicron's core. Once there his uniquely Primus-like spark would react with Unicron's and both would be knocked into involuntary shutdown. The Primes would then retrieve and (hopefully) revive him.

When the time of battle came it proved far more hellish and terrible than they had imagined in all their training. Unicron assaulted them with defenses far beyond their expectations and, worse, the mere aura of his presence crushed all their hopes and dreams nearly drowning their sparks in despair and darkness. Only the comforting words "All are One" sent by ''Thirteen'' to reassure each and rekindle their hope let them continue fighting, eventually succeeding in their goal. Unicron was vanquished, knocked into unconsciousness, hopefully forever. This was not without cost. There were many grave injuries. But worse each of them had been tainted with a touch of darkness by their closeness to Unicron.

===Chapter 3: The War of the Primes===
The touch of Unicron was a contamination that festered silently as they tried to ignore it and pretend it would fade and it would likely play a part in the tragedies that were to come. Though it was the fertile ground they gave it, Alpha Trion now realizes, that let it grow.

In the long ages following Unicron's defeat the Primes each turned towards their own interests. [[Vector Sigma]] and the device that would much later become the [[Matrix of Leadership]] were among the projects of this era. Prima, Vector Prime, and Alpha Trion concerned themselves mostly with government and the planning of rules and order for a new community and civilization. The independently-natured Megatronus, Maximo, and Amalgamous focused on Energon stores, mining, and refining, but were resentful of what they saw as the first group's bossy, controlling interference. Micronus, Onyx, Solus and Nexus lacked interest in the politics of either group and concerned themselves largely with their own creative tasks. While ''Thirteen'', Alchemist and Quintus traveled freely between cliques, the Liege Maximo was the true emissary, always traveling and communicating between all groups and individuals with his natural beguiling charm.

During this period the feelings between Megatronus and Solus deepened into true and mutual love. This surprised the more distant and insular Primes like Prima, Vector and Trion, but the later Primes (especially ''Thirteen'', Onyx and Micronus) smiled on the idea and enjoyed seeing their friend Solus happy. Megatronus was jealous of her by nature, but she was in large the hub that connected all the Primes into friendship and family.

Discord among the Primes began to build more strongly when Maximo discovered and revealed a chart where Prima had plotted which Primes were the most like Unicron and functioned as "Agents of Chaos." This enraged Megatronus (who had always been secretly ashamed of and at inner war with his own nature).

The cracks in their bonds began final disintegration when it was revealed that Liege Maximo, with the covert help of Quintus and Megatronus, had been experimenting with creating new robot beasts and requested an extremely powerful armor suit from Solus to deal with them. Though the creatures were yet nonliving and he presented them as small toys really, Solus and the other Primes felt something was off about these secret creations and his feeling that he needed such a powerful suit to deal with them. Maximo promised to reveal all in time and attempted to persuade Solus with the gift of a small robot pet that she soon grew to love. Prima on the other hand was sure their experiments were wrong. He ordered the secret "Farm" where they experimented shut down or he would shut it down. In following him to its location Alpha Trion accidentally learned that larger beasts were being pitted against one another in combat and that perhaps worse things still were occurring in secret underground caves. Maximo tried again to get his "needed" armor from Solus with words and charm and a promise that he would use it to shut things down safely but she did not believe him.

The conflict over Maximo's rights to experiment with nonliving robots in secret versus Prima's decree that it must stop came to a head when ''Thirteen'' demanded a full vote to decide the issue. The contentious match was evenly split with the deciding vote falling to Solus. Despite her dislike for Prima's actions and attitude ("Time rust you." she said to him as she voted) in the end her decision went against Maximo.

Maximo then convinced Megatronus to go and make a last attempt to get the armor from her. Shortly after this arguing and a blow was heard from the Forge and when the other Primes raced to investigate they found Solus Prime dead, killed by a blast from the Requiem Blaster. The Primes were shattered by this first loss among their number; Onyx driven nearly mad with grief, Micronus inconsolable, Nexus at a loss, the others angry and demanding Megatronus be found and made to pay. ''Thirteen'' did his best to calm them and prevent a lynch mob mentality.

Surprising them all Solus's dead body began to glow blue and melt away into the surface of Cybertron. On and on the reaction went as she melted down opening a channel to the deep core of Primus himself at the center of the world: The [[Well of All Sparks]].

Upon their finding him waiting Megatronus willingly revealed what had happened. He had found a device (apparently left out for him to find on purpose by Maximo) through which the Liege had monitored Solus through the "pet" he had given her. Megatronus heard her say that she thought Maximo was playing him for a fool. Hurt deeply by this "betrayal" of her faith in him he went to try and retrieve the armor. She refused to give it and suggested that he should perhaps return the Requiem Blaster as well. He reacted badly, imagining she never loved him and they all hated him for what he was, and the two begin to fight. Her pet attacked him and he blasted it, causing her (not knowing its nature as Maximo's spy) to swing the Forge at him in anger and he to fire the Requiem Blaster in blind unthinking response. Her last dying words to him were a profession of her love.

Upon confrontation at the "Farm" Maximo attempted to blame it all on Megatronus as the "true mastermind." Saying Megatronus's violent need to test himself battling the war beasts they were building in secret was behind it all, while Megatronus became enraged realizing that Maximo had indeed been manipulating and using them all this whole time and is setting him up to take the fall (and Quintus meanwhile just kinda squirms and whines and refuses to take personal responsibility for anything he did). All out battle breaks out among them and all the Primes fall into the caverns below, where they are set upon by three incredibly massive war beasts.

When Alpha Trion awoke a time later it was all over. He and ''Thirteen'' were largely unscathed. The beasts were destroyed. The Liege Maximo was torn to pieces, his head mostly destroyed by the Requiem Blaster that Trion could not remember being fired. Onyx, having suffered the brunt of the beasts attacks, was fatally wounded and would soon die.

A tomb was built for Solus and her forge placed with in it. Another tomb built for Maximo. Megatronus, in grief and shame and realization of his foolishness, renamed himself "the Fallen" and decided that he would leave forever, to honor Solus he would take a ship and travel far into distant space and help those beings he found there as best he could with his power.

Those that remained hatched a new plan. They would retire from active life on their world and leave it to descendants. Onyx Prime would travel to the bottom of the Well of All Sparks where the presence of Primus would sustain him forever despite his grave wounds. There he would use his [[Triptych Mask]] to recombine the designs of the Thirteen in a manner similar to what Primus had done with himself and Unicron when first making the Thirteen. Thus their descendants would have again orders more variation and uniqueness with which to shape the future. ''Thirteen'' decided to go into the Well himself so that he could be remade as one of these new robots and so know better how to help them. Quintus would go into space to experiment and seed life there and make them future allies. Prima and Alpha Trion would guide and protect the new life. At the last Micronus chose to go with Onyx into the well to keep his closest remaining friend company in his eternal retreat.

Thus the [[Age of Primes]] came to an end.

===Chapter 4: The Age of Evolution===
After ''Thirteen'', Onyx and Micronus vanished into the Well a vast upheaval shook the world. A beam erupted from the Well of All Sparks and shot out across the stars. Alchemist Prime recognized it as the gaze of the Triptych Mask scanning all the way to the edge of the Universe and then transmitting back pattern information on all the varied lifeforms found amongst the stars to inform and shape the creation of Cybertron’s new life.

When the beam cut off there came forth from the Well a great deluge of robotic life of every conceivable size and shape. Crawling, flying, walking, rolling, fluttering, slithering lifeforms swarmed forward, some as small as a rivet and others as big as an arm or leg. For three days these small creatures surged forth in uncountable numbers and variety, and then larger creatures began to follow them. Among these were biped humanoid forms. First among them the watching Primes recognized the vastly transformed, reduced, simplified form that had once stood among their number. Alpha Trion attuned himself to track this new robot, who would be known as Orion Pax. Despite Prima’s misgivings Alpha Trion stood by the decision to keep their inherited [[Transformation cog|T-Cog]] and its abilities secret from the newborn lifeforms for the time being.

On the last day of this first burst of creation came a new breed of robot, towering gigantic and monstrous beasts: the Predacons, as they were dubbed by Prima, emerged from the Well. The first and most powerful among them was the [[Predaking (COP)|Predaking]] and his followers [[Lazerback (COP)|Lazerback]] and [[Twinstrike (COP)|Twinstrike]].

From then on the Well would send forth new life to replace the dead or occasionally to introduce new lifeforms until Cybertron was a lush rich living world covered completely in varied, complex and thriving ecosystems. The Covenant grew great with the chronicle of this new Age of Evolution.

During this time Prima faced the dominant Predaking in battle and won from him a promise to no longer prey on the humanoid Cybertronians in his domain.

Eventually though all things end. For Cybertron this ending would be known as "The [[Great Cataclysm|Cataclysm]]." The temporary pass of a swollen red star tugged free an armada of asteroids from the [[Trypticon Asteroid Belt|Debris Belt]] beyond the 5th planet of Cybertron’s system and sent them hurling towards the unprotected world. Though the Primes deflected many they could not stop them all. Meteorfalls smashed into Cybertron and plunged it into the equivalent of a nuclear winter. Though this was not as fatal a blow as it would have been to organic life forms there was a second threat that was even more deadly. The pull of the second star caused vast solar flares to burst forth from their planet’s star and scourge Cybertron in apocalyptic fire and radiation that no life form could survive.

The Primes did the only thing they could and gathered as many Cybertronians as possible into the deep underground caves there they might be shielded. They taught them how to activate a protective Stasis Lock that would let them survive there until the surface became habitable once more. Many life forms were extinguished forever during the Cataclysm. Left alone on the surface the barbaric Predacons at first fled from the flares under Predaking’s command but soon realized there was no escape from these flames of extinction. Only in their last moments did Predaking recall some instinctual knowledge of stasis lock and attempt to protect himself and his race beneath the planet’s surface. Whether any Predacons survived in the end was unknown to even Alpha Trion.

When the dying star in time passed them by the small and medium Transformers that survived, though greatly reduced in numbers, emerged at last and began to once more shape their world and civilization.

===Chapter 5: The Age of Origins===
As the Great Cataclysm faded into the past the Transformers once again took up the work of taming and terraforming their world. Across the planet discoveries were made, robots banded together in groups and a general sense of purpose and meaning born of their brush with planetary mortality infused all life. The most influential group in these early days were the [[Patterner]]s.

Formed of a group of friends who passed the dark times below the surface discussing the cause of the Cataclysm and how another might be prevented, the Patterners considered both supernatural and scientific meanings and causes. Under the guidance of a lifelong student of the stars named [[Azimuth (COP)|Azimuth]] they came to study the true, impartial movements of the cosmos in logic, mathematics and pattern. Upon emerging from the dark they began the work of inscribing those patterns upon the surface of the world so they could never be overlooked or forgotten by those on Cybertron or others among the stars. This movement spread across the world in the time to come and all of Cybertron’s surface was soon carved and shaped with the geometric patterns that traced out the movements of the stars, galaxies and time itself. [[Perceptor (Prime)|Perceptor]] and [[Reflector (COP)|Reflector]] numbered among the prominent members of the Patterners.

The remaining original Primes spent the time of the Patterner rise gathering their scattered artifacts and ensuring what little memory of them survived the Cataclysm passed into the realm of blurry myth and legend. Many warlords and tribes of barbarian ravagers rose in this era as the Patterner states struggled for survival. Eventually as hundreds of stellar cycles passed [[Iacon (polity)|Iacon]] emerged as a refuge of learning and study. Alpha Trion took up residence there and inaugurated the [[Hall of Records]]. The Well slowly birthed more bipedal Transformers and less of the animalistic sorts, but in the barbaric wildernesses [[Insecticon (WFC)|Insecticons]] and other bestial bots still roamed. A band of warriors known as the [[Wrecker]]s formed with the goal of protecting the weak and vulnerable from marauding and pillaging groups like the [[Vandal]]s, [[Breaker (COP)|Breakers]], and [[Ravager]]s. Through these wilds, from a primitive distant village, a young [[Ratchet (WFC)|Ratchet]] set out on a pilgrimage to the beacon of learning that was Iacon. There he apprenticed himself to the Chief of Surgery [[Remedy (COP)|Remedy]].

Over the long march of ages the Patterner movement eventually splintered into all sorts of forms, from mystic cults to social clubs, all with disparate purposes and goals. One splinter faction was a cult that dubbed itself [[Random]] and sought to foment chaos and erase all order in the world. They survived only a short time, but their mad leader [[Galvatron (COP)|Galvatron]] embodied everything Azimuth despised. Over time the Patterner movement faded to other ideas and newer creeds. Trade Kings and Queens rose and fell, as did many states and powers legal and illegal, and small conflicts and wars bloomed and ended.

In near space however the [[Quintesson]]s (whom Alpha Trion would recognize as the work of Quintus Prime and his [[Emberstone]]) watched and planned. Junior Medic Ratchet and his colleague Dr. [[Cogwheel]] found the first evidence of their movement: a probe implanted in a worker named [[Coldwelder]]. Soon the Quintessons descended on Cybertron in glory proclaiming their goal to "uplift" Cybertron into a great transcendent galactic community. To prove their word and good intent they "gifted" Cybertronians with the wondrous power of transformation (for they knew of the T-Cog that the Transformers did not, and how to activate it). Despite the caution of Alpha Trion to the ears that would listen, this seemingly magical gift of transformation won the day, and all Cybertron soon bowed to the power of their new "Benevolent saviors" from the stars.

===Chapter 6: The Age of Wrath===
The Quintessons quickly took over the planet under cover of benevolently guiding the Transformers toward galactic ascension. Transformer society underwent a complete transformation and globalization. The Quints guided the Transformers to fix roads, develop astrophysics, master spaceflight, open dimensional portals, systemize industry, create order, impose a planetary rule of law, establish the world-leading political office of [[Prime (rank)|Prime]], establish an electoral system, and regulate the orders of Form and Function. It was a shame they were secretly doing it all as preparation for selling the entire population as worker slaves.

Some Transformers were taken into "partnership" and altered with cockpits to act as personal transportation for the Quintessons, the rest were organized into mandatory working "collectives." Half of the world’s production was whisked away to space to "prepare for the future" and the other half went to secret Quintesson projects across the planet.

With the introduction of a planetary police force for the first time the clashing warrior bands of the past like the Razers and Wreckers became marginalized outlaws (something the traditionally "heroic" Wreckers took rather hard.)

The Quintessons also established a [[Supreme Court]] with a vicious circus-like atmosphere where anyone could charge anyone else without any particular need for evidence and the common verdict of "innocent" meant life imprisonment or death by [[Sharkticon (species)|Sharkticon]].

By far the worst symptom of the Quintesson occupation was that new Transformers were beginning to emerge from the Well without names or developed personalities. The process of ascent from the Well, that usually informed them of the world above and shaped them as individuals was altering under the new social conditions to instead turn out robots defined only by the positions they were meant to take in the labor collectives of the new order. Robots like [[Megatron (WFC)|D-16]]. The Quintessons were surprised by but quite content with this turn of events.

The resistance and dissent these things caused began to build, though the Quintessons seemed blithely unaware or unconcerned.

Over all this ruled the newly elected [[Sentinel Zeta Prime|Sentinel Zeta]], as the first planetary leader: Sentinel Prime, and his council of thirteen. A former mercenary and warrior, Sentinel was not about to allow himself to be a puppet. Luring a robot named [[Ultra Magnus (WFC)|Ultra Magnus]] away from the Wreckers he began to investigate the Quintesson’s secret projects. A non-government underground resistance involving the Wreckers and others was at work as well and among them a robot known as [[Shockwave (WFC)|Shockwave]] was the first to crack the Quintesson codes. A member of Sentinel’s council named [[Soundwave (WFC)|Soundwave]] then stole this breakthrough. Two friends, [[Prowl (WFC)|Prowl]] and [[Bluestreak (Prime)|Bluestreak]], analyzed the data and discovered the truth: The secret construction projects were massive [[Space bridge|Space Bridges]] (a technology the Quintessons had apparently stolen and did not fully understand themselves) intended to ship the population of Cybertron out into the Galaxy as slave labor.

It was during this period of covert resistance that Orion Pax first met another secret freedom fighter, [[Jazz (WFC)|Jazz]], and the two became best friends. The situation was dire, as along with their secret projects the Quintessons had also constructed a vast army of Sharkticons with which to control the population. The resistance needed to mobilize the populace. They intercepted the birth of a robot named [[Silverbolt (WFC)|Silverbolt]] at the Well of All Sparks and with the help of Ratchet and Cogwheel proved that the T-Cog was a preexisting piece of natural Transformer biology. Revealing this piece of Quintesson deception together with a broadcast of a Sharkticon force massacring Cybertronians was the last piece needed. With the planet behind him Sentinel launched a full-on war against the Quintesson oppressors.

The war raged for a period but the enraged population of Cybertron eventually overwhelmed their would-be masters and soon it was a full rout as the Quintessons retreated to their cloaked starship and abandoned the system all together. Cybertron was free.

Behind them the Qunitessons left lingering anger, an entrenched planetary bureaucracy, a stifling stratified social system based on Functionalism, and a Well of All Sparks still birthing more unnamed workers than individuals.

And a score of soon-to-be-completed Space Bridges set to open the doors to the stars.

===Chapter 7: The Golden Age===
With the Quintessons gone and the Space Bridges under their control Cybertron lauched into an age of prosperity, wealth and expansion such as it had never known before. The [[Golden Age]] of Cybertron had begun.

New Transformers emerged from the Well in large numbers. This was seen as a blessing from Primus and religious impulse grew, sparking new cults and churches. An entertainment industry, catering to the new prosperous classes and centered around the revival and reinterpretation of ancient myths and stories began to boom.

One of the few downsides of this boom time and period of growth was that there was little space for social change in the rush to meet the new economic and material demands of growth, and so the Quintesson’s strict caste system grew entrenched. One’s "proper place" in the world being definite and unchangeable was considered for all intents a physical law of the Universe.

For the next 8,000 Stellar Cycles Cybertron society pursued a destiny of galactic exploration and colonization. Over 200 distant uninhabited worlds were [[Cybertronian colonies|colonized]] by use of the Space Bridges and many of them [[cyberforming|cyberformed]] into miniature Cybertrons via the usage of a [[conversion beam]]. In order to relieve their growing energon drain on the homeworld it was decided that these new planets must be given their own Well of All Sparks to power them. This was first attempted on the already energy rich colony of [[Archon]]. Though doomsday cultists fearing the disruption of Primus attempted to interrupt the ceremony the intervention of the Wreckers and the sniper known as [[Moonracer (COP)|Moonracer]] ended their trouble. A "torch" was lit from the Well to be passed from Transformer to Transformer (Bluestreak first among them) across Cybertron and then across the Bridge where the head of the Archon colony, [[Metalhawk (COP)|Metalhawk]], at last dropped it into their smaller replica of the Well. After a tense handful of moments Archon’s Well came to life in smaller echo of Cybertron’s own.

Galactic expansion spread even quicker and farther. Cybertron prospered. New [[alien]] races were met and contact with new cultures opened nearly every stellar cycle. Sentinel Prime ruled with a steady, sure hand. For a long, long stretch of time everything was indeed "Golden."

And then, in the blink of an optic, it wasn’t. The [[Keepers (COP)|Keepers]], guardians of Cybertron’s physical structure, reported that Energon supplies, drained by the off-world colonies, had dropped to dangerously low levels and the Well was producing new Transformers at only a 10th of the previous rate. This fallowness was reported by all the smaller Wells on distant worlds as well.

This alone would have been a crisis perhaps. What followed turned it into something much worse. In deep space a Cybertronian transport ship discovered a terrible, virulent and unstoppable [[Cosmic Rust (disease)|Rust Plague]]. With apocalyptic swiftness it spread through the Space Bridge networks, killing every robot infected with terrifying speed. Whole worlds infected, entire populations dying horribly by the hour and the disease spreading unstoppably across the stars there was no choice but to destroy all the Space Bridges before Cybertron itself was reached by the plague.

Prowl broke orders and attempted to retrieve his dearest friend Bluestreak from Archon before destroying the Bridge, but Bluestreak refused. The Plague had reached Archon. Law and logic and duty said he could not endanger Cybertron by returning. Prowl pleaded desperately and Bluestreak attempted to console him that Metalhawk’s teams might yet halt the Plague’s spread on Archon with fire. With [[Ironhide (WFC)|Ironhide]] looking on a bereft and heartbroken Prowl had no choice but to destroy the Bridge and say goodbye to his dearest, closest friend.

The destruction worked. Cybertron was spared the Plague. But the Space Bridges were gone and with them the star spanning empire lost forever.
The [[Age of Rust]] had begun.

===Chapter 8: The Age of Rust===
The traumatic events at the end of the Golden Age shattered the Cybertronians' vision of the themselves, their future and their place in the universe. The population that was left was surprisingly small but the available Energon reserves were smaller still. Social stratification again re-entrenched itself for both security and rationing purposes. A sense of hopelessness, of the impossibility and purposeless of all pursuits suffused society.

In the city of Kaon dangerous criminally-owned extreme sports, including gladiatorial blood-sports, rose to thrill the dejected public. Though a temperance movement rose to counter this it did little to check the growth of vice. Suicide rates soared. New robots emerged from the Well in record low numbers and almost all without forming full personal identities or names.

Councillor Soundwave gave impassioned speeches against the repressive government by [[Form and Function]] that was the social legacy of the Quintessons, the bloated bureaucracy that held it in place, and the uselessness and hypocrisy of Sentinel Prime in the face of these problems. When his words could not produce change Soundwave quit the council and cut all ties with them.

Alpha Trion knew the issues were grave and so sought audience with Vector Sigma, the sentient, perhaps even living, interface the Thirteen had built to communicate with the core of the planet. Alpha Trion was searching for the Matrix of Leadership to break the malaise that smothered the world and usher in a new age. Vector Sigma refused, as the Matrix's time was coming soon, but in its own way. The computer did grant him the [[Badge of Vector Prime]] as a token for Sentinel.

Before he could deliver it the badge reacted with Alpha's own artifacts, the Covenant and the Quill. They burned a strange and uncontrolled outpouring of largely indecipherable text into the future of the book: ''Thirteen'' needed to be awakened. To do so he needed an equal and opposite number, a cataclysmic reaction to jog his own heart into motion. Though Alpha Trion was at first unsure of how the future had been shaped by the artifacts that day, the rise of a certain Gladiator in the pits of Kaon shortly after stuck a chord of recognition...

D16 had taken to the pits and thrived. He had renamed himself Megatronus, and the crowds had soon shortened that to Megatron. Orion Pax became intrigued by his call for revolt and social equality. They became friends and compatriots. Megatron seemed to actually like Orion and Alpha Trion hoped Orion might temper Megatron's excesses as he once had for the original Megatronus.

Alas, Megatron could not stand to give any power to another, even someone he liked. Though they wished for the same thing, their differing inclinations led them to form separate opposing factions: the [[Decepticon]]s, aimed at violent forceful revolution, and the [[Autobot]]s, aimed at peaceful social change. All came to a head when Sentinel and his Council, at Alpha Trion's behest, gave the quest to recover the Matrix of Leadership to Orion Pax and named him the new Prime. Megatron saw this as the greatest affront and betrayal, and severed all ties with his former "brother." The [[Great War (Prime)|Great War]] had begun.

===Chapter 9: The Great War===
At the start of the Great War many were forced to join the Decepticons at the end of a gun.

Security was assigned to the Council, including [[Smokescreen (Prime)|Smokescreen]] to Alpha Trion. Sentinel Prime thought he was untouchable still, but Megatron’s forces attacked him in the heart of the [[Altihex |Altihex]] Casino during a comedy performance. His security for the night was Air Commander [[Starscream (WFC)|Starscream]]. Sentinel’s cowardly reaction turned Starscream's mind on the spot and he captured his former charge for Megatron, buying himself into the 'Con elite. With Starscream went most of the [[Air Command]], a good portion of the planet's security information, and the secrets of [[Trypticon (WFC)|Trypticon]] station and the [[Dark Energon]] hidden within.

Starscream’s former compatriot [[Jetfire (WFC)|Jetfire]] was one of the few of his type to join the Autobots and did what little he could to counter Starscream’s actions. He attempted to rescue Sentinel together with Optimus Prime, but they were unsuccessful and Megatron killed Sentinel to claim the key to the [[Plasma Energy Chamber]] hidden in his chest.

To Megatron’s regret these keys, instead of opening the planet’s core to him awakened the giant Autobot [[Omega Supreme (WFC)|Omega Supreme]]. Alas Omega’s contribution to the fight was short lived, as Starscream and the Seekers blew him from the sky. Megatron gained access to the core of the planet and attempted to transform it with Dark Energon. Desperate to counter this Optimus Prime called out to Iacon and the city itself transformed into a Transformer of unprecedented size: [[Metroplex (FOC)|Metroplex]]. This titan was able to hold back the Decepticon Army long enough for Prime to reach the planet core and destroy the Dark Energon poisoning the planet.

But Primus was wounded enough that he would need to shut down to regenerate. He placed a portion of his own spark in the Matrix of Leadership and gave it to Optimus Prime. It was this gift that restored Optimus Prime to his original Thirteen self.

While all this happened Alpha Trion struggled to find ships for an exodus to the stars and gather powerful artifacts such as the Star Saber, Blades of Time, Apex Armour, and the Omega Keys, hiding them in artificial meteor-ships and launching them off world to places like [[Velocitron]], [[Junkion (planet)|Junkion]] and [[Earth]] to keep them out of Decepticon hands.

Optimus Prime, after receiving the Matrix, ordered construction of the Ark so that the Autobots could leave their dormant world.

Metroplex died in the ensuing battles and returned his [[Spark]] and energy to the center of the world to bolster Primus.

It was in this era that one of the youngest Transformers, one of the last born before the Well went silent at the start of the war, came to prominence. Young [[Bumblebee (WFC)|Bumblebee]] distracted Megatron while Optimus and his team had attempted to rescue Sentinel Prime. It cost him his voice box, crushed by Megatron’s own hands. Despite this loss, his spirit and heart caused him to become an important part of the Autobot team and a little brother and silent confidant to the others.

Soon it became clear that Megatron would take Iacon and the Well. The Allspark was jettisoned from the Well into space to keep it from Decepticon hands.

Alpha Trion, Smokescreen and the Wreckers among others would stay behind on Cybertron to preserve what they could there after the Ark launch. As the Ark launched, Megatron soon followed with the Nemesis, a ship formed from the brain-dead body of Trypticon.

On Cybertron the Decepticons had left behind Shockwave, a twisted scientist who passed the time experimenting on and reinventing any unfortunate robots who came into his hands. He fiddled with Insecticons and created altered Forged followers for himself. He was able to get a damaged Space Bridge to partially work and used it as a view port through time and space. Glimpsing Cretaceous Earth he altered a group of captured Autobots, the Lightning Strike Coalition, into robotic versions of the beasts he saw there. Thus Grimlock, Slug, Sludge, and Swoop became the Dinobots. When the Dinobots broke free and joined the Autobots as defenders of what remained of Cybertron Shockwave set out to create a new, more powerful Forged to bring them back to him.

And so the War in large part ended and the burnt out quiet plains of Cybertron became a mostly dead limbo of silent metal.

===Chapter 10: Exodus===
Though the Ark had left the planet behind, the mystical Quill continued to follow its story beyond the Space Bridge, recording it all in the Covenant.

Their first port of call was Velocitron. It had been intended as a fun project world for racer enthusiasts, not a long term colony, but the Rust Plague had cut it off with all the others. Despite a dying sun that threatened to consume them, the Velocitrons had slipped deeper into their obsession with racing and simply waited for Cybertron and a Prime to save them. In interacting with the natives (especially Override, Blurr, and Ransack) the Autobots and later the Decepticons following them spread their conflict to a new world. Optimus also recovered several Thirteen artifacts and gained two new crew members, Clocker and Mainspring.

Next stop for the Ark was Junkion, where they made contact with the leader of the Junkions, Wreck-Gar. While there, Prowl and Jazz were able to trap a traitor among their number: the [[Shifter]] named Axer who had disguised himself as Hound. Optimus rediscovered the Tomb of Solus Prime and was visited and warned by her spirit. The last parts of the artifact they had found on Velocitron were recovered and revealed as Vector Prime’s [[Blades of Time]].

When the Nemesis arrived at Junkion, it was revealed that the planetoid had formed around the ancient massive Requiem Blaster. The Decepticons retrieved it and mounted it on the underside of the Nemesis. In the battle that followed, the true identity of Clocker, Mainspring, Chaindrive, Pinion and Cannonspring was also revealed as they combined back into the original Nexus Prime. Together Optimus and Nexus, two of the Thirteen, and the Autobots stopped the Nemesis and returned the Blaster to the core of Junkion.

The chase was off again as the Nemesis followed the Ark away from Junkion and were themselves followed by a vengeful [[Thundertron|Captain Thundertron]] and his pirate band of [[Star Seeker]]s.

On Cybertron, Alpha Trion and the Dinobots continued to defy Shockwave’s depredations.

In space, Autobots, Decepticons and Star Seekers ran afoul of their ancient foes the Quintessons and had to join forces against them, but then resumed their chase through the stars.

Their next encounter was with the starship fleet of the amusingly fae and transmutable [[Mutacon]]s. Their outgoing, effervescent leader [[Mercury (COP)|Mercury]] explained that they were Transformers who had fled the colony of [[Neutronia]] in ships when the Plague hit. In space they had discovered the mystical artifact of Amalgamous Prime – the original [[Transformation Cog (artifact)|Transformation Cog]]. They had taken it with them for safe keeping and proximity to it had granted them strange new powers: infinite transformation and infinite combination. Their starships were now the combined bodies of hundreds of their crew. Unfortunately the process was slowly merging them into one being, causing them to lose their individual personalities and memories. Now they were on a quest for Amalgamous Prime, hoping he could reverse the process. When Mercury and Optimus met face to face, the Matrix downloaded to her the history of Cybertron after the Plague and she found Megatron’s philosophy of "Peace through Tyranny" to be hilariously stupid. Though they could not help the Mutacons find Amalgamous, a friendship was struck and the jovial Mutacons happily delayed the pursuers so the Ark could escape ahead.

In the stellar cycles that followed, many more adventures were had as the Autobots and the Ark traveled ever outward across the stars, searching for the Allspark and trying to elude their hunters.

Eventually Shockwave alone among the remaining Cybertronian Decepticons continued to cause much trouble. Encountering him, two Autobots, Arcee and Cliffjumper, were sent through a space bridge and met up with Optimus's team on the world where their star-flung Exodus at last came to an end: [[Earth]].

===Chapter 11: Earthfall===
Alpha Trion chooses to end this edit of the Covenant with excerpts from the personal Journals of Optimus Prime and Arcee to give the events some personal context.

Optimus Prime — Arriving on Earth, Optimus is surprised to find that Unicron's body has given birth to so much richness of life. Studying their signals on approach he is also surprised how very similar that human life is to Transformer life. There are many Cybertronian signals here to track down. He thinks on the saying that "Journeys end in lovers meeting" and wonders who the "lovers" are as his journey ends here on Earth. He decides that Arcee and Bumblebee are the most sympathetic so he will give them missions that bring them close to humans so that they will make the inevitable first contact.

Alpha Trion notes that Prime's team eventually joins forces with the US government after building their base in Jasper, NV.

Optimus Prime — Prime talks about how he and Ratchet fought an army of Dark Energon zombies raised by Megatron. He speculates that the ancient Transformers were on Earth as archeologists searching for artifacts of the Thirteen. He says that though Megatron appears to be dead he does not believe their fight is over. He worries about Megatron's obsession with Unicron and about involving humans in the fight. He thinks again "Journeys end in lovers meeting."

Alpha Trion recounts Megatron's return and reconciliation with Starscream and how all the Cybertronian artifacts found on Earth and the Dark Energon used by Megatron awoke the sleeping Unicron.

Arcee — Waiting to attack Unicron, Arcee updates her Journal for the first time since coming to Earth. She talks about how fragile humans are and making friends with Jack, Miko and Raf. At first she was overcompensating for losing Cliffjumper and Tailgate, but now she's past that and still wants to protect Jack and Earth.

Optimus Prime — Prime recounts assaulting Unicron alongside Megatron. Missing the original Thirteen from their first assault but being proud of how Megatron stood against Unicron. (Prime remembers the human saying again.) The Matrix, holding the essence of all the Thirteen and a part of Primus' own spark was able to render Unicron a non-corporeal being, ending the threat. Prime recounts how he lost his memory and became Orion again and then regained it once more.

Alpha Trion tells briefly how, despite his efforts, Megatron gained the Forge of Solus Prime and stole the arm of Liege Maximo to let him forge a [[Dark Star Saber]]. He recounts all that happened after, the Star Saber breaking, the Omega Keys, the cloning of a new Predaking by Shockwave, the final fight on the Nemesis, Bumblebee's rebirth leading to Megatron's death, and Megatron's final return as a puppet of the disembodied Unicron. And Prime recovering the Allspark at last.

Optimus Prime — Prime remembers his deep despair seeing Bumblebee die and his relief as his friend returned and ended Megatron's threat. Then Prime found the Allspark. Journeys end in lovers meeting. Unicron's could not end until he reintegrated with Primus. Since they could not arrange that he came up with a new plan to use the Allsparks container. He remembered his siblings in the Thirteen as he made his choice. Prime recounts the surprise of Unicron as he was trapped forever. And meeting the eyes of Megatron as he rose, free at last, and both of them knowing that "the Journey" was over.

Sector D-16 — Megatron remembers his beginnings. Being nameless and condemned to the mines and wanting more. Seeing robots go into the debasing gladiator pits because it was their only option, and seeing in it a way to escape the oppression Form and Function government imposed. Choosing his name because what had Fallen might rise again. Meeting Orion Pax and feeling that they might balance one another and achieve their goals. Anger at "Optimus Prime" as only a new face of old oppression. The pleasure of righteous anger at being a victim. Seeing Pax being a "chosen one" meaning D16 was only a chosen miner. Falling for his own publicity, his ego growing beyond all bounds. Vanity supreme. And realizing, now, finally after being Unicron's puppet that he had fallen out of love with his own ego. His romantic vision of who he was had died. He wanted to be something more, new, better.

Back in the present Megatron denied Starscream's offer to escape and reform the Decepticons. He nodded to Optimus. "There is no peace through tyranny." he said quietly. Prime smiled and nodded back. Megatron and Starscream left in opposite directions.

At last Optimus explained to the remaining robots that his Spark was now joined to the Allspark and the only way to return it to the Well and revive Cybertron was for him to return it himself and his Spark with it. He told them that Megatron showed that there was hope for redemption for all and that this was not an end, but only a new transformation. Then he plunged into the Well.

The Well of All Sparks burst to life and light as thousands of Sparks of endless colors fountained up out of the Well and into the sky.

The gathered Transformers watched and decided that if it were up to them the Great War was now truly over at last. And they broadcast the news to the stars.

===Epilogue: Afterword===
Alpha Trion concludes the covenant's secrets, including the age of the Primes and the origins of Cybertron, but admits that not the whole story has been recorded and that it continues to write of time and space on Earth and all over the galaxy, giving the book to human hands so we would know more of our allies and enemies and how they came to be and to know that the Autobots would respond if we ever need them again.

He then bids us the last wish of the Thirteenth Prime, TILL ALL ARE ONE.

==Notes==

===Continuity errors===
{{note|The Foreword notes that the book is an abridging and rearrangement of only small pieces of the 'real' Covenant, all of it edited and even, Alpha Trion admits, sometimes outright altered in ways to improve human comprehension and promote empathy between the species. Consequently, the book has a self-admitted potential for 'unreliable narration'.}}

*A conflict of continuity leaves the final fate of Alpha Trion rather uncertain. According to the DVD Commentary track for ''[[Transformers: Prime (cartoon)|Transformers: Prime]]'' Season 3, of the episode "[[Rebellion (Prime)|Rebellion]]", Alpha Trion's appearance in Optimus's vision is a sign that Alpha Trion is "well and truly dead." However, if this is the case, then it would be impossible for Alpha Trion to have annotated or translated any part of the Covenant's sections in the Earthfall chapter which take place post-"Rebellion", such as the annotation about Bumblebee killing Megatron, or the events of ''Predacons Rising'' (unless he somehow did so from ''beyond the grave'', if that's even possible). To make matters even worse, outside of the commentary track, there is no mention either in the show, or in the Covenant, detailing what, if anything, happened to Alpha Trion (other than the Covenant's general implicit implication of his continued existence).
*In accordance with the ''Prime'' cartoon, Alpha Trion notes on page 133 that he launched the Star Saber (among other relics) into space. However, on page 151, he refers to having disseminated the Saber's "broken parts." This is the only reference to the sword being broken in the entire book, with no explanation for how it wound up in this state, or how it was repaired. This seems to be an erroneous holdover from the novel ''[[Transformers: Exiles]]'', which was apparently written with the intent that the Saber had been shattered (a plot element taken from the [[Transformers Collectors' Club]] storyline that introduced the sword to Transformers fiction) but which was clumsily edited to remove this fact when the intact sword appeared in the ''Prime'' cartoon.
*Despite being left on Archon with no way of returning to Cybertron, a bot that somewhat resembles Bluestreak was present during the Great War, if the illustrations are anything to go by.
*The Exodus Chapter seems to conflate the two separate characters of Makeshift and Axer from the ''Exiles'' novel into a single being. As there's no real reason to do this it seems more likely to have been an error then an intentional retcon.
*The section describing Shockwave's creation of the Dinobots presents a rather...''unique'' interpretation of Shockwave than what we have been presented previously in ''Aligned'', especially in his relation to the Dinobots. Instead of the typical logic-obsessed emotionless mad-scientist, we get a Shockwave that is rather bubbly and disconnected from reality, something of a twisted father. He considers the Dinobots his children and is described as being "fond" of them, even calling Grimlock "my boy" as he excitedly explains to him the changes he is making to his body (while Grimlock snarls and writhes in pain). It's odd, to say the least.
*Prowl mysteriously appears in the final section of the Earthfall chapter, detailing the end of ''Predacons Rising''. The other characters react to his presence as if nothing is wrong with his sudden commentary, which would only make sense if Prowl was present for the entirety of the events of ''Predacons Rising'', which he clearly was not. Prowl's last appearance in the Covenant was during the Exodus chapter, after which he is never made reference to again. It's possible the text meant to refer to Knock Out or Smokescreen instead.

===Continuity notes===
*The events surrounding the end of the Thirteen's original era, as presented here, differ significantly in several major details from what was related (also by Alpha Trion) in the [[Alex Irvine]] novels. In the novels the betrayal of Megatronus seems to be closer to the fall of his Multiversal self and the scheme of the Liege Maximo is portrayed as a separate, later event. Even more divergent is the final fate of the Liege, who here is killed by his own monstrous creations and the Requiem Blaster, while in the novels Alpha talks about his escaping justice after his betrayal and fleeing into deep space. In that version Alchemist Prime later leaves Cybertron to hunt the Liege down among the stars. The difference might be explained as a result of the unreliable narrator here mentioned above or as purposeful misinformation presented there to hide/erase the truth of the Thirteen's story.
*Similarly, Chapter 8's scene of Soundwave speaking out against his fellow High Councilors before storming off and quitting the High Council is very clearly [[authorial intent|intended]] to be the moment that he decided to take his vow of silence that was first mentioned in the ''Prime'' episode "[[Scattered]]" as an explanation for why Soundwave usually does not speak in that cartoon when he did speak quite regularly in the three Aligned novels and the ''War for Cybertron'' and ''Fall of Cybertron'' video games. However, said scene in this book is set long ''before'' when the events of those novels and video games take place in the greater Aligned timeline. But, there is some wiggle room for this moment to ''not'' actually be when Soundwave decides to stop speaking for good after all since the scene is written from Alpha Trion's already-admitted stance as a potentially unreliable narrator and features the specific wording of "From that moment forward, '''to my knowledge''', he has not uttered a single word of his own." This would enable Soundwave to continue speaking during the events of the novels and video games without Alpha Trion, personally, ever knowing about it, and allows for Soundwave's vow of silence to instead come at a later point (whenever that would be is not known).
*The Chapter on the Great War conflates and reorders events from the ''[[Transformers: War for Cybertron (games)|War for Cybertron]]'' and ''[[Transformers: Fall of Cybertron|Fall of Cybertron]]'' games, as well as Alex Irvine's ''[[Transformers: Exodus|Exodus]]'' novel.
*The Covenant is surprisingly silent on the fates of the ''Ark'' and the rest of its crew beyond the cast of ''Transformers: Prime'', as well as how Optimus and his small remaining crew came to leave them and settle on Earth.

===Real-world references===
*The phrase "What have the Quintessons ever done for us?" after rattling off a long list of technological and sociological feats is a reference to a similar joke in ''[[w:Monty Python's Life of Brian|Monty Python's Life of Brian]]''.

'''Sideswipe''' is not nearly as much of a sociopath as his [[Relatives|brother]] [[Sunstreaker (G1)|Sunstreaker]], but he is every bit as skillful. He's more into battle for the sport of it. A bit of a jock, Sideswipe most craves a glorious fight to the finish as a test of his mettle.

With a little reckless edge in his tactics, Sideswipe makes rash decisions that may endanger him, all in the name of possible victory. When everything is on the line, nothing is out of the question for Sideswipe, even cheating. Although his reckless attitude has not changed over time, his cause has: once in it solely for the glory, he's now driven by the desire to defend freedom and the innocent.

Sideswipe, along with his brother Sunstreaker, was part of the original crew of [[Optimus Prime (G1)/Marvel Comics continuity|Optimus Prime]]'s [[Ark (G1)|Ark]]. When the [[Decepticon]]s attacked the ship, it crashed on [[Earth]], and Sideswipe, along with the rest of the combatants, lay dormant for 4 million years. When the [[Mount St. Hilary|volcano]] that housed the Ark erupted, the Ark's internal mechanisms revived all Transformers, making no distinction between [[Autobot]] and Decepticon. Sideswipe was alive again. {{storylink|The Transformers (issue)|The Transformers}}

When the Autobots went to retrieve their fallen comrade [[Bumblebee (G1)/Marvel Comics continuity|Bumblebee]] from [[Sparkplug Witwicky]]'s [[S.

Against his brother's better judgment, Sideswipe employed his [[Transformer fuel|fuel]]-gobbling [[Jet pack|rocket backpack]] to take the fight right to the Decepticon jets, blinding [[Thundercracker (G1)/Marvel Comics continuity|Thundercracker]] with his [[flare gun]]. The 'Cons were driven off, but without a source of fuel to recharge on, several Autobots, including Sideswipe, were left virtually empty after the battle. {{storylink|Power Play!}} Having sustained some damage during the battle, Sideswipe rode along with [[Hound (G1)|Hound]] in Optimus Prime's trailer back to the Ark to conserve fuel. {{storylink|Prisoner of War!}}

''While the Autobots busied themselves repairing the Ark, [[Brawn (G1)|Brawn]] was subjected to a violent electrical feedback. This shock altered his mind, and he lashed out towards his fellow Autobots. Among his victims was Sideswipe, who was man-handled by his erratic comrade, leaving him confused as to whether it had been something he had said which had sent Brawn into a rage. Sideswipe and the Autobots tracked Brawn down as he rampaged through a nearby town, and managed to return him to normal with another electrical shock. Unfortunately, they had no proof that he was his old self, and Brawn was put through [[Trial by Combat|trial by combat]] against [[Starscream (G1)/Marvel Comics continuity|Starscream]] to prove his loyalties. Sideswipe was depressed when he thought that the duel had ended with Brawn's demise, only to be overjoyed to see him intact afterwards, his death having been a ruse orchestrated by [[Mirage (G1)/Marvel Comics continuity|Mirage]] and Optimus.'' {{storylink|The Enemy Within!}} ''Though he could not go on missions, Sideswipe was still able to defend the Ark from invasion when the Decepticons came right to his doorstep. He was confronted by that junk-punk [[Rumble (G1)|Rumble]]'s earthquake-making ability and turned the tables on him, overpowering Rumble with his pile-driver punches.'' {{storylink|Raiders of the Last Ark}} ''At some point, he helped protect [[Sherman Dam]] from some Decepticons, although the Autobots were ultimately unsuccessful at preventing its destruction. Sideswipe and his teammates raced ahead of the resulting flood in order to evacuate a nearby town before the waters reached it. In his vehicle mode, Sideswipe transported many humans to safety, racing against [[Jazz (G1)/Marvel Comics continuity|Jazz]] all the while.'' {{storylink|Decepticon Dam-Busters!}}

Sideswipe was present when it was discovered that the human [[Sparkplug Witwicky]] had given the Decepticons the fuel they needed to defeat the Autobots. Soon afterwards he was interred into one of the Ark's [[Tubes of Transference]], using his fuel to bolster the power of Optimus Prime, [[Huffer (G1)|Huffer]], [[Ironhide (G1)/Marvel Comics continuity|Ironhide]], [[Bluestreak (G1)|Bluestreak]] and Mirage as the Autobots' last line of defence. Although they were able to defeat [[Megatron (G1)/Marvel Comics continuity|Megatron]]'s forces, they didn't count on the reappearance of [[Shockwave (G1)/Marvel Comics continuity|Shockwave]], who took over the Ark and deactivated all the Autobots in the ship. {{storylink|The Last Stand}} Along with his fellow Autobots, Sideswipe was left hanging from the Ark's ceiling like a slab of beef. {{storylink|The New Order}} Upon infiltrating the Ark, [[Ratchet (G1)/Marvel Comics continuity|Ratchet]] beheld his fellow Autobot in this sad state. {{storylink|Warrior School!}} After the medic regained control of the Ark for the Autobots, he was able to revive Sideswipe to full functionality in short order, and their new deal for fuel with [[G.B. Blackrock]] kept them energized. {{storylink|DIS-Integrated Circuits!}} He was ''possibly'' part of the group of Autobots who battled [[Devastator (G1)|Devastator]] when [[Soundwave (G1)/Marvel Comics continuity|Soundwave]] and the newly built [[Constructicon (G1)|Constructicons]] assembled a [[transdimensional radiowave scrambler]] to contact Cybertron. Though the Autobots managed to destroy the scrambler, The Decepticons managed to get most of their message through to Cybertron nonetheless. {{storylink|The Next Best Thing to Being There!}}

[[File:PrimeTime-Sideswipe.jpg|thumb|left|upright=0.85|So you've read my profile.]]
Though Shockwave was ultimately evicted from the Ark, he still had Optimus Prime's head held captive in his [[Blackrock Aerospace Assembly Plant Number One|Blackrock Aerospace Plant headquarters]]. When the Autobots overheard that Optimus Prime's head had outlived its usefulness and would be disposed of, Sideswipe was part of the large group of Autobots who departed the Ark to rendezvous with the drop-off point. {{storylink|Brainstorm!}} Sure enough, the Decepticon drone [[Jetfire (G1)|Jetfire]] approached with the head, though Sideswipe initially proposed blowing it out of the sky. [[Prowl (G1)/Marvel Comics continuity|Prowl]]'s caution at first seemed prudent, as Jetfire dropped Prime's head into the swamp in front of them, but their minds changed after they waded into the swamp, retrieved the head, and placed it on Prime's body. The head was in fact a Decepticon decoy that took control of Prime's body and attacked them. On top of that, a strike team led by Soundwave quickly joined them, and Sideswipe soon found himself at the mercy of [[Ravage (G1)/Marvel Comics continuity|Ravage]], who began tearing out his back with his jaws. Fortunately for the Autobots, Prime's real head was returned, and Sideswipe was one of first to rise from the onslaught to witness their costly victory. {{storylink|Prime Time!}} ''These events were observed by the [[time travel]]ling [[Dicet Alpha-zero]].'' {{storylink|The Quest!}}

[[File:Sideswipe dinobot hunt.jpg|thumb|upright=0.9]]
''Sideswipe was aboard the Ark when it came under attack by a flying Transformer—the missing [[Swoop (G1)/Marvel Comics continuity|Swoop]] who had fallen under the control of the human [[Peter Anthony Morris|Professor Morris]]. After attempting to restrain Swoop using non-lethal force, the Autobots discovered that Swoop's primary [[cybo-dendron]]s had burnt out during his years in the tar pit, meaning that all the Dinobots were due to going berserk.'' {{storylink|The Icarus Theory}} ''During the subsequent Dinobot Hunt, Sideswipe traveled to [[Doonstown]] with Huffer and Bluestreak on a mission to capture the feral [[Grimlock (G1)/Marvel Comics continuity|Grimlock]]. They proved unable to subdue their quarry, and were left battered and beaten in the ruins of the town.'' {{storylink|Dinobot Hunt!}}

''On a mission to build friendly relations with the people of [[Pinewoodsville]], Sideswipe and several other Autobots were hit with a strange blast of energy that reversed their personalities. The group rampaged through the town, ruining months of goodwill work. Tracking the source of the blast to England, the Autobots flew overseas to put an end to what they assumed was a Decepticon plot. But the Decepticons had also been affected by the blast, and were likewise tracking its origin. Sideswipe, Prowl, Jazz, and Mirage holed up inside Optimus's trailer to conserve energy, but were shaken out of their hiding spot by Starscream, just as another personality-reversing blast hit the group. Optimus was sent crashing into a tree off the road, and his troops began calling for a violent mutiny. Sideswipe was the first to return to his senses, just in time to stop Jazz from executing their leader. Nonetheless, Optimus was left too banged-up to carry on with the mission; he hid in a tunnel while his troops soldiered on. The culprit behind the energy blasts turned out to be a human invention, the "[[Purnel's Auto-Reverse Defence|PARD]]." It was destroyed, along with [[Zeke Heilmann|a spy]] trying to steal it, after Starscream battled Jazz over both. With the threat neutralized, the Autobots carried Optimus back to their UK Base, where Ratchet was waiting to fix him up.'' {{storylink|To a Power Unknown!}}

Sideswipe was next seen in Ratchet's repair bay along with several others. Ratchet remarked to Optimus Prime that some of them might never be battle-capable again. Optimus Prime told him to do his best for Sideswipe and the others, and then promptly left to oversee the creation of their replacements. {{storylink|Rock and Roll-Out!}}

Years later, Sideswipe was seen again on board the Ark when the new Autobot leader Grimlock threatened the lives of some [[Spacehikers|human children]] to smoke out the "traitor" [[Blaster (G1)|Blaster]]. {{storylink|Spacehikers!}} Soon after, he left the Ark with the rest of its crew to watch the battle between Blaster and Grimlock on Earth's [[Moon (moon)|moon]]. The assembled Autobot forces were attacked during the duel, a devastating first blow bringing down several of them. Blaster and Grimlock were able to put aside their differences long enough to drive off [[Ratbat (G1)|Ratbat]]'s forces however, and Sideswipe was among those still standing in the aftermath. {{storylink|Totaled!}} He also joined the Autobots in answering a distress signal sent by [[Buster Witwicky (G1)|Buster Witwicky]] near the Decepticons' [[Arctic]] [[Club Con|base]], resulting in an ambush. {{storylink|Dark Star}}

====Marvel ''Generation 2'' comic====

During a conflict with the lingering forces of Bludgeon, Sideswipe and the Autobots were rushed off-world by the [[Guardian (G2)|guardian]] of an ancient civilization. {{storylink|Ghosts}}

The war seemingly over, Sideswipe joined the [[Firestormer]]s, a group of Autobots who aimed to hunt down the last few pockets of Decepticon resistance. He, [[Broadside (G1)|Broadside]], [[Hound (G1)|Hound]], [[Blades (G1)|Blades]], and the [[Dinobot (G1)|Dinobots]] attacked Decepticon [[Nexus Seven|Outpost B-67]], where they met [[Outpost B-67 exo-structuring party|great numbers]] but minimal resistance. He expected the liberated citizens of Nexus Seven to be more grateful, but Hound pointed out that their rescuees looked more frightened than pleased, and blamed their group's bloodthirstiness.

[[File:WarWithoutEnd-Sideswipe.jpg|left|thumb|upright=1.66|Black is the new "I have more words in this single panel than I did in the past 80 issues."]]
But the Firestormers' quest led them to the staggering discovery that these scattered Decepticon outposts were actually just the tip of the iceberg. There were just seventeen conquered and recolonized planets in that sector of space, suggesting that there was something bigger on the horizon than the remnants of [[Bludgeon (G1)|Bludgeon]]'s old team. After [[Optimus Prime (G1)/Marvel Comics continuity|Optimus Prime]] was called to hear this news from Sideswipe and the other Firestormers, they were suddenly attacked and captured by a ship in orbit. Sideswipe and the others were put in prison cells aboard the starship ''[[Twilight (G2)|Twilight]]'', which was under the command of [[Jhiaxus (G2)|Jhiaxus]], the [[Liege Centuro]] of a forgotten race of Transformers. This revelation momentarily shook Optimus Prime's resolve, but after being brought back to his senses by [[Grimlock (G1)/Marvel Comics continuity|Grimlock]], the two Autobots freed Sideswipe and the others from their cells. They fought their way through the starship to an escape vessel and escaped without injury, though they were burdened with this new knowledge. {{storylink|War Without End!}}

Sideswipe was present when the Autobots met Jhiaxus's Decepticons in battle on a planet within the [[K'tord Nebula]]. At first, tempers merely flared, but soon both sides lost themselves in a violent, bloody rage. Before they were completely lost to their baser instincts, the source of their behavior was discovered to be tar-like emotional parasites. The parasites were removed, and both factions decided to leave peacefully. {{storylink|Primal Fear!}}

[[File:Sideswipe grimlock devices and desires.jpg|thumb|upright=0.5|Chin cleft added to ensure badassery.]]
Grimlock, disobeying Optimus Prime's orders, led a covert team onto the [[Cybertronian (faction)|Cybertronian Empire]] ship ''[[Twilight (G2)|Twilight]]'' to defeat [[Jhiaxus (G2)|Jhiaxus]] and his army of "evolved Decepticons". Sideswipe was wary of their plan to steal a ship and slip on board, but Grimlock assured him that the plan was foolproof. Grimlock changed his tune when they soon learned that they were led into a trap, resulting in [[Red Alert (G1)|Red Alert]]'s death and the Autobots' capture. Sideswipe and the others were rounded up onto a shuttle to be inspected by the [[Liege Maximo]], but managed to escape their fate with assistance from Optimus Prime. {{storylink|Devices and Desires! (Marvel)|Devices and Desires!}}

Later, while Optimus Prime and [[Megatron (G1)/Marvel Comics continuity|Megatron]] were discussing an alliance against Jhiaxus's Cybertronians, Sideswipe interrupted to tell them that they had received a distress signal from the planet [[Ethos]]. {{storylink|Escalation!|Tales of Earth Part Five}} Sure enough, upon arrival, the Autobots found an advanced civilization in ruins, but managed to repel the Cybertronians thanks to their new Decepticon allies. {{storylink|Escalation!}}

Finally, Jhiaxus took the full force of his Empire to [[Earth]], where the Autobot/Decepticon alliance had camped. Sideswipe joined them in shooting their attackers out of the sky as they approached. {{storylink|Total War!}}

Years later, Sideswipe was part of [[Jazz (G1)/Marvel Comics continuity|Jazz]]'s Special Commando Unit, summoned to Earth along with Optimus Prime by [[Grimlock (G1)/Marvel Comics continuity|Grimlock]] when [[Bludgeon (G1)|Bludgeon]] began open war on the humans. Prime decided to go after Bludgeon himself, and he assigned Jazz, Sideswipe and [[Skram (G2)|Skram]] to take down one Decepticon strike team at a time because the Decepticon forces were spread very thin. While still in [[alternate mode|vehicle mode]], Sideswipe shot [[Flamefeather (G1)|Flamefeather]] in the crotch, then transformed and hoped aloud that Prime would be okay in the face of Bludgeon's mysterious powers. {{storylink|War Without End (issue)|War Without End}}

When the [[Skyscorcher]]s left in the middle of battle, Jazz concluded they had another target to go after—which he and Sideswipe simultaneously realized to be Optimus Prime! The Skyscorchers had ''actually'' left to go after Bludgeon's enemy Megatron, whom Sideswipe and his comrades helped shoot at when they arrived in the middle of a fight between the one-time Decepticon leader, Prime, and the [[Dinobot (G1)|Dinobots]]. Following Megatron's retreat, Sideswipe helped secure prisoners and weapons for withdrawal to the [[Autobase]] hidden on Earth's moon. {{storylink|War Zone}}

Sunstreaker and Sideswipe joined Optimus Prime's crew on Earth after Megatron resurfaced. They braved the Ark's defenses in order to break inside and recover their lost comrade, Ratchet. Sideswipe unsealed him from the [[CR chamber]] Megatron had left the medic in, and together the twins carried him away to safety. {{storylink|At Fight's End}}

Subsequently, Sideswipe was stationed with several other Autobots in [[Canada]] within the ''[[Ark II]]''. He was present one day when [[Rad (G1)|Rad]] reported from the [[Ironworks (facility)|Ironworks]] base in [[Oregon]] about a foiled attack by [[Overlord (G1)|Gigatron]] and his Decepticons. Soon thereafter, due to the actions of an evil [[Ultra Magnus (SG)|Ultra Magnus]] from [[Primax -408.24 Epsilon|another dimension]], a rift of space time opened over Earth, causing catastrophes worldwide.

{{main|Sideswipe (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity}}
An original member of the Autobots when they crash-landed on Earth, Sideswipe was a cool guy with jack-hammer arms, a rocket pack and little in the way of personality. Those accessories, though.

In a [[splinter timeline]] Sideswipe had more adventures, including one where he gained a new [[Binaltech]] body until [[time travel]] said otherwise. He continued serving the Autobots well into the year [[2011]], where he was stationed on both [[Athenia]] and Earth simultaneously, but nobody noticed. In the years that followed, he would mature and shed his rebellious nature, taking on covert missions out of a sense of duty rather than a desire to show off.

Their attack was ineffective, and they were blasted away by the mighty gestalt. {{storylink|Battle for Earth}}

[[File:Autobothuddle-ASW.jpeg|thumb|upright=1.0|left]]
Upon hearing that his "twin Autobot" had been captured by the Decepticons, Sideswipe flew into a rage and vowed to rescue Sunstreaker himself. [[Grimlock (G1)|Grimlock]] advised Sideswipe to take [[Sludge (G1)|Sludge]] and [[Slag (G1)|Slag]] with him, as they would surely encounter [[Devastator (G1)|Devastator]] within the Decepticons' headquarters. The three Autobots made their way towards Decepticon territory, encountering numerous traps along the road. Sideswipe was almost done in by a land mine, but managed to transform in time to avoid being seriously damaged. When the trio arrived at the Decepticon camp, another obstacle presented itself in the form of a duo of Decepticon guards. Making short work of these two, Sideswipe's group entered the Decepticon basewhere they came face-to-face against Devastator, as anticipated. Despite their best efforts, the Autobots were overpowered by Devastator, and put in a holding cell alongside Sunstreaker. Later, Megatron announced that the Autobots had agreed to surrender, and brought out his prisoner to look upon the Autobots' peace offering; a life-size statue of Devastator. The surrender turned out to be a ruse however, and Autobot reinforcements burst forth from within the Devastator statue. Sideswipe joined the battle between Autobots and Decepticons that followed. The Autobots were ultimately victorious, and Sideswipe was amongst the Autobots still standing in the aftermath. Optimus ordered his troops to gather the wounded, and the Autobots returned home. {{storylink|The Autobots' Secret Weapon}}

With Sparkplug acting as their referee, Sideswipe and Bluestreak raced one another in order to determine who was the fastest. The race ended in a tie, with Sparkplug declaring them both winners. Just then, Thundercracker and Starscream swooped down onto the trio, and cast [[Sleep Net]]s unto them, rendering them unconscious. Sideswipe was brought to Megatron's newly constructed prison, and was incarcerated within. Luckily, Bumblebee had not been captured, and managed to free the other Autobots. Upon their escape, Sideswipe and Bluestreak shot Starscream and Thundercracker out of the sky. {{storylink|Bumblebee to the Rescue!}}

Sideswipe was one of the many Autobots who prevented the Decepticons from killing Sparkplug and Buster on their latest attempt on the humans' lives. He later helped the Autobots protecting the Hoover Dam. {{storylink|The Deadly Fuel Shortage}}

Sideswipe kicked up some dust into Ravage's joints, paralyzing the Decepticons. The three Autobots managed to beat back the Decepticons and rescue Gears, who was fixed right up by Ratchet. {{storylink|The Autobot Smasher!}}

Sideswipe (or Sunstreaker) was part of a small strike team of Autobots assembled by Ultra Magnus to help the Dinobots, who were currently engaged in battle against the Decepticons, just outside of Autobot City.

Upon awakening on Earth after being offline for about 65 million years, Sideswipe met Sparkplug and his son Spike. With the Decepticons still not in the know of what forms the Autobots had taken, Sideswipe was one of the troops that Optimus led into the desert in order to ambush their enemies. Though they successfully took by surprise a squadron of Decepticons, the Autobots had not anticipated a second group flying in from the opposite direction. Thanks to a warning from Spike and Sparkplug, the Autobots managed to fend off the Decepticons, and came to accept Earth as their new home. {{storylink|Battle for Cybertron}}

Sideswipe ''really'' enjoyed fighting Decepticons. When the other Autobots went on a mission to rescue [[Grapple (G1)|Grapple]] from [[Insecticon (G1)|Insecticon]] mind control, Sideswipe was sure to remind them that beating Decepticons was very important too. {{storylink|Insecticon Attack!}}

Sideswipe was surprised to find himself accused of destroying the [[Nova Suspension Bridge]]. He claimed he was not guilty of the act, but with several eyewitnesses proclaiming otherwise and the Autobot-Human relations strained by the crime, Optimus Prime had no choice but to deactivate him. Prowl later discovered that the Sideswipe who had destroyed the bridge was in fact [[Sideswipe clone (G1)|a clone]] controlled by Megatron. He and a team returned to Autobot headquarters with the evidence necessary to clear Sideswipe's name, who was presumably reactivated afterwards. {{storylink|Deadly Paradise}}

Sideswipe was one of the group of Autobots who explored for energy in [[South America]], and engaged in a battle with the Decepticons on [[Mount Sheelah]] shortly before the volcano erupted. {{storylink|Terror of Mount Sheelah}} After a hard day's work repairing the [[Ark (G1)|Ark]], he and the other Autobots were relaxing and watching [[television]] when they learned the Decepticons had started kidnapping humans. Sideswipe favored mounting an attack, but it was pointed out that that would endanger the humans. {{storylink|Bumblebee to the Rescue (G1)|Bumblebee to the Rescue}}

Following the Decepticons to [[Stanley Lake]] dam, Sideswipe used his flare gun to lure them out in front of the dam. After a brief fight, the Autobots retreated and flooded the valley with water, washing the Decepticons away. {{Storylink|Menace at the Dam}} After [[Starscream (G1)|Starscream]] defected to the Autobots as a trick, Sideswipe showed him a box supposedly containing the [[Deuterium Orbital Laser Tracing System]].

He helped haul the unconscious quartet aboard for safe transport back to the Ark.

If Optimus Prime chose to immediately attack the Dinobots without a real plan, Sideswipe responded to Prime's order to, "Bring them down fast and hard," by blasting [[Grimlock (G1)|Grimlock]], who just wouldn't go down. He yelled to Sunstreaker for help, which he provided with a series of high-energy electron pulses, their combined attack ultimately knocking the Dinobot commander over and dislodging his cerebro-shell. {{storylink|Dinobots Strike Back}}

Before the war, Sideswipe was a trader who liked to con his customers. {{storylink|Transformers: The Ultimate Guide|The Ultimate Guide}} He was one of the few Autobots to continue operating under that title during the [[Dark Ages]] of Cybertron, after Optimus Prime and Megatron had both disappeared into a prototype space-bridge. {{storylink|Fragmentation (G1)|Fragmentation}} Sideswipe was one of the elite warriors serving under [[Prowl (G1)|Prowl]] and as such was chosen for the mission that sent him against the newly constructed Decepticon battle station, [[Trypticon (G1)|Trypticon]]. Though the Autobots believed they would be able to find the station before it was fully operational, Trypticon revealed himself to already be battle-ready. {{storylink|Devastation}} Despite throwing everything they had at the titan, the Autobots weren't able to even slow it down. Prowl ordered his troops to try and outrun Trypticon, which Sideswipe misinterpreted as meaning they would try to "run it in circles and then pop it one in the exhaust vent." Neither tactic worked in any case, and the Autobots were only spared because Trypticon suddenly received a transmission recalling him to the neutral zones, and broke off from the fight to respond to it. {{storylink|Revelation (The Dark Ages)|Revelation}} Sideswipe and his teammates returned to their headquarters for repairs, where Sideswipe received a communique from [[Swoop (G1)|Swoop]], explaining that both [[Grimlock (G1)|Grimlock]] and [[Jetfire (G1)|Jetfire]] had mysteriously vanished. The cause of these disappearances then made itself apparent, as [[The Fallen]] broke into the [[Autobase]] and abducted [[Blitzwing (G1)|Blitzwing]] from one of its holding cells. {{storylink|Confrontation (issue)|Confrontation}} Once The Fallen's base of operations was uncovered, Sideswipe joined a cross-faction army in rushing it to put an end to the ancient Transformer's scheme.

Sideswipe was part of Operation Liberation in 1998, a joint human-Autobot effort to defeat the Earth-bounded Decepticons. At the end it was a success, and the captured Decepticons along with the Autobots and a human crew departed Earth en route to Cybertron in the ''[[Ark II]]''. The ship, however, was sabotaged and exploded upon liftoff.

A few years later, Megatron and other Transformers, including Autobots, were seen causing havoc. It was discovered that [[Lazarus]], a scientist who participated in the ''Ark II'' project, was responsible for the sabotage of the ship and the resurrection of several Transformers under his control via technological tampering. {{storylink|Prime Directive issue 1|Prime Directive #1}}

[[Robert Hallo|General Hallo]] of the [[United States military|US military]] contacted [[Spike Witwicky (G1)|Spike Witwicky]] to ask him if he could do something to help them reactivate Optimus Prime, whom they had recovered locked in a state of stasis.

Sideswipe accepted the new task at hand and fought alongside his brother when the Autobots faced the Decepticons at Lazarus' ruined base (punching Starscream in the face for attacking Wheeljack) before Hallo betrayed the Autobots by attempting to destroy both factions with a nuclear weapon. {{storylink|Prime Directive issue 3|Prime Directive #3}} The Autobots survived when Megatron's technovirus absorbed the blast, and Sideswipe helped his comrades recover the captive Autobots imprisoned inside the base.

As Jazz's unit worked on Megatron's virus, Sideswipe followed Optimus Prime to [[San Francisco]] for the last battle against Megatron and his Decepticons. {{storylink|Prime Directive issue 4|Prime Directive #4}} When [[Superion (G1)|Superion]] was taken down, Sideswipe and Sunstreaker heroically (though foolishly) charged at [[Devastator (G1)|Devastator]], and they were smashed between the giant Constructicon's palms for their trouble. After Optimus Prime brought Devastator down with a blast to the head, Sideswipe was restrained by the surviving Decepticons. {{storylink|Prime Directive issue 5|Prime Directive #5}} However, through [[human]] intervention, Optimus Prime freed his Autobots and the battle was rejoined. Sideswipe tag-teamed with his brother to pummel [[Soundwave (G1)|Soundwave]], though the Decepticons eventually escaped when Superion sacrificed his life to save the city from General Hallo's unauthorized nuclear missile launch. {{storylink|Prime Directive issue 6|Prime Directive #6}}

''Months later, after Optimus Prime, Megatron, and an assortment of other Transformers and humans vanished in a flash of light from Tokyo, Japan, the world went on high alert. When the U.S. military detected [[Starscream (G1)|Starscream]] in the Nevada canyons, Sideswipe accompanied a flight of jets in confronting the Decepticon. Their battle led down a tight box canyon, and Sideswipe had some difficulty chasing Starscream while also coordinating with his military wingmen, as he tried to limit the human casualties. Eventually, Sideswipe was led straight into Devastator, who had been hiding in the canyon on Starscream's order. The combined surprise firepower of Starscream's arsenal and a near-pointblank blast from Devastator's solar energy rifle left Sideswipe in several charred pieces. {{storylink|Transformers: Hardwired|Hardwired}}''

''Sideswipe was eventually repaired by [[Ratchet (G1)|Ratchet]], and returned to duty just in time to fight in Nevada once more. This time, the Autobots and Decepticons had joined forces against an ambush arranged by the President of the United States, who hoped to rid his country of the Transformers. Sideswipe waded through General [[Michelle Grajkowski]]'s troops, heavily routing her Delta Team, but the [[deconstructionite]] weapons being used by the U.S. Armed Forces were too much of a surprise for the Cybertronians—they were clearly on the losing end of the battle as many of their number fell before the severity of the weaponized nanites became evident. Sideswipe and Prowl helped load the injured Autobots into Prime's trailer as they made their getaway. {{storylink|Transformers: Fusion|Fusion}}''

[[File:G1 Sideswipe Sunstreaker DWissue7.jpg|left|upright=0.85|thumb|Hi, I'm a jock.]]
The Autobots were entrenched against Megatron's forces when agents from the united Cybertron led by Shockwave arrived on Earth. Despite using his pile-drivers to send some of these attackers for a tumble, Sideswipe found himself severely overpowered by the newcomers, along with the rest of the Autobots. He and the others retreated as the Decepticons were taken in as war criminals. Optimus Prime split his forces so that their wounded could be tended to while a small scouting party was sent out to investigate further Shockwave and his followers. Sideswipe was among those who returned to the Ark, where the Autobots discussed whether they could take Shockwave's word at face value. {{storylink|New World Order}} As Prime and many other Autobots traveled back to Cybertron with Shockwave, [[Ultra Magnus (G1)|Ultra Magnus]] and their crew, Sideswipe and Sunstreaker remained on Earth with several other Autobots under Jazz's command. {{storylink|Brothers' Burden}}

After the end of Shockwave's despotic rule over Cybertron, the Autobots on Cybertron made contact with Sideswipe's crew for an update and promised to send supplies. {{storylink|Generation 1 issue 0|Generation 1 #0}} Unfortunately, Starscream arrived on Earth first, backed up by a small cadre of soldiers. Sideswipe and company managed to stave off an initial attack from the Decepticons, only for Starscream to unleash his trump card on the battlefield: [[Bruticus (G1)|Bruticus]]. Sideswipe was deactivated in battle with the combiner, and was left to rust at the bottom of a lake. {{storylink|Night of the Combaticons}} [[Warpath (G1)|Warpath]] and [[Bumper (G1)|Bumper]] later dredged him and the others up, only to be taken into custody by [[Earth Defense Command]]. {{storylink|The Omega Effect}} The Autobots were then taken to a secret underground facility by the humans. {{storylink|Atonement}} Jazz, Sideswipe, and Sunstreaker were reactivated to help [[Marissa Faireborn]] and [[EDC Night Force Unit|her team]] in investigating several mysterious disappearances (with extraterrestrial involvement suspected) in small-town America. During their trip out into the field, Sideswipe game the much less experienced [[Bumper (G1)|Bumper]] a hard time for his fretting and worrying, but rushed to the little guy's rescue after he was attacked within the town's movie theater. As he did so, the Autobots found out what they were dealing with was an outbreak of [[Insecticon (G1)|Insecticons]]. {{storylink|Infestation (Dreamwave)|Infestation}} Sideswipe and Sunstreaker wound up in an underground hatching chamber, filled with Insecticon eggs. Wandering about while his brother contemplated the hatchery, Sideswipe came upon some fully-grown Insecticon clones and attacked them... only to inadvertently blind himself by bringing down a wall, allowing light to flood in and overwhelm his night-vision. Though Sunstreaker came to his rescue, the two brother wound up prisoners of the Insecticons nonetheless. Thankfully, Bumper, who had since found his courage, freed Sideswipe and Sunstreaker in time for them to participate in their team's last stand against the enemy swarm. Sideswipe took out Shrapnel in the fight by toppling an entire building atop of him. But the conflict culminated with the Autobots against an enemy they couldn't just beat down: the mind-controlled townspeople. Bumper once more came to his team's rescue by downing Bombshell, disabling his mind-control network over the town, allowing an Autobot victory. {{storylink|Extermination}}

After routing and capturing the Decepticons, Sideswipe and the other Autobots said their goodbyes to their EDC and departed in the ''Orion''. {{storylink|Lost and Found (issue)|Lost and Found}} Afterwards, they joined up with the returning team from Cybertron under Prowl's command, and began construction of [[Autobot City (G1)|Autobot City]]. {{storylink|The Route of All Evil}}

[[Unicron]] abducted these newly returned Transformers, in addition to many others from different times and universes, to start a final confrontation against [[Primus]]. Sideswipe and Sunstreaker were rebuilt into new forms, {{storylink|Abduction}} corrupted by Unicron's influence, and set against one another in the [[Cauldron]].

Sideswipe and Sunstreaker were rebuilt into Cobra [[Stinger (G.I.

The two brothers didn't succeed in their mission, though, as they were rammed aside by [[Wheeljack (G1)|Wheeljack]] while charging at the building and were eventually ordered to retreat. {{storylink|G.I.

===2019 IDW continuity===
Sideswipe was forged after the [[War of the Threefold Spark]]. Joining [[Security Operations]] when he reached maturity, his eagerness to fight rubbed some of the war veterans the wrong way. {{storylink|The Change In Your Nature Part Two}}

In the wake of [[Brainstorm (G1)|Brainstorm]]'s murder, [[Barricade (IDW)|Barricade]] and Sideswipe were tracking possible members of [[The Rise]]. {{storylink|The World In Your Eyes Part Three}}

[[File:TheCracksBeneathYourFeetPartThree SideswipeThermalLance.jpg|thumb|left|upright=2.1]]
When [[Cyclonus (G1)|Cyclonus]] crashed into Security Operations headquarters, Sideswipe came running, thinking a bomb had gone off. When the veteran revealed the existence of a Rise base beneath the [[Memorial Crater]], [[Chromia (G1)|Chromia]] told an overeager Sideswipe to open the armory. {{storylink|The Cracks Beneath Your Feet Part Two}} Arriving at the crater with Chromia and [[Windblade (G1)|Windblade]], Sideswipe salivated over the weapons he'd brought with him before Chromia dropped down into the base. Left on the surface, Sideswipe chatted up Windblade before [[Flamewar (G1)|Flamewar]] made herself known and one-upped Sideswipe's [[thermal lance]]. Quickly recovering, Sideswipe engaged the Riser in a duel before she took her leave, an act that heralded the base's violent death. {{storylink|The Cracks Beneath Your Feet Part Three}} Retreating to headquarters, Sideswipe was tended to by [[Flatline (G1)|Flatline]] whom he griped to about Flamewar's choice of insult, she'd called him "Slowswipe", with the doctor feeling he should get his priorities straight. {{storylink|The Cracks Beneath Your Feet Part Four}}

When [[Sentinel Prime (G1)|Sentinel Prime]] returned to Cybertron, he sent out literally every Security Operations agent to root out the Rise. Partnered with [[Springer (G1)|Springer]], Sideswipe patrolled the regions around [[Crystal City]] before an alert came in from an [[energon processing station]]. Springer quickly changed to copter mode to reach the crime scene leaving Sideswipe to catch up on the ground, finding Springer having been made a fool of. As the [[Triple Changer]] picked himself up, he told Sideswipe to call in everyone. The duo trailed the group to a [[Titan (group)|Titan]] corpse in the [[Cybertronian Mountains]] but quickly found the aggressors' superior firepower put them at a disadvantage. {{storylink|The Change In Your Nature Part One}}

When reinforcements arrived, Sideswipe took up a sniping position, being backed up by [[Kup (G1)|Kup]] and [[Strongarm (G1)|Strongarm]], his lust for violence quickly earning Kup's ire. After [[Javelin]] had been struck, [[Flak (G1)|Flak]] fired a harassment barrage providing cover for Sideswipe who planted explosive charges on one of the Titan's airlocks. While [[Kaskade]] was knocked down, [[Lowload]] recovered quickly, using his drill tank mode to harass Kup and Strongarm. Sideswipe tackled the brute from behind, planting a grenade on him, but the wounded Riser managed to retreat back inside the Titan. Grumbling, Sideswipe requested heavier artillery. {{storylink|The Change In Your Nature Part Two}}

[[File:WarWorldPrime SideswipeSavesBumper.jpg|thumb|right|upright=1.2]]
After the [[Tether]] had collapsed, Sideswipe helped clear debris from the [[A'ovan habitat]] where he requested a transfer into [[Hound (G1)|Hound]]'s new counterterrorism unit only to be shot down. Joining up with [[Prowl (G1)|Prowl]]'s unit as they prepared for a raid on [[Swindle's]], Sideswipe took up position on a nearby rooftop, Sideswipe tackled [[Storm Cloud (G1)|Storm Cloud]], downing him with his thermal lance and allowing Security Operations to take him into custody. {{storylink|Rise of the Decepticons: Swindle's|Swindle's}}

When the Decepticons revealed themselves and seized the [[Senate]] building, Sideswipe was part of the operation to retake it. Under Prowl's command again, he complimented Javelin's return to action after her injury and stood ready with the rest of his team to provide cover fire for anyone escaping the Senate building. After [[Clench (G1)|Clench]] turned a [[rail gun]] on the Autobots, Sideswipe moved in to rescue [[Bumper (G1)|Bumper]], who had been shot. Sideswipe took heavy damage carrying the wounded Bumper out of the line of fire. {{storylink|War World: Prime|Prime}}

They both recovered and were soon back on security duty with Strongarm in [[Crystal City]], watching over an experiment [[Perceptor (G1)|Perceptor]] performed involving [[Jumpstream]]. After having saved his life, Sideswipe now found Bumper annoyingly eager to impress him, and told the rookie to make a perimeter sweep of the building. Once Bumper ran off, Strongarm pointed out his obvious hero worship of Sideswipe, which Sideswipe seemed oblivious to. She told him he was a role model now, something Sideswipe didn't think he was cut out for. Before they could discuss it further, Jumpstream materialized before them briefly, Perceptor's new [[teleportation]] rig suffering a malfunction. {{storylink|Lord of Misrule: Test Flight I|Test Flight I}}

Optimus eventually recovered, and as they prepared a ship to return to Earth, Sideswipe and his team defended it against the [[Insecticon swarm]]. The Autobots eventually reached Earth and retook it from the Decepticons. {{storylink|All Hail Megatron (Legends)|All Hail Megatron}}

Sideswipe had by far the fastest vehicle mode among the Autobots under Optimus's command. His fighting style was oriented toward melee combat over ranged. His overdrive ability let him dash forward with temporary invulnerability, while his ultimate attack allowed him to use his shoulder-mounted rocket launcher for a short time to attack enemies. He possessed two unique weapons- "Sideswipe's Swords" and a Flaregun that functioned as a short-range flamethrower. Like his fellow Autobot Bumblebee, he wasn't strong enough to use heavy weapons such as most missile and grenade launchers available to the Autobots.

==Notes==
[[File: G1toon_sideswipes_pistons.jpg|right|thumb|upright=1.75|I wanna bee-heee... your jackhammer!]]
*Sideswipe's first ''Transformers'' toy was originally intended to be an Autobot-aligned release of the red version of the ''[[Diaclone]]'' toy "No. 1 Countach LP500S", alongside his brother, then named "Spinout", as a yellow "No. 15 New Countach LP500S" — that is to say, Sideswipe was supposed to look like a red Sunstreaker, and Sunstreaker was supposed to look like a yellow Sideswipe. This notion survived long enough into production that the original [[Production bible|series bible]] and his published ''[[The Transformers Universe]]'' bio describe Sideswipe with features of ''Sunstreaker's'' toy. During development, the characters had their molds swapped, but ''not'' their colors, making the yellow Countach Sunstreaker and the red New Countach Sideswipe that we know today. This whole shebang resulted in discrepancies such as Sideswipe being noted for his [[jet pack]] (in reality, Sunstreaker's vehicle mode exposed engine) and Sunstreaker's red shoulder stickers (which were intended to match with an otherwise red toy). In the decades since, Hasbro and TakaraTomy have been inducting old ''Diaclone'' colorways into ''Transformers''dom; the characters of [[Spin-Out (G1)|Spin-Out]] and [[Tigertrack]] are modern updates of the toys that were intended for Sideswipe and Sunstreaker respectively.
*Sideswipe's piston arms (apparently derived from the "rocket booster" missiles of the Sunstreaker toy) didn't have a model sheet drawn up for them, so every time they appeared in the [[The Transformers (cartoon)|Generation 1 cartoon]], they looked different (as illustrated at right). First, in "[[S.O.S. Dinobots]]," they were immobile stumps; then, in "[[A Plague of Insecticons]]," they appeared as broad and flat and operated by pumping back and forth, only to change shape between scenes, being replaced with long, tubular constructs; and for their final appearance in "[[Dinobot Island, Part 2]]", they resembled the tip of a pneumatic drill. Sideswipe uses a hand-held jackhammer in "[[Fire on the Mountain (episode)|Fire on the Mountain]]," apparently the result of the animators misinterpreting the script's direction for him to use his piston arms.
**Most of these designs have been realized in toy form: the first "A Plague of Insecticons" design came with ''[[The Transformers: Masterpiece|Masterpiece]]'' Sideswipe; the "Dinobot Island" design was an Amazon-exclusive accessory for the ''Masterpiece'' toy; and the "S.O.S. Dinobots" design came with ''Masterpiece'' [[Clampdown (G1)|Clampdown]].
*Sideswipe's Japanese name, "Lambor" (ランボル) is derived from the name of his [[alternate mode|vehicle mode]], a Lamborghini (ランボルギーニ). It may also be a word play on the Japanese word "ranbō" (乱暴), which means "reckless, violent, rough". Wouldn't be the [[Autorooper|last]] [[Nine Great Demon Generals|time]] Takara's done such [[Romanization|word puns]].
*According to a [[story page]] in the October 1985 issue of ''[[TV Magazine]]'', Sideswipe and [[Red Alert (G1)|Red Alert]] are brothers, with Sideswipe being slightly older than Red Alert. This connection may have been invented because, aside from Sideswipe and Red Alert sharing the same mold, Sunstreaker was not sold in the Japanese market outside of a special "versus" set with [[Skids (G1)|Skids]] and [[Buzzsaw (G1)|Buzzsaw]]. However, the familial dynamic between Sideswipe and Sunstreaker was '''not''' changed in the Japanese dub of the original ''Transformers'' cartoon, leading some Japanese fans to consider the three Lamborghini characters as triplets.
*Sideswipe has the dubious distinction of being the only one of the European Autobot Classic Heroes range not to feature in Marvel UK's [[Earthforce]] stories, not even making a late appearance like fellow 1991 addition Tracks.

With the evergrowing [[Generation 1 continuity family]], '''[[Optimus Prime (G1)|Optimus Prime]]''' continues to receive more toys—the largest number of toys in fact—for any single ''[[Transformers brand|Transformers]]'' character! The more Generation 1 Optimus Prime toys that are made, the harder it is for us here at TFWiki.net to keep documenting them all in a single article without it resulting in [[you]]r internet browser freezing!

For the sake of finding an easy and definitive split from the main toy article, we have opted to make this page strictly for the various ''[[Transformers: Generations (toyline)|Generations]]''-branded toylines, as this appears to be the brand [[Hasbro]] will likely continue adding Generation 1 characters to for the foreseeable future.

You know you can always count on Optimus Prime being there when the next year's ''Generations'' line comes around!

:''[[Transformers: Generations (toyline)|Generations]]'' "'''Combat Hero Optimus Prime'''" is a metallic-blue, gunmetal, and red redeco of ''United'' [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys#UnitedG2|Laser Optimus Prime]], having the retooled tab, and being based on the canceled ''Generation 2'' [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys#CombatHeroOptimusPrime|Combat Hero Optimus Prime figure]], sporting a red mouthplate inspired by the official catalog image for the unreleased toy (packaged samples had featured a traditionally colored gray mouthplate). He comes packed with a (vaguely) ''Generation 2''-styled Deluxe Class [[Jazz (G1)/toys#UltimateGiftSet|Autobot Jazz]], as well as unchanged releases of ''Generations'' Legends Class [[Thundercracker (G1)/toys#UltimateGiftSet|Thundercracker]] and [[Motormaster (G1)#UltimateGiftSet|Motorbreath]].

*'''Optimus Prime & Autobot Roller''' (Legends Class, 2013)
**''Series / Number'': '''02 / #001'''
**''Accessories'': Ion Blaster

:Part of the third wave of 2012-onwards ''Generations'' Legends Class toys, ''[[Thrilling 30]]'' Optimus Prime is a new mold that is roughly the same size as a ''[[Cyberverse (toyline)|Cyberverse]]'' Commander Class toy. Both his truck and [[robot mode]] are based on his [[Don Figueroa]]-designed body from [[IDW Publishing|IDW]]'s [[The Transformers (IDW)|2009-2011 comic series]], and features [[5 mm post|5 mm-compatible]] hands and roof. He comes with an [[Ion blaster#Legends|Ion Blaster]] which has both 5mm and 3mm posts.

: He comes with "[[Roller (G1)#Generations|Autobot Roller]]", who can transform into a six-wheel armored SUV, a robot with [[C joint|3 mm-compatible]] hands, and a weapon with a 5 mm handle. He has a 5 mm hole in vehicle mode and a 3 mm hole in weapon mode for mounting the Ion Blaster.

: Not depicted in the instructions or stock photos, Roller can attach to Prime in vehicle mode via two tabs on the vehicle front which slot into two corresponding slots on Prime's feet. Another undocumented feature is that the butt of the Ion Blaster can be inserted between the barrels of Roller's weapon mode to form a longer weapon. Also not shown in the instructions but depicted on the stock photo on the card-back is that Prime's shoulderpads can be rotated up; the intended positioning for this is notched, although you can position them at other angles.

: The stock photo of Optimus' vehicle mode is slightly mistransformed: his head slightly sticks out from the truck roof, which prevents the front windows to clamp together. This mold was also used to make ''Thrilling 30'' [[Nemesis Prime (G1)#Generations|Nemesis Prime]], and retooled into ''Combiner Wars'' [[Huffer (G1)#Generations|Huffer]] and [[Pipes (G1)#Generations|Autobot Pipes]].

*'''Orion Pax''' (Deluxe Class, 2013)
**''Series / Number'': '''02 / #002'''
**''Accessories'': Ion Blaster, Energon Axe

:Part of the fifth wave of 2012-onwards ''Generations'' Deluxe Class toys, ''Thrilling 30'' Orion Pax is a new mold with a robot mode inspired by [[Guido Guidi]]'s design for the character, originally seen in ''[[Spotlight: Blurr]]''. Some liberties have been taken with the original concept to facilitate his truck mode, which is a new design not based on the Guidi art. He comes with his [[Ion blaster#Deluxe|Ion Blaster]] and an [[Energon-axe#Deluxe|Energon Axe]] with a transparent red-orange blade, both of which can peg onto 5 mm ports on his hands and vehicle rear sides. Although not depicted on the instructions, the Ion Blaster can also peg into the hole in the larger blade of the Energon Axe. Even though the light-piping eyes are neutered by light blue paint, the side grooves are still able to light up as the paint only focuses on the central optic.

:The American release is packed in with a copy of IDW's ''[[Omega's Conundrum|Spotlight: Orion Pax]]'', which sports a 'Hasbro Exclusive Cover' cropped from the [[Clayton Crain]] [[:File:Spotlight OrionPax cvrRI.jpg|retailer incentive cover]] for the issue. In Europe and Canada, the figure was released without the Spotlight.

:Depending on how many painted layers on the Energon axe's hilt, inserting it onto any hand may cause it to scratch off.

:Most of the first-wave Orion Pax toys released in monolingual English [[packaging]] sport a bizarre [[quality control#Packaging images and labelling|error]]: The [[package art|character art]] on the side of the cardboard insert inside the blister bubble has the character art of Orion's [[wave]]-mate [[Megatron (G1)/Generations toys#T30Deluxe|Megatron]] superimposed over Orion's own art. This error doesn't appear on the [[Multilingual packaging|European packaging]].

:The toy was later [[Redeco|recolored]] and [[retool]]ed to make ''[[Transformers Timelines (toyline)|Timelines]]'' [[Lio Convoy#timelinestoy|Lio Convoy]], [[Optimus Prime (SG)#NovaPrime|Nova Prime]], and [[Galva Convoy#Toys|Galva Convoy]]. The mold was designed with a pre-tooled [[Kup (G1)/toys#Generations|Kup]] alternate head that remains unused.<ref>https://www.facebook.com/PetesRoboCon/posts/569672986709925</ref>

The figurines are based on their ''Thrilling 30'' Deluxe Class toys, and similarly to [[Decoy]]s, the Autobot figurines are cast in red plastic, and the Decepticons in purple.

:The handle of Pax's Energon Axe is incredibly thin and unable to support the axe head, meaning the latter tends to droop down in the process.

==''Combiner Wars''==
[[File:GenerationsVoyOP.jpg|thumb|upright=1.66|Beefcake is the right of all sentient beings.]]
*'''Optimus Prime''' (Voyager Class, 2015)
**'''3 OF 5: [[Ultra Prime]]'''
**''Accessories:'' Two blasters (combine into large rifle)

: Part of the first wave of ''Generations: [[Combiner Wars (toyline)|Combiner Wars]]'' Voyager Class toys, this is a bigger, bulkier incarnation of Optimus Prime with a striking resemblance to Ginrai. He comes with two blasters which he holds via 5 mm post. One of the guns is based on his trademark Ion Blaster, and both weapons store on the back of his vehicle mode as a makeshift engine block. His torso mode has several details that appear to be influenced by [[Optimus Prime (Armada)/toys#Energon|''Energon'' Optimus Prime]]'s super mode, including the head, chest, and thighs. In particular, the chest details are modeled after the [[Spark of Combination]]. He also features two pair of fake windows on his robot and gestalt chest halves. The combiner head can be used as a robot mode head if you're feeling silly.

:Optimus suffers from a design flaw that many other Voyager Class figures in the ''Combiner Wars'' line experience: the detents, or "click points", on the heavily-ratcheted outward motion of his hips (which also form the hips of his torso mode) are few in number and very far apart. As a result, Prime's legs have great difficulty assuming the natural "A-stance" formation that the angled design of his foot sculpt seems to have been meant to accommodate. Likewise, when forming the torso of Ultra Prime, the interactions of the knee-lock mechanism and the hip detents almost always force Ultra Prime's legs into either an awkwardly knock-kneed arrangement or an equally awkward, and often unstable, bow-legged posture (as seen in the image to the right) that prevents Ultra Prime from standing flat-footed. Unlike Motormaster, this version of Optimus was the only one to not receive the improved hip ratchets implemented in its future releases in some shape or form by Hasbro, though they would be used for the Battle Core redeco later in the line. However, there are third party ratchet replacements for the hips.

:Being a ''Combiner Wars'' Voyager, Prime is naturally capable of transforming into a torso mode to combine with any 4 Deluxe Class ''Combiner Wars''-style toys, though his packaging call-out has him form Ultra Prime by combining him with Deluxe Class [[Skydive (G1 Aerialbot)#Generations|Skydive]] and [[Alpha Bravo]] as the arms, and with [[Fireflight (G1)#Generations|Firefly]] and [[Drag Strip (G1)#Generations|Decepticon Drag Strip]] as the legs. He can combine with [[Sunstreaker (G1)/toys#Generations|Sunstreaker]], [[Mirage (G1)/toys#Combiner Wars|Mirage]], [[Prowl (G1)/toys#Generations|Prowl]], and [[Ironhide (G1)/toys#Combiner Wars|Ironhide]] if one wishes to have an IDW-accurate Optimus Maximus.

:Unfortunately, Optimus Prime is also the weakest link of the gestalt combination, due to a number of design failures attributed to his torso mode. The square holes-and-tabs used to secure the arms together when in torso mode are too weak to remain locked in place (though a very small amount of copies can secure the arm well), and are prone to falling out of position should an attached arm be moved. The torso mode's skirt plate is also attached to the stomach rather than the pelvis, rendering the waist swivel nearly worthless due to the skirt obstructing articulation.

:Optimus comes packaged with a collector's card featuring art from the initial release of the ''[[Transformers Legends (mobile game)|Transformers Legends]]'' mobile game. The mold would be retooled several times, resulting in [[Motormaster (G1)#Combiner Wars|Motormaster]], [[Optimus Prime (G1)/Generations toys#CWBC|Battle Core Optimus Prime]], and [[Toxitron (G1)#Generations|Wrecker Toxitron]]. The toy also served as a model for ''[[Transformers: Forged to Fight|Forged to Fight]]'' [[Nemesis Prime (G1)#Transformers: Forged to Fight|Nemesis Prime]].

**'''3 of 5: [[Optimus Maximus (G1)|Optimus Maximus]]'''
**''Accessories:'' Two blasters (combine into large rifle)

:"Battle Core Optimus Prime" is a white redeco and slight retool of the previous ''Combiner Wars'' Optimus figure. According to the Hasbro panel at [[BotCon 2015]], his new head is based on Star Convoy (see above). For some reason, his deco appears to be influenced by [[Nova Prime]].

:The figure features newly redesigned hip ratchets to make both robot and combiner mode stable, which were also installed in both TakaraTomy's [[Motormaster (G1)#Unite Warriors 2|Motormaster]], [[Grand Scourge#Toys|Grand Scourge]], and a revision wave of Hasbro's Motormaster. The pegs that Legends Class Rodimus (or Blackjack) attach to have also been slightly modified to provide a tighter fit, making the latter toy much less prone to falling out.

:Battle Core Optimus Prime can combine with any Deluxe Class toys with the ''Combiner Wars''-styled joint—but, of course, he is intended to be combined with [[Sunstreaker (G1)/toys#Generations|Sunstreaker]], [[Mirage (G1)/toys#Combiner Wars|Mirage]], [[Prowl (G1)/toys#Generations|Prowl]], and [[Ironhide (G1)/toys#Combiner Wars|Ironhide]] to form [[Optimus Maximus (G1)#Generations|Optimus Maximus]]. He can also combine with ''Unite Warriors'' [[Streetwise (G1)#Unite Warriors 2|Streetwise]], [[Groove (G1)#Unite Warriors 2|Groove]], [[Prowl (G1)/toys#Unite Warriors|Prowl]], and ''Combiner Wars'' [[Rook (CW)#Generations|Rook]] to form White Convoy Grand Prime, as seen in the [[God Neptune comic 2|''Generations Selects'' Special Comic promoting God Neptune]].

:Battle Core Optimus Prime comes packaged with a collector's card based on his packaging art. the prototype printed on the back of the box & the stock photos, and the CG model in the instructions had him possessing a single tampographed/stickered symbol on his left arm.

:He and the last three waves of ''Combiner Wars'' Deluxe and Voyager figures later showed up in the U.S. at TJ Maxx at reduced prices.

:As a part of the third and fourth wave promotion in Hasbro's Asian markets, a free sticker sheet for the [[Protectobot (G1)|Protectobot]]s and [[Optimus Maximus (G1)|Optimus Maximus]] was given out when purchasing any four Deluxe Class toys from those waves. As such, Battle Core Optimus Prime was given Generation 1 toy-esque stickers for the owner to apply if they wanted.<ref>[https://news.tfw2005.com/2015/08/28/transformers-combiner-wars-sticker-sheet-for-wave-3-and-4-figures-300471 Protectobot and Optimus Maximus sticker promotion on TFW2005]</ref>

*'''Optimus Prime''' (Cyber Battalion, 2015)

:Part of the new ''Generations Cyber Battalion'' series, Optimus Prime is a new mold which stands 7 inches tall, and transforms from a truck (which is based on the ''Generations Thrilling 30'' Legends Class Optimus Prime figure) into a robot in just 7 simple steps. The figure's transformation engineering had taken cues from the [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys#2010Legend|''Reveal the Shield'' Legends Class Optimus Prime]] figure, while it still retains the same ol' articulation.

:As with other earlier Cyber Series figures, Optimus Prime had a rather strange release cycle. At first, he only retailed exclusively in Asia and Latin America, with the closest to a U.S. release being in limited quantities from online retailer BigBadToyStore.com. He did, however, end up being available in the Universal Studios Theme Park, and also later as a Walgreens exclusive.

Surprisingly, he does have a reasonable amount of articulation, including a balljointed head and hinged joints for his arms, shoulders and legs, plus lateral hinges for his feet. His head includes [[light-piping]] and, unlike other Cyber Series toys, his truck windows have ''actual'' transparent plastic rather than just being merely painted.

He also features a flame tampograph on the sides of his vehicle front. He comes in an altered packaging that replaces the first version's painted [[prototype]] [[stock photography|stock photos]] with CG renders depicting the new deco, and also features a new Hasbro product code number, thus making him officially a separate product rather than a drastic running change [[variant]].

**''Accessories'': Smokestacks/Laser Gun, energy unit/ion blaster

:Part of Hasbro's ''[[Transformers: Platinum Edition|Platinum Edition]]'' offerings for 2016 intended to commemorate the 30th anniversary of ''[[The Transformers: The Movie]]'', this Optimus Prime is yet another redeco of the ''[[#Classics|Classics]]'' Voyager toy. Rather than the [[show-accuracy|show-accurate]] colors like the ''Age of Extinction'' 2-pack figure, the toy's deco is very similar to the ''Classics'' release, with some changes and omissions: his blue plastic is a dark metallic sheen, his knee's yellow detailing was removed, his small Autobot symbol tampograph was placed on his right shoulder, and his larger one is placed on his energy unit. His side door/arm kibble is left unpainted. According to [[Mark Weber]], this was meant to represent his abdominal area being torn in the movie's battle. (Yeah, we have no idea how it works, since the "battle damage" parts end up on his ''arms'' in robot mode.)

:Both his robot and vehicle mode [[stock photography|stock photos]] depict him slightly mistransformed.

:''Platinum Edition'' Optimus Prime was only available as part of a 2-pack with [[Megatron (G1)/Generations toys#Platinum Edition|Megatron]], named "One Shall Stand, One Shall Fall" after Optimus Prime's famous line in the movie. In the United States and Canada, this set was officially released as an [[Amazon (website)|Amazon]] exclusive. It was also available in several of Hasbro's Asian markets (namely the Philippines and Singapore; it's currently unknown whether it was exclusive to any particular stores there or not). In Australia, it was sold at Myer stores, whereas in the United Kingdom, it was both sold at [[Toys"R"Us]] stores and available via Tesco's website (but never found in stores). Surprisingly, it was (and still is) a common find in Brazilian online stores.

*'''Autobot Apex & Powermaster Optimus Prime''' (Leader Class, 2016)
**''Accessories:'' Two blasters, two shoulder cannons, [[Hi-Q#Generations|Apex]] Titan Master

:A heavy retool of ''Combiner Wars'' [[Ultra Magnus (G1)/toys#Generations|Ultra Magnus]], this Optimus Prime is based on the Powermaster Optimus Prime toy from 1988. Despite this, Hi-Q (now renamed 'Autobot Apex', presumably for trademark reasons) doesn't form the engine on Prime's chest; instead, he transforms into a de-faceplated version of the original Powermaster Optimus Prime cab robot head, over which a helmet slides during transformation to complete the Powermaster Prime look. In all three of Optimus Prime's modes are various pegs and seats with which Titan Master figures can interact. Like other Leader Class figures, his base mode can connect to other ''Titan Returns'' figures with base modes.

:Most notably in terms of new tooling, the panels on the undersides of Powermaster Optimus Prime's forearms feature slots under the fists, which allow the guns to tab in and be held much more stably than with Ultra Magnus. And due to the amount of empty space in the cab area in vehicle mode, Powermaster Prime can fully transform without the need to remove his head.

:Powermaster Optimus Prime also comes with a collector's card based on his packaging art.

:In an undocumented feature, because he comes with the same rifles as ''Combiner Wars Ultra Magnus'', his weapons can be combined into a huge, multi-barreled rifle. His instructions show that one of the two Titan Master seat guns can peg onto the top of his chest plate in base mode, but are unclear on exactly ''how''. The tab on the chest plate plugs into the hole where the Titan Master's feet peg in. However, in doing so the Titan Master will no longer fit. Due to the extra panels that were added to the legs, Optimus has trouble standing flat on both feet. Fortunately, this doesn't have any serious effect on the toy's stability due to the size of the feet. His gray plastic comes tinged somewhat, perhaps as a result of a [[Photodegradation|yellowed]] specimen of the original Powermaster figure (such as the one on this very page) being used as a reference. He comes with two different Autobot symbols: The ones on the shoulders are a Movie variant, while the trailer features a ''Generation 1''-styled insignia.

:[[Fortress Maximus (G1)/toys#Titans Return|Fortress Maximus]]'s instructions depict him as part of the [[Cybertron City (TR)|Cybertron City]] combination. Meanwhile, the "Siege on Cybertron" instructions show him as a part of the [[Nemesis Command]] combination, albeit mislabeled as [[Blaster (G1)/toys#Titans Return|Autobot Blaster]].

:This mold was further retooled as ''[[Transformers Legends (franchise)|Legends]]'' [[Ginrai (human)#Legends|Super Ginrai]], which was redecoed into Siege On Cybertron [[Ginrai (robot)#Titans Return|Magnus Prime]].

*'''Diac & Optimus Prime''' (Voyager Class, 2016)
**''Accessories'': Sword, Double-barreled rifle, [[Diac#Generations|Diac]] Titan Master

:This Optimus Prime is a Voyager-sized Triple Changer mold, which transforms from robot to tanker truck to plane (based on the [[Action Master]] [[Armored Convoy]] vehicle) and back. His robot mode is heavily based on ''Generation 2'' [[#LaserOptimusPrime|Laser Optimus Prime]], whilst the deco appears to draw from Star Convoy. His Titan Master partner [[Diac#Toys|Diac]] transforms into his head (but any Titan Master figure is compatible). Like all ''[[Titans Return (toyline)|Titans Return]]'' Voyager class figures, he has built in mechanisms to "bulk up" his noggin. In his case these are spring-loaded pylons. His robot mode also features fake truck windows.

:This iteration of the mold and its redecos exhibit a minor design flaw: there are two tabs on the plane mode's wings that prevent the truck mode's trailer from fully closing at the rear. Ostensibly, this can be rectified by setting the wings slightly askew so they can properly flatten against each other. However, this leads to some holes on each wing not being lined up with some corresponding pegs on the trailer.

:This mold was redecoed into ''Legends'' [[Scourge (RID)#Voyager|Black Convoy]] and ''Street Fighter X Transformers'' [[Ryu#Toys|Ryu]], and retooled into [[Octane#Titans Return|Octone]]. Beginning with this wave, Hasbro changed the standard packaging design for ''Titans Return'' Voyagers from "Autobot" style to "Decepticon" style regardless of character faction.

:This mold would've been redecoed as "Action Master" Optimus Prime with a redecoed Infinitus Titan Master for the BotCon 2017 "Action on Hydrus Four" set that never came to be.

He also comes with a new hoverboard accessory (resembling the one [[Daniel Witwicky (G1)|Daniel Witwicky]] used in ''[[The Transformers: The Movie]]''), which Shreddicus Maximus (or any other Titan/Prime Master) can attach to. This board is designed to attach to the included three-piece skating ramp & rail assembly, which can be folded up and rebuilt into a railgun (get it?) that other figures can wield.

: Optimus & Shreddicus were initially [[exclusive]] to [[San Diego Comic-Con]] 2017, where they sold out. A small portion of the run had been held for future sales: [[Hasbro Toy Shop]] put the set up for sale for about five minutes on [[August 14]] before selling out.

:''[[Power of the Primes (toyline)|Power of the Primes]]'' "Evolution Optimus Prime" transforms from a truck with a trailer into a robot and back. The individual truck transforms into his "Orion Pax" form based on his appearance in the Generation 1 episode "[[War Dawn (episode)|War Dawn]]", and he is able to form the core of Optimus Prime's robot mode. His trailer forms Prime's entire body, sharing a noticeable amount of details with MP-10 mold, most notably an almost identical head sculpt. He is the first non-''Masterpiece'' ''Generations'' G1 Optimus Prime figure to include removable [[Matrix of Leadership/toys#Power of the Primes|Matrix of Leadership]] accessory, which is stored in his chest in the 'Evolved' form. The center of his Matrix of Leadership can be replaced with any [[Prime Master#Toys|Prime Master]]. His [[ion blaster]] can be split into two weapons for Orion Pax to use, while also store on Optimus Prime's back via visible [[5 mm post]]s of Orion Pax's hands, though this is undocumented in the instructions. The Takara version of the mold lacks the production numbers located at his right shins. Depending on the individual copy, Optimus Prime is prone to having a number of quality control issues: ranging from two left/right arms and/or legs/feet on the evolution armor, to lacking stickers on the trailer pieces. On the other hand, the trailer can also be towed by any other figure with a compatible hitch.

:Part of the first wave of ''[[War for Cybertron: Siege|Siege]]'' Voyager Class figures, Optimus Prime transforms from robot to [[For safety reasons|short-smokestacked]] Cybertronian armored truck and back. For an inexpensive mass-retail release, Optimus's robot mode is very accurate to his design from the original cartoon (albeit with added details) and also features excellent poseability on par with a ''[[The Transformers: Masterpiece|Masterpiece]]'' toy, resulting in a version of the character that gives collectors lots of bang for their buck. He includes two weapons compatible with the [[C.O.M.B.A.T. System]]—the "W-50 Dual-Mech Energon Strikeshield," which is an axe that transforms into a shield, and the "W-M3 RF [[Ion blaster|Ion Blaster]]." Both weapons can combine to form the "Sentrystrike Ultra-Blaster." An argument could be made that being able to flip around Optimus's underarm kibble to form underslung gatling guns is an undocumented gimmick. Optimus Prime also features "battle damage" paint applications on several parts of his body, as well as multiple hardpoints all over himself and his weapons to accommodate "Fire Blasts" from the [[Battle Master]]s assortment, which can be used to simulate blaster fire or explosions.

:In vehicle mode, opening the figure's windows shows the [[Matrix of Leadership/toys#War for Cybertron: Siege|Matrix of Leadership]] molded into the plastic behind the windows. Due to the transformation, the Matrix doesn't end up in the chest in robot mode. Despite being a Voyager-scale figure, the truck mode is considerably small, in scale with a Legends-sized figure. Whether through coincidence or design, it's possible to fit a ''Power of the Primes'' Matrix core (and by extension, a [[Prime Master]] or [[Titan Master]]) in his chest.

:An additional, undocumented but confirmed third "hover truck" mode exists, which is achieved by folding all of his wheels under his vehicle mode. While the back wheels don't lock in anywhere, the two front wheels actually have small tabs that plug into slots on the back of the wheel sections that aren't used for either of his other modes.<ref>[http://www.toyboxsoapbox.com/2018/11/13/transformers-siege-voyager-optimus-prime-review/ "At some convention somewhere one Hasbro rep let slip that Siege Optimus Prime also had a hidden hover truck mode."] on Toybox Soapbox</ref>

:There is a message written in [[Cybertronian language|Cybertronian letters]] on Optimus Prime's box art, which reads "LIGHT THE DARKEST HOUR."

:While Optimus greatly resembles the inner robot of ''Siege'' [[Ultra Magnus (G1)/toys#War for Cybertron: Siege|Ultra Magnus]], he is actually a completely different mold and therefore not compatible with the [[Magnus Armor]]. This mold was later used to make [[Nemesis Prime (G1)#War for Cybertron: Siege|Nemesis Prime]]. A large number of parts of this figure were reused for the ''Earthrise'' Optimus Prime figure released in 2020. Due to this, the trailer packaged with the ''Earthrise'' figure is fully compatible with the ''Siege'' figure's truck mode.

:Care should be taken not to pull the waist transformation hinge too far back or else the partially open clip housing the pin may break.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gP7V5NVghvE]</ref> Depending on the individual quality control, the roof panel (notably the rear right side) may not shut properly in vehicle mode.

:Part of the second wave ''Siege'' Leader Class figures, "Galaxy Upgrade Optimus Prime" is an extensive retool of the same line's [[Ultra Magnus (G1)/toys#War for Cybertron: Siege|Ultra Magnus]], taking heavy design cues from [[Optimus Prime (Armada)/toys#Cybertron|''Cybertron'' Optimus Prime]] (the Japanese series name being "''Galaxy Force''," which is referenced in the name). He transforms into a heavily armed fire truck like the ''Cybertron'' figure, but with a Cybertronian aesthetic. The two "W-30 Magnetic Inducer Launchers" are unpainted blasters from ''Siege'' Ultra Magnus, and as such, mirror the detailing placed just behind ''[[Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2001 franchise)|Robots in Disguise]]'' [[Ultra Magnus (RID)|Ultra Magnus]]'s cab. Their hexagonal tips resembling ''Cybertron'' Optimus Prime's Super Mode leg cannons were likely a foresight for this retooling, but are molded in black rather than grey likely due to [[gang-molding]].

:The core figure's robot mode is inspired by Prime's Generation 1 look, but with [[Kibble|vehicle mode details]] and coloration (including yellow eyes) based on the cab of his ''Cybertron'' counterpart. As with the original ''Cybertron'' figure, the barrel of the truck's left cannon can be detached and wielded by Prime as a rifle called the "JF-15 Gravity Force Laser." The sides of the bumper in truck mode can detach and form arm cannons based on his ''Cybertron'' counterpart's forearms. All five weapons are compatible with the [[C.O.M.B.A.T. System]]. Because of the nature of the mold, additional shoulderpads [[Kibble#"Faux-parts"|resembling halves of his truck cab]] were included to complete the Super Mode's resemblance to the template. The vehicle mode's cannons can be underslung and handheld similarly to the ''Cybertron'' figure thanks to the sliding pegs, but lack the original's gimmicks. Unlike Ultra Magnus, Galaxy Upgrade Optimus Prime also features flip-out support struts on the leg armor to compensate the back's weight. While they're hardly needed since the armor's bulk is heavy enough to support the weight, the pieces also prevent the leg armors from standing flat when left folded in.

:Unlike the above Voyager Class figure, this Prime is fully compatible with the [[Magnus Armor]], as is Ultra Magnus with Optimus's Super Mode gear. Also, whether intentional or not, the figure scales almost perfectly with other figures from the original Cybertron line.

:The box art of his vehicle modes is [[Stock photography#Problems with stock photos|mistransformed]], likely as a result of using CGI renders; the two shoulder pieces are shown being left on, which is genuinely impossible and in fact appear to be clipped through each other. They are instead stored inside the leg armor, which forms the back end of the trailer. Strangely, the clear blue plastic used for the cab has light bars molded in, but they are painted over in red. Presumably this is to make the inner robot appear more like G1 Optimus, but results in a less accurate vehicle mode compared to the ''Cybertron'' design. Additionally, there are existing stock photos of the figure without the wingpack and the smaller robot head flipped out.

:Specially branded for the 35th anniversary of the ''Transformers'' brand, ''Siege'' "Classic Animation Optimus Prime" is a redeco of the Voyager Class figure above, featuring a cel-shaded paint pattern that evokes his appearance in the cartoon (though the physical result is more like that of [[Transformers: Devastation|''Devastation'']]). In addition, the grey plastics and paint operations are now replaced with white, and the tire rims' paint is omitted.

:Alongside fellow cel-shaded figure [[Megatron (G1)/Generations toys#S66|Megatron]] and the other "35th Anniversary" Optimus was exclusive to [[Walmart]] in the United States and Canada, and among the first figures that debuted a new, "worldwide" [[multilingual packaging]] design that merged the languages typically found on European packaging with those found on American packaging. In a bit of a snafu, though, all the English texts on his packaging are simply repeated four times, instead of being translated into French, German, Spanish, and Portuguese, or omitted in case two or more translations would be identical to each other (or to the English version).

:''[[Transformers Collaborative|Collaborative]]'' Ghostbusters x Transformers ''[[The Transformers: Masterpiece|Masterpiece]]'' MP-10G Optimus Prime Ecto-35 Edition (whew!) is a [[Ghostbusters]]-themed redeco of the MP-10 Convoy/Optimus Prime mold.

:Optimus Prime is now decoed in white, dark gray and red, with a Ghostbusters "no ghosts" logo on his right shoulder in addition to the Autobot logo on his left. The trailer is decoed similarly, with Ecto-1 style details adorning the sides, as well as green ghost splatter. Optimus's vehicle mode bumper includes an "ECTO-35" plate, which can be seen through his chest in robot mode, referencing the 35th Anniversary of both the ''Transformers'' and ''Ghostbusters'' franchises.

:He includes all his accessories, aside from [[Spike Witwicky (G1)|Spike]] and his axe, gaining a number of additional ones consistent with the theme. The trailer opens out into the "Ecto-Base," or can be stood upright as the "Ecto Maintenance Dock." A snap-on cover can be applied to Roller to turn him into a ghost trap, a painted opaque version of the [[Slimer]] figure included with Ectotron, and a "roof-rack accessory" using the same mold as [[Ectotron]]'s that pegs into the roof of the trailer. This final item converts into a proton pack for robot mode, pegging into the hole in his back, and a hose connects his ion blaster to the proton pack to serve as a particle thrower. In addition, the figure's packaging is shaped like a proton pack, complete with clips to enable the buyer to strap it to their back.

:Ectotron can ''sort of'' fit into Prime's trailer, but this requires the former's equipment rack to be removed from the roof, and clearance within the trailer prevents the trailer's rear tailgate from closing.

:Ecto-35 Edition Optimus Prime debuted as an exclusive at [[San Diego Comic-Con]] in 2019, with additional availability at Fan Expo Canada and the [[Hasbro Pulse]] online store.

*'''Star Convoy''' ([[September 28]], 2019)
**''Hasbro ID number:'' '''TT-GS01'''
**''Accessories'': trailer/evolution armor, ion-blaster (formed by two blasters), Silver Matrix

:''[[Generations Selects (toyline)|Generations Selects]]'' Star Convoy is a retool of the [[#Power of the Primes|''Power of the Primes'' Leader Class mold]], featuring new lower legs, head, upper shoulders, and waist parts for both the armor and inner robot, and a new torso for the latter. The Optimus Prime inner robot is remolded to resemble his Generation 1 toy, complete with toy-accurate yellow eyes. Most of the armor's grey parts (especially the evolution armor's arms) are now remolded in red plastic to be more accurate to Star Convoy's character model, though there are a few sacrifices leaving some of the red patches on the trailer.

:The Matrix of Leadership is now replaced with the "Silver Matrix" that is a singular piece of plastic dipped in chrome. As such, it does not accommodate Prime Masters/Matrices/Enigmas. The Matrix can be held by 5 mm fist holes and can combine with the guns to form a "Big Bang Cannon". Unlike the original versions of the mold, Star Convoy's stickers, intended to be applied to his trailer, come on a sheet instead of being factory-applied.

:The star-shaped piece that clips into Star Convoy's chest is new to this version of the mold. Because it pegs into a small hole between the tops of the doors to Star Convoy's chest compartment, it introduces an additional step to access the matrix chamber. The red connector which attaches the star to the figure is misassembled, and flipped from its proper orientation. Due to this, the star is prone to not attaching securely to the chest and can easily pop out without much effort. A fix<ref>[https://www.tfw2005.com/boards/threads/generations-selects-star-convoy-super-megatron-snaptrap-figures.1172403/page-113#post-17312785]</ref> utilized by some to address the issue involves popping out the star and connector, then flipping the connector around, before reattaching both parts to the figure. Care should be taken when handling the star and transforming Star Convoy to ensure it does not bump against other parts of the figure or experience undue stress, as it is molded from clear plastic coated in gold chrome. The stem of the star is particularly fragile and has been known to break without much force being applied to it.

:Reminescent of the fact that the original [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys#Return of Convoy|''Return of Convoy'' Star Convoy]] figure could transform into a battle station, a "Z Base Mode" was created for the character for the ''Selects'' [[Super Megatron comic 1|Special Comic promoting Super Megatron]], and the toy (and any of the ''Power of the Primes'' Evolution Optimus Prime molds) is capable of being configured into this form.

:This toy was released exclusively through [[TakaraTomy Mall]] and, thanks to brand unification, [[Hasbro Pulse]] and other online retailers in the United States and Canada. It is the first ''Selects'' figure to be developed by TakaraTomy.

[[File:TF-WFC-E-Leader-Optimus-Prime.jpg|upright=2|thumb|That's the news everyone's waiting for!]]
*'''Optimus Prime''' (Leader Class, 2020)
**''Hasbro ID number:'' '''WFC-E11'''
**''TakaraTomy ID number'': '''ER-02'''
**''TakaraTomy name'': '''Optimus Prime with Trailer'''
**''TakaraTomy release date'': [[April 25]], 2020
**''Accessories:'' [[Ion blaster#Generations|Ion Blaster]], shield/ramp, trailer/[[Combat Deck (G1)#Generations|Combat Deck]], artillery robot, [[Matrix of Leadership/toys#War for Cybertron: Earthrise|Matrix of Leadership]]

:Released as part of the first wave of ''[[War for Cybertron: Earthrise|Earthrise]]'' Leader Class toys, Optimus Prime is a cartoon-accurate, Voyager-sized mold with the front of the head and legs, knee flaps, feet, truck-side panels, and various inner parts reused from his ''Siege'' toy. This also means that, like the ''Siege'' toy, the truck mode is unusually small for a Voyager figure.

:For the first time for a non-''Masterpiece'' ''Generations'' toy, Optimus Prime comes with a trailer (which is also compatible with the ''Siege'' toy) that converts into a combat deck/repair bay with an artillery robot, which can be detached and used as a jetpack via a 5mm peg on the bottom. Awesome. He is also the first Voyager-sized figure with an opening chest compartment containing a removable [[Matrix of Leadership/toys#War for Cybertron: Earthrise|Matrix of Leadership]] accessory. In an undocumented feature, the Matrix is able to accommodate "Fire Blasts" from the Battle Masters assortment or attach to similarly sized posts such as the ones inside his trailer. His transformation scheme reuses some engineering and concepts from the ''Siege'' Voyager Class figures and ''[[Studio Series]]'' [[Optimus Prime (Movie)/toys#SS38|38 Optimus Prime]], with a new torso transformation. Interestingly, his rear wheels are borrowed from ''Studio Series'' [[Optimus Prime (Movie)/toys#SS32|32]] and [[Optimus Prime (Movie)/toys#SS44|44 Optimus Prime]]. Part of the trailer's ramp detaches to form a shield and can connect to other ramps in the [[A.I.R. Lock System]]. Like ''Siege'' Jetfire, Optimus Prime features a hinge joint in each of his knuckles but without the flip-out post hole mechanism, instead having it facilitated by the shape of his palm and thumb. Interestingly, the placement of his front wheels in robot mode evokes the [[Studio OX]] version of his character model (though significantly larger compared to the artwork). Optimus also has molded drilled-rotor brake discs, a surprising detail for a mainline ''Transformers'' figure.

:As the front grill/wheel piece is connected with a c-clip, removing it allows the waist to turn without being hindered. Whether by coincidence or not, the Energon Strikeshield from the ''Siege'' figure can attach onto the forearm (if the hands are tucked away) with the tabs on the axe's hinged handle. Also likely coincidental, the trailer's hitch post is at exactly the right height to let it rest inside the 5mm hole on [[Roller (G1)#Generations|''Thrilling 30'' Roller]] and can even be pulled along on flat surfaces with the tiny truck.

[[File:TF-WFC-ER-Prime-Comparison.jpg|300px|thumb|[[Cyclonus (G1)/toys#Universe .282008.29|Dodged another shot!]] (''Stock image comparison'')]]
:Confusingly, the figure had many color differences in different official promotional images. The original 3D renders depicted his colors completely show-accurate to the G1 cartoon (minus the blue codpiece, and with quite rare toy-accurate yellow eyes), the lack of striping on the forearms/side doors, and fully blue artillery robot for the trailer, while the pre-release prototype seen in New York Comic Con 2019 and the secondary stock photos had his hands and elbows molded in grey, with artillery robot being cast in grey and silver plastic similar to the rest of the trailer. According to [[John Warden]], this was due to the limitations of the mold. Even later, Takara's stock photos showed the figure with blue elbows and a blue and silver artillery robot. The retail release of the figure ultimately, for the most part, went with colors showcased in Hasbro's physical toy stock photos, but with previously yellow eyes now more cartoon-accurate blue, and with his hands, codpiece, and the back piece of his head painted in metallic blue.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XIu3DkO1Sj0</ref> Early renders also displayed the figure's inner-shins as being molded in the same blue color as the rest of the legs, although the final figure presents them cast in gray and unpainted. The sample on the TakaraTomy stock photos also depict his trailer hitch as a single piece.

:Unfortunately, the change from toy accurate yellow eyes to cartoon-accurate blue clashes with the unpainted blue face, making it barely visible. The figure's head can be swapped with the head of the ''Siege'' figure (though the blue plastic is a slightly lighter shade) but it can cause some parts clash while transforming, as the back of the ''Earthrise'' head is a new, flatter part. This is also why the part is a painted red piece, so exercise some caution while tucking away/flipping out the head while transforming.

:Like all ''Earthrise'' toys, the inside of the back of Optimus's package includes an exclusive clip-and-save piece of a larger star map. Also in the box is a thin red piece of transparent plastic with which to read the star map. Optimus' piece of the map contains the labelled location of a planet called "[[Micro|MICRON]]".

:The non-converting long-barreled Ion Blaster, the Energon Axe, [[Sideswipe (G1)/toys#War for Cybertron: Siege|Sideswipe]]'s jetpack, and [[Roller (G1)#War for Cybertron Trilogy|Roller]] were sold separately as part of the ''War for Cybertron Trilogy'' [[Centurion droid#Toys|Deluxe Centurion Drone Weaponizer Pack]], though due to a section of Optimus' back being marginally wider than the space available, some force may be required to fully attach the jetpack. The Energon Axe is also specifically molded to fit onto Optimus' right hand, with the 5mm peg sliding into the bottom side of his hand. Although it can fit on his left hand if slid through the top, this puts noticeable stress on the axe's peg due to the thumb sliding up against the housing.

:The Combat Deck, including its artillery robot and shield/ramp, was redecoed for the ''War for Cybertron Trilogy'' [[Nemesis Prime (G1)#War for Cybertron Trilogy|Nemesis Prime's]] Spoiler Pack. The Optimus Prime mold was also used to make ''War for Cybertron Trilogy Selects'' [[Optimus Prime (SG)#War for Cybertron Trilogy|Shattered Glass Optimus Prime]].

:Optimus Prime first saw release in Bangkok before its actual release date in March.

:"Alternate Universe Optimus Prime" is a grayscaled redeco of the figure above with a new head that evokes the battle damage and his death in ''The Transformers: The Movie''. The Matrix of Leadership is the same as the mass retail Leader, though the Ion Blaster is painted completely silver and his rear calves are painted. Another change is the number of lugnuts on the wheels of the trailer. The normal retail version has 10 lug nuts per wheel, whilst this release has none. He is packaged in a ''[[Generations Selects (toyline)|Selects]]''-styled box that depicts Ultra Magnus, Hot Rod, and [[Arcee (G1)|Arcee]] grieving during his death scene reflected on a window of his damaged truck mode.
:There are reported issues where the left chest piece is unable to tab in fully due to a deformed pin, leaving a small uneven gap visible in robot mode.

:This is the only ''Earthrise'' toy to lack an ID number and map piece and isn't part of the Galactic Odyssey Collection. Coincidentally, Hasbro ID number WFC-E28 is never used in the toyline within its range of E1 to E41, lending to the possibility that WFC-E28 was intended to be his.

:Alternate Universe Optimus Prime was supposed to release as an exclusive for Amazon Prime Day 2020, though the day was pushed back several months, making the toy release much earlier. The figure first saw release in some Malaysian hobby shops ''before'' it was fully revealed on Hasbro's June 26 [[Hasbro Pulse#Fan First Friday|Fan First Friday]] stream. The figure was later released in Japan as a [[TakaraTomy Mall]] exclusive as part of the 7th wave of TakaraTomy ''Selects'' toys.

:Promoting the ''Earthrise'' chapter of the [[Transformers: War for Cybertron Trilogy (cartoon)|''War for Cybertron Trilogy'' cartoon]], this version of Optimus Prime is a trailer-less redeco of the ''Earthrise'' Leader Class mold in darker colors more reminiscent of his [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys#The Transformers|G1 figure]]. He comes with Battle Masters Enerax and Sheeldron, translucent yellow redecoes of ''Siege'' [[Pteraxadon#Toys|Pteraxadon]] and ''Earthrise'' [[Soundbarrier#Toys|Soundbarrier]] respectively, without the effects parts. In terms of deco, Optimus's blue plastic/paint operations and the unpaintable gray joints are replaced with the same darker shade of blue (which also coincidentally resembles the erroneous deco used for most of TakaraTomy's stock photos of the mold), the interiors of his opening chest windows are unpainted, the molded detail in the center of his pelvis is painted yellow, the translucent plastic is the ''slightest'' smoky green, and the eyes are a non-metallic light blue.

:The stock renders for both the robot and vehicle modes are inconsistent with the later stock photos: The forearms are still depicted as stripeless in robot mode, while the rear hip piece and the thighs are differently colored in the truck mode render.

:As with other ''[[War for Cybertron Trilogy (toyline)|War for Cybertron Trilogy]]'' figures, Optimus Prime was exclusive to Walmart in Canada and the United States.

:Promoting the ''Earthrise'' chapter of the [[Transformers: War for Cybertron Trilogy (cartoon)|''War for Cybertron Trilogy'' cartoon]], this ''[[War for Cybertron Trilogy (toyline)|War for Cybertron Trilogy]]'' Leader Unboxing set contains a redeco of ''Siege'' Voyager Class [[#War for Cybertron: Siege|Optimus Prime]] as Nemesis Prime. The figure comes with ''Siege'' Optimus's "W-M3 RF Ion Blaster" (but not his "W-50 Dual-Mech Energon Strikeshield") plus a sizeable number of extras that beef up the price. These include: a redecoed trailer from ''Earthrise'' [[#War for Cybertron: Earthrise|Optimus Prime]]; the Dark Saber, [[Giza (POTP)#War for Cybertron Trilogy|Giza]], and large forearm blaster accessories, all from the [[#Power_of_the_Primes|''Power of the Primes'' Evolution Leader Class toy]]; [[Fangtron#Toys|Fangtron]], a [[redeco]] of ''Earthrise'' Battle Master [[Slitherfang#Toys|Slitherfang]], along with their blast effect part; and a compound through which a buyer can dig to reveal energon cubes, rereleased from ''War for Cybertron Trilogy'' [[Ultra Magnus (G1)/toys#War for Cybertron Trilogy|Ultra Magnus's]] Spoiler Pack. Fangtron and the shield/Combat Deck ramp are both compatible with the [[A.I.R. Lock System]], as the former can turn into a ramp or a shield for Nemesis Prime. This toy also features a different deco compared to the above TakaraTomy Mall exclusive. Namely, he is in fact molded in very dark gray plastic as opposed to the deep black of the Takara version, and the vehicle stripes, bumper guns, and wheel rims are silver instead of teal.

:The Hasbro stock photography for the truck mode is also ''laughably'' mistransformed, with the robot mode crotch being plainly visible, an error that actually requires a considerable amount of effort to replicate with the actual toy. In addition, neither the truck windows nor panels that cover the robot mode hands are compressed fully.

:Much like previous Spoiler Pack, this set is in a windowless box designed to look like an ammo crate and features translatable [[Cybertronian language|Ancient Autobot]]. The text on the package reads "FANGTRON" and "GIZA", while the 'spoiler' text inside features a Decepticon-themed quote: "YOU MUST STAY TRUE / TO WHOM THE MATRIX HAS / CHOSEN, FOR IF YOU / DON’T, A MUCH / DARKER FUTURE AWAITS" and an Autobot-themed one: "THE DEAD UNIVERSE IS / UNLIKE ANYTHING YOU’VE / EXPERIENCED, PRIME", which are both quotes from [[Sky Lynx (G1)|Sky Lynx]] in [[Earthrise episode 5]]. The lateral side of the package also features artwork of Nemesis Prime, edited from art of ''Earthrise'' Optimus Prime. Compared to the previous Spoiler Pack, the packaging itself has no plastic insert.

:Part of the first wave of the ''[[War for Cybertron: Kingdom|Kingdom]]'' Core Class toys, Optimus Prime is a smaller, roughly Legends-sized mold that according to his product copy and stock images is meant to be posed with larger toys of the same character, but we would be stupid not to note that he is also a good size to interact with Titan Class figures. His transformation shares engineering with the [[#Thrilling 30|''Thrilling 30'' Legends figure]], but with sculpted detailing directly based on the ''Earthrise'' mold, down to detailing like the ''vestigial knee flaps'' from the ''Siege'' mold. The included Ion Blaster features a 3 mm handle under a 5 mm post, dedicated to the C.O.M.B.A.T. System.

:Optimus Prime also had a very minor problem standing straight even with the legs standing flat.

:Unlike the actual product, the truck door section of the wrist/hand part is unpainted in the CG stock render.

:Part of the first wave of ''[[Legacy (toyline)|Legacy]]'' Leader Class toys, "Laser Optimus Prime" is an updated version of his [[Optimus_Prime_(G1)/toys#LaserOptimusPrime|G2 design]] which transforms into a mid-1990s Western Star 4964EX, with decos imitating both his original release as well as his 2010 Deluxe class remake above. He includes an Energon sword, an Energon axe, and a trailer which can transform into a battle station (tanker deco of Optimus burning down a forest not included!).His signature shoulder pylons can open outwards to reveal missile pods, something the previous two figures couldn't accomplish.

:Most of Laser Optimus Prime's lower body, including his hips, thighs, and feet, appear to reuse the ones from the ''Earthrise'' toy above whereas other details like his shins and the entirety of his upper body are brand-new. Like the ''Earthrise'' toy, the shins have the vestige of the Siege figure's trailer hitch on the outside.

:Oddly, the [[Hasbro Pulse]] listing for the figure has him at "G2 Universe Laser Optimus Prime", yet the packaging itself only labels him as "Laser Optimus Prime".

:''Lift-Ticket is a [[Diaclone (faction)|Diaclone]] mech from the [[Diaclone]] [[continuity family]].''

[[File:BotCon2015 Lift-Ticket CardArt.jpg|upright=1.2|thumb|No parking means No parking!]]
'''Lift-Ticket''' is [[Cline]]'s mech, part of the [[Diaclone project]] begun to combat the [[Waruder]] invaders. It is primarily equipped for rescue and repair. Its tow-truck mode serves it well for this purpose. In humanoid mode, the mechanisms in its arms enable the mech to lift twice as much as it can tow.

Unlike [[Burn Out (Diaclone)|Burn Out]], Lift-Ticket's AI is not based on Cline, being cautious and alert as opposed to Cline's methodical approach. Still, the AI's wariness has saved Cline many times from the Waruders' clutches.

[[File:Lift-Ticket Diaclone.jpg|upright=1.0|thumb|left]]

Crossing dimensions in pursuit of the [[Waruder]]s, Lift-Ticket/Cline and Burn Out/[[Dia]] found themselves stranded on [[Axiom Nexus]]. Following a Waruder signal underground, the team bumped into a group of Cybertron's most wanted criminals. Startled, they fled the scene. The groups reconvened as they both wound up within the Waruder hive. Joining forces with [[Megatron (Movie)#TransTech|C-81]]'s group, as well as [[Optimus Prime (G1)#General Optimus|General Optimus Prime]] and [[Hound (G1)#TransTech|Sergeant Hound]], they did their best to hold the insectoid invaders at bay. During the battle, the Lift-Ticket mech took a severe blow, disabling it. Thankfully, Cline escaped unharmed, and the Waruders were led off-planet thanks to the collaborative efforts of everyone involved. {{storylink|Cybertron's Most Wanted}}

[[File:PrimeFEtoy-BulkheadTakaraTomy.jpg|thumb|upright=1.67|Any color green is good, right?]]
*'''Bulkhead''' (First Edition Voyager Class, 2011/2012)
**''Number:'' '''002'''
**''Takara release date'': [[December 28]], 2012
**''Accessories:'' [[Energon]] battle mace, stand

: Part of the first wave of ''[[Transformers: Prime (toyline)#First Edition (2011)|Prime: First Edition]]'' Voyager Class toys, Bulkhead transforms into a truck. He comes with an "energon battle mace" that can either peg via [[5 mm post|5mm post]] into his hands, or replace one of his hands when either is flipped into his arm. The mace itself features a plain peg-hole at the top, and is stored in [[alternate mode|vehicle mode]] by pegging it onto the trunk. The patch of clear black [[light-piping]] plastic ([[Gang-molding|gang-molded]] to the rest of his [[Show-accuracy|show-accurate]] clear black parts) on his head is neutered by having his eyes painted, in equally show-accurate light blue. Oddly, though, many parts like his upper arms, hands, and crotch piece are cast in a bronze-ish plastic rather than a grey. This is in contrast to his more accurate stock photos and ''Robots in Disguise'' Voyager release. He features a cardboard stand as with all "First Edition" toys, but the weak adhesive used for its flaps mean it often has trouble supporting the weight of a Voyager class figure for an extended amount of time, the top caving in as the glue gives way.

:In an effort for him to fit in his [[packaging]], he is usually mis-transformed: the panel on his back is hinged up to his head, while the wheels connected to his panel-chest, normally splayed out as a pair of "[[Kibble|wings]]" and tabbed into the sides of the back panel, are left folded up and untabbed on his sides. His headlights, normally swiveled and angled up on his chest, are also left untransformed. The large panel (with the [[Kibble#"Faux-parts"|fake sculpted grille]]) underneath his hinged hood pieces also isn't tabbed to the black sliding "spine" behind it, with the results being that his crotch piece tabs only lightly to his waist, detaches easily, dislodges when the front bumper is hinged forward into the indent on its back, and that many packaged Bulkheads are encountered with their flies open.

:The Japanese [[TakaraTomy]] release of Bulkhead features darker green plastic and paint.

:''First Edition'' Bulkhead never made it to shelves in the United States in the initial run, forcing U.S. fans to import the Hasbro version from Canada. Later, [[Toys"R"Us]] would pick up Bulkhead, along with most of the rest of the First Edition line, as part of a huge block of [[exclusive]]s for the US market. However, in summer 2014, he suddenly appeared on Toys"R"Us stores all over Hong Kong in massive quantities.

:This mold would have also been [[redeco]]ed and [[retool]]ed to make ''[[Transformers: Generations (toyline)|Generations]]'' [[Brawn (G1)/toys#Generations|Brawn]]. While that toy was canceled, the retooled mold eventually saw release as ''[[Transformers Cloud|Cloud]]'' [[Brawn (G1)/toys#Cloud|Brawn]].

**''Series / Number'': '''2 / 002'''
**''Takara release date'': [[April 28]], 2012
**''Takara ID number'': '''EZ-08'''
**''Accessories'': Battle Mace

: Part of the first wave of ''[[Transformers: Prime (toyline)|Prime]]'' [[Cyberverse (toyline)|Cyberverse]] Commander Class toys, Bulkhead is a smaller-scale toy, and features translucent plastic panels on his hood, roof, and robot back so that the toy can be illuminated by the electronic lights featured in the larger playsets. He comes with a translucent-blue "battle mace" weapon which features four [[C joint|3mm post]]s and three post-holes all over, allowing it to be held/mounted into holes on his hands, arms, shoulders/vehicle rear, and roof, or store on his back in [[robot mode]]. The [[Hasbro]] release features a pack-in file card.

:In addition to the regular version, Bulkhead was also released in a special "advance release" assortment alongside [[Optimus Prime (WFC)/toys#Cyberverse|Optimus Prime]], [[Megatron (WFC)/toys#Cyberverse|Megatron]], and [[Starscream (WFC)#Cyberverse|Starscream]], with each figure including a mini-DVD that contains the ''[[Transformers: Prime (cartoon)|Transformers: Prime]]'' episode "[[Masters & Students]]". Yes, all four of them come with the same episode.

**''Series / Number'': '''2 / 009'''
**''Accessories'': Blast Cannon

: Part of the fourth wave of ''Prime'' Cyberverse Commander Class toys, Battle Tactics Bulkhead is a redeco of his Cyberverse toy, coming in dark blue with cyan highlights. Instead of his battle mace, he comes with a "blast cannon", a translucent-blue cannon resembling his in-show cannon-barrel. The cannon features two 3mm posts and two mounting points.

**''Series / Number'': '''3 / 003'''
**''Accessories'': Launcher & missile (combine to form Nova Hammer)

: Part of the first wave of ''Prime: Beast Hunters'' Commander Class toys, Bulkhead is a redeco and extensive retool of his Cyberverse toy, transforming into a heavily-modified armored truck with massive spikes on the fenders. He has 3mm ports in many of the same places as the previous toy, and his vehicle doors have been retooled with additional ports. His color scheme is similar to [[Generation 1 continuity family|Generation 1]] [[Roadbuster (G1)|Roadbuster]].

:He now comes with a two-piece "Nova Hammer", a hammer with a very obvious axe-bladed head. The "hammer" can be held at the handle, with the handle featuring a narrow central section to allow it to be safely wedged into Bulkhead's hands, while a thicker 3mm section below the narrow part allows it to be held more securely. The weapon's head can launch the attached handle as a [[missile]] via pressure-launch, and the head/launcher features a 3mm peg-hole and two posts.

:Whether it's due to incomplete [[instructions]] or alternative transformations, Bulkhead's instructions tell [[you]] to leave his wheel "wings" swung down onto his back.

*'''Bulkhead''' (Voyager Class, 2012)
**''Series / Number'': '''01 / 004'''
**''Takara release date'': [[April 28]], 2012
**''Takara ID number'': '''AM-10'''
**''Accessories'': Cannon/wrecking ball & battle ram (Hasbro only), "B.H." Arms Micron (TakaraTomy only)

: Part of the second wave of ''[[Transformers: Prime (toyline)#Robots in Disguise (2012)|Prime: Robots in Disguise]]'' Voyager Class toys, Bulkhead is a new, smaller mold. He now comes with a "battle ram" and a half-translucent cannon with a fully translucent wrecking ball on top, both of which can be mounted (via 5mm posts) on either his roof/back, arms, or hands, with both weapons also featuring an assortment of 5mm peg-holes. The cannon can transform into a spinning wrecking ball that's illuminated by a red LED as a sort of "Energon glow", and as with other Robots in Disguise Voyager Class toys, the deployed weapon cannot lock into place. Interestingly, the [[mouthplate]] on his face is a separate, jointed, unpainted piece that can flip up to cover his face. Unfortunately, he lacks the lower half of his face, so there's nothing to see there.

: His prototype [[stock photography]] lacks the Autobot symbol that's on his right shoulder-pad in the final product. His instructions also incorrectly show his completed vehicle mode's bumper with his crotch flap still flipped up, and they also neglect to mention that his door windows/shoulder pads can open up to help cover his shoulders.

: Part of the third assortment of TakaraTomy ''Prime'' toys, the Japanese release of Bulkhead is cast in metallic plastic, features painted rims, and drops many of his other [[paint operation]]s in favor of customer-applied foil [[sticker]]s. He also has 5mm post-holes added to his vehicle mode doors as part of the [[Arms Micron]] [[gimmick]]. Instead of either of the accessories from the [[Hasbro]] version, he instead comes with his Arms Micron partner, [[B.H.]], who transforms into a larger version of Bulkhead's wrecking ball, though with a short plastic chain with handle on one end, emulating [[Bulkhead (Animated)|''Animated'' Bulkhead]]'s cable-tethered wrecking-ball weapon.

: This mold also served as the basis of the non-toy ''Beast Wars: Uprising'' incarnation of [[Cryotek (Universe)#Beast Wars: Uprising|Cryotek]]. This figure's design also served as a basis as Bulkhead’s new appearance in the ''Robots in Disguise'' 2015 cartoon.

*'''Bulkhead''' (Deluxe Class, 2013)
**''Series / Number'': '''2 / 007'''
**''Accessories'': Dragon Grinder

: Part of the second wave of ''Prime: Beast Hunters'' Deluxe Class toys, Bulkhead is a new, smaller mold, and transforms into a heavily-modified off-road truck with spikes/drills on the fenders. His robot chest features narrow chest windows in a similar style to ''Animated'' Bulkhead. He comes with the "[[Dragon Grinder]]", a circular saw which can be spun at the push of a button. It features a sculpted dragon head on top of its housing, and the weapon can mount via its 5mm peg. Bulkhead features 5mm peg-holes on his hands and forearms, as well as on his roof and doors (which end up on his back in robot mode).

:His "collar" tends to rub against his windshield-hood joint during transformation, which means that the paint on the tip of the collar has a bad habit of being scraped off.

:His instructions incorrectly show his completed vehicle mode's bumper with his crotch flap still flipped up. They also include the [[Tales of the Beast Hunters Chapter 9|ninth chapter]] of the ''[[Tales of the Beast Hunters]]'' series.

:This mold also served as the model for the non-toy ''Beast Wars: Uprising'' incarnation of [[Bighorn#Beast Wars: Uprising|Bighorn]].

: Bulkhead was released as part of the Beast Hunters subline of Construct-Bots, packaged with two smaller partners [[Airazor (Prime)|Airazor]] and [[Wolfang (Prime)|Wolfang]]. He can transform from a military jeep looking thing into a robot. Airazor can transform into an axe for him or Wolfang to wield. He comes with a wrecking ball weapon.

:Part of the first wave of [[TakaraTomy]] ''[[Triple Combination: Transformers Go! (toyline)|Transformers Go!]]'' toys, Hunter Bulkhead is a [[redeco]] of the "Beast Hunters" Deluxe Class Bulkhead toy, and features a predominantly green and gray/silver color scheme.

[[File:HM-toy Bulkhead.jpg|thumb|right|300px|...oh no. We just got the [[Cliffjumper (WFC)|Cliffjumper]] connection. Bulkhead ''no''.]]
* '''Bulkhead''' (Battle Upgrade, 2014)
**''Pieces'': '''15'''
**''Accessories'': Backpack, pile-driver, missile, hammer, "Cliffjumper" left forearm

: Part of the first wave of "Battle Upgrade" ''[[Hero Mashers]]'' toys, Bulkhead is a non-transforming action figure with ratchet-joints, about six inches tall. His design is mostly based on [[Transformers: Prime (franchise)|''Prime'']] Bulkhead, but with the gentle and caring mug of [[Transformers Animated (franchise)|''Animated'']] [[Bulkhead (Animated)|Bulkhead]]. He has multiple peg-holes all over that can be used to mount any ''Hero Mashers'' accessory. As a first-wave figure, he has extra ankle articulation that is not present in later waves (a cut that was made to all ''Hero Mashers'' lines, not just the ''Transformers''-branded ones).

: He is designed with a removable head, forearms, thighs, and lower legs, all of which use the same clip-peg/hole joint. This means his pieces can be swapped around in any order, as well as swapped with any other ''Hero Mashers'' figure... which includes figures from [[Marvel Comics]], ''[[Star Wars (franchise)|Star Wars]]'', and ''[[Jurassic Park|Jurassic World]]'', meaning you can make some pretty freaky combinations.

: While he is (roughly) the same size as a standard Hero Masher, his larger [[size class|price point]] is made up for with a lot more parts and gimmicks. His right forearm has a built-in spring-loaded missile launcher. Both of his hands are removable, which allows for accessories to be placed in his wrist sockets. He also comes with [[Cliffjumper (G1)/toys#Hero Mashers|Cliffjumper]]'s left arm, which is a [[redeco]] of ''Hero Mashers'' [[Bumblebee (G1)/toys#Hero Mashers|Bumblebee]]'s.

:His forearm with the built-in launcher is included with Battle Upgrade [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys#Hero Mashers|Optimus Prime]], just recolored, gimmick-neutered and labeled belonging to [[Ultra Magnus (G1)/toys#Hero Mashers|Ultra Magnus]].

**''Accessories:'' [[Energon]] machine gun, battle mace, tarp cover

: Part of the first wave of ''[[Transformers Generations: Legacy|Legacy]]'' Voyager Class toys, Prime Universe Bulkhead is a CHUG-ified version of the character that transforms into an approximation of an RMMV HX tactical truck. He comes with a mace that can peg into his left arm to replace his hand, a tarp to cover up the rear of his vehicle mode that can also be used as a shield and can hold items with its 5mm ports, and a clear-blue Energon machine gun, which can mount into his shoulder.

:This figure was revealed by IGN as a teaser for the Legacy line on [[October 20]], 2021 <ref>https://www.ign.com/articles/new-transformers-generations-legacy-figure-line-announced-by-hasbro</ref>, prior to PulseCon 2021.

:Part of the "Transformers x [[McDonald's]]" promotion for ''[[Transformers: Dark of the Moon (film)|Dark of the Moon]]'', "Shake Bulkhead" is a "phone charm" toy that looks like a tall cool frosty shake, but pops open to reveal ''Prime'' Bulkhead.

First you had to buy a Happy Meal on [[July 30]]th or [[July 31|31]]st, which netted you a ''Dark of the Moon'' [[Optimus Prime (Movie)/merchandise#McDonald's|Optimus Prime]] or [[Bumblebee (Movie)/merchandise#McDonald's|Bumblebee]] toy and a "weekend exclusive Special DVD and [[MechTech]] Sheet with red ticket". Said ticket was then traded in at participating toy stores when buying any [[Transformers: Dark of the Moon (toyline)|''Dark of the Moon'' toy]] to get one of the two charms. (Completing the set with "[[Bumblebee (WFC)/toys#McDonald's|Potato Bumblebee]]" was considerably easier, at least.)

==Notes==
[[Image:SpeedStars StealthForce MiniChangers OilPanVersusBulkhead.jpg|thumb|300px|Bulkhead was originally going to appear in ''Dark of the Moon'' instead of Ironhide, but they thought it'd confuse kids to have him die in the movie if he was still alive in the show.]]
*A figurine of Bulkhead was released as part of the ''[[Speed Stars]]'' line. Being branded a ''Dark of the Moon'' toy means we consider him [[Bulkhead (DOTM)|a separate movieverse incarnation of the character]], but now you know!
*An almost-realized [[BotCon]] [[exclusive]] from [[Fun Publications]] was a redeco of [[#First Edition|''First Edition'' Bulkhead]] into [[Bruton]].<ref>[http://www.toycollectors.com.au/bc14/bc14br.html BotCon 2014 attendee report]</ref>

===Arms Up Modes===
In the Japanese ''Prime'' toyline, Bulkhead has named powered-up modes when given various [[Arms Micron]]s in certain configurations:

*'''Berserk Mode''' (バーサークモード ''Bāsāku Mōdo'')
**''Arms Microns'': Arc, B.B., B.H., C.L., O.P., R.A.
: Seen on his box-back photo, in this mode Bulkhead holds the [[Nebula Scythe]], with [[R.A.]] attached to his right arm, [[B.B. (Prime)|B.B.]] on his right shoulder, and [[C.L.]] attached to the mounting point behind his head.

*'''Shootgize Galaxy Launcher''' (シュートジアイズガラクシーランチャー ''Shūtojiaizu Garakushī Ranchā'')
**''Arms Microns'': Arc, B.B., B.H., C.L., Gora, O.P., Zori
: Yyyyeah. Revealed in the ''[[From the Cybertron Satellite, Transformers Division|Cybertron Satellite]]'' portion of "[[Scrapheap (episode)|Freezing Transformation!? Terror of the Minicons]]", in this battle mode Bulkhead holds the [[Galaxy Launcher]] Super Combo Weapon, while he's also got O.P. on his left forearm, B.B. on his back, and inexplicably [[Gora]] on his right forearm with [[Zori]] also on his back. And as far as can be told, "Shootgize" seems to be a bad portmanteau of "shoot" and "energize".

Death

2021-10-10T15:33:04Z

B-712: /* Disintegration */

{{disambig2|the end of life|the Horseman of Unicron|Airazor (Armada)}}
[[File:Battleofautobotcity.jpg|upright=1.77|thumb|And lo, the children did weep. They wept hard too.]]
''Transformers'' is a children's franchise, but at its core, it's a story of war. This means that the '''death''' of major and minor characters sometimes figures into the fiction.

Given the ambiguous nature of [[Transformer]] physiology, there is very little consistency regarding what is fatal to a Transformer, even within a single storyline. Damage that one Transformer might shrug off can prove fatal to another, or even to the same character in a different story. Sometimes just a laser blast or two will do the trick. Other times, characters survive being melted, [[Waspinator (BW)|crushed into cubes]], and even [[Demolishor (Armada)|utterly disintegrated]]. It does not take a terribly cynical viewer to conclude that the threshold of survival is generally determined by the needs of the plot.

The out-of-universe reasons for a character's death can vary from plot development to the arrival of [[To sell toys|new toys]]. Conveniently enough for writers who are beholden to the whims of a toy company, the majority of Transformers characters are machines, which means that death isn't necessarily permanent. Across the various universes, characters that appear to have been killed have been known to pop up alive again at a later date, or go through some sort of resurrection.

{{quote|"How can you all be so cold and unfeeling? He died a hero!"<br>"Don't you even have mechanical hearts?"<br>"The humans don't understand! Our form of life is vastly different from theirs!"|[[Spider-Man]], [[Sparkplug Witwicky]], and [[Optimus Prime (G1)/Marvel Comics continuity|Optimus Prime]]|"[[Prisoner of War!]]"|noquote=true}}

==In-fiction causes of death==
[[File:DEATH.jpg|left|thumb|upright=2.2|[[Scorponok (G1)/Marvel Comics continuity|Scorponok]] is just as puzzled as the rest of us.]]
There is little consistency in what can kill a Transformer. Sometimes it takes just a shot. Other times, even totally annihilating a Transformer's body still doesn't do the trick. Even the most basic method of killing, which is to destroy or otherwise cause the loss of a Transformer's [[spark]], varies quite a bit in its details from story to story, character to character, and series to series.

However, over time there has been some convergence of concepts regarding Transformer design across the various franchises and storylines. The concept of Sparks as a Transformer's driving life force has become nearly universal, and with it, the notion that loss of Spark equals death. Various [[2005 IDW continuity]] comics, particularly ''[[The Transformers: More than Meets the Eye|More Than Meets The Eye]]'', have delved deeply into this, positing that a Transformer can die if their Spark, brain or (in a new and unique twist) transformation cog are sufficiently damaged, known as "[[Rossum's Trinity‎]]". MTMTE also makes note of the difficulties in killing a Transformer, and how things like decapitation may not be lethal in the right circumstances.

If one is so inclined, these concepts can be applied retroactively to many, if not all, older stories - so that various means of death described below can be seen simply as the means of inflicting the requisite damage on a Transformer's vital bits.

When a Transformer dies, the loss of their life force (or artistic convention, out here in the real world) often results in them turning gray. The most well-known example by far is Optimus Prime's death in the animated movie; Prowl can also be glimpsed turning gray as he falls during the shuttle assault. This idea has shown up in a few other places, such as [[Transform and Roll Out#Part 3|the ''Animated'' cartoon]] and [[World, Shut Your Mouth Part 3: Predestination: A Beginner's Guide|the ''More Than Meets the Eye'' comics]], the latter of which [[Sardines|coined]] the term "[[aggressive depigmentation]]" to describe the phenomenon.

{{bigquote|This was almost too easy, Starscream!|[[Megatron (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Megatron]] (like the fandom) is surprised to find how easily Autobots die, ''[[The Transformers: The Movie]]''}}

[[File:Tftm1986a.jpg|upright=1.1|thumb|We're here aboard the Autobot shuttle, where we've secretly replaced Brawn's hyper-dense metal armor plating with styrene plastic. Let's see if anyone can tell the difference.]]

Like humans, Transformers can be killed by damage caused by energy, projectile, and chemical weapons. Just how many shots it takes is widely variable, however.
*In the [[The Transformers (cartoon)|original ''The Transformers'' cartoon]]:
**Many casualties of the [[Battle of Autobot City]] (and its run-up), including [[Prowl (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Prowl]], [[Brawn (G1)|Brawn]], [[Ratchet (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Ratchet]], [[Ironhide (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Ironhide]], and [[Optimus Prime (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Optimus Prime]], are victims of energy weapons. {{storylink|The Transformers: The Movie}} This was quite a change from the cartoon's M.O., wherein the same characters routinely got shot and blasted all the time and shrugged it off, or at worst spent some time in the repair bay. Brawn and Prowl (whose tech specs show endurances of 9) both went down after ''one shot''.
**[[Ultra Magnus (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Ultra Magnus]] subsequently "dies" after being shot a few times by the [[Sweep (G1)|Sweeps]], exploding into pieces. He is soon revived by the [[Junkion (species)|Junkions]], however. {{storylink|The Transformers: The Movie}}
**In the Japanese continuity, Ultra Magnus dies ''again'', for real this time, after [[Sixshot (G1)|Sixshot]] shoots him a few times. {{storylink|Ultra Magnus Dies!!}}
*In the [[Marvel Comics continuity|Marvel comics]]:
**[[Impactor (G1)|Impactor]] is cut down by a single head shot from [[Macabre]]. {{storylink|Target: 2006}}
**Most deaths in the ''[[Transformers: Generation 2 (Marvel)|Generation 2]]'' book occur from energy weapons, such as [[Red Alert (G1)|Red Alert]], {{storylink|Devices and Desires! (Marvel)|Devices and Desires!}} as well as numerous generics. {{storylink|War Without End!}} Quite a few victims explode spectacularly after being shot, including [[Tantrum (G1)|Tantrum]], {{storylink|The Gathering Darkness}} [[Runamuck (G1)|Runamuck]], [[Quake (G1)|Quake]], {{storylink|New Dawn}} and [[Smokescreen (G1)|Smokescreen]]. {{storylink|Escalation!}}
*In the ''[[Beast Wars: Transformers (cartoon)|Beast Wars]]'' cartoon:
**[[Dinobot (BW)|Dinobot]] dies after incurring severe damage from numerous [[Predacon (BW)|Predacon]] weapons. {{storylink|Code of Hero}} Other characters have survived similar or worse levels of damage, but the episode gave a reason: Dinobot refuses to go into [[stasis lock]], which his onboard computer warns could "result in loss of Spark" if he keeps it up.
**[[Tigerhawk]] is disintegrated by the main cannon of the starship ''[[Nemesis (G1)|Nemesis]]''. The same cannon subsequently blasts [[Inferno (BW)|Inferno]] and [[Quickstrike (BW)|Quickstrike]], apparently killing them, though their "death" may be permanent simply because there was nobody around to put them back together - or at least, [[Waspinator (BW)|nobody who cared to]]. {{storylink|Nemesis Part 2}}

===Big explosions===
{{bigquote|They're going to blow us all to pieces! [[Guardian (Marvel)|Guardian]]'s booby-trapped - packed with enough explosives to level this whole mountain!|[[Prowl (G1)|Prowl]], "[[The Wrath of Grimlock!]]"}}

[[File:Afterdeath-gameoverman.jpg|upright=1.1|thumb|"[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gw98ARXfcqk You are dead, dead, DEAAD!]"]]
Transformers characters often assume that explosions are more lethal than they really are; characters survive explosions all the time. An explosion's messy nature makes a good "out" for a writer to fake a character's death. {{storylink|The Wrath of Grimlock!}} {{storylink|Gone but Not Forgotten!}} {{storylink|The Agenda (Part 2)}} Nevertheless, a few characters have been permanently killed by explosions. (This list omits characters who exploded from within, like Ultra Magnus up above.)
*In the Marvel comics:
**[[Straxus (G1)|Straxus]] is the victim of an interdimensionally triggered explosion that destroys his body. {{storylink|The Bridge to Nowhere!}} However, in the UK continuity he survives as a raggedy, bodiless head. {{storylink|...The Harder They Die!}}
**In an alternate future, a wounded [[Inferno (G1)|Inferno]] dies in the fiery explosion of a crashing shuttlecraft. {{storylink|The Legacy of Unicron!}}
**[[Roadbuster (G1)|Roadbuster]] is killed when a prototype [[pathblaster]] exploded in his face. {{storylink|Time Wars}}
**[[Finback]] is presumably killed in the explosion of a huge gun battery. [[Misfire (G1)|Misfire]] tried to warn him off, and may have been killed in the same explosion. {{storylink|On the Edge of Extinction!}}
*''Beast Wars'' cartoon:
**[[Optimus Primal (BW)/Beast Wars cartoon continuity|Optimus Primal]] is blown to bits — terminally so — by the [[unspace|transwarp]] explosion that destroyed the [[Planet Buster]]. {{storylink|Other Voices, Part 2}}
**[[Depth Charge (BW)|Depth Charge]] is killed by the explosion that resulted from [[Rampage (BW)|Rampage]]'s death (either his exploding spark, or the exploding energon shard that pierced it.) {{storylink|Nemesis Part 1}}
*Several of the [[Beast Era]] [[Wrecker]]s ([[Sonar (BW)|Sonar]], [[Spittor (BW)|Spittor]], the [[Deployer (BM)|Deployers]]) are destroyed when part of their ship explodes with them in it. {{storylink|Betrayal}}
*Energon: [[Bruticus Maximus (Energon)|Bruticus Maximus]] is killed when Storm Jet causes a massive explosion that engulfed them both.
*''Prime'':
**[[Makeshift (Prime)|Makeshift]] and the surrounding [[Vehicon (Prime)|Vehicon]]s are blown up by a grenade attached by the Autobots. Both the Vehicons and Makeshift are killed in the blast. {{storylink|Con Job}} <ref>(According to an interview at [[BotCon 2011]] with the ''Prime'' show runners, Makeshift was deemed too overpowered to be a regular in the show, so they killed him off at the end of the episode.)</ref>
** [[Hardshell]] is killed by [[Miko Nakadai|Miko]] when she fires two missiles at him, blowing him up. {{storylink|Hurt}}
*''Movie Continuty'':
**[[Long Haul (ROTF)|Long Haul]], [[Scrapper (ROTF)|Scrapper]], and several Decepticon Protoforms are killed by a human air strike in [[Egypt]]. {{storylink|Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (film)|Revenge of the Fallen}}
**[[Crankcase (DOTM)|Crankcase]] blows up when Ironhide kicks him into a gas station. {{storylink|Transformers: Dark of the Moon (film)|Dark of the Moon}}
**[[Blitzwing (BB)|Blitzwing]] gets blown to bits when Bumblebee shoves his own missile into his chest and detonates it. {{storylink|Bumblebee (film)|Bumblebee}}

===Impact trauma===
Falling off a cliff or mountainside or tall building is usually just as fatal to Transformers as it is to, say... Wile E. Coyote. Only on rare occasion does it result in death:
*''[[Transformers: Classics|Classics]]'' continuity: [[Hacksaw]] meets his end by falling from a huge communications tower. {{storylink|The New World}}
*[[2005 IDW continuity]]:
** [[Doubledealer]] is shot, falls off a mountain and smashed to bits on impact. {{storylink|Spotlight: Doubledealer}}
** [[Sentinel Prime (G1)|Infinitus]] gets knocked down a very big hole by [[Beak]] and dies. {{storylink|Last Light (issue)|Last Light}}
*Movie continuity:
**[[Devastator (ROTF)|Devastator]] falls off the [[Great Pyramid of Giza]] after a [[rail gun]] blows his arm apart. He tumbles back down the monument and collapses as he dies. {{storylink|Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (film)|Revenge of the Fallen}}
**[[Barricade (Movie)|Barricade]] is smashed to pieces and killed by being flung into a freeway column. {{storylink|Movie Adaptation issue 4|Movie Adaptation Issue Number Four}}
**[[Hatchet (DOTM)|Hatchet]] meets his end when [[Dino]] sends him crashing into a car.
*The [[Beast (G1)|Beast]] falls off a cliff and shatters. {{storylink|The Beast Within Part 2, Consequences}} At least, we hope that's where and how it ended.
*''[[Transformers: Prime (cartoon)|Prime]]'': [[Skyquake (Prime)|Skyquake]] crash-lands after [[Bumblebee (WFC)|Bumblebee]] punched out vital components in his [[alternate mode]], reducing his body to a partially transformed scrapheap.

===Disassembly===
[[File:Jazz DyingAction.jpg|upright=1.1|thumb|"HERE'S what I think of your resemblance to your G1 counterpart!"]]
Taking a Transformer apart into its component parts - or ripping them to pieces - can occasionally kill them:
*Marvel comics:
**[[Bludgeon (G1)|Bludgeon]] meets this fate in an alternate future, when [[Swoop (G1)/Marvel Comics continuity|Swoop]] uses a [[repair spider]] to pull him apart into his component pieces. {{storylink|Another Time & Place}}
**A future version of [[Ultra Magnus (G1)/Marvel Comics continuity|Ultra Magnus]] may have been killed when a group of Decepticons mobbed him and ripped him up. {{storylink|Time Wars}}

===Crushing===
[[File:Edgeofextinction-hardheadbombburst.jpg|thumb|DO NOT WANT]]
Quite a few characters have been crushed into deactivation:
*In the Marvel comics:
**[[Highbrow (G1)|Highbrow]] is smashed between [[Unicron/Generation 1|Unicron]]'s palms, while [[Bomb-Burst (G1)|Bomb-Burst]] and [[Hardhead (G1)|Hardhead]] meet a similar fate when Unicron steps on them. {{storylink|On the Edge of Extinction!}}

They're made of [[living metal|metal]]; therefore, with enough heat or sufficiently acidic material, they can melt. This is one of the more fool-proof methods of killing a Transformer; few, if any, have survived it.

**It is possible that an acid bath from (naturally) [[Blot (G1)|Blot]] offlined [[Tracks (G1)|Tracks]] [[Makin' Tracks!|(for a while anyway)]]. {{storylink|Dark Star}}
**[[Scorponok (G1)/Marvel Comics continuity|Scorponok]] is partially melted by Unicron's flame-breath and subsequently dies. {{storylink|On the Edge of Extinction!}}
**The [[Cybertronian (faction)|Cybertronians]] use some kind of acid to rather messily eradicate some of their Decepticon ancestors, including [[Stranglehold]]. {{storylink|New Dawn}}
*In the Beast Era cartoons:
**[[Terrorsaur (BW)|Terrorsaur]] and [[Scorponok (BW)|Scorponok]] are apparently melted to death after tumbling into a lava pit within the [[Darksyde (BW)|Predacon base]]. {{storylink|Aftermath}}
**Optimus Primal's body is seemingly melted into the floor after his climactic face-off with [[Megatron (BW)/Beast Wars cartoon continuity|Megatron]]. Considering how many god-like forces were unleashed and conflicting during the battle, his demise may be due to more than simple temperature-induced melting. {{storylink|Fallout (episode)|Fallout}}
*According to [[G.B. Blackrock|Garrison Blackrock]], the [[living metal]] that constitutes Cybertronian biology can be broken down using a cocktail of complicated polymers such as [[w:polyhydroxybutyrate|polyhydroxybutyrate]]; the process — one assumes — proving fatal to the Transformer in question. {{storylink|Conquerors Part 1: Aphelion|Aphelion}}
*''Cyberverse'' cartoon: [[Drift (Cyberverse)|Drift]] is implied to have been melted by toxic Energon waste, as [[Hot Rod (Cyberverse)|Hot Rod]] barely survived the experience. {{storylink|Battle For Cybertron III}} {{storylink|The Dead End}}

===Disintegration===
{{bigquote|I saw the end! They died in a cosmic funeral pyre!|[[Shawn Berger]], "[[Megatron's Master Plan, Part 2]]"}}

[[File:Schismatic-KupDies.jpg|thumb|"Ironhide, I don't feel so good..."]]

Plasma, energy fields, and stellar atmospheres can all utterly destroy a Transformer's body. Like being melted, being reduced to one's component molecules would seem to be a surefire way of getting killed, but quite a few characters seem able to survive the process as [[ghost]]s and/or disembodied sparks:
*Generation 1 cartoon: [[Starscream (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Starscream]]'s spectacular death at the hands of [[Galvatron (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Galvatron]] might be categorized as incineration. {{storylink|The Transformers: The Movie}}
*Quite a few characters met this fate in the Unicron Trilogy, but all survived it in some fashion:
**[[Megatron (Armada)/Cartoon continuity|Megatron]]'s spark persisted within his burnt-out body when he was dropped into the exploding Unicron. {{storylink|Mortal Combat}} {{storylink|Megatron Resurrected}}
**[[Demolishor (Armada)|Demolishor]]'s body was obliterated by an expanding [[energon grid]], but his spark survived the process and was placed in a new body. {{storylink|Go for Unicron!}}
**[[Inferno (Energon)|Inferno]] was destroyed when he threw himself into a star, but his spark was salvaged by the Autobots and, again, placed in a new body. {{storylink|Farewell Inferno}}
**And finally, Megatron (Galvatron, whatever) threw himself into Primus's new energon sun to prevent Unicron from possessing him, killing himself yet again. {{storylink|The Sun}} This death was so inconsequential that his subsequent resurrection wasn't even explained! {{storylink|Fallen (episode)|Fallen}}
**Megatron was disintegrated ''again'', {{storylink|Cybertron (episode)|Cybertron}} before he returned to life thanks to unholy powers of the [[Armor of Unicron]]. {{storylink|Darkness (episode)|Darkness}} After being stabbed through the Spark by [[Rhisling]], his body disintegrated as he passed on into the next life. {{storylink|Unfinished}}
*[[Cosmic Rust (disease)|Cosmic Rust]] causes a Transformer's body to disintegrate to nothing:
**The [[Thirteenth Legion]] died of Cosmic Rust. {{storylink|Cosmic Rust (episode)|Cosmic Rust}}
**[[Ironhide (Movie)|Ironhide]] dies after several shots from [[Sentinel Prime (ROTF)|Sentinel]]'s Cosmic Rust Blaster, though the big hole they left in his torso couldn't have helped much either. {{storylink|Transformers: Dark of the Moon (film)|Dark of the Moon}}
**Exposure to even a single [[Nervous bot|carrier]] of the disease has been known to wipe out entire planets. [[Blurr (Cyberverse)|Blurr]] was one of its victims, along with the rest of [[Velocitron]]. {{storylink|Terminal Velocity}}
*In the [[2005 IDW continuity]], [[magic]] is one of the few things that can reliably wound or kill a Transformer; the energies unleashed are anathema to mechanical life, and Transformers exposed to such power soon begin to crumble and die. Casualties of this method include [[Kup (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Kup]] {{storylink|Schismatic}} and [[Quickswitch]]. {{storylink|Good Men}}

===Consumption===
{{bigquote|...If we don't find the Matrix, some bad guy's gonna ''eat'' us! Right?|Longtooth, "[[Deadly Obsession]]"}}

[[File:Wreckers Mutants.jpg|upright=1.1|thumb|The shocking death of the barely-seen guys with hardly any lines!]]
[[File:Rocky mecannibal bartender marvel uk 240.jpg|upright=1.1|thumb|Cannibalism is hilarious, kids!]]
[[File:TFTM Unicron Digestion.jpg|upright=1.1|thumb]]
Getting eaten is essentially being torn apart, crushed, and melted all in a row, and it's usually fatal. Quite a few critters in the multiverse are equipped to devour giant robots:
*In the G1 cartoon:
**Various life forms are routinely devoured by the [[Sharkticon (species)|Sharkticon]]s on Quintessa. These include [[Kranix (G1)|Kranix]], a mechanical life form, though not a Transformer. [[Kup (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Kup]] and [[Hot Rod (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Hot Rod]] would have suffered this fate as well, but fought their way free. {{storylink|The Transformers: The Movie}}
**Quite a few Transformers found their way into Unicron's gullet, though many survived the experience. {{storylink|The Transformers: The Movie}}
*In the Marvel comic:
**[[Scraplet]]s are a mechanical disease - tiny robots that fed on Transformers. A hapless freighter pilot dies after being infected, and quite a few other 'bots only narrowly survived being infected. {{storylink|Crater Critters}}
**The [[Mecannibal]]s eat robots routinely, including quite a few Transformers during their sojourn on [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]]. {{storylink|All the Familiar Faces!}} {{storylink|Out to Lunch!}} There is some indication that they can actually reconstitute their victims from their "recycled" parts, though this is never explicitly shown. {{storylink|Recipe for Disaster!}}
**Unicron skewers [[Brainstorm (G1)|Brainstorm]] and eats him. {{storylink|On the Edge of Extinction!}}
**The subsurface-dwelling [[demon]]s devour [[Runabout (G1)|Runabout]]. {{storylink|On the Edge of Extinction!}}
**The Swarm "devours" innumerable Cybertronians and a handful of older-generation Transformers as well, though this is through a molecular process almost akin to incineration. {{storylink|Swarm (issue)|Swarm}} {{storylink|Total War!}} {{storylink|A Rage in Heaven!}}
*The Sharkticons kill two of the [[Mutant (BW)|Mutants]] by gobbling them up. Or ripping them apart. Or both. We don't really know. {{storylink|Betrayal}}
*[[Flanker]] is eaten up and killed by the [[Insecticon (G1)|"Deluxe" Insecticons]].
*In the live-action films:
**[[Grimlock (AOE)|Grimlock]] and [[Scorn]] eat various [[KSI Sentry|KSI Sentries]] and at least one [[KSI Boss]] {{storylink|Transformers: Age of Extinction (film)|Age of Extinction}}
**Grimlock also made a snack out of [[Dreadbot]]. {{storylink|Transformers: The Last Knight (film)|The Last Knight}}

===Decapitation===
{{main|Decapitation}}

[[File:Cyclonus death.jpg|thumb|upright=0.85|Ahhhh, there we go...]]

Sometimes cutting a Transformer's head off is fatal. Sometimes!
*In the Marvel comics:
**The Megatron clone kills Cyclonus by ripping his head off. {{storylink|Dry Run!}}
**Several of the Wreckers are destroyed by having their heads ripped or blasted off, including Twin Twist and Topspin, respectively. {{storylink|Time Wars}}
**[[Razorclaw (G1)|Razorclaw]] has his head cut off by a propeller fired by [[Leadfoot (G2)|Leadfoot]], presumably (given the ''Generation 2'' book's emphasis on body count) killing him. {{storylink|A Rage in Heaven!}}
*In the movie continuity:
**Characters frequently die by decapitation of some form: [[Bonecrusher (Movie)|Bonecrusher]], {{storylink|Transformers (film)|Transformers}} and [[Grindor (ROTF)|Grindor]] {{storylink|Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (film)|Revenge of the Fallen}} are particularly notable examples. [[Optimus Prime (Movie)|Optimus Prime]] LOVES doing this.
**Decapitation is a mere inconvenience for [[Frenzy (Movie)|Frenzy]] the first time. The second time, when the blow actually destroys most of his head, proves fatal.
**[[Megatron (Movie)|Megatron]] is decapitated in the third movie. [[Wheeljack (Movie)|Que]] and [[Ironhide (Movie)|Ironhide]]'s heads fall off when they die, possibly to add finality to their demises. {{storylink|Transformers: Dark of the Moon (film)|Dark of the Moon}}
**[[Onslaught (ROTF)|Onslaught]] met his end after losing his head to [[Drift (AOE)|Drift]]'s sword. {{storylink|Transformers: The Last Knight (film)|The Last Knight}}
*In the 2005 IDW continuity:
**The heads of [[Springarm]] and [[Wheelarch]] are removed and then mockingly put on display to creep out [[Optimus Prime (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Orion Pax]]. {{storylink|Chaos Theory Part 2}}
*In the Aligned continuity, Vehicons and Insecticons are frequently murdered by decapitation.
*In the 2019 IDW continuity: [[Quake (G1)|Quake]] loses his head and his spark to [[Bumblebee (G1)|Bumblebee]]. {{storylink|Rise of the Decepticons: Prisoners|Prisoners}}

===Destruction of brain===
{{bigquote|Next strike in the neural cluster, yes? Weakest spot on ''all'' Transformers...|[[Death's Head (G1)|Death's Head]], "[[Fire on High!]]"}}
[[File:K-PLUTCH.jpg|thumb|upright=1.1|Roadbuster has spiders on the brain.]]
In the early days of the franchise, a Transformer's life force was sometimes understood to be entirely contained within their [[brain module]], most prominently in the Marvel comics. Destroying the brain would kill the Transformer. This premise was eventually modified to incorporate the more esoteric concept of [[spark]]s.
*In the Marvel comics:
**In an alternate future, [[Shockwave (G1)/Marvel Comics continuity|Shockwave]] is blasted by [[Death's Head (G1)|Death's Head]], who kills him by extracting and crushing his brain module. {{storylink|The Legacy of Unicron!}}
**The [[Throttlebot]]s ''avoid'' death by having their brain modules removed from their bodies shortly before their bodies are destroyed (by crushing). {{storylink|Toy Soldiers!}}
*Movie continuity:
**Optimus rips Grindor's head apart with two hooks. {{storylink|Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (film)|Revenge of the Fallen}}
**[[Soundwave (ROTF)|Soundwave]], [[Laserbeak (DOTM)|Laserbeak]], and [[Starscream (Movie)|Starscream]]'s heads are blown to bits by explosives or other weapons.
**Optimus Prime kills Sentinel Prime by shooting him in the head with Megatron's shotgun. {{storylink|Transformers: Dark of the Moon (film)|Dark of the Moon}}
**[[Nitro Zeus]] dies when his head gets blown off by Bumblebee. {{storylink|Transformers: The Last Knight (film)|The Last Knight}}
[[File:DOTM-Soundwavedeath.jpg|thumb|upright=1.1|How exactly is [[Kinetic Solutions Incorporated|KSI]] supposed to download his brain when there's no brain left?]]
*In the 2005 IDW continuity, the brain module is part of [[Rossum's Trinity]] and its destruction will cause the destruction of both the spark and the [[transformation cog]], killing the Cybertronian in question:
**[[Overlord (G1)|Overlord]] blasts [[Rotorstorm (G1)|Rotorstorm]] right in the head, destroying his brain module. {{storylink|Last Stand of the Wreckers issue 4}}
**Impactor kills [[Snare]] by crushing his brain module. {{storylink|Last Stand of the Wreckers issue 4}}
**[[Squadron X]] are all shot in the head. {{storylink|Last Stand of the Wreckers issue 4}}
**In the [[Functionist Universe]], every Cybertronian possesses an [[obsolescence chip]] that can be remotely detonated, destroying their heads. [[Rewind (G1)|Rewind]] and all other Cybertronians with [[data slug]] alt-modes are killed in a [[mass recall]]. {{storylink|The Custom-Made Now - An Elegant Chaos Prologue|The Custom-Made Now}}
**[[Trailbreaker (G1)|Trailbreaker]] dies when [[Kaon (DJD)|Kaon]] smashes his brain module against his own forcefield. {{storylink|Births, Deaths, and Interventions}}
**[[Tarantulas (BW)|Tarantulas]] uses his [[size changing]] powers to blow open [[Roadbuster (G1)|Roadbuster]]'s head from the inside out. {{storylink|Sins of the Wreckers issue 4}}
**[[Oiler]] has his head sliced in two by a [[Junkion (species)|Junkion]]. {{storylink|New Cybertron Part 5: Future Glories Lost|Future Glories Lost}}
**Kup exploits [[Razorclaw (G1)|Razorclaw]]'s "secret weakness" to defeat him... shooting him in the head and blowing his cranium to bits. (Kup points out that it's most people's secret weakness.) {{storylink|The Iron Klaw}}
**[[Adaptus]] met his end when [[Solomus]] drilled directly into his brain. {{storylink|Crucible (Part 5): The Unremembering|The Unremembering}}
*''Beast Wars: Uprising''
**The [[Resistance]] use a device to short-circuit the remnants of [[Cerebros (G1)|Cerebros]]'s consciousness, frying the [[Cyberdroid]]s that contain his tripartite brain. {{storylink|Head Games}}

===Destruction of spark===
{{bigquote|RAW energon! Right through your twisted spark!|Depth Charge to Rampage, "[[Nemesis Part 1]]"}}
[[File:Skyfallwontbethereforit.jpg|thumb|upright=1.1|And then he hung Skyfall from his ceiling.]]
Getting stabbed right through the spark is almost always fatal:
*In ''Beast Wars'': The supposedly immortal Rampage is killed when Depth Charge pierces his spark with an energon blade. {{storylink|Nemesis Part 1}}
*''[[Transcendent Technomorph|TransTech]]'': [[Skyfall (Cybertron)|Skyfall]] dies when [[Alpha Trion (SG)|Alpha Trion]] rams his [[sword]] right through his chest. {{storylink|Transcendent: Part 6}}
*''Energon'': [[Constructicon Maximus]] dies when [[Storm Jet (Energon)|Storm Jet]] impales and crushes his spark.
*''Cybertron'': [[Megatron (Armada)#Cybertron cartoon|Galvatron]] dies when [[Optimus Prime (Armada)/Cartoon continuity|Optimus Prime]] impales him with [[Rhisling]]. {{storylink|Unfinished}}
*Movie continuity:
**[[Transformers (Titan Magazine)|Titan's Movie comics]]: Transformers have forcefields shielding their sparks, which can be externalized to protect bodywork. Jazz loved doing this, leaving him far more vulnerable to death by destruction of spark than he would otherwise be. {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 6|Lost in Space 4: Jazz}}
**Optimus Prime dies when Megatron stabs him through the chest with his death-lock pincer, followed by a blast from his fusion cannon through the spark chamber. [[The Fallen]] also meets his end when a resurrected Optimus punches through his chest and crushes his spark. {{storylink|Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (film)|Revenge of the Fallen}}
*''Cyberverse'': [[Slipstream (Cyberverse)|Slipstream]] is killed when [[Bludgeon (Cyberverse)|Bludgeon]] stabs her in the back through her spark. {{storylink|Parley}}

That's not the only way to destroy a spark either:

*''Beast Machines'' continuity: [[Rhinox (BW)|Rhinox]] — already reduced to a spark within the matrix — ceases to be when Megatron annihilates his spark from existence. {{storylink|Singularity Ablyss}}
*2005 IDW continuity:
**[[Tarn (DJD)|Tarn]] has modified his vocal processor so that he can get his voice into synch with a spark's pulse and then get it to stop. {{storylink|Rules of Disengagement (issue)|Rules of Disengagement}}
**The [[killswitch]] built by Chief Justice Tyrest worked by scrambling the Matrix derived sparkcode shared by every constructed cold spark.
**Sentinel Prime wanted Sovereign to power up by eating [[Outrigger]]'s spark, a power shared by the [[Titan Master]]s. This would have killed the [[Circle of Light]] member. {{storylink|Ten to Midnight}}
*''Beast Wars: Uprising'': The Vehicons destroy the sparks of those they inject with a nano-virus. The victim is simultaneously turned into another Vehicon in the process.

===Loss of spark===
{{bigquote|Warning. Further expenditure will result in permanent loss of spark. Stasis lock ''must'' commence.|[[Dinobot (BW)|Dinobot]]'s internal computer, "[[Code of Hero]]"}}
[[File:Jetstorm with extractor.jpg|thumb|upright=1.1|Lost, stolen, whatever...]]
Sometimes sparks can survive outside of a body; sometimes they cannot. In the Beast Era, there is some indication that a spark left outside a body will soon begin to return to the Matrix/AllSpark/another dimension.
*When Dinobot expires after his final battle, his Spark is seen exiting his body. The implication is that a sufficiently damaged body can no longer hold a spark within this continuity. {{storylink|Code of Hero}}
*''Beast Machines'' subsequently showed living sparks existing outside of bodies on a regular basis. The sparkless bodies were simply considered shells, rather than "dead", due to the fact that the sparks were forcibly removed with a [[spark extractor]].
*''Animated'' cartoon: [[Prowl (Animated)|Prowl]] dies when he intentionally relinquishes his own spark. {{storylink|Endgame, Part II}}
*Movie continuity:
**[[Jetfire (Movie)|Jetfire]] rips out his own spark chamber to give Optimus a fighting chance. {{storylink|Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (film)|Revenge of the Fallen}}
**[[The Fallen]] dies when Optimus punches through his chest and crushes his spark. {{storylink|Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (film)|Revenge of the Fallen}}
**Lockdown executes a wounded Ratchet by removing his spark. {{storylink|Transformers: Age of Extinction (film)|Age of Extinction}}
*''Cyberverse'' cartoon:
**In ''Cyberverse''<nowiki>'s</nowiki> second season, this is [[Starscream (Cyberverse)|Starscream's]] ultimate goal, planning to use the [[AllSpark]] to rip the sparks from every Transformer and bring peace through genocide. He succeeds in doing this to his [[Seeker (Cyberverse)|Seeker]] followers before he is ultimately thwarted. {{storylink|Dark Birth}}
**Shockwave uses a doohickey to zap his spark into the Allspark and corrupt it. A few minutes later, [[Cheetor (Cyberverse)|Cheetor]] uses the same device to do the same and counteract Shockwave's deeds. {{storylink|Battle For Cybertron IV}}

===Energy overload===
{{bigquote|We may need energon for power, but this is too much of a good thing.|[[Optimus Primal (BW)/Beast Wars cartoon continuity|Optimus Primal]], "[[Beast Wars (Part 1)]]"}}
[[File:TFAnimated transformandrollout DEATH.jpg|upright=1.1|thumb|Death — the Optimus version of a power nap.]]
[[File:Underbaseallmine.jpg|thumb|upright=1.1|He's got an Underbase in his underpants.]]
The average [[human]] needs a lot of [[water]] to survive. But too much water results in {{w|Water intoxication|a horrible death}}. Similarly, Transformers need energy to survive, but too much of it can be a very bad thing. Sometimes it's just plain old energy; other times it some special god-like force that does them in.
*In the Marvel comics:
**An [[Underbase]]-empowered Starscream slaughters dozens of Transformers with energy blasts, {{storylink|Dark Star}} which reportedly burn out millions of their [[microchip]]s. {{storylink|Guess Who the Mecannibals Are Having for Dinner?}} Some Transformers are seen to recover from these attacks, either via conventional repairs {{storylink|All the Familiar Faces!}} or through the power of [[Nucleon (substance)|Nucleon]]. {{storylink|The Void! (US)}}
**Starscream himself dies when he absorbs all the energies of the Underbase. {{storylink|Dark Star}}
**[[Landmine (G1)|Landmine]] is apparently killed when struck by a blast of energy from the [[Matrix of Leadership|Matrix]], though the physical effect is more like being hit by an especially powerful laser blast. {{storylink|All Fall Down|All Fall Down (issue)}}
*''Super-God Masterforce'' cartoon: [[Sixknight]] dies from an overcharge of BlackZarak's Devil Power. {{storylink|Malevolent and Inhuman! The True Form of Devil Z}}
*[[2005 IDW continuity]]: [[Runabout (G1)|Runabout]] dies when one of the [[Reaper]]s zaps him full of energy, causing him to explode from within. {{storylink|Devastation issue 6}}
*Movie continuity: [[Megatron (Movie)|Megatron]] is killed when [[Sam Witwicky]] shoves the [[AllSpark]] into his chest. {{storylink|Transformers (film)|Transformers}} [[Evac (Ride)|Evac]] does the same thing with the Allspark shard with Megatron {{storylink|Transformers: The Ride – 3D}}
*''Transformers Animated'' cartoon: [[Optimus Prime (Animated)|Optimus Prime]] gets caught in an explosion of [[AllSpark]] energy that may have been sufficient to kill him, although he also fell off a very tall building immediately afterwards (Starscream was caught in the same explosion and survived, but was knocked offline for an unspecified period.)

===Energy depletion===
On rare occasion, Transformers can simply run out of energy completely and expire.
*Marvel comics: the ancient [[Overlord (rank)|Overlord]] dies from a lack of energy. {{storylink|State Games}}
*''Cybertron'' cartoon [[Vector Prime]] dies after he helps the crew to time travel. {{storylink|Guardian (episode)|Guardian}}
*Movie continuity: [[Jetfire (Movie)|Jetfire]] explains that a lack of energon causes the Transformer equivalent of aging, such as rusting joints, mental confusion, and pieces falling apart, followed by an indefinite period of stasis that can only be reversed by an infusion of Allspark energy. {{storylink|Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (film)|Revenge of the Fallen}}

===Disease===
You may think giant robots couldn't have diseases but it turns out they can!

*Marvel comics: [[Snarl (G1)|Snarl]] contracts [[Corrodia Gravis]], a wasting disease where your body is consumed by rust as your metal breaks down at the molecular level. Only a systems boost from a compatible donor could save Snarl {{storylink|Assassins}} but the disease came back anyway. The best cure is to store a Transformer's brain in remote storage and build a whole new body. {{storylink|Destiny of the Dinobots!}}
*2005 IDW comics: [[Pharma (G1)|Pharma]] engineers the [[Red Rust]] virus: spread by touch and triggered by transforming, it causes all the coolants, dispersants and anti-rusting agents in a Transformer to cross-contaminate and cause a molecular breakdown. The first sign is when the Transformer starts "crying" the fuel out. {{storylink|How Ratchet Got His Hands Back}} Most of [[Delphi]] was killed. {{storylink|Life After the Big Bang}}
*And of course, there's the aforementioned [[Scraplet]]s, [[Cosmic Rust (disease)|cosmic rust]], and the similarly named Rust Plague.

===Aging===
{{quote|Parts wear out and can no longer be replaced. Fatigue sets in. Memory banks overflow and tiny fragmentation errors creep in. In the end, entropy claims us all.|[[Vector Prime]]|[[Ask Vector Prime]]}}

While many characters are portrayed as being old, dying of old age is almost unheard of in Transformers.

*In Transformers UK, it is implied Transformers have long, but not endless life spans. In Kup's story, Kup says that he was put on a spaceship to live out his "remaining years" alone. In another story, Goldbug says that he may never understand humans, even if he lives to be 2 million.
*In the 2005 IDW continuity, Ratchet notes that the process of a Cybertronian aging to death (also referred to as age-related burnout) is a relatively recent discovery. He also notes that many, both spiritual and scientific, still refused to "give up on this-this very seductive idea that we're immortal". [[Tailgate (G1)|Tailgate]] had been diagnosed with [[cybercrosis]], a fatal condition that has been around since before [[Nova Prime]]'s era but which Ratchet believes in this case was brought about by a combination of the radiation Tailgate had been exposed to upon [[Vector Sigma]]'s re-ignition in addition to his old age. Far in the future, Ratchet himself would succumb to age-related burnout.
*''[[The Transformers: Regeneration One|Regeneration One]]'': Although it takes eons, all Transformers eventually die of old age after being disconnected from the life-giving powers of [[Primus]]. {{storylink|The War to End All Wars, Part 5}}

==Suicide==
{{quote|Do you realize how '''hard''' it is for a Cybertronian to die by his own hand? You can jump off a building, blow yourself up, cut off your own head - and you might still survive.|Chromedome, [[Before & After]]}}
Sometimes a Transformer kills himself for some reason, or tries to.
*Marvel comics
**Dirge and Nightbeat, rather than be eaten by the Swarm, self-destruct.
*''Beast Wars''
**Transformers can deliberately override the stasis lock protocols, even if this will result in death. {{storylink|Code of Hero}}
**In the final battles, Depth Charge allows himself to be blown up, killing Rampage. Rampage laughs maniacally as he detonates, suggesting that he was deliberately trying to die. {{storylink|Nemesis Part 1}}. [[Dinobot II]] let himself go down with the ''Nemesis''. {{storylink|Nemesis Part 2}}
*''Energon'': Galvatron, Starscream, and [[Tidal Wave (Armada)|Mirage]] throw themselves into a sun and vaporize themselves. [[Cyclonus (Armada)|Snow Cat]] and Demolishor may have also done this.
*''Revenge of the Fallen'': Jetfire rips out his entire spark housing for Optimus Prime to have enough power to kill The Fallen. {{storylink|Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (film)|Revenge of the Fallen}}
*2005 IDW continuity
**A [[NAIL protester]] kills himself by repeatedly transforming until his [[transformation cog]] burns out. {{storylink|Liars, A to D Part 1: How to Say Goodbye and Mean It|How to Say Goodbye and Mean It}}
**[[Centurion (IDW)|Centurion]] alludes to a desire to find his [[Axalon (BW)|old spaceship]] so that he can die there. How exactly he plans to do this is never expounded on. {{storylink|Strange Visitors}}

==Non-fatal deactivation==
{{quote|"You mean he's still alive?!"<br>"No! But neither is he what you would term 'dead'!"|[[Spider-Man]] and [[Optimus Prime (G1)/Marvel Comics continuity|Optimus Prime]], "[[Prisoner of War!]]"|noquote=true}}

[[File:Zombiesbackfromthedead.jpg|thumb|upright=1.4|Braiiiiiin mooooodulllllles....]]

For almost every single cause of death listed above, there's been one or more Transformers who have survived it, sometimes without so much as a period of unconsciousness.

In particular, "deactivation" is the Transformers equivalent of being in a coma. Numerous Transformers are seen to enter this state and eventually recover, such as the Autobots deactivated by Shockwave, {{storylink|The Last Stand}} who later were repaired. However, the line between death and deactivation is a blurry one. Sometimes the two words are used interchangeably, even in reference to characters who are later revived. Most of Starscream's Underbase victims were described as deactivated, and were sometimes lamented as "dead" while at other times were shown undergoing repairs. {{storylink|Back from the Dead}} {{storylink|Gone but Not Forgotten!}} {{storylink|The Gathering Storm}}

"[[Stasis lock]]" would eventually give a more concrete name to the state of deactivation. The inert Transformers on the crashed Ark were retconned as being in stasis lock. Various ''Beast Wars'' characters would go into stasis lock to maintain their spark when their body had sustained too much damage from weaponsfire or energon absorption. ''Animated'' showed a crew of Autobots voluntarily entering protective stasis lock in anticipation of a crash landing.

Some of the quasi-fatal things which can cause a Transformer to "deactivate" include:

===Impact trauma===
Smashing into something usually knocks out a Transformer, but almost never actually kills them:
*The crew of the original [[Ark (G1)|Ark]] are deactivated when the ship crashes on Earth and lies inert for 4 million years {{storylink|More than Meets the Eye, Part 1}} {{storylink|The Transformers (issue)}}
*Marvel comics: [[Gears (G1)|Gears]] falls to his "death", but is patched together and talking again in short order. {{storylink|Prisoner of War!}}

===Decapitation===
[[File:Sentinelprimeanimatedhumiliated.jpg|thumb|upright=1.1|In the movie continuity, this would've been fatal. In ''Animated'', it's just embarrassing.]]
{{bigquote|Anyone who can lop your head off in one blow is alright by me!|[[Landmine (G1)|Landmine]] jokes about [[Cloudburst]]'s near-death experience, "[[Recipe for Disaster!]]"}}
Like we said before, decapitation is sometimes fatal... and other times it isn't.
*Marvel comic:
**Optimus Prime is able to survive as just a head when Shockwave separates it from his body in an effort to get the Creation Matrix. {{storylink|The New Order}}
**[[Cloudburst]] is abruptly decapitated by sword, but is just fine after some repairs. {{storylink|Recipe for Disaster!}}
*G1 cartoon: Optimus Prime is disassembled into his component parts, but functions just fine as nothing more than a head once [[Ratchet (G1)|Ratchet]] connects a few wires. {{storylink|City of Steel (episode)|City of Steel}}
*''Beast Wars'' cartoon: [[Inferno (BW)|Inferno]] survives having his head blasted or otherwise knocked off multiple times, {{storylink|Spider's Game}} {{storylink|Other Voices, Part 2}} {{storylink|Coming of the Fuzors (Part 1)}} {{storylink|Code of Hero}} and even puts it back on himself one time. He even accidentally swaps heads with Megatron once, much to the latter's annoyance. {{storylink|Coming of the Fuzors (Part 2)}} And let's not even get started on how many times [[Waspinator (BW)|Waspinator]] has lost his head.
[[File:TLK-Mohawk demise.jpg|thumb|upright=1.1|Looks like ''Animated's'' non-fatal decapitation practice is catching up to the rest of the [[Multiverse]].]]
*[[2005 IDW continuity]]:
**[[Runamuck (G1)|Runamuck]] is just fine when one of the Reapers whacks his head off. (He doesn't fare so well when another Reaper crushes his head with a boulder, however.) {{storylink|Devastation issue 6}}
**[[Red Alert (G1)|Red Alert]]'s head is removed in an apparent suicide attempt; he survived because he was put back together in time, before his Spark had faded out. {{storylink|Shadowplay, Part 1: Post Hoc}} {{storylink|Shadowplay, Part 2: Patternism}}
*''Animated'' cartoon: Decapitated victims of the ''Animated'' [[Headmaster (Animated)|Headmaster]] rarely show any ill effects other than not having a body anymore. {{storylink|Headmaster (episode)|Headmaster}} {{storylink|The Return of the Headmaster}} {{storylink|A Bridge Too Close, Part II}}
*Movie Continuity:
** Frenzy survives his first decapitation by [[Mikaela Banes]]. {{storylink|Transformers (film)|Transformers}}
**[[Megatron (Movie)|Megatron]]'s consciousness survives his decapitation in the Chicago battle, even after having an axe lodged right into his processor. {{storylink|Transformers: Age of Extinction (film)|Age of Extinction}}
**[[Mohawk]] had himself blown up by [[Bumblebee (Movie)|Bumblebee]], yet his head remained functional, and he himself continued to speak. {{storylink|Transformers: The Last Knight (film)|The Last Knight}}

===Dismemberment===
{{quote|MY ARM!!!|Starscream, ''Revenge of the Fallen''}}
Transformers get ripped to pieces all the time, and recover from it:
*Marvel comic: Scorponok tears [[Tantrum (G1)|Tantrum]] to pieces. [[Blitzwing (G1)|Blitzwing]] slices [[Horri-Bull]] in half at the waist. Both are seen alive later on. {{storylink|Cold War!}}
*''Last Stand of the Wreckers'': [[Guzzle (G1)|Guzzle]] is torn in half by [[Overlord (G1)|Overlord]] and is easily repaired. The same also happens to [[Fortress Maximus (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Fortress Maximus]].
*''Revenge of the Fallen'': During a fierce battle, [[Optimus Prime (Movie)|Optimus Prime]] not only cuts off [[Grindor (ROTF)|Grindor]]'s arm with an Energon blade, but he rips off [[Starscream (Movie)|Starscream]]'s arm with his bare hands, and proceeded to ''beat him with it''.

===Spark removal===
{{bigquote|His spark can't exist outside a living body!|[[Rhinox (BW)|Rhinox]], "[[Optimal Situation]]"}}

A Transformer's spark—their "soul", their living essence—can be removed from their body, or the body can be destroyed around them
*The destruction of Starscream's body, and his subsequent survival as a ghost, was eventually retconned to be his Spark enduring without a physical form. {{storylink|The Transformers: The Movie}} {{storylink|Starscream's Ghost}} {{storylink|Possession}}
*''Beast Wars'' cartoon: Tigatron and Airazor's sparks spend quite some time wandering around behind Tigerhawk, before combining and entering his body. {{storylink|Other Victories}}
*In the ''Beast Machines'' cartoon:
**Megatron de-sparks most of Cybertron's population and stores their sparks in a big barrel. Most were restored to bodies eventually. {{storylink|Endgame Pt. III: Seeds of the Future}}
**Blackarachnia's spark wanders around bodiless for a time. {{storylink|Revelations Part III: Apocalypse}}
**Megatron himself, his spark in a depolarized state, wanders the surface of Cybertron without a body for a time. {{storylink|Spark of Darkness}}

The treatment of bodiless sparks in ''Beast Machines'' is seen by some fans as contradicting the canon established by ''Beast Wars'', particularly the quote above.

*In the 2005 IDW continuity, the spark, like the other two parts of Rossum's Trinity, can be safely removed and stored with the proper medical equipment.

===Limbo===
Sometimes Transformers get shunted out of creation as we know it, and into various alternate, sub- and non-dimensions.
*Marvel comics:
**The [[trans-time dimensional portal]] crosses [[unspace]], "a bit of dimensional nothingness" where Ratchet and Megatron vanished and were believed dead. {{storylink|The Gathering Storm}}
**Transformers mass-displaced by time travel wind up in a formless dimension known as [[Limbo]].
*2005 IDW comics: Megatron severely damages Optimus Prime in battle and plans on finishing him off by crushing his [[Laser core|spark core]]. Optimus Prime feigns death by downloading his "consciousness" into his [[Combat Deck (G1)|trailer section]], causing his [[Brain Center|robot mode]] to appear dead. In the time it took for Prime's consciousness to transfer to his trailer, he briefly enters [[infraspace|limbo]], the transitional infraspace between life and death. {{storylink|The Transformers: Escalation|Escalation}}

==Resuscitation==
Robots are machines. They can be switched off, taken apart, blown to bits, and put back together. Ergo, in many continuities and cases, "death" is not nearly as permanent a condition as it is for us fragile fleshy types.

===Reconstruction===
[[File:PeoplePower-reprogrammed.jpg|thumb|upright=1.4]]

{{bigquote|I've done it! Optimus Prime lives!|[[Klementia|A random Quintesson]], "[[The Return of Optimus Prime, Part 1]]"}}

*Generation 1 cartoon:
**Optimus Prime is simply ''repaired'' back to life by a Quintesson. Some fixing of this and that, a burst of power, and boom, suddenly he's alive again. {{storylink|The Return of Optimus Prime, Part 1}}
**Ultra Magnus's death is undone after his limbs were reconnected to each other. {{storylink|The Transformers: The Movie}}
*Marvel comics: Optimus Prime's mind gets encoded on a disk. After a new [[Powermaster]] body was constructed for him, the disk's contents are loaded into it, and Optimus Prime lives again. (One wonders why they couldn't make as many Optimus Primes as they pleased.) {{storylink|People Power!}}
*Movie continuity: [[Megatron (Movie)|Megatron]]'s consciousness manipulates [[Kinetic Solutions Incorporated|KSI]] into building him a new body, which he subsequently infects. {{storylink|Transformers: Age of Extinction (film)|Age of Extinction}}

===Spark transfer===
Transferring a Transformer's spark into a new body constitutes a form of resurrection, particularly if the Transformer's previous body was destroyed.
*''Beast Wars'' cartoon: Optimus Primal is restored to life when Rhinox manages to recall his spark from the Matrix, a special circumstance only enabled by a temporary window into transwarp space. {{storylink|Coming of the Fuzors (Part 2)}}
*''Beast Machines'' cartoon: various Vehicon generals are brought to life by placing other Transformer's sparks into them.
*''Armada'' cartoon: Smokescreen is shot through the chest at point blank range by the Requiem Blaster {{storylink|Sacrifice}} but his spark survived and is put into a new body. {{storylink|Regeneration (Armada)|Regeneration}}
*''Energon'' cartoon: Inferno and Demolishor both have their bodies ''atomized''; however, their sparks both survive, and are placed into new bodies. (The upshot of all of this is that it's nigh-impossible to kill a Unicron Trilogy Transformer, unless they do it themselves.) {{storylink|Go for Unicron!}} {{storylink|Farewell Inferno}}
*''Animated'' cartoon: The spark of a dying [[Yoketron (Animated)|Yoketron]] is placed into a new protoform body by [[Prowl (Animated)|Prowl]]; however, Yoketron consciously chooses to let his life end, and expires anyway. {{storylink|Five Servos of Doom}}
*2005 IDW comics: [[Lug (IDW)|Lug]] gets brought back to life after spending five hundred years as a spark fragment in an Energon flower by being transplanted into a snowflake of [[Living metal#2005 IDW continuity|''sentio metallico'']], which results in her being reborn as a [[protoform]]. {{storylink|Dissolution Part 6: This Machine Kills Fascists|This Machine Kills Fascists}}

*''Energon'' cartoon: Megatron is revived by the all-encompassing power of energon, as was Unicron. {{storylink|Megatron Resurrected}}

===Primus and Primus-related powers===
{{bigquote|Where the Last Autobot is concerned, even death, it would appear, is an abstract concept!|Optimus Prime explains his latest revival, "[[End of the Road! (US)|End of the Road!]]"}}

Anything tied to the primordial life-force of the Transformers' god Primus tends to be a cure-all for death. This includes Primus himself, his various power-wielding avatars and servants, and the assorted Matrixes and Allsparks, all of which can deliver an infusion of the essence of life itself. In some continuities, this is portrayed as a Transformer's spark being brought back out of the Allspark dimension.

[[File:RageInHeaven-HeroPrime.jpg|thumb|upright=0.85|A real man never dies, even when he's killed!]]
*In the Marvel comics:
**The [[Last Autobot]] is granted the power of recreation by Primus, which he uses to raise numerous fallen Autobots from the battlefield. {{storylink|End of the Road! (US)}}
**Optimus Prime is eager to find the lost Creation Matrix, stating that it would be able to restore many deactivated warriors to life. {{storylink|Bird of Prey!}}
**Optimus Prime is restored to life by the [[Swarm (G2)|Swarm]] after it had ingested the energies and knowledge of the Matrix. {{storylink|A Rage in Heaven!}}
*In the movie continuity:
**The AllSpark is shown repeatedly to be capable of restoring just about anything. Frenzy gets a whole new body from its power, Bumblebee temporarily gets his voice back, {{storylink|Transformers (film)|Transformers}} and Megatron is restored to life by merely a fragment of it. {{storylink|Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (film)|Revenge of the Fallen}}
**Optimus Prime is restored to life by the Matrix of Leadership, an Allspark-related talisman. {{storylink|Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (film)|Revenge of the Fallen}}
**Sentinel Prime is revived after crash landing on the moon by the Matrix of Leadership, courtesy of Optimus Prime. {{storylink|Transformers: Dark of the Moon (film)|Dark of the Moon}}
*''Beast Machines'' cartoon: [[Optimus Primal (BW)/Beast Wars cartoon continuity|Optimus Primal]]'s body is destroyed, but the AllSpark granted him the choice of uniting with it or being reborn. He chose the latter, and ''poof'', just walked right out of the Oracle bubble in a brand new version of his previous body. {{storylink|Fallout (episode)|Fallout}}
*''Armada'' cartoon: [[Optimus Prime (Armada)/Cartoon continuity|Optimus Prime]] is brought back to life by the power of the [[Mini-Con]]s after his body was disintegrated. {{storylink|Miracle}}
*"[[Transformers: Shattered Glass (franchise)|Shattered Glass]]": [[Skyfall (Cybertron)|Skyfall]] is resurrected when he and his gestaltmates are combined and reborn by Primus into [[Nexus Prime]]. {{storylink|Reunification: Part 5}} Nexus Prime then brings [[Megatron (SG)|Megatron]] back from the other side of the Allspark and infuses him with some of Primus's power to become Galvatron. {{storylink|Reunification: Part 6}}

===Zombies===
*Dude, [[zombie]]s!

==Immortality==
===Immortal sparks===
Certain sparks have mutant qualities that allow them to, potentially, exist forever.
*Starscream survives his death at the hands of Galvatron; this was later explained as him having a "mutant indestructible spark". {{storylink|Starscream's Ghost}} {{storylink|Possession}} {{storylink|Bad Spark}}
*[[Rampage (BW)|Rampage]] was created as an attempt to duplicate Starscream's immortal spark. {{storylink|Bad Spark}} He is eventually killed by [[Depth Charge (BW)|Depth Charge]], so the attempt may be seen as unsuccessful. {{storylink|Nemesis Part 1}}

===Other===
*[[Multiversal singularity|Multiversal singularities]] such as [[Unicron]] and [[The Fallen]] were immortal, existing in multiple dimensions simultaneously as extensions of the same being across different dimensions (reverse-time dimensions, for example, are key to revival of the singularities). Multiversal singularities ceased to exist with the coming of the [[Shroud]], nullifying this concept.
*''Animated'' [[Starscream (Animated)|Starscream]] cannot be killed so long as he retains his Allspark fragment embedded in his forehead. Whether or not this ability extends to other AllSpark creations is unknown.
*Denizens of the [[Dead Universe]] can essentially regenerate themselves out of nothing, no matter how much damage was inflicted on them. This ability appears to no longer apply, post-[[Expansion]], except when in direct proximity to the Dead Universe.
*Thunderwing's Pretender shell makes him nearly invincible. At the very least, he is able to withstand incredible amounts of salvo and not even flinch.
*[[Waspinator (BW)|Waspinator]] can never completely die no matter what for some reason. It's probably because if he died, the universe wouldn't be able to inflict pain on him anymore.

==Out-of-fiction causes of character death==
===Drama / character culmination===
[[File:LastStandoftheWreckers5- Ironfistaneurism.jpg|thumb|upright=1.1|I told you I was ill.]]
At its best, character death can be a moving plot development, the fruition of an ongoing character arc.
*[[Scorponok (G1)/Marvel Comics continuity|Scorponok]] spends much of [[Simon Furman]]'s Marvel US run conflicted and doubting himself, and under the weight of his pre-Headmaster self's reputation. He finally gets past this and takes the fight to Unicron, dying in the process, his last words asking Optimus if he'd done good. {{storylink|On the Edge of Extinction!}}
*Suspecting that they would have to remove a character from the show, the writers of ''Beast Wars'' began planning for Dinobot's death several episodes ahead of time. Thus, when it came, it was the outcome of the character's own choices, flaws, and history, and played a crucial role in the show's plot. {{storylink|Code of Hero}}
*Sunstreaker's death in ''[[The Transformers: All Hail Megatron|All Hail Megatron]]'' was intended to follow a similar style of arc... only it's missing the whole choices, flaws and history thing. Oh well!
*Optimus Primal's death(s) in ''Beast Machines'' are likewise the outcome of his own choices and character. {{storylink|End of the Line}} {{storylink| Endgame Pt. III: Seeds of the Future}} His death in ''Beast Wars'', by contrast, is more a moment of dramatic pathos — knowingly walking into danger, his enemy got the better of him. {{storylink|Other Voices, Part 2}}
*[[Ironfist (G1)|Ironfist]]'s death in ''[[The Transformers: Last Stand of the Wreckers|Last Stand of the Wreckers]]'' is his main plot arc, quietly built up in the background since the first issue.

===Consequences of war===
[[File:Bulkhead Eradicon Darkness Rising 3.jpg|thumb|upright=1.1|His special large intestine! There's only one like it!]]
It's hard to take a war story seriously when nobody actually dies. The reality of war can be more readily portrayed when characters die. [[Generic]]s are particularly handy for this, allowing death to be shown while not removing primary characters (retail toys!) from the story. The results can range from high drama and pathos to numbingly pointless body counts.
*Impactor's death is used to drive home the threat of the Decepticons as well as the risks taken by the Autobots and their commanders. {{storylink|Target: 2006}}
*The ''Generation 2'' book features several deaths which drive home the realities of war. Most notably, Red Alert's destruction serves to make Grimlock acutely aware of just how badly he'd screwed up. {{storylink|Devices and Desires! (Marvel)|Devices and Desires!}}
*Pretty much every death in ''[[The Transformers: Last Stand of the Wreckers|Last Stand of the Wreckers]]'' comes under this.
*[[Cliffjumper (WFC)|Cliffjumper]], [[Tailgate (Prime)|Tailgate]], [[Skyquake (Prime)|Skyquake]] and [[Makeshift (Prime)|Makeshift]] are all killed in their first ''Prime'' episodes, due to just plain bad luck in the first three cases and because of a deliberate Autobot killing in Makeshift's. The [[Vehicon (Prime)|Vehicons]] are presented as sentient ''and'' as being killed by Autobots in large numbers. [[Jeff Kline]] famously said at the advent of ''Prime'' that all deaths would be final. While the rule applied to the majority of the series, it was happily ignored when it came time for the deaths of [[Bumblebee (WFC)|Bumblebee]], [[Megatron (WFC)|Megatron]], and [[Optimus Prime (WFC)|Optimus Prime]], who were all revived almost immediately after death (admittedly it took until the [[Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2015 cartoon)|follow-up series]] to revive Optimus a second time, but let's face it, we're used to that by this point).
*In [[Megatron X (Cyberverse)|Megatron X]]'s reality, the Autobots lost the war and all of them probably died.{{storylink|The Other One}}

===Increased threat===
[[File:LastStandoftheWreckers1-whycouldntyou.jpg|upright=2.0|thumb]]
An enemy that kills is an enemy to be taken seriously. Thus a writer will frequently throw in some preliminary deaths to point out how seriously the bad guy should be treated.
*The generic who dies at the beginning of "[[City of Fear!]]" serves to show the zombies as a true life-threatening menace.
*Likewise for Runabout's death at the hands of the demons ; {{storylink|On the Edge of Extinction!}} knowing they can devour a Transformer makes the reader more concerned about the Dinobots' subsequent fate. {{storylink|Still Life!}}
*In "[[The Transformers: Last Stand of the Wreckers|Last Stand of the Wreckers]]", [[Overlord (G1)|Overlord]] makes corpses in practically every scene he's in!
*Cliffjumper in ''Prime'' is set up as a main character and then killed in five minutes, immediately putting the ''Prime'' Decepticons forward as a major threat.
*[[Ratchet (Movie)|Ratchet]] is brutally hunted down and killed early into ''Age of Extinction'' by [[Cemetery Wind]] and [[Lockdown (ROTF)|Lockdown]], to show what has befallen the majority of the Cybertronians on Earth (and the old cast from the first three films) and what will happen if the survivors are caught.
*''Transformers: Unicron'' begins with Unicron already having noshed on [[Velocitron]], which had previously appeared a few times in that continuity's works while never exactly being a major focus, and soon the [[Space Knight]]s find the corpse of Cliffjumper, whose last major appearance had been a good four years prior, but then Wheeljack, who has been a main character in the last few years, dies as well, proving the situation is now beyond serious. Also, several named Space Knights from Rom's own series die, but they're nasty, bigoted jerks so nobody feels bad when they snuff it.

===Cast thinning===
Generation 1 stories were particularly notorious for acquiring gigantic casts as they rolled on, because of the franchise's longevity. A simple way to make things more manageable was simply to kill off large numbers of characters in battle.

*Examples are rife in the Marvel comics:
**The "[[Time Wars]]" storyline gets rid of the [[Wrecker]]s and quite a few Decepticons as well.
**The [[Underbase Saga]] even more explicitly clears out dozens of characters, leaving perhaps 2 dozen characters from each faction in the story.
**The battle with Unicron in "[[On the Edge of Extinction!]]" likewise got rid of a lot of older characters, leaving the story free to concentrate on more of a core cast (and associated newer toy characters.)
*''The Transformers: The Movie'' does this on a smaller basis. While only a handful of characters were actually killed off, many more cast members simply disappeared without explanation in the following season of the cartoon.
*[[Betrayal|Wreckers #2]] deals with its oversized cast by killing off scads of characters right up front.

More recent stories - particularly those without the overriding imperative [[to sell toys]], such as the G1 IDW comics - have accepted that not every character must be constantly accounted for at all times or roll-called every issue, allowing larger casts to simply exist in the background until needed. Another alternative, particularly visible in the ''Beast Wars'' cartoon, is to give new bodies (based on corresponding new toys, of course) to existing characters, allowing them to continue promoting new toys across multiple seasons of the show.

===Character motivation===
[[File:Bludgeonasavageplace.jpg|upright=1.5|thumb|"How are we going to SHEEEAGH together if he's dead?!"]]

A quick and easy way to create enmity between characters is for the antagonist to kill someone close to the protagonist.

*In Marvel's comics, [[Carnivac (G1)|Carnivac]]'s revenge plot against the new [[Mayhem Attack Squad]] is motivated by [[Bludgeon (G1)|Bludgeon]]'s murder of [[Catilla (G1)|Catilla]]. {{storylink|A Savage Place!}}
*In ''Energon'', [[Wing Saber (Energon)|Wing Saber ''nee'' Dagger]] swears revenge on [[Shockblast]] after the murder of his partner, [[Padlock (Energon)|Padlock]]. {{storylink|Shockblast: Rampage}} He then forgets to care about Shockblast later but, y'know, ''Energon'' story.
*In ''Prime'', [[Airachnid (Prime)|Airachnid]] and [[Arcee (WFC)|Arcee's]] conflict is down to Airachnid's murder of [[Tailgate (Prime)|Tailgate]]. {{storylink|Predatory}} She keeps throwing this in Arcee's face.

===Clear space for new toys===
{{main|To sell toys}}
[[File:Newyorkunderbase.jpg|thumb|upright=1.1|(They also cease to appear on store shelves.)]]
Some fiction has an inherently limited capacity for characters. ''Beast Wars'' and ''Beast Machines'' are by far the most prominent examples; their CGI animation made character animation expensive and necessitated removing an old character before a new one could be brought in. But any medium can be susceptible to this toy-driven phenomena.
*The numerous casualties of ''[[The Transformers: The Movie]]'' are fairly explicitly removed from the story to make way for a wave of new toy/characters.
*Terrorsaur and Scorponok had to be removed — quickly — to make room for the two upcoming Fuzor characters, hence their sudden, blink-and-you-miss-it death in "[[Aftermath]]".
*Airazor and Tigatron were removed for similar reasons. When their plot was finally resolved, it was, surprise, via [[Tigerhawk|a new toy]]!

==Fleshling death==
{{quote|"The humans' spark is fragile."<br>"WHAT?! Impossible! Their spark's not eternal?"<br>"One life. That's ''all'' they've got."<br>"Bahh. Then they really ''are'' poorly designed."|[[Demolishor (Armada)|Demolishor]] and [[Megatron (Armada)/Cartoon continuity|Megatron]]|"[[Energon Grid (episode)|Energon Grid]]"|noquote=true}}

In general, ''Transformers'' fiction is pretty squeamish about showing the deaths of Earth's organic creatures. But it's a war, and sometimes it does happen. The out-of-universe reasons generally fall into three categories: Consequences of War, Emotional Pathos, and BLOOD IZ KEWL.

The various cartoons tend to show organic death the least, as they are most clearly aimed at, and easily accessible by, children. Comics tend to be less reluctant to show the impact of the Transformers' war on innocent lives, though the death rate varies by series. Latter-day Generation 1 books especially revel in high body counts, because squishing stupid humans is killer and awesome and radical and hardcore. Even the occasional [[Satellite of Doom|children's storybook]] has been known to off mass quantities of the dumb fleshies.

===Animal death===
[[File:MurderedPuppy02.jpg|upright=0.85|thumb|One dead dog]]
[[File:Sparkwar3 Dead noble.jpg|upright=0.85|thumb|Two dead dogs]]
Cute little animals are almost always killed off for reasons of Emotional Pathos:
*A little girl's pet puppy named [[Pis]] barks at [[Wilder (G1)|Wilder]] and is kicked so hard he died. {{storylink|Rage!! Little Devils with No Need for Rules}}
*The "[[Battle Dog]]" is shot down by the Decepticons after running away from Megatron's experiments. {{storylink|Fight! Super Robot Lifeform Transformers issue 8|Fight! Super Robot Lifeform Transformers #8}}
*[[Jazz (G1)|Jazz]] reminds [[Bumblebee (G1)|Bumblebee]] that [[The Fallen]] once shot down a ship full of [[Antilian bumble-puppy|Antilian bumble-puppies]]. (Decepticons have a thing for killing puppies.)
*The dog-like [[Noble (BM)|Noble]] is shot at by [[Megatron (BW)/Beast Wars cartoon continuity|Megatron]] because of his hatred for organics {{storylink|Sparkwar Pt. III: The Siege}} and was later mourned by his "owner", [[Nightscream (BM)|Nightscream]]. {{storylink|Spark of Darkness}}
*A stray shot from [[Tigatron]] accidentally causes an avalanche which kills his friend [[Snowstalker]]. {{storylink|Law of the Jungle}}
*[[Terrorsaur (BW)|Terrorsaur]] eats an eagle. {{storylink|Power Surge (episode)|Power Surge}} [[Tarantulas (BW)|Tarantulas]] eats a cute little rat, {{storylink|Victory (episode)|Victory}} and nearly eats an antelope as well. {{storylink|Code of Hero}}
*In order to save [[Blackarachnia (BW)|Blackarachnia]], [[Silverbolt (Fuzor)|Silverbolt]] knocks a [[saber-toothed cat|saber-toothed tiger]] off a cliff, presumably killing it. {{Storylink|Bad Spark}}
*[[Blackarachnia (Animated)|Elita-1]] uses [[Sentinel Prime (Animated)|Sentinel]]'s shield to knock a spikey rock onto a giant spider, effectively killing it. She later used [[Optimus Prime (Animated)|Optimus]]' axe to kill some new bornbaby spiders. {{Storylink|Along Came a Spider}}
*Human villain [[Trophy White]] has a grisly display of stuffed and mounted animal heads. {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 2.10|Bring Me the Head of Optimus Prime}}
*[[Laserbeak (DOTM)|Laserbeak]] takes potshots at a vulture for fun in Africa. {{storylink|Transformers: Dark of the Moon (film)|Dark of the Moon}}
*[[Megatron (Movie)|Megatron]] killed a friggin' elephant in Africa. (In [[Transformers: Dark of the Moon (novel)|the adaptation]], at least.)
{{-}}

===Human death===
[[File:Razorclawshootsahuman.jpg|thumb|upright=0.85|This didn't happen much.]]
*Marvel US: The [[The Transformers (Marvel comic)|original Marvel book]] ignored or glossed over human casualties, which were rarely if ever shown; the panel at right, from [[Toy Soldiers!|US #37]], shows a ''very'' unusual instance of a human dying right in front of us. One of the few human(oid)s to die on-panel was [[Galen]], killed off to make way for [[Spike Witwicky (G1)|Spike]]. ''[[Transformers: Generation 2 (Marvel)|Generation 2]]'' was much more explicit about human death, as Bludgeon and later [[Jhiaxus (G2)|Jhiaxus]] attacked Earth for the purpose of inflicting casualties.
*Marvel UK: The UK-original stories were much less reluctant to show human death; within the first year or so, humans had died in Autobot-induced car wrecks and at the hands of mind-controlled Autobots.
*In ''[[The Transformers: Regeneration One|Regeneration One]]'', after his revival on Earth, Megatron manages to gain control of Earth's nuclear arsenal and uses it to push humanity to the brink of extinction. {{storylink|Loose Ends, Part 3}} During that conflict, Megatron has some fun terrorizing the population with his army of zombie Decepticons. [[Ratbat (G1)|Ratbat]] tracks down and killed [[Buster Witwicky (G1)|Buster]] and [[Jesse (G1)|Jessie]] Witwicky in a car wash; had he had his full faculties, he might have [[Buster Witwicky and the Car Wash of Doom|appreciated the irony]]. {{storylink|Less Than Zero}}
*In almost every US-aired cartoon series, humans essentially ''never'' die. Even ''[[Transformers Animated (cartoon)|Transformers Animated]]'', which features the city of [[Detroit]] getting smashed by robot battles virtually every week, never once mentions humans getting killed. And then ''[[Transformers: Prime (cartoon)|Transformers: Prime]]'' showed up.
**A human is shown slumped against a wall in "[[Darkness Rising, Part 5]]", a victim of Soundwave, though it isn't clear whether he was dead or merely unconscious.[[File:Convoy-kablooie.jpg|thumb|upright=0.85|They'll, uh, be okay, maybe.]]
**When [[MECH|human terrorists]] are featured, they will often die. Piloted or driven vehicles explode and enemies are implied to be crushed. "[[Convoy (episode)|Convoy]]" is the first of numerous examples.
**When Nemesis Prime attacks a military base in his [[Nemesis Prime (episode)|self-titled episode]], it's likely his rampage cost the lives of numerous soldiers.
**When the military attacked [[Darkmount (Earth)|Darkmount]], its fusion cannons devastate the entire force, presumably killing them all.
**[[Silas|Cylas]] is the first human to die on-screen in Western Transformers animation, but not before thanking [[Airachnid (Prime)|Airachnid]] for finally freeing him of his gruesome existence.
*Contemporary toyline-based comics (''[[Transformers: Armada (Dreamwave)|Armada]]'', ''[[Transformers: Energon (comic)|Energon]]'') seem to follow a similar policy, avoiding showing, only mentioning, human death.
*Japanese cartoons, by contrast, don't seem to mind showing human deaths (or [[Pis|dog deaths]], for that matter).
*The [[Dreamwave Generation One continuity|Dreamwave G1 comics]] really thought it was totally awesome and cool and radical to kill off those stupid humans. Thus, they start off with Megatron smushing some stupid humans. More smushing and killing and blowing up follows. DIE, dumb stubbies, DIE!
*[[2005 IDW continuity]] managed to avoid this for a long time, showing human death only when it was particularly integral to the plot... then ''[[The Transformers: All Hail Megatron|All Hail Megatron]]'' came down the pike. DIE, stupid fleshies, DIE!
*The live-action [[movie continuity]] implies a great deal of human death. ''Revenge'' mentions a body count of over 9,000 (don't even ''think'' about it), and massive damage is done during the battle of [[Mission City]], though little of it is shown on screen. And of course, the first film begins with Blackout wiping out an entire military base. A handful of humans are killed directly on-screen, most notably [[Patrick Donnelly|Donnelly]]. Then of course we get to ''Dark of the Moon'', which has Decepticons laying siege to [[Chicago]], killing most of its citizens, including several being shot and exploding and disintegrating into just skulls ''directly in front of the camera''. That's not even mentioning [[Laserbeak (DOTM)|Laserbeak]], whose job it is to assassinate civilians, even if it means befriending their children to do it. Twisted.
**[[Dylan Gould]] is killed when he was shoved into [[Sentinel Prime (ROTF)|Sentinel Prime's]] space bridge generator, but given he was a villain it's not so much of a concern. {{storylink|Transformers: Dark of the Moon (film)|Dark of the Moon}}
**[[Sam Witwicky]] was killed by Megatron but brought back to life by the Primes.
**[[Lucas Flannery]], in a bit of karmic retribution (for having tipped off [[Cemetery Wind]] to Optimus' location against Cade's wishes), gets fried by one of [[Lockdown (ROTF)|Lockdown]]'s grenades and his mangled corpse is converted into ''[[Living metal#Live-action film series|Transformium]]''. [[James Savoy]] says his sister was a casualty of the Battle of Chicago, which he uses as an excuse to sadistically hunt and kill Autobots and their sympathizers. He ends up getting knocked out of a very high window by [[Cade Yeager]] for attempting to kill his family. Later, his boss, [[Harold Attinger]], is brutally gunned down by Optimus Prime when he tries to kill Cade for sympathizing with the Autobots. Additionally, [[Joshua Joyce]] tries to scramble paramedics to the scene of Galvatron's rampage (much to Attinger's disgust), believing people were killed. And then there's the [[Dinobot (AOE)|Dinobots]] stomping through the densely crowded streets of Hong Kong. They certainly killed more people than Decepticons!
**[[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]]'s arrival to Earth was predicted to cause tens of millions of human casualties. When its continents began reconnecting, the human news reported they were literally scraping away major cities such as [[Hong Kong]] and projected to kill millions.
**''[[Bumblebee (film)|Bumblebee]]'' introduces a new method of human death: liquification. [[Dropkick (Movie)|Dropkick]] uses a special gun that performs this feat on [[Roy (BB)|some random guy]] and later [[Dr. Powell]]. {{storylink|Bumblebee (film)|Bumblebee}}
*The alternate timeline arc in Titan's Movie comic featured big wars on Earth and lots of destruction, clearly ''insinuating'' human death while not being explicit. The exceptions were in [[Transformers Comic issue 10|issue #10]], where [[NATO]] is said to be suffering losses of 11,506 and the [[France|Palais Bourbon]] is blown up when people are still clearly inside.

:''Crosscut is an [[Autobot]] from the [[Generation 1 continuity family|Generation 1]] [[continuity family]].''

[[File:Crosscut-Auto-Card.jpg|upright=1.66|thumb|Tiberius Diaclonus]]
Ambassador to many worlds, '''Crosscut''' (クロスカット ''Kurosukatto'', also '''Cross-Cut''') is key to the Autobots' peaceful negotiations across known space. He is fluent in over 230 Earth languages and 6300 alien languages. Though he carries a lot of weaponry, it is all defensive in nature, meant to incapacitate rather than kill. In dire emergencies, he can transfer all his data and memories to his scooter-drone [[Clutch (G1)|Clutch]] so his knowledge won't be lost even if he falls to the [[Decepticon]]s.<ref>''Collector's Edition'' Crosscut bio</ref>

==Fiction==
===Japanese Generation 1 cartoon continuity===
====''Masterpiece'' toy bios====
[[Road Rage (G1)|Road Rage]] came to Crosscut's rescue when the ambassador was in a dangerous situation on a colony planet; he was impressed enough to invite her to be his bodyguard. {{Storylink|Road Rage (G1)#Masterpiece|''Masterpiece'' Road Rage bio}}

====''Legends'' comic====
In the late 1980s, Crosscut was part of a team that attempted to protect the [[Transform Super Cog]] from being stolen by the [[Decepticon]]s, but the [[Battlecharger]]s were able to rev past Crosscut and a few others into the ''[[Ark (G1)|Ark]]''. {{Storylink|Slugslinger's Ambition}}

====''Collector's Edition'' toy bio====
While on [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]], Crosscut was secretly commanded by [[Optimus Prime (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Optimus Prime]] to come to [[Earth]] to undertake negotiations with [[human]]ity towards a formal alliance and building [[Autobot City (G1)|Autobot City]]. {{storylink|#Collector's Edition|''Collector's Edition'' Crosscut bio}}

====Controverse====
As an Autobot diplomat, Crosscut monitored the Galactic Justice Council's plans for the trial of [[Primacron]] in early [[2011]]. He was appalled at their choice of a [[Quintesson]] to act as judge. {{storylink|Controverse}}

===3H comics===
[[File:Crosscutbetrayal.jpg|left|upright=1.0|thumb|Lives to die.]]
Crosscut was the navigator of ''[[Sojourner's Passage]]'', one of several starships sent out by [[Hot Rod (G1)|Rodimus Prime]] in [[2005]] to explore the universe and establish recon points. He was especially interested in establishing first contact with undiscovered alien civilizations.

Weeks later, their ship was hit by an energy pulse fired from the planet [[Akalo|Archa Nine]], and Crosscut was killed when the ship subsequently crashed. {{storylink|Betrayal}}

Crosscut was a member of the [[Elite Guard]]'s [[Recon Team]], working with [[Rest-Q (G1)|Rest-Q]], [[Delta Seeker]], and their field leader [[Roadfire]]. A former ambassador for Cybertron to other planets, he used his translating skills to compensate for Rest-Q's hopelessly-incomprehensible dialogues.<ref>From a set of Elite Guard character descriptions on the Club forums.</ref> He was also a playwright of some note. [[Headcannon]] was a fan of his work. {{storylink|Source:Ask Vector Prime/Facebook#September 16, 2015|Ask Vector Prime, 16/09/2015}}

After the [[Stealth Team (G1)|Stealth Team]] was exposed to [[Nucleon (substance)|nucleon]], Crosscut interpreted for Rest-Q as he examined the radiation's effect on their super-structures. His upbeat delivery did little to cover the fact that Rest-Q had no idea when they would regain the ability to transform. {{storylink|A Team Effort}}

Crosscut was among the Elite Guardsmen seen defending their base from the traitorous [[Combaticon (G1)|Combaticon]]s. {{storylink|The Coming Storm: Part 5}} His corpse was hurled through a section of the Elite Guard headquarters by [[Bruticus (G1)|Bruticus]] just as the [[Strike Team]] arrived on the scene. {{storylink|The Coming Storm: Part 6}}

[[File:Swerve crosscut the dead are not enough.jpg|thumb|left|upright=0.85|Here's some diplomacy right in your face!!]]
Crosscut is a former [[Senate|Senator]] turned playwright. He was [[reproduction|forged]], possessed a Vitrious-Negative [[spark]] and developed a phobia of [[Nanocon]]s during the war. He became famous for being one of the few Senators to take a stand during the early days of the Decepticon uprising, and celebrated for having liberated [[Petrex]] "with wise words and a shovel". However, Crosscut preferred people to know him for his art over his wartime reputation and eventually produced a play entitled ''[[My Shovel, Your Face]]''. {{storylink|The Dead Are Not Enough: Dark Cybertron Chapter 7|The Dead Are Not Enough}} {{storylink|Twenty Plus One}}

After the war's official end, he joined the ''[[Lost Light]]'' and was seen drinking in [[Swerve's]] with [[Smokescreen (G1)|Smokescreen]] shortly after [[First Aid (G1)|First Aid]] and [[Ambulon]] joined the crew. {{storylink|No Guns, No Swords, No Briefcases}}

[[File:Blurr crosscut the becoming.jpg|thumb|"I think his name was... ''Choom''?"]]
While fighting the [[Ammonite]]s on [[Hydrophena]], he invited [[Swerve (G1)|Swerve]] (who he confused with [[Rung (G1)|Rung]]) to see one of his plays (if they both survived). {{storylink|The Dead Are Not Enough: Dark Cybertron Chapter 7|The Dead Are Not Enough}} Unfortunately, he had already forgotten Swerve's name a few hours later when asked by [[Blurr (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Blurr]]. Inside Swerve's bar. Named ''Swerve's''. {{storylink|The Becoming: Dark Cybertron Chapter 10| The Becoming}} When the Ammonites attacked Cybertron shortly afterwards, he joined in the fight there. {{storylink|Black Planet: Dark Cybertron Chapter 11|Black Planet}}

Some time later, he helped run Swerve's (fake) "Crewditions" {{storylink|World, Shut Your Mouth Part 1: Towards Peace|Towards Peace}} and took prospective new crewmembers [[Riptide (G1)|Riptide]], [[Nautica (G1)|Nautica]], [[Mirage (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Mirage]], and [[Nightbeat (G1)|Nightbeat]] on a tour of the ''Lost Light''. {{storylink|No Guns, No Swords, No Briefcases}} He also began working on an experimental one-act, single stage play about [[information creep]] (called, unimaginatively, ''[[Information Creep]]'') but didn't have time to write the play before he, and every other original crewmember of the ''Lost Light'', vanished. {{storylink|Twenty Plus One}}

On a quantum duplicate ''Lost Light'', Crosscut did indeed finish ''Information Creep'' and was performing it at Swerve's when the [[Decepticon Justice Division]] arrived to massacre everyone. {{storylink|slaughterhouse}} When the original ''Lost Light'' reappeared, Crosscut and the rest of the crew returned along with it. {{storylink|slaughterhouse Part 2: The Road Not Taken|The Road Not Taken}} Some time later, he was seen drinking in Swerve's once again. {{storylink|The Lopsided Triangle}}

[[File:HowBrightTheirFrailDeeds-LostLightmutiny.jpg|thumb|left|270px|For Crosscut is an honorable man; so are they all, all honorable men]]
Crosscut attended Megatron's classes on the [[Knights of Cybertron]]. However, at some point he was approached by [[Getaway]] and [[Atomizer]] and vouched that he would support them in the event of a mutiny against the former Decepticon and his supporters. When the time came, the mutineers stranded [[Megatron (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Megatron]], [[Hot Rod (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Rodimus]], Swerve, and the others on the [[Mortilus|Necrobot]]'s planet and Crosscut stood alongside Getaway as he took the ''Lost Light''. {{storylink|The Dying of the Light: (1) How Bright Their Frail Deeds|How Bright Their Frail Deeds}}

After accepting Getaway as their new captain, Crosscut and the crew were unwillingly subjected to mnemosurgery by [[Sunder (G1)|Sunder]]. Their memories were altered to believe Rodimus and the others left the ''Lost Light'' of their own accord, abandoning the rest of the crew. {{storylink|The Plotters' Club (Part 2): Filling in the Blanks|Filling in the Blanks}} Crosscut was socializing at [["Visages"]] when [[First Aid (G1)|First Aid]] and the [[Protectobot (G1)|Protectobot]]s caught up with the ''Lost Light''. He sincerely explained what he ''believed'' had happened in First Aid's absence, although the doctor noted irregularities in the story he was told. {{storylink|The Plotters' Club (Part 1): Full Circle|Full Circle}}

Getaway ultimately betrayed his crew, however. When they were trapped by the [[Phantom Fleet]] of the [[Adaptus|Grand Architect]], Getaway turned Crosscut and the rest of his crew over to the Architect's ally, [[Scorponok (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Scorponok]]. They were subjected to a [[Sparkeater (creature)|Sparkeater]] virus, making them shambling, zombie-like drones who were later unleashed on Rodimus when his people caught up with them. {{storylink|Crucible (Part 1): A Dance Before Dying|A Dance Before Dying}} Crosscut was eventually cured and attended the ''Lost Light'''s farewell party in Swerve's. {{storylink|How To Say Goodbye And Mean It: Part 2}}

===''Beast Wars: Uprising''===
On post-war Cybertron, '''Cross-Cut''' was an immobile [[Builder of Cybertron|Builder]] and a member of the [[Builder Assembly]]. He and [[Kudon]] tried to advance the possibility of allowing a [[Micromaster]] into the Assembly, prompting [[Halogen (G1)|Halogen]] and [[Sigil (BWU)|Sigil]] to look for another Decepticon member to counter progress. {{storylink|Identity Politics}} [[Eject (G1)|Eject]] thought unfavorably of Cross-Cut and his fellow assemblymen. {{storylink|Broken Windshields}}

When the [[Grand Uprising]] of the proto-races started going badly, it was Cross-Cut who suggested the Assembly rescind [[General Order 66]], allowing their [[Vehicon (BM)|Vehicon]] drones to cross over into [[Iacon (polity)|Iacon]] and protect the Assembly directly. He was talked out of it by Administrator [[Eject (G1)|Eject]], and withdrew his proposal. When [[Ratbat (G1)|Ratbat]] revisited the proposal, Cross-Cut voted against it, but the order was rescinded by the majority. Instead of being their salvation, the Vehicons turned on their masters and assimilated all the assemblybots present, including Cross-Cut. {{storylink|Derailment}}

:Part of the tenth wave of 2012-onwards ''[[Transformers: Generations (toyline)#T30|Generations]]'' Deluxe Class toys, ''[[Thrilling 30]]'' Crosscut is a retool of [[Skids (G1)#Generations|Skids]], featuring a new head based on Crosscut's original toy. He transforms from a contemporary-looking hatchback into a heavily-armed robot, featuring (non-launching) missile pods in both shoulders, dual flip-out guns on each wrist, and two pairs of over-the-shoulder cannons. He comes with a rifle resembling his original toy's electromagnetic pulse emitter and a pistol based on a [[nudge gun]]. These weapons can combine into a larger rifle, and can be held or peg onto his vehicle sides via [[5 mm post]].

:The leg assembly error that many Skids figures had seems to have been corrected on this release. He has visible light-piping on the back of his head, but his eyes are painted yellow, rendering it useless. Sadly the balance problem was also left unresolved, causing Crosscut to have a great deal of trouble standing up unless posed in a way that offsets the weight.

:In the United States and Hasbro's Asian markets, he came [[pack-in material|packed]] with the Hasbro exclusive cover variant of "[[The Dead Are Not Enough: Dark Cybertron Chapter 7]]", with its pages out of order (pages 1-4 are placed between pages 20 and 21).

==Notes==
[[File:G1Skids-instructions.jpg|thumb|This is not my beautiful skull!]]
* Crosscut's "new" head and coloration are based on one of the original pre-''Transformers'' ''[[Diaclone]]'' versions of the "Honda City R" mold. The original silver version was only available in a "double set" with a blue version of the "4WD Hi-Lux Wrecker" (pre-[[Hoist (G1)/toys|Hoist]]) that was ''also'' only available in that set. A red ''Diaclone'' version of the Honda City R was never ported over to ''Transformers'' but did eventually inspire the character [[Reboost]].
* Crosscut and Road Rage are notable for being the first additions to the Generation 1-era cast of characters after the original line ended since the short-lived ''[[Machine Wars: Transformers|Machine Wars]]'' series. This also started the general trend toward e-HOBBY releases being new characters rather than old characters in new colors.
* There is evidence that this version of the mold was the one originally intended to be released in the original [[The Transformers (toyline)|Generation 1 line]] rather than the "Honda City Turbo" model that would become Skids. The original Skids's instructions have the Crosscut mold's line-art, and in the [[The Transformers (Marvel comic)|Marvel UK comic]], artists [[Dan Reed]] and [[John Stokes]] drew Skids with Crosscut's head in several panels. It's possible the Turbo model was chosen because its face was more human-looking (to go along with the generally more humanized faces the characters were given in the cartoon), but this is merely speculation.
* The ''Diaclone'' figure also had a variant black deco in stock photography, but this version was ultimately not released.<ref>[https://twitter.com/_necronomitron_/status/1395127144468992000 Catalogue scan by Twitter user @_necronomitron_, 19 May 2021]</ref>

Optimus Prime (G1)/toys

B-712: /* The many releases of Optimus Prime */ g1v1 doesn't work

{{suite}}
[[File:G1 OptimusPrime boxart.jpg|thumb|upright=1.95|Awwwwww yeah......]]
Since 1984, [[Optimus Prime (G1)|Generation 1 '''Optimus Prime''']] has received the largest number of toys for any single ''[[Transformers brand|Transformers]]'' character, a testament to the character's enduring popularity and status as a hero to many fans.

Due to the popularity of the character and the evergrowing [[Generation 1 continuity family]], this article had become far too large, causing internet browsers to struggle loading all of its contents—and in the most extreme cases—crashing entirely. For the sake of a nice clean split, we have opted to move all of Optimus Prime's ''[[Transformers: Generations (toyline)|Generations]]'' toys into a separate article which can be found '''[[Optimus Prime (G1)/Generations toys|here]]'''.

==''The Transformers''==
{{anchor|G1v1}}
[[File:G1 OptimusPrime toy.jpg|thumb|upright=1.66|From the ''Diaclone'' Battle Convoy came Optimus Prime and all his subsequent incarnations.]][[File:G1toy optimus prime variants and running changes.jpg|thumb|upright=1.66|Most people would be happy with just ''one'' Optimus Prime, but noooooo...]]
*'''Optimus Prime''' (1984, 1985, 1986)
**''Takara ID number:'' '''01'''
**''Accessories:'' Laser Blaster, 2 fists (left & right), [[Trailer]]/[[Combat Deck (G1)#Toys|Combat Deck]], [[Roller (G1)#Toys|Roller]], 4 rockets, hose, nozzle, fuel pump

: The original Optimus Prime toy started life as the ''[[Diaclone]]'' toy, "Battle Convoy", created by a team of [[TakaraTomy|Takara]] designers who came on board when the original designer fell behind. This team included [[Hiroyuki Obara]] (listed as the sole creator on the toy's patent) and famed mecha designer [[Shōji Kawamori]]. The toy transforms into two major components; the first component being a red and blue White Freightliner WFT-8664T cabover semi-trailer truck partially composed of [[die-cast]] metal, and the second component being a large silver trailer of currently-undetermined model.

:The cab transforms into the [[robot mode]] of Optimus Prime himself, with the addition of a pair of removable blue fists that plug into his headlights. The fists themselves do not store anywhere in vehicle mode, but can fit easily in Prime's opening chest compartment (originally designed to accommodate two ''Diaclone'' driver figures). Prime is armed with a black laser rifle that, due to design, he cannot hold straight. His smokestacks can rotate, but don't serve much purpose whatsoever.

:Prime's trailer opens up into his [[Combat Deck (G1)|Combat Deck]], containing the scout drone, [[Roller (G1)|Roller]]. The interior of the Combat Deck features three pegs that can accommodate Prime's laser rifle, fuel pump and nozzle accessories, and seating for two ''Diaclone'' drivers. As its central feature, the Combat Deck features a missile-armed repair drone pod mounted upon a boom lift arm (featuring another cockpit for a ''Diaclone'' driver), which can also be extended through holes in the trailer's roof and front-end when it is closed. Situated in the base of the boom arm is a spring-loaded launcher that can launch Roller out of the Combat Deck and into action. Roller himself has seating for four ''Diaclone'' passengers, and features a port that can accommodate either Prime's rifle or the fuel pump. The interior space of the trailer allows storage room for one standard Autobot car, which can also be shot forward by the launcher.

:Optimus Prime was subject to several molding and color variations in his early days. The earliest release of the figure featured larger fists, a gun with a thick, round barrel, a slightly-differently shaped gas pump, grey rockets, a grey Roller, a grey launcher in his Combat Deck, and metal plates in the floor of the Combat Deck (a holdover from the ''Diaclone'' version of the toy, to which the magnetic feet of the pilots could cling). In short order, his fists were slimmed down, the gun's barrel was pared down to a more slender form, the gas pump's shape was altered, the rockets and launcher were recast in black plastic, the metal plates were removed from the Combat Deck, and Roller's color was changed to a light blue. Along with Roller's color change, however, the Combat Deck's drone pod also became light blue, and a third running change soon followed that saw it restored to its original darker blue, and Roller changed along with it. These modified components would become the default accessories used by subsequent reissues of the Prime toy, though Roller stills fluctuates back and forth between grey and dark blue, depending on how [[show-accuracy|show-accurate]] each reissue wants to be.

:The Japanese release of the figure also underwent the changes in weapon shapes, but never featured a silver Roller; instead, their original release of Prime featured a ''Diaclone''-style Roller without the two rear pegs, and the differently-shaped launcher that accommodated him, before a running change switched over to the Hasbro version of the mold. Finally, in some European countries, Prime sported red feet, as opposed to his traditional blue; this version of the figure is also known in some cases to feature a differently-painted forehead crest which leaves the three central indentations unpainted blue.

:For the mainland Europe [[Milton Bradley]] release, there were two [[variant]]s of Optimus Prime available: the first version, manufactured by [[TakaraTomy|Takara]], sported blue feet like most other versions; the second version, manufactured by [[Joustra]]'s parent company [[Ceji]], sported red feet instead.<ref name="3mb" /> On top of that, the Italian release of "Commander" by [[GiG]] eventually featured a [http://www.fredsworkshop.com/vprime6.html later variant] that replaced the rubber tires and [[die-cast]] feet with plastic parts, similar to the US [[KB Toys]] variant of [[Ultra Magnus (G1)/toys#Toys|Ultra Magnus]].

:Having been removed from toy store shelves after 1985, Optimus Prime was made available as a mail-away toy in the "[[Digital Doom on the Highway to Destruction (G1)|Digital Doom on the Highway to Destruction]]" offer in the US in 1986 to coincide with the [[The Transformers: The Movie|Transformers movie]] premiering that year. He cost $21.50 and 5 [[Robot Point]]s. He was also offered in 'The Autobots Have A Special Mission For...' mail-away pamphlet and came with a special "Movie Edition Certificate" and a round sticker that read " Movie . Edition . Transformer" with the Autobot symbol in the middle. (This item is considered ''rare''.)

:Over twenty-plus years, there have been a ''bajillion'' releases of this mold, some identical to the original toy, and some featuring significant variants with notably different paint jobs, color schemes, accessories and other pack-ins. We have striven to list all these variants on this page under their respective series; for a quick-reference list of all variants and releases [[#Notes|check here]]. The cab robot has also been used sparingly to represent different characters; outfitted with different trailers, it has become Generation 1 [[Ultra Magnus (G1)/toys|Ultra Magnus]] and [[Pepsi Convoy]].

:A limited edition of the Optimus Prime toy sold as a mail-away exclusive by [[Pepsi|PepsiCo]] was made available in North America in 1985. This version of the figure came with a small fold-out leaflet glued to the top-right of the packaging, which contained two Pepsi logo stickers for the buyer to attach to Prime, mid-way through the traditional silver-and-blue stripe on his trailer. [[Canada]] also got a version of this promotional figure, but with much larger stickers that were the full length and height of the trailer. This promotion would go on to serve as the inspiration for the Japanese character of [[Pepsi Convoy]], who would in turn be released by Hasbro as a new "[[#PepsiPrime2007|Pepsi Optimus Prime]]" in 2007.

**''ID number:'' '''C-69'''
**''Accessories:'' Large robot head, rifle, chest plate, 2 trailer connectors/waist plates, 2 small robot fists (left & right), 2 large robot fists (left & right), 2 missile launchers, 4 missiles
{{note|Ultra Magnus' inner white Optimus Prime redeco was [[repurposing|repurposed]] as Optimus Prime in the ''[[Transformers vs. G.I. Joe]]'' issue "[[The War Never Ends]]".}}

: Ultra Magnus is a [[redeco]] of the ''[[Diaclone]]'' "Powered Convoy" figure, itself a redeco and slight retool of "Battle Convoy", the toy that became the original Optimus Prime figure, sporting a new trailer. One of the last few ''Diaclone'' toys to be released in the ''Transformers'' toyline, Magnus was recolored from the original toy's dark blue, red and black color scheme into a more patriotic red, white and blue, though his chestplate, which was rendered white in his package art followed a more the blue color scheme of his shoulders. He transforms into a Freightliner COE, towing a car-carrier trailer capable of transporting up to four normal-sized Autobot cars. As with Optimus Prime, his cab transforms into a small robot, which can then combine with the trailer to form a "super robot", although all original Generation 1 fiction prior to the 21st century ignored this and simply rendered the super robot as Magnus's default robot form. To facilitate this combination, Magnus sports a slightly longer front axle than Prime, thereby creating tabs on either side of the cab that slide into grooves in the trailer to help lock the small robot into place. He is armed with a rifle sporting two handles that allow either of his [[robot mode]]s to hold it, and two shoulder-mounted missile launchers, whose spring-loaded firing mechanism was removed for the Hasbro release of the figure.

:The ''Diaclone'' Powered Convoy figure had several additional features and modes which were mostly excised or left unmentioned for the ''Transformers'' release of Ultra Magnus. Principally, Powered Convoy came packaged with "Powered Buggy", who was left out of Magnus's release (see [[#Notes|notes below]] for further details). Omitted from Magnus's instructions is the ability of his chestplate and super robot head to combine to form a small vehicle; the Powered Convoy version of the figure included small rolling wheels on the underside of the chestplate which were removed for Ultra Magnus. Additionally, three additional modes were included in the ''Diaclone'' instructions that Hasbro left out: a "preparation base" mode and an "Autobot base" mode were excluded entirely, while the third, a "catapult launcher" mode originally intended and proportioned to accommodate the ''Diaclone'' Jet Robo figure that became [[Starscream (G1)/toys|Starscream]], was shown only on the front of his packaging, interacting with [[Silverbolt (G1)|Silverbolt]]. The Japanese release of Ultra Magnus—released as part of the ''[[Fight! Super Robot Lifeform Transformers (toyline)#Toys 2|Scramble City]]'' sub-line—''did'' include instructions for the preparation base and catapult launcher modes, but replaced the original Autobot base mode with a new configuration.

:The original Ultra Magnus figure has been reissued and redecoed several times down the years, and this article strives to list each edition of the figure under its own heading. The first alteration to Magnus, however, was a [[variant|running change]] made while he was still on shelves: Originally, his tires were made of [[rubber tires|rubber]] and he sported paint on both his small and large robot heads, but this version was soon replaced with one featuring plastic tires and no paint on either head. In addition, the clear yellow plastic that formed his windows was removed from the cab, leaving just holes instead; and his thighs and fuel tanks were left white, as opposed to the vacuum metalized chrome ones of the original release.

:The small robot component, as well as being part of Optimus Prime, was also released with a different trailer as [[Pepsi Convoy]].

*'''Optimus Prime''' (Powermaster, 1988)
**''Accessories:'' Hi-Q Powermaster unit, 2 Laser Rifles, 2 Twin [[Particle beam cannon|Particle Beam Cannons]], Super Robot head

:Powermaster Optimus Prime was the first new toy of the Autobot leader since the original toy's release in 1984. He is an all-new design, featuring the [[Powermaster]] gimmick: His partner figure, Hi-Q, must be transformed into an engine and attached to Prime's vehicle mode in order to enable the transformation into robot mode.

:Like the original figure, Powermaster Prime is composed of two major components: his truck cab, which transforms into Prime himself, and his trailer, which is essentially a heavily-armed version of the original. The trailer has a fold-down ramp to allow the storage of a smaller Transformer, or perhaps spare accessories. The trailer transforms into a battle station armed with two long black rifles and two grey double-barreled cannons (featuring seating for Powermaster engine figures), all of which Optimus Prime can also wield in his fists.

:Aside from the Powermaster feature itself, the main [[gimmick]] of the toy is the ability of the truck cab to combine with the trailer to form the larger "Super Optimus Prime" figure. This is essentially accomplished by standing the trailer up, folding the cab in half and inserting it into the empty cavity in the trailer's torso, forming an imposing—if almost entirely unposeable—robot form armed with all four weapons. The head of this super robot form is a separate piece which can be stored in the rear of Prime's trailer when not in use. While Hi-Q was always shown plugged into Prime's chest in artwork of this mode (as seen in the picture here), this was actually entirely unnecessary as transforming into Super Optimus Prime didn't require the standard Prime toy's legs to be unlocked.

:The Japanese release of Powermaster Optimus Prime actually represented a new character named [[Ginrai (human)|Ginrai]], and featured several retools: the cab featured die-cast metal, shortened smokestacks, vacuum-metalized plastic and clear blue windows, while the trailer was given retractable super robot fists. This Japanese version was eventually issued by Hasbro in 2003 as part of the [[The Transformers: Generation One Commemorative Series|Commemorative Series]] collection ([[#Commemorative Series|see below]]).

:This toy was later redecoed into the Japanese-exclusive Nucleon Quest Super Convoy.

:There were several different prototypes made for this toy. [[#Powermaster Optimus Prime design history|See a list here]].

*'''Optimus Prime''' (Action Master, 1990)
**''Accessories:'' 2 Laser Guns, Galactic Pulverizer Gun Barrels, 4 Blaster Cannons, 2 Energon Exhaust Stack, Photon Bazooka

: The largest [[Action Master]] set, this incarnation of Optimus Prime is a non-transforming action figure which comes with the "[[Armored Convoy]]", a large, heavily armed tractor trailer. The cab of the truck transforms into a small jet that can seat one Action Master figure, while the trailer itself converts into a larger battle station with turrets that several Action Masters can man. The sculpt of the Prime figure itself is closely based on his [[character model]], albeit with a coloration that seems to have been based at least partially on the small robot form of his Powermaster body.

:The Action Master Optimus Prime figure was later redecoed with a more [[Show-accuracy|show-accurate]] color scheme and included in the Japanese-exclusive "New Year" reissue of the original Optimus Prime toy in 2002.

:Also, unlike the one seen in the commercial, the final product loses paint operations of Optimus Prime's upper legs.

**''Accessories:'' Laser rifle, [[Micro Trailer]], Microcarrier, small cannon, cannon turret stand, radar, connector, 2 ramps

: As the final new-design Optimus Prime toy from the original Generation 1 era, the Japanese-exclusive Star Convoy was a significant departure from previous versions. This incarnation of Prime transforms into an extended-hood cab truck of made-up model pulling an implausibly large trailer, incorporating the motorized "Microcarrier". [[Motorized movement|Powered by four AA batteries]], the Microcarrier drives Star Convoy either forward or backward, spinning a radar dish mounted on the rear of his trailer as he rolls along. Prime's teammate in the [[Battlestars]], [[Grandus (ROC)|Grandus]], can link up to the rear of Star Convoy's vehicle mode and be pulled along behind him; [[Sky Garry (ROC)|Sky Garry]] can then land atop Grandus, forming a giant vehicle.

:Unlike previous Optimus Prime toys, the cab section does not separate from the trailer for transformation, instead forming the arms of his imposing 12-inch tall robot mode. He lacks any sort of leg articulation in this mode, but the Microcarrier comes into play again, allowing Prime to roll either forward or backward into action.

:Additionally, Star Convoy transforms into a large battle station that interacts with the [[Micromaster]]s that made up the vast majority of the ''Transformer'' toyline at the time. His chest contains a peg that allows Micromaster figures to stand inside it in either robot or base modes, and he comes with a unique Micromaster version of [[Hot Rod (G1)/toys#Return of Convoy|Hot Rod]] not available on its own. He features storage space in his legs for two spring-loaded figure-launching [[Micro Trailer]]s, and comes with one of his own, decorated in a unique black and orange color scheme. In this mode, two ramps are connected to the Microcarrier; when the carrier's treads are set rolling, they do not move the base, but instead act as conveyor belts that carry Micromaster figures down the ramps. The Microcarrier also spins a gun turret mounted between the conveyors, on which Micromaster figures can stand. Finally, a special connector packaged with Star Convoy allows the Microcarrier to be connected up to Grandus's base mode, powering his moving elevator.

**''Accessories:'' Laser Blaster, 2 fists (left & right), trailer/Combat Deck, Roller (light blue), 4 rockets, hose, nozzle, fuel pump, 2 missile launchers, 2 missiles, sound and lights module

:The first ''Generation 2'' Optimus Prime toy is a [[redeco]] of the original Generation 1 figure release with some notable new additions to catch him up to radical 1990s. While his cab robot retained his original red and blue color scheme, his trailer was recast in black, with the original blue and silver striped sticker replaced with a red and silver one displaying Optimus's name. On the first release of the trailer, the internal components and Roller matched the blue of the cab robot. Later, the internal components and Roller were changed to a lighter blue. Another running change followed, making the dark blue of the cab robot match this lighter shade. A bright yellow "Autobot" [[tampograph]] was also added to the back of his right leg.

:''Generation 2'' Optimus Prime comes with all his original accessories, as well as two major new play features. To increase his arsenal, Optimus is now armed with a pair of large, black handheld missile launchers that fire red missiles. These launchers were retooled from the ''[[G.I. Joe (team)|G.I. Joe]]'' figure [http://www.yojoe.com/action/92/barricade.shtml Barricade]. Second, he comes with an electronic "sound and lights module" that can either plug into the front of the trailer (where it resembles a trailer refrigeration unit), or hook onto Optimus's back in [[robot mode]] via a new slot retooled into the cab robot. Unfortunately, the soundbox is heavy enough that doing so can often overpower Prime's hip joints, causing him to topple backward. The soundbox features a large, [[vacuum metallizing|vacuum metalized]] Autobot symbol on its front, and three grey buttons which trigger two flashing red LEDs on either side of the module, and [https://tfwiki.net/mediawiki/images2/c/c6/G2OptimusNoises.ogg a trio of sound effects]: a truck engine noise, a laser gun sound effect, and a very loud "I am Optimus Prime!". The module also features ports on either side into which the missile launchers can peg.

:How the sound module handles batteries is an oddity among Transformers before or since. As G2 Optimus came out during a transitional period where button cell batteries were still fairly expensive, the module uses AA batteries by default, but was originally packed with a small bracket for included LR44 batteries that overrides the AA compartment completely to support the "Try Me!" feature in the box. The original intent is to discard the bracket once the LR44s run out and switch to several AA batteries, but if one were to keep it, the electronics can work equally well solely off far fewer button cell batteries.

:[[Hero (G2)|Hero]] Optimus Prime was the first new-mold Optimus Prime toy created for the ''Generation 2'' line.

In addition to a small gun, he is armed with a large missile launcher, which can fire a rubber-tipped rocket by means of a bellows which you slam your fist down on to produce a puff of air. The launcher is accessible in both modes, ending up mounted on his right forearm in robot mode; the bellows is attached via a rubber hose and cannot be disconnected, but stores on the figures's back when not in use, as do the rockets.

[[File:G2toy laser optimus prime.jpg|thumb|upright=2.2|What was that about shoulder-speakers, Jazz?]]

: Laser Optimus Prime (released in Europe under the name "Laser Rod Optimus Prime") transforms into a mid-1990s Western Star 4964EX, pulling a grey and black fuel tank trailer. The sides of the trailer are decorated with a sticker depicting Prime using a flamethrower to burn down a banner with the words "Optimus Prime Octane" on it. The truck is armed with a disc launcher on the roof of its trailer, which launches five blue discs bearing the ''Generation 2'' Autobot insignia as a knob is turned. Like the other "[[Laser Rod|Laser]]" toys released this year, Prime features electronics powered by two button-cell batteries; in truck mode, pressing the button on the cab's roof causes his headlight to light up with yellow LEDs.

:In the grand Optimus tradition, the cab of Laser Optimus Prime disconnects to become the highly poseable robot mode of Prime himself. Like Powermaster Prime and Hero Prime, the toy features the iconic windshield pecs and grill abs, despite not actually being formed from the actual truck components they emulate. In robot mode, pressing the button on Prime's cab (now on his back) activates a red LED in his right fist which illuminates his clear-plastic sword (which stores beneath his legs in truck mode).

:Prime's trailer unfolds via a spring-loaded transformation mechanism in a battle station that is positively ''bristling'' with varied weaponry. In addition to the disc launcher, it is armed with a "ripple-fire" missile launcher that fires five missiles, an air-powered rocket launcher like the one previously seen on Hero Optimus Prime, and a small laser cannon that mounts on the base's main tower. Both the missile launcher and laser cannon can disconnect and be held by Prime; his LED-fist will illuminate the laser cannon like it does his sword. Additional missiles and a second rocket are stored in grooves inside the sides of the trailer.

:This mold was redecoed by Takara in 2000 as ''[[Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2001 toyline)|Car Robots]]'' [[Scourge (RID)|Black Convoy]], sans electronics. The following year, it was released by Hasbro as Black Convoy's [[Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2001 franchise)|2001 ''Robots in Disguise'' franchise]] counterpart, Scourge, with retooled discs that lacked the Autobot insignia and a blunted sword, again sans electronics. Following this, the next use of the mold was planned to be ''[[Transformers: Universe (2003 toyline)|Universe]]'' [[Toxitron (Universe)|Toxitron]], which ended up being canceled. The modified Scourge tooling was also used when Laser Prime was reissued by Takara in 2006 with a modified deco ([[#G2reissue|see below]]), and for the e-Hobby exclusive [[Ultra Magnus (G1)/toys#G-2|Laser Ultra Magnus]] that accompanied the reissue's release, with electronics restored. In 2015, ''[[Transformers: Platinum Edition|Platinum Edition Year of the Goat]]'' Optimus Prime, another repaint version, comes with partially transparent plastic torso.

:In addition to being the most popular Generation 2 figure, Laser Optimus Prime was, prior to 2003, a regular contender for most popular Transformers toy ''ever'', back in the days of the annual [[alt.toys.transformers]] fan awards; the toy won twice, and actually lost once to his redeco, Scourge.

**''Accessories:'' Gun

: A redeco of the ''Generation 2'' [[Go-Bot (G2)|Go-Bot]] [[Firecracker]], Optimus Prime transforms into a red Hot Wheels-sized Lamborghini Diablo. Like most Go-Bots, he features high speed axles and can roll very well across smooth surfaces, but lacks the weight to propel him quickly. He is armed with a small red laser rifle. The plastic colors are a "solid" version of Firecracker's color layout, substituting opaque red for transparent red plastic.

:The Japanese release of this toy swapped out the orange plastic for neon yellow, and had a large tampograph on the car's hood that was shaped like a stylized letter 'T', with the Transformers logo in it. Going against the grain, this toy was released in Japan with the name "Optimus Prime" instead of "Convoy".

:In Europe, this deco was sold as Firecracker himself rather than Optimus Prime (at least in the French/Dutch/German packaging variant). The sculpt was later redecoed again for the third wave of Go-Bots to become [[Sideswipe (G1)/toys#Go-Bot|Sideswipe]] (who Prime ''really'' looks a lot like), and later still into the [[Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2001 toyline)|2001 ''Robots in Disguise'']] [[Spy Changer]] [[R.E.V.]].

: Combat Hero Optimus Prime was to be a redeco of Hero Optimus Prime in dark blue and red. Packaged samples of this toy were produced, but it was ultimately never released.

:The packaged samples feature a "traditional" color scheme for the head, with a silver [[mouthplate]]; the prototype depicted in the official catalog image seen on the right sports an unusual ''red'' mouthplate, which inspired several later toys.

**''Accessories:'' Two swords
:The first ''[[Beast Wars: Transformers (toyline)|Beast Wars]]'' [[Optimus Primal (BW)/toys|Optimus Primal]] is a Basic size class blue bat which could autotransform into a robot by pulling the tail. Two swords were removable from under its wings for use as weaponry in [[robot mode]]. It was packaged along with an alligator version of Megatron and a ''Beast Wars'' mini-comic.

:This figure was released during the short-lived period when Hasbro was treating the Beast Wars as an extension of the Autobot/Decepticon war, and Optimus Primal was presented as being the same character as Optimus Prime. This was soon relegated to the realms of [[micro-continuity]] when the ''Beast Wars'' animated series began and clearly established that the two Optimuses were different characters, but the toy remains one that was officially branded as Prime, and is consequently listed here.

**''Takara ID number:'' '''C-1'''
**''Accessories:'' Two swords, four missiles, flail
: The second Optimus Primal toy was an ape in the Ultra size class. Though the transformation from primate to humanoid was a relatively simplistic one, the toy compensated with more than a fair share of weaponry and action features. A compartment on his right forearm opened to reveal a skull-shaped mace he could hold in his fist. His left forearm could open into a double-barreled missile launcher. On his back were two spring-loaded missile launchers which auto-flipped over each shoulder. By pulling a lever in the center of his back, both arms would either spin at the bicep or bend in and out at the elbow, depending on the placement of notch-buttons located on either bicep. This gimmick was shown to be an effort to simulate a gorilla beating its chest while Optimus was in [[beast mode]], but could also be used in robot mode, making him swing his weapons wildly before himself. And finally, like many first-year ''Beast Wars'' toys, a battle mask/"[[mutant head]]" could be deployed over his robot head.

:Takara released the toy as part of their ''Beast Wars'' line in July of 1997, nearly identical to the Hasbro version. The missiles for the Takara version are thinner and simpler than the original Hasbro version, and would be used in all subsequent releases of the mold.

:Just like Optimus Primal's basic bat toy, this figure was released during the short-lived period when the Beast Wars was still considered to be an extension of the Autobot/Decepticon war, and Optimus Primal was the same character as Optimus Prime. This was soon relegated to the realms of [[micro-continuity]] when the ''Beast Wars'' animated series began and clearly established that the two Optimuses were different characters, but the toy remains one that was officially branded as Prime, and is consequently listed here.

:This mold was [[redeco]]ed into ''[[Transformers: Universe (2003 toyline)|Universe]]'' Optimus Primal and [[Transformers: Beast Wars Telemocha Series|Beast Wars Telemocha Series]] DX Convoy, and [[retool]]ed into ''Beast Wars Reborn''/''Beast Wars Tenth Anniversary'' versus pack Optimus Primal. Takara also created multiple special variants, including all-gold (from ''Tele-V Magazine'', only ten awarded), red and gray (''Tele-V'' again, but only ''one'' awarded), and blue-fur (a ''Comics Bom Bom'' design-contest prize, only five awarded).

*'''Optimus Prime''' (Ultra, 1997)
**''Accessories:'' Laser rifle, 2 missiles

: Available only at [[KB Toys]], ''[[Machine Wars: Transformers|Machine Wars]]'' Optimus Prime is a [[redeco]] and slight [[retool]] of the European Generation 1 exclusive [[Turbomaster]] leader [[Thunder Clash#Toys|Thunder Clash]], transforming into a Cybertronic truck cab. It's easy to see why Thunder Clash was chosen to become the new Optimus Prime, given his adherence to Prime tradition: the cab disconnects to become the robot, while the trailer unfolds to become an assault tower with twin missile launchers. On the original Thunder Clash version of the mold, the launchers operated on a gravity-feed system that saw a new missile drop into the launcher from above each time one was fired, allowing for twelve to be fired in rapid succession, but for ''Machine Wars'' Prime, this feature had to be dialed back [[for safety reasons]]. The missiles had to be lengthened to prevent choking hazards, and so the toy's launchers were modified to accommodate them, becoming straightforward spring-loaded single-firing weapons. The original Thunder Clash [[sticker]]s were not properly redecoed to match the new Machine Wars color scheme, resulting in white stickers that are meant to be unnecessarily applied to white patches on his pelvis.

: The [[package art]] for this toy is a retouched version of the art for ''[[Transformers: Generation 2 (toyline)|Generation 2]]'' Laser Optimus Prime (see above), but now positioned so one robot arm is always "off the edge" of the box and unseen - conveniently hiding the sword that the toy no longer has.

: This version of the mold was planned to be [[redeco]]ed into [[Menasor (G1)|Menasor]] for the ''[[Transformers: Universe (2003 toyline)|Universe]]'' line, but the release was canceled.

:The first reissue of the original Optimus Prime toy in North America since the Generation 1 toyline reached its end, this "[[The Transformers: Generation One Commemorative Series|Commemorative Series]]" edition of the figure was a Toys"R"Us exclusive. It was ''mostly'' identical to the original figure, save for some necessary modifications made [[for safety reasons]]: In the first instance of what would become a recognizable alteration to the mold, the toy's smokestacks were shortened, while the Combat Deck's firing missiles were elongated to prevent potential choking, as was the case with all other Commemorative Series figures' firing missiles. This release also had the trailer's launching feature removed.

:In 2012, a reissue of the Commemorative Series toy was released. Though the "Commemorative Series" label was not printed anywhere on the packaging, the included instructions retained the name. The toy itself is a mix of different versions. The cab has the safety modifications of the original ''Commemorative Series'' release, including the shortened smokestacks and longer missiles (and thicker rifle), but also has the modified hitch of the 2011 ''Chronicle'' two-pack (see below). Meanwhile, the trailer features the lighter gray plastic colors used for the 2008 ''Universe'' release, and the Autobot insignias on the robot's shoulders are tampographed (like on Takara's ''Encore'' version and Hasbro's ''Universe'' 25th Anniversary release). This version also seems to suffer from [[Mold#Deterioration|mold deterioration]].

:Marketed as a reissue of Powermaster Optimus Prime, this Toys"R"Us-exclusive Commemorative Series figure is in truth based on the Ginrai tooling on the toy that had previously been exclusive to Japan. It features a die-cast metal cab with translucent blue windows, and shortened, chrome smokestacks, and comes packaged with the drone [[Apex Bomber]] (formerly Ginrai's partner [[Godbomber]]), who splits into several components and combines with Prime to form "Apex Armor". As with all other Commemorative Series figures, Prime's new spring-loaded missile launcher featured an elongated missile.

:The figure was re-released in Hasbro's Asian markets in 2012, with no known changes to the figure itself but several modifications to the packaging that makes it easy to tell the two releases apart: The flap containing the [[package art]] is omitted entirely, the "Commemorative Series II" label is missing, the age recommendation and safety warning labels, the "Changes from double tractor trailer to battle station to super robot!" call-out and the name of the toy have all been shuffled around (with the words "battle" and "super" being omitted in the process), and most notably, the toy is no longer named "Powermaster Optimus Prime with Apex Armor", but simply "Optimus Prime", with Apex Bomber's existence no longer acknowledged anywhere on the packaging.

:''20th Anniversary'' Optimus Prime was produced for the stated milestone of the ''Transformers'' brand. So successful was the figure that ''ToyFare'' magazine ultimately ranked it #1 in their quest for "Best Toy Ever".<ref>[http://www.wizarduniverse.com/magazine/toyfare/000054376.cfm ToyFare Magazine Best Toys Ever]</ref>

:Created with the specific purpose of producing an Optimus Prime as accurate to the original animated series as possible, the toy is exceptionally poseable compared to toys prior, partially constructed from die-cast metal, features rubber tires and vacuum-metalized plastic and is heavily detailed, with sliding pistons in its joints and working spring-loaded suspension in vehicle mode. The figure also contains multiple non-intrusive gimmicks, such as a moving [[mouthplate]] to emulate Prime's traditional method of speech, flip-up communications panels on the forearms depicting images of [[Bumblebee (G1)/toys|Bumblebee]] and [[Starscream (G1)/toys|Starscream]], and an opening, light-up Matrix chamber in the chest, which contains a removable vacuum-metalized Matrix of Leadership that can also be pulled open. The Matrix is housed within a removable gray battery box which can light up the matrix core when activated.

:Optimus Prime comes with many accessories in addition to the aforementioned Matrix, including the character's traditional laser rifle, now termed (and henceforth known as) an [[ion blaster]]. The initial release of the figure cast the ion blaster in grey plastic, but later assortments recast it in its more familiar black coloration. Other accessories include a transparent orange energon-axe that plugs into either wrist when Prime's fist is retracted, and even a non-transforming gun mode Megatron weapon, with removable stock, silencer and scope accessories, in homage to [[Countdown to Extinction (episode)|several]] [[The Insecticon Syndrome|instances]] in the Generation 1 cartoon when Prime was forced to wield his enemy. Pack-in bonuses that came with the figure included an inner cardboard tray illustrated to resemble the interior of Prime's Combat Deck, and in later releases, a small poster drawn by [[Pat Lee]].

:Takara's version of the figure was released in their markets slightly earlier, as the first of their long-running ''[[The Transformers: Masterpiece|Masterpiece]]'' line. In addition to coming with a cardboard trailer that the buyer could assemble to "complete" Prime's truck mode, Takara's release differed from Hasbro's by featuring longer smokestacks (kept short on the Hasbro version [[for safety reasons]]), and lacking the black scorch-marked "battle damage" paint applications Hasbro included on the figure's shoulders, wrists and abdomen. In Western markets, the figure was intended to complement the ''[[Transformers: Alternators|Alternators]]'' line.<ref>[http://www.camphortree.net/tf/tidbits/otfcc2004.txt Steve-o's OTFCC 2004 notes]</ref>

:This sculpt was redecoed by Takara into a golden Lucky Draw figure and later released in its original coloration with a trailer as a "Perfect Edition" (see below for both), while Hasbro would later redeco it into their ''[[Transformers: Classics|Classics]]''-branded "[[#Classics|DVD Edition]]". The mold was also used to make ''Masterpiece'' [[Ultra Magnus (G1)/toys|Ultra Magnus]] and "[[Eldedroid|Convoy Black Version]]", representing one of many drones built in Prime's image, rather than Prime himself.

:In ''[[Transformers History Collection]]'', a [[Blindpacking|blind-packed]] Transformers trading figure line, Takara released an add-on hand for ''Masterpiece'' Convoy as a [[Chase figure]]. The hand holds a [[Spike Witwicky (G1)|Spike Witwicky]] figure and clips on to the end of Optimus Prime's arm, making the arm slightly longer than normal.

The parts which are not viable are molded in a flat golden plastic; the only exceptions are its rubber tires, the core of the Matrix and the energon-axe, which remain black, blue and orange, respectively. Whether or not the figure was intended to evoke Optimus Prime's [[:File:Goldenlagoon prime perceptor.jpg|entirely-golden appearance]] in the cartoon episode "[[The Golden Lagoon (episode)|The Golden Lagoon]]", when he was coated with [[electrum]], is unknown; given that entirely chroming a figure gold is a fairly standard deco for Lucky Draw figures, it may just be happy coincidence more than anything else.

:The figure comes packaged in the standard ''Masterpiece'' Convoy box, with the only telltale sign of its fabled contents being the replacement of the traditionally silver foil lettering on the box with gold. It's not clear how many were made, but it is thought to be no more than 10 or 20.

**''ID number:'' '''MP-4'''
**''Accessories:'' Trailer/Combat Deck, ion Blaster, Autobot Matrix of Leadership, gun mode Megatron, Megatron's scope, stock and silencer, energon-axe, cardboard trailer

:For this re-release of ''Masterpiece'' Convoy, Takara submitted to the biggest desire fans had for the figure and produced a full-size, fully transforming plastic and die-cast metal trailer. The trailer opens up into Convoy's Combat Deck, with storage for its accessories and a functional repair drone, though Roller is conspicuous by its absence. Like the original Combat Deck, the drone can extend through holes in the roof and front of the closed trailer, and the interior has enough room to accommodate one ''[[Transformers: Alternators|Alternators]]'' figure in [[alternate mode|vehicle mode]]. Some reports suggest that the paint on this figure's chest chips more easily than past editions.

:This version of Convoy, and Hasbro's 20th Anniversary DVD version of the toy depicts [[Megatron (G1)|Megatron]] and [[Grimlock (G1)|Grimlock]] on its communicators rather than Bumblebee and Starscream.

:Continuating the trend begun by their previous release of ''Masterpiece'' Ultra Magnus in 2005, Hasbro [[Australia]] released Convoy Perfect Edition as a Target Australia [[exclusive]] in 2008. Takara themselves then made the figure available for a second time in October 2009.

**''ID number:'' '''MP-4S'''

:Released by TakaraTomy as part of a 2010 promotion honoring the "future era" of the original cartoon (which was set in 2010 in Japanese continuity, you see!), this exceptionally morbid re-release of the ''Masterpiece'' Convoy figure recolors the Autobot leader in blacks and greys, representing ''his dead body'' from ''[[The Transformers: The Movie]]''—but don't worry, kids, it's actually a "sleep mode", according to the figure's name! Limited to 2010 pieces in Japan (see what they did there?), it comes with all its customary accessories, including the Perfect Edition trailer, redecoed where appropriate: the trailer itself has become translucent, its energon-axe is now transparent grey, and Megatron, in another movie homage, is rendered in translucent purple, evoking the scene depicting his transformation into [[Galvatron (G1)/toys|Galvatron]]. The figure was also released in other parts of Asia as a limited edition of 2010 as well, combined with the Japanese edition for 4020 total. The Japanese version denotes "Serial Number in Japan: ####/2010" on its bio card with the number out of 2010, while the Asian version denotes "C1 - ####/2010" with the number out of 2010 on its bio card.

:This version of Convoy depicts [[Hot Rod (G1)/toys|Hot Rod]] and [[Ultra Magnus (G1)/toys|Ultra Magnus]] on its communicators.

**''ID number:'' '''MP-1L'''
**''Accessories:'' Ion blaster, Autobot Matrix of Leadership, gun mode Megatron, Megatron's scope, stock and silencer, energon-axe, sound stage

:"Convoy Last Production" was the final re-use of the ''Masterpiece'' toy mold before it was at last retired after numerous re-releases and redecos. The figure is essentially identical to the original Japanese MP-1 release, aside from a slightly brighter red, and the addition of the words "LAST SHOT" in Transformers typeface molded into the small of Convoy's back, hidden beneath its headlight-flaps in [[robot mode]]. Lacking the trailer of MP-4, the figure instead comes with a redecoed version of the electronic base included with Hasbro's "[[#20thDVD|DVD Edition]]" of the figure from five years prior, which now features a collection of sixteen soundbytes of Convoy delivering famous lines from the Japanese version of the Generation 1 cartoon, recited by the character's original Japanese voice actor [[Tesshō Genda]]. The base was promoted as containing a hint as to the identity of the next ''Masterpiece'' toy; as it would turn out, this was a new version of Convoy himself (see below), foreshadowed by a sound clip on the base which played only intermittently, and which had Convoy announce that he would "soon be reborn".

:For its release in Korea, Hasbro Asia provided a [[collector coin]] featuring truck-mode Optimus Prime on one side and "MP-01L" on the other. The coin came mounted on a card featuring lineart of the Autobot leader's head, the stark black design of which could be mistaken for promoting the earlier "Sleep Mode" release. The limited release (and general lack of enthusiasm for the collector coins in Korea) makes this one of the more difficult Masterpiece coins to find.

*'''Convoy''' ([[September 24]], 2011, 2016)
**''ID number:'' '''MP-10'''
**''Accessories:'' [[Ion blaster#mp10|Ion blaster]], [[Matrix of Leadership/toys#mp10|Matrix of Leadership]], [[Energon-axe#mp10|energon-axe]], [[Combat Deck (G1)#mp10|trailer/Combat Deck]], [[Roller (G1)#Masterpiece|Roller]], [[Spike Witwicky (G1)#Masterpiece|Spike Witwicky figurine]]

:MP-10 Convoy, advertised as a "perfect new model" on its packaging, is an entirely new tooling of Generation 1 Optimus Prime. Convoy is now smaller, making him more in-scale with other recent ''Masterpiece'' toys, such as [[Hot Rod (G1)/toys#Masterpiece|Rodimus]], and comes with a trailer and various accessories. While the front of the vehicle mode's cab is an accurate depiction of a mid-to-late-1980s Freightliner FLT cabover, the back half, (which is, as usual, made out of Convoy's legs) is much larger and robot-leggier in proportion. (So much that they sculpt a ladder on each side.)

:Many of the small features and electronics of the original ''Masterpiece'' mold are left out. Instead, this Convoy features better overall cartoon accuracy (chest interior, head, etc.), an extensive red paint job that covers much of his red plastic, corrected robot mode proportions, improved articulation, and its gun can now collapse and store inside a compartment on its back in either mode. In addition to Convoy's trailer, which can transform into Combat Deck, it also comes with Roller, a small Spike Witwicky figurine, a die-cast metal Matrix of Leadership (with a clear blue plastic center), and an energy axe that slips over Convoy's right hand. Spike can fit inside the cab in vehicle mode, ride in Roller's seat, or fit into any of the seating compartments inside Convoy's trailer. Roller has options to plug in Convoy's gun or pull Convoy's trailer, and the trailer itself can store Convoy's weapons in any mode. Although not easily breakable, care must be taken for posing the index fingers; extending the finger even far would cause it to pop off.

:Being a brand new and intricate remake of the Autobot leader, MP-10 was used as the gold standard in terms of scale for future Masterpiece figures, with all the upcoming releases being sized to best match him. Much like his older incarnation, he was also cherished by collectors, generating heated debates on which version is the best one up to this day.<ref>https://www.google.pt/search?q=mp01+vs+mp10</ref>

:On the other hand, this mold also became a staple source for various [[knockoff]]s, ranging from recolored to upscaled/downsized figures.

:This figure was re-released in 2016, with the packaging now advertising the "Long Life Design" award which the ''Masterpiece'' line won that same year.<ref name="lldaward">[https://www.g-mark.org/award/describe/44648 Good Design Long Life Award: Transformers Masterpiece]</ref> This mold was also used to make [[Nemesis Prime (G1)#Masterpiece|MP-10B Black Convoy]].

:An entirely new mold released to commemorate the brand's 35th anniversary, the third ''Masterpiece'' Convoy is a much more complex and cartoon-accurate figure than previous releases. At 50,000 yen (approximately $450 USD), this Convoy had the highest MSRP of any mass-market ''Transformers'' toy until ''[[War for Cybertron Trilogy (toyline)|War for Cybertron]]'' [[Unicron/toys#War for Cybertron|Unicron]]'s $575 price tag was announced.

:Alongside the Trailer (which retains the same function and can hold 4 standard-sized Autobot cars at a time when open), Roller, the Ion Blaster, Matrix of Leadership, and Energon Axe, the Combat Deck's base can be removed and with the new flip-out wheels, Roller (now cast in stark grey with silver rims) can tow it around. The cannon and arm section can also be removed so it can function as a flight stand, while an adapter for [[Dinobot (BW)#Masterpiece|MP-41 Dinobot]]'s display stand is also included, and the Ion Blaster now has 2 effect parts, which can simulate blaster fire and when used with the Sideswipe rocket pack included, can be used as booster flames. He also comes with a fuel hose like that on the original figure, as well as a soundbox feature that can be switched between recorded lines by the character's original Japanese ([[Tesshō Genda]]) and English ([[Peter Cullen]]) voice actors, with transformation effects (though the ascending and descending transformation sounds are spliced together in his English voice) and Douglas Walsh music to boot! As to note, Cullen's clips are closer to the recent [[Aligned]] portrayals.

:Like [[Megatron (G1)/toys#MP36|MP-36 Megatron]], Convoy includes a battle-damaged head and an abdomen cover to replicate the war wounds in the climatic battle in the movie, and alongside a newly designed figure of Spike, he comes with two of Sparkplug and Carly, any of them capable of riding inside via 2 small doors on the side of the cab. A second alternate head is based on his head's rounder design seen in the first season of the cartoon and the Marvel Comics. His accessories can be stored in the trailer's removable undercarriage.

:This figure, with the included intakes and alternate head in place, also doubles as [[Starscream (G1)/toys#MP44|Starscream]] from "[[Megatron's Master Plan, Part 1]]".

:Unfortunately, Convoy has been known to suffer from differing quality control issues. Because of a design flaw, certain plastic parts in his lower ratcheted knee joints tend to build stress during movement and eventually break. Furthermore, grey and yellow paint in parts that tend to get scratched and bumped during transformation have been prone to paint chipping. Some units have come with their [[For safety reasons|soft plastic]] ear antennas on different heads warped in-package. The human minifigures can have their ball jointed limbs rather easily popping out of their sockets and misassembled ( in this case, Carly with her groin part in reverse from the front).

:Unlike MP-01 and MP-10, this version of Convoy did not get a fully localized Hasbro release for English-speaking markets. However, it is being imported by Hasbro through numerous retail outlets with additional branding using the localized Optimus Prime name and presumably with the same Hasbro-branded slipcover and English safety sheet given to other contemporary ''Masterpiece'' releases. In Canada, the figure is being released as an EB Games exclusive, where he'll cost even more than the game consoles sold there! Hasbro's online product description neglects to mention the voice box gimmick, possibly due to English-speaking audiences' unfamiliarity with Japanese ''Transformers'' media and the fairly late reveal of his English-language voice clips.

:This mold was redecoed, with the sound gimmick removed, as [[Nemesis Prime (G1)|Black Convoy]], without the trailer, battle damaged, and Starscream parts.

: ''[[Robotmasters (franchise)|Robotmasters]]'' "G1 Convoy" (as he is amusingly referred to even in fiction) visibly takes its cue from ''20th Anniversary'' Optimus Prime, featuring a similar sculpt, but sharing few to none of the larger toy's other attributes, least of all anything that could be described as a successful transformation.

:G1 Convoy comes with two sets of fists, each pair featuring differently-shaped fist holes: one pair with square holes to hold the figure's "Convoy Gun" (as his ion blaster is called), and the other with round 3mm-compatible holes to hold the spring-loaded translucent blue missile launcher (a generic accessory also available with ''Robotmasters'' [[Megatron (BW)/toys|Beast Megatron]] and [[Optimus Primal (BW)/toys|Beast Convoy]]). The fists are swapped out by simply popping them out of the wrist-hinge that holds them in place; the figure also includes an energon-axe that can be inserted into the wrist instead of a fist.

:Due to being molded in translucent plastic, the waist section is prone to breakage, so exercise some caution.

**''Accessories:'' Trailer/Combat Deck, Roller, ion blaster, gas pump, energon-axe, Autobot Matrix of Leadership, [[jet pack|rocket pack]], 8 hands (4 left, 4 right), Autobot insignia stand

: ''Hybrid Style'' Optimus Prime is an ''insanely'' detailed and complex transforming toy, created under the supervision of famed mecha designer [[Shōji Kawamori]]. Standing only three and three-quarter inches tall in robot mode, the figure is partially constructed from die-cast metal and features one of the most complex transformation sequences ever seen on a ''Transformers'' figure of its size. Alas, the small size of the figure also works against it, as it required several design concessions that resulted in (if we're being nice about it) an unimpressive cab mode.

:Prime is loaded with a ridiculous number of features and accessories. The robot itself is highly poseable, and both the smokestacks on Prime's shoulders and the fuel tanks on his legs can be rotated forward to act as guns, even featuring sculpted detail to this effect. As ever, he comes with a trailer that opens up into his crazy-detailed Combat Deck, featuring more action features than ever before. In trailer mode alone, it features a flip-down support stand so it can stand alone, a spring-loaded pop-out ramp instead of a fold-down one, and when the trailer is split for transformation, the traditional support legs underneath automatically swing out into place. The trailer houses most of Prime's accessories, including his ion blaster (with a moveable ammo clip to allow for multiple poses) and energon-axe, as well as his classic gas pump accessory, now with a poseable wire instead of a rubber hose. Two fold-out compartments provide storage space for six of Prime's interchangeable fists, while the other two remain attached the robot: two clenched, two open, a pointing right fist, a tilted left fist (for holding the ion blaster's ammo clip), and two fists with slots to grip the miniscule Matrix of Leadership that fits in a tiny chamber in Prime's chest. The Combat Deck's artillery robot features two flip-out handles that Prime can grip as if aiming the drone's guns, and Roller is also included, with three different 3mm ports to hold Prime's gun and gas pump. Lastly, Prime comes with a rocket pack like those used by the Autobots in such Generation 1 cartoon episodes as "[[Dinobot Island, Part 1|Dinobot Island]]", and a stand shaped like the Autobot insignia that allows him to be displayed in mid-air, as if in flight. The rocket pack also has 3mm ports for Prime's weapons, and stores on the front of the trailer in vehicle mode.

:Purchase of a ''Hybrid Style'' Optimus Prime at a Japanese [[Toys"R"Us]] store allowed the buyer the option of also purchasing the exclusive ''[[Smallest Transforming Transformers]]'' [[Hot Rod (G1)/toys#Smallest Transforming Transformers|Hot Rod]] toy.

:Available exclusively through e-Hobby, this black and teal repaint of ''Hybrid Style'' Convoy features the traditional "[[Nemesis Prime (disambiguation)|Nemesis Prime]]" color scheme, but represents a version of Optimus Prime himself. In addition to all the original accessories, the toys also includes several more deliciously metatextual goodies, themed around the ''Generation 2'' toy and comics: two new large guns patterned after the new weapons wielded by the ''Generation 2'' Optimus Prime toy, and two additional (blue) Prime heads that can be swapped with the figure's regular noggin, sculpted explicitly in the style of [[Transformers: Generation 2 (Marvel)|''Generation 2'' comic]] artist [[Derek Yaniger]]. One head is pristine, the other decorated to match the battle damage seen on the cover of the [[War Without End!|first ''Generation 2'' issue]].

:As the more franchise-savvy TransFans may realise, these extra parts, plus the black trailer of Convoy Black Version, can all be used to modify the original, red ''Hybrid Style'' Optimus Prime into a comic-accurate ''Generation 2'' version, complete with a black trailer, trailer-mounted guns and your choice of Yaniger-style heads.

:This figure came in a unique box, packaged with a [[Hybrid Style Convoy Black Version|mini-comic]], both illustrated by [[Hidetsugu Yoshioka]].

*'''Optimus Prime''' (2006)
**''Alternator ID number:'' '''21'''
**''Accessories:'' Engine/gun

: ''[[Transformers: Alternators|Alternators]]'' Optimus Prime transforms into an accurate 1:24 scale Dodge Ram SRT-10. The vehicle mode features rubber tires, functional steering, opening hood, tail gate and doors with a detailed cabin interior. Several of the details of his [[robot mode]] body are based on the sculpt of the 20th Anniversary Optimus Prime figure, but the head itself shares more similarities with the Powermaster mold. He is armed with a small pistol which transforms into his vehicle mode engine.

:This figure was originally conceived by Hasbro to be another character (exactly who is unknown), rather than Optimus Prime, but Takara insisted that the toy be made into Optimus to help it sell well in their markets, as the vehicle mode was no particular draw, given its scarcity in Japan. Reportedly, the figure cost twice as much as other Alternators to construct, so Hasbro had to bow to this demand so Takara would help fund it. Ironically, Takara eventually wound up soliciting the figure ''not'' as Prime, but as his ''[[Transformers: Super-God Masterforce (franchise)|Super-God Masterforce]]'' lookalike, [[Ginrai (human)|Ginrai]] (perhaps connected to the Powermasteresque headsculpt), before its Japanese release was cancelled and moved over into the ''[[Transformers: Kiss Players (toyline)|Kiss Players]]'' toyline (see below).

: It took two further years, but this figure was eventually released as part of the Japanese counterpart to the ''Alternators'' line (''Binaltech'') in 2008. ''Binaltech'' Convoy features some additional paint details, like his silver pelvis, additional patterns on his shoulders, and red paint on his engine-gun, and like all ''Binaltech'' figures, he also includes die-cast metal pieces. Unlike previous Binaltech releases, a bio-card was not included.

:This sculpt was also used to create ''Alternators'' [[Nemesis Prime (G1)|Nemesis Prime]].

: ''[[Transformers: Kiss Players (toyline)|Kiss Players]]'' Convoy is a redeco of ''Alternators'' Optimus Prime. While the figures may appear similar at first glance, given that ''Kiss Players'' Prime is still red, blue and black, there are many subtle differences, not least of all the replacement of the ''Alternators'' figure's bare, flat red plastic with a deep metallic red paint. Several of his body parts are cast in different colors of plastic (for example, his shins, formerly black, are now blue, while his formerly-blue hands are now black), and he features more intricate paint applications on his shoulders, and especially his pelvis, which is decorated to look like Prime's traditional bumper.

:In addition to the small engine-pistol of his ''Alternators'' figure, Prime comes with the "Surfblade", a pink surfboard that can be reconfigured into either two small knives or a large double-bladed sword. As with all the ''Kiss Players'' figures, Prime also comes with a [[plastic|PVC]] figurine of a cute girl: in this case, Marissa Faireborn, who can perch upon his shoulder or sit in his driver's seat, and comes with two pairs of interchangeable arms and legs. Additionally, the set includes a CD featuring the first five episodes of the [[Transformers: Kiss Players (radio drama)|''Kiss Players'' radio drama]], as well as the exclusive bonus audio adventure, "[[Transformers: Kiss Players (radio drama)#CD collections and special episodes|Someday, Under the Sun]]."

:This set was originally intended to be released under the ''[[Transformers: Alternators|Binaltech Asterisk]]'' line, as "Black Convoy meets Marissa", but this release was cancelled before it was officially even announced.

The figure was personally designed by comic artist [[Don Figueroa]], who created the original comic design in the first place, and his signature is left on the figure in the most literal way: the word "DON" can be seen sculpted into the barrel of his silver ion blaster.

:As a ''Titanium'' figure, Prime is made in large part from die-cast metal, but like so many of the other toys in the ''Titanium'' line, his plastic joints have trouble supporting his heavy metal weight. He comes with the generic display stand shared by all of the 6" "Cybertron Heroes", with a unique removable nameplate.

: ''[[Transformers: Classics|Classics]]'' Optimus Prime is an all-new modern Optimus Prime design based upon the original Optimus Prime, as is the intention for the ''Classics'' toyline. He transforms into a modern cab-over style truck of made up model, dominated by a large wind vane on his roof. As with most ''Classics'' toys, he features a heat-sensitive [[rubsign]].

:In [[robot mode]], his wind vane transforms into a large ion blaster, and his smokestacks transform into a smaller laser cannon. Additionally, both weapons can combine together to form a double-barrelled over-shoulder weapon. Undocumented in the instructions, Optimus can also use the wind vane as a shield, If one of his fists is folded down. The unusually high amount of yellow paint used throughout the body is supposed to emulate the yellow stickers from the original G1 toy.

:The toy has a trailer hitch, but does not come with a trailer. There do exist several [[IP theft|unlicensed upgrade kits]] that have a trailer compatible with all versions of this mold.

**''Accessories:'' Laser rifle

: This ''Classics'' Optimus Prime is a smaller, Deluxe Class figure with a noticeable physical resemblance to Takara's ''[[#Robotmasters|Robotmasters]]'' Prime figure, and a transformation that is about as successful. The figure is armed with a tommy gun-shaped laser rifle that transforms into a turret-like configuration and mounts on the rear of his truck mode, and features a spinning "power punch" action that sees the whole upper half of his torso spin when a button on his back is pressed. Pressing the button "unlocks" the spinning mechanism; pull ''hard'' on the button, and you can lock the torso back into place.

:In the United States, Prime was only available in a special two-pack with a similarly unique ''Classics'' [[Megatron (G1)/toys#Classics (2006)|Megatron toy]], and the specially-produced "[[Optimus Prime vs Megatron: The Ultimate Battle|The Ultimate Battle]]" DVD (which is, inappropriately enough, entirely about the [[Unicron Trilogy]]).

International markets, including European countries, saw the two-pack in a considerably smaller, differently-shaped box that was lacking the DVD case (the DVD was instead made available separately). In addition, Mexico, Singapore and some European countries such as the Netherlands and Hungary also received the two figures on individual cardbacks. For the United States market, the two-pack was [[rebranding|rebranded]] and re-released in [[Transformers: Universe (2003 toyline)|2003 ''Universe'']]-branded packaging later in 2007, available from Dollar General, Big Lots and [[KB Toys]], and ''again'' in [[Transformers (2010 toyline)|2010 ''Transformers'']]-branded packaging in 2011, this time available from Dollar General and Big Bad Toy Store.

: Produced to coincide with the 20th anniversary of ''[[The Transformers: The Movie]]'' and its release on DVD by [[Sony]], this edition of Prime is a redeco of his ''[[#Masterpiece|20th Anniversary]]'' figure. It replaces the original's metallic paint with flatter colors and does away with any and all vacuum-metalized plastic, as well as altering several other small details across the body, like the color of the lights on his feet and chest.

:Prime comes with all the accessories of his previous release, although his ever-changing ion blaster is now somewhat confusingly cast in blue plastic. He features one major additional accessory: an electronic display base sculpted with the image of the Matrix and the Autobot insignia. Pressing the insignia's crest triggers a series of electronic soundbytes, mostly quotes from the movie recited not by original actor [[Peter Cullen]], but by Hasbro's in-house actor, [[Ron Hayden]]: "Autobots, transform and roll out!", "I want you to make a special run to Autobot City," "Megatron must be stopped!", "All we need is a little energon, and a lot of luck," and two samples of the classic [[Transformation#The noise|transformation sound effect]], one ascending, one descending.

:The display stand itself was later redecoed as a mail-in prize for TakaraTomy's ''[[Welcome to Transformers 2010]]'' promotion, intended to be used with ''[[The Transformers: Masterpiece|Masterpiece]]'' [[Hot Rod (G1)/toys|Rodimus Convoy]], and again when it was packaged with the "Last Production" run of the Masterpiece Optimus Prime toy.

*'''Pepsi Optimus Prime''' (Autobot, 2007)
**''Accessories:'' Left & right fists, ion blaster, trailer

:Inspired by the [[#The Transformers|1985 promotional version]] of Optimus Prime that featured Pepsi stickers on his trailer, this outlandish incarnation of Prime is a slightly altered version of Takara's 2005 [[Pepsi Convoy]] figure (which represented a different character to Prime). The figure was only sold by [[Hasbro Toy Shop]] at various conventions, and given away as a promotional prize by Pepsi, via their [[Mountain Dew]] brand.

:A redeco of the original Generation 1 Optimus Prime cab robot sporting an egregious number of Pepsi-themed paint masks and details, Pepsi Prime's differences from Pepsi Convoy are minimal: he features the shortened smokestacks previously seen on the [[#Commemorative Series|Commemorative Series]] release of the mold, the blue pattern on his decals are different (matching the American Pepsi can/bottle look at the time rather than the one used in Japan), and also has a different layout for the Pepsi logo on his right shoulder. Like Pepsi Convoy, he comes with an entirely new trailer unit, specially designed to carry either a single 500ml (16.9 oz) size [[soft drink]] bottle, three 350ml cans, or 12 bottle caps (bottle cap figurines being a common and popular collectible item in Japan). In a first for the Prime mold, the figure's fists store in holes on the underside of the trailer while he is in vehicle mode. His ion blaster (which also stores under the trailer) is the first Hasbro reissue to feature the original, thick-barrel sculpt, which was reinstated to the mold by the ''[[#Transformers Collection|Transformers Collection]]'' release of Prime a few years prior.

**''Accessories:'' Ion blaster
:Surely one of the strangest examples of licensed ''Transformers'' products, ''[[Transformers Sports Label|Sports Label]]'' Convoy transforms into a ''shoe''. Something of a [[shellformer]], this baffling incarnation of Prime is colored primarily white and red in his alt mode of a realistic-looking (if notably undersized) Nike Free 7.0 sneaker, complete with gratuitously long real fabric shoelaces. In [[robot mode]], he is made instantly recognizable by his incorporation of some additional blue and silver in predictable areas, and a traditionally Prime-styled head. Less traditionally, and somewhat perversely, Prime's feet are sculpted in the likeness of his own sneaker mode, making it seem like he's wearing himself!

:His gun splits into two halves and stores inside his [[kibble]] in shoe mode; in an undocumented feature, it has two handle pegs on opposite sides, so that it can be held either at its far end or halfway along its length. The gun halves can also be plugged together in two different ways.

:This figure was, in fact, the ''only'' mold in the ''Sports Label'' line. It was redecoed into the "Marine Free" version of Prime himself (see below), and given a new head to create ''Sports Label'' [[Megatron (G1)/toys#Sports Label|Megatron]]''

This edition of the figure featured no extra accessories, but it did include the original, thick-barrelled version of Prime's rifle, as reinstated to the mold by the ''[[#The Transformers Collection|Transformers Collection]]'' version of the toy a few years prior. Both his blue and red plastics are lighter than normal, though not to the extent of Hasbro's subsequent 25th Anniversary release.

:Notably, this edition addresses the small but persistent issue of the Autobot insignias on Prime's shoulders: Ever since 1984, applying the stickers evenly had been a challenge due to small bumps the figure's shoulders are textured with. Like the [[Pepsi Convoy]] figure released two years prior, ''Encore'' Convoy replaces the stickers with [[tampograph]]s.

**''Accessories:'' Trailer/iPod dock, 2 fists (left and right), ion blaster

: Hot on the heels of their licensing deals with Pepsi and Nike, TakaraTomy got themselves a slice of Apple™ pie and released Convoy —playing [[iPod]] speaker— as part of their small, musically-themed ''[[Transformers Music Label|Music Label]]'' line. This version of Prime is an all-white redeco of the original Generation 1 cab robot, which (much like the "Marine Version" of Prime from the ''[[#Sports Label|Sports Label]]'' line) makes it seem like he ought to be Ultra Magnus. The figure is actually even derived from the retool of the mold created for the original Ultra Magnus figure, as distinguished by the elongated hubcap pegs on the front wheels. Like Pepsi Prime before it, the figure's fists now store in peg holes on the under side of its trailer. The toy lacks any of the original Prime's stickers (even the silver stripe on his chest is now a [[paint operation]]) and includes the original thick-barrelled version of Prime's blaster. The toy features a brand new headsculpt based on the [[#20th Anniversary|20th Anniversary]] Prime figure, given additional poseability not previously seen on the figure by being mounted on a [[ball joint]].

:This, of course, is all secondary to the main draw of the figure: it pulls an all-white trailer, which transforms into a working iPod speaker dock by rotating a substantial wedge of its full length 90 degrees . The dock features three working buttons; power, volume up and volume down, as well as an Autobot sigil indicator light. Included is a wall-plugging (Japanese) A/C adaptor with a long lead that plugs into the reverse of the trailer. Although American importers shouldn't have too much trouble, those living in parts of the world using higher strength A/C current outlets should be warned NOT to simply plug the A/C adaptor in with only a socket adapter, as this will overload the device and fry it completely. Buying the appropriate kind of universal A/C adaptor with advice from an electronics specialty shop is recommended.

:Designated "Optimus Prime" rather than the traditional Japanese "Convoy", this figure is a redeco of the previous ''Music Label'' Convoy figure into the character's traditional red, blue and silver color scheme. Unlike previous re-issues of the mold, iPod Optimus Prime's sports a paint application similar to KissPlayers Convoy, having its ABS/PVC parts painted over with a thin layer of his iconic red, white (silver if you will) and blue motif paint applications (with the exception of his iPod docking trailer). This includes his trailer, though the effect is somewhat marred by the large, visible gap on one side. When reconfigured into dock mode, the interior surfaces surrounding the speakers are decorated with black-on-silver techno-patterns as well as three "Optimus Prime" logos. The recessed space also features a stylised, almost [[Frank Miller]]esque, high-contrast portrait of Prime's face, although this is largely covered when an iPod is inserted. The figure comes in identical packaging to the original ''Music Label'' Convoy, save for the addition of a sticker illustrating the different color of its contents.

**''Accessories:'' Ion blaster

:Rounding out a bumper year of Japanese-[[exclusive]] Generation 1 Optimus Primes, the Takara-licensed Kawada brand ''Diablock'' Convoy is a fully transformable Lego-style block building figure similar in premise to the earlier American ''[[Built to Rule!]]'' sets. The ''Diablock'' figure, however, easily outstrips the ''Built to Rule!'' sets by both being an accurate representation of the toy on which it is based, and being able to transform between modes ''without'' having to be partially disassembled and put back together first.

:Forming a roughly 11-inch figure when fully assembled, ''Diablock'' Convoy is highly articulated, save for his head, which is only able to move up and down. Said head is also by far the most stylised aspect of the figure, with no real attempt to approximate Prime's face or mouthplate, instead featuring only a reversed block that gives the odd impression of a cycloptic eye. It is possibly intended to actually represent his forehead grill, as a yellow block inside his head construction remains barely-visible through a slit in his face, possibly intended to represent the classic toy's yellow eyes.

:The figure's [[transformation scheme]] is based on the original G1 figure, the only differences being that the fists are not removed but become the headlights, and instead of flipping backwards inside the chest, ''Diablock'' Convoy's noggin flips forwards with the aid of opening chest windows. A "laser rifle" in the shape of his ion cannon can be built from black bricks, and stickers bearing the Autobot [[Insignia|faction symbol]] can be placed on his shoulders, although this is not recommended as it is designed to permanently stick to multiple tiles which dislodge easily and may damage the sticker.

Also known by the nickname "Crystal Convoy" among fans, it was first released as an exclusive for the Japanese convention Tokyo Toy Fair 2008, limited to 1000 pieces at the event, but was later made available through [[e-HOBBY]]. It was sold in a monochrome-blue version of ''Henkei'' Convoy's regular packaging.

:[[vacuum metallizing|Chromed]] entirely in gold like many other [[Lucky Draw figure]]s before it, this version of Prime was available only through a ''[[TV Magazine]]'' mail-in promotion held in December 2008, and was limited to only five units, making it one of the rarest officially available Transformers toys in the world.

:Unfortunately, this toy has become the target of several [[knockoff]]s aimed at gullible collectors. Most of the fake ones can be told apart from the real deal by various details not matching up. The real one is cast in gold plastic, painted over in gold chrome and sports small red Autobot [[insignia|logos]] on both shoulders.

*'''Optimus Prime''' (2008)
*''Series'': G1
**''Accessories:'' Laser Blaster, 2 fists (left & right), trailer/Combat Deck, Roller, 4 rockets, hose, nozzle, fuel pump, sound effects module, comic, DVD

:Sold at the rather exorbitant price of $75, this re-release of the original Generation 1 Optimus Prime toy is actually one of the most visually different from the other "straight" reissues of the mold, despite Hasbro's assurance that this is the toy you had as a kid. Positively ''anemic'' in comparison with the original toy, this Prime's red parts are visibly paler than usual, while his blue parts are much lighter (although the version released at Canadian retail reportedly sports a deeper shade of red again). This shade of blue extends to both Roller (a lighter blue than his traditional dark shade, yet darker than the lightest the figure has been in its history) and the internal workings of his Combat Deck, which is itself a much flatter shade of light grey, compared to its normal dark, swirled metallic silver color. In addition, the toy features the now-customary shortened smokestacks, and the elongated missiles seen on the [[#Commemorative Series|Commemorative Series]] release, while the Autobot insignias on his shoulders are no longer stickers, but rather tampographs, like on Takara's ''Encore'' release. While all reissues of the Prime mold since 2003 have used the original thick-barreled mold for his ion blaster, this version includes the slender sculpt instead.

:As a 25th anniversary set, Prime includes several new pack-in bonuses: a reprint of the [[The Transformers (issue)|first issue]] of the original [[Marvel Comics|Marvel]] [[The Transformers (Marvel comic)|comic book]], a DVD containing all three parts of the [[The Transformers (cartoon)|animated series]] pilot [[More than Meets the Eye (mini-series)|"More than Meets the Eye"]], and three desktop wallpapers, and a battery-powered Autobot symbol that plays transforming sound effects, part of the first version of the ''Transformers'' [[theme song]], and three voice clips performed by Peter Cullen: "I am Optimus Prime!", "Autobot, transform and roll out!" and "Megatron must be stopped, no matter the cost." There are some reports that the Autobot symbol could be worn out or damaged during the time of purchase.

:Outside the United States, this set was available in a thinner rectangular box. It contained all the original accessories from the American release, but not the DVD. An English-only version of this packaging format was available in Asia and Australia (initially only available at Myer stores, but later also at Toys"R"Us, Kmart and Target, eventually at drastically reduced prices), while a bilingual English/French packaging variant was available in Canada, still including—though not advertised on the packaging—the (English only) comic book.

**''ID number:'' '''A-01'''

:''[[Transformers: Alternity|Alternity]]'' Convoy transforms into a 1:32 scale Nissan GT-R, featuring die-cast metal parts, an opening hood, trunk and doors, as well as an interior, complete with his feet and thighs being sculpted to form the back seats. This complex figure stands at 6.5" tall, and is armed with a pair of blasters on each arm. In the hyper-dimensional world of the oft-confusing ''Alternity'' fiction, this figure specifically represents the [[Optimus Prime (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity#Story of Binaltech|Optimus Prime]] of [[universal stream]] [[Primax 903.0 Beta]].

:The mold suffers from a [[Design flaw|minor design oversight]], wherein the rear Nissan badge collides with his left leg strut when the left foot is hinged over and pegged into a clear plastic socket during transformation, with the results being that the connection is slightly crooked, isn't very secure, and sometimes pops off, and that the crooked pegging often causes the socket to crack.

:''Alternity'' Convoy was simultaneously available in both this silver coloration, and a deco based on his traditional appearance termed "Vibrant Red" (see below). The figure was later redecoed to create "[[Nemesis Prime (Universe)#Alternity 2|Convoy Super Black]]" (representing not Optimus Prime, but ''[[Transformers: Universe (2003 franchise)|Universe]]'' [[Nemesis Prime (Universe)|Nemesis Prime]]), ''Alternity'' [[Ultra Magnus (G1)/toys#Alternity|Ultra Magnus]], and ''Alternity'' [[Dai Atlas (G1)#Alternity|Dai Atlas]].

*'''Optimus Prime''' (Deluxe Class, 2011)
**''Accessories:'' [[Laser Rod (weapon)|Sword]]

: Part of the sixth wave of the [[Transformers (2010 toyline)#RTS|2010 ''Transformers'' toyline]], this Optimus Prime is an all-new Deluxe Class mold based on the original ''[[Transformers: Generation 2 (toyline)|Generation 2]]'' Laser Optimus Prime toy ([[#LaserOptimusPrime|see above]]). Transforming into an International 8200 truck, he has some influences from the [[Optimus Prime (Movie)|live-action movie Optimus Prime]], including the more defined flames on his hood, athletic [[robot mode]] proportions and a more aggressive-looking translucent orange sword that can be held with both hands for maximum extreme chopitude. Optimus Prime features extensive use of translucent plastic in his arms, head and upper torso for a [[light-piping]] effect. Optimus also has a (non-detachable) matrix gimmick in robot mode that is formed by a relief pattern on the inside of the cab's side windows and is visible through the windshield/chest in robot mode. Like the Legends toy, he's part of ''Reveal the Shield'' and features a [[rubsign]], this time on the roof. He is also ''very'' articulated and poseable, even featuring ankles and wrists that are both [[Ball joint|ball-joint]]ed ''and'' [[Swivel joint|hinged]].

: The original Hasbro [[Stock photography|stock photos]] depict him as having red [[paint operation]]s on his kneecaps and the sunken ridges around his blue abs that the final product lacks. The photos on the cardback show him with a red Autobot symbol on his truck door and blue plastic instead of grey for the piece just in front of his rear tires. The back photo also depicts his side windows as being the same translucent orange as the front ones, when they are, in reality, a garish solid orange.

: Multiple reports suggest that the toy suffers from a [[design flaw]], inferior plastic quality, or both: Due to his hands having peg-holes that are a bit too small to accommodate 5 mm posts, they have a tendency to show stress marks on the inside after pegging his sword handle (or most other pegs) inside. Stress marks also tend to appear near his tiny hinged wrists. Fortunately, there have been no reports of the hands actually ''breaking'' on either location thus far.

: This toy was redecoed into ''[[Transformers Timelines (toyline)|Timelines]]/[[Transformers: Shattered Glass (toyline)|Shattered Glass]]'' [[Optimus Prime (SG)#BotCon2012|Optimus Prime]] and ''Timelines'' [[Scourge (RID)#Timelines|Scourge]], and was retooled into ''Timelines/Shattered Glass'' [[Ultra Magnus (SG)#Timelines|Ultra Magnus]].

His rifle transforms as well, folding and plugging into the roof of the vehicle mode. The rifle can also peg into his forearms, and, in its compact configuration, can attach to his shoulders via peg holes on the backs of his front tires or stored behind his back in [[robot mode]].

While the paint masks are identical to the Special Edition release, ''United'' Optimus Prime features additional paint operations on the hip, the stomach grille, the fold-up waist panels, the lower chest piece (at least in the front), and the forehead.

:Although the stock photo (pictured from the right) shows both of his biceps painted silver with his Autobot insignia tampographed on the left shoulder, the final product omits the paint operation (due to being molded with unpaintable plastic) and the insignia is placed on his left forearm, just like his ''Classics'' figure.

:The third ''United'' Optimus Prime toy is a redeco and slight retool of the [[#Transformers (2010)|Deluxe Class figure]] from Hasbro's 2010 ''Transformers'' toyline, itself an homage to Prime's ''Generation 2'' [[#LaserOptimusPrime|"Laser" form]]. The toy features translucent blue plastic as opposed to Hasbro's orange, red paint is used on the biceps instead of blue paint, extra red paint applications on the knees like the original's sticker detail, and more broken-up red apps on the shoulders. Silver detailing was added to the cab mode on the grill, the bumper, and near the doors. The blue plastic in cab mode is now black plastic to make the figure more accurate to the ''Generation 2'' original. The gray plastic is changed from the Hasbro version to more closely match the [[#G2reissue|2006 reissue of Laser Optimus Prime]]. Black paint was applied to the cab mode to mimic the fade from red to black on the original Laser Optimus, but still includes a flame deco like the Hasbro version, only in a different design. It lacks the roof-mounted rubsign of the Hasbro version, instead including Autobot insignias on the cab doors. (Disappointingly, they are Generation 1 insignias, rather than ''Generation 2'' ones!) Additionally, a retool was made to the peg on the inside of his right shoulder, to make it shorter and wider than the Hasbro version, allowing it to move freely without hitting the torso, unlike the Hasbro release.

:The only differences with the unreleased version, aside from the packaging, are that silver paint has been added to the previously unpainted grill/fender area, the blue paint operations have been changed to teal, and the red Autobot insignias have been replaced by purple Decepticon ones. Prime's [[bio]] apparently explains that he took on this new color scheme in order to infiltrate the Decepticon ranks, in response to recent attacks by some new Decepticon forces pretending to be Autobots.

:This reissue of the original Generation 1 Optimus Prime figure comes in a two-pack with the Deluxe-Class ''[[Transformers: Dark of the Moon (toyline)|Dark of the Moon]]'' [[Optimus Prime (Movie)/toys#Chronicle|Optimus Prime figure]]. Prime himself is almost identical to the ''Encore'' release, save for his trailer hitch which was retooled to allow a peg to be inserted within it while still being able to be inserted into the trailer itself (making it compatible with his G1 trailer and the new trailer included). Like the Encore release, he features lighter colors and tampographed shoulder symbols (which vary slightly from the Encore release).

:His original trailer is not included with the set; instead, he comes with [[Armored Weapons Platform#Chronicle|a new deluxe-scaled trailer]], not available with any other figure, based on the one towed by Prime in ''Dark of the Moon''. The trailer is compatible with both figures, and sports [[5 mm post|5mm post]]-holes that will hold (among many other things) G1 Prime's laser rifle and the [[MechTech]] weapon Movie Prime is armed with.

:Oddly, for their official [[stock photography|promotional photography]], Takara took an existing photo of Optimus Prime's robot mode that was at least a decade old, having previously been used as a very early (and inaccurate) illustration for Hasbro's then upcoming ''[[The Transformers: Generation One Commemorative Series|Commemorative Series]]'' reissue of the figure.

: Naturally, Optimus Prime got the biggest of the sets in the first year of ''Kre-O''. The set can be built into a large long-nose tractor-trailer rig with a removable "sleeper" cab that hides a computer station, and a trailer that can carry the set's two motorcycles or open up to carry larger car builds. The robot mode build includes a huge Optimus, based largely on the [[Optimus Prime (Movie)|live-action movie Optimus]], though with a head based almost directly on the [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys#Classics|''Classics'' Voyager Optimus]]. He is armed with a distressingly plain brick that fires pressure-launched missiles (aka his smokestacks). Most of the leftover parts in robot mode become a "headquarters" which is mostly just a random assemblage of mismatched-color panels and a pair of barricades. Both main builds leave numerous parts unused if you go expressly by the instructions, but hey, it's a building kit, surely you can find ''someplace'' to apply most of them.

: The set comes with a bevy of [[Kreon]]s, including Optimus Prime (this one based heavily on Generation 1 Optimus), [[Bluestreak (G1)/toys#Kre-O|Bluestreak]], [[Skywarp (G1)/toys#Kre-O|Skywarp]], and a pair of human [[Stunt Driver]]s. A packaging error resulted in some releases of this set to come with the promotional "Matrix chest" Optimus (see above) rather than the normal version pictured here.

:Speaking of errors, the instruction manuals (he has two) both have errors in their parts listings, showing numerous pieces in the wrong colors or not making it clear that some parts are, well, clear. Making things more confusing, not all of these miscolors are reflected in the step-by-step instructions, while a couple new ones are added there.

:"Mini-Con Combiner"' Optimus comes with one standard Kreon and four ''Cityville''-syle mini-Kreons of the same character, each one a different incarnation from various franchises. With some extra parts, the mini-Kreons become limbs to make a larger combiner-bot.

: The main torso-bot is based on Generation 1 Optimus's original body. Two of his limbs are based on ''[[Transformers: Armada (franchise)|Armada]]'' [[Optimus Prime (Armada)|Optimus Prime]]; one "normal" (Inferno helmet), one pre-[[Earth]]-body (Knock Out helmet). Another is based on [[Optimus Prime (Movie)|live-action Optimus]] (Soundwave helmet), and the remaining one (Ironhide helmet)... actually looks to be based on the Optimus-like-but-not-Optimus [[Micromaster]] [[Overload (G1)|Overload]]! The heck?

:[https://www.seibertron.com/events/fullsize.php?event_id=400&size=1&image=29 First shown at New York Toy Fair 2015], the Mini-Con Combiners were apparently cancelled without fanfare... a decision that must have come late in the day, as they went on to star in their own promotional animation, "[[Stuck in a Tree]]", released about eight months after the trade show.

**''Accessories'': Missile-launching rifle, missile, energy axe, cannon, left & right rocket pods, "Ultra Magnus" right forearm & fist

: Part of the first wave of "Battle Upgrade" ''[[Hero Mashers]]'' toys, Optimus is a non-transforming action figure with ratchet-joints, about six inches tall. He has multiple peg-holes all over that can be used to mount any ''Hero Mashers'' accessory. As a first-wave figure, he has extra ankle articulation that is not present in later waves (a cut that was made to all ''Hero Mashers'' lines, not just the ''Transformers''-branded ones).

: He is designed with a removable head, forearms, thighs, and lower legs, all of which use the same clip-peg/hole joint. This means his pieces can be swapped around in any order, as well as swapped with any other ''Hero Mashers'' figure... which includes figures from [[Marvel Comics]], ''[[Star Wars (franchise)|Star Wars]]'', and ''[[Jurassic Park|Jurassic World]]'', meaning you can make some pretty freaky combinations.

: While he is the same size as a standard Hero Masher, his larger [[size class|price point]] is made up for with a lot more parts and gimmicks. Both of his hands are removable, which allows for accessories to be placed in his wrist sockets, notably his iconic "energy axe". His rifle is a spring-loaded missile launcher. He also comes with [[Ultra Magnus (G1)/toys#Hero Mashers|Ultra Magnus]]'s right arm, which is a [[redeco]] of ''Hero Mashers'' [[Bulkhead (Prime)#Hero Mashers|Bulkhead]]'s, only molded to remove that toy's missile-launching gimmick.

: Part of the first (and only) wave of larger electronic ''Hero Mashers Transformers'' toys, the base Optimus Prime figure in this set is ''almost'' identical to the above "Battle Upgrade" toy; this version has a closed right fist that can hold accessories rather than the Battle Upgrade version's finger-pointy one.

: However, this set comes with a completely different (and much larger) pile of accessories to turn Optimus (or any other ''Hero Mashers'' figure) into a hulking armored warrior. He comes with an extra left forearm with an electronic light, used to light up clear-plastic accessories when they're plugged into his wrist socket. Several of these accessories take inspiration from the [[Optimus Prime (Movie)|live-action Optimus]]'s gear, notably a very ''[[Transformers: Age of Extinction (film)|Age of Extinction]]''-esque shield.

: Oddly, the big stompy boots accessories are designed in a way that Optimus is really far back in them, leaving a huge gap between his shins and the boots' "knee" guards. Presumably this is to accommodate other ''Hero Mashers'' toys with much larger footprints.

Henkei!'' release by omitting many paint details such as stripes on the cab, while the energy unit is colored black with a silver Autobot insignia in [[homage]] to [[#Generation 2|Generation 2 Optimus Prime]]. In robot mode, Prime's energy unit transforms into a large blaster and his smokestacks transform into a smaller laser cannon. Additionally, both weapons can combine together to form a double-barrelled over-shoulder weapon. He was available exclusively at [[TakaraTomy Mall]].

The tooling is identical to the 2012 release's running change variant, with the retooled hands and a hole on the back of his head/top compatible with [[Cyberverse (toyline)|Cyberverse]] [[C joint|3mm]] pegs.

:Bizarrely, the [[package art]] is lifted directly from the ''Generations'' Legends Class Optimus Prime/Autobot Roller two-pack's packaging, whereas the [[stock photography|stock photos]] depicted on the back of the packaging are taken from ''Reveal the Shield'' Optimus Prime's packaging and only slightly altered, advertising a "[[Reveal the Shield]]" [[rubsign]] [[gimmick]] the toy doesn't actually have. Meanwhile, Hasbro's official stock photos provided to online retailers (including an in-packaging photo) depict the toy with the sword that came with the running change variant of the sculpt's 2012 release, even though the actual toy doesn't include the sword.

:Legion Class Optimus Prime has been found at Family Dollar and Dollar General stores in the United States. A later [[variant]] repleaced the red Autobot insignia with a black version. This later version was also released at general retail in Australia, New Zealand, Europe, and Russia.

:This figure was made available again, without any changes, in 2015, this time in new packaging resembling the then-concurrent packaging design for the ''[[Transformers: Generations (toyline)|Generations]]'' line, but replacing the name "Generations" with "Authentic Transformers". It was also given a new Hasbro product code number and UPC barcode, thereby technically making it a separate product. In 2017, it was re-released ''again'', this time in a minor variant of the 2014 version's packaging (including the original product code number and barcode) that now lacked the reference to the non-existing "Reveal the Shield" gimmick.

:Like [[Bumblebee (G1)/toys#Transformers (2014)|Bumblebee]] and [[Starscream (G1)/toys#Transformers (2014)|Starscream]], the Black Insignia variant of the toy ended up being dumped to some hobby shop dealers in Asia., and even returned to discount stores like Five Below and 99 Cents Only in the US in 2020.

Like ''Unite Warriors'' [[Menasor (G1)#Unite Warriors|Menasor]], the set also features some minor improvements to the original sculpts, such as improved hip-ratchets for Convoy for increased stability. He also had the slightly modified pegs that Legends Class Rodimus (or Blackjack, Runabout, and Runamuck) can securely attach to, which was previously used for Battle Core Optimus Prime. The tampographed Autobot insignia on the roof/flip out head joint are now re-positioned to his side truck panels.

:Compared to the [[Optimus Prime (G1)/Generations toys#Combiner Wars|''Combiner Wars'' release]] of the mold, Convoy features additional paint operations on the thighs, truck bumpers, the details on the inner legs, the gestalt chest halves (which are now painted over due to being molded in grey plastic), and the gestalt torso's lower section. The stomach's deco is also minimized, and the silver paint operations on the lower legs are now replaced with gunmetal while the mute metallic blue is now shiny metallic. When it comes to unpaintable plastic; his knee joints and feet are blue while the majority of the shoulder joints are now red. In addition, his gestalt skirt flap is now molded in the same grey color, and the the leg panels and thighs are now molded in black, with the latter being painted in silver with some yellow details. As the thighs are painted, care must be taken while transforming him in both modes, as they're somewhat prone to paint scraping. To minimize the damage, the two rear halves must be opened first to transform the legs.

[[File:PrototypeTHB.jpg|thumb|upright=1.1|Not so Optimus Prime.]]

*The first prototype for Battle Convoy, the ''[[Diaclone]]'' originator of Optimus Prime, was vastly different from the final version, complete with an entirely different transformation and a car carrying trailer. The head lacked the faceplate.
*A later prototype/mock-up was much closer to the final product but still has some noticeable differences, such as a head with much larger antennae, longer smokestacks and a front grille section that includes the rectangular section that would sport the "Freightliner" logo on the real-life truck (on the final toy, the rectangular section is part of the hinged upper section that includes the windows). It would have also been possible to attach the [[ion blaster]] to either of his shoulders.<ref name="diaclonecatalogs">[https://web.archive.org/web/20151017201739/http://1501bc.com/pretf/pictures/tfdiac6b.jpg Diaclone catalog scans] at 1501bc.com.</ref>
*The toy that would ultimately end up as the original Optimus Prime toy was originally released in August [[1983]] as No.17 Battle Convoy from Takara's Diaclone Car Robo toyline in Japan. In [[1984]], [[Joustra]] released their own version (still with ''Diaclone'' sticker on the trailer) as part of their Diaclone line in Europe, either simply called ''Truck'' (according to the pack-in catalog) or ''Diaclone'' (in the pack-in comic). It's possible that [[GiG]] also released a version called ''Camion Convoy'' as part of their ''[[Trasformer]]'' line in Italy, but to this day no packaged sample has surfaced.

===The many releases of Optimus Prime===
[[File:SeveralG1Convoy.jpg|upright=1.1|thumb|Too much Prime on my hands.]]
Over the years, the [[#The_Transformers|original Optimus Prime]] has been repackaged and reissued multiple times:

*In the US and Canada, limited edition promotional versions were available sporting Pepsi stickers; the Canadian version has large Pepsi stickers that cover the entire trailer, while the US version only has small Pepsi stickers that partially obscure the lines running across the trailer;
*In addition to the standard Japanese 01 Convoy release, Takara also released the toy as part of the [[#VSX|VSX Convoy vs. Megatron]] two-pack in [[1985]];
*Takara released a variant sporting clear blue windows and as part of the "[[#goodbye|Good Bye Convoy]]" set (packaged with [[Red Alert (G1)#Toys|Alert/Red Alert]] and [[Mirage (G1)#Toys|Ligier/Mirage]]) in [[1986]];
*Hasbro's subsidiary [[Milton Bradley]] (MB) released the toy in Europe in late 1985, following a slight delay due to licensing issues;<ref name="mbtfs">[http://20thcenturytoycollector.com/mb-transformers-part-5/ "The Jetfire vs Optimus Prime mixup"] at 20th Century Toy Collector</ref> there are no less than ''three'' variants of MB-packaged Optimus Prime, one of them manufactured by Takara and sporting blue feet, the other two manufactured by [[Joustra]] as part of a deal with Hasbro/MB, one of them with blue and the other one with red feet;<ref name="3mb">[http://20thcenturytoycollector.com/the-three-mb-optimus-primes/ "The Three MB Optimus Primes"] at 20th Century Toy Collector</ref>
*After Hasbro's European division had changed the packaging from "MB" to "Hasbro", the toy continued to be available in 1986, including more of the Joustra-manufactured red and blue feeted versions, which were apparently also available in the UK in English-only packaging;<ref name="3mb"/>
*[[GiG]] released the toy as ''Commander'' as part of their ''Transformers'' line in Italy in 1985, including an all-plastic variant in 1986;
*[[IGA]] released their version in Mexico in 1985; unsold stock was later imported to a plethora of European countries, including the UK, with Optimus Prime having the yellow paint scraped off his eyes and then having them painted over in red;
*Hasbro reissued the "Original Autobot Leader" toy as part of their European ''[[Classics (Europe)|Classics]]'' line of reissues in [[1991]];
*Hasbro released a [[#Generation_2|redecoed version with additional accessories]] as part of their [[Transformers: Generation 2 (toyline)|''Generation 2'' line]] in [[1993]];
*Takara reissued the original toy in its original 1985 Japanese packaging in [[2000]], with an all-black recolor being available from assorted Japanese conventions and another variant with gold instead of silver parts, stickers, and paint as a [[Lucky Draw figure|lucky draw]] prize;
*Takara reissued the toy again as ''New Year Special'' version in January 2002, sporting clear blue windows (similar to Good Bye Convoy) and featuring additional accessories such as a Matrix necklace and a [[Show-accuracy|show accurate]] recolor of the Action Master Optimus Prime figure;
*Hasbro reissued the toy in the US and the UK as part of their ''[[The Transformers: Generation One Commemorative Series|Generation One Commemorative Series]]'' line of reissues in [[2002]], sporting shortened down smokestacks [[for safety reasons]];
*Takara reissued the toy once again in [[2003]], as part of their ''[[The Transformers Collection]]'' line of reissues, numbered 00 and featuring additional accessories such as an energon axe;
*Takara released a recolored version featuring a new trailer in December [[2005]], called ''[[Pepsi Convoy]]''.
*Hasbro released their own version of Pepsi Convoy, named "[[#PepsiPrime|Pepsi Optimus Prime]]", as a [[Hasbro Toy Shop]] exclusive in [[2007]], featuring the familiar [[For safety reasons|safety]]-shortened smokestacks of the Commemorative Series reissue.
*In August 2007 TakaraTomy yet again did a rerelease similar to the 2000 Convoy rerelease, this time as part of the "[[Transformers Encore]]" line. This version has a new rifle with a longer handle so Optimus can finally hold it straight.
*TakaraTomy released [http://seibertron.com/advertisement.php?id=8 "Convoy iPod Docking Bay with Speakers"] in September 2007. It is an iPod speaker/dock in the shape of a truck, featuring an all-white version of Convoy with a new head sculpt reminiscent of Masterpiece Convoy as the cab, and a trailer housing a pair of speakers and a docking point for an iPod.
*In March [[2008]], TakaraTomy released a G1-colored version of the iPod Convoy set.
*Hasbro released the ''25th Anniversary'' gift set edition detailed above in 2008, as part of the 2008 ''Universe'' line, once again with [[For safety reasons|shortened smokestacks]].
*TakaraTomy released another reissue based on the ''Encore'' version as part of their ''[[Transformers Chronicle|Chronicle]]'' line in 2011, lacking the original Generation 1 trailer. Instead, the ''Chronicle'' version was available in a two-pack with ''[[Transformers: Dark of the Moon (toyline)|Dark of the Moon]]'' Deluxe Class [[Optimus Prime (Movie)/toys#Chronicle|Optimus Prime]] and a new trailer that could be used by both Optimuses, thanks to a retooled trailer hitch on the Generation 1 Optimus Prime figure.
*In 2012, Hasbro reissued Optimus Prime again for their Asian markets, this time mixing the 25th Anniversary version of the toy itself with the older ''Commemorative Series'' packaging.<ref name="25thcomm">[http://www.cybertron.ca/boards/showthread.php?t=44388 "Bad news RE: new Commemorative Prime"] at Cybertron.ca.</ref>
*In 2019, Optimus was rereleased once again, this time without his trailer and with his original long smokestacks (something he hasn't had in America since Generation 2), in Hasbro's Vintage G1 line of reissues exclusive to Walmart stores in US and Canada.

===Powermaster Optimus Prime design history===
[[File:EarlyPMPrime1.jpg|upright=1.2|thumb|Overcompensating.]]
[[Powermaster]] Optimus Prime, being the grand toy rebirth of Optimus Prime post-movie, apparently received a lot of thought during the design process. Prime went through an inordinate number of design changes from concept to final with at least three very major revisions:

*The earliest version, as shown in the first patent application for the toy, was to have the Prime cab be a triplechanger, turning from truck cab to jet or robot.<ref>[http://worldwide.espacenet.com/publicationDetails/biblio?DB=EPODOC&II=0&ND=3&adjacent=true&locale=en_EP&FT=D&date=19880604&CC=JP&NR=S63132686A&KC=A Patent #JP63-132686]</ref> The nosecone of the jet and robot legs were released by the Powermaster lock in the same fashion as the legs in the final version. Optimus would have had winged arms in non-super [[robot mode]]. The super robot mode's head was also integrated into the trailer's hitch... and lacked a faceplate.

[[File:EarlyPMPrime2.jpg|thumb|upright=0.55|Blockhead.]]
*The second known version <ref>''[[Transformers Generations (guidebook)|Transformers Generations]]'', p22, p106</ref> ditched the triplechanging gimmick on the cab and simplified things a good bit. This Powermaster Prime has several distinct characteristics only seen in the second design, such as the wider "block head" and two faux smokestacks on top of either shoulder as opposed to one. Also, in a rather odd twist, this design features a black head and fists for both super and regular modes rather than the traditional blue. It also had yellow eyes in either mode a la the original Optimus Prime.

[[File:EarlyPMPrime3.jpg|thumb|upright=0.55|''Triple-Power-Headmaster Optimus Prime'' was just too damn long to put on the box.]]
*The third version <ref>''[[Transformers Generations (guidebook)|Transformers Generations]]'', p106</ref> would quite possibly have been the most gimmick loaded Transformer in the history of the line, simultaneously being a Powermaster, [[Headmaster (technology)|Headmaster]], and [[Triple Changer]]. The Headmaster also would have been a Triple Changer, turning into a sort of armored four-wheeled rover (Roller II?) and robot as well as a rather silly looking Optimus Prime head with four vertically aligned wheels jutting off the sides. It seems that when the extra Headmaster gimmick was scrapped, the super mode head remained separate rather than being reintegrated into the trailer hitch such as on the earliest design. Notably, the body of this design is extremely close to the final design.
*A fourth version is shown in the 1987-88 Transformers product catalog that has several minor differences from both Powermaster Prime and [[Ginrai (human)|God Ginrai]], such as having God Ginrai's sliding fists but in red, a completely different trailer hitch assembly partially based on the third design, an offset Autobot symbol in base mode, extended feet also based on third design, far more detailed super mode outer leg panels, completely different front bumper, and the first instance of single faux shoulder smokestacks rather than two. It is still unknown as to why Powermaster Prime has completely different arms from God Ginrai or all earlier concept versions.

Powermaster Prime's animation model as used in the commercials and as a character guide for the Marvel comics is a composite of the second and third designs. The body of the model is actually a straight tracing of the concept lineart for the third version (including its different rifles and twin faux shoulder stacks), with a slightly simplified drawing of the second version's head drawn on top.

===Miscellaneous Primes===
[[File:Early Star Convoy Planning Stage.jpg‎|thumb|upright=1.1|I am the prototype of the toy of the future!]]
*''Return of Convoy'' catalogues reveal the planning process behind Star Convoy's evolution from gimmick-rich illustration to prototype before reaching final production.
[[File:PMHeroTrace.jpg|left|thumb|upright=1.1|Stealing purses across the ages.]]
*The pose used for ''[[Transformers: Generation 2 (toyline)|Generation 2]]'' [[#HeroOptimusPrime|Hero Optimus Prime]]'s [[package art]] is rather blatantly swiped from [[The Transformers (toyline)|Generation 1]] [[Powermaster]] [[#PMOP|Optimus Prime]]'s package art.
*On a similar note, ''[[Machine Wars: Transformers|Machine Wars]]'' [[#Machine Wars|Optimus Prime]]'s package art is merely edited from ''Generation 2'' [[#LaserOptimusPrime|Laser Optimus Prime]]'s card art, keeping it mostly intact save for the removal of shoulder kibble and the addition of a non-windowed chestplate.
[[File:Optimus prime nokia 6820.JPG|left|thumb|125px|Wait...I'm sure this is from Finland. But why did [[Seymour Simmons|Simmons]] say...]]
*The Masterpiece Optimus Prime toy was featured in a print ad for [[Nokia]] {{w|Nokia 68xx series#Nokia 6820|6820}} phones in December 2004.<ref name="nokia">[http://www.seibertron.com/transformers/news/20th-anniversary-optimus-prime-featured-in-nokia-a/4374/ "20th Anniversary Optimus Prime Featured in Nokia Ad"]</ref> He is posed bent over to look at the phone and scratching his head. Pleasantly, ''most'' of the pose pictured is perfectly possible with an un-[[Customizing|kitbash]]ed, un-Photoshopped version of the toy. (The real toy can't bend forward at the waist like that, alas.)
*''[[Transformers: Classics|Classics]]'' [[#Classics (2006)|Optimus Prime]] was initially intended to be Deluxe-sized. An alleged list of the tentative ''Classics'' line-up<ref name="classicslineup">[http://www.tfw2005.com/transformers-news/classics-11/possible-transformers-classic-line-up-4336/ Rumor] about the ''Classics'' lineup that turned out to be spot on aside from Voyager [[Soundwave (G1)/toys|Soundwave]] and Deluxe Optimus Prime.</ref> included a Deluxe-sized Optimus Prime without a trailer and a version ''with'' a trailer at the Voyager [[size class|price point]]; however, it appears the decision was eventually made to upscale Optimus to Voyager size instead.<ref name="sage">[http://www.tfw2005.com/transformers-news/classics-11/cybertron-crosswise-redeco-and-transformers-classics-info-4683/ "Cybertron Crosswise Redeco and Transformers Classics Info"] (via [[Joe Kyde]]'s proxy "SAGE2764")</ref> Don Figueroa's [[control drawing]]s for the Deluxe version were leaked before the ''Classics'' line was even released at retail.<ref name="primecontrol">Leaked ''Classics'' Deluxe Optimus Prime control drawings: [http://www.tfw2005.com/transformers-news/classics-11/transformers-classics-optimus-prime-design-sketch-4691/ Vehicle mode], [http://www.tfw2005.com/transformers-news/classics-11/transformers-classics-optimus-prime-robot-mode-design-sketches-4692/ robot mode]</ref> A gray model [[prototype]] was later shown as part of an interview with [[TakaraTomy]]'s staff in ''[[Transformers Generations 2009#Volume 1|Transformers Generations 2009 vol. 1]]''.<ref name="ttinterview">[http://www.tfw2005.com/transformers-news/general-articles-25/translated-version-of-the-takara-tomy-transformers-henkei--classics-staff-interview-167073/ Translated TakaraTomy Henkei/Classics staff interview]</ref> It's unclear whether the trailer ever made it past the early planning stage before the size of the figure was changed.

:''Crosscut is an [[Autobot]] from the [[Generation 1 continuity family|Generation 1]] [[continuity family]].''

[[File:Crosscut-Auto-Card.jpg|upright=1.66|thumb|Tiberius Diaclonus]]
Ambassador to many worlds, '''Crosscut''' (クロスカット ''Kurosukatto'', also '''Cross-Cut''') is key to the Autobots' peaceful negotiations across known space. He is fluent in over 230 Earth languages and 6300 alien languages. Though he carries a lot of weaponry, it is all defensive in nature, meant to incapacitate rather than kill. In dire emergencies, he can transfer all his data and memories to his scooter-drone [[Clutch (G1)|Clutch]] so his knowledge won't be lost even if he falls to the [[Decepticon]]s.<ref>''Collector's Edition'' Crosscut bio</ref>

[[Road Rage (G1)|Road Rage]] came to Crosscut's rescue when the ambassador was in a dangerous situation on a colony planet; he was impressed enough to invite her to be his bodyguard. {{Storylink|Road Rage (G1)#Masterpiece|''Masterpiece'' Road Rage bio}}

====''Legends'' comic====
In the late 1980s, Crosscut was part of a team that attempted to protect the [[Transform Super Cog]] from being stolen by the [[Decepticon]]s, but the [[Battlecharger]]s were able to rev past Crosscut and a few others into the ''[[Ark (G1)|Ark]]''. {{Storylink|Slugslinger's Ambition}}

While on [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]], Crosscut was secretly commanded by [[Optimus Prime (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Optimus Prime]] to come to [[Earth]] to undertake negotiations with [[human]]ity towards a formal alliance and building [[Autobot City (G1)|Autobot City]]. {{storylink|#Collector's Edition|''Collector's Edition'' Crosscut bio}}

====Controverse====
As an Autobot diplomat, Crosscut monitored the Galactic Justice Council's plans for the trial of [[Primacron]] in early [[2011]]. He was appalled at their choice of a [[Quintesson]] to act as judge. {{storylink|Controverse}}

Crosscut was the navigator of ''[[Sojourner's Passage]]'', one of several starships sent out by [[Hot Rod (G1)|Rodimus Prime]] in [[2005]] to explore the universe and establish recon points. He was especially interested in establishing first contact with undiscovered alien civilizations.

Weeks later, their ship was hit by an energy pulse fired from the planet [[Akalo|Archa Nine]], and Crosscut was killed when the ship subsequently crashed. {{storylink|Betrayal}}

Crosscut was a member of the [[Elite Guard]]'s [[Recon Team]], working with [[Rest-Q (G1)|Rest-Q]], [[Delta Seeker]], and their field leader [[Roadfire]]. A former ambassador for Cybertron to other planets, he used his translating skills to compensate for Rest-Q's hopelessly-incomprehensible dialogues.<ref>From a set of Elite Guard character descriptions on the Club forums.</ref> He was also a playwright of some note. [[Headcannon]] was a fan of his work. {{storylink|Source:Ask Vector Prime/Facebook#September 16, 2015|Ask Vector Prime, 16/09/2015}}

After the [[Stealth Team (G1)|Stealth Team]] was exposed to [[Nucleon (substance)|nucleon]], Crosscut interpreted for Rest-Q as he examined the radiation's effect on their super-structures. His upbeat delivery did little to cover the fact that Rest-Q had no idea when they would regain the ability to transform. {{storylink|A Team Effort}}

Crosscut was among the Elite Guardsmen seen defending their base from the traitorous [[Combaticon (G1)|Combaticon]]s. {{storylink|The Coming Storm: Part 5}} His corpse was hurled through a section of the Elite Guard headquarters by [[Bruticus (G1)|Bruticus]] just as the [[Strike Team]] arrived on the scene. {{storylink|The Coming Storm: Part 6}}

[[File:Swerve crosscut the dead are not enough.jpg|thumb|left|upright=0.85|Here's some diplomacy right in your face!!]]
Crosscut is a former [[Senate|Senator]] turned playwright. He was [[reproduction|forged]], possessed a Vitrious-Negative [[spark]] and developed a phobia of [[Nanocon]]s during the war. He became famous for being one of the few Senators to take a stand during the early days of the Decepticon uprising, and celebrated for having liberated [[Petrex]] "with wise words and a shovel". However, Crosscut preferred people to know him for his art over his wartime reputation and eventually produced a play entitled ''[[My Shovel, Your Face]]''. {{storylink|The Dead Are Not Enough: Dark Cybertron Chapter 7|The Dead Are Not Enough}} {{storylink|Twenty Plus One}}

After the war's official end, he joined the ''[[Lost Light]]'' and was seen drinking in [[Swerve's]] with [[Smokescreen (G1)|Smokescreen]] shortly after [[First Aid (G1)|First Aid]] and [[Ambulon]] joined the crew. {{storylink|No Guns, No Swords, No Briefcases}}

[[File:Blurr crosscut the becoming.jpg|thumb|"I think his name was... ''Choom''?"]]
While fighting the [[Ammonite]]s on [[Hydrophena]], he invited [[Swerve (G1)|Swerve]] (who he confused with [[Rung (G1)|Rung]]) to see one of his plays (if they both survived). {{storylink|The Dead Are Not Enough: Dark Cybertron Chapter 7|The Dead Are Not Enough}} Unfortunately, he had already forgotten Swerve's name a few hours later when asked by [[Blurr (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Blurr]]. Inside Swerve's bar. Named ''Swerve's''. {{storylink|The Becoming: Dark Cybertron Chapter 10| The Becoming}} When the Ammonites attacked Cybertron shortly afterwards, he joined in the fight there. {{storylink|Black Planet: Dark Cybertron Chapter 11|Black Planet}}

Some time later, he helped run Swerve's (fake) "Crewditions" {{storylink|World, Shut Your Mouth Part 1: Towards Peace|Towards Peace}} and took prospective new crewmembers [[Riptide (G1)|Riptide]], [[Nautica (G1)|Nautica]], [[Mirage (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Mirage]], and [[Nightbeat (G1)|Nightbeat]] on a tour of the ''Lost Light''. {{storylink|No Guns, No Swords, No Briefcases}} He also began working on an experimental one-act, single stage play about [[information creep]] (called, unimaginatively, ''[[Information Creep]]'') but didn't have time to write the play before he, and every other original crewmember of the ''Lost Light'', vanished. {{storylink|Twenty Plus One}}

On a quantum duplicate ''Lost Light'', Crosscut did indeed finish ''Information Creep'' and was performing it at Swerve's when the [[Decepticon Justice Division]] arrived to massacre everyone. {{storylink|slaughterhouse}} When the original ''Lost Light'' reappeared, Crosscut and the rest of the crew returned along with it. {{storylink|slaughterhouse Part 2: The Road Not Taken|The Road Not Taken}} Some time later, he was seen drinking in Swerve's once again. {{storylink|The Lopsided Triangle}}

[[File:HowBrightTheirFrailDeeds-LostLightmutiny.jpg|thumb|left|270px|For Crosscut is an honorable man; so are they all, all honorable men]]
Crosscut attended Megatron's classes on the [[Knights of Cybertron]]. However, at some point he was approached by [[Getaway]] and [[Atomizer]] and vouched that he would support them in the event of a mutiny against the former Decepticon and his supporters. When the time came, the mutineers stranded [[Megatron (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Megatron]], [[Hot Rod (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Rodimus]], Swerve, and the others on the [[Mortilus|Necrobot]]'s planet and Crosscut stood alongside Getaway as he took the ''Lost Light''. {{storylink|The Dying of the Light: (1) How Bright Their Frail Deeds|How Bright Their Frail Deeds}}

After accepting Getaway as their new captain, Crosscut and the crew were unwillingly subjected to mnemosurgery by [[Sunder (G1)|Sunder]]. Their memories were altered to believe Rodimus and the others left the ''Lost Light'' of their own accord, abandoning the rest of the crew. {{storylink|The Plotters' Club (Part 2): Filling in the Blanks|Filling in the Blanks}} Crosscut was socializing at [["Visages"]] when [[First Aid (G1)|First Aid]] and the [[Protectobot (G1)|Protectobot]]s caught up with the ''Lost Light''. He sincerely explained what he ''believed'' had happened in First Aid's absence, although the doctor noted irregularities in the story he was told. {{storylink|The Plotters' Club (Part 1): Full Circle|Full Circle}}

Getaway ultimately betrayed his crew, however. When they were trapped by the [[Phantom Fleet]] of the [[Adaptus|Grand Architect]], Getaway turned Crosscut and the rest of his crew over to the Architect's ally, [[Scorponok (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Scorponok]]. They were subjected to a [[Sparkeater (creature)|Sparkeater]] virus, making them shambling, zombie-like drones who were later unleashed on Rodimus when his people caught up with them. {{storylink|Crucible (Part 1): A Dance Before Dying|A Dance Before Dying}} Crosscut was eventually cured and attended the ''Lost Light'''s farewell party in Swerve's. {{storylink|How To Say Goodbye And Mean It: Part 2}}

He and [[Kudon]] tried to advance the possibility of allowing a [[Micromaster]] into the Assembly, prompting [[Halogen (G1)|Halogen]] and [[Sigil (BWU)|Sigil]] to look for another Decepticon member to counter progress. {{storylink|Identity Politics}} [[Eject (G1)|Eject]] thought unfavorably of Cross-Cut and his fellow assemblymen. {{storylink|Broken Windshields}}

When the [[Grand Uprising]] of the proto-races started going badly, it was Cross-Cut who suggested the Assembly rescind [[General Order 66]], allowing their [[Vehicon (BM)|Vehicon]] drones to cross over into [[Iacon (polity)|Iacon]] and protect the Assembly directly. He was talked out of it by Administrator [[Eject (G1)|Eject]], and withdrew his proposal. When [[Ratbat (G1)|Ratbat]] revisited the proposal, Cross-Cut voted against it, but the order was rescinded by the majority. Instead of being their salvation, the Vehicons turned on their masters and assimilated all the assemblybots present, including Cross-Cut. {{storylink|Derailment}}

Sadly the balance problem was also left unresolved, causing Crosscut to have a great deal of trouble standing up unless posed in a way that offsets the weight.

:In the United States and Hasbro's Asian markets, he came [[pack-in material|packed]] with the Hasbro exclusive cover variant of "[[The Dead Are Not Enough: Dark Cybertron Chapter 7]]", with its pages out of order (pages 1-4 are placed between pages 20 and 21). In Canada, the comic was not included.

:The original version of this sculpt was also used to make ''[[Transformers: Age of Extinction (toyline)|Age of Extinction]]'' [[Rollbar (AOE)#Toys|Rollbar]] and ''[[Transformers Timelines (toyline)|Timelines]]'' [[Burn Out (Diaclone)#Toys|Burn Out]].

==Notes==
[[File:G1Skids-instructions.jpg|thumb|This is not my beautiful skull!]]
* Crosscut's "new" head and coloration are based on one of the original pre-''Transformers'' ''[[Diaclone]]'' versions of the "Honda City R" mold. The original silver version was only available in a "double set" with a blue version of the "4WD Hi-Lux Wrecker" (pre-[[Hoist (G1)/toys|Hoist]]) that was ''also'' only available in that set. A red ''Diaclone'' version of the Honda City R was never ported over to ''Transformers'' but did eventually inspire the character [[Reboost]].
* Crosscut and Road Rage are notable for being the first additions to the Generation 1-era cast of characters after the original line ended since the short-lived ''[[Machine Wars: Transformers|Machine Wars]]'' series. This also started the general trend toward e-HOBBY releases being new characters rather than old characters in new colors.
* There is evidence that this version of the mold was the one originally intended to be released in the original [[The Transformers (toyline)|Generation 1 line]] rather than the "Honda City Turbo" model that would become Skids. The original Skids's instructions have the Crosscut mold's line-art, and in the [[The Transformers (Marvel comic)|Marvel UK comic]], artists [[Dan Reed]] and [[John Stokes]] drew Skids with Crosscut's head in several panels. It's possible the Turbo model was chosen because its face was more human-looking (to go along with the generally more humanized faces the characters were given in the cartoon), but this is merely speculation.
* The ''Diaclone'' figure also had a variant black deco in stock photography, but this version was ultimately not released.<ref>[https://twitter.com/_necronomitron_/status/1395127144468992000 Catalogue scan by Twitter user @_necronomitron_, 19 May 2021]</ref>

Airazor (BW)

{{disambigm|Airazor (disambiguation)|Wing Saber (disambiguation)}}
:''Airazor is a [[Maximal]] from the [[Beast Era]] portion of the [[Generation 1 continuity family|Generation 1]] [[continuity family]].''

[[File:Airazorbwcgi.jpg|upright=1.66|thumb|''Ladyfalcon'' just doesn't have the same ring.]]

Primarily used for recon and surveillance due to her aerial [[alternate mode]], '''Airazor''' (sometimes formerly '''Wing Saber''') is a great asset to the Maximal cause. She's calm and confident, but also adventurous and brave, with a healthy supply of dry humor. Her aerial skill in either mode, incredibly sharp eyesight and steady aim make her a dangerous opponent.

Due to the circumstances of her "birth", she sees [[Rhinox (BW)|Rhinox]] as something of an uncle-figure and [[Cheetor (BW)|Cheetor]] as the sibling she never had. She devotes most of her efforts, however, to taming the wild yet gentle [[Tigatron]]. She shares his love for the beautiful planet on which the Maximals are stranded, and it is on this planet where their destiny will be forever intertwined.

{{bigquote|She stoops to conquer!|Airazor|"[[Call of the Wild]]"}}

==Fiction==
===Toy bios===
Airazor was an "aerial reconnaissance expert" who could spot Predacon activity from 30,000 feet above. With her internal radar transmitters, Airazor could relay information to her Maximal comrades, including 3D "virtual reality maps" that pinpointed enemy locations. In terms of offense, she possessed [[cyberblade]]s and a [[photon rifle|photon cannon]]. However, her preferred method of attacking was slashing with her titanium-plated talons in beast mode. {{storylink|#Toys|Basic Class Airazor bio}}

With her [[Transmetal]] body after the [[quantum surge]], Airazor had become a warrior that inspired absolute fear in the Predacons, thanks to her deadly armor-ripping talons. Her post had been adjusted to sea reconnaissance, in light of her vehicle mode. {{storylink|#TM1|Transmetal Airazor Bio}}

After becoming a [[Transmetal|Metals]], Airazor's power surged! Airazor's dominion of the air became second to none, but the air warrior still preferred to avoid violence when possible. {{storylink|#TM1|Metals Airazor}}

===''Beast Wars'' cartoon continuity===

[[File:The Spark Airazor.jpg|left|upright=1.55|thumb|The Maximals' Yellow Ranger.]]

Her [[stasis pod]] damaged upon crashing to [[Earth]], Airazor was able to come online due to the genius of [[Rhinox (BW)|Rhinox]] and the bravery of [[Cheetor (BW)|Cheetor]]. Rhinox deftly operated the stasis pod's controls and Cheetor offered up his [[locking chip]] to repair it. Immediately out of the pod, she outmaneuvered and destroyed [[Terrorsaur (BW)|Terrorsaur]]. Her aerial [[beast mode]], at the time, made her the only Maximal other than [[Optimus Primal (BW)/Beast Wars cartoon continuity|Optimus]] who could fly. {{storylink|The Spark}}

[[File:Airazortigatrontrigger.jpg|upright=1.1|thumb|Hasbro's ''The Falcon and the Winter Soldier'']]

She and Tigatron started to team up more frequently, a prospect Airazor seemed to welcome, but Tigatron preferred to work alone. Their first big adventure together came when a flying island paradise was discovered. The island, however, was covered in booby-traps which were triggered by the use of energy weapons. Airazor rescued Tigatron when he was ambushed by Predacons on the island, but she was damaged badly. {{storylink|The Trigger, Part 1}} Tigatron carried her on his back, refusing to leave her behind, and the pair worked together to avoid and overcome the island's traps. The island was ultimately destroyed, much to the sadness and outrage of Tigatron, and he would have secluded himself from the other Maximals further if not for Airazor's concern. {{storylink|The Trigger, Part 2}}

Soon after, the Predacons beat Tigatron to another stasis pod, reprogramming it and unleashing [[Inferno (BW)|Inferno]]. Airazor and Tigatron took turns helping each other, but once again, Tigatron insisted that he work alone. Airazor commented that sometimes you can be too alone. She was right, because after he tracked down [[Tarantulas (BW)|Tarantulas]] and destroyed the stasis pod, Tigatron got shot up a lot. Nearing death, Tigatron was saved by the arrival of Airazor and Optimus Primal. {{storylink|Spider's Game}}

During a Predacon attack on the ''[[Axalon (BW)|Axalon]]'', Airazor saved Optimus from plunging to his doom, but was herself so badly damaged she had to spend several days in the [[CR chamber]]. She emerged to find that the other Maximals had succumbed to their beast instincts through having to stay in beast mode constantly, as a result of the Predacons stealing the ship's [[rectifier coil]]. While Tigatron helped the Maximals, Airazor was able to infiltrate the largely deserted Predacon base and retrieve the rectifier coil. {{storylink|Call of the Wild}}

[[File:BeforetheStorm Airazor dropping off Rattrap.jpg|thumb|left|upright=1.34|If you barf, you're walking home.]]
After the Maximals were expelled from their base by the Predacons, aided by a [[Starscream (G1)|Starscream]]-possessed [[Waspinator (BW)|Waspinator]], Airazor alerted Tigatron to the situation. The pair joined in a ploy to retake their base, which involved an assault on the ''[[Darksyde (BW)|Darksyde]]'' under Starscream's leadership. {{storylink|Possession}} Airazor was part of the reinforcements provided when [[Rattrap (BW)|Rattrap]] and [[Dinobot (BW)|Dinobot]] were trying to find a cure for the [[energon discharge virus]] Rhinox was afflicted with. For some reason she felt the need to pose provocatively by Optimus's leg as the Maximals appeared on the scene. {{storylink|The Low Road}}

After the realization that the aliens who seeded their planet with traps and energon were returning to destroy it, the Maximals and Predacons entered a truce. Optimus Primal used Airazor to try to sneak Rattrap into the Predacon base to find out what [[Megatron (BW)/Beast Wars cartoon continuity|Megatron]] was up to, but Megatron, of course, found them on his scanners and politely asked them to leave. Unbeknownst to Megatron, the ploy was a decoy for Tigatron's infiltration. {{storylink|Before the Storm}}

[[File:Airazoraftermath.jpg|upright=1.4|thumb]]
The aliens arrived and a new [[Bio-Dome|alien structure]] was built, trapping Airazor, who was tortured. Optimus Primal forced his way inside, with the help of the Predacons, and traded himself to the aliens for Airazor. Rattrap dragged her from the structure, only for them to find themselves at gunpoint — the truce was over. The pair were able to use the activation of the structure's "termination sequence" to deal with the Predacons, before fleeing with the escaping Optimus. {{storylink|Other Voices, Part 1}} As one of the planet's moons was revealed as an [[Planet Buster|alien weapon]], the Maximals retreated to their base. There, Airazor and Rattrap caught [[Blackarachnia (BW)|Blackarachnia]] working on a stasis pod in the ship's hold, and Optimus was able to use it to destroy the Planet Buster, though at the cost of his own life. {{storylink|Other Voices, Part 2}}

[[File:OtherVists1 Airazor in vines.jpg|thumb|left|280px]|Hey look it's someone's fetish.]]
Airazor and Tigatron escaped [[Transmetal]]ization by the [[quantum surge]]. They attempted to stop Blackarachnia escaping, but were both knocked offline by Megatron. {{storylink|Aftermath}} After repairs, the duo left together to find the rest of the missing stasis pods scattered across the planet. {{storylink|Coming of the Fuzors (Part 1)}} While on their search, the two Maximals discovered not only a remarkably beautiful valley, but a strange plant. As the two looked into each other's eyes and held hands in quiet celebration, the plant transformed into another [[Vok]] device, and as they clasped hands, declaring their love to exist beyond the throes of death, the two were absorbed and shot into space. Cheetor arrived, but was too late, and loudly protested the loss of two of his best friends. {{storylink|Other Visits (Part 1)}}

[[File:OtherVictories BirthofTigerhawk.jpg|upright=1.4|thumb|Know that I am [[Razorclaw (Universe)|Razorclaw]]! Well, part of him. From another universe. It's complicated.]]

Airazor and Tigatron were kept in a form of stasis until near the end of the [[Beast Wars (event)|Beast Wars]], when they were merged into the powerful being [[Tigerhawk]]. Tigerhawk returned to Earth as the emissary of the Vok to stop the deterioration that the Beast Wars were causing to the timestream, his first act being to destroy the [[Darksyde (BW)|Darksyde]], sending the Predacons scrambling. Tarantulas managed to capture Tigerhawk and removed the Vok's influence from his frame (and absorbed it into himself), letting Airazor and Tigatron's [[spark]]s inhabit Tigerhawk's body. Tigatron's voice was dominant, but Tigerhawk's personality and mannerisms were an amalgam of Tigatron and Airazor's. {{storylink|Other Victories}}

Shortly afterward, however, Tigerhawk was killed in a standoff with the ''[[Nemesis (G1)|Nemesis]]'' after Megatron retrieved it from the ocean floor. {{storylink|Nemesis Part 2}}

====3H comics====
[[File:Groundzero-airazorbeastmode.jpg|thumb|left|upright=1.1]]
Somewhere near the end of the first year of the Beast Wars, before the Planet Buster ignited the planet's energon, Airazor, Rhinox, and Cheetor overheard a battle between [[Fractyl]] and [[Packrat]]. Airazor ended up having to rescue Cheetor, who had darted off ahead of them and gotten blasted. After the battle was resolved, she and the other Maximals fled, pretending to be beaten by the timid Fractyl to increase his standing in Megatron's eyes. {{storylink|Ground Zero}}

[[File:TransmetalAirazor2.jpg|right|upright=0.85|thumb|WINGS UP WINGS DOWN WHO GIVES A CRAP]]
After the Beast Wars were over, [[Tarantulas (BW)|Tarantulas]], presumed destroyed, existed in a new, undead form that was fueled by his new Vok powers. The remaining Vok assembled warriors to end this threat, creating [[Primal Prime]] and giving new [[Transmetal]] bodies to the extant Sparks of Airazor and Tigatron. {{storylink|Primeval Dawn Part 1}} {{storylink|Primeval Dawn II}}

After awakening a stranded stasis pod containing [[Ramulus]], opening a second pod triggered an ambush by [[Spittor (BW)|Spittor]], [[Iguanus (BW)|Iguanus]], [[Razorclaw (BW)|Razorclaw]], and a reborn Transmetal 2 [[Ravage (G1)|Ravage]]. Airazor immediately saved Tigatron's life, knocking Spittor aside before Tigatron would have unwittingly come in contact with Spittor's body, covered entirely in [[cyber venom]]. This maneuver left her vulnerable to Ravage's gunfire, which knocked her out of the air. {{storylink|Primeval Dawn Part 2}}

The battle ended catastrophically, and Ramulus, Airazor, and Tigatron were forced to carry a critically-wounded Primal Prime back to the ''[[Ark (G1)|Ark]]'' after Tarantulas ripped the [[Matrix of Leadership]] from his chest. As Airazor and Tigatron conferred with the seemingly absent Vok, Airazor experienced great pains due to her battle wounds. But before she could explain, the ''Ark'' was under attack by Ravage and the Predacons. {{storylink|Primeval Dawn Part 3}}

{{note|Due to [[3H Productions]] loss of the convention license, "Primeval Dawn" was never completed. It is telling, however, that Airazor was not present in the subsequently-placed ''[[Transformers: The Wreckers|Wreckers]]'' storyline. "[[Wreckers: Finale Part II]]" even has Rattrap ask Tigatron where Airazor is now, but which Tigatron doesn't get to answer due to more pressing matters. In "[[Source:Ask Vector Prime/Sideways#July 6, 2015|Ask Sideways]]", [[Sideways (Armada)|Sideways]] claims that, as part of a long con, he saved her life by bonding her back into Tigatron.}}

====Razorclaw continuity====
In one splinter timeline of [[Primax 496.22 Alpha]], [[Silverbolt (Fuzor)|Silverbolt]]'s stasis pod landed far from the ''Axalon'', and without the aid of Silverbolt, Megatron slaughtered the Maximals. Left as the sole survivors, Tigatron and Airazor were then abducted by the Vok and then dispatched as Tigerhawk to end Megatron's machinations which threatened the Vok. Tigerhawk slew Megatron, but in the ensuing [[timestorm]] destroyed the universe anyway. Subsequently, [[Unicron]] abducted Tigerhawk to become one of his [[Minion of Unicron (Universe)|Minion]] generals. The renamed [[Razorclaw (Universe)|Razorclaw]] became one of Unicron's most feared Heralds; however, the noble influence of Tigatron and Airazor at times posed a problem for the evil Razorclaw. {{storylink|Abduction|Razorclaw's profile}} {{storylink|Ask Vector Prime#Facebook|Ask Vector Prime, 2015/08/07}}

====2006 IDW ''Beast Wars'' continuity====
[[File:Dawn-of-Predacus-Airazor-midbattle.jpg|thumb|250px]]
At the tail-end of the Great War, both [[Optimus Prime (G1)|Optimus Prime]] and [[Galvatron (G1)|Galvatron]] met their demise on the battlefield. In response, the [[Primal Council]] sought to broker peace negotiations with their enemies, enlisting Tigatron to this end. The 'bot who would one day call herself "Airazor" was one of the many soldiers tasked with guarding the Autobot peace officer as he headed into enemy camps on his mission.

Unfortunately, the first camp the group made contact with was headed by a renegade soldier going by the name "[[Megatron (BW)/Beast Wars cartoon continuity|Megatron]]". Rejecting the talk of peace outright, Megatron unleashed [[Predaking (G1)|Predaking]] onto his visitors, along with the other units under his command. "Airazor" was accosted by [[Waspinator (BW)|two]] [[Terrorsaur (BW)|fliers]], though she quickly defeated them both before rescuing Tigatron from Predaking. As the rest of the Autobots with them were slain, Tigatron argued with his rescuer over which one of them should head off to warn the Council of Megatron's incoming attack. Convincing him that she didn't need rescuing herself, and promising that she'd see him again someday, "Airazor" sent Tigatron on his way. But she stood little chance against Predaking by herself, and soon found herself in the giant's grip. Before Predaking could finish her off, [[transmatter]] started raining down on the battlefield, converting whoever it touched into a protoform. "Airazor" was one of the many affected by the transmatter, though her form was retrieved and safely stored within a stasis pod after hostilities had ended between Autobots and Decepticons. {{storylink|Dawn of the Predacus}}

As [[Magmatron]] surveyed the timestream, he witnessed several key moments in the Beast Wars. Among them was Airazor being helped up by a concerned Tigatron. {{storylink|The Gathering issue 1|The Gathering #1}}

After Tigerhawk's body was destroyed, the two sparks contained within split, regaining their individuality. The Vok then proceeded in bestowing upon Airazor a new Transmetal form utilizing a blank protoform. {{storylink|Transformers: Beast Wars Sourcebook|Beast Wars Sourcebook}}

====''Timelines''====
[[File:Airazorbwdawn.jpg|left|upright=1.1|thumb|Tiger, you just hit the jackpot.]]

Her name was Wing Saber. A routine reconnaissance mission went awry when Wing Saber was captured by the Predacon torturer, [[Steelgrave]]. Despite his array of fiendish devices and Bond-villain mentality, Wing Saber was able to elude Steelgrave and fight her way through his henchmen before retreating to her cloaked starship, the ''[[Chromia 10]]''. Although she escaped, Wing Saber bore the physical and mental scars from her encounter with Steelgrave for some time.

Later, she was assigned to rendezvous with a pair of Maximals named [[Crossblades (BW)|Crossblades]] and [[Stiletto (BW)|Stiletto]] for a new mission. In violation of the [[Pax Cybertronia]], a group of Predacons had been rampaging through the [[J'kozian sector]] and set up a troop manufacturing factory on the conquered world of [[Nibari]]. Holographically posing as barmaids, the trio inebriated most of Steelgrave's troops into stasis lock before proceeding into the factory. Their infiltration was cut short by a raid on the factory by the native Nibari population, led by [[Ritash]]. Wing Saber's group was forced to divert their mission in order to keep the organics from being completely slaughtered. They were actually doing well...at least, until the true leader of Steelgrave's Predacons made his presence known... '''[[Megatron (G1)|Megatron]]'''!

Wing Saber's crew evacuated with all due haste, taking Ritash of the Nibari with them. A reassessment of the situation was clearly called for. After a review of the history records, Wing Saber decided that the frequent quotations of "No Known Weaknesses" overlooked Megatron's infamous arrogance, and THAT was what they needed to exploit. The crew of the ''Chromia 10'' challenged Megatron to combat in full view of his subordinates, forcing him to agree in order to save face. During the ritualized combat, Crossblades noticed that the Mighty Megatron was nowhere near as invulnerable as history records indicated. Sensing a ruse, the Maximals concentrated their firepower and revealed "Megatron" was little more than an exo-suit run by his ex-lieutenant, [[Flamewar (G1)|Flamewar]]. With Flamewar revealed, and the drone troopers brought under the control of Ritash and his rebels, Nibari was well on its way to being freed.{{storylink|The Razor's Edge}}

[[File:Trazorsedge prologue.jpg|thumb|"I'm gonna deck you in the schnoz!"]]

Later, the Predacons who stole the [[Golden Disk (Voyager)|Golden Disk]] on Cybertron were being pursued by [[Tigatron|Unit 2]], who was granted clearance from the [[Maximal Defense Command Center]] to commandeer transport. Wing Saber was boarding the ''Chromia 10'', when Unit 2 approached and demanded use of it. Wing Saber at first refused, but suggested she was open to... persuasion. The call of adventure captured her interest, and instead of handing over the ''Chromia 10'' to Unit 2, she allowed him to hitch a ride, piloting it herself.

The ''Chromia 10'' intercepted the Predacons' ship, the ''[[Darksyde (BW)|Darksyde]]'', which was engaged in battle with the ''[[Axalon (BW)|Axalon]]'' and guarded by a [[Buzzsaw and Laserbeak's ship|mysterious third ship]]. During the ensuing firefight, the ''Chromia 10'' was badly damaged. [[Optimus Primal (BW)|Optimus Primal]] had Wing Saber and Unit 2's [[spark]]s remotely [[Spark core transfer|uploaded]] to [[blank]] [[protoform]]s in the Axalon's cargo hold, which saved their lives, but severely damaged their core mainframes. {{storylink|Dawn of Future's Past}}

Two weeks after Airazor was reborn on [[Earth]], she foiled a Predacon plot to launch an orbital platform despite Megatron's best efforts. {{storylink|The Razor's Edge}}

===''Beast Wars Metals'' manga===
[[File:AirazorBWMetalsManga01.jpg|upright=1.1|thumb|The manga kinda made it pret-ty dang clear where it stood on what gender Airazor should be.]]

Following the [[Quantum surge]], Airazor became a [[Transmetal]]. However, she was separated from the rest of the [[Maximal]]s and was locked outside of their base during [[Quickstrike (BW)|Quickstrike]]'s counterattack. As she flew in, [[Sentinel (BW)|Sentinel]]'s defenses began to fire at her. [[Rhinox (BW)|Rhinox]] attempted to shut Sentinel down, only to be stopped by [[Rattrap (BW)|Rattrap]], who warned him that Sentinel was the only thing protecting them from Quickstrike's [[Cobra Corps]] and [[Scorpion Corps]]. Rhinox brushed him aside and shut Sentinel down, anyway. Airazor, who had been shot by Sentinel, swooped in for a crash-landing. Rattrap, feeling somewhat guilty, dove to soften her landing. Not long after this, [[Blackarachnia (BW)|Blackarachnia]] breached their defenses and took out both Rattrap and Airazor without effort. Rhinox saved her some time and appeared to shoot himself in the head. Feeling her job was done, Blackarachnia left as Quickstrike destroyed their base.

From a small section of the base that had been protected by a forcefield, Airazor aided Rattrap and Rhinox in pulling [[Optimus Primal (BW)|Optimus Primal]]'s [[spark]] from [[unspace|transwarp space]]. As Rhinox brought his spark out from oblivion, Rattrap funneled it through a ray device while Airazor positioned a reflective dish. Primal's spark bounced off the dish and connected with his body (which was being held by [[Megatron (BW)|Megatron]] at his base, the ''[[Hindenburg]]''), resurrecting him as a Transmetal. Airazor, still injured from before, began to plummet to the ground. Primal rescued her, destroyed Megatron's drone army, and carried her off on his flying surfboard. Recovering, Airazor began to wonder where her "[[Tigatron]]-sama" was. {{storylink|Beast Wars Metals issue 1|Beast Wars Metals #1}}

Airazor next accompanied Rattrap and Optimus in investigating the remains of the ''Axalon''. She was attacked by [[Rampage (BW)|Rampage]], but escaped. Following Primal's orders, she and Rattrap used the ''Axalon''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s weapons to ignite undersea volcanoes that blasted Rampage into the sky. {{storylink|Beast Wars Metals issue 2|Beast Wars Metals #2}}

Later, she decided to search for Tigatron on her own. {{storylink|Beast Wars Metals issue 3|Beast Wars Metals #3}} She soon found him, but his mind had been taken over by Tarantulas. She linked her mind with Tigatron's and, after defeating Tarantulas in cyberspace, was able to free Tigatron's consciousness. Unfortunately, she wasn't quite fast enough, and Tigatron's mind-controlled body delivered a fatal blow that killed her. Seeing what he'd done, Tigatron held her in his arms and wept with grief. {{storylink|Beast Wars Metals issue 4|Beast Wars Metals #4}}

Tigatron eventually committed ritual suicide over what he'd done, only to be revived by the energies of the sparks released by the obliterated Rampage. Airazor was also among the revived, but as a mindless zombie. {{storylink|Beast Wars Metals issue 5|Beast Wars Metals #5}} She did battle with Tigatron, who did not want to fight the robot he loved. With no other option, Tigatron gave the evil Airazor one of his katana and knelt down. As the zombie-Airazor struck him with the [[sword]], Airazor's spark entered Tigatron's body. In cyberspace, the two embraced and vowed never to be apart again. As their sparks merged, they became [[Tigerhawk]]. {{storylink|Beast Wars Metals issue 6|Beast Wars Metals #6}}

===''Transformers Legends'' anthology===
When [[human]] archaeologists uncovered a cave filled with primitive language, [[Mini-Con]] [[Laserbeak (Armada)|Laserbeak]] translated it for them. The markings told of a time when the Maximals and Predacons crash-landed on prehistoric Earth, though the stranded Transformers were seen by the protohumans as gods. When one of the archeologists, [[Jessica Theist]], later touched one of the markings, she was bestowed a vision of the Maximals' and Predacons' battles. Among them, she noted a "falcon." {{storylink|Fire in the Dark}}

===''TransTech''===
[[File:Airazorwhitheredhope.jpg|thumb|How Robin would have looked in Batman Beyond...]]

Airazor, sporting a purely Cybertronian form, became a resident of [[Axiom Nexus]] at an unknown point in time and the timelines. She joined the offworlders' [[Freelance Police Legion]] and also forged ties with their parallel organization, the [[Axiom Nexus Security Administration]] run by the planet's native Cybertronians, the [[Transcendent Technomorph]]s. Airazor eventually received authorization as an inspector in the Security Administration, giving her the rare (if not ''unique'') status as an officer for BOTH police forces in Axiom Nexus. Despite her official status, Airazor still enjoyed her vices, and was a frequent customer of the [[Widow's Cafe Cybertronian]] at the edge of the [[Heap]].

Airazor was involved in the first detaining of [[Jackpot (G1)|Jackpot]] and [[Hubcap (G1)|Hubcap]], after the assassination of [[Gutcruncher (G1)|Gutcruncher]] sent Axiom Nexus into chaos. She and [[Stungun (TransTech)|Stungun]] stood guard over the duo while awaiting [[Cheetor (TransTech)|Commander Cheetor]]'s arrival. As is often the case with femmes, she had absolutely no tolerance for Jackpot's sweet-talk. Upon his arrival, Cheetor dismissed Airazor to keep an eye on three "[[Transcendent|units of interest]]" who had recently come through Processing Central. He casually suggested she recruit some Freelancers as well to keep the surveillance less official, since it was technically out of their jurisdiction. Her departure served a double purpose, leaving a viable exit for the lowtech Autobots to flee and draw out the ''real'' assassin for the Security Administration. Once [[Black Shadow (G1)|Black Shadow]] and his shell were deactivated, Airazor swooped in and took Jackpot into custody again immediately. Despite his claims of having found a real connection, she was thrilled when Commander Cheetor expedited his deportation to [[Primax 207.0 Epsilon|a universe]] similar to his home universe. {{storylink|Gone Too Far}}

Shortly after her promotion to Inspector Airazor, the Maximal had occasion to drop in on her old friend [[Crystal Widow]] at the Widow's Cafe. It was hardly a social call, however, as Security Administration had been requisitioned by [[Demolishor (TransTech)|General Demolishor]] of the [[Military Police]] to conduct a serious investigation into some courier murders and the theft of unauthorized TransTech technology. One of Crystal Widow's regulars, [[Escargon]], had been pegged for the matter. Airazor tried to execute a quiet arrest, but General Demolishor's attention span and flair for the dramatic turned it into a decidedly UNquiet raid of the premises. Demolishor also executed Escargon on the spot while Airazor was attempting to gain control of the suspect.

In his zeal, however, General Demolishor hadn't thought to check if Escargon had the stolen property before shooting him. Sure enough, a thorough search by Inspector Airazor appeared to turn up no traces of the property on his person. Dejected, General Demolishor turned his frustrations on the clientele, particular several "mechanoids of interest" called [[G1 GoBots|GoBots]] who had arrived around the same time as Escargon. With some fast legalese, Airazor managed to talk Demolishor out of doing further damage to the bar or Crystal Widow's customers. After the good general departed, Airazor explained the seriousness of the situation — Escargon had stolen a set of [[transit pass]]es, official letters for TransTech black ops work that allowed unmolested access to any transwarp platform facility. Literally a "Get Out of Axiom Nexus Free" Card.

General Demolishor was not so easily deterred, though, and soon wound up battling Crystal Widow and the GoBots in the [[Heap]] until Airazor and Commander Cheetor arrived with the Security Administration. The general was quickly deflated when Cheetor told him he had informed [[Megatron (TransTech)|Commander Megatron]] personally about the issuance of these ''unauthorized'' transit passes, and the fact that Demolishor had lost them. Because the Heap was outside of Security Administration jurisdiction, the collar officially went to Airazor as a representative of the Freelance Police Legion.

As Demolishor was being led away, Commander Cheetor requested a private word with Inspector Airazor. In no uncertain terms, he ''very loudly'' did not say he knew she had swiped the passes while frisking Escargon, and did not tell her to make sure the passes were handed over to the GoBots. Reluctantly, Airazor did as she was not ordered to do and gave up her meal tickets. {{storylink|Withered Hope}}

[[File:Legends Manga Xmas Airazor.jpg|thumb|left|150px|We're sorry about everything on the right.]]

Airazor and [[Nightscream (BM)|Nightscream]] were hired by Optimus Primal to work as office ladies at the [[Axalon Trading Company]]. Their tight skirts and overall cuteness mesmerized Rattrap... at least until Rhinox reminded him that they had no women on the payroll. {{storylink|Legends Vol. 4#The Gender Gap|The Gender Gap}} Later, Optimus Primal and [[Lio Convoy]] swooned over Airazor's cuteness as he fetched them tea for their meeting. Rattrap and Rhinox merely continued to curse the fact that Airazor was a man. {{storylink|Legends Vol. 5#The Gender Gap Part 2|The Gender Gap Part 2}} Hoping to get to the bottom of Airazor and Nightscream's genders, Rattrap and Rhinox proceeded to follow them to see which bathroom they'd use. Much to their confusion, they learned that their building had no ladies' room but an ''[[w:otokonoko|otokonoko]]'' room. {{storylink|Legends Vol. 9#The Bathroom Gap|The Bathroom Gap}}

For [[Christmas]], Airazor joined [[T-AI|Ai]] in donning skimpy Santa outfits and handed out toys to all the good little Transformers. {{storylink|Merry X'mas!!}} At another point, old man Rhinox's nostalgia became so powerful he was able to will the '80s back into existence, retrograding all modern technology into clumsy '80s counterparts. In the madness, Airazor's computer turned into a cruddy micro-computer that couldn't even connect to the [[Internet]]. {{storylink|Legends Comic: Bonus Edition Vol. 3|Bonus Edition Vol. 3}}

At work, Rattrap found himself emasculated at every turn, even by Airazor, who was bigger and stronger than he was. This led Rattrap to seek comfort in a dream sequence involving [[Swerve (G1)|Swerve]] and [[Tailgate (G1)|Tailgate]]. {{storylink|Legends Comic: Bonus Edition Vol. 8|Bonus Edition Vol. 8}}

When the amnesiac [[Windblade (G1)|Windblade]] used her charms to squat at [[Tigatron]]'s home, Airazor took issue with it, and the three ended up in a bed together, with Airazor trying to push Windblade away from Tigatron. {{storylink|Windblade Sequel}}

Following the destruction of their old office because of [[Metroplex (G1)|Metroplex]], the Axalon employees took it in stride and made Metroplex's city mode their new office. Airazor and Cheetor got scared when their [[Alpha Trion (G1)|mysterious janitor]] claimed to be from "the other world", assuming he meant the world of the dead. {{storylink|LG14 Ultra Magnus Prologue#The Mysterious Knowledgeable Grandpa Chapter|The Mysterious Knowledgeable Grandpa Chapter}}

Airazor was dressed up as a nurse and ready to go to a [[Halloween]] party with Tigatron and Windblade when they were interrupted by the trick-or-treating [[Blackarachnia (BW)|Blackarachnia]], [[Slipstream (Animated)|Slipstream]], and [[Nightbird (G1)|Nightbird Shadow]]. {{storylink|Legends Comic: Bonus Edition Vol. 17|Bonus Edition Vol. 17}}

Airazor also worked at a "little brother cafe" and was there when the manager, [[Starscream (BW)|Starscream]], explained to another worker, who was [[Starscream (Armada)/Cartoon continuity|another Starscream]], just what kind of cafe it was. While thinking back to the good times she'd had in the Legends Universe, Windblade remembered a time she'd hand-fed Tigatron at the cafe, something Airazor hadn't liked at all. {{storylink|LG-18 Armada Starscream Super Mode Prologue}} Following the hiring of the Autobot [[Headmaster (technology)|Headmaster]] from another dimension, Airazor told [[Chromedome (G1)|Chromedome]] that he still had to answer calls from customers despite being trapped in [[Butla]] at the time. {{storylink|Legends Comic: Bonus Edition Vol. 22|Bonus Edition Vol. 22}}

Airazor was among the coworkers bothered by Chromedome flying around the office on Moguru, {{storylink|Legends Comic: Bonus Edition Vol. 32|Bonus Edition Vol. 32}} and was seen on the sidewalks of [[Akihabara]] after it was rebuilt as Neo Akihabara City. {{storylink|Targetmaster Chapter Prologue}} When [[White Leo]] turned the people of the Legends World into [[Beastformer]]s to recruit them into his army, Airazor ended up with some [[#TM1|familiar armor]] and the name "Lucky Razor". {{storylink|Legends Comic: Bonus Edition Vol. 51|Bonus Edition Vol. 51}}

===2005 IDW continuity===
{{first|[[All That Remains|''The Transformers: Windblade'' vol. 2 #3]]}}

[[File:IDWAirazorcharactermodel.jpg|thumb|right|175px]]

Airazor was a native of the planet [[Jungle Planet (colony)|Eukaris]], and was born from the [[hot spot (phenomenon)|hot spot]] inside the [[Titan (group)|Titan]] [[Chela]]. She abandoned [[Cloud Walkers|her tribe]] long ago so that she could be with her love Tigatron.

[[File:CombinerWars5-Eukaris.jpg|thumb|left|300px]]

When battling [[combiner]]s from [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]] briefly touched upon the planet, Airazor and Tigatron witnessed [[Optimus Maximus (G1)|Optimus Maximus]] battling against [[Devastator (G1)|Devastator]]. {{storylink|Windblade vol. 2 issue 6|Windblade vol. 2 #6}} They later investigated the huge footprints the combiners left behind. Tigatron wanted to report their discovery to the others, while Airazor disagreed. {{storylink|All That Remains}} They eventually sought out the advice of the seer Blackarachnia, who foresaw the reappearance of true Cybertronians on their planet. A week later, Airazor was present when the leaders of Eukaris's tribes convened outside the space bridge, although Dinobot didn't take kindly to the "tribe of two." The tension was quickly defused when Rattrap sneaked through the space bridge and onto the planet, only to receive a less-than-warm welcome from Dinobot.

A month later, Airazor was present when the first real representatives from Cybertron arrived - [[Windblade (G1)|Windblade]] and Starscream. Before negotiations could get underway, Chela awoke and burst from the ground, intending to destroy all Cybertronian intruders. After Chela was killed by Starscream, the citizens of Eukaris agreed to join the nascent [[Council of Worlds]]. Blackarachnia appointed Tigatron and Airazor as delegates to Cybertron, believing that their independence from Eukaris's competing tribes would make them impartial diplomats. {{storylink|Windblade vol. 2 issue 6|Windblade vol. 2 #6}} Upon emigrating to Cybertron, Airazor was amazed to find that she and Tigatron were being welcomed in spite of their romance, a feature she felt could potentially attract more Eukarians. {{storylink|The Chosen One}}

Approximately two weeks later, Airazor was present for the ceremony inducting [[Vigilem|Carcer]] delegates [[Obsidian (BM)|Obsidian]] and [[Strika (BM)|Strika]] into the Council of Worlds. {{storylink|The Will of the Few}} She and Tigatron began operating regularly on Cybertron, interacting with the local citizens and the other colonists. {{storylink|Choose Me}}

After [[Optimus Prime (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Optimus Prime]] announced his intent to annex [[Earth]] into the Council of Worlds, Airazor attended the first council meeting discussing this sudden change of events. {{storylink|New Worlds Order}} In-between Council meetings, the two Eukariens continued adjusting to life on Cybertron, quietly hoping that one day the growing number of immigrants could expand beyond the borders of Iacon. When the Council re-convened to discuss a string of mysterious [[Mnemosurgery|mnemosurgical]] assaults and the growing distrust of the [[Badgeless]], the two Eukarian delegates were in attendance. The Committee moved to have [[Ironhide (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Ironhide]] investigate the crime spree. {{storylink|07:00:00}}

[[File:ApplicableSkills-fangsandfur.jpg|thumb|left|300px]]

Things turned sour following the death of [[Drunkatron|an inebriated Decepticon]] which most chalked up to police brutality. Airazor and Obsidian observed an angry mob advancing on Starscream's office, as the two commiserated over their dismay with the fractured Cybertron. Shortly afterwards, Airazor attended the emergency meeting to try and sort out what could be done, a meeting that ended with Ironhide becoming the new head of Cybertronian security. {{storylink|Applicable Skills}} Airazor later attended a meeting where Ironhide reported on the progress of the new recruits. {{storylink|Things We Said We'd Never Do}} When [[Bruticus (G1)|Bruticus]] attacked Iacon, Airazor and the other Council delegates were temporarily evacuated. {{storylink|The Line Between Us}}

The Council later met with Optimus to hear his side of the story. Although Prime insisted that his intentions were pure, its members unanimously voted against allowing Earth a seat on the council. {{storylink|All Hail Optimus Part 3: The Medium and the Message|The Medium and the Message}} When Optimus raised a holy [[Metrotitan (G1)|Titan]] from the ground, however, public opinion began to shift back towards Optimus, and the Council began re-considering their ruling. {{storylink|All Hail Optimus Part 6: No Fair Fights|No Fair Fights}}

[[File:DesperateTimes-anythingforyou.jpg|thumb|right|250px|And the man shall ride a falcon.]]

Months later, [[Vigilem|Carcer]] detected a fleet of [[zombie]] Titans rapidly approaching Cybertron and intent on scouring the planet clean. The Council attended an emergency meeting to discuss the threat, and wound up preparing for an all-out war against the army. The Titans soon made planetfall; Airazor and Tigatron fought together on the front lines and used their [[beast mode]]s to tear through enemy armor. {{storylink|Ping}} When it became clear that they couldn't win, the two retreated back to the Council [[Spire]] to discuss a last-ditch moves. As a result, both Airazor and Tigatron joined Windblade's strike team, aiming to invade Carcer and seize control of the Titan from its reluctant leader [[Elita One (G1)|Elita One]]. {{storylink|Desperate Times}}

Airazor stood by Starscream as the strike teams attacked making odd faces at the Chancellor's odd habit of [[Bumblebee (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|seemingly talking to himself]]. {{storylink|Desperate Measures (Till All Are One)|Desperate Measures}} After Windblade and Carcer had triumphed, she joined Starscream and [[Knock Out (G1)|Knock Out]] in cheering. {{storylink|Rubicon}} It transpired however that "Carcer" was in fact, Vigilem, the Titan of [[Liege Maximo]] who had managed to free his master before he died. The Council was informed of the Prime's inevitable return but only after half of them had already voted to keep it secret and forced the other half to do the same, much to Airazor's discomfort. {{storylink|The Chosen One}}

When the crisis had passed, the Council reconvened to meet with Optimus Prime as the Autobot leader discussed sharing Transformer technology with the [[Junkion (species)|Junkion]]s, who had recently arrived on Earth. Starscream shot down the proposal; as Earth was not yet a member of the Council, it would be a violation of the [[Tyrest Accord]]. {{storylink|New Cybertron Part 3: Behind My Bleeding Back|Behind My Bleeding Back}}

Airazor was present during Earth's induction ceremony into the [[Council of Worlds]] when [[M.A.S.K.]] and [[G.I. Joe (team)|G.I. Joe]] was brought before the Council where Elita One ordered them executed. When Knock Out supported the notion owing to the looming threat of Liege Maximo and the short [[human]] lifespan, Airazor protested owing to the fact that, regardless of lifespan, the humans were still living creatures. {{storylink|First Strike issue 4|First Strike #4}}

Following the invasion, Windblade was due to retake her position on the Council only to learn that Liege Maximo's freedom was still being kept under wraps prompting her to inform Circuit and Longtooth of it which resulted in public elections. After the Camien had announced her intent to run for office, Airazor visited Windblade in [[Maccadam's Old Oil House]] where she extolled the values of Cybertron's acceptance of 'bots from all walks of life and how that feature could attract more Eukarians (assuming of course Iacon could last five minutes without being half destroyed). She and Tigatron later attended the electoral debates and took part in Windblade's subsequent victory party. {{storylink|The Chosen One}}

The Council later assembled to receive an [[Ore-13]] from Optimus Prime before [[Shockwave (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Onyx Prime]] and [[Liege Maximo]] made a dramatic return aboard the [[Nemesis (BW)|''Nemesis'']]. {{storylink|The Falling, Chapter 1: Surfeit of Primes|Surfeit of Primes}} Joined by [[Alpha Trion (G1)|Alpha Trion]], the Council granted the Primes an audience. After an explosion ripped through the [[Spire]], Airazor helped up Tigatron only to learn Alpha Trion had been killed by the blast. {{storylink|The Falling, Chapter 2: Another Mine|Another Mine}} "Onyx Prime's" machinations had successfully sowed chaos across Cybertron, leaving the Council of Worlds paralyzed and unable to act for the duration of the crisis, and by the time that "Onyx" had been unmasked as a time-travelling Shockwave and arrested, the Council was too late to stop the penultimate stage in Shockwave's plan from falling into place: [[Unicron/Generation 1|Unicron]], who began a genocidal rampage across the galaxy. Shortly after the planet-eater destroyed Eukaris, Airazor joined the other members of the Council of Worlds in an emergency meeting to discuss the situation. {{storylink|Stranger Eons}}

When Unicron then attacked and destroyed Cybertron, Airazor and Tigatron were among the many refugees who were safely teleported to [[Earth]] by the [[Visionaries]], regrouping at [[Victoria Falls]]. {{storylink|A Sunrise Dark}}

[[File:Derailment Parliament.jpg|250px|thumb|left]]

Airazor of [[Nuon City|Nuon]] was a champion of the Games who eventually came to sit on the [[Maximal High Council]]. She sat on the Council when the [[Maximal Nation]] declared themselves independent from [[Builder of Cybertron|Builder]]s and the [[Resistance]] alike. When the [[Vehicon (BM)|Vehicon]] threat arose and consumed Nuon, however, Airazor advocated abandoning neutrality and entering the war against the Builders. She frequently clashed with the pacifist [[Santon]], comparing him to a [[wormozoid ]]. When the Council received an audience by First Resistor [[Cheetor (BW)|Cheetor]] and [[Preditron]] to hear first hand about the Vehicons, the vote soon swayed in Airazor's favor, and the Maximal Nation went to war.
In the battles to come against the Vehicons and the [[Grand Mal]] fortress, Airazor fought as part of [[Magnaboss (BW)|Magnaboss]], joining with her fellow Councilbots as a battlefield general. They fought alongside the [[Micromaster]] Builder combiner [[Devastator (G1)|Devastator]] against all odds.

After the war, the [[Cybertronian Parliament]] was founded to govern the planet. The Maximal Nation remained an independent body, and the High Council elected Airazor to serve as their representative at Parliament along with Cheetor and [[Optimal]]. {{storylink|Derailment}}

[[File:BW-toy AirazorBasic.jpg|upright=1.66|thumb|Sharper than a cyber-razor cut!]]
*'''Airazor''' (Basic Class, 1997)
**''Takara ID number'': '''C-10'''
**''Accessories'': Blaster

: Part of the first wave of [[Hasbro]]'s second-year ''[[Beast Wars: Transformers (toyline)|Beast Wars]]'' Basics, Airazor transforms into a somewhat generic falcon (or some other bird of prey) with opening beak. Unlike first-year Basics, Airazor's transformation is entirely manual rather than spring-loaded, and therefore a bit more complex. Pulling on the yellow-plastic feathers near her tail activates a spring-loaded wing-movement gimmick. Each wing also has a flip-out blade, giving her a pincer-attack when used with the wing flappy-flappy. Her tail hides both a heat-sensitive "[[rubsign|energon chip]]" and a non-firing blaster that can be hand-held or mounted on the underside of either forearm.

: There is an ''exceedingly'' minor [[retool]]ing variant of this toy, where later releases added small grooves to the inside of the falcon-mode head, allowing for easier installation of the lower beak.

: The [[TakaraTomy|Takara]] release of the toy in January 1998 is seemingly identical to the Hasbro release, except (of course) for packaging.

*'''Airazor''' (Deluxe Transmetal, 1998/1999)
**''Takara ID number'': '''C-45'''

: Part of the third wave of Hasbro [[Transmetal]] Deluxes, Airazor transforms from a semi-organic robot into a mechanical falcon. She has a third "seaplane" mode with fold-down pontoons and exposed thruster engines. In robot mode, the chromed beast-mode backplate can fold around her torso as a "shield" mode. She holds the distinction of being the first [[female Transformer]] toy that was actually designed to be female from the start.

: Some early releases of the [[Hasbro]] Airazor have much more lavender-hued chrome than the normal blue of later versions.

: The Takara version of this toy, released in the first wave of ''Beast Wars Metals'' product, has more orange-tinted yellow plastics, and the pearlescent whites are more translucent white. The "AIRAZOR" [[tampograph]] on the Hasbro version's chromed shields was also changed to "CYBERTRON" with the Maximal [[insignia|faction symbol]]. The Takara version's chrome is also far less prone to flaking than the Hasbro version.

: A popular "fan mode" of the toy has the pontoons raised over her shoulders in robot mode, with the support struts pointing forward like cannons, giving her some ranged weaponry.

: This mold was also used to make ''[[Transformers: Armada (franchise)|Armada]]'' [[Airazor (Armada)#Toys|Airazor]].

:Released to commemorate the 25th anniversary of ''[[Beast Wars: Transformers (franchise)|Beast Wars]]'', ''[[War for Cybertron: Kingdom|Kingdom]]'' Airazor transforms from a ''[[Beast Wars: Transformers (cartoon)|Beast Wars]]'' cartoon-accurate robot into a realistic peregrine falcon. Said beast mode is more posable than it has ever been with past toys, with multiple joints in her wings, legs, and head, including an opening beak. She includes two weapons based on the arm-mounted talon missiles she used in the cartoon which can also be held in her hands and store on her beast mode rear. Oddly, Airazor's colors are ''much'' lighter than that of her appearance in ''Beast Wars''.

:Airazor's stock photography depicts an additional robot mode, with an extended torso, open wings, folded-down shoulder pads, and her falcon head and robot head switching places. The renders on her packaging also feature an inconsistancy; the render of her robot mode showcases a Maximal sigil on the chest/the neck of her Falcon mode's head, which is absent in the actual falcon mode's render and the figure itself.

:The multi-hinged segments in the middle of Airazor's wings are prone to developing stress marks if excessive force is used. Most notably this can happen when unfolding her wings from the packaging, as they are folded in a reverse manner contrary to the hinge design in order to fit them into the cardboard insert. Please take extra care unfolding them the first time.

:Much like most of the toyline, Airazor comes with one of four possible holographic [[Golden Disk (Voyager)|Golden Disk]] cards for her wave, which reveals a [[Source:Golden Disk destinies|possible destiny]] of a key character.

:Airazor was later retooled as ''Kingdom'' [[Skywarp (BW)#Generations|Maximal Skywarp]], and was heavily retooled as [[Terrorsaur (BW)#Generations|Terrorsaur]] for the ''Golden Disk Collection''.

*'''Beast Wars Transformers Mutating Card Game''' (1997)

:Airazor was one of the 24 beast warriors to receive a battle card representation for the Beast Wars [[Beast Wars Transformers Mutating Card Game|card game]].
{{--}}

==Gender==
[[File:AirazorJapan1.jpg|right|175px||thumb|[[tvtropes:Main/ShesAManInJapan|She's a man in Japan]]]]
Airazor's gender in the [[Hasbro]] line is due to ''Beast Wars'' story editors [[Bob Forward]] and [[Larry DiTillio]]'s insistence. The original Airazor toy wasn't developed with a specific gender in mind, and Bob & Larry wanted a larger female presence in the show, and the Airazor toy seemed as good a choice as any. They requested the change early enough that the toy's packaging bio could have its pronouns changed to female. The later Transmetal version of Airazor was the first American-released Transformer mold created to represent a female character.

In the Japanese dub of ''Beast Wars'', Airazor was made male. The exact reason for this has never been made known; it could have been for the sake of sales (girl characters tend to sell poorly in boys toylines) or [[TakaraTomy|Takara]] could have simply been working from outdated material provided by Hasbro in which Airazor was still regarded as male. We may never know.

Initially, the dub skirted around any possibility of romance between Airazor and Tigatron, altering all flirtatious dialogue to change the intent (Tigatron's line in "[[The Trigger, Part 2]]" about how "the lady shall ride a tiger" was rewritten to a more generic command for them to get moving). To explain the closeness of their relationship, Tigatron was humorously portrayed as a "samurai retainer" and Airazor acted as his "ward"; intimating a "brotherly" sort of bond.

Things remained as such all the way until "[[Other Visits (Part 1)]]" when the scripting and animation could no longer allow for any vagaries regarding their relationship. Beginning rather randomly in that episode, Airazor flirtatiously starts calling Tigatron by the nickname "Ti-chan", leaving Tigatron to get flustered and anxiously call for him to stop. When the pair are attacked, they both express their love for one another in dialogue primarily unchanged from the English version. Their romantic attraction was a very spontaneous change in the Japanese version of the series and Japanese magazine editors, responding to letters from confused young fans, gently explained the situation. From the letters page of the ''Beast Wars Club'' magazine:<ref>[http://netatama.net/lite/image/2263677 Scan] of the letters pages from a Japanese ''Beast Wars Club'' magazine</ref>

[[File:BWM Airazor color.jpg|left|thumb|175px|Except when she isn't.]]
:'''Question:''' "If Tigatron and Airazor are both boys, how come they were flirting when the [[Vok|Aliens]] abducted them?"
:'''Answer:''' "Even among humans there are boys who both love (like) each other. In the case of Tigatron and Airazor, they had been fighting together for a long time and as their emotions increased, their friendship turned to feelings of love. 'Transform', indeed!"

In the case of the ''[[Super Lifeform Transformers: Beast Wars Metals (manga)|Beast Wars Metals]]'' manga, however, Airazor's female gender was retained, as was her heterosexual romantic relationship with Tigatron. This was due to the fact that Airazor's [[Transmetal]] toy had an indisputably feminine build. Additionally, there was never a manga for the original ''Beast Wars'' cartoon in Japan, so the backstory for ''Metals'' could be whatever writer/artist [[Shōji Imaki]] wanted it to be (the manga has numerous irreconcilable divergences from the show's events right out of the gate). Airazor is presented as a stereotypically "girly" ingenue more deeply devoted to Tigatron, as compared to her English cartoon persona and design.

The ''[[Transformers Legends (comic)|Transformers Legends]]'' manga would poke "fun" at Airazor's gender bending from time to time. Airazor is portrayed as looking highly feminine and cute, however, it is revealed to the confusion of the cast that "she" is male. The same "joke" is extended onto [[Nightscream (BM)|Nightscream]], who was portrayed as a flamboyant homosexual in the dub of ''[[Beast Machines: Transformers (cartoon)#Japanese release|Beast Machines]]'', and is seen as a cross-dresser in the ''Legends'' manga. This is apparently supposed to be "funny".
{{--}}

==Notes==
*An [[Bitch Wars|unproduced ''Beast Wars'' episode concept]] would have seen Airazor and Blackarachnia join forces as a "third faction" for a bit. It went unproduced as the writers couldn't see where to go with the idea.
*Like most characters in the Japanese dub of ''Beast Wars'', Airazor was given a verbal tic—when in battle or transforming, [[#Gender|he]] would shout ''haya'' in imitation of a falcon's cry (''hayabusa'' also being the Japanese word for "falcon").
*Somewhat inexplicably, a number of the Italian toyline-specific names for various ''Beast Wars'' characters were only printed on the cardback for the Italian "video-pack" release of Airazor; the names do not even appear on the cardback for "video-pack" [[Razorclaw (BW)|Razorclaw]], who was presumably released in proximity to her, if not at the same time. The Italian names only printed on "video-pack" Airazor were: Insector ([[Powerpinch]]), Rapax ([[Lazorbeak]]), Vortex ([[Drill Bit (BW)|Drill Bit]]), Anfibius ([[Spittor (BW)|Spittor]]), Diablo ([[Snarl (BW)|Snarl]]), Cannibal ([[Manterror]]), Tenax ([[Retrax]]), Dingo ([[K-9]]), and Bison ([[Bonecrusher (BW)|Bonecrusher]]).
*The name of Airazor's ship in "[[Dawn of Future's Past]]", the ''[[Chromia 10]]'', is a reference to her original toy's Japanese ID number.
*The "Dawn of Future's Past" Club exclusive toy is only technically the second Club exclusive toy. She was actually shipped at the same time as [[Astrotrain (Cybertron)|Astrotrain]], but he was the first toy advertised.

===Foreign names===

Ambassador to many worlds, '''Crosscut''' (クロスカット ''Kurosukatto'', also '''Cross-Cut''') is key to the Autobots' peaceful negotiations across known space. He is fluent in over 230 Earth languages and 6300 alien languages. Though he carries a lot of weaponry, it is all defensive in nature, meant to incapacitate rather than kill. In dire emergencies, he can transfer all his data and memories to his scooter-drone [[Clutch (G1)|Clutch]] so his knowledge won't be lost even if he falls to the [[Decepticon]]s.<ref>''Collector's Edition'' Crosscut bio</ref>

[[Road Rage (G1)|Road Rage]] came to Crosscut's rescue when the ambassador was in a dangerous situation on a colony planet; he was impressed enough to invite her to be his bodyguard. {{Storylink|Road Rage (G1)#Masterpiece|''Masterpiece'' Road Rage bio}}

====''Legends'' comic====
In the late 1980s, Crosscut was part of a team that attempted to protect the [[Transform Super Cog]] from being stolen by the [[Decepticon]]s, but the [[Battlecharger]]s were able to rev past Crosscut and a few others into the ''[[Ark (G1)|Ark]]''. {{Storylink|Slugslinger's Ambition}}

Crosscut was a member of the [[Elite Guard]]'s [[Recon Team]], working with [[Rest-Q (G1)|Rest-Q]], [[Delta Seeker]], and their field leader [[Roadfire]]. A former ambassador for Cybertron to other planets, he used his translating skills to compensate for Rest-Q's hopelessly-incomprehensible dialogues.<ref>From a set of Elite Guard character descriptions on the Club forums.</ref> He was also a playwright of some note. [[Headcannon]] was a fan of his work. {{storylink|Source:Ask Vector Prime/Facebook#September 16, 2015|Ask Vector Prime, 16/09/2015}}

After the [[Stealth Team (G1)|Stealth Team]] was exposed to [[Nucleon (substance)|nucleon]], Crosscut interpreted for Rest-Q as he examined the radiation's effect on their super-structures.

[[File:Swerve crosscut the dead are not enough.jpg|thumb|left|upright=0.85|Here's some diplomacy right in your face!!]]
Crosscut is a former [[Senate|Senator]] turned playwright. He was [[reproduction|forged]], possessed a Vitrious-Negative [[spark]] and developed a phobia of [[Nanocon]]s during the war. He became famous for being one of the few Senators to take a stand during the early days of the Decepticon uprising, and celebrated for having liberated [[Petrex]] "with wise words and a shovel". However, Crosscut preferred people to know him for his art over his wartime reputation and eventually produced a play entitled ''[[My Shovel, Your Face]]''. {{storylink|The Dead Are Not Enough: Dark Cybertron Chapter 7|The Dead Are Not Enough}} {{storylink|Twenty Plus One}}

After the war's official end, he joined the ''[[Lost Light]]'' and was seen drinking in [[Swerve's]] with [[Smokescreen (G1)|Smokescreen]] shortly after [[First Aid (G1)|First Aid]] and [[Ambulon]] joined the crew. {{storylink|No Guns, No Swords, No Briefcases}}

[[File:Blurr crosscut the becoming.jpg|thumb|"I think his name was... ''Choom''?"]]
While fighting the [[Ammonite]]s on [[Hydrophena]], he invited [[Swerve (G1)|Swerve]] (who he confused with [[Rung (G1)|Rung]]) to see one of his plays (if they both survived). {{storylink|The Dead Are Not Enough: Dark Cybertron Chapter 7|The Dead Are Not Enough}} Unfortunately, he had already forgotten Swerve's name a few hours later when asked by [[Blurr (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Blurr]]. Inside Swerve's bar. Named ''Swerve's''. {{storylink|The Becoming: Dark Cybertron Chapter 10| The Becoming}} When the Ammonites attacked Cybertron shortly afterwards, he joined in the fight there. {{storylink|Black Planet: Dark Cybertron Chapter 11|Black Planet}}

Some time later, he helped run Swerve's (fake) "Crewditions" {{storylink|World, Shut Your Mouth Part 1: Towards Peace|Towards Peace}} and took prospective new crewmembers [[Riptide (G1)|Riptide]], [[Nautica (G1)|Nautica]], [[Mirage (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Mirage]], and [[Nightbeat (G1)|Nightbeat]] on a tour of the ''Lost Light''. {{storylink|No Guns, No Swords, No Briefcases}} He also began working on an experimental one-act, single stage play about [[information creep]] (called, unimaginatively, ''[[Information Creep]]'') but didn't have time to write the play before he, and every other original crewmember of the ''Lost Light'', vanished. {{storylink|Twenty Plus One}}

On a quantum duplicate ''Lost Light'', Crosscut did indeed finish ''Information Creep'' and was performing it at Swerve's when the [[Decepticon Justice Division]] arrived to massacre everyone. {{storylink|slaughterhouse}} When the original ''Lost Light'' reappeared, Crosscut and the rest of the crew returned along with it. {{storylink|slaughterhouse Part 2: The Road Not Taken|The Road Not Taken}} Some time later, he was seen drinking in Swerve's once again. {{storylink|The Lopsided Triangle}}

[[File:HowBrightTheirFrailDeeds-LostLightmutiny.jpg|thumb|left|270px|For Crosscut is an honorable man; so are they all, all honorable men]]
Crosscut attended Megatron's classes on the [[Knights of Cybertron]]. However, at some point he was approached by [[Getaway]] and [[Atomizer]] and vouched that he would support them in the event of a mutiny against the former Decepticon and his supporters. When the time came, the mutineers stranded [[Megatron (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Megatron]], [[Hot Rod (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Rodimus]], Swerve, and the others on the [[Mortilus|Necrobot]]'s planet and Crosscut stood alongside Getaway as he took the ''Lost Light''. {{storylink|The Dying of the Light: (1) How Bright Their Frail Deeds|How Bright Their Frail Deeds}}

After accepting Getaway as their new captain, Crosscut and the crew were unwillingly subjected to mnemosurgery by [[Sunder (G1)|Sunder]]. Their memories were altered to believe Rodimus and the others left the ''Lost Light'' of their own accord, abandoning the rest of the crew. {{storylink|The Plotters' Club (Part 2): Filling in the Blanks|Filling in the Blanks}} Crosscut was socializing at [["Visages"]] when [[First Aid (G1)|First Aid]] and the [[Protectobot (G1)|Protectobot]]s caught up with the ''Lost Light''. He sincerely explained what he ''believed'' had happened in First Aid's absence, although the doctor noted irregularities in the story he was told. {{storylink|The Plotters' Club (Part 1): Full Circle|Full Circle}}

Getaway ultimately betrayed his crew, however. When they were trapped by the [[Phantom Fleet]] of the [[Adaptus|Grand Architect]], Getaway turned Crosscut and the rest of his crew over to the Architect's ally, [[Scorponok (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Scorponok]]. They were subjected to a [[Sparkeater (creature)|Sparkeater]] virus, making them shambling, zombie-like drones who were later unleashed on Rodimus when his people caught up with them. {{storylink|Crucible (Part 1): A Dance Before Dying|A Dance Before Dying}} Crosscut was eventually cured and attended the ''Lost Light'''s farewell party in Swerve's. {{storylink|How To Say Goodbye And Mean It: Part 2}}

On post-war Cybertron, '''Cross-Cut''' was an immobile [[Builder of Cybertron|Builder]] and a member of the [[Builder Assembly]]. He and [[Kudon]] tried to advance the possibility of allowing a [[Micromaster]] into the Assembly, prompting [[Halogen (G1)|Halogen]] and [[Sigil (BWU)|Sigil]] to look for another Decepticon member to counter progress. {{storylink|Identity Politics}} [[Eject (G1)|Eject]] thought unfavorably of Cross-Cut and his fellow assemblymen. {{storylink|Broken Windshields}}

When the [[Grand Uprising]] of the proto-races started going badly, it was Cross-Cut who suggested the Assembly rescind [[General Order 66]], allowing their [[Vehicon (BM)|Vehicon]] drones to cross over into [[Iacon (polity)|Iacon]] and protect the Assembly directly. He was talked out of it by Administrator [[Eject (G1)|Eject]], and withdrew his proposal. When [[Ratbat (G1)|Ratbat]] revisited the proposal, Cross-Cut voted against it, but the order was rescinded by the majority. Instead of being their salvation, the Vehicons turned on their masters and assimilated all the assemblybots present, including Cross-Cut. {{storylink|Derailment}}

He transforms from a contemporary-looking hatchback into a heavily-armed robot, featuring (non-launching) missile pods in both shoulders, dual flip-out guns on each wrist, and two pairs of over-the-shoulder cannons. He comes with a rifle resembling his original toy's electromagnetic pulse emitter and a pistol based on a [[nudge gun]].

:The leg assembly error that many Skids figures had seems to have been corrected on this release.

==Notes==
[[File:G1Skids-instructions.jpg|thumb|This is not my beautiful skull!]]
* Crosscut's "new" head and coloration are based on one of the original pre-''Transformers'' ''[[Diaclone]]'' versions of the "Honda City R" mold. The original silver version was only available in a "double set" with a blue version of the "4WD Hi-Lux Wrecker" (pre-[[Hoist (G1)/toys|Hoist]]) that was ''also'' only available in that set. A red ''Diaclone'' version of the Honda City R was never ported over to ''Transformers'' but did eventually inspire the character [[Reboost]].
* Crosscut and Road Rage are notable for being the first additions to the Generation 1-era cast of characters after the original line ended since the short-lived ''[[Machine Wars: Transformers|Machine Wars]]'' series. This also started the general trend toward e-HOBBY releases being new characters rather than old characters in new colors.
* There is evidence that this version of the mold was the one originally intended to be released in the original [[The Transformers (toyline)|Generation 1 line]] rather than the "Honda City Turbo" model that would become Skids. The original Skids's instructions have the Crosscut mold's line-art, and in the [[The Transformers (Marvel comic)|Marvel UK comic]], artists [[Dan Reed]] and [[John Stokes]] drew Skids with Crosscut's head in several panels. It's possible the Turbo model was chosen because its face was more human-looking (to go along with the generally more humanized faces the characters were given in the cartoon), but this is merely speculation.
* The ''Diaclone'' figure also had a variant black deco in stock photography, but this version was ultimately not released.<ref>[https://twitter.com/_necronomitron_/status/1395127144468992000 Catalogue scan by Twitter user @_necronomitron_, 19 May 2021]</ref>

Crosscut was a member of the [[Elite Guard]]'s [[Recon Team]], working with [[Rest-Q (G1)|Rest-Q]], [[Delta Seeker]], and their field leader [[Roadfire]]. A former ambassador for Cybertron to other planets, he used his translating skills to compensate for Rest-Q's hopelessly-incomprehensible dialogues.<ref>From a set of Elite Guard character descriptions on the Club forums.</ref> He was also a playwright of some note. [[Headcannon]] was a fan of his work. {{storylink|Source:Ask Vector Prime/Facebook#September 16, 2015|Ask Vector Prime, 16/09/2015}}

After the [[Stealth Team (G1)|Stealth Team]] was exposed to [[Nucleon (substance)|nucleon]], Crosscut interpreted for Rest-Q as he examined the radiation's effect on their super-structures. His upbeat delivery did little to cover the fact that Rest-Q had no idea when they would regain the ability to transform. {{storylink|A Team Effort}}

Crosscut was among the Elite Guardsmen seen defending their base from the traitorous [[Combaticon (G1)|Combaticon]]s. {{storylink|The Coming Storm: Part 5}} His corpse was hurled through a section of the Elite Guard headquarters by [[Bruticus (G1)|Bruticus]] just as the [[Strike Team]] arrived on the scene. {{storylink|The Coming Storm: Part 6}}

[[File:Swerve crosscut the dead are not enough.jpg|thumb|left|upright=0.85|Here's some diplomacy right in your face!!]]
Crosscut is a former [[Senate|Senator]] turned playwright. He was [[reproduction|forged]], possessed a Vitrious-Negative [[spark]] and developed a phobia of [[Nanocon]]s during the war. He became famous for being one of the few Senators to take a stand during the early days of the Decepticon uprising, and celebrated for having liberated [[Petrex]] "with wise words and a shovel". However, Crosscut preferred people to know him for his art over his wartime reputation and eventually produced a play entitled ''[[My Shovel, Your Face]]''. {{storylink|The Dead Are Not Enough: Dark Cybertron Chapter 7|The Dead Are Not Enough}} {{storylink|Twenty Plus One}}

After the war's official end, he joined the ''[[Lost Light]]'' and was seen drinking in [[Swerve's]] with [[Smokescreen (G1)|Smokescreen]] shortly after [[First Aid (G1)|First Aid]] and [[Ambulon]] joined the crew. {{storylink|No Guns, No Swords, No Briefcases}}

[[File:Blurr crosscut the becoming.jpg|thumb|"I think his name was... ''Choom''?"]]
While fighting the [[Ammonite]]s on [[Hydrophena]], he invited [[Swerve (G1)|Swerve]] (who he confused with [[Rung (G1)|Rung]]) to see one of his plays (if they both survived). {{storylink|The Dead Are Not Enough: Dark Cybertron Chapter 7|The Dead Are Not Enough}} Unfortunately, he had already forgotten Swerve's name a few hours later when asked by [[Blurr (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Blurr]]. Inside Swerve's bar. Named ''Swerve's''. {{storylink|The Becoming: Dark Cybertron Chapter 10| The Becoming}} When the Ammonites attacked Cybertron shortly afterwards, he joined in the fight there. {{storylink|Black Planet: Dark Cybertron Chapter 11|Black Planet}}

Some time later, he helped run Swerve's (fake) "Crewditions" {{storylink|World, Shut Your Mouth Part 1: Towards Peace|Towards Peace}} and took prospective new crewmembers [[Riptide (G1)|Riptide]], [[Nautica (G1)|Nautica]], [[Mirage (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Mirage]], and [[Nightbeat (G1)|Nightbeat]] on a tour of the ''Lost Light''. {{storylink|No Guns, No Swords, No Briefcases}} He also began working on an experimental one-act, single stage play about [[information creep]] (called, unimaginatively, ''[[Information Creep]]'') but didn't have time to write the play before he, and every other original crewmember of the ''Lost Light'', vanished. {{storylink|Twenty Plus One}}

On a quantum duplicate ''Lost Light'', Crosscut did indeed finish ''Information Creep'' and was performing it at Swerve's when the [[Decepticon Justice Division]] arrived to massacre everyone. {{storylink|slaughterhouse}} When the original ''Lost Light'' reappeared, Crosscut and the rest of the crew returned along with it. {{storylink|slaughterhouse Part 2: The Road Not Taken|The Road Not Taken}} Some time later, he was seen drinking in Swerve's once again. {{storylink|The Lopsided Triangle}}

[[File:HowBrightTheirFrailDeeds-LostLightmutiny.jpg|thumb|left|270px|For Crosscut is an honorable man; so are they all, all honorable men]]
Crosscut attended Megatron's classes on the [[Knights of Cybertron]]. However, at some point he was approached by [[Getaway]] and [[Atomizer]] and vouched that he would support them in the event of a mutiny against the former Decepticon and his supporters. When the time came, the mutineers stranded [[Megatron (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Megatron]], [[Hot Rod (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Rodimus]], Swerve, and the others on the [[Mortilus|Necrobot]]'s planet and Crosscut stood alongside Getaway as he took the ''Lost Light''. {{storylink|The Dying of the Light: (1) How Bright Their Frail Deeds|How Bright Their Frail Deeds}}

After accepting Getaway as their new captain, Crosscut and the crew were unwillingly subjected to mnemosurgery by [[Sunder (G1)|Sunder]]. Their memories were altered to believe Rodimus and the others left the ''Lost Light'' of their own accord, abandoning the rest of the crew. {{storylink|The Plotters' Club (Part 2): Filling in the Blanks|Filling in the Blanks}} Crosscut was socializing at [["Visages"]] when [[First Aid (G1)|First Aid]] and the [[Protectobot (G1)|Protectobot]]s caught up with the ''Lost Light''. He sincerely explained what he ''believed'' had happened in First Aid's absence, although the doctor noted irregularities in the story he was told. {{storylink|The Plotters' Club (Part 1): Full Circle|Full Circle}}

Getaway ultimately betrayed his crew, however. When they were trapped by the [[Phantom Fleet]] of the [[Adaptus|Grand Architect]], Getaway turned Crosscut and the rest of his crew over to the Architect's ally, [[Scorponok (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Scorponok]]. They were subjected to a [[Sparkeater (creature)|Sparkeater]] virus, making them shambling, zombie-like drones who were later unleashed on Rodimus when his people caught up with them. {{storylink|Crucible (Part 1): A Dance Before Dying|A Dance Before Dying}} Crosscut was eventually cured and attended the ''Lost Light'''s farewell party in Swerve's. {{storylink|How To Say Goodbye And Mean It: Part 2}}

===''Beast Wars: Uprising''===
On post-war Cybertron, '''Cross-Cut''' was an immobile [[Builder of Cybertron|Builder]] and a member of the [[Builder Assembly]]. He and [[Kudon]] tried to advance the possibility of allowing a [[Micromaster]] into the Assembly, prompting [[Halogen (G1)|Halogen]] and [[Sigil (BWU)|Sigil]] to look for another Decepticon member to counter progress. {{storylink|Identity Politics}} [[Eject (G1)|Eject]] thought unfavorably of Cross-Cut and his fellow assemblymen. {{storylink|Broken Windshields}}

When the [[Grand Uprising]] of the proto-races started going badly, it was Cross-Cut who suggested the Assembly rescind [[General Order 66]], allowing their [[Vehicon (BM)|Vehicon]] drones to cross over into [[Iacon (polity)|Iacon]] and protect the Assembly directly. He was talked out of it by Administrator [[Eject (G1)|Eject]], and withdrew his proposal. When [[Ratbat (G1)|Ratbat]] revisited the proposal, Cross-Cut voted against it, but the order was rescinded by the majority. Instead of being their salvation, the Vehicons turned on their masters and assimilated all the assemblybots present, including Cross-Cut. {{storylink|Derailment}}

**''ID number'': '''95'''
**''Accessories'': "Clutch" drone, "Electromagnetic pulse emitter" rifle, "twin vertigo gun" double-blaster, "stun grenade" launcher, 3 "stun grenades"

:''[[Collector's Edition]]'' Crosscut is a [[redeco]]/[[retool]] of [[Skids (G1)#Toys|Skids]], transforming into a {{w|Honda City (AA)|Honda City R}} hatchback with a different head and hood. He also comes with a {{w|Honda Motocompo}} "scooter" accessory named "Clutch" that fits in his hatchback. As he was a Japanese release, his spring-loaded missile launcher is fully functional.

:Crosscut was an [[exclusive]] to [[e-HOBBY]], sold only in a set with [[Road Rage (G1)#Toys|Road Rage]]. Pre-orders ended on [[July 31]] of 2002, and the toys were sent out in October.

:This tooling was [[redeco]]ed to make the ''[[Transformers Generations 2009]]'' exclusive [[Screech (Generations)#Toys|Screech]].

**''Accessories:'' Small gun, large gun (combine to form rifle)

:Part of the tenth wave of 2012-onwards ''[[Transformers: Generations (toyline)#T30|Generations]]'' Deluxe Class toys, ''[[Thrilling 30]]'' Crosscut is a retool of [[Skids (G1)#Generations|Skids]], featuring a new head based on Crosscut's original toy. He transforms from a contemporary-looking hatchback into a heavily-armed robot, featuring (non-launching) missile pods in both shoulders, dual flip-out guns on each wrist, and two pairs of over-the-shoulder cannons. He comes with a rifle resembling his original toy's electromagnetic pulse emitter and a pistol based on a [[nudge gun]]. These weapons can combine into a larger rifle, and can be held or peg onto his vehicle sides via [[5 mm post]].

:The leg assembly error that many Skids figures had seems to have been corrected on this release. He has visible light-piping on the back of his head, but his eyes are painted yellow, rendering it useless. Sadly the balance problem was also left unresolved, causing Crosscut to have a great deal of trouble standing up unless posed in a way that offsets the weight.

:In the United States and Hasbro's Asian markets, he came [[pack-in material|packed]] with the Hasbro exclusive cover variant of "[[The Dead Are Not Enough: Dark Cybertron Chapter 7]]", with its pages out of order (pages 1-4 are placed between pages 20 and 21). In Canada, the comic was not included.

:The original version of this sculpt was also used to make ''[[Transformers: Age of Extinction (toyline)|Age of Extinction]]'' [[Rollbar (AOE)#Toys|Rollbar]] and ''[[Transformers Timelines (toyline)|Timelines]]'' [[Burn Out (Diaclone)#Toys|Burn Out]].

==Notes==
[[File:G1Skids-instructions.jpg|thumb|This is not my beautiful skull!]]
* Crosscut's "new" head and coloration are based on one of the original pre-''Transformers'' ''[[Diaclone]]'' versions of the "Honda City R" mold. The original silver version was only available in a "double set" with a blue version of the "4WD Hi-Lux Wrecker" (pre-[[Hoist (G1)/toys|Hoist]]) that was ''also'' only available in that set. A red ''Diaclone'' version of the Honda City R was never ported over to ''Transformers'' but did eventually inspire the character [[Reboost]].
* Crosscut and Road Rage are notable for being the first additions to the Generation 1-era cast of characters after the original line ended since the short-lived ''[[Machine Wars: Transformers|Machine Wars]]'' series. This also started the general trend toward e-HOBBY releases being new characters rather than old characters in new colors.
* There is evidence that this version of the mold was the one originally intended to be released in the original [[The Transformers (toyline)|Generation 1 line]] rather than the "Honda City Turbo" model that would become Skids. The original Skids's instructions have the Crosscut mold's line-art, and in the [[The Transformers (Marvel comic)|Marvel UK comic]], artists [[Dan Reed]] and [[John Stokes]] drew Skids with Crosscut's head in several panels. It's possible the Turbo model was chosen because its face was more human-looking (to go along with the generally more humanized faces the characters were given in the cartoon), but this is merely speculation.
* The ''Diaclone'' figure also had a variant black deco in stock photography, but this version was ultimately not released.<ref>[https://twitter.com/_necronomitron_/status/1395127144468992000 Catalogue scan by Twitter user @_necronomitron_, 19 May 2021]</ref>

:''Jackpot is an [[Autobot]] [[Action Master]] from the [[Generation 1 continuity family|Generation 1]] [[continuity family]].''
[[File:Jackpot.jpg|upright=1.4|thumb|Hit me. Hit me. Hit me. Uh, hit me. Hit me.]]
'''Jackpot''' seems to have "lucky" built into his core programming. He really gets a kick out of placing bets on dangerous predicaments and coming out on top. The higher the stakes, the happier he is. He once bet a [[Decepticon]] guard he could escape from the cell he was being held in... and now that Decepticon is in the cell Jackpot formerly inhabited.

To tilt things even further in his favor, Jackpot relies on his avian [[Action Master partner|partner]] [[Sights (G1)|Sights]] to scout out information beforehand. Of course, some are just waiting for the day Jackpot's luck runs out... which might have disastrous results for the [[Autobot]].

Jackpot has a big thing for [[Female Transformer|fembots]] (especially ones with racing stripes), despite it being the one aspect of life where he isn't (getting) lucky.

{{quote|"''Whoooohooo!'' We ditched them! We're home free!"<br>"We got lucky."<br>"Of ''course'' we did, ''I'm'' here."|'''Jackpot''' and '''[[Hubcap (G1)|Hubcap]]'''|"[[Gone Too Far]]"|noquote=true}}

==Fiction==
===2005 IDW continuity===
{{first|''[[Spotlight: Arcee]]''}}
[[File:SpotlightArcee RadJackpot WHOMPH.jpg|upright=1.1|thumb|Cybertronian casinos use drastic measures to discourage card-counters.]]
Long ago, Jackpot was one of the Autobots stationed at the [[Garrus-9]] penal colony. He and [[Rad (G1)|Rad]] were the ones to haul [[Impactor (G1)|Impactor]] away after the (now former) leader of the [[Wrecker]]s was found guilty of murdering [[Squadron X|several prisoners of war]]. {{Storylink|Last Stand of the Wreckers issue 5|Last Stand of the Wreckers #5}} Much later, he was still there when [[Banzai-Tron (G1)|Banzai-Tron]] raided the prison and was caught in an explosion during the first salvo. {{storylink|Spotlight: Arcee}}

Jackpot was among the Autobots who fled from [[Kimia Facility]] when [[Galvatron (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Galvatron]]'s minions attacked, and later listened to [[Arcee (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Arcee]] and [[Hardhead (G1)|Hardhead]] tell the survivors of Galvatron's plan. {{storylink|Chaos Part Four: Genesis|Genesis}}

[[File:Brainstorm bets Primus You Me and Other Revelations.jpg|thumb|upright=1.5|left|Function: Bookie]]
After the war ended, Jackpot made a bet with someone. He lost, and as a result was forced to board the ''[[Lost Light]]''. {{storylink|Life After the Big Bang}} Later, he ran into [[Ultra Magnus (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Ultra Magnus]] and simply swatted aside the latter's remark about his crooked badge. Jackpot then attended [[Tailgate (G1)|Tailgate]]'s Autobot initiation ceremony where he placed bets with [[Brainstorm (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Brainstorm]], [[Chromedome (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Chromedome]], and [[Rewind (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Rewind]] about how long it would take [[Hot Rod (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Rodimus]] to say his famous "[['Til all are one]]" line. {{storylink|Primus: You, Me, and Other Revelations|You, Me, and Other Revelations}} He was among the crew members who responded to [[Overlord (G1)|Overlord]]'s rampage through the ship. {{storylink|Under Cold Blue Stars}}

[[File:Tailgate mainframe jackpot words hang in the air.jpg|thumb|upright=2.1]]
When [[Swerve's]] was wrecked in a [[Legislator]] attack, Jackpot helped cleaned it up, discovering the deactivated Legislator that would become [[Ten]] in the progress. {{storylink|No Guns, No Swords, No Briefcases}} Following the ''Lost Light''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s brief return to Cybertron, Jackpot remained on board the ship as the mission continued. The day Tailgate was released from the med center, Jackpot drunkenly (VERY drunkenly) welcomed him back. {{storylink|World, Shut Your Mouth Part 2: Words Hang in the Air|Words Hang in the Air}} Alongside the rest of the crew he abandoned ship when the ''Lost Light'' began disappearing into nothing piece by piece. {{storylink|World, Shut Your Mouth Part 3: Predestination: A Beginner's Guide|Predestination: A Beginner's Guide}}

On the on-course quantum duplicate of the ''Lost Light'', the quantum duplicate of Jackpot was killed by the [[Decepticon Justice Division]] and had his [[transformation cog]] harvested by [[Tarn (DJD)|Tarn]]. {{storylink|slaughterhouse}}

Later on the regular ''Lost Light'', Jackpot was seen drinking in Swerve's with [[Rollout (G1)|Rollout]], {{storylink|The Lopsided Triangle}} and again once [[Thunder Clash|Thunderclash]] was (temporarily) back on his feet. {{storylink|The Plotters' Club (Part 2): Filling in the Blanks|Filling in the Blanks}}

[[File:ADanceBeforeDying JackpotDestroyed.jpg|thumb|upright=1.0|left|Damages [[Rung (G1)|Primus]] and is killed by [[Thunder Clash|Thunderclash]]? He IS lucky.]]
As one of many crew members unhappy with their lack of progress and [[Megatron (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Megatron]]'s presence on their ship, Jackpot supported [[Getaway]]'s mutiny that saw Rodimus and his [[Team Rodimus|closest circle]] removed from the vessel. {{storylink|The Dying of the Light: (1) How Bright Their Frail Deeds|How Bright Their Frail Deeds}} It was Jackpot who sabotaged the [[Rodpod]] so that its teleport drive only held enough charge for a one-way trip, abandoning Megatron and his "fan club" on [[Necroworld]]. However, he was taken aback after learning of some of the measures Getaway had taken in pursuit of the mutiny. Like most of the crew, he was later subjected to shadowplay by [[Sunder (G1)|Sunder]] on Getaway's behalf, clouding his memories and making him believe Rodimus and the others had abandoned them, instead of the other way around. {{storylink|The Plotters' Club (Part 2): Filling in the Blanks|Filling in the Blanks}} He gave this version of events to [[First Aid (G1)|First Aid]] when the Protectobots reconnected with the ship. {{storylink|The Plotters' Club (Part 1): Full Circle|Full Circle}} He was also on the bridge when [[Perceptor (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Perceptor]] tested use of the [[Warren]] to shortcut through space and time, and the ''Lost Light'' finally found Cyberutopia. {{storylink|The Plotters' Club (Part 3): Journey's End|Journey's End}}

Except, they didn't. Cyberutopia was nothing more than a holographic sham, an the ''Lost Light'' was soon confronted by the [[Phantom Fleet]] of the [[Adaptus|Grand Architect]]. Getaway sold out his crew to save his own neck, allowing Jackpot and the others to be subjected to a [[Sparkeater (creature)|Sparkeater]] virus by [[Scorponok (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Scorponok]], turning them into shambling, hungry zombie-bots. They were unleashed on Rodimus and the other Autobots when they caught up with Cyberutopia, forced to attack their former comrades in their diseased state. When Jackpot's acid vomit melted [[Rung (G1)|Rung]]'s arm off, Thunderclash shot and seemingly killed him. {{storylink|Crucible (Part 1): A Dance Before Dying|A Dance Before Dying}}

===''TransTech''===
[[File:Jackpot GoneTooFar.jpg|upright=1.4|thumb|I WON A NOSE!]]
When Jackpot and [[Hubcap (G1)|Hubcap]] arrived on [[Axiom Nexus]] via a [[space bridge]] accident, they both were processed, given identification cards and bolts, and sent out with their guide [[Scattorshot (Cybertron)|Scattorshot]]. After listening to Scattorshot explain the city—an explanation involving quantum mechanics much to Jackpot's irritation—Jackpot merrily dragged the reluctant Hubcap deeper into the city.

Jackpot wanted to go to the most lawless part of the city, while Hubcap wanted to stay somewhere slightly safer, so they compromised and eventually ended up at ''[[The Blue Deployer]]'' in the middle. Hubcap wandered off to gamble while Jackpot was greeted by [[Cryotek (TransTech)|Cryotek]] while ordering a drink at the bar. Later he made his way to the gambling area himself, though more interested in gambling on the roulette wheel [[Roulette (Universe)|croupier]] than at any of the tables.

Eventually he caught up with Hubcap, who was in a high-stakes quantum physics card game with [[Gutcruncher (G1)|Gutcruncher]]. Jackpot's luck aura clashed with the quantum probabilities, causing Hubcap to lose all of their money. But Gutcruncher was impressed with Hubcap's skills, offering him (and Jackpot as Hubcap's "business consultant") a job if they met him at a certain time and location the next day. Though both Autobots were skeptical, Cryotek urged them to go, and their curiosity and need for money won out.

When the two arrived, they realized they had been invited to Gutcruncher leading the "[[lowtech]]" gang members of Axiom Nexus in a revolution. Before they could start panicking, an energy shot went past their heads and killed Gutcruncher... and everyone else immediately thought they did it. The two realized they had been set up and made a run for it, Jackpot hanging off the top of Hubcap's [[alternate mode|altmode]]. One of the gang members latched onto Hubcap, and Jackpot kicked him in the face, causing the gang member's laser shot to go astray and strike a fluid main. As the fluid flushed out the gang members, the two Autobots narrowly outpaced the wave, the resulting geyser launching them to safety.

When they soon discovered the police wanted them now as well, Jackpot convinced Hubcap that they should return to ''The Blue Deployer'', figuring that was the last place they would be expected to go. Cryotek was unwilling to protect them, however, so Jackpot had a new plan—find the real killer themselves to clear their names. Hubcap thought that was insane, but Jackpot accidentally bumped into a policebot before he could convince Hubcap otherwise. He and Hubcap tried to escape again, but were caught.

The two were interrogated by [[Cheetor (TransTech)|Cheetor]] and [[Stungun (TransTech)|Stungun]], including Stungun mistakenly assuming Jackpot being an [[Action Master]] meant he had a [[Nucleon (substance)|drug]] problem. The officers knew the two couldn't have assassinated Gutcruncher, but still wanted them in protective custody, so Jackpot had Hubcap smoke Cheetor out by reminding him of "that one time on Antares 3". Jackpot then sent Stungun sprawling with a punch, and he and Hubcap ran off yet again.

They headed towards the ''[[Widow's Cafe Cybertronian]]'', a potential hideout gateway recommended by Cryotek. But once there they got literally tripped up by more gang members, one of whom shot at Jackpot. The shot struck the middle of Jackpot's [[identification bolt]] and ricocheted into [[Detectas|a police officer]] tailing them, sending the officer crashing to the ground. That started a chain reaction which downed a neon sign, electrocuting the gang members. The Autobots left the damaged officer behind as they made yet another run for it.

Jackpot was in bad need of a rest to recover his nucleon and [[energon]] stores by that point, but before they could hide in one of the abandoned buildings in the area, they were approached by Cryotek's flunky [[Black Shadow (G1)|Black Shadow]]. Black Shadow revealed that he had killed Gutcruncher and set the two up, and now was going to kill them and throw their bodies to the gangs, so the two split up and ran for it. Jackpot ended up being pursued by Black Shadow's [[Crossformer]] shell, and got into a fistfight with it after it chased him into a dead end alleyway.

The fight ended up going badly for Jackpot, and he eventually found himself beaten and completely depleted. But just as the shell was about to execute him, it suddenly cracked apart and crumbled to the ground, due to Hubcap having been able to get the real Black Shadow found out and killed elsewhere. After learning the news from Hubcap, Jackpot strolled confidently out of the alleyway... and bumped right into [[Airazor (BW)|Officer Airazor]].

Their names finally cleared of Gutcruncher's assassination, the two were given expedited exit visas to [[Primax 207.0 Epsilon|a universe similar to their own]], having been classified as "undesirables" after all their antics. Though instead of [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]] or [[Earth]], the [[Transcendent Technomorph|TransTechs]] sent the two Autobots to the backwater planet [[Zegris]] instead. They ended up landing on and taking out [[Killzone]], a Decepticon who had been terrorizing the populace. After finding out why a Decepticon would be interested in a backwater planet, the two were all too happy to help the aliens deal with their millions of tons of horrible [[Energon cube|exploding pink rocks]]... {{storylink|Gone Too Far}}

Hi i'm a rather normal fan of TF with interests based on the Bayverse and TFP mainly.

Goals:
* Create entries for new released figures.

B-712: /* Talk page question */ Can I delete this from your page?

==Previous discussions==
Previous discussions from before I became an admin can be found at [[User talk:Cyberlink420/Archive1|Archive]]. However, please do not edit the Archive page.



== Ok, sorry ==
Can I re-upload it after it fits the standards of this wiki? --[[User:GobotsFanForever|GobotsFanForever]] ([[User talk:GobotsFanForever|talk]]) 20:08, 9 April 2021 (EDT)
:Sure, but you might be better off finding a different image of Whirl. In the one you uploaded, she's just sort of standing there, while all the other images are more dynamic and show her actually doing things. Try to find something more distinct that better conveys what the character is doing in the episode. -- [[User:Cyberlink420|Cyberlink420]] ([[User talk:Cyberlink420|talk]]) 20:39, 9 April 2021 (EDT)

== Hoist Goes Hollywood ==

You reverted my edit saying it was "still a stretch." What I wrote was:

"The Autobot cast for this episode is particularly appropriate. Apart from Hoist, all the Autobots who crash the filming in search of stardom are notably vain attention-seekers. Though this trait is rarely played up with Warpath, his ego regarding his gun and shooting skills is mentioned in his bios, and he appropriately makes his entrance by displaying his sharpshooting skills."

My question is this: How the heck is that a stretch? It notes what was clearly the writer's intention in casting the episode and explains the choice of a character who would seemingly be the odd man out.

I don't do a lot of editing on here, and I genuinely try to do so only when I feel I'm adding something or improving something in accordance with the standards as I understand them, but I've had several edits reverted recently that I had put a good amount of thought into, and the justifications for those reversions have been uniformly unsatisfying and very poorly explained. {{unsigned|Tjfosko}}
:I genuinely don't think the writer put that much thought into it. And unless you have an interview with the writer saying as much, you can't say it was clearly their intention; it was more likely as simple as them being told "here's the toy(s) we want to promote this week, write a story about them". This just feels like adding a note for the sake of adding a note on an overly crowded page. (I personally think a lot of the existing notes don't serve to add much either, so it's not just a you thing.) And please remember to sign your talk page posts. -- [[User:Cyberlink420|Cyberlink420]] ([[User talk:Cyberlink420|talk]]) 23:29, 15 May 2021 (EDT)

::So, you don't think the writer of the episode picked specifically four glory-hounds to crash a movie studio hoping for stardom, but that he instead got a note saying, "We want you to sell Hoist, Tracks, Sunstreaker, Powerglide, and Warpath this week"? Look at Earl Kress's episode credits. "The Immobilizer" is practically the only episode dealing with Ironhide's age (besides a few minor asides) and actually features a rare instance of Trailbreaker being a jokester. "B.O.T.," for all its flaws, plays up Swindle better than any other episode. "Desertion of the Dinobots" doesn't have the same degree of focus, but the episodes he wrote tend to be very strong in their depictions of characters. Even if your scenario of "promote these toys this week" is accurate (which I don't think it is, as the production materials that I've seen make it seem like Hasbro gave broad strokes with the exception of a few instances of "don't use this guy because we aren't releasing him" (Reflector) or "shove this in somewhere because it's a new toy" (Protectobots)), that only makes the cast more noteworthy, as it's an incredibly convenient accident. It seems way, way more likely that the writers, with the exception of the more mercenary jobs like "The Search for Vector Sigma," were given a box of toys and told, "these are your available characters, choose as you wish."

Since G1 Optimus Prime and Megatron have an extremely long list of appearances and will likely have even more in the future, can I split their Game appearances into separate pages? --[[User:GobotsFanForever|GobotsFanForever]] ([[User talk:GobotsFanForever|talk]]) 13:36, 16 August 2021 (EDT)

V-Star

2021-09-25T21:14:57Z

B-712: /* Notes */ [#]

:''The V-Star is a component of Star Saber from the [[Fight! Super Robot Lifeform Transformers: Victory (franchise)|Victory portion]] of the [[Generation 1 continuity family]].''
[[File:AttackLeozack V-Star.jpg|thumb|upright=1.6]]
On its own, the '''V-Star''' (Vスター ''Bui Sutā'') is a flying weapons platform, able to be controlled remotely by [[Autobot]] leader [[Star Saber (G1)|Star Saber]], or, on occasion, piloted by [[Jan Minakaze]]. In addition, it connects to Star Saber's Saber form in both robot and vehicle mode, providing him with more power and weapons. Due to the V-Star's size, it's usually found parked in [[Rocket Base|Shuttle Base]]'s hangar deck or in the maintenance bay, at least when Star Saber isn't using it.

==Fiction==
===''Victory'' cartoon===
[[File:Saber and vstar.jpg|thumb|left|upright=1.4]]
While fighting [[Dinoking]], Star Saber mounted the V-Star and used it to strafe the combiner. {{storylink|Sneak Attack! Dinoking}} The [[Dinoforce]] attacked [[Schwimmbad School|Jan's school]] with [[Leozack]], and Star Saber had Jan pilot the V-Star to aid in the school's defence. When Star Saber later needed to combine with it, Jan ejected, though the lack of a parachute meant that [[Holi]] had to catch him. {{storylink|Attack! Leozack}}

The V-Star demonstrated its versatility when Star Saber was fighting with Leozack at an ocean amusement park — the [[Rescue Patrol Team]] were able to use it to evacuate from the damaged buildings. {{storylink|Move Out! Rescue Team}} During an attack on a uranium mine, Star Saber rode on the V-Star and successfully shot down Leozack. {{storylink| Infiltration... The Uranium Mine}}

Too large to fit into the railway tunnels under [[New York City]] in his largest mode, Star Saber ventured in using his smaller mode with the V-Star in tow. It was later used to attack [[Deathsaurus (G1)|Deathsaurus]] as Star Saber tried to stop him from stealing energy. {{storylink|Big City - Underground Terror}} During another fight, [[Breast Animal]]s damaged the V-Star, forcing Star Saber to separate from it. {{storylink|The New Warrior - Hellbat}}

[[File:TankerHijack Braver on VStar.jpg|thumb|upright=1.4]]
The Decepticons continued to steal energy. On one particular attempt, [[Hellbat (G1)|Hellbat]] attempted to divert Star Saber to prevent him from pursuing Leozack. Star Saber responded by separating from the V-Star, which continued the pursuit while Star Saber dealt with Hellbat. The V-Star was able to shoot the rope tethering the container of energy to Leozack, and the Decepticon got away empty-handed. {{storylink|Attack the Shuttle Base!!}} When the Decepticons planted a [[neutron bomb]] atop [[Marine Tower]], [[Braver]] used the V-Star to ride to the top of the tower so he could begin dismantling the bomb. It was later used to knock out the tractor beams on the ''[[Thunder Arrow]]'', which the Decepticons were using to draw in an [[oil tanker]]. {{storylink|Tanker Hijack Operation}}

The V-Star was again utilised to destroy some tractor beams, during an altercation in the [[asteroid belt]] when Star Saber investigated some starship disappearances and stumbled on yet another Decepticon plan. It proceeded to attack Hellbat while Star Saber was busy brawling with the rest of the [[Breastforce]], going on to attack the ''Thunder Arrow'' and the Dinoforce while the [[human]] prisoners were evacuated. {{storylink|A Fierce Battle!! The Asteroid}}

[[File:RescueGaihawk last second save.jpg|thumb|left||upright=1.4]]
When the Autobots visited the planet [[Micro]], the V-Star spent most of the time parked outside the capitol building. Star Saber sent it to assist the Rescue Team with evacuations, and they hurried to complete their work so that it could be returned to him and aid him in his battle. {{storylink|Planet Micro - The Mysterious Warrior}} Again displaying the advantages of an independent platform, Star Saber was able to save both Holi and [[Sixshot (G1)|Greatshot]] from falling into a pool of lava. {{storylink|Rescue! Guyhawk}}

[[File:AntarcticBattle swordfight on vstar.jpg|thumb|upright=1.4]]
During an aerial dual with [[Guyhawk]], Star Saber rode on the back of the V-Star and used his ''sword'' to strike at the Decepticon jet. Somehow this worked. Star Saber is just that awesome. {{storylink|Battle Up of Wrath!!}} The move worked so well that he did it again while battling against Deathsaurus in [[Antarctica]]. {{storylink|Fight to the Death!! Antarctic Battle}}

Perhaps getting wise to this, Leozak, Guyhawk and Hellbat used their [[Electromagnetic Nunchaku]] to attach a bomb to the rear of the V-Star. Star Saber transformed and tried to detach it to no avail — the bomb exploded in his face. The V-Star crashed, but the Breastforce attacked him anew, forcing him to combine with it in robot mode to face them. {{storylink| A Deadly Battle}} With the addition of [[Ginrai (robot)|Victory Leo]] to the team, the V-Star wasn't used as much independently, though Jan and the Micromasters were seen polishing it up before Star Saber left for a conference. {{storylink|A Mystery?! The Deception of the Base Bombs}}

===''Victory'' manga===
On one occasion, when [[Liokaiser]] had Star Saber and Jan in his grip, the Autobot leader took advantage of the fact that the Breastforce were busy arguing and separated from the V-Star, loosing the pair from the combiner's grip. Jan, in control of the V-Star, transformed it into a special battle mode, blasting Liokaiser while Star Saber whacked the Decepticon solidly with his shield. {{storylink|Star of Friendship, Jan and Star Saber!}}

===''Transformers '84''===
Surrounded by Deathsaurus' Decepticons, Star Saber summoned the V-Star to escape. As he flew off, the V-Star picked up on [[Ultra Magnus (G1)/Marvel Comics continuity|Ultra Magnus]]'s orders to return to [[Autobase]]. {{storylink|Secrets & Lies issue 3|Secrets & Lies #3}}

:The V-Star originally came with Star Saber's toy. In grand Autobot leader tradition, it transforms into a battle station which Saber can man, and then into a larger body with which Saber can combine, forming "Star Saber". Saber slots into the empty chest area of the V-Star body, with his normal robot head forming Star Saber's ordinary, unmasked head, which is the appearance he commonly employs in fiction when he is not in battle. His battle helmet, featuring an Optimus-Prime-style mouthplate, is connected to the V-Star, and can swing up to fit over Saber's head.

The V-Star was able to shoot the rope tethering the container of energy to Leozack, and the Decepticon got away empty-handed. {{storylink|Attack the Shuttle Base!!}} When the Decepticons planted a [[neutron bomb]] atop [[Marine Tower]], [[Braver]] used the V-Star to ride to the top of the tower so he could begin dismantling the bomb. It was later used to knock out the tractor beams on the ''[[Thunder Arrow]]'', which the Decepticons were using to draw in an [[oil tanker]]. {{storylink|Tanker Hijack Operation}}

The V-Star was again utilised to destroy some tractor beams, during an altercation in the [[asteroid belt]] when Star Saber investigated some starship disappearances and stumbled on yet another Decepticon plan. It proceeded to attack Hellbat while Star Saber was busy brawling with the rest of the [[Breastforce]], going on to attack the ''Thunder Arrow'' and the Dinoforce while the [[human]] prisoners were evacuated. {{storylink|A Fierce Battle!! The Asteroid}}

[[File:RescueGaihawk last second save.jpg|thumb|left||upright=1.4]]
When the Autobots visited the planet [[Micro]], the V-Star spent most of the time parked outside the capitol building. Star Saber sent it to assist the Rescue Team with evacuations, and they hurried to complete their work so that it could be returned to him and aid him in his battle. {{storylink|Planet Micro - The Mysterious Warrior}} Again displaying the advantages of an independent platform, Star Saber was able to save both Holi and [[Sixshot (G1)|Greatshot]] from falling into a pool of lava. {{storylink|Rescue! Guyhawk}}

[[File:AntarcticBattle swordfight on vstar.jpg|thumb|upright=1.4]]
During an aerial dual with [[Guyhawk]], Star Saber rode on the back of the V-Star and used his ''sword'' to strike at the Decepticon jet. Somehow this worked. Star Saber is just that awesome. {{storylink|Battle Up of Wrath!!}} The move worked so well that he did it again while battling against Deathsaurus in [[Antarctica]]. {{storylink|Fight to the Death!! Antarctic Battle}}

Perhaps getting wise to this, Leozak, Guyhawk and Hellbat used their [[Electromagnetic Nunchaku]] to attach a bomb to the rear of the V-Star. Star Saber transformed and tried to detach it to no avail — the bomb exploded in his face. The V-Star crashed, but the Breastforce attacked him anew, forcing him to combine with it in robot mode to face them. {{storylink| A Deadly Battle}} With the addition of [[Ginrai (robot)|Victory Leo]] to the team, the V-Star wasn't used as much independently, though Jan and the Micromasters were seen polishing it up before Star Saber left for a conference. {{storylink|A Mystery?! The Deception of the Base Bombs}}

===''Victory'' manga===
On one occasion, when [[Liokaiser]] had Star Saber and Jan in his grip, the Autobot leader took advantage of the fact that the Breastforce were busy arguing and separated from the V-Star, loosing the pair from the combiner's grip. Jan, in control of the V-Star, transformed it into a special battle mode, blasting Liokaiser while Star Saber whacked the Decepticon solidly with his shield. {{storylink|Star of Friendship, Jan and Star Saber!}}

===''Transformers '84''===
Surrounded by Deathsaurus' Decepticons, Star Saber summoned the V-Star to escape. As he flew off, the V-Star picked up on [[Ultra Magnus (G1)/Marvel Comics continuity|Ultra Magnus]]'s orders to return to [[Autobase]]. {{storylink|Secrets & Lies issue 3|Secrets & Lies #3}}

:The V-Star originally came with Star Saber's toy. In grand Autobot leader tradition, it transforms into a battle station which Saber can man, and then into a larger body with which Saber can combine, forming "Star Saber". Saber slots into the empty chest area of the V-Star body, with his normal robot head forming Star Saber's ordinary, unmasked head, which is the appearance he commonly employs in fiction when he is not in battle. His battle helmet, featuring an Optimus-Prime-style mouthplate, is connected to the V-Star, and can swing up to fit over Saber's head.

Much like [[Optimus Prime (G1)|Optimus Prime]], the [[Decepticon]] leader also continues to receive more toys than the average ''[[Transformers brand|Transformers]]'' character. While '''[[Megatron (G1)|Megatron]]''' doesn't have quite as many toys as his nemesis, he is one of ''at least'' [[Bumblebee (G1)|four]] [[Starscream (G1)|main]] characters that are guaranteed to get a new toy just about every year.

For the sake of finding an easy and definitive split from the main toy article, we have opted to make this page strictly for the various ''[[Transformers: Generations (toyline)|Generations]]''-branded toylines, as this appears to be the brand [[Hasbro]] will likely continue adding Generation 1 characters to for the foreseeable future.

*'''Megatron''' (Voyager Class, [[2012]])
**''Accessories:'' {{w|Katana}}, {{w|:Wakizashi|tanto}}
:''[[Transformers: Generations (toyline)|Generations]]'' Megatron is an Asian market and Toys"R"Us-exclusive redeco/retool of ''[[Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (toyline)|Revenge of the Fallen: N.E.S.T. Global Alliance]]'' Voyager Class [[Bludgeon (ROTF)#Voyager|Bludgeon]], sporting a new, smiling head. Megatron transforms from a Japanese {{w|Type 90 Kyū-maru|Type 90}} tank into a samurai-esque robot mode. He features a flexible plastic sword which is made out of a portion of the barrel of the tank's main gun, as well as a smaller dagger. The dagger can be stored in a sheath which is revealed from inside the tank turret, and both blades can be slotted in holes provided on the robot mode's left hip guard. The larger sword has a peghole at the bottom of the hilt; though it is specifically designed to allow the dagger's handle to fit in the base to form a double-bladed weapon, it can also fit any other accessory that uses [[5 mm post]]s. The post used to combine the swords remains unobstructed in vehicle mode, meaning you can attach the dagger to the end of Megatron's main tank cannon if you're feeling silly. He also has [[Mech Alive]] [[gimmick]]s in his thighs and turret: sculpted cylinders in his thighs rotate whenever his lower legs are rotated, and pulling his turret open makes a sculpted white "disc" at the center rotate while a scabbard for the tantō hinges over to the side and props itself up for use.

:The vehicle mode is one of the very few Transformer tank toys with rubber components to its treads. Portions of the tread links can unlock, allowing them to hang from the robot mode, while the wheels of the treads are integrated separately into the robot mode form itself. The treads still do not function realistically; small plastic wheels on the underside of the treads help the tank mode roll, as is standard with nearly all Transformer tank toys. On the plus side, the tank turret can be rotated a full three-hundred sixty degrees, as can the purple machine gun that sits atop the turret.

:Unlike the other uses of this mold, Megatron comes [[Packaging|packaged]] in robot mode holding his swords, with additional plastic and paper ties in the tray imperfectly holding his swords in position. Because they were packaged this way since they were shipped out of the factory, most Megatrons come with the swords being badly bent and warped in the box. Fortunately, the swords' blades can be mostly straightened by leaving them sheathed in their hidden scabbards. Straightening their ''hilts'' is a different matter, though.

:As a redeco of the ''Revenge of the Fallen'' Bludgeon mold, it is highly likely that Megatron is cursed with the same design fault as his brethren - the rubber treads break down over the course of years, causing them to corrode spots of plastic and leave melty gashes behind.

:This version of the mold was also used to make ''[[Transformers Cloud|Cloud]]'' [[Megatron (G1)/toys#Cloud|Megatron]], while the original version was redecoed into ''[[Transformers (2010 toyline)|Hunt for the Decepticons]]'' [[Banzaitron (TF 2010)#Toys|Banzaitron]], and differently retooled to make ''[[Transformers Timelines (toyline)|Timelines]]'' [[Overlord (G1)#Timelines|Gigatron]].

:Part of the fifth wave of 2012-onwards ''Generations'' Deluxe Class toys, ''Thrilling 30'' Megatron is based on [[Don Figueroa]]'s stealth bomber design from the IDW Publishing [[Heart Like a Wheel|''The Transformers'' vol. 1]] ongoing series (which resembles a Northrop Grumman B-2 Spirit). In robot mode, his wingtips detach to combine and transform into his [[Fusion cannon#Deluxe|fusion cannon]] (although it's actually designed after the [[rail gun]] this body was equipped with in IDW's comics, but of course Hasbro couldn't call it ''that'' on a toy's packaging). The cannon can peg into 5mm ports on his hands and forearms. This design was actually taken from an official pitch without Figueroa's permission and with no compensation to the artist, a fact he was rather sore about.<ref>[http://www.seibertron.com/energonpub/don-figueroa-designed-idw-s-stealth-bomber-megatron-but-wasn-t-compensated--t96022s0.php "So I read that this was being made into a toy? wow, and I thought only 3rd party companies take stuff without giving any notice, acknowledgement or compensation...

*'''Megatron''' (Leader Class, [[2015]])
**''Accessories'': Two guns (combine to form rifle), missile
:Part of the first wave of 2015 ''[[Combiner Wars (toyline)|Combiner Wars]]'' Leader Class toys, Megatron transforms from a robot heavily inspired by his Generation 1 animation model into a tank featuring working treads. He includes a sticker sheet featuring two each of Decepticon and Autobot [[insignia]] (the latter in reference to IDW's ''[[The Transformers: More than Meets the Eye|More than Meets the Eye]]''), plus stickers intended to replicate those on the original Megatron toy's chest and fusion cannon. Megatron also comes packaged with a collector's card featuring art from the initial release of the ''[[Transformers Legends (mobile game)|Transformers Legends]]'' mobile game. His box-back bio bears a superficial similarity to our wiki's article on [[Megatron (WFC)|another Megatron]]. He features a spark chamber hatch which is sculpted in likeness to the one seen in "[[Master Blaster]]". In a feature that goes undocumented in Megatron's instructions, his two combining guns can store underneath the rear of his alternate mode. Although the website description & the package billed the transformation as "15 steps", the toy actually has ''10'' steps. In keeping with that simplicity, his articulation is more limited than one might expect of a toy this size, with his restrictive knee articulation and lack of ankle joints making it tricky for him to stand in dynamic poses.

:In robot mode, Megatron's fusion cannon is on a pinned swivel, allowing it to be flipped in either direction, and appears to have been deliberately shaped to evoke the fusion cannon's traditional look no matter which way it faces. With the missile-firing tip backwards, the swivel piece allows the cannon to fold further out to the side, giving enough clearance for the arm to bend up to 90 degrees. In this configuration, the visible swivel piece matches the hexagonal detailing on the traditional cannon design, and a grooved dial sculpted into the cannon is slightly angled such that it perfectly matches the vertical position of the adjustment dial on the original scope/cannon. Of course, in that configuration Megatron can't shoot anyone with his missile, so where's the fun in that, you silly nerd?

:Select aspects of this design, such as the leg-mounted treads, the general transformation sequence and the tank alt-mode, were used to represent G1 Megatron in ''[[Transformers: Devastation]]''. The toy meanwhile was retooled into [[Megatron (Armada)/toys#Generations|''Armada'' Megatron]], which was released at the same time. This mold’s tank mode bears almost no specific resemblance to that Megatron’s original [[Armada]] toy, but in a concession to that character’s legacy, both versions of this mold feature Armada-style [[Minicon]] connection ports; a rarity in any year of the Generations toyline.

*'''Doomshot & Megatron''' (Voyager Class, [[2016]])
**''Accessories'': Fusion Cannon, Rifle, Doomshot Titan Master
:''[[Titans Return (toyline)|Titans Return]]'' Megatron transforms from robot to tank to plane reminiscent of his [[Megatron (G1)/toys#Machine Wars|''Machine Wars'' counterpart]] and back. Megatron comes with [[Doomshot#Toys|Doomshot]], a [[Titan Master]] who becomes his head. The G1 toy-accurate 'scrollwork' details on his chest and all Decepticon insignias (on his robot mode chest, jet nosecone, and tank tread cowling) are chrome-backed, factory-applied, low-quality stickers which are notoriously prone to peeling off at the slightest disturbance. As their chrome-backed nature clashes heavily with Megatron's otherwise unpainted torso, replacing them is recommended. His wing stickers are similarly metallic, but appear to adhere better and clash less with the figure's overall aesthetic.

:The fusion cannon is shown in stock renders to be solid black, while the final one is light grey plastic dipped in black paint with the posts left bare. His dark-grey plastic is nowhere near as dark as the stock renders shows, though it is still darker than the light-grey plastic.

:Like all Voyager Class ''Titans Return'' figures, he has a pair of pop-up parts to fill in the area around his head; in this case, a pair of missile racks. While it initially looks like his chest does not contain a pivoting assembly for better range of movement on Megatron's neck, there is in fact one hidden under the grey parts that form his robot mode collar that allow the missile racks and the Titan Master port to turn in either direction.<ref name="neck">[https://www.tfw2005.com/boards/threads/titans-return-voyager-megatron-and-doomshot.1092333/page-18#post-14975031 Detailed look on TFW2005.com]</ref> Due to the nature of his transformation it is possible to transform Megatron into tank mode without removing his head, though this leaves it completely exposed at the back of the tank.

:His fusion cannon can plug into the short barrel of the tank turret or the rifle/Titan Master vehicle weapon. In an undocumented additional feature, the rifle can be inserted into the front end of the fusion cannon. The fusion cannon can be mounted on his forearm or held by any figure with 5mm hands. It also has a peg hole that an accessory such as his rifle can plug into, with extra square peg holes specifically to hold the rifle in place. The tank cannon on his turret, while held in ''very'' hard by a pair of ridges and a 5mm post, can also be removed; it can be pegged in by its 5mm post barrel onto a peghole in Megatron's shoulder to recreate G1 Megatron's classic shoulder barrel.

:The instructions for robot-to-tank transformation suggest that you move his robot mode chestplate downwards into the collapsed jet position. It appears to have a clearance issue, with the chest protruding too far; leaving it in robot mode position will ensure there are no clearance issues. However, the chest ''can'' be made to fit better by putting it into position before transforming the treads, preventing the tread panels from getting in the way. Also in some copies of the toy, Megatron's left and right leg panels will randomly pop and stick out. This is especially prominent in tank and jet mode.

:Unsurprisingly, this mold was retooled into [[Blitzwing (G1)/toys#Titans Return|Blitzwing]], and redecoed into ''[[Street Fighter II × Transformers]]'' [[Megatron (G1)/toys#Street Fighter II × Transformers|Megatron]] <nowiki>[</nowiki>[[Vega#Toys|Vega]]<nowiki>]</nowiki>. Megatron would have been redecoed/retooled into [[Gutcruncher (G1)|Gutcruncher]] with a new Titan Master face for Doomshot as part of the "Action on Hydrus Four" boxset for BotCon 2017 that never came to be.

The sides of his gun mode are entirely cast in clear red plastic, his arms are a different shade of red plastic and there is red paint on the legs as well–in addition to the bright orange parts on both the tip of the barrel and the scope, just like the ''Classics'' figure. Whether by design or by accident, his deco strongly resembles the [[Toys"R"Us]] exclusive [[Nerf]] "[[wikia:nerf:Sonic FIRE|Sonic Fire]]" color scheme.

:''Platinum Edition'' Megatron was only available as part of a 2-pack with [[Optimus Prime (G1)/Generations toys#PEOSSOSF|Optimus Prime]], named "One Shall Stand, One Shall Fall" after Prime's famous line in the movie. In the United States and Canada, this set was officially released as an [[Amazon (website)|Amazon]] exclusive. It was also available in several of Hasbro's Asian markets (namely the Philippines and Singapore; it's currently unknown whether it was exclusive to any particular stores there or not). In Australia, it was sold at Myer stores, whereas in the United Kingdom, it was both sold at [[Toys"R"Us]] stores and available via Tesco's website (but never found in stores). Surprisingly, it was (and still is) a common find in Brazilian online stores.

:''[[War for Cybertron: Siege|Siege]]'' Megatron transforms from a G1 cartoon-esque robot to a <s>grizzly battle tank from the ''Command & Conquer'' series</s> Cybertronian tank and back! Megatron's robot mode is pretty accurate to the original cartoon, despite having a completely different altmode. He is armed with 2 weapons compatible with the [[C.O.M.B.A.T. System]], one of which is his trademark [[fusion cannon]] called the "D50-R35 Fusion Cannon". The other is the "HPR Telescopic Laserstrike Launcher," with two symmetrical blades facing the opposite direction, and can transform into a large sword resembling the sword included in the Takara release of the [[Megatron (G1)/toys#Generation 1|original Generation 1 toy]] and can be stored on his back. It can also be mounted on his back to resemble the gun barrel on the original cartoon model's back. Both can combine into the insanely large "NFM Particle Beam Megalauncher," which is meant to be held in his hands or over his head. Like his contemporaries in the ''Siege'' toyline, Megatron features 'battle damage' paint applications all over his head, chest, arms, and legs.

:[[File:TF-Generations-WFC-S-Voyager-Megatron-with-Soundwave's-Gun.jpg|left|thumb|200px|"Does this mean I'll turn back into a blaster?"]]
:Due to the way Megatron transforms, it's possible to rotate the turret 180 degrees and use the fusion cannon solely as the tank barrel, in the event one should lose the "Laserstrike Launcher" accessory; while not as aesthetically pleasing as the intended transformation, it still works.

:Megatron also suffers a slight design flaw: unlike with the left ankle, the right ankle's pivoting joint has a tendency to not lock back to its straight position once it is unlocked. The only way to amend this is by pressing the top end of the black plastic peg on the right foot. The light grey backpack/central front tank kibble also has a tendency to dislodge if his waist is moved left or right. Due to the Fusion Cannon's slightly longer post, the hand's dorsal panel slightly protrudes when in tank mode. [[Soundwave (G1)/toys#War for Cybertron: Siege|Soundwave]]'s additional gun can be slotted onto the back of the figure, perfectly mimicking his G1 gun barrel placement. Whether this was intentional or not is unclear.

:There is a message written in [[Cybertronian language|Cybertronian letters]] on Megatron's box art, which reads "RISE FROM THE SHADOWS". Megatron's pose in the instruction manual's front cover is based on the [[:File:Megatronguido.jpg|promotional artwork]] by [[Guido Guidi]].

:Amusingly, the first TakaraTomy (and later, Hasbro's secondary) stock photos of his robot mode depict him wielding the fusion cannon like a handheld weapon.

:Megatron was a notorious shelfwarmer, particularly in Asia, often unsold in large numbers.

:This mold was redecoed and retooled into multiple different Megatrons below.

In addition, the figure omits the paint on the shoulders and his launcher/sword, and the front tank tread panels are now grey.

:Promoting the ''Siege'' chapter of the [[Netflix]] [[Transformers: War for Cybertron Trilogy (cartoon)|''War for Cybertron Trilogy'' cartoon]], this ''[[War for Cybertron Trilogy (toyline)|War for Cybertron Trilogy]]'' redeco of ''Siege'' Megatron slathers the Decepticon leader in an ''extensive'' paint wash coating to represent accumulated grime and battle scars. Aside from the mold's usual weapons, Megatron comes with redecos of ''Siege'' Firedrive into "[[Pinpointer (G1)#Generations|Captive Pinpointer]]" and "[[Lionizer (G1)#War for Cybertron Trilogy|Captive Lionizer]]" with the original orange-and-grey color scheme, both with their own respective blast effects.

:Battle damage aside, Megatron's grey plastic is molded in a darker shade and his black plastic lacks any hints of brown. He also features metallic silver across his front on the silver sections, serving as a base for the battle damage. This Megatron features tighter ankle joints and a weakened snap, allowing for easier posing.

:Promoting the ''Kingdom'' chapter of the Netflix ''War for Cybertron Trilogy'' cartoon, Megatron is a minor redeco of the [[#War for Cybertron Trilogy|above]] Netflix ''Siege''-based Megatron, with blue highlights on the "HPR Telescopic Laserstrike Launcher" instead of red, and more accurate chest battle damage (albeit, to his appearance in the ''Siege'' and first half of ''Earthrise'' chapters). His silver paint is also a lighter shade while the other paint applications are a darker shade. The set includes the translucent purple "[[Skelivore#Toys|Fossilizer Skelivore]]", the [[Matrix of Leadership/toys#Spoiler|Matrix of Leadership]] on a bandolier, and a compound through which a buyer can dig to reveal two blue "Fire Blast" effects (redecoed from ''Earthrise'' [[Slitherfang#Toys|Slitherfang]] and [[Doublecrosser#Toys|Doublecrosser]]'s effects parts) and the [[AllSpark#War for Cybertron Trilogy|Allspark]].

:The Matrix bandolier can latch onto his robot mode chest or his tank turret, and the Allspark is compatible with the 3 mm effects part system, featuring a 3 mm port on one face and a shallow 3 mm post of its own on the opposite side. Skelivore can use the C.O.M.B.A.T. System/[[F.O.S.S.I.L. Technology]] to weaponize Megatron, with two official configurations, and their head specifically evoking Megatron's classic [[energon mace]].

:Much like previous Spoiler Packs, this set is in a windowless box designed to look like an ammo crate and features translatable [[Cybertronian language|Ancient Autobot]] inside the box. The lateral side of the package also features artwork of Megatron, reused from the ''Kingdom'' [[:File:Kingdom Golden Disk Megatron returns to pits.jpg|Wave 2 Golden Disk card]]. Compared to the previous [[Nemesis Prime (G1)#War for Cybertron Trilogy|Spoiler Pack]], the packaging itself uses less cardboard and tape and has two Decepticon-themed quotes as opposed to one Autobot and one Decepticon. The "spoiler" text reads "WITH THE MATRIX IN HAND / I CAN WIN THE ALLSPARK / AND USE IT TO RESHAPE / CYBERTRON IN MY IMAGE" and "TAKE THE MATRIX / MEGATRON THEN THE / ALLSPARK MAY IT HAVE / MERCY ON YOU", quotes from Megatron and Optimus Prime respectively from [[Kingdom episode 4|''Kingdom'' episode 4]], though Megatron's quote in the cartoon lacks "With the Matrix in hand".

:Megatron's renders in the instructions feature the battle damage from the first [[#War for Cybertron Trilogy|Netflix ''War for Cybertron Trilogy'' toy]], as opposed to the battle damage on this release. Also, the image showing the completely assembled second official weaponizer configuration in the instructions depicts the included effect parts being plugged onto the ends of the back-mounted cannons to simulate muzzle-flash effects; however, this configuration is impossible with the selected effect part mold types that were included with this set.

:As with other Netflix-series figures, this Spoiler Pack was exclusive to Walmart in Canada and the United States. This set was also available as a Kmart exclusive in Australia and was on [[Hasbro Pulse]] in the US and the UK in limited quantities.

:Released as part of the third and final wave of ''[[War for Cybertron: Earthrise|Earthrise]]'' Voyager Class toys, Megatron is a heavy retool of ''Siege'' Megatron that converts into an Earth-based tank while sharing a mostly identical transformation scheme (and parts, such as the thighs, feet, front of the upper arms, forearms, and various inner parts). Megatron also retains the "battle damage" paint his ''Siege'' figure featured, mostly focused around his legs and tank-body. Unlike the stock render, the rear half of Megatron's shoulders are molded in black plastic. Megatron also features a "D-16" marking on the left side of his tank body, a reference to his Japanese ID number.

:Like the ''Siege'' figure, Megatron's turret also doubles as a melee weapon, though it must be forearm mounted in order to use the blade. To try and reduce his alternate mode's resemblance to a H-tank, he has a [[Partformer|partforming]] piece that is attached between his shins, or onto the bladed weapon. Stock photography for the above ''Generations Selects'' redeco shows the melee weapon can plug into his back as a back-mounted cannon, much like his "G1" cartoon design, and the filler part can be a forearm mounted shield.

:The new tooling to keep his head/neck flap more secure can make pulling his head out while transforming him to robot mode ''very'' difficult; the strain of doing so can cause the ball joint socket to crack, and form stress marks on his cheeks. This can be remedied by pushing the flap up from beneath using the tabs on the filler/shield piece.

:Like all ''Earthrise'' toys, Megatron comes with an exclusive piece of a clip-and-save of a larger star map, along with a translucent red decoder. Megatron's piece of the map, aptly, is the labeled location of "[[Cybertron (planet)|CYBERTRON]]".

:The [[energon mace]] accessory was sold separately as part of the ''War for Cybertron Trilogy'' [[Centurion droid#Toys|Deluxe Centurion Drone]] set above. The mace is intended for ''Earthrise'' Megatron's newly molded hands, so keep caution for a breakage risk if used on ''Siege'' Megatron.

:"Combat Megatron", a ''[[Generations Selects (toyline)|Generations Selects]]'' add-on to ''Siege'', is a redeco and new head retool of the above Voyager Class mold in the arctic camouflage deco of the unreleased ''Generation 2'' [[Megatron (G1)/toys#CombatHero|Combat Hero figure]]. His new head tooling is seemingly based on the previous Legends Class ''Timelines'' figure, which was a redeco of a toy based on [[:File:ChaosTheory1 megatron symbol creation.jpg|his IDW pre-war miner design]] as debuted in ''[[The Transformers: Megatron Origin|Megatron Origin]]''.

:Announced at New York [[Toy Fair 2019]], this Megatron was an exclusive debuted at the regular Voyager price through the [[Hasbro Pulse]] website in the U.S. market.

**''Hasbro ID number:'' '''TT-GS09'''

:''[[Generations Selects (toyline)|Generations Selects]]'' Super Megatron is an extensive retool of [[Galvatron (G1)/toys#Titans Return|''Titans Return'' Voyager Class Galvatron]], with the Titan Master gimmick being removed. The figure is based upon illustrations by [[Ban Magami]] for [[:File:SuperAndUltraMegatron.jpg|Super Megatron and Ultra Megatron]] from the ''[[Battlestars]]'' story pages, and is capable of assuming the two robot modes and two alternate modes featured therein. Although not officially a part of the [[War for Cybertron Trilogy (toyline)|''War for Cybertron'']] toyline, he has a grand total of 19(!) [[5 mm post|5 mm ports]] distributed throughout his new tooling, making him more than compatible with the [[C.O.M.B.A.T. System]].

:Being faithful to the illustrations it is based upon, the figure has both a space gunship mode (dubbed the Super Jet mode in [[Super Megatron comic 1]]) and a triple-barreled tank mode (referred to as the Ultra Tank mode in [[Super Megatron comic 1]]). The figure comes with his signature fusion cannon, which forms the nose of his gunship mode and the turret of his tank mode. He also has a triple-barreled cannon, which is stored inside the fusion cannon, and can be accessed by unfolding the front of the cannon and opening it up from the bottom. The triple-barreled cannon is detachable from the fusion cannon, and can be wielded by Super Megatron as a handheld weapon if you so choose.

:As mentioned before, the figure also has two robot modes to represent Super Megatron and his upgraded Ultra Megatron form, which differ in forehead and chest detailing. In service to this, Super Megatron's forehead and chest can be swapped around between his two robot modes. The two robot modes are also distinguished by weapon configuration (the fusion cannon being closed for Super Megatron and open for Ultra Megatron, and Ultra Megatron also featuring the triple-barrelled cannon mounted on his right shoulder) and gunship mode wing arrangement (folded for Super Megatron and unfolded for Ultra Megatron).

:Original to the figure and its [[Super Megatron comic 2|accompanying fiction]], a third robot mode was also designed and given the name "Ultra Megatron Omega", formed by taking the figure in its Ultra Megatron robot mode and swapping its face out for a more monstrous one. This new face appears to be an amalgam taking cues from both his [[Megatron (Movie)|live-action film counterpart]]'s mask in ''The Last Knight'', as well as the face of [[Dark Nova]]. If one so wishes, he can take the [[Silver Matrix]] accessory included with Star Convoy's ''Generations Selects'' [[Optimus Prime (G1)/Generations toys#Selects|figure]] and plug it into this figure's left shoulder to replicate his initial appearance upon transforming into this form. The ''Selects'' [[God Neptune comic 2|Special Comic promoting God Neptune]] further introduces a ''fourth'' robot mode, Ultra Megatron Omega: Perfect Form, into which the figure can also be configured.

:A feature not mentioned in the instructions is that the lower part of his helmet is attached via a [[C joint]] on the neck, and can be removed to allow easier access to the forehead and face-swapping gimmick. This is particularly helpful, as otherwise there isn't much clearance for it to turn, and the swivel is fairly tight.

:Contrary to popular belief, this figure ''is'' in scale with ''Selects'' [[Optimus Prime (G1)/Generations toys#Selects|Star Convoy]].

:This toy was released exclusively through [[TakaraTomy Mall]] in Japan and an EB Games exclusive in Australia.

:''Airazor is a [[Maximal]] from the [[Beast Era]] portion of the [[Generation 1 continuity family|Generation 1]] [[continuity family]].''

[[File:Airazorbwcgi.jpg|upright=1.66|thumb|''Ladyfalcon'' just doesn't have the same ring.]]

Primarily used for recon and surveillance due to her aerial [[alternate mode]], '''Airazor''' (sometimes formerly '''Wing Saber''') is a great asset to the Maximal cause. She's calm and confident, but also adventurous and brave, with a healthy supply of dry humor. Her aerial skill in either mode, incredibly sharp eyesight and steady aim make her a dangerous opponent.

Due to the circumstances of her "birth", she sees [[Rhinox (BW)|Rhinox]] as something of an uncle-figure and [[Cheetor (BW)|Cheetor]] as the sibling she never had. She devotes most of her efforts, however, to taming the wild yet gentle [[Tigatron]]. She shares his love for the beautiful planet on which the Maximals are stranded, and it is on this planet where their destiny will be forever intertwined.

{{bigquote|She stoops to conquer!|Airazor|"[[Call of the Wild]]"}}

==Fiction==
===Toy bios===
Airazor was an "aerial reconnaissance expert" who could spot Predacon activity from 30,000 feet above. With her internal radar transmitters, Airazor could relay information to her Maximal comrades, including 3D "virtual reality maps" that pinpointed enemy locations. In terms of offense, she possessed [[cyberblade]]s and a [[photon rifle|photon cannon]]. However, her preferred method of attacking was slashing with her titanium-plated talons in beast mode. {{storylink|#Toys|Basic Class Airazor bio}}

With her [[Transmetal]] body after the [[quantum surge]], Airazor had become a warrior that inspired absolute fear in the Predacons, thanks to her deadly armor-ripping talons. Her post had been adjusted to sea reconnaissance, in light of her vehicle mode. {{storylink|#TM1|Transmetal Airazor Bio}}

After becoming a [[Transmetal|Metals]], Airazor's power surged! Airazor's dominion of the air became second to none, but the air warrior still preferred to avoid violence when possible. {{storylink|#TM1|Metals Airazor}}

[[File:The Spark Airazor.jpg|left|upright=1.55|thumb|The Maximals' Yellow Ranger.]]

Her [[stasis pod]] damaged upon crashing to [[Earth]], Airazor was able to come online due to the genius of [[Rhinox (BW)|Rhinox]] and the bravery of [[Cheetor (BW)|Cheetor]]. Rhinox deftly operated the stasis pod's controls and Cheetor offered up his [[locking chip]] to repair it. Immediately out of the pod, she outmaneuvered and destroyed [[Terrorsaur (BW)|Terrorsaur]]. Her aerial [[beast mode]], at the time, made her the only Maximal other than [[Optimus Primal (BW)/Beast Wars cartoon continuity|Optimus]] who could fly. {{storylink|The Spark}}

[[File:Airazortigatrontrigger.jpg|upright=1.1|thumb|Hasbro's ''The Falcon and the Winter Soldier'']]

She and Tigatron started to team up more frequently, a prospect Airazor seemed to welcome, but Tigatron preferred to work alone. Their first big adventure together came when a flying island paradise was discovered. The island, however, was covered in booby-traps which were triggered by the use of energy weapons. Airazor rescued Tigatron when he was ambushed by Predacons on the island, but she was damaged badly. {{storylink|The Trigger, Part 1}} Tigatron carried her on his back, refusing to leave her behind, and the pair worked together to avoid and overcome the island's traps. The island was ultimately destroyed, much to the sadness and outrage of Tigatron, and he would have secluded himself from the other Maximals further if not for Airazor's concern. {{storylink|The Trigger, Part 2}}

Soon after, the Predacons beat Tigatron to another stasis pod, reprogramming it and unleashing [[Inferno (BW)|Inferno]]. Airazor and Tigatron took turns helping each other, but once again, Tigatron insisted that he work alone. Airazor commented that sometimes you can be too alone. She was right, because after he tracked down [[Tarantulas (BW)|Tarantulas]] and destroyed the stasis pod, Tigatron got shot up a lot. Nearing death, Tigatron was saved by the arrival of Airazor and Optimus Primal. {{storylink|Spider's Game}}

During a Predacon attack on the ''[[Axalon (BW)|Axalon]]'', Airazor saved Optimus from plunging to his doom, but was herself so badly damaged she had to spend several days in the [[CR chamber]]. She emerged to find that the other Maximals had succumbed to their beast instincts through having to stay in beast mode constantly, as a result of the Predacons stealing the ship's [[rectifier coil]]. While Tigatron helped the Maximals, Airazor was able to infiltrate the largely deserted Predacon base and retrieve the rectifier coil. {{storylink|Call of the Wild}}

[[File:BeforetheStorm Airazor dropping off Rattrap.jpg|thumb|left|upright=1.34|If you barf, you're walking home.]]
After the Maximals were expelled from their base by the Predacons, aided by a [[Starscream (G1)|Starscream]]-possessed [[Waspinator (BW)|Waspinator]], Airazor alerted Tigatron to the situation. The pair joined in a ploy to retake their base, which involved an assault on the ''[[Darksyde (BW)|Darksyde]]'' under Starscream's leadership. {{storylink|Possession}} Airazor was part of the reinforcements provided when [[Rattrap (BW)|Rattrap]] and [[Dinobot (BW)|Dinobot]] were trying to find a cure for the [[energon discharge virus]] Rhinox was afflicted with. For some reason she felt the need to pose provocatively by Optimus's leg as the Maximals appeared on the scene. {{storylink|The Low Road}}

After the realization that the aliens who seeded their planet with traps and energon were returning to destroy it, the Maximals and Predacons entered a truce. Optimus Primal used Airazor to try to sneak Rattrap into the Predacon base to find out what [[Megatron (BW)/Beast Wars cartoon continuity|Megatron]] was up to, but Megatron, of course, found them on his scanners and politely asked them to leave. Unbeknownst to Megatron, the ploy was a decoy for Tigatron's infiltration. {{storylink|Before the Storm}}

[[File:Airazoraftermath.jpg|upright=1.4|thumb]]
The aliens arrived and a new [[Bio-Dome|alien structure]] was built, trapping Airazor, who was tortured. Optimus Primal forced his way inside, with the help of the Predacons, and traded himself to the aliens for Airazor. Rattrap dragged her from the structure, only for them to find themselves at gunpoint — the truce was over. The pair were able to use the activation of the structure's "termination sequence" to deal with the Predacons, before fleeing with the escaping Optimus. {{storylink|Other Voices, Part 1}} As one of the planet's moons was revealed as an [[Planet Buster|alien weapon]], the Maximals retreated to their base. There, Airazor and Rattrap caught [[Blackarachnia (BW)|Blackarachnia]] working on a stasis pod in the ship's hold, and Optimus was able to use it to destroy the Planet Buster, though at the cost of his own life. {{storylink|Other Voices, Part 2}}

[[File:OtherVists1 Airazor in vines.jpg|thumb|left|280px]|Hey look it's someone's fetish.]]
Airazor and Tigatron escaped [[Transmetal]]ization by the [[quantum surge]]. They attempted to stop Blackarachnia escaping, but were both knocked offline by Megatron. {{storylink|Aftermath}} After repairs, the duo left together to find the rest of the missing stasis pods scattered across the planet. {{storylink|Coming of the Fuzors (Part 1)}} While on their search, the two Maximals discovered not only a remarkably beautiful valley, but a strange plant. As the two looked into each other's eyes and held hands in quiet celebration, the plant transformed into another [[Vok]] device, and as they clasped hands, declaring their love to exist beyond the throes of death, the two were absorbed and shot into space. Cheetor arrived, but was too late, and loudly protested the loss of two of his best friends. {{storylink|Other Visits (Part 1)}}

[[File:OtherVictories BirthofTigerhawk.jpg|upright=1.4|thumb|Know that I am [[Razorclaw (Universe)|Razorclaw]]! Well, part of him. From another universe. It's complicated.]]

Airazor and Tigatron were kept in a form of stasis until near the end of the [[Beast Wars (event)|Beast Wars]], when they were merged into the powerful being [[Tigerhawk]]. Tigerhawk returned to Earth as the emissary of the Vok to stop the deterioration that the Beast Wars were causing to the timestream, his first act being to destroy the [[Darksyde (BW)|Darksyde]], sending the Predacons scrambling. Tarantulas managed to capture Tigerhawk and removed the Vok's influence from his frame (and absorbed it into himself), letting Airazor and Tigatron's [[spark]]s inhabit Tigerhawk's body. Tigatron's voice was dominant, but Tigerhawk's personality and mannerisms were an amalgam of Tigatron and Airazor's. {{storylink|Other Victories}}

Shortly afterward, however, Tigerhawk was killed in a standoff with the ''[[Nemesis (G1)|Nemesis]]'' after Megatron retrieved it from the ocean floor. {{storylink|Nemesis Part 2}}

Somewhere near the end of the first year of the Beast Wars, before the Planet Buster ignited the planet's energon, Airazor, Rhinox, and Cheetor overheard a battle between [[Fractyl]] and [[Packrat]]. Airazor ended up having to rescue Cheetor, who had darted off ahead of them and gotten blasted. After the battle was resolved, she and the other Maximals fled, pretending to be beaten by the timid Fractyl to increase his standing in Megatron's eyes. {{storylink|Ground Zero}}

[[File:TransmetalAirazor2.jpg|right|upright=0.85|thumb|WINGS UP WINGS DOWN WHO GIVES A CRAP]]
After the Beast Wars were over, [[Tarantulas (BW)|Tarantulas]], presumed destroyed, existed in a new, undead form that was fueled by his new Vok powers. The remaining Vok assembled warriors to end this threat, creating [[Primal Prime]] and giving new [[Transmetal]] bodies to the extant Sparks of Airazor and Tigatron. {{storylink|Primeval Dawn Part 1}} {{storylink|Primeval Dawn II}}

After awakening a stranded stasis pod containing [[Ramulus]], opening a second pod triggered an ambush by [[Spittor (BW)|Spittor]], [[Iguanus (BW)|Iguanus]], [[Razorclaw (BW)|Razorclaw]], and a reborn Transmetal 2 [[Ravage (G1)|Ravage]]. Airazor immediately saved Tigatron's life, knocking Spittor aside before Tigatron would have unwittingly come in contact with Spittor's body, covered entirely in [[cyber venom]]. This maneuver left her vulnerable to Ravage's gunfire, which knocked her out of the air. {{storylink|Primeval Dawn Part 2}}

The battle ended catastrophically, and Ramulus, Airazor, and Tigatron were forced to carry a critically-wounded Primal Prime back to the ''[[Ark (G1)|Ark]]'' after Tarantulas ripped the [[Matrix of Leadership]] from his chest. As Airazor and Tigatron conferred with the seemingly absent Vok, Airazor experienced great pains due to her battle wounds. But before she could explain, the ''Ark'' was under attack by Ravage and the Predacons. {{storylink|Primeval Dawn Part 3}}

{{note|Due to [[3H Productions]] loss of the convention license, "Primeval Dawn" was never completed. It is telling, however, that Airazor was not present in the subsequently-placed ''[[Transformers: The Wreckers|Wreckers]]'' storyline. "[[Wreckers: Finale Part II]]" even has Rattrap ask Tigatron where Airazor is now, but which Tigatron doesn't get to answer due to more pressing matters. In "[[Source:Ask Vector Prime/Sideways#July 6, 2015|Ask Sideways]]", [[Sideways (Armada)|Sideways]] claims that, as part of a long con, he saved her life by bonding her back into Tigatron.}}

====Razorclaw continuity====
In one splinter timeline of [[Primax 496.22 Alpha]], [[Silverbolt (Fuzor)|Silverbolt]]'s stasis pod landed far from the ''Axalon'', and without the aid of Silverbolt, Megatron slaughtered the Maximals. Left as the sole survivors, Tigatron and Airazor were then abducted by the Vok and then dispatched as Tigerhawk to end Megatron's machinations which threatened the Vok. Tigerhawk slew Megatron, but in the ensuing [[timestorm]] destroyed the universe anyway. Subsequently, [[Unicron]] abducted Tigerhawk to become one of his [[Minion of Unicron (Universe)|Minion]] generals. The renamed [[Razorclaw (Universe)|Razorclaw]] became one of Unicron's most feared Heralds; however, the noble influence of Tigatron and Airazor at times posed a problem for the evil Razorclaw. {{storylink|Abduction|Razorclaw's profile}} {{storylink|Ask Vector Prime#Facebook|Ask Vector Prime, 2015/08/07}}

====2006 IDW ''Beast Wars'' continuity====
[[File:Dawn-of-Predacus-Airazor-midbattle.jpg|thumb|250px]]
At the tail-end of the Great War, both [[Optimus Prime (G1)|Optimus Prime]] and [[Galvatron (G1)|Galvatron]] met their demise on the battlefield. In response, the [[Primal Council]] sought to broker peace negotiations with their enemies, enlisting Tigatron to this end. The 'bot who would one day call herself "Airazor" was one of the many soldiers tasked with guarding the Autobot peace officer as he headed into enemy camps on his mission.

Unfortunately, the first camp the group made contact with was headed by a renegade soldier going by the name "[[Megatron (BW)/Beast Wars cartoon continuity|Megatron]]". Rejecting the talk of peace outright, Megatron unleashed [[Predaking (G1)|Predaking]] onto his visitors, along with the other units under his command. "Airazor" was accosted by [[Waspinator (BW)|two]] [[Terrorsaur (BW)|fliers]], though she quickly defeated them both before rescuing Tigatron from Predaking. As the rest of the Autobots with them were slain, Tigatron argued with his rescuer over which one of them should head off to warn the Council of Megatron's incoming attack. Convincing him that she didn't need rescuing herself, and promising that she'd see him again someday, "Airazor" sent Tigatron on his way. But she stood little chance against Predaking by herself, and soon found herself in the giant's grip. Before Predaking could finish her off, [[transmatter]] started raining down on the battlefield, converting whoever it touched into a protoform. "Airazor" was one of the many affected by the transmatter, though her form was retrieved and safely stored within a stasis pod after hostilities had ended between Autobots and Decepticons. {{storylink|Dawn of the Predacus}}

As [[Magmatron]] surveyed the timestream, he witnessed several key moments in the Beast Wars. Among them was Airazor being helped up by a concerned Tigatron. {{storylink|The Gathering issue 1|The Gathering #1}}

After Tigerhawk's body was destroyed, the two sparks contained within split, regaining their individuality. The Vok then proceeded in bestowing upon Airazor a new Transmetal form utilizing a blank protoform. {{storylink|Transformers: Beast Wars Sourcebook|Beast Wars Sourcebook}}

====''Timelines''====
[[File:Airazorbwdawn.jpg|left|upright=1.1|thumb|Tiger, you just hit the jackpot.]]

Her name was Wing Saber. A routine reconnaissance mission went awry when Wing Saber was captured by the Predacon torturer, [[Steelgrave]]. Despite his array of fiendish devices and Bond-villain mentality, Wing Saber was able to elude Steelgrave and fight her way through his henchmen before retreating to her cloaked starship, the ''[[Chromia 10]]''. Although she escaped, Wing Saber bore the physical and mental scars from her encounter with Steelgrave for some time.

Later, she was assigned to rendezvous with a pair of Maximals named [[Crossblades (BW)|Crossblades]] and [[Stiletto (BW)|Stiletto]] for a new mission. In violation of the [[Pax Cybertronia]], a group of Predacons had been rampaging through the [[J'kozian sector]] and set up a troop manufacturing factory on the conquered world of [[Nibari]]. Holographically posing as barmaids, the trio inebriated most of Steelgrave's troops into stasis lock before proceeding into the factory. Their infiltration was cut short by a raid on the factory by the native Nibari population, led by [[Ritash]]. Wing Saber's group was forced to divert their mission in order to keep the organics from being completely slaughtered. They were actually doing well...at least, until the true leader of Steelgrave's Predacons made his presence known... '''[[Megatron (G1)|Megatron]]'''!

Wing Saber's crew evacuated with all due haste, taking Ritash of the Nibari with them. A reassessment of the situation was clearly called for. After a review of the history records, Wing Saber decided that the frequent quotations of "No Known Weaknesses" overlooked Megatron's infamous arrogance, and THAT was what they needed to exploit. The crew of the ''Chromia 10'' challenged Megatron to combat in full view of his subordinates, forcing him to agree in order to save face. During the ritualized combat, Crossblades noticed that the Mighty Megatron was nowhere near as invulnerable as history records indicated. Sensing a ruse, the Maximals concentrated their firepower and revealed "Megatron" was little more than an exo-suit run by his ex-lieutenant, [[Flamewar (G1)|Flamewar]]. With Flamewar revealed, and the drone troopers brought under the control of Ritash and his rebels, Nibari was well on its way to being freed.{{storylink|The Razor's Edge}}

[[File:Trazorsedge prologue.jpg|thumb|"I'm gonna deck you in the schnoz!"]]

Later, the Predacons who stole the [[Golden Disk (Voyager)|Golden Disk]] on Cybertron were being pursued by [[Tigatron|Unit 2]], who was granted clearance from the [[Maximal Defense Command Center]] to commandeer transport. Wing Saber was boarding the ''Chromia 10'', when Unit 2 approached and demanded use of it. Wing Saber at first refused, but suggested she was open to... persuasion. The call of adventure captured her interest, and instead of handing over the ''Chromia 10'' to Unit 2, she allowed him to hitch a ride, piloting it herself.

The ''Chromia 10'' intercepted the Predacons' ship, the ''[[Darksyde (BW)|Darksyde]]'', which was engaged in battle with the ''[[Axalon (BW)|Axalon]]'' and guarded by a [[Buzzsaw and Laserbeak's ship|mysterious third ship]]. During the ensuing firefight, the ''Chromia 10'' was badly damaged. [[Optimus Primal (BW)|Optimus Primal]] had Wing Saber and Unit 2's [[spark]]s remotely [[Spark core transfer|uploaded]] to [[blank]] [[protoform]]s in the Axalon's cargo hold, which saved their lives, but severely damaged their core mainframes. {{storylink|Dawn of Future's Past}}

Two weeks after Airazor was reborn on [[Earth]], she foiled a Predacon plot to launch an orbital platform despite Megatron's best efforts. {{storylink|The Razor's Edge}}

===''Beast Wars Metals'' manga===
[[File:AirazorBWMetalsManga01.jpg|upright=1.1|thumb|The manga kinda made it pret-ty dang clear where it stood on what gender Airazor should be.]]

Following the [[Quantum surge]], Airazor became a [[Transmetal]]. However, she was separated from the rest of the [[Maximal]]s and was locked outside of their base during [[Quickstrike (BW)|Quickstrike]]'s counterattack. As she flew in, [[Sentinel (BW)|Sentinel]]'s defenses began to fire at her. [[Rhinox (BW)|Rhinox]] attempted to shut Sentinel down, only to be stopped by [[Rattrap (BW)|Rattrap]], who warned him that Sentinel was the only thing protecting them from Quickstrike's [[Cobra Corps]] and [[Scorpion Corps]]. Rhinox brushed him aside and shut Sentinel down, anyway. Airazor, who had been shot by Sentinel, swooped in for a crash-landing. Rattrap, feeling somewhat guilty, dove to soften her landing. Not long after this, [[Blackarachnia (BW)|Blackarachnia]] breached their defenses and took out both Rattrap and Airazor without effort. Rhinox saved her some time and appeared to shoot himself in the head. Feeling her job was done, Blackarachnia left as Quickstrike destroyed their base.

From a small section of the base that had been protected by a forcefield, Airazor aided Rattrap and Rhinox in pulling [[Optimus Primal (BW)|Optimus Primal]]'s [[spark]] from [[unspace|transwarp space]]. As Rhinox brought his spark out from oblivion, Rattrap funneled it through a ray device while Airazor positioned a reflective dish. Primal's spark bounced off the dish and connected with his body (which was being held by [[Megatron (BW)|Megatron]] at his base, the ''[[Hindenburg]]''), resurrecting him as a Transmetal. Airazor, still injured from before, began to plummet to the ground. Primal rescued her, destroyed Megatron's drone army, and carried her off on his flying surfboard. Recovering, Airazor began to wonder where her "[[Tigatron]]-sama" was. {{storylink|Beast Wars Metals issue 1|Beast Wars Metals #1}}

Airazor next accompanied Rattrap and Optimus in investigating the remains of the ''Axalon''. She was attacked by [[Rampage (BW)|Rampage]], but escaped. Following Primal's orders, she and Rattrap used the ''Axalon''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s weapons to ignite undersea volcanoes that blasted Rampage into the sky. {{storylink|Beast Wars Metals issue 2|Beast Wars Metals #2}}

Later, she decided to search for Tigatron on her own. {{storylink|Beast Wars Metals issue 3|Beast Wars Metals #3}} She soon found him, but his mind had been taken over by Tarantulas. She linked her mind with Tigatron's and, after defeating Tarantulas in cyberspace, was able to free Tigatron's consciousness. Unfortunately, she wasn't quite fast enough, and Tigatron's mind-controlled body delivered a fatal blow that killed her. Seeing what he'd done, Tigatron held her in his arms and wept with grief. {{storylink|Beast Wars Metals issue 4|Beast Wars Metals #4}}

Tigatron eventually committed ritual suicide over what he'd done, only to be revived by the energies of the sparks released by the obliterated Rampage. Airazor was also among the revived, but as a mindless zombie. {{storylink|Beast Wars Metals issue 5|Beast Wars Metals #5}} She did battle with Tigatron, who did not want to fight the robot he loved. With no other option, Tigatron gave the evil Airazor one of his katana and knelt down. As the zombie-Airazor struck him with the [[sword]], Airazor's spark entered Tigatron's body. In cyberspace, the two embraced and vowed never to be apart again. As their sparks merged, they became [[Tigerhawk]]. {{storylink|Beast Wars Metals issue 6|Beast Wars Metals #6}}

===''Transformers Legends'' anthology===
When [[human]] archaeologists uncovered a cave filled with primitive language, [[Mini-Con]] [[Laserbeak (Armada)|Laserbeak]] translated it for them. The markings told of a time when the Maximals and Predacons crash-landed on prehistoric Earth, though the stranded Transformers were seen by the protohumans as gods. When one of the archeologists, [[Jessica Theist]], later touched one of the markings, she was bestowed a vision of the Maximals' and Predacons' battles. Among them, she noted a "falcon." {{storylink|Fire in the Dark}}

[[File:Airazorwhitheredhope.jpg|thumb|How Robin would have looked in Batman Beyond...]]

Airazor, sporting a purely Cybertronian form, became a resident of [[Axiom Nexus]] at an unknown point in time and the timelines. She joined the offworlders' [[Freelance Police Legion]] and also forged ties with their parallel organization, the [[Axiom Nexus Security Administration]] run by the planet's native Cybertronians, the [[Transcendent Technomorph]]s. Airazor eventually received authorization as an inspector in the Security Administration, giving her the rare (if not ''unique'') status as an officer for BOTH police forces in Axiom Nexus. Despite her official status, Airazor still enjoyed her vices, and was a frequent customer of the [[Widow's Cafe Cybertronian]] at the edge of the [[Heap]].

Airazor was involved in the first detaining of [[Jackpot (G1)|Jackpot]] and [[Hubcap (G1)|Hubcap]], after the assassination of [[Gutcruncher (G1)|Gutcruncher]] sent Axiom Nexus into chaos. She and [[Stungun (TransTech)|Stungun]] stood guard over the duo while awaiting [[Cheetor (TransTech)|Commander Cheetor]]'s arrival. As is often the case with femmes, she had absolutely no tolerance for Jackpot's sweet-talk. Upon his arrival, Cheetor dismissed Airazor to keep an eye on three "[[Transcendent|units of interest]]" who had recently come through Processing Central. He casually suggested she recruit some Freelancers as well to keep the surveillance less official, since it was technically out of their jurisdiction. Her departure served a double purpose, leaving a viable exit for the lowtech Autobots to flee and draw out the ''real'' assassin for the Security Administration. Once [[Black Shadow (G1)|Black Shadow]] and his shell were deactivated, Airazor swooped in and took Jackpot into custody again immediately. Despite his claims of having found a real connection, she was thrilled when Commander Cheetor expedited his deportation to [[Primax 207.0 Epsilon|a universe]] similar to his home universe. {{storylink|Gone Too Far}}

Shortly after her promotion to Inspector Airazor, the Maximal had occasion to drop in on her old friend [[Crystal Widow]] at the Widow's Cafe. It was hardly a social call, however, as Security Administration had been requisitioned by [[Demolishor (TransTech)|General Demolishor]] of the [[Military Police]] to conduct a serious investigation into some courier murders and the theft of unauthorized TransTech technology. One of Crystal Widow's regulars, [[Escargon]], had been pegged for the matter. Airazor tried to execute a quiet arrest, but General Demolishor's attention span and flair for the dramatic turned it into a decidedly UNquiet raid of the premises. Demolishor also executed Escargon on the spot while Airazor was attempting to gain control of the suspect.

In his zeal, however, General Demolishor hadn't thought to check if Escargon had the stolen property before shooting him. Sure enough, a thorough search by Inspector Airazor appeared to turn up no traces of the property on his person. Dejected, General Demolishor turned his frustrations on the clientele, particular several "mechanoids of interest" called [[G1 GoBots|GoBots]] who had arrived around the same time as Escargon. With some fast legalese, Airazor managed to talk Demolishor out of doing further damage to the bar or Crystal Widow's customers. After the good general departed, Airazor explained the seriousness of the situation — Escargon had stolen a set of [[transit pass]]es, official letters for TransTech black ops work that allowed unmolested access to any transwarp platform facility. Literally a "Get Out of Axiom Nexus Free" Card.

General Demolishor was not so easily deterred, though, and soon wound up battling Crystal Widow and the GoBots in the [[Heap]] until Airazor and Commander Cheetor arrived with the Security Administration. The general was quickly deflated when Cheetor told him he had informed [[Megatron (TransTech)|Commander Megatron]] personally about the issuance of these ''unauthorized'' transit passes, and the fact that Demolishor had lost them. Because the Heap was outside of Security Administration jurisdiction, the collar officially went to Airazor as a representative of the Freelance Police Legion.

As Demolishor was being led away, Commander Cheetor requested a private word with Inspector Airazor. In no uncertain terms, he ''very loudly'' did not say he knew she had swiped the passes while frisking Escargon, and did not tell her to make sure the passes were handed over to the GoBots. Reluctantly, Airazor did as she was not ordered to do and gave up her meal tickets. {{storylink|Withered Hope}}

Airazor and [[Nightscream (BM)|Nightscream]] were hired by Optimus Primal to work as office ladies at the [[Axalon Trading Company]]. Their tight skirts and overall cuteness mesmerized Rattrap... at least until Rhinox reminded him that they had no women on the payroll. {{storylink|Legends Vol. 4#The Gender Gap|The Gender Gap}} Later, Optimus Primal and [[Lio Convoy]] swooned over Airazor's cuteness as he fetched them tea for their meeting. Rattrap and Rhinox merely continued to curse the fact that Airazor was a man. {{storylink|Legends Vol. 5#The Gender Gap Part 2|The Gender Gap Part 2}} Hoping to get to the bottom of Airazor and Nightscream's genders, Rattrap and Rhinox proceeded to follow them to see which bathroom they'd use. Much to their confusion, they learned that their building had no ladies' room but an ''[[w:otokonoko|otokonoko]]'' room. {{storylink|Legends Vol. 9#The Bathroom Gap|The Bathroom Gap}}

For [[Christmas]], Airazor joined [[T-AI|Ai]] in donning skimpy Santa outfits and handed out toys to all the good little Transformers. {{storylink|Merry X'mas!!}} At another point, old man Rhinox's nostalgia became so powerful he was able to will the '80s back into existence, retrograding all modern technology into clumsy '80s counterparts. In the madness, Airazor's computer turned into a cruddy micro-computer that couldn't even connect to the [[Internet]]. {{storylink|Legends Comic: Bonus Edition Vol. 3|Bonus Edition Vol. 3}}

At work, Rattrap found himself emasculated at every turn, even by Airazor, who was bigger and stronger than he was. This led Rattrap to seek comfort in a dream sequence involving [[Swerve (G1)|Swerve]] and [[Tailgate (G1)|Tailgate]]. {{storylink|Legends Comic: Bonus Edition Vol. 8|Bonus Edition Vol. 8}}

When the amnesiac [[Windblade (G1)|Windblade]] used her charms to squat at [[Tigatron]]'s home, Airazor took issue with it, and the three ended up in a bed together, with Airazor trying to push Windblade away from Tigatron. {{storylink|Windblade Sequel}}

Following the destruction of their old office because of [[Metroplex (G1)|Metroplex]], the Axalon employees took it in stride and made Metroplex's city mode their new office. Airazor and Cheetor got scared when their [[Alpha Trion (G1)|mysterious janitor]] claimed to be from "the other world", assuming he meant the world of the dead. {{storylink|LG14 Ultra Magnus Prologue#The Mysterious Knowledgeable Grandpa Chapter|The Mysterious Knowledgeable Grandpa Chapter}}

Airazor was dressed up as a nurse and ready to go to a [[Halloween]] party with Tigatron and Windblade when they were interrupted by the trick-or-treating [[Blackarachnia (BW)|Blackarachnia]], [[Slipstream (Animated)|Slipstream]], and [[Nightbird (G1)|Nightbird Shadow]]. {{storylink|Legends Comic: Bonus Edition Vol. 17|Bonus Edition Vol. 17}}

Airazor also worked at a "little brother cafe" and was there when the manager, [[Starscream (BW)|Starscream]], explained to another worker, who was [[Starscream (Armada)/Cartoon continuity|another Starscream]], just what kind of cafe it was. While thinking back to the good times she'd had in the Legends Universe, Windblade remembered a time she'd hand-fed Tigatron at the cafe, something Airazor hadn't liked at all. {{storylink|LG-18 Armada Starscream Super Mode Prologue}} Following the hiring of the Autobot [[Headmaster (technology)|Headmaster]] from another dimension, Airazor told [[Chromedome (G1)|Chromedome]] that he still had to answer calls from customers despite being trapped in [[Butla]] at the time. {{storylink|Legends Comic: Bonus Edition Vol. 22|Bonus Edition Vol. 22}}

Airazor was among the coworkers bothered by Chromedome flying around the office on Moguru, {{storylink|Legends Comic: Bonus Edition Vol. 32|Bonus Edition Vol. 32}} and was seen on the sidewalks of [[Akihabara]] after it was rebuilt as Neo Akihabara City. {{storylink|Targetmaster Chapter Prologue}} When [[White Leo]] turned the people of the Legends World into [[Beastformer]]s to recruit them into his army, Airazor ended up with some [[#TM1|familiar armor]] and the name "Lucky Razor". {{storylink|Legends Comic: Bonus Edition Vol. 51|Bonus Edition Vol. 51}}

Airazor was a native of the planet [[Jungle Planet (colony)|Eukaris]], and was born from the [[hot spot (phenomenon)|hot spot]] inside the [[Titan (group)|Titan]] [[Chela]]. She abandoned [[Cloud Walkers|her tribe]] long ago so that she could be with her love Tigatron.

[[File:CombinerWars5-Eukaris.jpg|thumb|left|300px]]

When battling [[combiner]]s from [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]] briefly touched upon the planet, Airazor and Tigatron witnessed [[Optimus Maximus (G1)|Optimus Maximus]] battling against [[Devastator (G1)|Devastator]]. {{storylink|Windblade vol. 2 issue 6|Windblade vol. 2 #6}} They later investigated the huge footprints the combiners left behind. Tigatron wanted to report their discovery to the others, while Airazor disagreed. {{storylink|All That Remains}} They eventually sought out the advice of the seer Blackarachnia, who foresaw the reappearance of true Cybertronians on their planet. A week later, Airazor was present when the leaders of Eukaris's tribes convened outside the space bridge, although Dinobot didn't take kindly to the "tribe of two." The tension was quickly defused when Rattrap sneaked through the space bridge and onto the planet, only to receive a less-than-warm welcome from Dinobot.

A month later, Airazor was present when the first real representatives from Cybertron arrived - [[Windblade (G1)|Windblade]] and Starscream. Before negotiations could get underway, Chela awoke and burst from the ground, intending to destroy all Cybertronian intruders. After Chela was killed by Starscream, the citizens of Eukaris agreed to join the nascent [[Council of Worlds]]. Blackarachnia appointed Tigatron and Airazor as delegates to Cybertron, believing that their independence from Eukaris's competing tribes would make them impartial diplomats. {{storylink|Windblade vol. 2 issue 6|Windblade vol. 2 #6}} Upon emigrating to Cybertron, Airazor was amazed to find that she and Tigatron were being welcomed in spite of their romance, a feature she felt could potentially attract more Eukarians. {{storylink|The Chosen One}}

Approximately two weeks later, Airazor was present for the ceremony inducting [[Vigilem|Carcer]] delegates [[Obsidian (BM)|Obsidian]] and [[Strika (BM)|Strika]] into the Council of Worlds. {{storylink|The Will of the Few}} She and Tigatron began operating regularly on Cybertron, interacting with the local citizens and the other colonists. {{storylink|Choose Me}}

After [[Optimus Prime (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Optimus Prime]] announced his intent to annex [[Earth]] into the Council of Worlds, Airazor attended the first council meeting discussing this sudden change of events. {{storylink|New Worlds Order}} In-between Council meetings, the two Eukariens continued adjusting to life on Cybertron, quietly hoping that one day the growing number of immigrants could expand beyond the borders of Iacon. When the Council re-convened to discuss a string of mysterious [[Mnemosurgery|mnemosurgical]] assaults and the growing distrust of the [[Badgeless]], the two Eukarian delegates were in attendance. The Committee moved to have [[Ironhide (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Ironhide]] investigate the crime spree. {{storylink|07:00:00}}

[[File:ApplicableSkills-fangsandfur.jpg|thumb|left|300px]]

Things turned sour following the death of [[Drunkatron|an inebriated Decepticon]] which most chalked up to police brutality. Airazor and Obsidian observed an angry mob advancing on Starscream's office, as the two commiserated over their dismay with the fractured Cybertron. Shortly afterwards, Airazor attended the emergency meeting to try and sort out what could be done, a meeting that ended with Ironhide becoming the new head of Cybertronian security. {{storylink|Applicable Skills}} Airazor later attended a meeting where Ironhide reported on the progress of the new recruits. {{storylink|Things We Said We'd Never Do}} When [[Bruticus (G1)|Bruticus]] attacked Iacon, Airazor and the other Council delegates were temporarily evacuated. {{storylink|The Line Between Us}}

The Council later met with Optimus to hear his side of the story. Although Prime insisted that his intentions were pure, its members unanimously voted against allowing Earth a seat on the council. {{storylink|All Hail Optimus Part 3: The Medium and the Message|The Medium and the Message}} When Optimus raised a holy [[Metrotitan (G1)|Titan]] from the ground, however, public opinion began to shift back towards Optimus, and the Council began re-considering their ruling. {{storylink|All Hail Optimus Part 6: No Fair Fights|No Fair Fights}}

[[File:DesperateTimes-anythingforyou.jpg|thumb|right|250px|And the man shall ride a falcon.]]

Months later, [[Vigilem|Carcer]] detected a fleet of [[zombie]] Titans rapidly approaching Cybertron and intent on scouring the planet clean. The Council attended an emergency meeting to discuss the threat, and wound up preparing for an all-out war against the army. The Titans soon made planetfall; Airazor and Tigatron fought together on the front lines and used their [[beast mode]]s to tear through enemy armor. {{storylink|Ping}} When it became clear that they couldn't win, the two retreated back to the Council [[Spire]] to discuss a last-ditch moves. As a result, both Airazor and Tigatron joined Windblade's strike team, aiming to invade Carcer and seize control of the Titan from its reluctant leader [[Elita One (G1)|Elita One]]. {{storylink|Desperate Times}}

Airazor stood by Starscream as the strike teams attacked making odd faces at the Chancellor's odd habit of [[Bumblebee (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|seemingly talking to himself]]. {{storylink|Desperate Measures (Till All Are One)|Desperate Measures}} After Windblade and Carcer had triumphed, she joined Starscream and [[Knock Out (G1)|Knock Out]] in cheering. {{storylink|Rubicon}} It transpired however that "Carcer" was in fact, Vigilem, the Titan of [[Liege Maximo]] who had managed to free his master before he died. The Council was informed of the Prime's inevitable return but only after half of them had already voted to keep it secret and forced the other half to do the same, much to Airazor's discomfort. {{storylink|The Chosen One}}

When the crisis had passed, the Council reconvened to meet with Optimus Prime as the Autobot leader discussed sharing Transformer technology with the [[Junkion (species)|Junkion]]s, who had recently arrived on Earth. Starscream shot down the proposal; as Earth was not yet a member of the Council, it would be a violation of the [[Tyrest Accord]]. {{storylink|New Cybertron Part 3: Behind My Bleeding Back|Behind My Bleeding Back}}

Airazor was present during Earth's induction ceremony into the [[Council of Worlds]] when [[M.A.S.K.]] and [[G.I. Joe (team)|G.I. Joe]] was brought before the Council where Elita One ordered them executed. When Knock Out supported the notion owing to the looming threat of Liege Maximo and the short [[human]] lifespan, Airazor protested owing to the fact that, regardless of lifespan, the humans were still living creatures. {{storylink|First Strike issue 4|First Strike #4}}

Following the invasion, Windblade was due to retake her position on the Council only to learn that Liege Maximo's freedom was still being kept under wraps prompting her to inform Circuit and Longtooth of it which resulted in public elections. After the Camien had announced her intent to run for office, Airazor visited Windblade in [[Maccadam's Old Oil House]] where she extolled the values of Cybertron's acceptance of 'bots from all walks of life and how that feature could attract more Eukarians (assuming of course Iacon could last five minutes without being half destroyed). She and Tigatron later attended the electoral debates and took part in Windblade's subsequent victory party. {{storylink|The Chosen One}}

The Council later assembled to receive an [[Ore-13]] from Optimus Prime before [[Shockwave (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Onyx Prime]] and [[Liege Maximo]] made a dramatic return aboard the [[Nemesis (BW)|''Nemesis'']]. {{storylink|The Falling, Chapter 1: Surfeit of Primes|Surfeit of Primes}} Joined by [[Alpha Trion (G1)|Alpha Trion]], the Council granted the Primes an audience. After an explosion ripped through the [[Spire]], Airazor helped up Tigatron only to learn Alpha Trion had been killed by the blast. {{storylink|The Falling, Chapter 2: Another Mine|Another Mine}} "Onyx Prime's" machinations had successfully sowed chaos across Cybertron, leaving the Council of Worlds paralyzed and unable to act for the duration of the crisis, and by the time that "Onyx" had been unmasked as a time-travelling Shockwave and arrested, the Council was too late to stop the penultimate stage in Shockwave's plan from falling into place: [[Unicron/Generation 1|Unicron]], who began a genocidal rampage across the galaxy. Shortly after the planet-eater destroyed Eukaris, Airazor joined the other members of the Council of Worlds in an emergency meeting to discuss the situation. {{storylink|Stranger Eons}}

When Unicron then attacked and destroyed Cybertron, Airazor and Tigatron were among the many refugees who were safely teleported to [[Earth]] by the [[Visionaries]], regrouping at [[Victoria Falls]]. {{storylink|A Sunrise Dark}}

Airazor of [[Nuon City|Nuon]] was a champion of the Games who eventually came to sit on the [[Maximal High Council]]. She sat on the Council when the [[Maximal Nation]] declared themselves independent from [[Builder of Cybertron|Builder]]s and the [[Resistance]] alike. When the [[Vehicon (BM)|Vehicon]] threat arose and consumed Nuon, however, Airazor advocated abandoning neutrality and entering the war against the Builders. She frequently clashed with the pacifist [[Santon]], comparing him to a [[wormozoid ]]. When the Council received an audience by First Resistor [[Cheetor (BW)|Cheetor]] and [[Preditron]] to hear first hand about the Vehicons, the vote soon swayed in Airazor's favor, and the Maximal Nation went to war.
In the battles to come against the Vehicons and the [[Grand Mal]] fortress, Airazor fought as part of [[Magnaboss (BW)|Magnaboss]], joining with her fellow Councilbots as a battlefield general. They fought alongside the [[Micromaster]] Builder combiner [[Devastator (G1)|Devastator]] against all odds.

After the war, the [[Cybertronian Parliament]] was founded to govern the planet. The Maximal Nation remained an independent body, and the High Council elected Airazor to serve as their representative at Parliament along with Cheetor and [[Optimal]]. {{storylink|Derailment}}

[[File:BW-toy AirazorBasic.jpg|upright=1.66|thumb|Sharper than a cyber-razor cut!]]
*'''Airazor''' (Basic Class, 1997)
**''Takara ID number'': '''C-10'''
**''Accessories'': Blaster

: Part of the first wave of [[Hasbro]]'s second-year ''[[Beast Wars: Transformers (toyline)|Beast Wars]]'' Basics, Airazor transforms into a somewhat generic falcon (or some other bird of prey) with opening beak. Unlike first-year Basics, Airazor's transformation is entirely manual rather than spring-loaded, and therefore a bit more complex. Pulling on the yellow-plastic feathers near her tail activates a spring-loaded wing-movement gimmick. Each wing also has a flip-out blade, giving her a pincer-attack when used with the wing flappy-flappy. Her tail hides both a heat-sensitive "[[rubsign|energon chip]]" and a non-firing blaster that can be hand-held or mounted on the underside of either forearm.

: There is an ''exceedingly'' minor [[retool]]ing variant of this toy, where later releases added small grooves to the inside of the falcon-mode head, allowing for easier installation of the lower beak.

: The [[TakaraTomy|Takara]] release of the toy in January 1998 is seemingly identical to the Hasbro release, except (of course) for packaging.

**''Accessories'': Blaster

: The original Airazor toy was given a similar but darker [[redeco]], and packaged with a VHS tape containing the episodes "[[Aftermath]]" and "[[Coming of the Fuzors (Part 1)]]". She retains all of her previous [[gimmick]]ry.

*'''Airazor''' (Deluxe Transmetal, 1998/1999)
**''Takara ID number'': '''C-45'''

: Part of the third wave of Hasbro [[Transmetal]] Deluxes, Airazor transforms from a semi-organic robot into a mechanical falcon. She has a third "seaplane" mode with fold-down pontoons and exposed thruster engines. In robot mode, the chromed beast-mode backplate can fold around her torso as a "shield" mode. She holds the distinction of being the first [[female Transformer]] toy that was actually designed to be female from the start.

: Some early releases of the [[Hasbro]] Airazor have much more lavender-hued chrome than the normal blue of later versions.

: The Takara version of this toy, released in the first wave of ''Beast Wars Metals'' product, has more orange-tinted yellow plastics, and the pearlescent whites are more translucent white. The "AIRAZOR" [[tampograph]] on the Hasbro version's chromed shields was also changed to "CYBERTRON" with the Maximal [[insignia|faction symbol]]. The Takara version's chrome is also far less prone to flaking than the Hasbro version.

: A popular "fan mode" of the toy has the pontoons raised over her shoulders in robot mode, with the support struts pointing forward like cannons, giving her some ranged weaponry.

: This mold was also used to make ''[[Transformers: Armada (franchise)|Armada]]'' [[Airazor (Armada)#Toys|Airazor]].

This redeco was not as drastic a change from the original as the others in the series, mostly making her darker and more desaturated tones of the same colors.

:Released to commemorate the 25th anniversary of ''[[Beast Wars: Transformers (franchise)|Beast Wars]]'', ''[[War for Cybertron: Kingdom|Kingdom]]'' Airazor transforms from a ''[[Beast Wars: Transformers (cartoon)|Beast Wars]]'' cartoon-accurate robot into a realistic peregrine falcon. Said beast mode is more posable than it has ever been with past toys, with multiple joints in her wings, legs, and head, including an opening beak. She includes two weapons based on the arm-mounted talon missiles she used in the cartoon which can also be held in her hands and store on her beast mode rear. Oddly, Airazor's colors are much lighter than that of her appearance in ''Beast Wars''.

:Airazor's stock photography depicts an additional robot mode, with an extended torso, open wings, folded-down shoulder pads, and her falcon head and robot head switching places. The renders on her packaging also feature an inconsistancy; the render of her robot mode showcases a Maximal sigil on the chest/the neck of her Falcon mode's head, which is absent in the actual falcon mode's render and the figure itself.

:The multi-hinged segments in the middle of Airazor's wings are prone to developing stress marks if excessive force is used. Most notably this can happen when unfolding her wings from the packaging, as they are folded in a reverse manner contrary to the hinge design in order to fit them into the cardboard insert. Please take extra care unfolding them the first time.

:Much like most of the toyline, Airazor comes with one of four possible holographic [[Golden Disk (Voyager)|Golden Disk]] cards for her wave, which reveals a [[Source:Golden Disk destinies|possible destiny]] of a key character.

:Airazor was later retooled as ''Kingdom'' [[Skywarp (BW)#Generations|Maximal Skywarp]].

==Gender==
[[File:AirazorJapan1.jpg|right|175px||thumb|[[tvtropes:Main/ShesAManInJapan|She's a man in Japan]]]]
Airazor's gender in the [[Hasbro]] line is due to ''Beast Wars'' story editors [[Bob Forward]] and [[Larry DiTillio]]'s insistence. The original Airazor toy wasn't developed with a specific gender in mind, and Bob & Larry wanted a larger female presence in the show, and the Airazor toy seemed as good a choice as any. They requested the change early enough that the toy's packaging bio could have its pronouns changed to female. The later Transmetal version of Airazor was the first American-released Transformer mold created to represent a female character.

In the Japanese dub of ''Beast Wars'', Airazor was made male. The exact reason for this has never been made known; it could have been for the sake of sales (girl characters tend to sell poorly in boys toylines) or [[TakaraTomy|Takara]] could have simply been working from outdated material provided by Hasbro in which Airazor was still regarded as male. We may never know.

Initially, the dub skirted around any possibility of romance between Airazor and Tigatron, altering all flirtatious dialogue to change the intent (Tigatron's line in "[[The Trigger, Part 2]]" about how "the lady shall ride a tiger" was rewritten to a more generic command for them to get moving). To explain the closeness of their relationship, Tigatron was humorously portrayed as a "samurai retainer" and Airazor acted as his "ward"; intimating a "brotherly" sort of bond.

Things remained as such all the way until "[[Other Visits (Part 1)]]" when the scripting and animation could no longer allow for any vagaries regarding their relationship. Beginning rather randomly in that episode, Airazor flirtatiously starts calling Tigatron by the nickname "Ti-chan", leaving Tigatron to get flustered and anxiously call for him to stop. When the pair are attacked, they both express their love for one another in dialogue primarily unchanged from the English version. Their romantic attraction was a very spontaneous change in the Japanese version of the series and Japanese magazine editors, responding to letters from confused young fans, gently explained the situation. From the letters page of the ''Beast Wars Club'' magazine:<ref>[http://netatama.net/lite/image/2263677 Scan] of the letters pages from a Japanese ''Beast Wars Club'' magazine</ref>

[[File:BWM Airazor color.jpg|left|thumb|175px|Except when she isn't.]]
:'''Question:''' "If Tigatron and Airazor are both boys, how come they were flirting when the [[Vok|Aliens]] abducted them?"
:'''Answer:''' "Even among humans there are boys who both love (like) each other. In the case of Tigatron and Airazor, they had been fighting together for a long time and as their emotions increased, their friendship turned to feelings of love. 'Transform', indeed!"

In the case of the ''[[Super Lifeform Transformers: Beast Wars Metals (manga)|Beast Wars Metals]]'' manga, however, Airazor's female gender was retained, as was her heterosexual romantic relationship with Tigatron. This was due to the fact that Airazor's [[Transmetal]] toy had an indisputably feminine build. Additionally, there was never a manga for the original ''Beast Wars'' cartoon in Japan, so the backstory for ''Metals'' could be whatever writer/artist [[Shōji Imaki]] wanted it to be (the manga has numerous irreconcilable divergences from the show's events right out of the gate). Airazor is presented as a stereotypically "girly" ingenue more deeply devoted to Tigatron, as compared to her English cartoon persona and design.

The ''[[Transformers Legends (comic)|Transformers Legends]]'' manga would poke "fun" at Airazor's gender bending from time to time. Airazor is portrayed as looking highly feminine and cute, however, it is revealed to the confusion of the cast that "she" is male. The same "joke" is extended onto [[Nightscream (BM)|Nightscream]], who was portrayed as a flamboyant homosexual in the dub of ''[[Beast Machines: Transformers (cartoon)#Japanese release|Beast Machines]]'', and is seen as a cross-dresser in the ''Legends'' manga. This is apparently supposed to be "funny".

==Notes==
*An [[Bitch Wars|unproduced ''Beast Wars'' episode concept]] would have seen Airazor and Blackarachnia join forces as a "third faction" for a bit. It went unproduced as the writers couldn't see where to go with the idea.
*Like most characters in the Japanese dub of ''Beast Wars'', Airazor was given a verbal tic—when in battle or transforming, [[#Gender|he]] would shout ''haya'' in imitation of a falcon's cry (''hayabusa'' also being the Japanese word for "falcon").
*Somewhat inexplicably, a number of the Italian toyline-specific names for various ''Beast Wars'' characters were only printed on the cardback for the Italian "video-pack" release of Airazor; the names do not even appear on the cardback for "video-pack" [[Razorclaw (BW)|Razorclaw]], who was presumably released in proximity to her, if not at the same time. The Italian names only printed on "video-pack" Airazor were: Insector ([[Powerpinch]]), Rapax ([[Lazorbeak]]), Vortex ([[Drill Bit (BW)|Drill Bit]]), Anfibius ([[Spittor (BW)|Spittor]]), Diablo ([[Snarl (BW)|Snarl]]), Cannibal ([[Manterror]]), Tenax ([[Retrax]]), Dingo ([[K-9]]), and Bison ([[Bonecrusher (BW)|Bonecrusher]]).
*The name of Airazor's ship in "[[Dawn of Future's Past]]", the ''[[Chromia 10]]'', is a reference to her original toy's Japanese ID number.
*The "Dawn of Future's Past" Club exclusive toy is only technically the second Club exclusive toy. She was actually shipped at the same time as [[Astrotrain (Cybertron)|Astrotrain]], but he was the first toy advertised.

As such, he features numerous unavoidable inaccuracies, such as not transforming or even looking very much like the original design or the larger toy versions in [[robot mode]]. However, proportionally Legends class Optimus Prime is not far off from the real truck and the Leader class toy's [[alternate mode|vehicle mode]], aside from missing a smokestack on the driver's side. He is articulated at the shoulders and upper legs via [[ball joint]]s. He can also hold small weapons, such as [[Cyberverse (toyline)|Cyberverse]].

:The toy was also later released as part of the blind-packed EZ Collection lineup, distributed via TakaraTomy's subsidiary Subarudo.

*'''Protoform Optimus Prime''' (Deluxe Class, 2007)
**''TakaraTomy ID number:'' '''MA-05'''
**''Accessories:'' Gun, missile, flame attachment

:Based upon the "[[Protoform]]" (Cybertronian) appearances of the Transformers in the Movie, Protoform Optimus Prime transforms into his "entry" mode. This mode somewhat resembles a cybertronic truck, with false wheels sculpted onto the sides, and Optimus Prime's trademark windows in front. A flame decoration piece fits to the back of the "vehicle", creating the illusion of a flaming comet's tail. The bottom of the vehicle has small wheels to roll the toy across smooth surfaces. Oddly, it has NO [[Automorph Technology|automorph]] gimmick at all, a feature most main-line figures have.

:He resembles previous Optimus characters in robot mode: his angular chest windows are reminiscent of ''[[Transformers: Cybertron (franchise)|Cybertron]]'' [[Optimus Prime (Armada)|Optimus Prime]], while his near-animalistic limbs and color scheme are evocative of ''[[Beast Wars: Transformers (franchise)|Beast Wars]]'' [[Optimus Primal (BW)|Optimus Primal]]. He has excellent articulation due to his many ball joints, and is armed with a rifle. The flame attachment can fit onto the end of the (non-firing) gun barrel.

:Some packaging variants of this figure (perhaps a Wal-Mart exclusive) included a free movie poster depicting a Cybertronian eye overlooking Earth, with an added sticker to the outer plastic bubble saying "Exclusive movie poster!". It is more of a preview of upcoming figures.

:This toy was [[repurposing|repurposed]] as a [[Prima|member]] of the [[Dynasty of Primes]] in [[Tales of the Fallen issue 4|''Tales of the Fallen'' #4]]. His alternate mode served as a basis for the [[Vok|Vok Novaroids]] for [[The Road to Legends' Revival Chapter 5: LG-EX Big Powered Prologue Part Two]].

*'''Optimus Prime''' (Voyager Class, 2007)
**''Japanese Name'': '''Twin Blaster Optimus Prime'''
**''Japanese Release Date'': [[2007]]-[[Calendar|8]]
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''MA-13'''
**''Accessories:'' 2 rifle/smokestack-fuel tank assemblies, 2 missiles

:The mid-range Voyager class ''Movie'' Optimus Prime toy transforms into an amalgamation of the Kenworth W900 and the Peterbilt 379, making this toy fairly inaccurate to the actual vehicle Optimus Prime turned into. Because of the smaller size and lessened complexity, the Voyager class Optimus Prime features a significantly different transformation sequence compared to the Leader class toy, and indeed, the actual CGI design. However, as the actual truck cabin no longer forms his chest, the cabin now features a small interior with opening doors and a non-removable [[Peter Cullen|cowboy-hat-bedecked driver figurine]] that flips out of the seat when the driver's side door is opened.

: In robot mode, Voyager class Optimus Prime is proportionally more accurate to his CGI design than the leader class toy and has a more accurate headsculpt. However, due to the aforementioned lessened complexity, significant sacrifices had to be made, such as "cheats" to the transformation sequence to achieve this. He is thus less accurate overall than he initially appears. In addition to previously mentioned changes, he carries much of the truck's front hood, grill and fenders on his back like a backpack. Nevertheless, he maintains a superb level of articulation and posability.

: Optimus Prime is armed with two large rifles formed out of a combination of both smokestacks and fuel tanks. These rifles peg onto his lower arms with grips for his open hands. The under-slung fuel tanks can fire spring-loaded projectiles. In vehicle mode, both smokestack rifles can be deployed as twin cannons, and this mechanism can also be used to store the rifles and deploy them as shoulder guns in robot mode.

: A Target-exclusive redeco of the Voyager Class Optimus Prime toy, this limited edition version boasts a "Supermetal finish", resulting in silver metallic paint covering much of his paintable gray/silver plastic, a much higher contrast in his red and blue plastic colors and improved 'flame' paint decorations.

: Unusually for the smaller Voyager Class of toys, [[Robo-Vision]] Optimus Prime comes packed in robot mode in a special hexagonal column box with many windows, similar to the original packaging for ''20th Anniversary'' Optimus Prime. The package also includes a Robo-Vision Decoder. Strangely, this Target exclusive preceded the release of the regular Voyager by a large margin, coming out on [[June 2]], 2007 with the initial wave of movie toys.

: This toy has been retroactively declared part of the ''Premium Series'' of more [[Show-accuracy|movie-accurate]] redecos of core characters from the movie.

:All international versions came in the same packaging, but lacked the "Only at Target" sticker.

:A gold-chromed version of the Voyager Optimus Prime toy was available as part of the same Lucky Draw contest as the Golden Protoform Optimus (see above) in the December 2007 issue of ''TV Magazine''. Limited to only 3 pieces, it is insanely rare. The photographed sample here features a chromed truck grill, while a boxed unit has an unchromed grey grill; the owners of both pieces, the Mapes Brothers of [http://www.transformertoys.co.uk/ Transformers @ The Moon], believe both are genuine TakaraTomy toys, so it unsure if the one with the chromed grill is a testshot or a production variant.

: Released as part of the ''Allspark Power'' refresh of the movie line, First Strike Optimus Prime is an extensive redeco of Voyager class Optimus Prime in a colour scheme based upon ''Generation 1'' and ''Classics'' Optimus Prime. The included toy bio describes this coloring as Prime paying tribute to the markings he wore as a young soldier when the war began. Due to the [[transformation]], this figure actually ends up being ''less'' like its G1 counterpart in robot mode, a sacrifice made for the slavish redeco of the vehicle mode.

*'''Optimus Prime''' (Leader Class, 2007)
**''TakaraTomy ID number:'' '''MA-01'''
**''Accessories:'' Removable Ion blaster, 1 missile

:The largest 2007 ''Transformers'' movie Optimus Prime toy, Leader Class Optimus Prime featured, at the time, the most accurate representation of the CGI designs' complex transformation sequence. He transforms into a heavily-customized [http://www.peterbilt.com/index_gal_mod_desc.asp?model=model379 Peterbilt 379] conventional extended-hood, and unusually for a mainline figure, he has rubber tires on all his wheels. His [[Ion blaster]] weapon is stored in the rear of the truck's bunk, exposed like an engine block. Though Optimus has no trailer, he has a hole where the fifth wheel hitch is sculpted in the rear of the truck, should owners find a suitable trailer to use. Due to [[For safety reasons|safety reasons]], the tips of his long smokestacks are made of rubber. A switch on top of the cab roof activates horn sounds and window lights.

:Featuring a complex transformation, the front and back ends of the truck essentially fold and converge to become Optimus Prime's legs, as much of the truck rear is connected to the robot thighs via a series of folding panels. The rear wheel cowlings feature a hinge joint in the middle of them so they do not impede his knee articulation. The halves of the rear cabin of the cab, directly connected to the smokestacks, rotate and connect to his torso and unfold into his arms. As with most mainline Movie toys, Optimus Prime features [[Automorph Technology|Automorph]] gimmicks, and due to his price point, he has three of them. Firstly, during initial transformation, rotating his front fenders to become his heels flips the top parts of the grill to become his toes. Secondly, sliding out the double-barrel cannon in his right forearm flips out his spring-loaded Ion Blaster, which lands into place for his right hand. (The Ion Blaster can actually be popped off his forearm fairly easily, as it is held in place by a simple clip.) Optimus's final Automorph, located in his torso, is activated by flipping the silver lever on his stomach, activating a series of spring-loaded actions where the truck windows are pushed apart and the lever between them is raised, enabling the head to spring up from the chest cavity. At this point, yellow LEDs light up the chest windows and Optimus Prime's eyes, accompanied by a "powering up" sound effect.

:Optimus Prime has a wide range of articulation for a relatively bulky figure. He has ratcheting joints in his shoulders, elbows, hips, and knees, with swivel joints and ball joints supporting them in his biceps, lower knee joints, and ankles. His hands even have individually articulated fingers and thumbs!

*'''Optimus Prime''' ("Premium Series" Leader Class, 2008)
**''Accessories:'' Detachable, Retractable "energy sword"

:The Premium Series Optimus Prime is both a [[retool]] and a redeco of the Leader Class Optimus Prime toy. The major selling point is a more movie-accurate head sculpt with longer ears and detailing based on the final CG head design, and a flip-out energy sword to replace the ion blaster that was included with previous versions of the toy. This energy sword is detachable and attaches where the Ion Blaster did, compatible with non-premium Optimus Prime Leader-class-based releases. Because his ears are much longer, the truck roof panel that hides his head now has two holes cut into so the head can fit inside the cabin.

:The paint deco is... unfocused, to say the least. In vehicle mode, the grill, headlights, and bumpers (and thus his feet) are painted silver, yet the red in the small Autobot insignia has been removed. There is silver paint on the fuel tanks (toy battery cover), but not on the other tool boxes and equipment in the same location. There is also silver paint on all 6 wheel rims, the air cleaners, and the windscreen visor. In robot mode, the silver paint is mainly located on his thighs and crotch, though in order to save on costs, the dark blue and gold paint on his thighs and knee joints have been sacrificed.

:Unlike the initial ''Premium Series'' toys, this one was available as part of the regular mass retail Leader class assortment. The instructions still depicts the original Leader Class mold's head.

:The TakaraTomy version of Premium Series Optimus Prime has a considerably different deco from Hasbro's release. Similar to the unique chrome Optimus Prime, Optimus Prime Battle Mode features vacuum-metallized parts for nearly all of the silver truck parts, for a greater resemblance to the polished chrome on the real prop trucks. Unfortunately, as his feet are the front fenders and grill, this will likely lead to chipping. In robot mode, he retains several decos that were removed from Hasbro's Premium Optimus Prime for cost reasons, such as the blue and gold decos on his thighs. Finally, the flip-out energy sword is coloured gold to reflect its "powered up" appearance.

*'''Optimus Prime''' (2008)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''TS-01'''
**''Accessories:'' Display stand

: [[Trans-scan]]ning Optimus Prime is a Japanese-exclusive figure with many interchangeable parts. At its most basic, the figure is a spindly skeleton referred to as a "[[core body]]". To this skeleton, two sets of armor pieces can be attached to create one of two forms for Optimus Prime: his [[protoform]] mode or his Earth mode.

: The protoform mode consists of eight pieces of metallic blue plastic that plug into the arms, chest, pelvis and legs of the figure. With these pieces attached, the figure can be manipulated in a manner that might charitably be called "transformation" into his meteor-like "entry mode," accomplished by doing little more than tucking the head out of sight and folding the chest back. This blue-and-grey lump can be mounted on a three-piece stand that comes with the figure, allowing you to display it in mid-plummet. Optimus Prime's Earth mode, meanwhile, is made up of many armor pieces (including a particularly large backpack) that form a rather [[Kibble|kibbly]] robot mode, which can then transform into a truck approximating a Peterbilt 379. We would go into what an abominable, unintuitive, parts-massaging ''mess'' this transformation is, but we wouldn't want to fill up the rest of the page.

: Optimus Prime also includes a pair of interchangeable, open-palmed hands that can be swapped out for the clenched fists that are in place in-package. The Core Body mold was re-used for the simultaneously released Trans-Scanning [[Bumblebee (Movie)/toys#Trans-Scanning|Bumblebee]] figure.

*'''Optimus Prime''' (Legends, 2009)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''EZ-01'''
[[File:ROTF Legends Prime Jetfire combo.jpg|thumb|left|Don't I look awesome with my corpse backpack?]]

:''[[Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (toyline)|Revenge of the Fallen]]'' Legends class Optimus Prime is an all-new, much more accurate mold compared to the 2007 Legends class Prime, having a much greater accuracy in both robot and vehicle mode. In particular, his vehicle mode isn't inexplicably missing one smokestack like the 2007 toy. It should be noted that he was molded in only one paintable plastic color, with red and blue deco patterns decked on it. The top of the truck's bunk (ending up on his back in robot mode) has a slot to combine with [[Jetfire (Movie)|Jetfire]]. For some reason, this isn't mentioned in the instructions, though they're hardly needed.

: Compared to the final product, stock photos of the figure loses blue paint operations on his knee armor. This mold was also used to make [[Darkside Optimus Prime (DOTM)#Dark of the Moon|Darkside Optimus Prime]].

: During the [[May 30]] launch event for the ''Revenge of the Fallen'' toyline in [[Japan]], Legends Optimus were given out to attendees. The only difference is a sticker on the packaging commemorating the event. Optimus also saw release as a blindpacked figure for the first wave of the Revenge of the Fallen EZ Collection sets. And like all the first waves, he comes with a flyer advertising the TakaraTomy releases of the Revenge of the Fallen toyline. His pair of legs is also mistranformed to fit in the bubble.

:In Malaysia, this toy is also one of the four Legends Classes to be released as promotional merchandise for the Petronas Gas Station. He can be obtained starting from the 12th of July, via RM30 ($7.04) worth of gas or RM15 ($3.52) worth of foods and items in the Mesra Shop.

:Anyone looking to buy this figure on the aftermarket be warned, there is a very convincing-looking [[knockoff]] that's been making the rounds. While the paint applications are pretty much identical to the real deal, the pegs on the legs/trunk front can be a little too tight when attached. in some worst cases; it can break off if attempted to pull off by force.

*'''Optimus Prime''' (Voyager, 2009)
**''Accessories:'' 2 rifle/smokestack-fuel tank assemblies, 2 missiles

:Voyager Optimus Prime is a [[redeco]] of the toy from the [[Transformers (2007 toyline)|first movie's toyline]]. Like several redecos or retools of 2007 movie toys, there has been some effort to make this release noticeably different from the previous releases, though the toy ends up looking less accurate to the actual movie appearance than those previous releases. Optimus Prime has a sort of faded Autobot [[insignia|logo]] on the side of the truck's bunk, and kanji (Chinese characters) on the roof (ending up on his knee in robot mode.) The word "上海将军" means "Shanghai General", while "大将" means "Grand general". The beige-gray plastic used for this toy is similar to his Screen Battles toy, only with a slightly reddish hue.

:The Japanese version of the toy, named "Optimus Prime Revenge Edition", was exclusively available at Tokyo Toy Show 2009, and later also from [[e-HOBBY]]. Despite being sold in Hasbro packaging like the mass retail ''Revenge'' toys in Japan (plus the addition of Japanese stickers marking it as a Japanese market release and containing Japanese safety warnings and manufacturer information), it slightly differed from the Hasbro version insofar as it lacked the [[tampograph]]ed kanji lettering.

**''Accessories:'' 2 rifle/smokestack-fuel tank assemblies, 2 missiles, sword, Jetfire armour parts

:''[[Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen: Unite for the Universe|Unite for the Universe]]'' Optimus Prime would have been a redeco of the 2007 Optimus Prime Voyager-Class mold in a similar style to the Leader-Class Buster Optimus Prime (see below), with a much more accurate and detailed paint scheme, including white stenciled flames. He would have come with a set of [[Jetfire (Movie)#Voyager Class toys|Jetfire]] armour parts to form the powered-up Optimus Prime seen at end of ''[[Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (film)|Revenge of the Fallen]]'', and due to not having to form Jetfire's robot mode or his jet mode, the armour parts are far more accurate to the movie's design of them than the leader class Jetfire toy could manage. While not combined to Optimus Prime, the armour can be arranged to form a sort of weapon emplacement mode or a jet engine on the back of Optimus's vehicle mode.

:Both Jet Power Optimus Prime and the accompanying redeco of Voyager-Class ''Revenge of the Fallen'' [[Megatron (Movie)/toys#UniteMegatron|Megatron]] would have come with an issue of the [[Unite for the Universe issue 1|''Unite for the Universe'' comic book]], but due to the cancellation of both figures, the comics were eventually included with the [[The Transformers: Masterpiece|Movie Masterpiece]] releases of Leader-Class [[Starscream (Movie)/toys#Masterpiece|Starscream]] and [[Bumblebee (Movie)/toys#Masterpiece|Bumblebee]]. Of amusement is the fact the comics are essentially showcasing toys that have been canceled.

The articulation is limited to hinges on his arms, legs and shoulders, all three of them being contingent from his transformation.

:Towering at only barely over two inches, this was actually not just the smallest movie-verse Optimus but even the smallest transformable figure of Optimus Prime for a while - ironically enough, being even slightly tinier than the [[Smallest Transforming Transformers]] [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys|Optimus Prime]] - that is, until he was later "out-tinied" by [[Optimus Prime (Movie)/toys#Q-Transformers|two]] [[Optimus Prime (Movie)/toys#Tiny Turbo Changers|other]] cute super deformed versions.

===Leader Class toys===
[[File:ROTF Leader OptimusPrime.jpg|upright=1.66|thumb|I will not stop telling you that I am Optimus Prime. Ever!]]
*'''Optimus Prime''' (Leader, 2009)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''RA-01'''

:''[[Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (toyline)|Revenge of the Fallen]]'' Leader-class Optimus Prime is an entirely different mold from the first movie's Leader-class Optimus Prime.

:Like the previous Prime, it is loaded with features, though it ditches the first movie's [[Automorph Technology|Automorph]]ing for the new [[Mech Alive]] gimmick. When a grey tab on his midriff is pressed, Prime's entire pectoral region "flexes", lights in his chest and eyes glow, and he declares "I am Optimus Prime" in [[Peter Cullen]]'s voice. For the European release of the figure, to get past the language barrier, the Cullen sound clip is abbreviated to just "Optimus Prime"; in some regions, including Quebec and the UK (but only after a month or two), both versions were made available. A transformation sound effect activates when his torso is transformed, and once Prime is in truck mode, an almost unnoticeable button (a small square located beside the screw for the battery compartment, undocumented in his instructions) is revealed, which activates engine-idling noises.

:Each arm features flip-out blades that trigger when a button on the forearm is pressed. Each of these blades has a [[Cyberglyphics|Cyberglyphic]] symbol on it. The blades severely restrict Prime's arm articulation when retracted, as they get in the way of the kibble, but as there is very little one can do with Prime's arms without causing the blades to deploy, this is hardly noticeable.

:One detail not reflected in most of Hasbro's photos is that the sun visors above Prime's windows are mounted on ball joints and can be positioned like they are in his CG design. The hood halves on his arms can slide up on their hinges and the blue panels at the back of Prime's lower legs can be pulled out slightly as well for further screen accuracy.

:Overall, the robot mode of ''Revenge of the Fallen'' leader class Optimus Prime toy is slightly taller and considerably more athletic-looking than the 2007 ''Transformers'' Leader-class Optimus Prime toy.

[[File:ROTF Leader Jetfire PowerUpPrime toy.jpg|thumb|left|upright=1.4|Who's your daddy? He is.]]
:Optimus Prime can also combine with Leader-class [[Jetfire (Movie)|Jetfire]] to form Jetpower Optimus Prime by slightly transforming his backpack and feet. Sadly, this takes away from his leg articulation, because otherwise he could never support the massive backpack he has in this mode. However, fans have created alternate configurations that increase leg articulation and movie-accuracy.

:Like several new-mold ''Revenge of the Fallen'' toys, Optimus Prime suffers from some cost-cutting measures that affected the final production version of the mold. According to Hasbro's stock photos/back-of-box photo of the hand-painted [[prototype]], the toolboxes on the sides of his legs were designed to fold away further for a sleeker, cleaner look. Additionally, the rear tires would have been able to split in half, with the inner half of the tire going inside the outer half to recreate the thin tires seen on Prime's CG design. Some articulation was lost on the toy between Hasbro stock photography and the final release. His fingers are no longer articulated; instead, the entire hand is now one molded piece. Finally, the lower arms appear to have been originally designed so that his hands could slide in or out of them during transformation. Sadly, he also lacks rubber tires, which the original movie Prime did have. Meanwhile, the articulated fingers was later used for the ''Asia Premium Series'' & ''Movie The Best'' releases.

:As a result of striving for vehicle realism and painstaking accuracy to his visual portrayal in the live-action films, this Optimus Prime ends up being ridiculously complex. Transforming him back into a truck is probably more complicated than shown in the movie and can only be considered ''torture''. Very unfortunately, the [[instructions]] for this toy are infamous for being amazingly vague and unclear in their visual depiction of the transformation steps, making transformation even ''harder''. Also, let us not forget that, upon transforming him back to robot mode, he will declare his identity over and over and over and over and over until you're finished.

:The TakaraTomy release of Optimus Prime replaces the red plastic from his neck down to the middle of his pectorals with gray plastic. The smokestacks also are a different shade of gray, and are more opaque than the Hasbro release. This version can also attach [[Energon star]]s.

:The entire mold also became a victim of [[Knockoff|counterfeiting]], ranging from upscaled (and sometimes simpified) molds to high-quality clones. Several of his redecoes/retools below also suffers from this too.

:This [[TakaraTomy]] Asian market-[[exclusive]] Leader Class two-pack consists of a redecoed [[Jetfire (Movie)#JetfireBuster|Jetfire]] and a slightly altered Buster Optimus Prime. Buster Optimus Prime is almost identical to the single-pack Japanese release of the toy, but unlike the standalone Buster Prime, has a head with a faceplate, itself containing more paint details than the first release of ''Revenge of the Fallen'' Leader-class Optimus Prime. The flames are outlined with light blue instead of white for accuracy to the physical truck prop (though it ends up being inaccurate in robot mode). Jetfire has a subtle, more [[show-accuracy|movie-accurate]] colour scheme.

:Despite the fact that this is a TakaraTomy release, this version ''doesn't'' use the improved version of Optimus' [[instructions]], using instead the original (and less helpful) version.

This release of Buster Optimus Prime was susceptible to a paint scraping issue on the silver painted slide-out barrel of his blaster. This problem was fixed for the [[#DOTMJetfireBuster|DOTM Re-release]] by relocating the silver paint app from the barrel to the inside wall of an exposed gas tank that had been previously left as unpainted grey plastic. The black paint app on the barrel was left unchanged.

:In mid 2010, this set was released in Australia. In early 2011, it was released in the Philippines. In late 2011, [[#DOTMJetfireBuster|this set]] was [[Rebranding|re-released]] in ''[[Transformers: Dark of the Moon (toyline)|Dark of the Moon]]'' [[packaging]].

To date, this is the only Hasbro release of this figure that acknowledges the combining feature between Jetfire and Optimus Prime.

:This redeco is also re-released as part of the ''Chronicle'' EZ Collection lineup. ([[Optimus Prime (Movie)/toys#Chronicle|See below]].)

*'''Optimus Prime''' (EZ Collection, 2010)

:This Japanese exclusive release of Optimus Prime features much more black coloring than the previous releases, and it's (coincidentally) based on the Fast Action Battlers Power Armor Optimus Prime toy, so as to be used with the similarly-repainted Legends Jetfire figure to form the Optimus' powered up combination. For some reason, he has red eyes. This redeco also uses the slightly small fuel tank/elbow tabs from the Battle Damaged release.

*'''Battle Blades Optimus Prime''' (Voyager Class, 2010)
**''TakaraTomy ID number:'' '''AA-01'''
**''Accessories:'' Matrix of Leadership, 2 Fuel Tank-Gun assemblies, removable Energon Swords

:Battle Blades Optimus Prime is a brand new sculpt that attempts to replicate his Leader Class design. He is much more movie accurate than the previous Voyager incarnations. He features two [[Dual Energon Swords|energon swords]] made of soft plastic, similar to his Leader Class incarnation, albeit not spring-loaded. They can be detached from the mushroom joints they're on, although doing this excessively may cause them to warp.

:He also has a removable [[Matrix of Leadership]] in his chest which is made of unpainted gray plastic. In an awesome homage, the Movie matrix rests on a stand molded to look like its G1 incarnation.

:His fuel tanks can also separate from the truck panels and become two [[barrage cannon]]s. Oddly enough, these guns are mentioned nowhere on the box even though they would normally be a selling point.

:The [[instructions]] neglect to mention that the entire roof of the cab is on a concealed hinge which greatly eases the difficulty of Prime's transformation. For whatever reason, the instructions treat the toy as if the hinge does not exist, going so far as to show Prime's head magically clipping through his chest to transform. The instructions also neglect to mention that his heel/bumper pieces must be slid out until they ''click'', making the figure just that bit more stable, and that the rotating truck door panels on his upper arms can be pulled further out (but not off) from their sockets, allowing more space for the panels to swing around his hood-arms during transformation. It should be noted that the chest windows on all releases of this sculpt are prone to slight cracking, often out of the packaging.

:The TakaraTomy "Autobot Alliance" release of this toy has some significant differences, including casting the red plastic in a darker shade, making his shin and wheel joints grey rather than Hasbro's bronze, painting the Matrix of Leadership silver, and swapping out the dual energon swords for battle hooks, similar to 2010's Leader Class Optimus Prime (see below). However, due to the Japanese release retaining the Hasbro packaging, the box still advertises the dual energon swords rather than the hooks. He retains the masked face used for the Hasbro release.

:This mold was also used to make ''Dark of the Moon'' [[Darkside Optimus Prime (DOTM)|Darkside Optimus Prime]].

*'''Optimus Prime''' (Leader Class, 2010)

:This retool of ''Revenge of the Fallen'' Leader Class Optimus Prime features the head from Buster Optimus Prime and has had his blades replaced with semi-articulated Battle Hooks for face-destroying action! He has a darker paint job and sports black splotches on his body and head to signify battle damage. However, due to these extra "battle damage" paint applications, some other paint applications that were present on the Revenge of the Fallen release were omitted. He also sports a new voice box in robot mode, replacing the infamous "I am Optimus Prime!" with "We must stop the Decepticons!" The international release, however, retains the same abbreviated "Optimus Prime" sound clip as the original release. To the annoyance of many fans, this version was the main version released just about ''anywhere'' outside the United States (all of Canada, Latin America, Europe, and Asia). The box also mentions racing sounds, which may or may not be referring to the button-activated diesel engine noises carried over from the ''Revenge of the Fallen'' version of the figure.
:This version uses the TakaraTomy version of the instructions, which improved upon the original Leader-Class Optimus Prime instruction sheet by including supplementary photographed steps that were previously vague or neglected in the original release.

:Like his EZ Collection Real brethren, Optimus Prime comes with two different variants: The "Real Color" features a flat shade on the plastic colors and paint, while the "Metallic Color" features metallic paint and plastic instead.

:Stock photos showed that his blue paint applications being brighter. This could be a trick of a lightning, since the final product's blue paint applications is still the same dark blue color seen in the Battle Damaged figure.

:Released as part of the first wave of the [[Cyberverse (toyline)|Cyberverse]] Commander class figures, this Optimus Prime is a roughly Scout-sized figure.He comes with a jetpack that can combine with both his truck and robot modes. The jetpack attaches via [[C joint]] clips, and the jetpack can transform in and out of a winged configuration when Optimus is in truck mode. Optimus himself features C joint bars for his smokestacks and trailer hitch, as well as bars on the top of his headache rack, while his hands and jetpack can hold/mount his rifles via C joint-related 3mm clips/holes.

He comes packaged with a pair of {{w|Anaglyph image|Anaglyph}} 3-D glasses for use on the transformers.com website, but they cannot be used to view 3D movies in cinemas.

:This toy is also notorious for being a shelfwarmer in a small number of Walmart stores for 8 years.

*'''Optimus Prime''' (MechTech Deluxe, 2011)
**''Accessories:'' MechTech Blaster/Energon Battle Axe

:Exclusive to [[Walmart]], this Deluxe Class Optimus Prime is an all-new mold, close in scale to Voyager Class [[Megatron (Movie)/toys#Voyager Class toys 4|Megatron]]. He has a high range of motion, with ball jointed shoulders and hips, swivels at the neck, knees, and feet, and double swivels in the elbows. As a result of the transformation process, he can also rotate at the waist, though this is hindered considerably by his "backpack" [[kibble]]. This can be remedied by pointing the truck nose downward, as it is in the packaging. Optimus Prime also features the spring loaded "Automorph" feature in his head, if the truck kibble pushes the small grey switch from his back before splitting the chest into half. And due to how close the head of the faceplate and the front unpaintable piece is, Optimus' "nose" section has a tendency to chip off after many transformations.

:Optimus Prime features a [[MechTech]] Blaster that can convert into an Energon Battle Axe reminiscent of the [[Optimus Prime (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Generation 1 character]]'s [[Energon-axe|iconic weapon]], though the weapon cannot be locked in battle axe mode. There is also a pair of C joint rods on the underside of both forearms. His MechTech blaster can plug into the port on each of his arms or be held in either hand in robot mode, or plug into one of two holes on his truck roof/robot shoulders.

:After step 5, the instructions did not mention that you should fold back the shoulder panels to form the sleeper part until the 11th step. Care must be taken while transforming the legs: the small peg located on the lower leg can be snapped off due to the peg being slightly thick to accommodate with the hole. Also, take note that Optimus Prime cannot wield 5mm weapons with longer posts, as the way that his pinky finger is molded prevents the post from pegging down through his hands. Also, take note that the legs' sculpted small rectangle peg (the one that locks the robot mode legs in place) is prone to warping if care is not taken during transformation.

:The hand-painted prototype photos from both the packaging and the instructions shows that Prime had long smokestacks, but it was shortened for safety reasons in the final product.

:His MechTech weapon was redecoed from [[Mudflap (ROTF)#Deluxe Class toys 3|Mudflap]]'s weapon. This figure is currently being sold in Universal theme parks in new packaging based on the ride. He is advertised as a Universal Studios Exclusive, despite having no visible changes from his original widespread release.

The "Standard" version sports an extremely detailed "premium" and screen-accurate paint job, while the Black version sports a black deco that makes him look very much like [[The many deaths of Optimus Prime|if he is dead]].

Each figure was sold separately in a black box with a black movie Optimus Prime silhouette that is visible thanks to the the "Exclusive Optimus Prime" and the Milk's 10th anniversary logo. The outside of the box prevents anyone from seeing the figure inside, meaning that you have to open to see if the version that you've got is the "Standard" version or the Black version.

They come packed with the same Mechtech weapon from the first release. The stock photos shows the gun with the same colors from the first release of the mold but all chromed all over when in reality it's all silver.

:He also has a new [[MechTech]] Ion blaster with a flip-out [[Dual Energon Swords|Energon Sword]], and like all Voyager Class MechTech weapons, it can lock into place by latching one of the levers to the body of the gun.

:His MechTech [[Armored Weapons Platform#Voyager Class toys|trailer]] opens up much like Generation 1 [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys|Optimus Prime]]'s trailer (as well as being able to stand up to harken back to the Generation 1 [[Combat Deck (G1)|Combat Deck]]'s upright mode), includes storage for many MechTech weapons inside and out, and is able to transport up to two Deluxe class (or one smaller Voyager) Autobots.

:The flame deco on Optimus' forearm parts (hidden by the wheels) are flipped in the stock photos, which is present in the vehicle mode. The updated version of the photo (seen in the packaging) features the correct deco. Meanwhile, all of the stock photos of the Ion Blaster/Energy Blade (sans the extra step instruction) depicts the blade as a painted opaque piece.

:The instructions also depict his fuel tank assemblies being positioned like the first figure's gas tanks, though you can swivel them frontwards for a better appearance, as seen in the stock photo.

:The figure omits the extended pieces of the side doors in vehicle mode (the ones which can be seen above the gas tanks in robot mode), leaving the sides of the robot mode's chest exposed.

:He comes with a MechTech rifle that converts into a large battle axe, and can be locked in by pulling the lever all the way in and tilting it into a gap to the left. The rifle has a separate flip-out handle, while the axe uses the rifle's long barrel as the handle, meaning that Optimus can grip the axe with both of his hands. This weapon was also retooled in a running change, adding a stop to the handle instead of relying solely on the gear system to prevent the locking assembly from flying off into parts unknown.

**''Japanese ID number:'' '''DA28'''
**''Accessories:'' Eliminator Gun & Assault Blaster (forms [[Mega Striker]]), shield/battle shield

: Labeled as a "[[Triple Changer]]", Striker Optimus is a redeco and retool of ''Dark of the Moon'' Supreme Class Jetwing Optimus Prime, with new weapons. The base figure has most of the same mold changes as Jetwing Optimus Prime (see below), but has been altered further; in particular, the transforming smokestacks and fuel tanks/ion blaster parts have been replaced with retooled regular tanks that now function as mounts for the new accessories. The colors on the toy are darker than Jetwing Optimus, with a different flame deco that extends farther along the sides of the toy. Additionally, two new 5mm holes have been added to the gray hinge behind the cab in order to accommodate the [[Toys"R"Us|Toys"R"Us Japan]]-exclusive battle blade accessories. The "I am Optimus Prime" saying of Buster Optimus Prime has also been replaced with the "We must stop the Decepticons!" saying of 2010 ''Transformers'' Optimus Prime, although batteries are not included.

:He comes with a shield with a fold-out handle, allowing Optimus to hold onto it with either hand in robot mode. It has a simple transformation gimmick for vehicle mode which is activated by pressing a button at the top of the shield, causing the sides to spring outwards. In vehicle mode, the shield can be laid flat across the bed of the truck, attaching via a post on the back onto the truck’s trailer hitch. Alternatively, the bumpers on the shield can be rotated outwards, and the front can be bent down in order to form a new front end and hood for "battle vehicle mode", resembling the [[Stealth Force]] vehicle modes seen in ''Dark of the Moon''.

:The figure also comes with two gun accessories, the "Eliminator Gun" and "Assault Blaster", which combine into the "Mega Striker", a rifle that closely resembles the one used in ''Dark of the Moon''. The separate guns also have a MechTech-style transformation, and pulling a lever transforms them into alternate crossbow-like shapes. In "battle vehicle mode", the sides of the truck are rotated up, and the guns can be attached by small pegs to holes in the modified smokestacks, or they can plugged into any of the standard connection points with their [[5 mm post|5mm post]]s... except the ones on the hinge behind the cab, since those are supposed to be for his Energon battle blades.

:As with all Japanese ''Dark of the Moon'' releases, this set comes packed with a character card and an accompanying transparent plastic card of his new rifle in its combined mode for the MechTech Wars online game.

:Due to the remolding of the smokestacks, Striker Optimus cannot use the Jetwing pack in robot mode.

The DOTM packaging release of this 2-pack features an altered paint application on Optimus Prime's ion blaster/barrage cannon. On the original ROTF packaging release, the slide-out barrel on Prime's blaster is painted silver with a black paint spray app to simulate usage of the weapon, and the exposed inside wall of the gas tank at the top of the blaster is left as unpainted grey plastic (exactly like the blaster on the original single-boxed ROTF Buster Optimus Prime). After receiving numerous reports from customers that the silver paint on the slide-out barrel was easily scraped off by merely transforming it from gas tank to blaster, Takara-Tomy briefly stated in an interview that they had addressed the issue for the Dark of the Moon packaged version by swapping the placement of the silver paint application. Thus, the Dark of the Moon packaged version now features the slide-out barrel on Prime's blaster as unpainted grey plastic with an unchanged black paint spray app to simulate usage of the weapon, and the exposed inside wall of the gas tank at the top of the blaster is now painted silver.

**''Japanese ID number:'' '''DA15'''
**''Accessories:'' Tank A & Tank B (forms Ion Blaster), Jetwing jet pack, Arm Gatling Cannon A & B, Leg Armor A & B

:Jetwing Optimus Prime is a retool of ''Revenge of the Fallen'' Leader class Buster Optimus Prime, with an accompanying large jet pack and massive dual Gatling Cannons. The base Optimus Prime figure has several modifications including: a new stomach area and elbow flares to reflect the changes to Optimus Prime's CG model in ''Dark of the Moon'', modified lower arms to incorporate MechTech ports and clips for the cannons, and a retooled area under his back so the jet pack can fit on more securely. The dual energon blades mounted on his arms have been removed. The toy retains Buster Optimus Prime's electronics, but batteries are not included.

:The Jetwing jet pack attaches onto Optimus Prime via a part that hooks onto one of the hinges behind his neck, and a spring-loaded clamp that latches onto a recessed area under Optimus' back. The fuel tanks that form Optimus' Ion Blaster must be removed for this mode, and they can be stored inside the engines for the jet pack. The Jetwing can be used on previous Leader Optimus Primes from ''Revenge of the Fallen'' onwards, but due to the lack modifications seen in Jetwing Optimus Prime, the combination isn't as stable. The jet pack features four MechTech ports on the main wing articulation points, and two [[C joint]] mounting points on each wing. The Gatling Cannons both feature two MechTech ports and 2 C joint mounts on either side of each cannon.

:The design of the Jetwing jet pack and its cannons were based upon earlier concept art for Optimus Prime's flight tech for ''Dark of the Moon'', and as such are not accurate to how his equipment appears in the movie itself.

:As with all Japanese ''Dark of the Moon'' releases, this set comes packed with a character card and an accompanying transparent plastic card of his MechTech weapon for the MechTech Wars online game.

:Jetwing Optimus Prime was available for early purchase in Japan at the International Tokyo Toy Show 2011 (held at Tokyo Bic Sight) on [[June 18]] to [[June 19|19]], shortly before its wide release in July.

:However, the toy was available in [[Australia]] a week before the Tokyo Toy Show, packaged in translated English packaging and instructions by Tomy Asia.

:This redeco of Jetwing Optimus Prime is a North American [[Amazon (website)|Amazon.com]] and 2013 [[Black Friday (event)|Black Friday]] [[Toys"R"Us]] exclusive. Among other deco changes, he features Generation 1-style trailer stripes on his Jetwing jet pack, Movie-style flame color gradient on his Gatling Cannons, and [[AllSpark Power]] blue paint on the mechanical detailing.

:The box seems to have been created rather hastily from the Japanese original. It is roughly identical to the Tomy release, but with the Japanese text edited out... mostly. Random Japanese text remains floating in space on the top of the back panel and underneath the "Jetwing Optimus Prime" name on the front. Curiously, the left flap has been rewritten to eliminate mention of [[NEST]] and the jetpack's ability to detach, while the right flap has been (badly) edited to remove all mentions of [[MechTech]].

[[File:DOTM UltimateOptimusPrime toy.jpg|thumb|upright=2.2|Truck forearms of '''DOOM'''!]]
*'''Ultimate Optimus Prime''' (MechTech Ultimate, 2011)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''DA32'''
**''Accessories:'' Trailer/Omega Combat Armor, MechTech Ultimax Super Cannon

:Billed on his packaging as "BIGGEST Optimus Prime Toy!", Ultimate Optimus Prime consists of an articulated tractor-trailer. The cab can transform into a "normal" Optimus Prime on its own, roughly equivalent to a Voyager in size and complexity, though with a lower degree of screen-accuracy than most large Optimus toys. Prime has 5mm fist holes, as well as additional 5mm ports on his front wheel wells and both sets of external fuel tanks. Four of these remain available in robot mode. The trailer has twelve more 5mm ports. Despite this, the toy comes with no weapons scaled such that the cab-only robot can usefully wield them.

:The real selling point of the toy, however, is the colossal Omega Combat Armor. [[Armored Weapons Platform#Ultimate|Optimus' trailer]] transforms into nearly two feet of limb extensions, armor, and wings. The armor remains completely integrated (except for the Ultimax Super Cannon) during transformation, with no [[Partformer|partsforming]], although this renders the final power-up robot mode somewhat limited in articulation, having no leg articulation whatsoever aside from swinging the hips out slightly and twisting at the ankles for maximum stability. The armor adds six more 5mm ports of dubious utility around the feet, retains the four from the cab robot and the eight from the trailer (on the backs of the wings), and has his own pair of 5mm fist holes. In trailer mode, it can support itself using folding blue landing gear, although the attached ball-jointed struts make it somewhat less than realistic.

:The centerpiece of the power-up robot mode is Prime's gigantic Ultimax Super Cannon, an electronic light-and-sound weapon the size and mass of a Deluxe figure. The whole cannon attaches to a special socket slightly behind Prime's shoulders, can store on the back or flip over to be gripped in both fists in armor mode, or stored upside-down underneath the trailer in truck mode. When pointed forward, the cannon has a larger helmet styled after Prime's own with a large translucent face shield featuring a painted targeting system. The weapon has three electronic modes: each of two small buttons plays its own weapon-firing noise and flashes one set of lights, while the large pull-switch in the cannon's center plays the sounds of a powerful barrage, flashing both sets of lights and (every third time) finishing off with the declaration "I am Optimus Prime". The Ultimax Super Cannon also has two of its own 5mm ports for even more MechTech firepower. When mounted on his back, the Cannon has two hook-like sections that securely lock into the "backpack", allowing the Ultimax weapon to serve as a handle for Optimus' imaginary "flight" operations.

:Although the trailer is made exclusively for the cab with which it comes, it is scaled much more closely to and can be pulled by Optimus Prime's ''Revenge of the Fallen'' Leader class iteration.

:In Japan, Ultimate Optimus Prime comes with a character card and an accompanying transparent plastic card of his MechTech weapon for the MechTech Wars online game.

The toy was released as a "{{w|Dragon (zodiac)|Year of the Dragon}}" Special Edition in [[2012]], since the Chinese Zodiac sign for that year is the Dragon.

*'''Optimus Prime''' (2011)
:As with other Dark of the Moon Activators toys, this Optimus Prime (released under the [[Robo Power]] subline) is a very simple one-step transformation toy. You simply slam him down on the big blue button on the back end of his truck mode and he transforms thanks to spring-loaded mechanisms. To transform him back, just slam him down again on the same blue button.

:Shockingly, he actually has arm articulation! Swivels at his shoulders allow you to rotate his arms 360 degrees! Go little Prime! Unfortunately, because his big blue button sits right under his feet, his robot mode is a little unstable when it comes to standing.

:Prime was packaged in vehicle mode on an open, bubble-less card and tied down with twist-ties around the body of his truck form so that he couldn't be transformed in package.

:''Bash Bots'' Optimus Prime is a small, rock-em-sock-em-styled toy that transforms from a super-deformed truck into a robot by pulling or pushing the lever below it's built-in stand.

:[[Robo Power#Go-Bots|Go-Bot]]s Optimus Prime is built around the same pull-back and auto-transform mechanisms as all the ''Dark of the Moon'' Go-Bots toys. Prime's pull-back motor can be used in either robot or vehicle mode.

:In robot mode, the motor gimmick really comes to the fore—his head, shoulders, and legs move in time with his forward movement. His legs pump up and down, his shoulders pump up and down, and his head rocks side-to-side. This gives the toy the illusion that it's running, rather than just rolling.

:The other gimmick for Prime is his auto-transform gimmick. From truck mode, push him down on his back bumper and his bonnet automatically folds back and his arms automatically pop out. He needs to be transformed back manually.

:In robot mode, Go-Bots Optimus Prime has a limited swivel joint for head articulation, and while he has other movable joints, all of them are spring-loaded and unable to hold a pose.

:[[Asia Premium Series]] Optimus Prime Ultimate Edition is an extensive screen-accurate redeco of Jetwing Optimus Prime (with a maskless head from Buster Optimus Prime), this figure features '''loads''' of accessories from the Striker & Jetwing figures, and includes brand-new knuckle and battle hooks based on the HFTD Optimus', which can be installed in either hand. The figure lacks the chrome of previous releases, instead opting for silver paint. The pin-striping is also absent, but he does have painted pupils. The figure also features 2-2-1 articulated fingers, which the [[Optimus Prime (Movie)/toys#Leader Class toys 2|first Leader Class]] did not have due to budget cuts. The ion cannon included lacks the black paint application, leaving it completely silver. When purchased from select retailers, this toy will also include a shiny metal number plate and a bonus mini [[AllSpark]] cube accessory. His instructions depict a weaponized mode which has some clearance issues, as his Gatling guns are shown attached to the Jetwing, which pushes against his arms. His Eliminator Gun and Assault Blaster cannot tab into the Gatling gun tightly either.

**''Accessories'': Optimus rifle, weapons sprue (sniper rifle, pistol, submachinegun, handcuffs, radio, ammo box), large tool sprue (shovel, hammer, electric drill, clamp), small tool sprue (socket wrench, screwdriver, wrench, hatchet), 2 traffic cones

: Naturally, Optimus Prime got the biggest of the sets in the first year of ''Kre-O''. The set can be built into a large long-nose tractor-trailer rig with a removable "sleeper" cab that hides a computer station, and a trailer that can carry the set's two motorcycles or open up to carry larger car builds. The robot mode build includes a huge Optimus, based largely on the [[Optimus Prime (Movie)|live-action movie Optimus]], though with a head based almost directly on the [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys#Classics|''Classics'' Voyager Optimus]]. He is armed with a distressingly plain brick that fires pressure-launched missiles (aka his smokestacks). Most of the leftover parts in robot mode become a "headquarters" which is mostly just a random assemblage of mismatched-color panels and a pair of barricades. Both main builds leave numerous parts unused if you go expressly by the instructions, but hey, it's a building kit, surely you can find ''someplace'' to apply most of them.

: The set comes with a bevy of [[Kreon]]s, including Optimus Prime (this one based heavily on [[Optimus Prime (G1)|Generation 1 Optimus]]), [[Bluestreak (G1)/toys#Kre-O|Bluestreak]], [[Skywarp (G1)/toys#Kre-O|Skywarp]], and a pair of human [[Stunt Driver]]s. A packaging error resulted in some releases of this set to come with the promotional "Matrix chest" Optimus (see above) rather than the normal version pictured here.

:Speaking of errors, the instruction manuals (he has two) both have errors in their parts listings, showing numerous pieces in the wrong colors or not making it clear that some parts are, well, clear. Making things more confusing, not all of these miscolors are reflected in the step-by-step instructions, while a couple new ones are added there.

:This set popped up at Toys"R"Us a few short weeks after the initial product without any advance warning... and retailed for a mere $25, despite the size of the set.

: This version of Optimus uses the micro-Kreon build introduced in the ''Kre-O Cityville Invasion'' sets. He comes with a mini-build of dino-mode [[Grimlock (Kre-O)#DinobotRide|Grimlock]] as part of a small bagged kit.

: This set was only available on [[June 28]] as part of a special promotion at Toys"R"Us, given away free from noon to 2pm (roughly) as part of an in-store building event that coincided with the opening weekend of ''[[Transformers: Age of Extinction (film)|Age of Extinction]]'' and the final day of a buy-one-get-one-half-off sale on all ''Transformers'' product.

: The building set also comes with a poster with a preview of all Kre-O Transformers products released in 2014. Remaining stock of the kit (new condition, of course) is later dumped to several Hobby Shops in Asia.

:This version of "movie" Optimus is based on his ''[[Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (film)|Revenge of the Fallen]]'' incarnation, as that's how he appears in "[[Transformers: The Ride – 3D]]" and as a mascot character on the park grounds. He is available exclusively in a box set sold at The Ride's gift shop at [[Universal]] Studios theme parks. After several years of ''only'' being available at the park proper, the four-pack was eventually added to Universal's online store.

: In 2015, a new run of the set was produced, this time using the revamped-from-the-head-down 2015-style Kreon bodies. Optimus's [[tampograph]]s are slightly sharper, with thinner black outlines, but are otherwise unchanged. This set would later see slight production changes; all of the figures' tampographs have gone back to thicker lines and being a bit sloppier, while Optimus's medium-pearlescent-gray plastics (his arm-mounted smokestacks) have been lightened considerably and lost a significant amount of metallic sheen.

: In mid-2020, the set was revamped again ''again'', now removing Evac and replacing him with the [[N.E.S.T. Sentry]]. This version of the set uses the latter version of the other three characters with the thicker tampograph lines and lighter medium-gray plastic.

:"Mini-Con Combiner"' Optimus comes with one standard Kreon and four ''Cityville''-syle mini-Kreons of the same character, each one a different incarnation from various franchises. With some extra parts, the mini-Kreons become limbs to make a larger combiner-bot.

: One of the Mini-Con limb-bots (Soundwave helmet) is based on the original movie version of Optimus. The main torso-bot is based on Generation 1 Optimus's original body. Two of his limbs are based on ''[[Transformers: Armada (franchise)|Armada]]'' [[Optimus Prime (Armada)|Optimus Prime]]; one "normal" (Inferno helmet), one pre-[[Earth]]-body (Knock Out helmet). And the remaining one (Ironhide helmet)... actually looks to be based on the Optimus-like-but-not-Optimus [[Micromaster]] [[Overload (G1)|Overload]]! The heck?

:[https://www.seibertron.com/events/fullsize.php?event_id=400&size=1&image=29 First shown at New York Toy Fair 2015], the Mini-Con Combiners were apparently cancelled without fanfare... a decision that must have come late in the day, as they went on to star in their own promotional animation, "[[Stuck in a Tree]]", released about eight months after the trade show.

*'''First Edition Optimus Prime''' (2014)
**'''14 OF 30'''
**''Accessories:'' Sword of Judgment, Sentinel Shield

: First Edition Optimus Prime is, as his title suggests, the first toy available to the public from the [[Transformers: Age of Extinction (toyline)|''Age of Extinction'' toy line]]. Prime is an all-new Leader Class-sized figure, featuring his new Western Star "5700 OP" concept truck vehicle mode and his updated robot mode from the film (well, mostly based on his initial design rather than the final design in the movie). His transformation is much simpler than his counterparts from the previous three movie lines, being billed as transforming in "15 easy steps." His torso, shoulders, upper legs, and the vehicle mode grill are all completely chromed with the exception of minor blue and red details painted on his chest. However, this comes at the expense of his smokestacks and wheels being bare gray plastic, whereas they are chromed in the film. His simplified transformation also comes at the expense of having a very bulky "backpack" of [[kibble]] composed of the rear of the truck cab and the fuel tanks, limiting his shoulder and hip [[articulation]]. However, his truck [[kibble]] can be detached from the main figure to form the majority of his vehicle mode on its own.
[[File:TF-AOE-FE-Optimus-Prime-individual-modes.jpg|left|250px|thumb]]

:He includes the Sword of Judgment and Sentinel Shield accessories, which he can respectively wield and mount on his left forearm, all via a 5mm post. In truck mode, the sword is stored underneath, while the shield mounts onto the trailer hitch. The sword also features a [[5 mm post|5mm post]] on its hilt. Interestingly, the truck mode is able to pull G1 Optimus Prime's trailer.

:He was only available as an [[Amazon (website)|Amazon]] exclusive in the United States, but was also released at brick and mortar retails in Australia and Hasbro's Asian markets, such as Singapore. Oddly enough, even though the official press release for the figure identifies it as "14 of 30" in Hasbro's ''[[Thrilling 30#30 exclusive toys|Thrilling 30]]'' campaign, the [[packaging]] does not sport any such markings.<ref name="fepress">[http://www.hasbro.com/transformers/en_US/discover/news/Transformers-Movie-4-Optimus-Prime-Action-Figure-First-Edition.cfm Official Hasbro press release for ''Age of Extinction'' First Edition Optimus Prime]</ref> To complicate matters further, a later retrospective by Hasbro on Facebook identifies ''another'' product as "14 of 30", which doesn't sport any such markings on its packaging ''either''.<ref name="retro">[https://www.facebook.com/transformers/posts/743925055677691 Habro Thrilling 30 retrospective] on Facebook, mirrored [http://www.tfw2005.com/transformers-news/transformers-generations-classics-30-35/hasbro-transformers-30th-anniversary-thrilling-30-exclusives-retrospective-gallery-181598/ here] on TFW2005.</ref>

Protoform Optimus Prime transforms into his "entry" mode. This mode somewhat resembles a cybertronic truck, with false wheels sculpted onto the sides, and Optimus Prime's trademark windows in front. His now-blue flame decoration piece fits the back of the "vehicle", creating the illusion of a flaming comet's tail (Not sure if this was meant to represent his jetpack blast effect or his atmospheric entry heat effect, which is for no reason: entirely blue instead of hot red). The bottom of the vehicle has small wheels to roll the toy across smooth surfaces.

He comes with a redeco of Generation 1 [[Rampage (G1)|Rampage]]'s sword, which can be wielded by his 5mm-compatible hands (Although not shown in the instructions). As his body, legs, and front truck kibble were chromed, care must be taken while transforming, ''especially'' with the shoulder kibble & the bottom leg's posts (This can be amended if you slightly widen the holes with 3mm hand drills). As with the original ''Dark of the Moon'' Deluxe Class figure, the instructions did not mention about forming the sleeper part until step 10, the pinky finger prevented the sword to peg down through his hands, and of course: his truck mode can attach with the Armored Weapons Platform included in the ''Chronicle'' or the ''Movie Trilogy Series'' figure. This figure has slightly loose shoulder joints.

:This figure was only available in a two-pack with a Voyager Class [[Grimlock (AOE)#Target2Pack|Grimlock]] figure. The two-pack was exclusively available at Target stores in the United States, Canada, and Australia, at Tesco stores in the United Kingdom and Hungary and at Galeria Kaufhof department stores in Germany. In Asia, some of the remaining stock is available in some hobby shops and some video stores like Speedy Video.

**''Accessories:'' Ion cannon, projectile/nozzle

:Part of the first wave of ''Age of Extinction: [[Transformers: Generations (toyline)|Generations]]'' Voyager Class toys, "Evasion Mode Optimus Prime" is an all-new figure based on the character's initial form in the film, transforming from a cab-over semi-truck into a robot mostly similar to his previous movie design. The truck mode is heavily based on Generation 1 Optimus Prime's White Freightliner WFT alt mode in both sculpt and deco, although it draws a few details, such as the singular smokestack and wheel designs, from the heavily faded Marmon 97 seen on-screen. In robot mode, he sports faux-kibble windows and, amusingly, ''two'' false smokestacks. Unfortunately, due to the way his arms transform, he lacks actual elbow joints, which makes the lower forearm as the only poseable section. Optimus can wield weapons with longer posts while his hands are in a "default" 90° position. Also, while you transform him back to truck mode, his hands must be in the same sideways position to ensure the truck kibble is properly flushed.

:Optimus includes a spring-loaded missile firing "ion cannon" modeled after Megatron's shotgun from ''Dark of the Moon'', with the missile features a sculpted shotgun nozzle on the front section. It can be held in his hand or attached to the top of the truck cab or truck bed via 5mm post, and, in an unadvertised feature, sports tabs on the rear-most handle that allow the [[Megatron (Movie)/toys#Voyager Class toys 4|''Dark of the Moon'' Voyager Class Megatron toy]] to wield it.

:In time-honored tradition, Prime's instructions depict the toy with an alternate "[[Retool#Gang-molded alternate parts|pretooled]]" head – in this case, a version with the faceplate deployed, used on the ''[[Transformers: Platinum Edition|Platinum Edition]]'' and "Rusty" releases of the figure (see below). Additionally, his [[packaging]] [[stock photography]] depicts him with extra white/silver [[Paint operation|paint detail]]s, especially on his chest and wheel rims, as well as having gray upper arms with red details, among other differences.

:Despite his relatively small truck mode (which is almost as small as a Deluxe class toy, but slightly larger than his ''Generation 1'' toy's truck) he is quite tall. Due to the lack of molded trailer hitches, Evasion Mode Optimus Prime cannot tow the [[Armored Weapons Platform#Voyager Class toys|Mechtech Trailer]], though it can be hooked with the truck's cavity, albeit slightly lifted up.

:The TakaraTomy version, part of the first wave of ''[[Movie Advanced Series]]'' toys, is dubbed "Classic Optimus Prime", and opts for a deco closer to Prime's previous on-screen appearances, omitting the blue paint on his feet and hands to reveal the gray plastic underneath, and adding new paint details all over. Instead of painting it in clear light blue, his light-piping eyes is neutered with opaque light blue paint. In terms of quality control, at least ''one'' sample has missing its silver paint on the head's left cheek. Moreover, there is a variant that comes with his faceplated head sculpt.{{fact|Like, which one?}}

:The faceplated version of the mold was used to make [[Nemesis Prime (AOE)#Toys|Nemesis Prime]].

**''Japanese ID number:'' '''AD01'''
**''Japanese release date:'' '''2014-[[May 17|05-17]]'''
**''Accessories:'' Sword of Judgment, Vector Shield

:Part of the first wave of ''Age of Extinction: Generations'' Leader Class toys, this is yet ''another'' completely new "big" Optimus Prime figure. While smaller than the First Edition toy, this one features more silver and chrome paint in vehicle mode, a more poseable robot mode, and a Vector Shield accessory instead of the Sentinel Shield. Unlike the First Edition figure, Leader Class Optimus Prime's pauldrons and hip-skirts are formed from truck kibble, giving him a marginally smaller backpack. His accessories have roughly the same functionality as the First Edition toy, with his sword being hand-held and pegged onto his hands or storing underneath the truck, and his shield mounting onto his left forearm or storing on the back of the truck. Additionally, the sword sheath underneath the truck can be folded up and used in robot mode.

:It should be noted that this Optimus Prime can accommodate the [[Dual Energon Swords#Dark of the Moon|Battle Blade]] accessories to recreate the scene of him fighting against Galvatron.

:This figure was only made available as a store [[exclusive]] in parts of Europe, at least in the United Kingdom (at Argos) and Germany (at Rossmann drug stores).

:Apparently, early plans for the shield were to have it colored gold and silver, but it was later changed to gray and red. When a hand-painted [[prototype]] of the toy was first displayed at the 2013 New York Comic Con, the shield was colored yellow and silver; in addition, the original versions of the official Hasbro [[stock photography|stock photos]] also depict the gold color, but the versions featured on the back of the toy's [[packaging]] were edited so they would accurately depict the final toy's colors for the shield. Meanwhile, the versions of the stock photos provided to websites and online retailers depict the shield in its final colors for the robot mode, whereas the vehicle mode photo is the unedited version featuring the shield's original colors. Furthermore, UK-based retailer Argos also featured unedited versions of the stock photos for both modes in one of its catalogs, causing some confusion among fans.<ref name="argos">[http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/transformers-toy-discussion/991761-uk-getting-different-leader-decos-optimus-yellow-vector-shield.html TFW2005 thread] about outdated stock photos used in Argos catalog.</ref> Sometimes, the spring loaded "[[Automorph Technology|Automorph]]" feature in his head is too strong and causes the head to fly off...

:The [[TakaraTomy]] version, part of the first wave of ''Lost Age: Movie Advanced'' toys, features numerous silver paint details, and alters the deco on his chest to be more screen-accurate, among many other changes.

**''Japanese ID number:'' '''LA01'''
**''Accessories:'' Trailer/Wing Backpack/Battle Station, 2 Hound's guns, 2 Sword-Guns, 2 face-guns, Sword of Judgement

:A roughly Voyager-sized mold of Optimus Prime. He transforms into a Western Star "5700 OP" concept truck as seen in the film, in ''4 steps'':
::1. Press 2 buttons on the truck steps make the side panels pop out in position.
::2. Fold down the front section to transform it's robot mode legs.
::3. Fold back the rear parts to form the kibble.
::4. Position the arms into place, and Optimus will announce "Transform!", with a classic transformation sound effect.
:Like Stomp & Chomp Grimlock, his truck kibble from the back can accommodate One-Steps and Power Battlers (Both Hasbro and TakaraTomy), activating his various voice clips and flashing lights by interacting with the magnets in their feet. He is notably less kibble than other AOE Optimus Primes...from the front, at least. The back and sides are not so promising with large chunks of Western Star truck kibble hanging off his legs, making him look as if he's wearing a petticoat. At least the jetpack helps balance the whole thing out...

:The Sword of Judgement included with this toy is the same mold as the weapon included with the ''Age of Extinction'' leader class Optimus but cast in flat grey rubbery plastic rather than the transparent plastic and paint operations of the initial release. This Optimus Prime erroneously features blue paint on his feet instead of the screen-accurate red.

:This Optimus Prime can tow the [[Armored Weapons Platform#Voyager Class toys|Mechtech Trailer]], though it lets the wheels lift off the ground.

**''Accessories'': "[[Ion blaster|Rifle]]", 2 "[[Dual Energon Swords|Energy Swords]]", [[Matrix of Leadership/toys#MPM4|Matrix of Leadership]]

:Released to conclude the 10th Anniversary of the live-action film series, ''[[The Transformers: Masterpiece|Masterpiece]] Movie Series'' Optimus Prime is a brand new mold that transforms from a 25 cm-tall robot (a little taller than MP-10 [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys#MP10|Convoy]]) resembling how the character appeared in the first live action movie into a <s>Kenworth W900</s> modified Peterbilt 379, in 43 steps, with many of the engineering cues being distinctively based and improved on the [[#Leader_Class_toys_2|''Revenge of the Fallen'' Leader Class mold]].

:The figure has diecast in its feet, shins, and abdomen. It features pinstriped flames, articulated fingers, a headsculpt with a face that can rotate between masked and unmasked modes in a method identical to Armor Knight Optimus Prime's, and an abdomen that opens to reveal a chamber housing a diecast Matrix of Leadership. He comes with said Matrix, his "Rifle" (aka "Ion Cannon"), and a pair of "Energy Swords" that tab in behind his wrists (the hands unfortunately have to be bent forward to accommodate these). All three weapons can combine and store on the trailer hitch in vehicle mode. Speaking of, Optimus can tow the [[Combat Deck (G1)#MP10|trailer]] from ''Masterpiece'' MP-10 Convoy (and its various redecoes).

:Though the figure does a much better job of conveying the on-screen character model than the ROTF Leader Class mold did, there are still a few inaccuracies—most notably the forearm and shoulder pad designs and the head/torso proportions. The final product also lacks certain paint details visible in stock and packaging imagery, such as the blue rings on his feet and the gold on his pelvis. It should be noted that this mold does not combine with [[Jetfire (Movie)#Leader Class toys|Jetfire]].

:The TakaraTomy release replaces the dark gray plastic on the Hasbro version with lighter gray as well as adding the missing paint apps shown on the box.

:In addition, it is very difficult, if not impossible for the vehicle mode to tab together properly. The entire cab assembly breaks apart very easily as the tabs lack sufficient friction to keep it together, resulting in either a gap forming between the front windows and the hood or part of the hood raising up. The pipes that are supposed to connect to the bottom of the smokestacks also don't swing out far enough to properly do so if the feet are tabbed together completely. When attempting to complete the cab assembly, it is advised to apply upward pressure on the front side barrels while pushing the cab downwards. A misassembly error is also present on all versions of the mold, where the roof hinges that connect the sides of the cabin are reversed.

:[[Starscream (G1)/toys#HasbroMP|As]] [[Bumblebee (G1)/toys#HasbroMP|expected]], the [[:File:MPM4Optimus.jpg|Hasbro stock photos]] have the figure mistransformed in both modes. The backpack is a mess, the chest and torso bits aren't properly configured, and the smokestacks in truck mode aren't extended.

:In the United States, Canada, and Hasbro's Asian markets, ''Masterpiece Movie Series'' Optimus Prime was exclusively available from [[Toys"R"Us]], whereas in Spain, he saw a wider release, being at least available via the Spanish subsidiaries of [[Amazon (website)|Amazon]] and Carrefour. It's currently unknown if he was also available in stores, or limited to online purchases. In Greece, he was officially available via at least one toy store chain, aptly named simply "Toys-Shop", but again might have been available online only.

:The second ''Masterpiece Movie Series'' Optimus Prime transforms from a robot based on his appearance in the ''Bumblebee'' mid-credits scene into an unlicensed approximation of a 1970s Marmon cab-over truck, rather than the Freightliner he appears as during the film's ending scene, much like the ''Studio Series'' toy [[#SS38|below]]. He comes with his "Ion Blaster" used in the Cybertron sequences in the film, which can be folded and stored behind his cab. He also includes a new [[Matrix of Leadership/toys#MPM12|Matrix of Leadership]], despite the Matrix never appearing or being mentioned in the movie. Similar to the ''Masterpiece Movies Series'' toy above, Optimus Prime can tow the [[Combat Deck (G1)#MP44|trailer]] included with MP-44 [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys#MP44|Convoy]].

:Unfortunately, due to reduced parts count and possibly cost-cutting measures, the trigonal [[kibble]] on his shoulders ends up slightly protruding on the vehicle mode. This also results in a somewhat amusing appearance for the truck mode, as the placement of the said kibble looks like it has a pair of cat-ears.

:Hasbro [https://www.instagram.com/p/CLtuM8DJeY9/ stock photography] depicts much brighter and saturated colors, as well as clear blue windows. TakaraTomy stock photography (right), which was revealed months later, features darker, more film-accurate colors, and clear grey windows.

:This toy was revealed on February 25, 2021 via live-stream. It will be a [[Target]] exclusive in the United States and a [[Toys"R"Us]] exclusive in Canada.

:Knight Armor Turbo Changer Optimus Prime is a Voyager-sized figure that transforms from truck to robot in just 2-steps: pulling his whole truck kibble to the front then fold down to complete the robot mode, although converting him back requires some few steps. His only articulation is the elbows, and he features 5mm compatible hands. He also features a "Knight Armor" gimmick, which consists of his mask popping out to his head with the press of the button on his chest. Take note that you need to flip back the mask manually before you turn him back into Truck Mode.

:The TakaraTomy release of the figure features extensive paint applications to resembles his on-screen appearances, and his pop-out mask is now vacuum metallized with some gold details.

*'''Optimus Prime''' (Legion Class, 2017)

:Legion Class Optimus Prime is a redeco/retool of the first ''Revenge of the Fallen'' Legends Class figure, with the deco resembling the paint job from Optimus Prime's Western Star "5700 OP" concept truck. While the main body is identical to the figure, the arms and legs are newly tooled, with simple assemblies for the wheels. The retooled legs now features a more solid stopping point, which prevents the center front grill/legs to swing back further. It should be noted that his flame decals are ''painted over'' the side windows.

:The newly tooled legs also feature unreasonably long pegs to secure their connection in vehicle mode. They have a tendency to snap off over time, though this doesn't affect the toy too much.

:In 29th August to 29th September, the entire 1st wave of ''The Last Knight'' Legion Class figures that almost ''massively'' shelfwarmed in Malaysia's Toys"R"Us stores was sold as a giveaway item for the customers who purchased ''The Last Knight'' toys in a price of RM200 (approx $46) in a single receipt.

**''Accessories'': MechTech Blaster/Energon Battle Axe, Gun/missile/flame attachment

:This 2-pack release of Optimus Primes are redecoes of [[Optimus Prime (Movie)/toys#Deluxe Class toys|''Transformers'' (2007) Protoform Optimus Prime]], and [[Optimus Prime (Movie)/toys#Deluxe Class toys 2|''MechTech'' Deluxe Class Optimus Prime]].

:"Cybertron Optimus Prime" new features a darker grey plastic, and mostly shares the same paint mask to the original Deluxe class figure, with added paint details on his head and the mesh-like pattern on the front of his "entry" mode. The silver paint on his chest was slightly changed from the original and he lacks the paint on his feet, his "headlights", and the top of his "entry" mode. Lastly, he features Cyberglyphics on his vehicle mode windows, and the rear sides of the vehicle. His flame attachment is now cast in translucent red plastic with orange sprays.

:Although ''MechTech'' Optimus Prime's deco is similar to the [[Optimus Prime (Movie)/toys#Deluxe Class toys 2|first Deluxe Class figure]], some of his parts (robot shoulder flaps, chest piece/truck front) were recast in blue plastic (with the chest being painted red), and his paint applications on the pelvis, headlights & thighs are omitted. His front truck hood/backpack's deco is altered: the truck steps and the fenders were painted blue, and the gold gradients on the flame tampographs are removed, while he features additional flame tampos on both sides of his front hood, and an Autobot Insignia on his left robot shoulder. He still retains the light-piping gimmick, but cast in clear plastic, with the eyeballs being (halfheartedly) painted with clear blue. His MechTech weapon is cast in transparent orange plastic, with the exception of the scope/lever and the gun barrel, which remained opaque silver plastic due to being cast with unpaintable plastic. He also features Cyberglyphics on the left side of his vehicle mode front hood.

*'''Optimus Prime''' (2017)
**''Accessories'': Sword, Shield

:This Voyager-sized Optimus Prime is an all-new mold (with a similar transformation scheme to [[Megatron (Movie)/toys#Generations|''Age of Extinction'' Voyager Class Galvatron]], notably the shoulders, rooftop backpack, and the leg/wheels combo) based on his Leader Class figure. He features a similar but different transformation scheme, which results in a somewhat clean robot mode, although most of his vehicle kibble hangs on his back. He also features the sword & the shield based on his final design in the movie, albeit the sword being painted similarly to the Armor Knight Optimus Prime's sword. His Sword can store underneath his Vehicle mode or his robot mode backpack, while the shield can be stored on the truck's fifth wheel hitch, which can also tow the trailer included from the Japanese exclusive [[Optimus Prime (Movie)/toys#VoyagerTrailer|Mechtech Voyager]]. Although the pectoral armor can be slightly pushed up a little bit further, the pieces have to actually stop at where the rectangular peg holes are located.

:Surprisingly, this was also the first Hasbro exclusive transforming Movie Optimus Prime figure to be based on the final design seen in ''Age of Extinction''. He even features the forearms that Prime had before obtaining the Sword of Judgement, which unfortunately means that he is inaccurate to his appearance in the battle of Hong Kong and the entirety of ''The Last Knight''. The sword's blade is still painted as the heated-up version from the concept art.

[[File:Shellformer_TLK.jpg|left|200px|thumb|Continuing the family [[Optimus Prime (Movie)/toys#"First Edition" toys|tradition.]]]]
:Like the larger ''First Edition'' figure, you can actually separate the robot mode from his vehicle shell, displaying both of his modes at once... albeit unlike the ''First Edition'' figure, this tweak could sacrifice the even stability between those two separated figures. Some of the pieces like the legs/rear wheels are particularly difficult to separate.

:While he can tow the [[Armored Weapons Platform#Voyager Class toys|Mechtech Trailer]], it cannot turn left or right due to the gray trailer hitch slightly pressing against the trailer's landing gear joints, and it ''slightly'' lifts the trailer with the front-rear tires lifting off the ground. The 2018 giveaway event-exclusive [[Quad Barrel Shotgun#Generations|Quad Barrel Shotgun]] accessory can be used for this figure.

:The Hasbro stock photos of the toy are ''slightly'' mistransformed: his pectoral armor is not folded correctly in robot mode. At least a ''very small'' number of units feature a faceplate-less head sculpt which was probably intended for a later retool, but there is no news about this pretool being released in the future. This figure was also released in Toys"R"Us Japan on May 1st, 2017 as a store exclusive, likewise identical to the Hasbro release.

:The CG stock photos feature extra silver paint apps on the lower thighs and hands, which the final product does not feature.

His Autobot insignia is also moved on the upper back section of the air dam. He is packaged in a stylish, display-case-like-box similar to later ''Transformers: Alternators'' releases and the Hasbro Toy Shop/SDCC 2011 exclusive figure.

:Hilariously, Optimus Prime also comes with an ''authentic tire piece'' from a Western Star 5700XE truck (no seriously, look it up.).

:In an amusing (but glaring) example of poor quality control in a Takara product, the back of the packaging features a small amount of [[Engrish]], notably the word "kinetic" being written as "''Kinetic'''k'''''". The bio also mentions the elemental metal as the "Cyber-Matter" living metal, which is used for the Aligned continuity family. Oddly, TakaraTomy's stock photo of the robot mode figure was later used as a cutout "battle figure" included with Telebi Magazine's [[Megatron (Movie)/toys#TVMagazineEZ|Burning Megatron]].

:The Calibur Axe was later redecoed into "Bronze Caliber Axe", as a giveaway accessory for the 3rd ''The Last Knight Final Battle Campaign'' in Japan. In 2018, Optimus Prime is released along with [[Megatron (Movie)/toys#TLKLeader|Megatron]] as part of the TakaraTomy Mall exclusive "Optimus Prime VS Megatron" set.

:Released as part of a new line called ''[[Transformers Tribute]]'', Orion Pax is a redeco of ''Titans Return'' [[Kup (G1)/toys#Titans Return|Sergeant Kup]], and transforms from a red-and-blue Cybertronic pickup truck which is also an homage to <s>Generation 1 [[Crosshairs (G1)#Generation 1|Crosshairs]]'s vehicle mode </s> [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys#Collector's Edition|G1 Optimus's e-HOBBY toy]]. His Titan Master, retooled from [[Recoil (G1)#Generations|Flintlock]], features a new face that is based on the [[Optimus Prime (G1)#Deluxe|''Thrilling 30'' Orion Pax toy]]. As a redeco of the Kup mold, Orion Pax still suffers the leg panel misassembly.

:The set also includes a redeco of [[Optimus Prime (WFC)/toys#Generations|''Generations War for Cybertron'']] Optimus Prime figure, which changes the original figure's dark red plastic to a brighter, more vibrant red, changes the gray plastic to a darker charcoal tone, changes the "windows" from gray to nearly black, and replaces most of the original figure's pink-ish red paint details (which were yellow on the redeco from the "Rage over Cybertron" three-pack) to teal.

:The use of a G1-based Orion Pax design and an Aligned-based Optimus Prime design with Movie Optimus Prime packaging art makes it hard to know where on the wiki this should go, but given the general movie-themed bent of the ''Tribute'' line, we're putting it here. Continuing the tradition, the 2-pack was first released in some Asian countries like Taiwan without any prior announcement from Hasbro itself.

**''Accessories'': Two [[Dual Energon Swords|Energon Sword]]s, "Forest Fight" backdrop (1st version)

:''[[Studio Series]]'' Optimus Prime transforms from a robot into a Peterbilt 379 semi-truck. He comes with a pair of [[Dual Energon Swords|Energon Sword]]s, which can be mounted onto his arms or store on the back of his robot mode or truck mode. The figure combines engineering concepts from his ''Age of Extinction'' Voyager Class figure with techniques previously used on ''Prime: First Edition'' [[Optimus Prime (WFC)/toys#Prime: First Edition|Optimus Prime]]. He also features a more subdued color scheme compared to other Optimus Prime figures. Like the rest of the ''Studio Series'' figures, the figure prioritizes robot mode [[scale]] and thus stands shorter than his Voyager Class wavemate [[Starscream (Movie)/toys#Studio Series|Starscream]]. The CG renders depict him possessing long smokestacks, but the final product has them shortened... again. He also comes with a cardboard backdrop display depicting the forest battle from ''Revenge of the Fallen''.

:While the 5mm compatible arms can fit with most weapons with the same post size, some of the weapons' handles can barely fit on it due to either the slightly thickened tab or sculpted thin panels.

:The rear truck cabin/back kibble can turn slightly floppy over time in robot mode, as there are no tabs and holes to secure it. This mold is not meant to combine with [[Jetfire (Movie)#Generations|Jetfire]], although it can be achieved with some [[Fan mode|fiddling]]. However, it ''can'' carry (but not combine with) ''Studio Series'' 44 Optimus Prime's trailer.

:While stock photos and renders show the figure with a faceplate, this [https://www.facebook.com/transformers/photos/a.153259298077606.36631.146805978722938/1859790330757819/?type=3&theater image] posted by the Transformers Facebook page shows him with his mouth exposed.

A running change was made, changing the blades to be more translucent. The semi-translucent blades release features a date code "73461", whereas the translucent orange blades version features a date code written as "80171".

**''TakaraTomy ID number'': '''SS-25'''

**''Accessories'': [[Ion blaster]], "Highway Showdown" backdrop

:Released to commemorate the 10th anniversary of ''[[Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (film)|Revenge of the Fallen]]'' (though sold under the first ''Transformers'' film's branding), this ''Studio Series'' Optimus Prime is an extensive retool of the figure above, featuring many new parts, namely a new backpack, chest piece, Back of thighs, forearms, a (removable) abdominal area, and lower legs with a pair of non-transforming fenders. These new parts lead to [[Show-accuracy|a better resemblance to his appearance in the first two movies]] and allow him to combine with ''Studio Series'' [[Jetfire (Movie)#Generations|Jetfire]] to form "Jetwing Optimus Prime," while resulting in a somewhat more involved transformation. His color scheme features a much higher contrast than the previous release. Unfortunately, as a trade-off for having a more accurate robot mode, his vehicle mode suffers; his front drive tires lift off the ground, he’s missing the toolboxes behind his fuel tanks, some of his robot mode kibble is exposed beneath his doors, and several of the floodlights above his windshield are gone.

[[File:Jet Optimus SS.jpg|left|thumb]]
:Instead of Energon Swords, he now comes with an [[Ion blaster]] like that used in the battle of [[Mission City]]. It can be stored on various rectangular peg holes on Prime's vehicle mode or on the larger rectangular pegs on his cab nose/forearms or robot mode back. While Optimus can use the first mold's blades, the new backpack's design prevents the swords from being stored, and using the intended "underslung" grip displaces his forearm armor slightly. He also comes with a cardboard backdrop display depicting the highway fight with [[Bonecrusher (Movie)|Bonecrusher]] from the first ''Transformers'' film. Since the Leader Class figure below is a redeco of this one, it should come as no surprise that this one is fully compatible with the trailer and jet pack.

:As the front grills rely on the hook-and-tab assembly to complete the truck mode and combined to the fact that they're molded in translucent plastic with silver entirely painted on it, the painted tabs can chip off after many transformations, slightly breaking the front grill assembly apart, leaving a ''very small'' gap. Care must be taken when combining him with Jetfire, as it can place much stress on the hinges that the grills are connected to.

:The packaging stock photo features him having a misassembled hip, which is facing backwards. Speaking of misassembly, a small amount of Optimuses have two left or right upper arms. These errors prevent the front section from fully transforming. This can be identified by viewing the front section while he's still in-package.

:His rear wheels were later reused for [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys#War for Cybertron: Earthrise|''Earthrise'' Optimus Prime]].

**''Accessories'': Ion blaster, "[[Golden Gate Bridge|San Francisco Bridge]]" backdrop

:The third ''Studio Series'' Optimus Prime is based on his appearance in ''[[Bumblebee (film)|Bumblebee]]'', and as such closely resembles the [[Optimus Prime (G1)|G1 Optimus design]]. He transforms into an unlicensed approximation of a 1970s Marmon cab-over truck, rather than the Freightliner he appears as during the film's final scene. Optimus comes with the [[Ion blaster]] he is seen wielding in the film's Cybertron sequences and a backdrop featuring the [[Golden Gate Bridge]] where he meets up with Bumblebee.

:While his truck mode scales with most of the ''Studio Series'' brethren, Optimus's robot mode shares the same height as his other Optimuses in this section, which means that he towers over his original size in the film. Unlike his appearance in the movie, this Optimus's design closely resembles [[Mark Yang]]'s concept art of the character, complete with flat feet. Unlike most of the ''Studio Series'' figures, this Optimus doesn't have any insignia tampographed or sculpted on. The silver weathering on his stomach varies from figure-to-figure.

:Unfortunately, the grey lower leg panels tend to disconnect/dislodge if the feet are swiveled, or if the pressure is applied downwards while standing. The silver-painted hinged panels on the sides of his truck mode (and to an extent, the painted crotch) are prone to chipping due to being involved in the transformation.

:This Optimus Prime cannot tow the [[Armored Weapons Platform#Voyager Class toys|MechTech Trailer]] due to the still-too-far-forward hitch port. It can, however, hitch up properly with the ''Studio Series'' Leader Class trailer below, though the fifth wheel's 5mm hole isn't wide enough to properly connect with the 7mm hitching peg. Placing the peg in the hitch holds it loosely in place, which is fine for static posing but likely to fall off with play.

:This toy was one of the items that was released as part of Hasbro's Transformers 35th Anniversary promotional mailer box<ref>https://news.tfw2005.com/2019/05/21/transformers-35th-anniversary-promo-box-in-hand-388546</ref> and was also given a repaint as part of TakaraTomy's own [[Optimus Prime (Movie)/toys#35th Anniversary|35th Anniversary exclusive set]].

**''Accessories'': Trailer/[[Armored Weapons Platform]]/Omega Combat Armor, 2 cannons, [[Energon-axe]], [[Dual Energon Swords|Energon Sword]], Shield, Ion blaster, abs piece, "Battle of Chicago" backdrop (2nd version)

:This Optimus Prime is a redeco/retool of the second toy with a new stomach area that is molded to be accurate to his appearance in ''Dark of the Moon'', complete with a new trailer forming his weapons platform and combat armor. He also comes with two cannons, an energon axe, a shield, an energon sword, and a slightly redecoed (de-decoed?) ion blaster from the second toy, losing its blackened barrel. His fellow Leader Class Autobot, [[Jetfire (Movie)#Studio Series|Jetfire]], comes packaged with a replacement ''Transformers'' and ''Revenge of the Fallen''-accurate abdomen piece, allowing them to combine... though the piece is color-matched to Optimus's first ''Studio Series'' 05 release, a figure that lacks this figure's new molding and is thus incompatible with Jetfire. In addition to the new deco and molding, the hinges in his back that the panels with the fuel tanks are attached to now have pins, preventing the pieces from popping off when swiveling them into position during conversion.

:In terms of deco, Optimus features gradient orange paint on his forearms/truck front which the Voyager Class release didn't have, while the formerly transparent parts are now cast in opaque blue plastic, with both his real and [[kibble#"Faux-parts"|faux windows]] painted silver. Meanwhile, the CG stock renders feature several color and deco details that are inaccurate to the final toy; notably, the joints on his grille section are shown to be orange rather than gray, the windows are shown to be transparent rather than opaque, and all the weapons are shown to be painted, even though the only weapon that actually features ''any'' paint on the final toy is the sword. Conversely, both the CG render ''and'' the near-final stock photo of the robot mode show the new abdomen piece as being painted in a single red color, while the final product (including the TakaraTomy stock photos) have the details in the center section painted in movie-accurate silver.

:The CG render on the front packaging is a rather lazily-edited version of the Optimus Prime art (complete with ''Revenge of the Fallen''-styled abdomen), with the Jetwing unit slapped on his back. There are also a few obvious design oversights, with no official instructions on how to store the Ion Blaster and no actual means of attaching the shield to Prime's arm in a shield-like manner. And while Prime himself has been improved to prevent parts popping off, the dark grey "shoulder straps" on the Jetwing have a frustrating tendency to pop off due to the raised rectangular details directly under them, meant to hold them in place with friction but instead causing the part to flex and deform under pressure.

: Despite the figure's size classification, Prime himself is Voyager-sized (obviously, seeing as he's a retool of a previous ''Studio Series'' Voyager). The Leader Class price point comes from the extra accessories that he comes packaged with.

**''TakaraTomy ID number'': '''PF SS-02'''
**''Hasbro ID number'': '''SS-02'''
**''Accessories'': "Ion Blaster"

:As part of the first wave of TakaraTomy's ''[[Transformers Premium Finish|''Premium Finish'']]'' subline, Optimus Prime is yet another detailed redeco of the [[#SS38|third ''Studio Series'' mold]] with an ''even greater'' focus on increased accuracy to his appearance in [[Bumblebee_(film)|the ''Bumblebee'' movie]], even moreso than the 35th Anniversary figure above. Hence, unlike the 'clean' approach taken by the 35th Anniversary figure, this Optimus is cast in less saturated colors and features additional paint operations replicating the slight amounts of weathering and grime that were present on his CG model. He also includes the same ion blaster weapon as the other releases of this mold, now cast in gunmetal plastic.

:Oddly, the stock photos lack silver paint on the front of the vehicle mode that the [[#SS38 |original mold]] has.

Premium Series

2021-09-19T02:03:54Z

B-712: /* Toyline */

The '''Premium Series''' sub-line was the second and final [[subline imprint]] of the [[Transformers (film)|2007 Transformers movie]] [[Transformers (2007 toyline)|toy line]], following the [[AllSpark Power]] sub-line.

The Premium Series consisted entirely of [[redeco]]s of existing toys from the movie line, each sporting an improved (oftentimes metallic) and more [[Show-accuracy|movie-accurate]] finish and paint applications, plus movie-accurate or movie-inspired [[retool]]s and new accessories in two cases. Four of the toys were released as store exclusives, whereas the rest was available as part of the mass retail assortments.

When the Premium Series was officially announced by Hasbro in October 2007, it was confirmed to include a few redecos that had already been released by that point (and therefore didn't sport any indication that they were supposed to be part of a "Premium Series" on the packaging), as well as various other toys that wouldn't be revealed until later.

==Toyline==
'''Mass retail Deluxe Class toys'''

*[[Jazz (Movie)#Premium|Autobot Jazz]] (redeco of Deluxe Autobot Jazz)
*[[Barricade (Movie)/toys#Premium|Barricade]] (redeco of Deluxe Barricade)
*[[Bumblebee (Movie)/toys#Premium|Bumblebee]] (redeco/remold of Deluxe Concept Camaro Bumblebee, sporting the same "battle mask" head sculpt as [[AllSpark Power]] Stealth Bumblebee)

{{note|Bumblebee was one of the three "Premium" toys also released by [[TakaraTomy]] in Japan, as MA-22 Bumblebee Battle Mode. Other than a sticker on the packaging (which was the same one also used by Hasbro) identifying him as a Japanese release, he was entirely identical to the Hasbro version.}}

'''Mass retail Voyager Class toys'''

*[[Ironhide (Movie)/toys#VoyagerPremium|Ironhide]] (redeco of Voyager Class Ironhide)
*[[Blackout (Movie)#Premium|Blackout]] (redeco of Voyager Class Blackout, including a redeco of the [[Scorponok (Movie)#Premium|Scorponok]] mini-figure in a color scheme based on the Deluxe Class Scorponok toy)

{{note|Blackout was one of the three "Premium" toys also released by [[TakaraTomy]] in Japan. Unlike the other two, however, which were available as mass market releases, Blackout was a Lawson [[exclusive]], officially named "Blackout version 4500X", sold in the original toy's packaging (which was identical to the original version's Hasbro packaging) with additional stickers, one identifying the toy as a Japanese release, the other one as a "limited" release, and available ''before'' the mass retail Hasbro version came out. So essentially, Hasbro used the same colors and paint masks from the Lawson exclusive Blackout for their mass market "Premium" Blackout, save for minimally different details.}}

'''Mass retail Leader Class toys'''

*[[Optimus Prime (Movie)/toys#PremiumLeader|Optimus Prime]] (redeco/remold of Leader Class Optimus Prime, sporting a new, more [[Show-accuracy|movie-accurate]] head sculpt and replacing the gun with a detachable, movie-inspired blade)

{{note|Optimus Prime was one of the three "Premium" toys also released by [[TakaraTomy]] in Japan, as MA-21 Optimus Prime Battle Mode. Unlike Bumblebee and Blackout, there are noticeable differences between the Hasbro and the TakaraTomy versions of Optimus Prime: The Hasbro version only uses a few, semi-random and incomplete silver paint applications for the vehicle mode and omits several paint details from the original release of the mold in return; whereas the TakaraTomy version, on the other hand, sports a [[vacuum metallizing|vacuum metallized]] (chromed) paint job on almost all gray/silver vehicle mode parts, most notably the front grille.}}

*[[Megatron (Movie)/toys#PremiumLeader|Megatron]] (redeco of Leader Class Megatron)

'''Target exclusives'''

*[[Optimus Prime (Movie)/toys#Robovision|Robo-Vision Optimus Prime]] (redeco of Voyager Class Optimus Prime)

{{note|This toy was available long before the Premium Series was officially announced by Hasbro. As a consequence, no indication that it is supposed to be part of any kind of "Premium Series" can be found on its packaging. Even more oddly, this version was actually available from Target stores a few weeks ''before'' the regular, non-"Premium" version of this mold was officially released.}}

*[[Starscream (Movie)/toys#DeepSpace|Deep Space Starscream]] (redeco of Voyager Class Starscream)

'''Best Buy exclusives '''

*[[Ratchet (Movie)/toys#Premium|Autobot Ratchet]] (metallic [[Show-accuracy|movie-accurate]] redeco of Voyager Class Ratchet)
*[[Megatron (Movie)/toys#VoyagerPremium|Megatron]] (metallic movie-accurate redeco of Voyager Class Megatron)

{{note|These toys were available shortly before the Premium Series was officially announced by Hasbro. As a consequence, no indication that they are supposed to be part of any kind of "Premium Series" can be found on their packaging.}}

'''Walmart exclusives'''

* The Legacy of Bumblebee (movie-inspired minor [[redeco]] of [[Transformers: Classics|Classic]] Deluxe [[Bumblebee (G1)/toys#Transformers (2007)|Bumblebee]], regular Movie Deluxe Class "Premium" [[Bumblebee (Movie)/toys#Legacy|Bumblebee]] and regular ''[[Transformers Animated (toyline)|Animated]]'' [[Bumblebee (Animated)/toys#Transformers (2007)|Bumblebee]]

{{note|While not technically a distinct Premium Series release, this [[Walmart]] exclusive three-pack contains a "Premium" Bumblebee that is unchanged from its single release.}}

==Legacy==
The ''Premium Series'' was later revived by Hasbro Asia with the ''[[Asia Premium Series]]''.

The idea of "premium" redecos of previously released toys was also later revived with the ''[[Transformers: Platinum Edition|Platinum Edition]]'' line, which was eventually absorbed into the [[Transformers: Age of Extinction (toyline)|''Age of Extinction'' toy line]].

*'''Sideswipe''' (Legends, 2009)
**''TakaraTomy ID number:'' '''EZ-06'''

: [[Legends Class (2005)|Legends Class]] Sideswipe transforms into a tiny Corvette Stingray concept car. As a Legends toy, he features a simplified transformation sequence that results in swords that consist entirely of door [[kibble]] and barely-noticeable reliefs of his wheel-feet.

:Prototype photos of the toy shows that his faux wheel-feet are painted. This toy was [[redeco]]ed into ''Revenge of the Fallen'' [[Swerve (Movie)|Swerve]].

That the set uses a pair of Legends-class cars and a Deluxe-class jet means the toys are in a roughly-correct scale to each other... which is borked by the story, in which Fearswoop is supposedly much huger than normal thanks to some unnamed mystic artifact.

*'''Sideswipe''' (Deluxe, 2009)
**''TakaraTomy ID number:'' '''RA-04'''

:Sideswipe transforms into a silver Corvette Stingray concept car. In this mode, he sits so low that it's difficult to roll him without scraping his undercarriage, unless you perform some careful shaping after transforming him. Sideswipe's [[Mech Alive]] gimmick is in his knees—bending his legs causes the blue armor plates on his knees to extend. He does have wheels in his feet like his character model, but the toy's feet have been designed in such a way that it can stand alone. Rounding out his robot mode awesomeness, his hips have an "invisible joint" and moving pistons, while his "blades" are geared to spin out in unison. He is ''totally awesome''.

:Sideswipe's instructions aren't clear as to how his torso is supposed to connect with his chest in robot mode. The torso piece has a square peg on top of it and there is a corresponding square hole between the two screws holding the front of his chest together. Getting his torso section in front of his arm struts can be a somewhat snug fit.

:This mold was [[retool]]ed into ''Revenge of the Fallen'' [[Swerve (Movie)|Swerve]].

:During part of 2010, [http://www.hasbro.com/transformers/en_US/discover/transformers-toy-giveaway.cfm Hasbro did a promotion] wherein US fans could receive three free Deluxes in exchange for receipts showing the purchase of $25 or more of select Transformers product. As noted in [http://www.allspark.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=69645&st=0 this thread over at Allspark.com], and later confirmed by [http://web.archive.org/web/20110221171904/http://www.entertainmentearth.com/prodinfo.asp?number=HT83971G3 this listing here], Sideswipe was one of a pool of eight figures (all from the same wave) from which the free Deluxes were drawn, with several people having noted receiving him.

:This redeco of Sideswipe features red translucent windows, a large black racing stripe running down the center of the car and fading black stripes on the doors. Like many Autobots in the NEST Global Alliance ''Revenge of the Fallen'' toyline refresh, he features a version of the NEST logo [[tampograph]]ed on him.

====''Human Alliance''====
[[File:ROTF HumanAlliance Sideswipe Epps.jpg|thumb|upright=1.67|Training with Sergeant Epps really beefed him up!]]
*'''Sideswipe / Tech. Sergeant Epps''' (Human Alliance, 2009)
**''TakaraTomy ID number:'' '''RA-22'''
**''Accessories:'' Missile

:Like all [[Human Alliance]] figures, Sideswipe is designed to allow his accompanying human figure, in this case [[Robert Epps]], to ride inside.

:While in many ways simply a larger version of the Deluxe toy, it has several changes. The wheeled feet may now fold out into a stand system, allowing Sideswipe to stand without having to balance on the wheels, or be left as is to retain a more rounded look, and his blades are now rubberized to prevent injury and damage, as the blades lay flat underneath in vehicle mode. The sword-hands can also be slotted into a gear system connected to the front wheels, which causes them to spin as the wheels are turned. The passenger's seat may either be used as a seat for Epps, or turned into a missile launcher slung over Sideswipe's left shoulder.

:Like the Deluxe figure, the HA Sideswipe is something of a [[shellformer]] and suffers from an excessive amount of [[kibble]], as nearly the entire top of the vehicle mode is folded up into a backpack, with only the rear bumper being incorporated as Sideswipe's chest. Partly as the reason, it is also quite hard for him to be able to stand up, as his thigh joints are tight and the rubber tubing on his thighs can get quite tense during posing, constantly wanting to reset his torso to tilt back up and as well as wanting his legs to be straight, thus overbalancing him and making him fall on his backpack.

:A great deal goes unmentioned in the instructions: in addition to the seats behind Sideswipe's shoulders, there are pegs on both forearms that a Human Alliance human figure can stand on or have plugged into their back, but neither are accomplished very well; the pegs also interfere with free rolling in vehicle mode, scraping on the ground. There is a fold-out handle under the swiveling rear window section, which seems to serve no purpose; it's possible to fold this section over Sideswipe's head (and, by extension, any human figure sitting behind his right shoulder), but the handle is only reached if the human figure has its left arm raised straight up and the seat is in just the right position. There are also small tabs that fold out of Sideswipe's waist to make him more movie-accurate. The small turret on his right shoulder can be slid upwards slightly, allowing it to clear the shoulder much better. Sideswipe also has an extra hinge near either thigh swivel that is completely hindered by the rubber tubing on his legs. Finally, Sideswipe has a battle mask; or rather, his normal head '''is''' his battle mask. A thin sliver in the middle of his face flips back to reveal his "real" face. It looks... odd. It's probably best to leave the thing down and never speak of this feature.

====''Fast Action Battlers''====
[[File:Sideswipe ROTF FAB toy.jpg|thumb|upright=1.67|Has anyone seen my proportions?]]
*'''Battle Blade Sideswipe''' (Fast Action Battler, 2009)

: This roughly Deluxe-sized version of Sideswipe is a kid-friendly version with a simpler transformation, transforming from a Corvette Stingray car to a simplified version of his robot mode presented in the ''Revenge of the Fallen'' movie. His main [[gimmick]] is his spring-loaded arm-blades which automatically swing down when pulled upward.

*'''Sideswipe''' (Gravity Bot, 2009)
**''TakaraTomy ID number:'' '''GB-04'''

: Part of the second wave of [[Gravity Bot]]s, Sideswipe uses gravity-activated [[autotransformation]] to turn into a [[super deformed]] Corvette Stingray when laid on his back. When the car is stood back up, it returns to its boxy robot mode.

: The toy features no [[articulation]] whatsoever, but that doesn't matter because he's awesome.

:Robot Replicas Sideswipe is a non- transforming, but highly detailed and articulated interpretation of his robot mode from the movie. He features highly posable legs, arms, feet, head, waist, neck and shoulders, making him both an awesome kid's toy and display piece.
:Funnily enough, despite the Robot Replica promise of total movie-accuracy, his arm-blades are [[For safety reasons|considerably shortened]] and are a weird metallic blue colour, rather than the silver/gray you might expect.

:Sadly, his "Wheel feet" do not roll, making Sideswipe somewhat immobilized.

*'''Sidearm Sideswipe''' (Deluxe, 2010)
**''TakaraTomy ID number:'' '''AA-06'''
**''Accessories:'' Two flare launchers

:''[[Transformers (2010 toyline)|Transformers]]'' Sideswipe is a new sculpt designed for greater robot mode accuracy compared to his original Deluxe Class mold, and replaces his swords with twin hand-held flare launcher pistols (which were briefly used during the Egypt battle in ''Revenge of the Fallen''). Sideswipe now has toe and heel spurs so that he can balance on a flat surface without falling over, a problem that the previous Deluxe Sideswipe suffered. Both the black and silver molded "springs" on his lower legs are compatible with any weaponry using [[C joint|3mm clips]]. Additionally, the guns can be attached to flip-up panels and swung out in vehicle mode to form an [[attack mode]] of sorts, or they can swivel back while in this configuration to store on his back in either mode. Interestingly, despite the fact that his hands are specifically sculpted with grooves to accommodate his launchers, Sideswipe is also capable of wielding [[5 mm post]]s.

:Hasbro added a red deco design to the front of the car and red windows in an effort to differentiate him from the previous Sideswipe molds. [[Stock photography|Stock photos]] on the back package and instructions show the front deco extending to the side panels, giving it a flame appearance. The Japanese [[TakaraTomy]] release of Sidearm Sideswipe drops red flame details in favour of keeping the silver paint on his wheels, which Hasbro dropped due to budgetary reasons. This release also changed the windows from red to a dark purple, for a more screen accurate appearance.

:His head's [[light-piping]] is sculpted out of the same red plastic as his windows, but his eyes are painted blue. Oddly, Hasbro's stock photos show him with only one eye painted.

:Sidearm Sideswipe was also on the receiving end of a late retool, closing off the tops of the hip balljoint sockets, severely limiting his outward leg motion. There is a perfect outline where the change was made which one can use as a cutting guide if so inclined. This change was likely made to reduce stress on the rubber tubing connected to his thighs.

:''[[Transformers: Dark of the Moon (toyline)|Dark of the Moon]]'' [[Cyberverse (toyline)|Cyberverse]] Sideswipe is a new mold based on his open-top Stingray concept vehicle.

*'''Sideswipe''' (MechTech Deluxe, 2011)
**''TakaraTomy ID number:'' '''DA08'''
**''Accessories:'' MechTech Blaster/[[Cybertanium]] Sword

:Part of the second wave of ''[[Transformers: Dark of the Moon (toyline)|Dark of the Moon]]'' ''[[MechTech]]'' Deluxe Class toys, this version of Sideswipe is an all new tooling, with a different [[transformation scheme]] compared to the previous Deluxe versions of the character. Sideswipe changes into a Corvette Stingray concept convertible in a light grey/beige color scheme and open top. The interior is highly detailed, with seats, dashboard and steering wheel all molded into the compartment, though it's missing its floorboards. The box art and the instructions can't seem to agree which way the tail lights (which are his toe/heel spurs) are supposed to point in robot mode - the stock photo used on the card and main instruction image show them pointing forward, while the instructions themselves indicate they should point backward, implying it is probably the correct way. His arm blades are now a single piece, rather than the two piece blades from previous molds.

:Underneath the front hood (which ends up on his back) is some sculpted, unpainted faux-[[kibble]] in the form of four circles in a row, which are meant to represent the four exhaust pipes on the back of the vehicle, which usually end up on his back in robot mode. The ''actual'' pipes still end up on his back. They're just near his waist.

:Sideswipe's MechTech weapon, a large blaster, can convert to a runed Cybertanium sword with the press of a button. The weapon can be stored in any of the three MechTech ports in either mode, all of which include the spring-loaded filler piece to hide them when not in use. While the box art shows the blade of the flip-out sword painted blue with white [[Cybertronix]] runes, the final version opts for bare gunmetal plastic instead.

:The figure suffers from a small design flaw in that the front hood of the car is attached by such tiny pegs that it pops off quite easily.

:This mold was [[retool]]ed into [[Darksteel (DOTM)|Darksteel]].

As such, nearly all of his vehicle mode parts (and thus, most of his robot mode) are cast in translucent clear plastic, with the rear of his vehicle mode being left unpainted, the middle having painted scan lines, and the front having a heavy amount of [[paint operation]]s in order to cover the clear plastic.

*'''Sideswipe''' (Deluxe, 2011)
**''Accessories:'' Two flare launchers

: This version of Sideswipe is a [[Walmart]]-exclusive redeco of Sidearm Sideswipe. Featuring a new racing-themed deco, he is one of the most fanwank-filled mass released toys ever, featuring a small [[Transcendent Technomorph|TransTech]] [[:File:Transtech Autobot symbol.png|Autobot symbol]] on the rear fenders, an endorsement of "[[Lithone (planet)|Lithonian Drivetrain]]" on the front fenders, another for "[[Maccadam's Old Oil House|Maccadam's]]" on his trunk, one further logo that for "[[Sunstreaker (disambiguation)|Sun bro]]", another ad for "[[Axalon (BW)|Axalon]] [[Rattrap (BW)|Rattraps]]" (with the slogan "Safe. Humane. Yeah, right!" underneath), and finally the number 04, a nod to [[Sideswipe (G1)/toys|the original Sideswipe]]'s [[List of Japanese ID numbers|Japanese ID number]]. Oh, and he's particularly [[Sideswipe (G1)/toys#Generation 2|blue and yellow]].

: Sideswipe's stock photos are slightly different from the final product, rendering his 04 in a different, non-italicized font and the front portion of the car mode having a strange faint checkerboard pattern painted on.

: He also looks not unlike ''[[Speed Stars]]'' [[Bluestreak (Speed Stars)|Bluestreak]].

: He was made available the UK as a Sainsbury's exclusive, and in Australia and New Zealand as a [[Kmart]] exclusive.

It also shows Sideswipe holding Icepick in his weapon mode, with a legally-cautious sticker saying "SIDESWIPE '''CANNOT''' HOLD WEAPON" at the back, as Sideswipe's Human Alliance mold isn't designed to and cannot hold MechTech [[5 mm post|post]]s.

:''Slammer is an [[Autobot]] [[drone]] from the [[Generation 1 continuity family]].''
[[File:Slammer sixgun scamper.jpg|upright=2.2|thumb|Slammer at left, with his alliterative domestic partners]]
For a drone controlled by [[Metroplex (G1)|Metroplex]], '''Slammer''' does not do much. He is usually seen in the form of Metroplex's left rear tower, though he is rarely seen in tank form.

Sometimes, Slammer is a sentient Transformer armed with the power of the [[C.O.M.B.A.T. System|C.O.M.B.A.T.]] technology.

==Fiction==
===Marvel ''The Transformers'' comics===
Metroplex can maintain control of Slammer over a maximum range of 40 miles. Slammer's [[Mortar cannon|cannon]] shoots explosive rocket-propelled mortar shells with a range of 1.5 miles. {{storylink|The Transformers Universe|Metroplex's ''Universe'' profile}}

===''The Transformers'' cartoon===
{{voiceactor|[[Chris Latta]] (English; Slammer never spoke, but Latta was cast for the part.)}}
Slammer was often seen when [[Autobot City (G1)|Autobot City]] looked like Metroplex's city mode, which was usually right before or after Metroplex transformed. When in tank mode, Slammer was accompanied by his partners [[Scamper]] and [[Six-Gun]].

Slammer appeared alongside Scamper and Six-Gun when the latter interrogated the [[Dinobot (G1)|Dinobots]] and [[Sky Lynx (G1)|Sky Lynx]] over the recent theft of famous monuments. {{storylink|Thief in the Night}}

Later, Slammer and Scamper responded to [[Swindle (G1)|Swindle's]] intrusion of Metroplex, but were disabled when the [[Decepticon]] blew a hole in the floor, causing them to crash. {{storylink|The Ultimate Weapon}}

===''Legends'' comic===
When Metroplex was rebuilt in a new body, Slammer was incorporated as a stationary cannon normally hidden inside his right arm. Metroplex used his firepower to defeat [[Metrotitan (Zone)|Metrotitan]], then took him with him to the [[Legends World]] where Slammer and his other components assured him they'd always be together. {{storylink|Legends Comic: Bonus Edition Vol. EX (Metroplex)|Bonus Edition Vol. EX}}

**''Takara ID number:'' '''26'''
**''Accessories:'' [[Energo weapon|'Energo' sword]], twin 'stunner' laser rifle, galaxial rocket launcher, 3 rockets

:Grimlock's toy was originally part of [[TakaraTomy|Takara]]'s ''[[Diaclone]]'' Dinosaur Robo series. When [[Hasbro]] imported the toy in 1985 for the ''Transformers'' line, its blue pelvis was changed to red, its sword was changed from chrome to flat red, the Diaclone driver mini-figure was dropped but still retained the cockpit though later releases had it permanently locked shut, and its teeth were altered [[for safety reasons]].

:The original Grimlock changes from robot into a robotic ''{{w|Tyrannosaurus}}'', and comes with a red [[energo weapon|energo-sword]], a black double-barreled rifle, and a rocket launcher with three silver rockets.

:In Japan, he and the other four Dinobots were offered as mail-away items during ''[[Fight! Super Robot Lifeform Transformers: Operation Combination (toyline)|Operation Combination]]''; Grimlock cost 2300 yen (his original retail price) and 2 [[Robot Point]]s.

*'''Grimlock''' ([[Classic Pretender]], [[1989]])
**''Accessories:'' Pretender shell, helmet, "Atom-Smashing Submachine Gun", "rocket launcher" dino-tail

:The [[Classic Pretender]] version of Grimlock is much smaller, simplified and slightly modified, but still transforms into a robotic ''T. rex''. His dino tail becomes a rocket-launcher-gauntlet thing that can be held by either the inner robot or outer shell, but either way has got to be a ''bear'' to aim properly. He came with a large human [[Pretender]] shell with a rather knight-like armor theme, with a helmet and large cannon with a blade on the barrel, giving him a pseudo-sword.

:His shell's head looks a lot like a younger {{w|Ed Asner}}.

:A [[Kmart]] [[exclusive]] in its [[Hasbro]] release, this version of Grimlock is simply the inner robot of his Classic Pretender form without the shell or its accessories, leaving him only his tail/gun.

Grimlock was mostly unchanged from to the Hasbro release, but sported a silver painted face instead of Hasbro's orange painted one.

:In Italy, [[GiG]] released their own version of the Hero Set, named "Set Commandos", instead of the Classic Pretender versions of the toys. Grimlock, was renamed from "Tiran" to "Drago", originally the Italian name of [[Hot Spot (G1)|Hot Spot]]. The "Set Commandos" toys were identical to the Japanese "Hero Set" versions.

**''Accessories:'' Anti-tank cannon partner, "[[particle beam cannon]]"

:Part of the initial assortment of non-transforming [[Action Master]] figures, Grimlock's design combines his cartoon model with extra toy-based detailing. He came with the [[Anti-tank cannon]] "partner" machine which could be ridden by Grimlock (or any other Action Master) or unfolded via spring-loaded [[gimmick]] to form a really ''big'' hand-held "long-range mortar launcher". He is compatible with any other Action Master vehicle or weapon.

:Grimlock's original toy was [[redeco]]ed for release in ''[[Transformers: Generation 2 (toyline)|Generation 2]]'', this time lacking the missile launcher accessory. He was available in three different colors; the first—and rarest—in his original silver (the easiest way to spot if this is a ''Generation 2'' or original is by the "Autobot" [[tampograph]] on his leg), then in a medium turquoise-blue, and finally (and most commonly) in a dark blue.

:The only new toy in the third wave of second-year ''[[Beast Wars: Transformers (toyline)|Beast Wars]]'' Deluxes, Grimlock is a [[redeco]] of [[Dinobot (BW)/toys#Toys|Dinobot]] in gray and gold with black spots, transforming into a "raptor" of some variety. His tail detaches and separates to form a gear-powered, spinning blade weapon, while the central "tail bone" separates to be used as a sword. The entire assembly can store in [[robot mode]] by flipping down the tail-mount and pegging the blade's base to the peg on his lower back. He also has a "mutant mask", halves of a dino-skull that flip up to cover his more robotic head. Thankfully these pieces are not pinned in, and can be easily removed for better clearance. He was also slightly [[retool]]ed from the original mold to have ratcheting shoulders and space for an "energon chip" [[rubsign]].

: Grimlock is extra-notable for suffering from [[Gold Plastic Syndrome]], making his hip-joints in particular prone to snapping off. Grim.

* '''Grimlock''' (2005)
**''Alternator ID number:'' '''9'''
**''Binaltech ID number:'' '''BT-10'''
**''Accessories:'' Engine/gun, energo-sword

: For the ''[[Transformers: Alternators|Alternators]]'' line, Grimlock's [[alternate mode]] was changed from a dinosaur into a [[licensed vehicle alternate modes|licensed]], 1:24 scale silver {{w|Ford Mustang}} with opening doors, hood, and trunk, a detailed interior, [[rubber tires]] and a working steering mechanism. His engine transforms into a double-barreled gun, and he also carries an orange "energo-sword" which can attach to the underside of his vehicle mode. The toy is one of the most-complained-about ''Alternators'' toys, due to its notoriously finicky transformation (with many small steps that must be performed in exactly the right order) and to several pieces which have a tendency to pop off with relatively small amounts of force. And it's a Grimlock who doesn't transform into a ''Tyrannosaurus rex.

: The main difference between Hasbro's ''Alternators'' version of the toy and the Japanese ''Binaltech'' version is that the latter has its vehicle shell partially made out of painted [[die-cast]] metal parts, whereas the ''Alternators'' version is made entirely out of plastic (not counting the rubber tires). In addition, the ''Binaltech'' version's engine/gun and the wheel's rims are [[vacuum metallizing|vacuum-metalized]], whereas they're simply painted silver for the ''Alternators'' version.

:This sculpt was retooled into ''Alternators/Binaltech'' [[Wheeljack (G1)/toys#Alternators/Binaltech|Wheeljack]].

[[File:Grimlockclassicstoy.jpg|upright=1.66|thumb|Me Grimlock want to try new appearance, how me look in thigh high boots and stiletto heels?]]
*'''Grimlock''' (Deluxe, 2006)
**''Accessories:'' Missile launcher, missile, removable tail

: ''[[Transformers: Classics|Classics]]'' Grimlock, a gray and gold ''Tyrannosaurus rex'', is a re-imagined form of his original toy, and is notably designed to run rather than drag (theories on the ''T. rex'' having changed from "caveman adversary" to "Carl Lewis in lizard skin" since the Generation 1 incarnation).

:This mold features a few design elements likely influenced by Grimlock's Pretender toy; his bayonet blaster is an homage to his gun/blade combo weapon from said toy, and his tail detaches to become a handheld weapon as it does for the inner robot of his Pretender toy. Another similarity is the ''T. rex''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s upper-body forming the [[robot mode]] legs (though the ''T. rex'' head forms his feet this time around).

:Grimlock's bayonet blaster (dubbed the "[[Guardian Blaster]]" in his [[Hasbro Transformers Collectors' Club issue 13|TFCC profile]]) can be deployed in either mode and fires a clear red projectile. Both weapons can be stored on his back when not used. As with most ''Classics'' toys, Grimlock features a heat-sensitive [[rubsign]], placed on the left side of the tyrannosaurus torso/his left leg.

:A common complaint about the figure is the size of the peg being too small in relation to the peg-hole, making it impossible to lock the arms into place. The black shoulder flaps above are apparently meant to tab into these and lock the whole thing together, but the flaps are remarkably out of alignment and the tabs themselves are too short to even reach the slots. In addition, the bayonet blaster has a hair-trigger and for no apparent reason, his fist holes are a few fractions of a millimeter too small to accommodate standard 5mm peg accessories that most modern ''Transformers'' toys use.

:An unpainted ''Classics'' Grimlock was used at the [[BotCon 2007]] customization classes to create ''[[Transformers Timelines (toyline)|Timelines]]'' [[Overkill (G1)#Timelines|Overkill]]. The mold was also [[redeco]]ed to make [[Grimlock (SG)#Toys|''Shattered Glass'' Grimlock]] and [[Transformers: Universe (2008 franchise)|''Universe'' (2008)]] Overkill.

:Based upon his appearance from ''[[Transformers: The War Within|The War Within]]'', this version of Grimlock transforms into a Cybertronic heavy tank. This transforming partly die-cast and plastic Grimlock was initially unreleased due to the cancellation of the ''Transformers'' series of ''Titanium'' toys at retail (the line would continue on for ''[[Star Wars (franchise)|Star Wars]]'' at the three-inch scale). The toy was eventually released in the fall of 2008 as a Toys-R-Us exclusive, alongside the also-almost-unreleased War Within [[Prowl (G1)/toys#Titanium Series|Prowl]].

: ''[[Henkei! Henkei! Transformers (toyline)|Henkei!

As with all ''Henkei'' toys, he lacks the heat sensitive rubsign seen on the ''Classics'' release, and instead features vacuum-metalized "chromed" plastic (in a similar [[gimmick]] to the ''Beast Wars'' [[Transmetal]]s toys). The vac-metal is used on his [[beast mode]] feet, as well as the ''Tyrannosaurus'' torso, which was, oddly enough, in Hasbro's original deco plan for ''Classics'' Grimlock.

**''Accessories:'' Energo sword, twin 'stunner' lasers rifle, waiter apron, waiter bow tie, waiter tray, 7 unique waiter glasses, intelligence transfer helmet, crown (reissue exclusive), flame (reissue exclusive)

: Released in March of 2009, ''[[The Transformers: Masterpiece|Masterpiece]]'' Grimlock is based upon his original toy and cartoon model, transforming into an outdated view of the ''Tyrannosaurus'' rather than the more accurate depiction seen on ''Classics'' Grimlock. Of all the Masterpiece figures, Grimlock features both the least complex transformation, as well as the least deviation from his original toy's essential [[transformation|transformation scheme]].

: ''Masterpiece'' Grimlock features the usage of [[die-cast]] metal for his dinosaur mode's toes and an LED mounted within his right fist which illuminates both his gun's barrels and his sword. As a result of said mechanism, the only articulated part of his right hand is the thumb. Similarly his left hand is modeled much like [[Starscream (G1)/toys#Masterpiece|Masterpiece Starscream]]'s hands with the thumb and index finger fully articulated with the remaining fingers joined together. Possibly as a show of good faith regarding the sacrificed articulation, [[TakaraTomy]] designed his alternate mode's arms to be highly poseable, featuring full articulation of the claws with the arms themselves attached to the body with ball joints.

: He features many gimmicks, including the ability to change his eye color in either mode from red to blue with the flip of a switch found at the back of his head in robot mode, and by opening the top of his head in dino mode and switching the eyes around. This allows the owner the choice of representing the use of blue in the cartoon (and his IDW alternate mode) or the use of red in most other media, including his original toy. His tail is connected to his head, and by wiggling and moving it, the head rotates at the base of the neck. Pushing down on his torso in dinosaur mode makes his legs move up higher into his body, and as a result his head will look up. His alt mode's head features jaws that snap shut at the press of a button hidden on his cheek; in addition, it also has a tiny sculpted flame thrower in its mouth, but [[for safety reasons|for your safety]], it does not actually breathe fire (boo). Besides his weapons, he also comes with a cloth apron and bow tie to go with a drinks serving tray he carried in "[[Madman's Paradise]]", as well as the device he used to transfer his super-intelligence into [[Computron (G1)|Computron]] in "[[Grimlock's New Brain]]".

:When he was reissued, he came with a crown redecoed from the King Grimlock release and a new flame attachment to go over his sword.

*'''King Grimlock''' (December, 2009)
**''ID number:'' '''MP-8X'''
**''Accessories:'' Energo sword, twin 'stunner' lasers rifle, crown

:King Grimlock is a redeco of the ''Masterpiece'' Grimlock with a color scheme based on his appearance in the [[The Transformers (Marvel comic)|Generation 1 Marvel comic]]. All of his previously flat gray surfaces are coated in silver paint, his gold chrome is more vibrant, and his previously black plastic is now a dark blue in reference to the limited color palette of the Marvel Comics issues, and the colorless chrome used for his tail and arms is now a light blue chrome. He also features some different paint applications: on his dinosaur chest, inside the clear panel on his robot mode chest, and on his robot mode knees. In addition, his toes are now metallic yellow instead of metallic gray. He also lacks the faceplate paint of the original Masterpiece Grimlock. His sword is also tinted orange rather than neutral clear, and the clear panel on his chest is clear dark green plastic instead of neutral clear. Curiously what were the red eyes in dinosaur mode on the original ''Masterpiece'' Grimlock are now the blue eyes on King Grimlock, and the blue eyes are now the red. The product also features the crown worn by Grimlock in the comics instead of the accessories from the cartoon, such as the waiter apron or the glasses. The [[package art]] is drawn in an homage to the early style of ''The Transformers'' published by Marvel Comics, as well as a bilingual ''[[The Transformers Universe|Transformers Universe]]'' style [[bio]] on the back of the package.

:King Grimlock was only available via [[TakaraTomy Mall|Toy Hobby Market]], the official shopping site of TakaraTomy. Pre-orders were open through [[July 31]]st through [[September 11]]th 2009, with the toy shipping out in December.

His gray is darker, he features additional painted details on his thighs, biceps, and waist to mimic label stickers included on the original 1985 figure, the dark gray painted details on his robot mode toes are now gold, the dinosaur mode's toenails are now coated in a thick gold paint rather than the polished golden look of the TakaraTomy version, and the red paint used on the metal area on his crotch is a lighter shade, matching the adjacent red plastic less.

:Grimlock's teeth and claws have been slightly rounded for this release.

:The stock photography to the right is mistransformed, depicting Grimlock's beast mode claws as pointing straight down (as they are in robot mode) instead of laying flat to the ground.

**''Accessories'': Sword, shield
{{note|''Fall of Cybertron'' [[Grimlock (WFC)#Generations|Grimlock]] was repurposed as Generation 1 Grimlock by ''Transformers Legends'' and ''[[Transformers Cloud|Cloud]]''.}}

:Part of the second wave of ''[[Transformers: Generations (toyline)|Generations]]'' Voyager Class toys, ''[[Transformers: Fall of Cybertron|Fall of Cybertron]]'' Grimlock transforms into a robotic ''[[Popular beast alternate modes|Tyrannosaurus rex]]''. He comes with a sword with a [[5 mm post|5mm handle]] and a peg on either side of the hilt, as well as a shield which can mount via its single peg. Grimlock features 5mm ports for his hands, as well as on his forearms/lower dino legs and shoulders/dino hips. Interestingly, the hollow sides of his dinosaur arms feature [[Cyberverse (toyline)|Cyberverse]]-compatible [[C joint|3mm ports]].

:His main [[gimmick]]s, however, are that he has a light in his dinosaur mouth, and a chomping dinosaur jaw. When a lever behind his dino head is pulled, his mouth opens, and the light turns on, strongly illuminating his head. This gimmick can also be used in robot mode, as his dino head ends up inside his hollow chest, although it's not as effective. The [[insignia]] on his chest is the Lightning Strike Coalition variant of the Autobrand.

:The [[TakaraTomy]] version, part of the seventh wave of Japanese ''Generations'' toys, replaces his gray plastics with darker shades, coats much of his gold plastic in shiny metallic gold paint, paints his tail tip silver and his abdomen red, and features more [[Paint operation|paint details]], among other deco changes.

:This toy was [[redeco]]ed for all the other versions of ''Fall of Cybertron'' Grimlock, but was also used for ''Age of Extinction'' [[Grimlock (AOE)#Voyager Class toys|Grimlock]].

: Available only at [[Toys"R"Us]] stores in the US, Canada, Europe, and Asia, this ''[[Transformers: Age of Extinction (toyline)|Age of Extinction]]''-branded two-pack features "1984 Grimlock" in the form of a Generation 1-inspired redeco of ''[[Transformers: Energon (toyline)|Energon]]'' [[Grimlock (Energon)#Toys|Grimlock]]. The toy is slightly retooled to give it [[5 mm post|5mm ports]] in its hands, allowing it to hold the included redeco of [[Razorclaw (G1)|Generation 1 Razorclaw]]'s sword (not pictured in stock photography). Undocumented in the instructions, he can be combined with ''Energon'' [[Swoop (Energon)#Toys|Swoop]] to form an inter-continuity version of [[Mega-Dinobot]]. As an Evolution 2-Pack, Grimlock was packaged alongside an ''[[Transformers: Age of Extinction (toyline)|Age of Extinction]]'' Voyager Class [[Grimlock (AOE)#TRUEvolution|Grimlock]] toy.

: The two-pack was one of the three Evolution 2-packs available as a Toys"R"Us exclusive in Japan, with no changes on the figures with an exception of the packaging, which the front box features Japanese translated versions of the English text, shrunken character renders for both Grimlocks, and a sticker on the back confirming that this was a Japanese release. The sword is also packaged on the center of the bubble, instead of hiding underneath it. This figure was also the first release of the [[Grimlock (Energon)#Toys|''Energon'' Grimlock]] mold in Japan.

Being the sixth use of the sculpt, it's starting to show instances of [[Mold#Deterioration|mold deterioration]], as several sections (such as the tabs that hold the robot mode torso together, or the parts of the beast mode neck formed by the robot mode feet) don't fit properly anymore.

:In the United States, Grimlock has thus far been found at Big Lots and Family Dollar stores. In Australia and Europe, he is available at general retail again, just like the previous [[wave]] of Legion Class figures. In 2015, he was re-released in redesigned packaging now resembling the currently released ''Combiner Wars''-era ''[[Transformers: Generations (toyline)|Generations]]''' packaging template, but replacing the name ''Generations'' with "Authentic Transformers".

:The [[stock photography|stock photo]] on the back of the packaging depicts him with ''Beast Hunters'' Cyberverse Commander Class [[Optimus Prime (WFC)/toys#BHCyberverse|Optimus Prime]]'s sword, which is also listed as an accessory in the Hasbro website product listing for this toy. The actual toy doesn't include a weapon. Furthermore, the [[instructions]] printed on the back of the packaging of the 2014 release are completely inaccurate, as they are for an [[Grimlock (AOE)#WalmartENmold|entirely different "Grimlock" toy]]! (This was fixed for the 2015 release.) Even if the instructions ''had'' been accurate, they probably wouldn't have mentioned that Grimlock can also form a leg of [[Abominus (Prime)#Beast Hunters|Abominus]] (or a combiner of his redecoes).

**''Accessories'': Twin-cannon, left & right missile launchers, 2 missiles, left & right gun-pods, large rifle, flame-blast

: Part of the first (and only) wave of Electronic Action ''[[Hero Mashers]]'' toys, Grimlock is a non-transforming action figure with ratchet-joints... and considerably larger than any other figure in the line at that. His design is based on his ''Age of Extinction'' counterpart, but also takes some cues and the coloration from the Generation 1 version of the character. He has multiple peg-holes all over that can be used to mount any ''Hero Mashers'' accessory.

: He is designed with a removable head, forelimbs, thighs, lower legs, and tail, all of which use the same clip-peg/hole joint. This means his pieces can be swapped around in any order, as well as swapped with any other ''Hero Mashers'' figure... which includes figures from [[Marvel Comics]], ''[[Star Wars (franchise)|Star Wars]]'', and ''[[Jurassic Park|Jurassic World]]'', meaning you can make some pretty freaky combinations.

: His large size is augmented by a large number of accessories and gimmicks. The signature electronic aspect is a light-up mouth, used to illuminate his "flame blast" accessory, or any other transparent accessory you care to stuff into his gaping maw. He also comes with two spring-loaded missile launchers.

The figure has a far greater range of articulation than many other Cyber Series figure to date. A small switch on the back of his beast-mode head moves his jaw up and down.

:This version of Grimlock is a unique amalgamation of three versions of the character; the robot mode head, torso, and transformation scheme take cues from [[Grimlock (RID 2015)#Warrior Class|2015 ''Robots in Disguise'' Grimlock]], the coloration is borrowed from [[Grimlock (AOE)#Toys|the toys of the live-action movie Grimlock]], lastly the styling and (scientifically outdated) stance of the dinosaur mode resembles the classic G1 Grimlock look.

:Like all of the ''Cyber Series'' figures, Grimlock did not get distribution in the United States, but has been reported showing up in Asian markets and was also solicited to South America.

Clobber features a new head piece based on ''Generation 1'' Grimlock's animation model. [[Hasbro]] stated at [[BotCon 2016]] that Clobber ''is'' Grimlock himself, leaving the reasons for his name unclear, but some kind of attempt to avoid confusion with the contemporaneous ''[[Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2015 franchise)|Robots in Disguise]]'' [[Grimlock (WFC)|character]] seems a likely explanation. Clobber features peg holes in his feet to allow him to stand on a variety of ''Titans Return'' figures, and is packaged with a beast accessory with three modes: a dragon for Clobber to ride, a ''T. rex'' formed by combining with Clobber, or a 5mm-compatible gun for larger figures. His new face piece was molded in black plastic, rather than gunmetal.

:As with Crashbash, Clobber's instructions feature the same error for steps 6(5)-8(7).

:This toy also doubles as the independent ''[[Beast Wars: Uprising]]'' character [[Clobber (BWU)|Clobber]].

He STILL doesn't have his 'Energo' Sword, but he can more than compensate by using the newly-molded guns or even one of the two Magma Blades (based on the sword Volcanicus wields in ''[[Transformers: Earth Wars]]'', itself based on the one used by ''[[Transformers: Fall of Cybertron|Fall of Cybertron]]'' [[Grimlock (G1)/toys#Generations|Grimlock]]) that the set comes with.

*''' Grimlock & Autobot Wheelie''' (Leader Class, [[2021]])
**''Hasbro ID number'': '''86-06'''
**''TakaraTomy ID number'': '''SS-64'''
**''TakaraTomy release date'': '''[[May 29]], 2021'''
**''Accessories'': [[Wheelie (G1)#Studio Series|Autobot Wheelie]], slingshot, Galaxial rocket launcher, "Mockery of Justice" backdrop

:Released to commemorate the 35th anniversary of ''[[The Transformers: The Movie]]'', ''[[Studio Series]]'' Grimlock is inspired by the ''Masterpiece'' figure, which hybridized the look of his appearance in [[The Transformers (cartoon)|the Generation 1 cartoon]] and his original toy, while sporting multiple aesthetic details unique to the ''Masterpiece'' toy. Because he is also influenced by the concurrently-running ''War for Cybertron Trilogy'', this Grimlock conforms to the trilogy's concerns for scale, making him the tallest Leader Class figure in the format.

:This figure comes with a non-transforming and slightly articulated [[Wheelie (G1)#Studio Series|Wheelie]] figurine (plus his slingshot) and Grimlock's rocket launcher, which can store on his back in ''T. rex'' mode.

:A common point of breakage lies in the plastic that clicks against the detented dino knee joints, which creates a faux-ratchet joint effect. The problem is that the small plastic piece has had multiple reports of snapping off upon first transforming the toy, though this just turns the faux-ratchet joint to a regular friction one, albeit loose. The joints require just enough clearance to function properly, but unfortunately, the joints' components are frequently attached too close together to do so. Sadly, Grimlock features very noticeable plastic screw holes on the right side of his head.

:Grimlock's colors were subject to multiple changes. Physical samples were not shown on the [[October 16]]th [[Hasbro Pulse#Fan First Friday|Fan First Friday]] due to in-progress color changes by TakaraTomy, and the renders at the time had yellow parts, a clear chest panel, and an opaque dino neck, evoking the cartoon model. Hasbro stock-photography and packaging renders reflect this, but the dino neck is translucent-yellow to reveal inner detail, much like the "G1" toy. TakaraTomy stock photography and the final toy would feature gold paint instead of yellow, a translucent black chest panel instead of clear (both of which closer evoke the original toy), and the opaque dino neck.

:Like the other ''Studio Series'' toys, the interior of the package forms a diorama display for the figure. In this case, it is the Dinobots' famous (ahem) ''self-invited'' entrance at [[Hot Rod (G1)|Hot Rod]] and [[Kup (G1)|Kup]]'s execution.

:Released to commemorate the 25th anniversary of ''[[Beast Wars: Transformers (franchise)|Beast Wars]]'', ''[[War for Cybertron: Kingdom|Kingdom]]'' "Maximal Grimlock" is a retool of [[Dinobot (BW)/toys#Generations|Dinobot]] from the same line, transforming from a robot mode based on Dinobot's ''''[[Beast Wars: Transformers (cartoon)|Beast Wars]]'''' cartoon appearance into a ''[[Jurassic Park]]''-accurate ''Velociraptor'' in 28 steps. Grimlock features a new head based directly on Grimlock's (and therefore, Dinobot's) original ''[[Beast Wars: Transformers (toyline)|Beast Wars]]'' figure. Grimlock's hands have a [[5 mm post|5 mm port]] that can hold both his weapons and can close to hold objects. He also has 5 mm ports under his heels and one under his back-[[kibble]]. His tail can detach and split into two components: his Cyber Slash tail weapon, and his sword. If one chooses to, the 5 mm port on the hand or the hand's swivel joint can allow the Cyber Slash weapon to spin in his hand. The sword's tip is molded with the same texture as Grimlock's skin, presumably to better blend in as the tail tip in beast mode. Due to the Cyber Slash weapon connection, the sword cannot be held by other Transformers toys with traditional 5 mm port hands. The Cyber Slash weapon can store in robot mode by attaching to the same port as beast mode.

:Oddly for a modern ''[[Transformers: Generations (toyline)|Generations]]'' figure, Grimlock's ''Velociraptor'' mode features a deco that strays from the original ''Beast Wars'' toy and ''[[Transformers: Dinobots|Dinobots]]'' [[Grimlock (Dinobots)#Toys|Grimlock]]'s decoes.

:And in what can be considered a surprise, Grimlock is mentioned in Hasbro's official description for the figure to be inspired by the character's appearance in ''[[Beast Wars: Uprising]]''!<ref>[https://hasbropulse.com/products/transformers-generations-war-for-cybertron-kingdom-battle-across-time-collection-deluxe-wfc-k40-autobot-mirage-maximal-grimlock "Beast Wars: Uprising-inspired Maximal Grimlock toy converts from robot to raptor mode in 28 steps"]</ref> Even though his [[Beast mode#Beast Wars: Uprising|Beast Upgrade]] appearance was never shown.

:Revealed on [https://www.instagram.com/p/COvYKODJgGf/ #TransformersTuesday], Grimlock was released with [[Mirage (G1)/toys#War for Cybertron: Kingdom|Autobot Mirage]] as a part of the "Battle Across Time Collection". Though similar to the ''Siege'' "Final Strike Figure Series", being exclusive multi-packs with package art that combines into a larger piece, the "Battle Across Time Collection" label is printed on the box. The two-pack is exclusive to [[Amazon (website)|Amazon]] and [[Hasbro Pulse]] in the US, and in the UK on Hasbro Pulse and several online retailers.

==Notes==
[[File:G2GrimlockArtwork.jpg|thumb|upright=1.3|Heavy Metal Greymon.]]
* Grimlock was originally a ''[[Diaclone]]'' "[[:File:DiacloneGrimlock.jpg|Dinosaur Robo Tyrannosaurus]]". The only differences between this incarnation and the ''Transformers'' release is that the ''Diaclone'' version has a silver-chromed sword and a blue crotch piece rather than red, as well as coming with a green-and-black Diaclone pilot figure.
* The original ''Diaclone'' commercial for the mold that became Grimlock showed him spewing fire from his mouth. So much for truth in advertising!
* There is [[:File:Grimlock Natural History Museum.JPG|a Grimlock toy]] placed in the showcase in the dinosaur section of the {{w|Natural History Museum}} in [[London]], [[United Kingdom]]; oddly, this doesn't make him the [[Slag (G1)|only one]].
* Despite being released in three different color schemes during the ''Generation 2'' toyline, a piece of recolored card artwork—seemingly from the collection of a former [[Hasbro]] employee—has surfaced on [[eBay]] (alongside recolored artwork of [[:File:G2SwoopArtwork.jpg|Swoop]] and [[:File:G2SludgeBoxart.jpg|Sludge]]), showing what may have been an intended fourth version of the Grimlock toy for that line. Being bright yellow with teal stripes, it certainly ''looks'' very [[neon|'90s]].
* [[T-Wrecks]] may have been intended to be a new form for Grimlock, based on the references in his tech spec bio to his ''Beast Wars'' "Attack Specialist" function and other hints. However, T-Wrecks' appearances in the [[3H Productions]] ''[[Transformers: Universe (comic)|Universe: The Wreckers]]'' comics suggest he is a new, unrelated character.
* A working name for the ''[[Transformers: Alternators|Alternators]]'' Ford Mustang mold which ultimately ended up as Grimlock was "[[Freeway (G1)|Freeway]]", according to various early store listings.
* The [[Grimlock (Energon)|Grimlock]] toy released in the [[Transformers: Energon (toyline)|''Energon'' toyline]] was originally created by [[Hasbro]] for release as a special new-mold addition for the [[Transformers: Universe (2003 toyline)|2003 ''Universe'' toyline]], and was intended to represent Generation 1 Grimlock. However, it wasn't and it didn't for the combination of budgetary concerns and keeping the combination gimmick (since he combines with the packed-in [[Swoop (Energon)|Swoop]] to form "[[Mega-Dinobot]]") only in the ''Energon'' toyline, which had combination as a central theme.

*'''Grimlock''' (Dinobot, [[1985]]/[[1986]]/[[1990]])
**''Takara ID number:'' '''26'''
**''Accessories:'' [[Energo weapon|'Energo' sword]], twin 'stunner' laser rifle, galaxial rocket launcher, 3 rockets

:Grimlock's toy was originally part of [[TakaraTomy|Takara]]'s ''[[Diaclone]]'' Dinosaur Robo series. When [[Hasbro]] imported the toy in 1985 for the ''Transformers'' line, its blue pelvis was changed to red, its sword was changed from chrome to flat red, the Diaclone driver mini-figure was dropped but still retained the cockpit though later releases had it permanently locked shut, and its teeth were altered [[for safety reasons]].

:The original Grimlock changes from robot into a robotic ''{{w|Tyrannosaurus}}'', and comes with a red [[energo weapon|energo-sword]], a black double-barreled rifle, and a rocket launcher with three silver rockets.

:In Japan, he and the other four Dinobots were offered as mail-away items during ''[[Fight! Super Robot Lifeform Transformers: Operation Combination (toyline)|Operation Combination]]''; Grimlock cost 2300 yen (his original retail price) and 2 [[Robot Point]]s.

*'''Grimlock''' ([[Classic Pretender]], [[1989]])
**''Accessories:'' Pretender shell, helmet, "Atom-Smashing Submachine Gun", "rocket launcher" dino-tail

:The [[Classic Pretender]] version of Grimlock is much smaller, simplified and slightly modified, but still transforms into a robotic ''T. rex''. His dino tail becomes a rocket-launcher-gauntlet thing that can be held by either the inner robot or outer shell, but either way has got to be a ''bear'' to aim properly. He came with a large human [[Pretender]] shell with a rather knight-like armor theme, with a helmet and large cannon with a blade on the barrel, giving him a pseudo-sword.

:His shell's head looks a lot like a younger {{w|Ed Asner}}.

*'''Grimlock''' ([[Legends (G1)|Legends]], 1989)
**''Accessories:'' "rocket launcher" dino-tail

:A [[Kmart]] [[exclusive]] in its [[Hasbro]] release, this version of Grimlock is simply the inner robot of his Classic Pretender form without the shell or its accessories, leaving him only his tail/gun.

:In Japan, Legends Grimlock was available only in a boxed "Hero Set" with the Legends versions of [[Bumblebee (G1)/toys#G1Legend|Bumblebee]], [[Jazz (G1)/toys#G1Legend|Jazz]] and [[Starscream (G1)/toys#G1Legend|Starscream]]. Grimlock was mostly unchanged from to the Hasbro release, but sported a silver painted face instead of Hasbro's orange painted one.

:In Italy, [[GiG]] released their own version of the Hero Set, named "Set Commandos", instead of the Classic Pretender versions of the toys. Grimlock, was renamed from "Tiran" to "Drago", originally the Italian name of [[Hot Spot (G1)|Hot Spot]]. The "Set Commandos" toys were identical to the Japanese "Hero Set" versions.

**''Accessories:'' Anti-tank cannon partner, "[[particle beam cannon]]"

:Part of the initial assortment of non-transforming [[Action Master]] figures, Grimlock's design combines his cartoon model with extra toy-based detailing. He came with the [[Anti-tank cannon]] "partner" machine which could be ridden by Grimlock (or any other Action Master) or unfolded via spring-loaded [[gimmick]] to form a really ''big'' hand-held "long-range mortar launcher". He is compatible with any other Action Master vehicle or weapon.

:Grimlock's original toy was reissued in the European/Australian-exclusive "[[Classics (Europe)|Classics]]" series, with no notable changes. In Greece, these releases were added to re-releases of the [[Defensor (G1)#Toys|Defensor]] and [[Devastator (G1)/toys#Toys|Devastator]] [[giftsets]].

:Grimlock's original toy was [[redeco]]ed for release in ''[[Transformers: Generation 2 (toyline)|Generation 2]]'', this time lacking the missile launcher accessory. He was available in three different colors; the first—and rarest—in his original silver (the easiest way to spot if this is a ''Generation 2'' or original is by the "Autobot" [[tampograph]] on his leg), then in a medium turquoise-blue, and finally (and most commonly) in a dark blue.

**''Accessories:'' "[[Cyber-slash tail weapon|Spinning slasher sword]]", tail-bone-sword

:The only new toy in the third wave of second-year ''[[Beast Wars: Transformers (toyline)|Beast Wars]]'' Deluxes, Grimlock is a [[redeco]] of [[Dinobot (BW)/toys#Toys|Dinobot]] in gray and gold with black spots, transforming into a "raptor" of some variety. His tail detaches and separates to form a gear-powered, spinning blade weapon, while the central "tail bone" separates to be used as a sword. The entire assembly can store in [[robot mode]] by flipping down the tail-mount and pegging the blade's base to the peg on his lower back. He also has a "mutant mask", halves of a dino-skull that flip up to cover his more robotic head. Thankfully these pieces are not pinned in, and can be easily removed for better clearance. He was also slightly [[retool]]ed from the original mold to have ratcheting shoulders and space for an "energon chip" [[rubsign]].

: Grimlock is extra-notable for suffering from [[Gold Plastic Syndrome]], making his hip-joints in particular prone to snapping off. Grim.

{{anchor|Alternators}}
[[File:AlternatorsGrimlock toy.jpg|upright=1.66|thumb|Me Grimlock no can munch metal, but can burn rubber!]]
* '''Grimlock''' (2005)
**''Alternator ID number:'' '''9'''
**''Binaltech ID number:'' '''BT-10'''
**''Accessories:'' Engine/gun, energo-sword

: For the ''[[Transformers: Alternators|Alternators]]'' line, Grimlock's [[alternate mode]] was changed from a dinosaur into a [[licensed vehicle alternate modes|licensed]], 1:24 scale silver {{w|Ford Mustang}} with opening doors, hood, and trunk, a detailed interior, [[rubber tires]] and a working steering mechanism. His engine transforms into a double-barreled gun, and he also carries an orange "energo-sword" which can attach to the underside of his vehicle mode. The toy is one of the most-complained-about ''Alternators'' toys, due to its notoriously finicky transformation (with many small steps that must be performed in exactly the right order) and to several pieces which have a tendency to pop off with relatively small amounts of force. And it's a Grimlock who doesn't transform into a ''Tyrannosaurus rex.

: The main difference between Hasbro's ''Alternators'' version of the toy and the Japanese ''Binaltech'' version is that the latter has its vehicle shell partially made out of painted [[die-cast]] metal parts, whereas the ''Alternators'' version is made entirely out of plastic (not counting the rubber tires). In addition, the ''Binaltech'' version's engine/gun and the wheel's rims are [[vacuum metallizing|vacuum-metalized]], whereas they're simply painted silver for the ''Alternators'' version.

:This sculpt was retooled into ''Alternators/Binaltech'' [[Wheeljack (G1)/toys#Alternators/Binaltech|Wheeljack]].

===''Classics''===
[[File:Grimlockclassicstoy.jpg|upright=1.66|thumb|Me Grimlock want to try new appearance, how me look in thigh high boots and stiletto heels?]]
*'''Grimlock''' (Deluxe, 2006)
**''Accessories:'' Missile launcher, missile, removable tail

: ''[[Transformers: Classics|Classics]]'' Grimlock, a gray and gold ''Tyrannosaurus rex'', is a re-imagined form of his original toy, and is notably designed to run rather than drag (theories on the ''T. rex'' having changed from "caveman adversary" to "Carl Lewis in lizard skin" since the Generation 1 incarnation).

:This mold features a few design elements likely influenced by Grimlock's Pretender toy; his bayonet blaster is an homage to his gun/blade combo weapon from said toy, and his tail detaches to become a handheld weapon as it does for the inner robot of his Pretender toy. Another similarity is the ''T. rex''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s upper-body forming the [[robot mode]] legs (though the ''T. rex'' head forms his feet this time around).

:Grimlock's bayonet blaster (dubbed the "[[Guardian Blaster]]" in his [[Hasbro Transformers Collectors' Club issue 13|TFCC profile]]) can be deployed in either mode and fires a clear red projectile. Both weapons can be stored on his back when not used. As with most ''Classics'' toys, Grimlock features a heat-sensitive [[rubsign]], placed on the left side of the tyrannosaurus torso/his left leg.

:A common complaint about the figure is the size of the peg being too small in relation to the peg-hole, making it impossible to lock the arms into place. The black shoulder flaps above are apparently meant to tab into these and lock the whole thing together, but the flaps are remarkably out of alignment and the tabs themselves are too short to even reach the slots. In addition, the bayonet blaster has a hair-trigger and for no apparent reason, his fist holes are a few fractions of a millimeter too small to accommodate standard 5mm peg accessories that most modern ''Transformers'' toys use.

:An unpainted ''Classics'' Grimlock was used at the [[BotCon 2007]] customization classes to create ''[[Transformers Timelines (toyline)|Timelines]]'' [[Overkill (G1)#Timelines|Overkill]]. The mold was also [[redeco]]ed to make [[Grimlock (SG)#Toys|''Shattered Glass'' Grimlock]] and [[Transformers: Universe (2008 franchise)|''Universe'' (2008)]] Overkill.

**''Accessories:'' Gun, Energo-sword

:Based upon his appearance from ''[[Transformers: The War Within|The War Within]]'', this version of Grimlock transforms into a Cybertronic heavy tank. This transforming partly die-cast and plastic Grimlock was initially unreleased due to the cancellation of the ''Transformers'' series of ''Titanium'' toys at retail (the line would continue on for ''[[Star Wars (franchise)|Star Wars]]'' at the three-inch scale). The toy was eventually released in the fall of 2008 as a Toys-R-Us exclusive, alongside the also-almost-unreleased War Within [[Prowl (G1)/toys#Titanium Series|Prowl]].

**''ID number:'' '''C-03'''
**''Accessories:'' Missile launcher, missile, removable tail

: ''[[Henkei! Henkei! Transformers (toyline)|Henkei! Henkei!]]'' Grimlock is an extensive redeco of ''Classics'' Grimlock, with generally more intricate paint detailing to make him more closely resemble the ''Generation 1'' toy. As with all ''Henkei'' toys, he lacks the heat sensitive rubsign seen on the ''Classics'' release, and instead features vacuum-metalized "chromed" plastic (in a similar [[gimmick]] to the ''Beast Wars'' [[Transmetal]]s toys). The vac-metal is used on his [[beast mode]] feet, as well as the ''Tyrannosaurus'' torso, which was, oddly enough, in Hasbro's original deco plan for ''Classics'' Grimlock.

**''ID number:'' '''MP-8'''
**''Accessories:'' Energo sword, twin 'stunner' lasers rifle, waiter apron, waiter bow tie, waiter tray, 7 unique waiter glasses, intelligence transfer helmet, crown (reissue exclusive), flame (reissue exclusive)

: Released in March of 2009, ''[[The Transformers: Masterpiece|Masterpiece]]'' Grimlock is based upon his original toy and cartoon model, transforming into an outdated view of the ''Tyrannosaurus'' rather than the more accurate depiction seen on ''Classics'' Grimlock. Of all the Masterpiece figures, Grimlock features both the least complex transformation, as well as the least deviation from his original toy's essential [[transformation|transformation scheme]].

: ''Masterpiece'' Grimlock features the usage of [[die-cast]] metal for his dinosaur mode's toes and an LED mounted within his right fist which illuminates both his gun's barrels and his sword. As a result of said mechanism, the only articulated part of his right hand is the thumb. Similarly his left hand is modeled much like [[Starscream (G1)/toys#Masterpiece|Masterpiece Starscream]]'s hands with the thumb and index finger fully articulated with the remaining fingers joined together. Possibly as a show of good faith regarding the sacrificed articulation, [[TakaraTomy]] designed his alternate mode's arms to be highly poseable, featuring full articulation of the claws with the arms themselves attached to the body with ball joints.

: He features many gimmicks, including the ability to change his eye color in either mode from red to blue with the flip of a switch found at the back of his head in robot mode, and by opening the top of his head in dino mode and switching the eyes around. This allows the owner the choice of representing the use of blue in the cartoon (and his IDW alternate mode) or the use of red in most other media, including his original toy. His tail is connected to his head, and by wiggling and moving it, the head rotates at the base of the neck. Pushing down on his torso in dinosaur mode makes his legs move up higher into his body, and as a result his head will look up. His alt mode's head features jaws that snap shut at the press of a button hidden on his cheek; in addition, it also has a tiny sculpted flame thrower in its mouth, but [[for safety reasons|for your safety]], it does not actually breathe fire (boo). Besides his weapons, he also comes with a cloth apron and bow tie to go with a drinks serving tray he carried in "[[Madman's Paradise]]", as well as the device he used to transfer his super-intelligence into [[Computron (G1)|Computron]] in "[[Grimlock's New Brain]]".

:When he was reissued, he came with a crown redecoed from the King Grimlock release and a new flame attachment to go over his sword.

*'''King Grimlock''' (December, 2009)
**''ID number:'' '''MP-8X'''
**''Accessories:'' Energo sword, twin 'stunner' lasers rifle, crown

:King Grimlock is a redeco of the ''Masterpiece'' Grimlock with a color scheme based on his appearance in the [[The Transformers (Marvel comic)|Generation 1 Marvel comic]]. All of his previously flat gray surfaces are coated in silver paint, his gold chrome is more vibrant, and his previously black plastic is now a dark blue in reference to the limited color palette of the Marvel Comics issues, and the colorless chrome used for his tail and arms is now a light blue chrome. He also features some different paint applications: on his dinosaur chest, inside the clear panel on his robot mode chest, and on his robot mode knees. In addition, his toes are now metallic yellow instead of metallic gray. He also lacks the faceplate paint of the original Masterpiece Grimlock. His sword is also tinted orange rather than neutral clear, and the clear panel on his chest is clear dark green plastic instead of neutral clear. Curiously what were the red eyes in dinosaur mode on the original ''Masterpiece'' Grimlock are now the blue eyes on King Grimlock, and the blue eyes are now the red. The product also features the crown worn by Grimlock in the comics instead of the accessories from the cartoon, such as the waiter apron or the glasses. The [[package art]] is drawn in an homage to the early style of ''The Transformers'' published by Marvel Comics, as well as a bilingual ''[[The Transformers Universe|Transformers Universe]]'' style [[bio]] on the back of the package.

:King Grimlock was only available via [[TakaraTomy Mall|Toy Hobby Market]], the official shopping site of TakaraTomy. Pre-orders were open through [[July 31]]st through [[September 11]]th 2009, with the toy shipping out in December.

:This figure was also available as a Toys"R"Us exclusive in many international Hasbro markets such as Canada, Australia, and Europe. Unusually for a Hasbro-branded release, if purchased through Toys"R"Us in Hong Kong, Malaysia, Singapore, Taiwan, or mainland China, or Toys Retailing in Thailand, this figure included a Hasbro Asia "Masterpiece King Grimlock" [[collector coin]].

His gray is darker, he features additional painted details on his thighs, biceps, and waist to mimic label stickers included on the original 1985 figure, the dark gray painted details on his robot mode toes are now gold, the dinosaur mode's toenails are now coated in a thick gold paint rather than the polished golden look of the TakaraTomy version, and the red paint used on the metal area on his crotch is a lighter shade, matching the adjacent red plastic less.

:Grimlock's teeth and claws have been slightly rounded for this release.

:The stock photography to the right is mistransformed, depicting Grimlock's beast mode claws as pointing straight down (as they are in robot mode) instead of laying flat to the ground.

{{note|''Fall of Cybertron'' [[Grimlock (WFC)#Generations|Grimlock]] was repurposed as Generation 1 Grimlock by ''Transformers Legends'' and ''[[Transformers Cloud|Cloud]]''.}}

:Part of the second wave of ''[[Transformers: Generations (toyline)|Generations]]'' Voyager Class toys, ''[[Transformers: Fall of Cybertron|Fall of Cybertron]]'' Grimlock transforms into a robotic ''[[Popular beast alternate modes|Tyrannosaurus rex]]''. He comes with a sword with a [[5 mm post|5mm handle]] and a peg on either side of the hilt, as well as a shield which can mount via its single peg. Grimlock features 5mm ports for his hands, as well as on his forearms/lower dino legs and shoulders/dino hips. Interestingly, the hollow sides of his dinosaur arms feature [[Cyberverse (toyline)|Cyberverse]]-compatible [[C joint|3mm ports]].

:His main [[gimmick]]s, however, are that he has a light in his dinosaur mouth, and a chomping dinosaur jaw. When a lever behind his dino head is pulled, his mouth opens, and the light turns on, strongly illuminating his head. This gimmick can also be used in robot mode, as his dino head ends up inside his hollow chest, although it's not as effective. The [[insignia]] on his chest is the Lightning Strike Coalition variant of the Autobrand.

:The [[TakaraTomy]] version, part of the seventh wave of Japanese ''Generations'' toys, replaces his gray plastics with darker shades, coats much of his gold plastic in shiny metallic gold paint, paints his tail tip silver and his abdomen red, and features more [[Paint operation|paint details]], among other deco changes.

:This toy was [[redeco]]ed for all the other versions of ''Fall of Cybertron'' Grimlock, but was also used for ''Age of Extinction'' [[Grimlock (AOE)#Voyager Class toys|Grimlock]].

:Available only as part of the [[Hasbro Toy Shop]] [[exclusive]] "Dinobots Generation One 4-pack" that was first made available at [[San Diego Comic-Con]] [[2014]], Grimlock is a redeco of the ''Age of Extinction'' Voyager Grimlock figure, and features heavy use of vacuum metalization, transparent plastic and paint applications to recreate the look of the Generation 1 Grimlock toy. He retains the mace accessory, and its head, or the entire weapon, can be attached to Grimlock's dinosaur mode tail. Grimlock was packaged with [[Swoop (G1)#SDCCDinobots|Strafe]], [[Snarl (G1)#SDCCDinobots|Snarl]], and [[Slag (G1)#SDCCDinobots|Slug]], and their box unfolds into a diorama of the crashed [[Ark (G1)|Ark]] in [[Mount St. Hilary]]. A similarly-themed toy of [[Slog (AOE)#Amazon|Sludge]] was released via Amazon in ''Age of Extinction'' packaging.

*'''Grimlock''' (Legion, 2014)

:Part of the Generation 1-inspired 2014 Legion Class assortment, Grimlock is a redeco of ''[[Cyberverse (toyline)|Cyberverse]]'' ''[[Beast Hunters (toyline)|Beast Hunters]]'' [[Rippersnapper (Prime)|Rippersnapper]], and transforms into a vaguely shark-like dragon, although his package art, recolored from the [[:File:MTMTE8 cvrRI.jpg|RI cover]] of [[Scavengers (Part 2): Who's Afraid of the DJD?|''More than Meets the Eye'' #8]], and the Hasbro website product description would have you believe that it's a mechanical ''T. rex''. Being the sixth use of the sculpt, it's starting to show instances of [[Mold#Deterioration|mold deterioration]], as several sections (such as the tabs that hold the robot mode torso together, or the parts of the beast mode neck formed by the robot mode feet) don't fit properly anymore.

:In the United States, Grimlock has thus far been found at Big Lots and Family Dollar stores. In Australia and Europe, he is available at general retail again, just like the previous [[wave]] of Legion Class figures. In 2015, he was re-released in redesigned packaging now resembling the currently released ''Combiner Wars''-era ''[[Transformers: Generations (toyline)|Generations]]''' packaging template, but replacing the name ''Generations'' with "Authentic Transformers".

:The [[stock photography|stock photo]] on the back of the packaging depicts him with ''Beast Hunters'' Cyberverse Commander Class [[Optimus Prime (WFC)/toys#BHCyberverse|Optimus Prime]]'s sword, which is also listed as an accessory in the Hasbro website product listing for this toy. The actual toy doesn't include a weapon. Furthermore, the [[instructions]] printed on the back of the packaging of the 2014 release are completely inaccurate, as they are for an [[Grimlock (AOE)#WalmartENmold|entirely different "Grimlock" toy]]! (This was fixed for the 2015 release.) Even if the instructions ''had'' been accurate, they probably wouldn't have mentioned that Grimlock can also form a leg of [[Abominus (Prime)#Beast Hunters|Abominus]] (or a combiner of his redecoes).

**''Accessories'': Sword, crown

:Available only in the "Grimlock Unleashed" set, both the buildable Grimlock and the Grimlock Kreon are based on the Generation One looks of the character, despite the other Kreons on the set being based on their Age of Extinction versions. The Kreon comes with his Energo-Sword and two optional helmets, a Sideswipe-style one and a crown based on the time Grimlock led the Autobots. Unlike other Kreons, Grimlock has his faceplate printed on the figure face instead of added by the helmet.

:It is incredibly poseable and well-built by Kre-O standards.

: This set popped up at Toys"R"Us a few short weeks after the initial product without any advance warning... and retailed for a mere $25, despite the size of the set.

:Part of the new Battle Changers series, Battle Changers Grimlock transforms from a really badly-proportioned ''T. rex'' into a robot and back without removing any parts! His appearance is reminiscent of his Generation 1 counterpart, while the deco is based on his ''Age of Extinction'' counterpart's toys. Like all of the Battle Changers, Grimlock uses a new hip piece using larger balljoints than the normal Kreons. He also comes with a weapon that, once stickers are applied, resembles the sword used by ''[[Transformers: Fall of Cybertron|Fall of Cybertron]]'' [[Grimlock (WFC)|Grimlock]], and can be wielded by his C-joint hands.

:All of the 2015 ''Transformers [[Kre-O]]'' product was skipped by retailers in the US (at first), seeing release in Canada, Australia and various Asian markets. In late 2015, much of the line was finally released at discount in the US through TJ Maxx and Marshalls stores, including this set.

* '''Electronic Grimlock''' (Electronic Action, 2014)
**''Pieces'': '''18'''
**''Accessories'': Twin-cannon, left & right missile launchers, 2 missiles, left & right gun-pods, large rifle, flame-blast

: Part of the first (and only) wave of Electronic Action ''[[Hero Mashers]]'' toys, Grimlock is a non-transforming action figure with ratchet-joints... and considerably larger than any other figure in the line at that. His design is based on his ''Age of Extinction'' counterpart, but also takes some cues and the coloration from the Generation 1 version of the character. He has multiple peg-holes all over that can be used to mount any ''Hero Mashers'' accessory.

: He is designed with a removable head, forelimbs, thighs, lower legs, and tail, all of which use the same clip-peg/hole joint. This means his pieces can be swapped around in any order, as well as swapped with any other ''Hero Mashers'' figure... which includes figures from [[Marvel Comics]], ''[[Star Wars (franchise)|Star Wars]]'', and ''[[Jurassic Park|Jurassic World]]'', meaning you can make some pretty freaky combinations.

: His large size is augmented by a large number of accessories and gimmicks. The signature electronic aspect is a light-up mouth, used to illuminate his "flame blast" accessory, or any other transparent accessory you care to stuff into his gaping maw. He also comes with two spring-loaded missile launchers.

**''Accessories'': Two-piece spiked maul

:Part of the ''Generations [[Transformers: Platinum Edition|Platinum Edition]]'' Dinobots 5-pack, Grimlock is a redeco and retool of [[Grimlock (AOE)#Voyager Class toys|''Age of Extinction'' Voyager Class Grimlock]], sporting a Generation-1 inspired deco and a head. This release also suffers from a small degree of mold deterioration: the ''T. rex'' heels that connect with his forearms and the shoulders/''T. rex'' upper jaw halves seemed to connect loosely.

:Grimlock was bundled with Slug, Slog, Snarl, and Strafe.

: This set was initially released as a [[Toys"R"Us]] exclusive in Canada in October 2015, followed by Singapore a month later (although it's currently unknown whether it was exclusive to any particular store there or not). Much later, it became available via the Australian Toys"R"Us website (but never found in stores). In the United States, it was initally only available online via [[Amazon (website)|Amazon]] and [[BigBadToyStore]] before being found at discount chain Ross a year after its intial release in Canada.

*'''Grimlock''' (Cyber Battalion, 2015)

:Part of the new ''Generations'' [[Cyber Battalion]] series, this new Voyager-sized mold of Grimlock transforms from robot to dinosaur and back. The figure has a far greater range of articulation than many other Cyber Series figure to date. A small switch on the back of his beast-mode head moves his jaw up and down.

:This version of Grimlock is a unique amalgamation of three versions of the character; the robot mode head, torso, and transformation scheme take cues from [[Grimlock (RID 2015)#Warrior Class|2015 ''Robots in Disguise'' Grimlock]], the coloration is borrowed from [[Grimlock (AOE)#Toys|the toys of the live-action movie Grimlock]], lastly the styling and (scientifically outdated) stance of the dinosaur mode resembles the classic G1 Grimlock look.

:Like all of the ''Cyber Series'' figures, Grimlock did not get distribution in the United States, but has been reported showing up in Asian markets and was also solicited to South America. Toy importers did stock this series in a limited capacity and they sold out quickly in 2015 and effectively disappeared at that time.

**''Accessories:'' Dragon/bird/gun accessory

:Part of the second wave of ''[[Titans Return (toyline)|Titans Return]]'' [[Titan Master]]s, Clobber is a retool of [[Squeezeplay (G1)#Generations|Crashbash]] and transforms from a robot into a head compatible with any Deluxe-or-larger figure in the line. Clobber features a new head piece based on ''Generation 1'' Grimlock's animation model. [[Hasbro]] stated at [[BotCon 2016]] that Clobber ''is'' Grimlock himself, leaving the reasons for his name unclear, but some kind of attempt to avoid confusion with the contemporaneous ''[[Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2015 franchise)|Robots in Disguise]]'' [[Grimlock (WFC)|character]] seems a likely explanation. Clobber features peg holes in his feet to allow him to stand on a variety of ''Titans Return'' figures, and is packaged with a beast accessory with three modes: a dragon for Clobber to ride, a ''T. rex'' formed by combining with Clobber, or a 5mm-compatible gun for larger figures. His new face piece was molded in black plastic, rather than gunmetal.

:As with Crashbash, Clobber's instructions feature the same error for steps 6(5)-8(7).

:This toy also doubles as the independent ''[[Beast Wars: Uprising]]'' character [[Clobber (BWU)|Clobber]].

He can combine with his fellow Dinobots to form [[Volcanicus (POTP)#Toys|Volcanicus]] and can attach any ''[[Combiner Wars (toyline)|Combiner Wars]]''-style Deluxe Class figure. Like the other Dinobots in this subline, he features translucent plastic with gold paint on the inside to give him a 'layered' look reminiscent of [[#Generation 1|his original toy]]. He also includes two pieces of Prime Armor that each can hold a [[Prime Master#Toys|Prime Master]] (and by extension, an [[Enigma of Combination#Generations|Enigma]] or [[Matrix of Leadership/toys#Power of the Primes|Matrix core]]) and attach to his forearms as battle claws. These also double as feet for Volcanicus. Like all the other Voyager Class figures, Grimlock includes an Enigma of Combination (dubbed the ''Dinobot Enigma''), based on a Prime Master, which can attach to him via the previously mentioned Prime Armor. In beast mode, he can carry an Enigma, Matrix core, or Prime Master ''in his mouth'', where Volcanicus's chest would be. If you're particularly creative, you could place a Matrix in his mouth.

**''TakaraTomy release date'': '''[[May 29]], 2021'''
**''Accessories'': [[Wheelie (G1)#Studio Series|Autobot Wheelie]], slingshot, Galaxial rocket launcher, "Mockery of Justice" backdrop

:Released to commemorate the 35th anniversary of ''[[The Transformers: The Movie]]'', ''[[Studio Series]]'' Grimlock is inspired by the ''Masterpiece'' figure, which hybridized the look of his appearance in [[The Transformers (cartoon)|the Generation 1 cartoon]] and his original toy, while sporting multiple aesthetic details unique to the ''Masterpiece'' toy. Because he is also influenced by the concurrently-running ''War for Cybertron Trilogy'', this Grimlock conforms to the trilogy's concerns for scale, making him the tallest Leader Class figure in the format.

:This figure comes with a non-transforming and slightly articulated [[Wheelie (G1)#Studio Series|Wheelie]] figurine (plus his slingshot) and Grimlock's rocket launcher, which can store on his back in ''T. rex'' mode.

:A common point of breakage lies in the plastic that clicks against the detented dino knee joints, which creates a faux-ratchet joint effect. The problem is that the small plastic piece has had multiple reports of snapping off upon first transforming the toy, though this just turns the faux-ratchet joint to a regular friction one, albeit loose. The joints require just enough clearance to function properly, but unfortunately, the joints' components are frequently attached too close together to do so. Sadly, Grimlock features very noticeable plastic screw holes on the right side of his head.

:Grimlock's colors were subject to multiple changes. Physical samples were not shown on the [[October 16]]th [[Hasbro Pulse#Fan First Friday|Fan First Friday]] due to in-progress color changes by TakaraTomy, and the renders at the time had yellow parts, a clear chest panel, and an opaque dino neck, evoking the cartoon model. Hasbro stock-photography and packaging renders reflect this, but the dino neck is translucent-yellow to reveal inner detail, much like the "G1" toy. TakaraTomy stock photography and the final toy would feature gold paint instead of yellow, a translucent black chest panel instead of clear (both of which closer evoke the original toy), and the opaque dino neck.

:Like the other ''Studio Series'' toys, the interior of the package forms a diorama display for the figure. In this case, it is the Dinobots' famous (ahem) ''self-invited'' entrance at [[Hot Rod (G1)|Hot Rod]] and [[Kup (G1)|Kup]]'s execution.

:Released to commemorate the 25th anniversary of ''[[Beast Wars: Transformers (franchise)|Beast Wars]]'', ''[[War for Cybertron: Kingdom|Kingdom]]'' "Maximal Grimlock" is a retool of [[Dinobot (BW)/toys#Generations|Dinobot]] from the same line, transforming from a robot mode based on Dinobot's ''''[[Beast Wars: Transformers (cartoon)|Beast Wars]]'''' cartoon appearance into a ''[[Jurassic Park]]''-accurate ''Velociraptor'' in 28 steps. Grimlock features a new head based directly on Grimlock's (and therefore, Dinobot's) original ''[[Beast Wars: Transformers (toyline)|Beast Wars]]'' figure. Grimlock's hands have a [[5 mm post|5 mm port]] that can hold both his weapons and can close to hold objects. He also has 5 mm ports under his heels and one under his back-[[kibble]]. His tail can detach and split into two components: his Cyber Slash tail weapon, and his sword. If one chooses to, the 5 mm port on the hand or the hand's swivel joint can allow the Cyber Slash weapon to spin in his hand. The sword's tip is molded with the same texture as Grimlock's skin, presumably to better blend in as the tail tip in beast mode. Due to the Cyber Slash weapon connection, the sword cannot be held by other Transformers toys with traditional 5 mm port hands. The Cyber Slash weapon can store in robot mode by attaching to the same port as beast mode.

:Oddly for a modern ''[[Transformers: Generations (toyline)|Generations]]'' figure, Grimlock's ''Velociraptor'' mode features a deco that strays from the original ''Beast Wars'' toy and ''[[Transformers: Dinobots|Dinobots]]'' [[Grimlock (Dinobots)#Toys|Grimlock]]'s decoes.

:And in what can be considered a surprise, Grimlock is mentioned in Hasbro's official description for the figure to be inspired by the character's appearance in ''[[Beast Wars: Uprising]]''!<ref>[https://hasbropulse.com/products/transformers-generations-war-for-cybertron-kingdom-battle-across-time-collection-deluxe-wfc-k40-autobot-mirage-maximal-grimlock "Beast Wars: Uprising-inspired Maximal Grimlock toy converts from robot to raptor mode in 28 steps"]</ref> Even though his [[Beast mode#Beast Wars: Uprising|Beast Upgrade]] appearance was never shown.

==Notes==
[[File:G2GrimlockArtwork.jpg|thumb|upright=1.3|Heavy Metal Greymon.]]
* Grimlock was originally a ''[[Diaclone]]'' "[[:File:DiacloneGrimlock.jpg|Dinosaur Robo Tyrannosaurus]]". The only differences between this incarnation and the ''Transformers'' release is that the ''Diaclone'' version has a silver-chromed sword and a blue crotch piece rather than red, as well as coming with a green-and-black Diaclone pilot figure.
* The original ''Diaclone'' commercial for the mold that became Grimlock showed him spewing fire from his mouth. So much for truth in advertising!
* There is [[:File:Grimlock Natural History Museum.JPG|a Grimlock toy]] placed in the showcase in the dinosaur section of the {{w|Natural History Museum}} in [[London]], [[United Kingdom]]; oddly, this doesn't make him the [[Slag (G1)|only one]].
* Despite being released in three different color schemes during the ''Generation 2'' toyline, a piece of recolored card artwork—seemingly from the collection of a former [[Hasbro]] employee—has surfaced on [[eBay]] (alongside recolored artwork of [[:File:G2SwoopArtwork.jpg|Swoop]] and [[:File:G2SludgeBoxart.jpg|Sludge]]), showing what may have been an intended fourth version of the Grimlock toy for that line. Being bright yellow with teal stripes, it certainly ''looks'' very [[neon|'90s]].
* [[T-Wrecks]] may have been intended to be a new form for Grimlock, based on the references in his tech spec bio to his ''Beast Wars'' "Attack Specialist" function and other hints. However, T-Wrecks' appearances in the [[3H Productions]] ''[[Transformers: Universe (comic)|Universe: The Wreckers]]'' comics suggest he is a new, unrelated character.
* A working name for the ''[[Transformers: Alternators|Alternators]]'' Ford Mustang mold which ultimately ended up as Grimlock was "[[Freeway (G1)|Freeway]]", according to various early store listings.
* The [[Grimlock (Energon)|Grimlock]] toy released in the [[Transformers: Energon (toyline)|''Energon'' toyline]] was originally created by [[Hasbro]] for release as a special new-mold addition for the [[Transformers: Universe (2003 toyline)|2003 ''Universe'' toyline]], and was intended to represent Generation 1 Grimlock. However, it wasn't and it didn't for the combination of budgetary concerns and keeping the combination gimmick (since he combines with the packed-in [[Swoop (Energon)|Swoop]] to form "[[Mega-Dinobot]]") only in the ''Energon'' toyline, which had combination as a central theme.

Much like [[Optimus Prime (G1)|Optimus Prime]], the [[Decepticon]] leader also continues to receive more toys than the average ''[[Transformers brand|Transformers]]'' character. While '''[[Megatron (G1)|Megatron]]''' doesn't have quite as many toys as his nemesis, he is one of ''at least'' [[Bumblebee (G1)|four]] [[Starscream (G1)|main]] characters that are guaranteed to get a new toy just about every year.

For the sake of finding an easy and definitive split from the main toy article, we have opted to make this page strictly for the various ''[[Transformers: Generations (toyline)|Generations]]''-branded toylines, as this appears to be the brand [[Hasbro]] will likely continue adding Generation 1 characters to for the foreseeable future.

*'''Megatron''' (Voyager Class, 2012)
**''Accessories:'' {{w|Katana}}, {{w|:Wakizashi|tanto}}

: ''[[Transformers: Generations (toyline)|Generations]]'' Megatron is an Asian market and Toys"R"Us-exclusive redeco/retool of ''[[Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (toyline)|Revenge of the Fallen: N.E.S.T. Global Alliance'' Voyager Class [[Bludgeon (ROTF)#Voyager|Bludgeon]], sporting a new, smiling head. Megatron transforms from a Japanese {{w|Type 90 Kyū-maru|Type 90}} tank into a samurai-esque robot mode. He features a flexible plastic sword which is made out of a portion of the barrel of the tank's main gun, as well as a smaller dagger. The dagger can be stored in a sheath which is revealed from inside the tank turret, and both blades can be slotted in holes provided on the robot mode's left hip guard. The larger sword has a peghole at the bottom of the hilt; though it is specifically designed to allow the dagger's handle to fit in the base to form a double-bladed weapon, it can also fit any other accessory that uses [[5 mm post]]s. The post used to combine the swords remains unobstructed in vehicle mode, meaning you can attach the dagger to the end of Megatron's main tank cannon if you're feeling silly. He also has [[Mech Alive]] [[gimmick]]s in his thighs and turret: sculpted cylinders in his thighs rotate whenever his lower legs are rotated, and pulling his turret open makes a sculpted white "disc" at the center rotate while a scabbard for the tantō hinges over to the side and props itself up for use.

:The vehicle mode is one of the very few Transformer tank toys with rubber components to its treads. Portions of the tread links can unlock, allowing them to hang from the robot mode, while the wheels of the treads are integrated separately into the robot mode form itself. The treads still do not function realistically; small plastic wheels on the underside of the treads help the tank mode roll, as is standard with nearly all Transformer tank toys. On the plus side, the tank turret can be rotated a full three-hundred sixty degrees, as can the purple machine gun that sits atop the turret.

:Unlike the other uses of this mold, Megatron comes [[Packaging|packaged]] in robot mode holding his swords, with additional plastic and paper ties in the tray imperfectly holding his swords in position. Because they were packaged this way since they were shipped out of the factory, most Megatrons come with the swords being badly bent and warped in the box. Fortunately, the swords' blades can be mostly straightened by leaving them sheathed in their hidden scabbards. Straightening their ''hilts'' is a different matter, though.

:As a redeco of the ''Revenge of the Fallen'' Bludgeon mold, it is highly likely that Megatron is cursed with the same design fault as his brethren - the rubber treads break down over the course of years, causing them to corrode spots of plastic and leave melty gashes behind.

: This version of the mold was also used to make ''[[Transformers Cloud|Cloud]]'' [[Megatron (G1)/toys#Cloud|Megatron]], while the original version was redecoed into ''[[Transformers (2010 toyline)|Hunt for the Decepticons]]'' [[Banzaitron (TF 2010)#Toys|Banzaitron]], and differently retooled to make ''[[Transformers Timelines (toyline)|Timelines]]'' [[Overlord (Masterforce)#Timelines|Gigatron]].

:Part of the fourth wave of 2012-onwards ''Generations'' Legends Class toys, ''[[Thrilling 30]]'' Megatron is a new mold that is roughly the same size as a ''[[Cyberverse (toyline)|Cyberverse]]'' Commander Class toy. He transforms from a generic tank with rotating turret into a robot based on his [[Alex Milne]] pre-war design as seen in "[[Chaos Theory Part 1]]" from [[IDW Publishing|IDW]]'s ''[[The Transformers (IDW)|The Transformers]]'' ongoing series, and features [[5 mm post|5mm-compatible]] ports for his hands and left forearm/turret roof.

: He comes with [[Chop Shop (G1)#Generations|Chop Shop]], who can transform into a stag beetle, a robot, a weapon with a 5 mm handle, and a mine plow that attaches to the front of Megatron's tank mode. He features gearing that opens his pinchers when his legs are moved.

:This mold also served as the model for the non-toy ''[[Beast Wars: Uprising]]'' incarnation of [[Megatron (BW)#Beast Wars: Uprising|Megatron]] and was retooled into ''Generations [[Combiner Wars (toyline)|Combiner Wars]]'' Legends Class [[Warpath (G1)/toys#Combiner Wars|Warpath]].

**''Accessories'': 2 wingtips (combine to form Fusion Cannon)

:Part of the fifth wave of 2012-onwards ''Generations'' Deluxe Class toys, ''Thrilling 30'' Megatron is based on [[Don Figueroa]]'s stealth bomber design from the IDW Publishing [[Heart Like a Wheel|''The Transformers'' vol. 1]] ongoing series (which resembles a Northrop Grumman B-2 Spirit). In robot mode, his wingtips detach to combine and transform into his [[Fusion cannon#Deluxe|fusion cannon]] (although it's actually designed after the [[rail gun]] this body was equipped with in IDW's comics, but of course Hasbro couldn't call it ''that'' on a toy's packaging). The cannon can peg into 5mm ports on his hands and forearms. This design was actually taken from an official pitch without Figueroa's permission and with no compensation to the artist, a fact he was rather sore about.<ref>[http://www.seibertron.com/energonpub/don-figueroa-designed-idw-s-stealth-bomber-megatron-but-wasn-t-compensated--t96022s0.php "So I read that this was being made into a toy? wow, and I thought only 3rd party companies take stuff without giving any notice, acknowledgement or compensation... FYI: hasbro nor idw solicited me to do this design, I did it on my own."]</ref>

:In the American release Megatron comes packed in with a copy of IDW's ''[[Spotlight: Megatron]]'', sporting a 'Hasbro Exclusive Cover' cropped from the [[Clayton Crain]] [[:File:Spotlight Megatron cvrRI.jpg|retailer incentive cover]]. In European and Canadian markets the figure was released without the ''Spotlight''.

:He was later retooled into ''Generations'' [[Dreadwing (G2)#Generations|Dreadwing]], ''[[Transformers Timelines (toyline)|Timelines]]'' [[Krok (G1)#Timelines|Krok]], and ''The Last Knight'' [[Megatron (Movie)/toys#TLKDeluxe|Megatron]].

*'''Megatron''' (Leader Class, 2015)
**''Accessories'': Two guns (combine to form rifle), missile

:Part of the first wave of 2015 ''[[Combiner Wars (toyline)|Combiner Wars]]'' Leader Class toys, Megatron transforms from a robot heavily inspired by his Generation 1 animation model into a tank featuring working treads. He includes a sticker sheet featuring two each of Decepticon and Autobot [[insignia]] (the latter in reference to IDW's ''[[The Transformers: More than Meets the Eye|More than Meets the Eye]]''), plus stickers intended to replicate those on the original Megatron toy's chest and fusion cannon. Megatron also comes packaged with a collector's card featuring art from the initial release of the ''[[Transformers Legends (mobile game)|Transformers Legends]]'' mobile game. His box-back bio bears a superficial similarity to our wiki's article on [[Megatron (WFC)|another Megatron]]. He features a spark chamber hatch which is sculpted in likeness to the one seen in "[[Master Blaster]]". In a feature that goes undocumented in Megatron's instructions, his two combining guns can store underneath the rear of his alternate mode. Although the website description & the package billed the transformation as "15 steps", the toy actually has ''10'' steps. In keeping with that simplicity, his articulation is more limited than one might expect of a toy this size, with his restrictive knee articulation and lack of ankle joints making it tricky for him to stand in dynamic poses.

:In robot mode, Megatron's fusion cannon is on a pinned swivel, allowing it to be flipped in either direction, and appears to have been deliberately shaped to evoke the fusion cannon's traditional look no matter which way it faces. With the missile-firing tip backwards, the swivel piece allows the cannon to fold further out to the side, giving enough clearance for the arm to bend up to 90 degrees. In this configuration, the visible swivel piece matches the hexagonal detailing on the traditional cannon design, and a grooved dial sculpted into the cannon is slightly angled such that it perfectly matches the vertical position of the adjustment dial on the original scope/cannon. Of course, in that configuration Megatron can't shoot anyone with his missile, so where's the fun in that, you silly nerd?

:Select aspects of this design, such as the leg-mounted treads, the general transformation sequence and the tank alt-mode, were used to represent G1 Megatron in ''[[Transformers: Devastation]]''. The toy meanwhile was retooled into [[Megatron (Armada)/toys#Generations|''Armada'' Megatron]], which was released at the same time. This mold’s tank mode bears almost no specific resemblance to that Megatron’s original [[Armada]] toy, but in a concession to that character’s legacy, both versions of this mold feature Armada-style [[Minicon]] connection ports; a rarity in any year of the Generations toyline.

He also comes with [[Spacewarp#Generations|Spacewarp]] (a redeco of [[Blast Master#Generations|''Thrilling 30'' Payload]]) and his Pretender shell, which is redecoed from [[Grand Maximus#Toys|Grand Maximus]]'s. Double Pretender Megatron also comes with a joint piece for Spacewarp to let her fit in the shell along with Megatron. This joint piece is sculpted to resemble the large chromed laser cannon that the original G1 Megatron toy came with. His Pretender shell weapons are black repaints of ''[[Titans Return (toyline)|Titans Return]]'' [[Sentinel Prime (G1)#Generations|Sentinel Prime]]'s rifle and Voyager Class [[Optimus Prime (G1)/Generations toys#TRVoyager|Optimus Prime]]'s [[Laser Rod (weapon)#Generations|sword]].

*'''Doomshot & Megatron''' (Voyager Class, 2016)
**''Accessories'': Fusion Cannon, Rifle, Doomshot Titan Master

:''[[Titans Return (toyline)|Titans Return]]'' Megatron transforms from robot to tank to plane reminiscent of his [[Megatron (G1)/toys#Machine Wars|''Machine Wars'' counterpart]] and back. Megatron comes with [[Doomshot#Toys|Doomshot]], a [[Titan Master]] who becomes his head. The G1 toy-accurate 'scrollwork' details on his chest and all Decepticon insignias (on his robot mode chest, jet nosecone, and tank tread cowling) are chrome-backed, factory-applied, low-quality stickers which are notoriously prone to peeling off at the slightest disturbance. As their chrome-backed nature clashes heavily with Megatron's otherwise unpainted torso, replacing them is recommended. His wing stickers are similarly metallic, but appear to adhere better and clash less with the figure's overall aesthetic.

:The fusion cannon is shown in stock renders to be solid black, while the final one is light grey plastic dipped in black paint with the posts left bare. His dark-grey plastic is nowhere near as dark as the stock renders shows, though it is still darker than the light-grey plastic.

:Like all Voyager Class ''Titans Return'' figures, he has a pair of pop-up parts to fill in the area around his head; in this case, a pair of missile racks. While it initially looks like his chest does not contain a pivoting assembly for better range of movement on Megatron's neck, there is in fact one hidden under the grey parts that form his robot mode collar that allow the missile racks and the Titan Master port to turn in either direction.<ref name="neck">[https://www.tfw2005.com/boards/threads/titans-return-voyager-megatron-and-doomshot.1092333/page-18#post-14975031 Detailed look on TFW2005.com]</ref> Due to the nature of his transformation it is possible to transform Megatron into tank mode without removing his head, though this leaves it completely exposed at the back of the tank.

:His fusion cannon can plug into the short barrel of the tank turret or the rifle/Titan Master vehicle weapon. In an undocumented additional feature, the rifle can be inserted into the front end of the fusion cannon. The fusion cannon can be mounted on his forearm or held by any figure with 5mm hands. It also has a peg hole that an accessory such as his rifle can plug into, with extra square peg holes specifically to hold the rifle in place. The tank cannon on his turret, while held in ''very'' hard by a pair of ridges and a 5mm post, can also be removed; it can be pegged in by its 5mm post barrel onto a peghole in Megatron's shoulder to recreate G1 Megatron's classic shoulder barrel.

:The instructions for robot-to-tank transformation suggest that you move his robot mode chestplate downwards into the collapsed jet position. It appears to have a clearance issue, with the chest protruding too far; leaving it in robot mode position will ensure there are no clearance issues. However, the chest ''can'' be made to fit better by putting it into position before transforming the treads, preventing the tread panels from getting in the way. Also in some copies of the toy, Megatron's left and right leg panels will randomly pop and stick out. This is especially prominent in tank and jet mode.

:Unsurprisingly, this mold was retooled into [[Blitzwing (G1)/toys#Titans Return|Blitzwing]], and redecoed into ''[[Street Fighter II × Transformers]]'' [[Megatron (G1)/toys#Street Fighter II × Transformers|Megatron]] <nowiki>[</nowiki>[[Vega#Toys|Vega]]<nowiki>]</nowiki>. Megatron would have been redecoed/retooled into [[Gutcruncher (G1)|Gutcruncher]] with a new Titan Master face for Doomshot as part of the "Action on Hydrus Four" boxset for BotCon 2017 that never came to be.

*'''One Shall Stand, One Shall Fall''' (2-pack, 2016)

:Part of Hasbro's ''[[Transformers: Platinum Edition|Platinum Edition]]'' offerings for 2016 intended to commemorate the 30th anniversary of ''[[The Transformers: The Movie]]'', this Megatron is another redeco of the ''Classics'' Voyager toy. Megatron features a new and significantly different deco for the sake of [[for safety reasons|gun safety laws]]. The sides of his gun mode are entirely cast in clear red plastic, his arms are a different shade of red plastic and there is red paint on the legs as well–in addition to the bright orange parts on both the tip of the barrel and the scope, just like the ''Classics'' figure. Whether by design or by accident, his deco strongly resembles the [[Toys"R"Us]] exclusive [[Nerf]] "[[wikia:nerf:Sonic FIRE|Sonic Fire]]" color scheme.

:''Platinum Edition'' Megatron was only available as part of a 2-pack with [[Optimus Prime (G1)/Generations toys#PEOSSOSF|Optimus Prime]], named "One Shall Stand, One Shall Fall" after Prime's famous line in the movie. In the United States and Canada, this set was officially released as an [[Amazon (website)|Amazon]] exclusive. It was also available in several of Hasbro's Asian markets (namely the Philippines and Singapore; it's currently unknown whether it was exclusive to any particular stores there or not). In Australia, it was sold at Myer stores, whereas in the United Kingdom, it was both sold at [[Toys"R"Us]] stores and available via Tesco's website (but never found in stores). Surprisingly, it was (and still is) a common find in Brazilian online stores.

:''[[War for Cybertron: Siege|Siege]]'' Megatron transforms from a G1 cartoon-esque robot to a <s>grizzly battle tank from the ''Command & Conquer'' series</s> Cybertronian tank and back! Megatron's robot mode is pretty accurate to the original cartoon, despite having a completely different altmode. He is armed with 2 weapons compatible with the [[C.O.M.B.A.T. System]], one of which is his trademark [[fusion cannon]] called the "D50-R35 Fusion Cannon". The other is the "HPR Telescopic Laserstrike Launcher," with two symmetrical blades facing the opposite direction, and can transform into a large sword resembling the sword included in the Takara release of the [[Megatron (G1)/toys#Generation 1|original Generation 1 toy]] and can be stored on his back. It can also be mounted on his back to resemble the gun barrel on the original cartoon model's back. Both can combine into the insanely large "NFM Particle Beam Megalauncher," which is meant to be held in his hands or over his head. Like his contemporaries in the ''Siege'' toyline, Megatron features 'battle damage' paint applications all over his head, chest, arms, and legs.

:[[File:TF-Generations-WFC-S-Voyager-Megatron-with-Soundwave's-Gun.jpg|left|thumb|200px|"Does this mean I'll turn back into a blaster?"]]
:Due to the way Megatron transforms, it's possible to rotate the turret 180 degrees and use the fusion cannon solely as the tank barrel, in the event one should lose the "Laserstrike Launcher" accessory; while not as aesthetically pleasing as the intended transformation, it still works.

:Megatron also suffers a slight design flaw: unlike with the left ankle, the right ankle's pivoting joint has a tendency to not lock back to its straight position once it is unlocked. The only way to amend this is by pressing the top end of the black plastic peg on the right foot. The light grey backpack/central front tank kibble also has a tendency to dislodge if his waist is moved left or right. Due to the Fusion Cannon's slightly longer post, the hand's dorsal panel slightly protrudes when in tank mode. [[Soundwave (G1)/toys#War for Cybertron: Siege|Soundwave]]'s additional gun can be slotted onto the back of the figure, perfectly mimicking his G1 gun barrel placement. Whether this was intentional or not is unclear.

:There is a message written in [[Cybertronian language|Cybertronian letters]] on Megatron's box art, which reads "RISE FROM THE SHADOWS". Megatron's pose in the instruction manual's front cover is based on the [[:File:Megatronguido.jpg|promotional artwork]] by [[Guido Guidi]].

:Amusingly, the first TakaraTomy (and later, Hasbro's secondary) stock photos of his robot mode depict him wielding the fusion cannon like a handheld weapon.

:Megatron was a notorious shelfwarmer, particularly in Asia, often unsold in large numbers.

:This mold was redecoed and retooled into multiple different Megatrons below.

:Promoting the ''Kingdom'' chapter of the Netflix ''War for Cybertron Trilogy'' cartoon, Megatron is a minor redeco of the [[#War for Cybertron Trilogy|above]] Netflix ''Siege''-based Megatron, with blue highlights on the "HPR Telescopic Laserstrike Launcher" instead of red, and more accurate chest battle damage (albeit, to his appearance in the ''Siege'' and first half of ''Earthrise'' chapters).

:Released as part of the third and final wave of ''[[War for Cybertron: Earthrise|Earthrise]]'' Voyager Class toys, Megatron is a heavy retool of ''Siege'' Megatron that converts into an Earth-based tank while sharing a mostly identical transformation scheme (and parts, such as the thighs, feet, front of the upper arms, forearms, and various inner parts). Megatron also retains the "battle damage" paint his ''Siege'' figure featured, mostly focused around his legs and tank-body. Unlike the stock render, the rear half of Megatron's shoulders are molded in black plastic. Megatron also features a "D-16" marking on the left side of his tank body, a reference to his Japanese ID number.

:Like the ''Siege'' figure, Megatron's turret also doubles as a melee weapon, though it must be forearm mounted in order to use the blade. To try and reduce his alternate mode's resemblance to a H-tank, he has a [[Partformer|partforming]] piece that is attached between his shins, or onto the bladed weapon. Stock photography for the above ''Generations Selects'' redeco shows the melee weapon can plug into his back as a back-mounted cannon, much like his "G1" cartoon design, and the filler part can be a forearm mounted shield.

:The new tooling to keep his head/neck flap more secure can make pulling his head out while transforming him to robot mode ''very'' difficult; the strain of doing so can cause the ball joint socket to crack, and form stress marks on his cheeks. This can be remedied by pushing the flap up from beneath using the tabs on the filler/shield piece.

:Like all ''Earthrise'' toys, Megatron comes with an exclusive piece of a clip-and-save of a larger star map, along with a translucent red decoder. Megatron's piece of the map, aptly, is the labeled location of "[[Cybertron (planet)|CYBERTRON]]".

:The [[energon mace]] accessory was sold separately as part of the ''War for Cybertron Trilogy'' [[Centurion droid#Toys|Deluxe Centurion Drone]] set above. The mace is intended for ''Earthrise'' Megatron's newly molded hands, so keep caution for a breakage risk if used on ''Siege'' Megatron.

*'''Super Megatron''' ([[September 26]], [[2020]])
**''Hasbro ID number:'' '''TT-GS09'''
**''Accessories:'' Fusion Cannon/starship nose/tank turret, triple-barrelled cannon

:''[[Generations Selects (toyline)|Generations Selects]]'' Super Megatron is an extensive retool of [[Galvatron (G1)/toys#Titans Return|''Titans Return'' Voyager Class Galvatron]], with the Titan Master gimmick being removed. The figure is based upon illustrations by [[Ban Magami]] for [[:File:SuperAndUltraMegatron.jpg|Super Megatron and Ultra Megatron]] from the ''[[Battlestars]]'' story pages, and is capable of assuming the two robot modes and two alternate modes featured therein. Although not officially a part of the [[War for Cybertron Trilogy (toyline)|''War for Cybertron'']] toyline, he has a grand total of 19(!) [[5 mm post|5 mm ports]] distributed throughout his new tooling, making him more than compatible with the [[C.O.M.B.A.T. System]].

:Being faithful to the illustrations it is based upon, the figure has both a space gunship mode (dubbed the Super Jet mode in [[Super Megatron comic 1]]) and a triple-barreled tank mode (referred to as the Ultra Tank mode in [[Super Megatron comic 1]]). The figure comes with his signature fusion cannon, which forms the nose of his gunship mode and the turret of his tank mode. He also has a triple-barreled cannon, which is stored inside the fusion cannon, and can be accessed by unfolding the front of the cannon and opening it up from the bottom. The triple-barreled cannon is detachable from the fusion cannon, and can be wielded by Super Megatron as a handheld weapon if you so choose.

:As mentioned before, the figure also has two robot modes to represent Super Megatron and his upgraded Ultra Megatron form, which differ in forehead and chest detailing. In service to this, Super Megatron's forehead and chest can be swapped around between his two robot modes. The two robot modes are also distinguished by weapon configuration (the fusion cannon being closed for Super Megatron and open for Ultra Megatron, and Ultra Megatron also featuring the triple-barrelled cannon mounted on his right shoulder) and gunship mode wing arrangement (folded for Super Megatron and unfolded for Ultra Megatron).

:Original to the figure and its [[Super Megatron comic 2|accompanying fiction]], a third robot mode was also designed and given the name "Ultra Megatron Omega", formed by taking the figure in its Ultra Megatron robot mode and swapping its face out for a more monstrous one. This new face appears to be an amalgam taking cues from both his [[Megatron (Movie)|live-action film counterpart]]'s mask in ''The Last Knight'', as well as the face of [[Dark Nova]]. If one so wishes, he can take the [[Silver Matrix]] accessory included with Star Convoy's ''Generations Selects'' [[Optimus Prime (G1)/Generations toys#Selects|figure]] and plug it into this figure's left shoulder to replicate his initial appearance upon transforming into this form. The ''Selects'' [[God Neptune comic 2|Special Comic promoting God Neptune]] further introduces a ''fourth'' robot mode, Ultra Megatron Omega: Perfect Form, into which the figure can also be configured.

:A feature not mentioned in the instructions is that the lower part of his helmet is attached via a [[C joint]] on the neck, and can be removed to allow easier access to the forehead and face-swapping gimmick. This is particularly helpful, as otherwise there isn't much clearance for it to turn, and the swivel is fairly tight.

:Contrary to popular belief, this figure ''is'' in scale with ''Selects'' [[Optimus Prime (G1)/Generations toys#Selects|Star Convoy]].

:This toy was released exclusively through [[TakaraTomy Mall]] in Japan and an EB Games exclusive in Australia.

**''TakaraTomy release date'': '''[[July 31]], 2021'''

:''[[War for Cybertron: Kingdom|Kingdom]]'' Core Class Megatron is a Legends-sized toy that can interact with Titan Class figures. He takes many cues from his larger ''Earthrise'' toy sculpt-wise, with similar robot and Earth-based tank forms... save for the head, which seems to be based on his ''Masterpiece'' figure. His tank mode lacks any kind of rolling wheels.

:Megatron features his trademark Fusion Cannon, but it is not removable. He includes a blaster resembling his original pistol alternate mode which forms his tank mode's barrel and has a stacked peg with 3-millimeter and 5-millimeter portions for compatibility with other Core figures as well as larger size classes. Shown in the instructions, but not specifically pointed out as such, the gun can plug into his back to replicate the gun barrel from the G1 figure.

==Notes==
[[File:SuperAndUltraMegatron.jpg|thumb|upright=1.2]]
*The design of ''[[Generations Selects (toyline)|Generations Selects]]'' Super Megatron is based on illustrations by [[Ban Magami]] from the ''[[Battlestars]]'' story pages (see right). What made the resulting figure especially faithful to the original illustrations was the fact that Magami created the character designs with a working transformation in mind.<ref>[https://tfsource.com/blog/2020/04/03/countdown-answering-5-big-questions-about-the-generations-selects-super-megatron/ COUNTDOWN: Answering 5 big questions about the Generations Selects Super Megatron at TFSource]</ref> This made it easy for the figure's designers to then use the [[Galvatron (G1)/toys#Titans Return|''Titans Return'' Voyager Class Galvatron]] figure as a base for retooling into Super Megatron.

:''Hot Shot is an [[Autobot]] [[Wrecker]] and [[Rescue Bot]] from the [[Aligned continuity family]].''

[[File:RBA Hotshot.jpg|thumb|upright=1.67|Back on TV as the [[kid-appeal character]] at last. Next stop, [[Live-action film series|Hollywood]]!]]

Whether on the [[Cube (sport)|Cube]] court or a rescue mission, '''Hot Shot''' is always looking for a chance to prove himself. Unfortunately, his desire to do so makes him prone to showing off around his more experienced peers. Maybe he'll eventually learn to stop diving head first into dangerous situations, but until then [[Heatwave (RB)|Heatwave]] and the [[Rescue Bot]]s will be stuck keeping him out of trouble.

Perhaps in another lifetime, he might have been a member of the crack commando squad, the [[Wrecker]]s! Luckily, he's already got a great team in the form of the other Rescue Bot trainees, and when the chips are down, Hot Shot knows they'll always have his back.

==Fiction==
===''Timelines''===
{{voiceactor|[[Jason Jansen]] (English)}}
[[File:Prime-HotShotCardArt.jpg|right|thumb|left|"It is not wise to mock my glowing energy mustache if you wish to continue living."]]
Hot Shot participated in a battle somewhere in the [[Rigel]] system alongside his fellow Wrecker [[Kup (WFC)|Kup]]. Kup had just finished telling Hot Shot one of his trademark stories when he noticed that the [[Vehicon (Prime)|Vehicons]] attacking them were sporting Enemy-class drone bodies. Luckily for Hot Shot, it ''just so happened'' that Kup had been present when the design had first been tested in battle! So, despite Hot Shot's protests, Kup decided to regale his junior with the thrilling story of his encounter with them.

After a good deal of time listening to Kup's story, Hot Shot realized that their Decepticon assailants have stopped firing upon them, which Kup revealed to have been part of his plan: wait until the Decepticons ran out of ammo, and then escape whilst they were restocking. Hot Shot began to express his gratitude at the end of Kup's story, only to learn that Kup ''hadn't'' finished.

When Kup finally ''did'' finish, Hot Shot quickly began pointing out major holes in his story, such as his recounting of events he ''hadn't even been present for''. Hot Shot's attention to detail only earned him a "'''''Shut up!'''''" from his fellow Wrecker. {{storylink|Unreliable Narratives}}

[[File:RecruitsI_Whirl_welcomes_Hot_Shot.jpg|thumb|left|280px]]
While playing [[Cube (sport)|Cube]] with his friends on [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]], Hot Shot was approached by [[Optimus Prime (WFC)|Optimus Prime]] who invited him to train as a [[Rescue Bot]]. Despite his misgivings, Hot Shot went to Earth, only to screw up the first test rescue and lose a stacking game to [[Wedge (RBA)|Wedge]]. {{storylink|Recruits Part I}} He was ready to give up and return to Cybertron when Optimus presented him with the [[Mul-T-Cog|Mul-T-Cog Badge]], bestowing upon him the ability to use an additional jet and hovercraft mode, though he could only pick one alternate mode per day. He successfully won a race against Wedge using his jet mode, but when the recruits attempted a cave rescue, Hot Shot realized his jet mode was useless there. The other recruits encouraged him not to give up, and he was instrumental in completing the rescue. {{storylink|Recruits Part II}}

[[File:TheSecretOfFlight Hot Shot jet mode.jpg|thumb|right|310px]]
[[Blades (RB)|Blades]] was called in to tutor Hot Shot when the recruit had trouble with his new jet mode. Though Hot Shot was unsure of the value of the lessons Blades was teaching at first, they allowed him to successfully conduct a rescue. {{storylink|The Secret of Flight}} As the result of another rescue, [[Hoist (RB)|Hoist]] made new attachments for the other recruits, including a sonic blaster for Hot Shot. {{storylink|If at First...}} During another rescue exercise, Hot Shot badly damaged [[Tough Luck Chuck]] and was forced to babysit the robot while new parts were found to repair him. His attempts to foist the duty off onto the other recruits resulted in Chuck escaping the [[Rescue Bot Training Center|training center]], and they had to hunt Chuck down in [[Milford]]. {{storylink|Tough Luck Chuck (episode)|Tough Luck Chuck}} Hot Shot was so bored by Chase's class on police codes that he started playing a hand-held game to pass the time. He and the other recruits persuaded Chase to let them try to do a practice rescue, and ended up being rescued themselves by [[Whirl (RBA)|Whirl]] when they got stuck in the snow. {{storylink|Whirl'd View}} When the recruits didn't understand why Boulder was having them plant flowers, the Rescue Bot set them a task which taught them that all parts of nature are important. {{storylink|Plan Bee}}

[[File:MountBotmore Hot Shot flees from head.jpg|thumb|left|280px|(Benny Hill theme)]]
Hot Shot and the other recruits were bugged when Wedge borrowed the trigger for the rescue alarm and had them constantly running drills to get their response time down. {{storylink|The Bot Who Cried Rescue}} When the recruits found out that the residents of [[Griffin Rock]] were carving the faces of the Rescue Bots into a mountain, Hot Shot decided to add his own face to the monument, endangering the [[Griffin Rock dam|nearby dam]]. {{storylink|Mount Botmore}} Hot Shot and Wedge ended up disregarding Hoist when their fellow recruit was put in charge of a rescue mission, and as a result, their own efforts almost ended up in disaster. {{storylink|Mission Inaudible}} After completing a simulated rescue, despite a glitch occurring, the recruits took part in a real rescue in Griffin Rock which was only successful because the glitch gave [[Medix (RB)|Medix]] an idea to complete it safely. {{storylink|Glitch (episode)|Glitch}}

After a ride on the ''[[Sigma]]'', the recruits assumed the four command chairs meant one of their number wouldn't graduate. The team went on to botch a volcano rescue drill after staying up all night worrying, until Heatwave told them they'd assumed wrong. {{storylink|Five into Four}} When Whirl was filming footage for a recruitment video, Hot Shot showed off his target shooting skills and almost destroyed the camera. He and the others later helped whip the footage into a usable state. {{storylink|Rescue Promo}} Hot Shot botched a rescue mission and tried to blame it on the other recruits. Heatwave assigned him to watch the rescue monitors, but after he went off to do a rescue on his own and the other recruits had to go help, he admitted his failure. {{storylink|Blame Game}} Hot Shot and the other recruits set up a surprise rescue mission for Medix, who didn't get the appeal of surprises. Unfortunately, the mission did not go well, and the other recruits promised to stop with the surprises. {{storylink|Medix Surprise}}

[[File:BattleOfTheBots Hot Shot plays Cube.jpg|thumb|right|250px]]
Hot Shot attempted to cover up the fact he'd never used a [[TX3000]] before when five of them were loaned to the rescue center for the recruits to try out. As a result, he almost botched a rescue and had to admit his inexperience. {{storylink|The TX3000}} The recruits had to round up a lost flock of sheep, but were hampered by Hoist malfunctioning. {{storylink|Little Bot Peep}} Hot Shot showed off his skills at the agility course to visiting [[Lad Pioneer|Teen Pioneer]] [[Wes]]. {{storylink|Driving a Wedge}} Boulder accompanied the recruits to the planet [[Parvus]] where they rescued the last surviving [[Galax]]. {{storylink|The Big, Small Rescue}}

Hot Shot's assertion he'd do anything to get an entry in the [[Heroes of Cybertron (cards)|Heroes of Cybertron]] cards resulted in Wedge challenging him to a competition. Hot Shot won the construction section, and though Wedge was demoralized by the loss, Hot Shot talked him into continuing with the Cube section, and Wedge managed to win. The two bots decided to keep it as a tie, and Hoist presented them with custom cards. {{storylink|Battle of the Bots}} When an alien rock went missing, suspicion fell on Hot Shot, but it turned out the rock was actually an alien which the recruits then had to round up. {{storylink|About a Rock}} The recruits tried to keep secret the fact a dog had followed them home after the last rescue, only to discover that the dog was actually trying to alert them to the fact they'd missed someone who needed rescuing. {{storylink|Dog Stray Afternoon}}

[[File:FrightAtTheMuesum Hot Shot ATV mode.jpg|thumb|left|280px]]
After Hot Shot lost his confidence, Cody loaned him a lucky [[Rubber Ducky|Rubber Duck]], which gave him the confidence to successfully take part in a rescue. Cody later revealed he'd pickpocketed the duck off Hot Shot before the mission, causing Hot Shot to realize the confidence was inside him all along. {{storylink|Lucky Ducky}} Hot Shot and the other recruits struggled when Whirl tried to get them to learn cheerleading, but the skills they picked up eventually helped them conduct a rescue in Griffin Rock. {{Storylink|Go Team, Go!}} The five recruits swiftly became addicted to smartphones when Boulder assigned them the task of learning about the devices, resulting in them screwing up rescue exercises and their chores. {{Storylink|Screen Time}} During a field trip to the muesum in Milford, Hot Shot and the others helped Whirl catch a criminal in the act. {{storylink|Fright at the Museum}}

When the ''Sigma'' returned to base without the teachers, the recruits had to take the ship and go to their rescue, though not without Hot Shot and Wedge fighting over who was temporary captain. {{storylink|Space Case (episode)|Space Case}} During a trash collection exercise, Hot Shot didn't collect much on account of having to chase a squirrel with a shoe. He had the same problem with an under-sea trash collection mission, only this time with a fish. He and the other recruits also had to rescue Medix from a shark. {{storylink|All at Sea}} Hot Shot and the other recruits had to deal with an out-of-control [[Scrub-A-Dubber]] after inserting too many power cells into it. {{storylink|All Washed Up}}

[[File:BalloonUpATree Hot Shot and Whirl up a tree.jpg|thumb|right|340px]]
Hot Shot's attempt at demonstrating a rescue ended with him falling on his face when the students tried their hands at teaching. {{storylink|Who's Teaching Who?}} During a mission to retrieve a balloon from a tree, Hot Shot immediately dove in without a plan and ended up making the situation much much worse, including a brief ride on a rocket and ending with a crane perched on top of a building. {{storylink|Balloon Up A Tree}} A fantasy simulation saw the recruits trying to corral a dragon, until they worked out that the dragon was actually trying to help. {{storylink|The Mystery of Dragon Mountain}} Preferring to play ''[[Invasion of the Giant Hedgehogs]]'' rather than learn, Hot Shot hit on the idea of hacking Chase's car inspection sim to include giant goop-spitting hedgehogs. The other recruits were not impressed, and Hot Shot's attempt to deal with the hedgehogs himself was ineffective, but it did give the others time to come up with a plan to shut the sim down. {{storylink|Hack Attack}}

Hot Shot and the other recruits found their rescues complicated by Medix's attempts to loosen up after they suggested he was a stick in the mud. {{Storylink|Life of the Party}} The recruits were keen to be taught by new teacher [[Grimlock (RID 2015)|Grimlock]] but discovered Hoist was afraid of Dinobots. {{storylink|Tyrannosaurus Wrecked}} A trip to [[Wayward Island|Dino Island]] hit a snag when a dinosaur escaped back through the GroundBridge, disabling it in the process so Grimlock and the recruits had to make their own way back to the academy. {{storylink|Dino Hard}} When Chase assigned the recruits a stealth mission, Hot Shot was dismayed to be paired with Grimlock. He ended up ditching his partner, only for it to later turned out that Grimlock was the only one to successfully complete the mission. {{storylink|Buddy Cop}} Another mission saw the recruits having to rescue penguins from an island the hard way after an electrical storm knocked out their tools and even their ability to transform. {{storylink|Escape from Penguin Island}}

[[File:FlyingHunkAJunk Hot Shot trash.jpg|thumb|left|290px]]
During a series of search and rescue missions, Hot Shot and the others were surprised to learn Hoist had cheated on one of the tests. {{storylink|All that Glitters}} A hunt for a downed satellite resulted in the recruits hiding out backstage at [[Dig Fest (event)|Dig Fest]] while trying to signal Wedge. {{storylink|Dig Fest (episode)|Dig Fest}} The recruits took part in [[Halloween]] festivities, however when Hot Shot mistook a person in a wolfman costume for an actual monster, he accidentally started a house fire which the recruits then had to deal with. {{storylink|Trick or Treat}} Medix's confusion over a television commercial meant that the recruits had to mount a hasty coverup so he wouldn't blow their secret to all of Milford. {{storylink|Monster Savings}} Hot Shot and the others got a tune stuck in their heads, impairing their performance on a training exercise. They managed to forget the tune, but this caused problems on a mission to the planet [[Herboo]], as it was the code needed for the [[Virtual Sonic Fence]] Hoist needed to use to stop the [[karknoid beetle]]. {{storylink|Tune Out}}

A trip to survey a geyser field saw the recruits having to deal with a swarm of [[Scraplet]]s. {{storylink|Metal Munchers}} Hot Shot and the other recruits took part in essential maintenance as directed by [[Bumblebee (WFC)|Bumblebee]], unlike Wedge who spent the whole time trying to impress his hero, and they were therefore fully functional for the following rescue drill. {{storylink|Bee Prepared}} When Whirl's failed attempts to do a maneuver led her to try to seek out the Wise One, the other recruits went after her and became trapped in a ravine, requiring her to rescue them using the maneuver she had been trying to perfect. {{storylink|Whirl's Wise-Bot Quest}} Hot Shot discovered the easiest way to deal with recycling was to just throw it in the trash, which led to a giant ball of junk threatening the satellite they were trying to fix. {{storylink|Flying Hunk-A-Junk}}

[[File:BestBotsForever1 Hot Shot hovercraft mode.jpg|thumb|right|250px]]
Hot Shot completely failed to follow Wedge and Medix's instructions while blindfolded, resulting in them failing the trust exercise. A subsequent mission deep undersea forced the recruits to rely on each other as they rescued an automated drone from deep sea wildlife. {{Storylink|Into the Depths}} When Hot Shot got distracted playing with puppies, the dogs ended up running off thanks to Hoist's new comms system alarming them, and the recruits were forced to hunt for them. {{storylink|Milford Goes To The Dogs}} As he only needed another point to get to the top of the leader board, Hot Shot was determined to succeed at the next sim. Though the recruits struggled at first, Hot Shot eventually worked out how to save the simulated humans. {{storylink|The Ice Wave}}

On the eve of the recruits' graduation from year one, Optimus arrived with Hot Shot's old friend [[Scorch (RBA)|Scorch]] who wanted Hot Shot to play as part of Scorch's Cube team, the [[Cyberblazers]]. Though Hot Shot was determined to impress Scorch with the recruits' rescue work, Scorch eventually persuaded him, and after farewelling his friends, Hot Shot returned to Cybertron. {{storylink|Best Bots Forever Part 1}} Despite a rocky start, Hot Shot sold his new teammates on the concept of teamwork prior to the start of the Cube final. They went on to win the championship, but Hot Shot was reminded of his friends on Earth and opted to return there instead of celebrating. He arrived in time to help burst an energon bubble that was threatening the entire planet, and apologized to the other recruits for abandoning them. He and the other recruits took part in their graduation ceremony. {{storylink|Best Bots Forever Part 1}}

At the start of year two, the recruits returned to the Academy to find they'd been given personal spaces—Heatwave quickly worked out Hot Shot was just going to use his area to play Cube—and were to be put through a series of tests so [[Ratchet (WFC)|Ratchet]]'s [[Aptitude Analyzer]] could assign them an appropriate mentor. Though Hot Shot was hoping for Optimus, he ended up paired with Heatwave. {{storylink|Back to School}} He and the other recruits got some new training simulations courtesy of Ratchet. {{storylink|Mission Dinobot}}

Apprehensive at working with Heatwave, Hot Shot was taken about when his mentor had him carry out a series of chores. It wasn't until he applied what he'd learned while rescuing some foxes from a forest fire that he realized Heatwave had taught him something after all. {{storylink|In Training}} During a trip to Ratchet's lab on Cybertron, Hot Shot ended up getting blamed when Medix's bat [[Mister Flappy]] caused trouble. Hot Shot pursued the bat into the testing chamber and had to be rescued by Medix. {{Storylink|Medix Steps Up To The Bat}}

When the recruits thought Cody was unhappy because he wasn't a giant robot like them, they built him a robotic suit which caused chaos during their mission to rescue a rogue bull. Cody later clarified that he was just missing hanging out with the recruits. {{storylink|Robo-Cody}} Heatwave tasked the recruits with acting in the play [[Jack and the Beanstalk]]. Hot Shot tackled the role of Jack's mother with gusto, believing it made him Jack's boss. The play ended in near disaster when the stage almost collapsed. {{storylink|Acting Out}} Hot Shot and the others found Wedge's boredom was interfering with their study time. Wedge later surprised them by being enthusiastic about studying. {{storylink|Need to Know}}

On discovering that Grimlock had a classic Cube, Hot Shot "borrowed" it and had Hoist juice up its AI, only for the cube to become unstoppable and escape the Academy. Hot Shot eventually had to confess to Grimlock what he'd done so the teacher could help them recapture the Cube. {{storylink|Trouble Cubed}} When Heatwave let the recruits pick their favorite rescue to do, Hot Shot immediately picked one involving a broken down submarine and sharks. The disagreement over which simulation to run resulted in the recruits accidentally breaking the control unit and plunging the sim into chaos until they worked together to fix the unit. {{storylink|My Favorite Rescue}}

After Ratchet got trapped in an ancient sim, the five recruits entered the sim as well. They successfully negotiated their way through a tower full of traps and rescued their teacher, completing the sim and opening the vault to find four Mul-T-Cogs and an ancient artifact. {{storylink|The Vault Of The Primes}} Hot Shot was too busy practicing a fire rescue with Heatwave to help Whirl on her ghost investigation. {{storylink|Wild Ghost Chase}} Following a soil-sampling mission on some dwarf planets, Hot Shot and the others found Medix had replanted the Galax in the academy garden, which it had promptly taken over, forcing them to relocate it to a more suitable home. {{storylink|Little Plot of Horrors}}

Hot Shot attended the opening of the [[Museum of Future Tech Art]]. {{storylink|Museum Mystery}} He joined the other recruits and mentors in rescuing [[Ezra Greene|Doc Greene]] and [[Frankie Greene|Frankie]] from a shrinking [[force field]], though Heatwave mainly had him putting out fires. {{storylink|Partners (RBA)|Partners}} Medix's overly-harsh criticism of the other recruits made them upset at him, however his overcompensation then led them to believe they had mastered a rescue technique when they had not. {{storylink|Critical Condition}} During a visit to [[Mechapark]], Hot Shot got stuck on a malfunctioning ride and had to be rescued by Whirl. {{storylink|Fun Droids}}

When the [[Sparksayer]] bestowed Hot Shot with a new combicannon, he wasn't thrilled about the choice and attempted to trade it for Wedge's auger, only to find that the tools would only activate for their intended user. {{storylink|Power Up And Energize}} Cody had the five recruits learn some ballet to improve their poise and balance during rescues. {{storylink|Shall We Dance?}} Encouraged by Heatwave, Hot Shot tried to overcome his Mul-T-Cog's one-per-day limitation, believing it was his ticket to fame. It wasn't until the other recruits tricked him into thinking a sim rescue was real that he succeeded. {{storylink|Mul-T-Change of Pace}} During a camping trip on [[Natura Island]], Hot Shot and the others were transported to a junkyard by the island's security system, necessitating a rescue by Whirl and Chase. Hot Shot insisted on reactivating the [[Scrapmaster]] before they left. {{storylink|Five Little Rescue Bots}}

After accidentally messing up Hoist's museum, Hot Shot immediately wanted to cover it up, but Medix pointed out this course of action would surely end in disaster so Hot Shot cleaned up the mess instead. He later again caused a mess when he was attacked by a diagnostic tool unleashed by Medix, though fortunately Medix confessed and took the blame off Hot Shot. {{storylink|Good Advice}} During a camping trip, Hot Shot was so terrified by Cody's ghost story that he ran into a tree, dislodging his comm transmitter. They returned to the academy, but Hot Shot's transmitter continued to make him hear the sounds of the forest, making him think they'd been followed back by the [[Zombie Ghost Bear]] until they worked out what had happened. They returned to find the transmitter and rescued a bear cub in the process. {{storylink|Campfire Fright}}

When it turned out Hot Shot's Mul-T-Cog could activate the four additional Mul-T-Cogs from the vault, he had the great idea to get the other recruits to test them, only to discover that the cogs weren't powered up enough and the other recruits could no longer transform. Though it cost him his own ability to transform, Hot Shot used his cog to fully activate the other four. It later turned out that they in turn could reactivate his Mul-T-Cog with theirs, and he even gained the ability to scan a fourth alternate mode. {{storylink|Small Cogs}} He decided to scan a rocket to give himself more speed, however after he accidentally caused a fire, he realized Heatwave's firetruck mode would be infinitely more useful, and scanned that instead. {{storylink|Big Wheels}}

The recruits' first solo off-world mission took them to a deserted city, where they rescued Scorch and his Cube team from an arena and discovered the whole place was a long-lost [[Titan (group)|Titan]], [[Citadel Secundus]]. {{storylink|The Empty City}} After taking part in Mentor Training Day with Heatwave, Hot Shot teamed up with his mentor again for a "rescue-athon". {{storylink|First Responder}}

Boulder assigned the recruits the task of training Scraplets, resulting in Hot Shot producing an anti-Scraplet device - a wooden box he hid in. The recruits eventually gave up after failing in their task. During a subsequent mission to prevent a power plant from exploding down, it turned out Medix had managed to train the Scraplets after all, saving the day. {{storylink|How To Train Your Scraplet}} Hot Shot took part in a window washing rescue sim, and helped extinguish fires in [[Crook's Canyon]]. {{storylink|Helicopter Heroes}} He and the other recruits were dispatched to [[Australia]] to help [[Brushfire (RB)|Brushfire]] with some [[kangaroo]]s, and ended up fighting fires. {{storylink|Brushfire (episode)|Brushfire}} Hot Shot raced Whirl, resulting in her realizing she wasn't confident enough in her new police car mode. {{storylink|The Ties That Bind (episode)|The Ties That Bind}}

After tripping over a ball during a training exercise, Hot Shot was unaware that Whirl had filmed him and uploaded the video to the Rescue Network. He later found out during a mission to Dino Island, but was happy his video had gone viral. Unfortunately it turned out the Rescue Network wasn't fully online and the video hadn't gone viral after all. {{storylink|Bot Blog}} When the recruits recovered the [[Decepticon]] [[Laserbeak (WFC)|Laserbeak]] from a stricken ship, Hot Shot was adamant that all Decepticons were evil and they shouldn't be helping the 'Con. It was only after Wedge revealed that he had originally been created as a Decepticon that Hot Shot realized he was wrong and helped track down the injured Laserbeak. {{storylink|More Than Meets The Eye (RBA)|More Than Meets The Eye}} Hot Shot took part in a volcano rescue sim. {{storylink|Things That Go Bot In The Night}}

During some lessons by Perceptor, Hot Shot was able to use his Cube skills to show how he'd stop a falling satellite. He and the other recruits later had to rescue Medix when their fellow recruit ran into trouble trying to impress the teacher. {{storylink|Medix Gets Schooled}} He and the other recruits experienced jealousy when a group of teens began carrying out rescues in Milford and getting press. {{storylink|Rescue Teens}}

Perceptor sent the recruits to [[Sifrolicous-5]] to discover why the planet changed color, and they found [[mudlubber]]s, who turned out to be exactly suited to the environment. {{storylink|Enter The Flood}} Hot Shot took part in a cow rescue, during which Whirl was injured and had to spend time recovering in a stasis pod. {{storylink|Wizard Of Botz}} When Hot Shot was assigned the task of maintenance on Hero Hall, the other recruits were skeptical of his abilities and Hoist attempted to do the work for him. As a result, Hoist screwed up and allowed creatures to escape the simulation. Though the pair did their best to recover the creatures without anyone knowing, a dragon menacing Milford was a bit much and forced them to come clean to Heatwave. Fortunately Hoist was able to reprogram the dragon into a blimp so they could safely return it to the academy. {{storylink|One Of Our Dragons Is Missing}}

Hot Shot and the other recruits were taken on a field trip to a tropical island to study volcanoes, though Hot Shot was disappointed it wasn't a vacation. {{storylink|Dino-mite Duo}} They joined Heatwave in responding to a vague message from Citadel Secundus, only to find the Titan was just in need of some company. {{storylink|The Lonely Titan}} When the recruits were teamed up with geologist [[Finn O'Reilly]], Hot Shot was skeptical that the human would be useful as they followed clues they believed would lead them to treasure. Finn proved himself more than useful and saved Hot Shot from the chest of [[Tox-En]] which they found, so Hot Shot was pals with him from then on. {{storylink|X Marks The Bot}}

Hot Shot attempted to tutor Wedge when he realized his team mate was having trouble getting used to using his speed, but his tutoring style was terrible until Bumblebee gave him some pointers. {{storylink|Making Tracks (RBA)|Making Tracks}} Grimlock's lesson that the recruits needed to be louder gave Hot Shot the idea to create sirens for them all. This worked insofar as Grimlock was happy, but during a mission to the planet [[Krimol]], they found loud noises aggravated the local wildlife. {{Storylink|Don't Be Alarmed}} Heatwave had Hot Shot and the other recruits retrieve toxic barrels from the seabed and rescue Jerry in order to teach them to exercise more restraint in using their power up tools. {{storylink|Powerless}}

After discovering that Medix was into DJ Mechmaster's electronic music, the recruits joined him in rescuing the DJ during a charity concert in Griffin Rock, and even took part in the show masquerading as stage props. {{storylink|Griffin Rock Rocks!}} Learning that Dig Fest had added a "Bot Battle" event, Hot Shot became determined to enter. His hand was forced when his careless words resulted in Chuck entering the event, so he also entered the event in order to protect Chuck. As it turned out, Chuck didn't need protecting and indeed won the event, leading Hot Shot to see him in a whole new light. {{storylink|Bot Battle}}

Following the successful completion of the last test of year two, the recruits were rewarded with a party aboard Citadel Secundus. Hot Shot opted not to go, instead wanting to create a nanobot sculpture to thank Heatwave and the other teachers for not giving up on him. Despite Whirl's help, the sculpture didn't quite turn out like he planned, however the pair found they had a new emergency as Secundus had been hit by an asteroid, knocking out him and everyone on board except Wedge, and was on a crash course for Earth. {{storylink|Space Party}} Being short a few teammates, Hot Shot and Whirl rounded up some of the friends they'd made and with their help, were able to remotely take control of Secundus, landing the Titan safely near the Academy. Following the graduation ceremony, Hot Shot presented the sculpture, reconfigured into a Rescue Bot insignia. {{storylink|Crash Of The Titan}}

===Precursor World===
Hot Shot was a member of the [[Blue Order]] of the [[Primus Vanguard]]. He and his comrades followed their commander [[Blue Big Convoy]] into battle when a duel between [[G1 World|dimension-tossed]] future warriors [[Megatron (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity#Generations Selects Special Comic (1)|Ultra Megatron]] and [[Optimus Prime (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Star Convoy]] threatened the [[Blue Planet (Generations)|Blue Planet]] and [[Beast People|its people]]. {{storylink|Super Megatron comic 2}}

In short order the battle went sideways when the traitorous [[Straxus (G1)#Precursor World|Straxus twins]] unleashed a rage virus to destroy the corps from within, and Hot Shot was attacked by fellow Blue Warrior [[Brainstorm (G1)#Precursor World|Brainstorm]] in the ensuing free-for-all. {{storylink|God Neptune comic 1}}

Evidently eventually slain in the brawl, Hot Shot was later memorialized with a hologram in the inner sanctum of the [[Ivory Towers]] by [[Magna Convoy]]. {{storylink|Cybertron Magna Convoy prequel comic}}

*'''Hot Shot''' (Deluxe Class, [[2012]])
**''Series/number'': '''1/009'''
**''Accessories'': 2 arm-mounted blasters

: Part of the third wave of ''[[Transformers: Prime (toyline)#Robots in Disguise (2012)|Prime: Robots in Disguise]]'' Deluxe Class toys, Hot Shot is a [[redeco]] and new-head [[retool]] of the ''Prime: Robots in Disguise'' [[Bumblebee (WFC)/toys#Prime|Bumblebee]] mold. He transforms into an [[Urbana 500]] sports car with a blue color scheme [[homage|homaging]] ''[[Transformers: Cybertron (franchise)|Cybertron]]'' [[Hot Shot (Armada)#Cybertron cartoon|Hot Shot]] and flames homaging [[Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2001 franchise)|2001 ''Robots in Disguise'']] [[Hot Shot (RID)|Hot Shot]]. He comes with two snap-on blasters which can [[5 mm post|mount]] on his engine block, arms, and hands, and can combine to form a larger quad-barreled cannon. The front section features an [[Automorph Technology|automorph]] gimmick, with the shoulders geared together with the head and the top of the hood folding up into Hot Shot's chest when pushed into place. His new head, modeled after ''[[Transformers: Armada (franchise)|Armada]]'' [[Hot Shot (Armada)#Armada cartoon|Hot Shot]] and ''[[Transformers Animated (franchise)|Animated]]'' [[Hot Shot (Animated)|Hot Shot]], features a flip-down visor/goggles. Be careful with his roof, doors, and visor; they're made entirely of translucent blue plastic.

*'''Off-Road Rescue Hot Shot''' ([[2018]])

:Hot Shot is functionally a significantly scaled up version of Bumblebee's rock-crawler toy from the "[[Bumblebee (WFC)/toys#Rescue Pack|Rock Rescue Team]]". Transforming into an ATV and with elements based on his ''[[Transformers: Rescue Bots Academy (cartoon)|Rescue Bots Academy]]'' design, Off-Road Rescue Hot Shot is a 10-inch tall toy that transforms from a robot to a red 4WD rescue truck with an “Easy 2 Do” conversion. Hot Shot features a button on his chest that activates lights and sounds, including a light up chest and eyes and a flashing lightbar. When opening the roof of the vehicle to form his arms, the classic transformation sound plays. He also features lines recorded by his in-show voice actor Pierce Cravens.

:This version of Hot Shot is an extensive retool of the [[Bumblebee (WFC)/toys#RescanJet|Rescan VTOL jet version of Bumblebee]], with most parts significantly modified. Hot Shot now transforms into a jet or plane, with his signature chest harness now forming the front of the plane. A blue windowed cockpit sits near the rear wings. As with the original version of this figure, Hot Shot has arm articulation that has nothing to do with this transformation scheme.

:The original version was also differently retooled into the [[Blades (RB)#RescanVTOL|Rescan series VTOL version of Blades]] which, oddly enough, was later redecoed and given a new head for his teammate [[Whirl (RBA)#AcadRescTeam|Whirl in the "Academy Rescue Team" box-set]].

==Notes==
* Hot Shot's ''Prime'' toy is a smorgasbord of homages, featuring elements from ''every other'' incarnation of Hot Shot. By contrast, his ''Rescue Bots Academy'' design is near-exclusively based on [[Hot Shot (Armada)|''Armada'' Hot Shot]], but with a red ATV mode instead of a yellow car (presumably to distinguish him further from [[Bumblebee (WFC)|Bumblebee]]). Early concept art also showed his vehicle mode was more akin to a 4x4 offroad jeep compared to the buggy-like alt mode of the final design.
* As the ''Prime'' Hot Shot toy is an existing mold altered to make a new character, so is his [[package art|card art]]; it's a stock promotional render of Bumblebee with new colors and a slightly altered head.
* If the recruits were to have a official age order, [[Pete Slattery]] would write Hot Shot to be right in the middle <ref> [https://twitter.com/PeteSlatteryIE/status/1276778456659918848 | Pete Slattery on Twitter, June 27 2020]</ref>

{{factions|autobot}}
{{disambig3|Dinobots}}
:''The Dinobots are an [[Autobot]] [[subgroup]] from the [[Transformers Animated (franchise)|Animated]] [[continuity family]].''

[[File:DinobotsAnimated.jpg|right|252px|thumb|We're Back! A Dinobots Story.]]

The violent and primitive '''Dinobots''' began their existence as animatronic theme park exhibits, until an [[AllSpark Key]] upgrade granted them sparks. Imbued with a range of combat abilities by [[Megatron (Animated)|Megatron]], they bear the Autobot insignia, but they have no interest in taking part in the Earth conflict. All they want is to live on their [[Dinobot Island (Animated)|island]], with the occasional trip to the mainland to beat the tar out of someone.

The Dinobots are:
* [[Grimlock (Animated)|Grimlock]] (leader)
* [[Swoop (Animated)|Swoop]]
* [[Snarl (Animated)|Snarl]]

Grimlock speaks for the group, figuratively and literally—Swoop and Snarl are silent, possibly mute.

{{bigquote|Dinobots RULE!|Grimlock tells it like it is|"[[Black Friday (episode)|Black Friday]]"}}

==Fiction==
===''Animated'' cartoon===
Grimlock and the Dinobots were originally animatronic [[dinosaur (dinosaur)|dinosaur]] models at the [[Dino Drive]] theme park that were badly damaged by the clumsy Autobot [[Bulkhead (Animated)|Bulkhead]]. The remains were brought to [[Isaac Sumdac (Animated)|Isaac Sumdac]]'s lab for repair, where the disembodied Megatron took an interest in them and attempted to turn them into robotic attack drones as practice for re-creating his own body. Thusly rebuilt, the Dinobots went on a rampage at Dino Drive, but were restrained by the Autobots when [[Ratchet (Animated)|Ratchet]] and [[Bumblebee (Animated)|Bumblebee]] captured them in an electromagnetic field. When the [[AllSpark Key]] reacted by tugging her toward her Autobot friends, she plugged it into Bumblebee's weapons systems to boost their powers, but this only resulted in the Dinobots being blasted with AllSpark energy. The three robots were apparently left deactivated by the blast and were returned to Sumdac's lab once more. It was there, however, that the full extent of their exposure to the AllSpark's energy was revealed, as the three Dinobots suddenly came to life!

[[File:Dinobotsrobotmode.JPG|left|upright=1.3|thumb|Dinobots, transform…AND GET FUNKY!!]]
The ''Tyrannosaurus'' dubbed itself Grimlock and declared itself to be leader of the group, despite Megatron's attempts to give the trio orders. In contrast, the lab's other occupant, the [[Tutor Bot]], happily responded to Megatron's cries for obedience and began a lesson on dinosaurs, their connection to fossil fuels, and the use of fossil fuels in cars. The simple-minded Grimlock took this to mean that cars "ate" dinosaurs, and Megatron convinced the trio to destroy these "fossil feeders", including the only thing worse than cars...cars and trucks that turn into robots. Equipped with deadly [[fire-breath]] thanks to Megatron's enhancements, the Dinobots set about their task immediately, inevitably drawing the attention of the Autobots. At Bulkhead's suggestion, the Autobots drew them to a deserted parking lot, where the Dinobots wound up defeating themselves by melting down the lot's maccadam surface into tar and getting stuck in it.

Sumdac intended to destroy the Dinobots, writing them off as mindless machines, and [[Optimus Prime (Animated)|Optimus Prime]] agreed with his decision, but [[Prowl (Animated)|Prowl]] could sense the spark of life within them. With Bulkhead's help, he relocated them to a deserted island where they could live peacefully and undisturbed. Grimlock took an almost immediate dislike to some birds that defecated on him, but his anger had an unforeseen effect: It triggered another of Megatron's enhancements and caused him to [[Transformation|transform]] into [[robot mode]]! Snarl and Swoop were quite shocked, but Grimlock was rather pleased with the results. {{storylink|Blast from the Past}}

Some time after the Dinobots were deposited on the island, [[Meltdown (Animated)|Meltdown]] arrived to use the island as a hideout to create transformable humans. With his acid touch, he forcibly made the Dinobots his servants under threat of pain. In addition to having them serve as guards, Meltdown sent Swoop to kidnap Sari Sumdac. When Prowl and Bulkhead arrived to investigate, the Dinobots attacked them. After being dropped into Meltdown's base, [[Carmine Fanzone|Captain Fanzone]], who had followed the [[Autobot]]s, grabbed one of Meltdown's protective suits, which he used to trap the villain. Now free of Meltdown's control, the Dinobots transformed into robot mode and prepared to take their revenge on him. This wasn't totally unexpected; Prowl even offered Meltdown a choice: prison or the Dinobots. Then [[Colossus Rhodes]] and [[Fusion creature|two of Meltdown's early transforming-humans experiments]] walked out, and the Dinobots turned their attention toward them, terrifying the trio of mutants right before pulverizing them. Captain Fanzone decided that as long as the Dinobots stayed out of [[Detroit]], he didn't have a problem with them being on the island, but Bulkhead and Prowl remained unsure whether or not they should inform Prime of what happened. {{storylink|Survival of the Fittest}}

[[File:Megatron Rising Autobot Dinobot standoff.JPG|right|upright=1.1|thumb|The Cybertron Bowl X-mas Game is about to kickoff.]]

It turned out that they decided to tell Prime nothing, but they were forced to reveal the truth when the Decepticons began preparations for a strike. Optimus was taken to Dinobot Island and tried to convince the Dinobots to help. Grimlock pretty much told Prime to slag off, saying that they destroyed robots. When Prime pointed out that the Dinobots were robots as well, they began fighting. {{storylink|Megatron Rising - Part 1}} Later, [[Omega Supreme (Animated)|Teletran-1]] crashed on Dinobot Island, and the Autobots and [[Decepticon]]s held their battle there. No sign of the Dinobots.

{{note|The Dinobots were originally going to assist Optimus against Megatron, and this scene was indeed animated, but the quality was said to be so poor it was cut out.}}
After the [[Elite Guard|Cybertron Elite Guard]] arrived on Earth, Optimus took [[Supreme Commander]] [[Ultra Magnus (Animated)|Ultra Magnus]] and [[Sentinel Prime (Animated)|Sentinel Prime]] to investigate Optimus Prime's claims that the AllSpark was dispersed. En route to the ship, the Dinobots jumped the Autobots. Sentinel Prime was unimpressed, telling them to "shoo". Grimlock's transformation was a little more impressive, as was his sword. Ultra Magnus summoned lightning with his hammer, and the Dinobots sneaked away into the wilderness. {{storylink|The Elite Guard}}

It was later learned that [[Blackarachnia (Animated)|Blackarachnia]] had washed ashore after falling off [[Omega Supreme (Animated)|Teletran-1]], and the Dinobots took her in. Grimlock, an Alpha Male in the worst sense of the word, immediately claimed "Spider-Lady" as his, and he was not above using force to remind Swoop and Snarl. While she recuperated, Blackarachnia explored Meltdown's lair and discovered his genetic research. Realizing that he could remove her organic half and make fully robotic, Blackarachnia had the Dinobots liberate Meltdown from prison. After learning of their involvement, Optimus Prime, Prowl, and [[Bumblebee (Animated)|Bumblebee]] arrived, but Blackarachnia infected Bumblebee and Prowl with her venom, demanding that Optimus help Grimlock retrieve a genetic modifier from Meltdown's lab. However, once he had the modifier, Meltdown decided to remove the robotic half from Blackarachnia, intending to gain an organic Transformer, and sicced his two mutants on Prime and Grimlock. Fortunately, Swoop and Snarl arrived to help Grimlock, and Optimus removed the modifier before it changed Blackarachnia. Meltdown attempted to retrieve the device, but touching it caused him to break apart at a molecular level. Blackarachnia used Grimlock's jealousy to her advantage by getting close to Optimus, compelling Grimlock to attack the Autobot. Seeing that she had fled, Grimlock begged Blackarachnia to come back, saying that he loved her, but to no avail. Grimlock ran off practically in tears. Swoop and Snarl seemed okay. {{storylink|Black Friday (episode)|Black Friday}}

The Dinobots later watched as an oil container with the [[Constructicon (Animated)|Constructicons]] riding on top of it appeared off the coast of [[Dinobot Island (Animated)|their island]] and exploded. {{storylink|Three's a Crowd}}

As part of the Dinobots' continued assistance of Blackarachnia in her [[technorganic]] experimentation (despite her apparent earlier desertion), Swoop kidnapped [[Wasp]], then stood guard with the other Dinobots as Blackarachnia convinced Wasp to undergo experimentation, turning him into Waspinator. [[Jetfire (Animated)|Jetfire]] and [[Jetstorm (Animated)|Jetstorm]] beat the Dinobots up while [[Sentinel Prime (Animated)|Sentinel Prime]] snuck by them. The Dinobots were nearby and incapacitated when Waspinator went critical, taking out most of [[Dinobot Island (Animated)|Dinobot Island]]. {{storylink|Predacons Rising (Animated)|Predacons Rising}}

Despite the massive destruction of the island, the Dinobots survived, though Grimlock and Swoop would kick out Snarl when he decided to become the pet of [[Scrapper (Animated)|Scrapper]], who had become a castaway on the island. {{storylink|Human Error, Part II}}

===Titan ''Animated'' comic===
{{note|The other Dinobots talked in their first strip appearance. In their third appearance, as a gag, Grimlock acts like they're constantly talking and just won't let poor Snarl do it; meanwhile, Swoop just won't talk because he's being stroppy.}}

After [[Starscream (Animated)|Starscream]] and his clones attempted to steal the Autobots' base, Sari (somehow) escaped to Dinobot Island, hoping to convince Grimlock and Co. to come to the mainland and deal with the Starscreams. Things seemed to take a turn for the worse as she stumbled upon a furious Grimlock during some heavy rain. Things worked out however, as it wasn't long before the Dinobots burst into the factory and summarily trounced the clones. Starscream thought better about fighting back, and when the Autobots were freed made his escape. Bumblebee was amazed the Dinobots had agreed to help...until Sari revealed they hated the rain and she'd told them they could stay at the base until the rain stopped. As Grimlock made himself comfortable, Ratchet relayed some sorry news: the weather forecast for the future was heavy rain, with chance of fire breathing squatters. {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 17|Dino-MIGHT!}}

Snarl and Swoop were later infected by a Rage virus, turning them homicidally violent; they turned on Grimlock and then on the Autobot rescue team that arrived to help, badly injuring both their leader and Ratchet before [[Afterburn]] could cure them. {{storylink|Animated Comic issue 2|Ratchet & Grimlock Are DEAD?}}

Later, Grimlock and Swoop got into a ''huge'' fight over a TV show, and Grimlock kicked Swoop out of the Dinobots. The flier went on to join the main Autobots, while Grimlock kept a suffering Snarl from talking. {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 23|Divebomb}}

===''The Cool'' comic===
[[File:TheCoolDinobotsGroup01.jpg|thumb|upright=1.1|left]]

When [[Soundwave (Animated)|Soundwave]] and [[Lugnut (Animated)|Lugnut]] attacked Dinobot Island, the Dinobots responded immediately to the threat, driving the Decepticons off. [[Optimus Prime (Animated)|Optimus Prime]] attempted to greet the Dinobots and thank them for their aid, but Grimlock responded simply by attacking Prime and demanding he leave as well. After a while, the two resolved their differences, the Dinobots promising to help the Autobots in time of battle, and parted as friends. {{storylink|The Cool Episode 3}}
