Reality inside Reality, that's what '''Simultronic''' means to its users. A drugging sensation applied through wires that are to be attached to the head component, Simultronic is both a way for [[Transformer]]s to escape this [[Slag (slang)|slagging]] world and to seriously mess up their [[Processors|central processor]].

==Fiction==
===IDW Generation 1 comics===
[[The Circle]] had recently installed a simultronic machine per table to entertain the customers with. [[Fasttrack (IDW)|Fasttrack]] pointed them out to [[Blurr (G1)|Blurr]], but the latter was unimpressed, believing no one in their right mind could turn to such material when life was so great.

Irony kicked in a short time later, when Blurr returned to The Circle to drink away the end of his career. Picking a lone table to feel bad at, he considered hooking himself up to the simultronic device after all. Luckily for him, the [[Starscream (G1)|local Decepticon scout]] approached and told him only losers do drugs, offering the champion a spot amongst [[Decepticon|others of his kind]]. {{storylink|Spotlight: Blurr}}

Darkstream

'''Darkstream''' excels where many of the Decepticons top aces struggle: extreme low altitude combat. He likes nothing more than to trick his opponents into deadly crashes. His [[Mini-Con]] partner [[Razorbeam]] just makes him all the better at it.

*'''Darkstream with Razorbeam''' (Commander Class, 2010)

: Part of a future wave of ''Power Core Combiners'' Commander Class figures, Darkstream is a [[redeco]] of [[Skyburst]] (without the drone-limbs), transforming into a Firefox MIG-31 fighter jet. He also has a third super-robot torso mode compatible with all ''Power Core Combiner'' drone-limbs. As his mold was originally created for a Power Core 5-pack, he lacks the chestplate [[Powerlinx]] port that would allow him to use a [[Mini-Con]] as chest armor. Despite this, he comes with the Mini-Con [[Razorbeam]], who can instead plug onto the Powerlinx port on the jet fuselage, which ends up on Darkstream's back in robot mode.

:''Bombshock is a [[Decepticon]] [[Commander (PCC)|Commander]] from ''[[Power Core Combiners]]''.''

Once a member of an elite Cybertronian military unit, '''Bombshock''' committed an act of betrayal that attracted the attention of the Decepticons. He's since been rewarded with the rank of Power Core Commander, and now a team of unstoppable [[Combaticon (PCC)|Combaticon]] drones is at his fingertips.

===''Power Core Combiners''===
*'''Commander Bombshock with Combaticons''' (Power Core Combiners 5-pack, 2010)
: Part of the first wave of ''Power Core Combiners'' 5-pack figures, Bombshock is a Scout-sized military truck who transforms into a robot. He can also swap heads and transform into a torso for his four Combaticon drones, or serve as a torso for any other Commander figure's Power Core drones. His armored car drone appears to homage G1 Swindle.

:Unfortunately, Bombshock and his drones have several design flaws and [[quality control]] issues. Bombshock suffers from the problem of the spring-loaded, automorphing drones being unable to provide solid, stable feet to balance the combined mode. Meanwhile, the folded-out hands on the arm drones do not lock into place, and thus "flop around" during play. In general the drones have a tendency to detach from Bombshock when they are moved.

: This mold was used to make [[Steelshot]].

==Notes==
* Bombshock's bio states that he was once a "member of the most elite unit in the Cybertronian military." Whether this was the [[Elite Guard]] or the [[Wreckers]] or some other elite military group is unknown. It might even be a reference to the [[Micromaster]] [[Military Patrol]], led by [[Bombshock (G1)|Generation 1 Bombshock]]!

Stakeout (PCC)

[[Image:PCC-toy_StakeoutProtectobots.jpg|thumb|right|300px|Fear not citizens! I'm here to rescue you with my terrifying assault vehicles!]]

Once upon a time, '''Stakeout''' was a lone wolf loose cannon, a rebel who acted against orders, determined to stop the Decepticons on his own and on his own terms. Undergoing the [[Power Core process]] has had a levening effect on Stakeout, and becoming a Commander has taught him some of the responsibilities that come with great power.

*'''Stakeout with Protectobots''' (Commander Class, 2010)

:Stakeout is a [[redeco]] of [[Smolder]], a Scout-sized robot who transforms into a white brush truck. He can swap between his normal head and a larger head so that he can also serve as a torso for his [[Protectobot (PCC)|Protectobots]] or any other Power Core Combiner drone-limbs. Stakeout's chestplate has a flip-up [[Mini-Con]] Powerlinx peg that allows him to use any Mini-Con as chest armor, though he doesn't come with any.
