If you have a fembot spider-former toy, it is most certainly one of '''Blackarachnia'''.

*'''Blackarachnia''' (Deluxe Class, 1996/1997)
**''Japanese ID number'': '''D-8'''
**''Accessories'': Launcher, 4 leg-missiles

:''[[Beast Wars: Transformers (toyline)|Beast Wars]]'' Blackarachnia's original toy is a [[redeco]] of the [[Tarantulas (BW)#Toys|Tarantulas]] mold, transforming into a rather generic-looking organic spider. It features a removable spring-loaded launcher hidden in its beast mode abdomen. It nominally fires the "grappling hook" attached to its abdomen by a string, but its front four beast mode legs can also be removed and used as ammunition. Like all first-year ''[[Beast Wars: Transformers (toyline)|Beast Wars]]'' Deluxes, the robot mode head has both a "robot" face and a [[mutant head|"mutant" face]]; Blackarachnia is always depicted in fiction using the "robot" one (or a rough approximation thereof).

[[File:BW-toy BlackarachniaTakara.jpg|upright=1.4|thumb|She might have an F-cup...or an E.]]
:The [[TakaraTomy|Takara]] release of the toy has numerous color differences from the [[Hasbro]] version, but they are of dubious merit as far as making her more "show-accurate" go. The bright green of the Hasbro version's forearms is replaced with dull silver, while the brighter purple is replaced with a darker, more desaturated purple. Her dark copper paint is replaced with a brighter gold. Her robot mode facemask is painted gold, which is closer to the show model... but her face beneath is black with gold eyes (instead of gold with black eyes), and she inexplicably gains a new painted-black forehead crest, where the show model has gold. Japanese catalogues showed a figure with a gold face and black eyes. It is unknown why this was changed for the released figure.

:This mold was later used to make the [[Tarantulas (BW)|"Beast Wars 10th Anniversary" version of Tarantulas]], and the ''[[#BW10J|Beast Wars Telemocha]]'' version of Blackarachnia. It was intended to be used to make [[#UnUni|a second ''Universe'' version of Blackarachnia]], but that toy set was canceled.

*'''Blackarachnia''' (Happy Meal promotion, 1998)
**''McNumber'': '''5'''

:Part of the second [[List of Transformers restaurant promotions|McDonald's]] ''Beast Wars'' Happy Meal pack-in, Blackarachnia's "[[Transmetal]]" form resembles some sort of dust mite more than a spider, though it does have a black widow-esque hour-glass shape on the abdomen. It has a ''very'' similar transformation to the earlier promotional figure [[Beetle]].

:Like the other two Transmetal Happy Meal figures, Blackarachnia has some metallic-sheened plastic intended to resemble the colored chromed finish of the retail ''Transmetals'' toys.

*'''Blackarachnia''' (Transmetal 2, 1999)
**''Japanese ID number'': '''C-48'''
**''Accessories'': Mandible grapnel-line

:The Transmetal 2 version of Blackarachnia transforms into a large, organic/mechanical, monstrous spider, featuring a [[Retractable string gimmick|grappling hook]], switching [[Insignia|faction symbols]] activated by [[#Notes|rotating her spark crystal around]], and a spring-loaded spin-kick action feature. She also has a half-assed "defense mode", bringing the chromed abdomen bits down to cover her chest. Like all larger Transmetal 2s, Blackarachnia has hints of an abandoned "transport" mode, mainly the free-spinning wheels and concealed rockets in the spider mode abdomen.

:This toy was initially hard to find at retail, as one of the toy's features, a piece of removable chest armor (no, really), was altered slightly, delaying later shipments.

:This mold was used to make the [[BotCon 2001]] [[exclusive]] [[Arcee (G1)/toys#BotCon2001|Arcee]].

*'''Blackarachnia''' (Deluxe, 2000)

:An early toy in the ''[[Beast Machines: Transformers (toyline)|Beast Machines]]'' line, Blackarachnia transforms into a [[technorganic]] spider. In spider mode, squeezing its pedipalps together raises its central fangs; they were spring-loaded to release and lower, respectively. In keeping with the early ''Beast Machines'' "articulated features" motif, her robot mode head has a multi-piece articulated brow, which can slide up to reveal two extra sets of eyes, as she does on the cartoon.

:This mold was later redecoed to make the [[#UniDx|''Universe'' version of Blackarachnia]], as well as [[Crystal Widow#Toys|Crystal Widow]].

*'''Blackarachnia''' (Happy Meal, 2000)
**''McNumber'': '''6'''

:As one of ''ten'' toys in the third Transformers McDonald's Happy Meal promotion, Blackarachnia is a super-simplified version of her retail toy, with a coloration closer to the [[Mainframe Entertainment|Mainframe]] CG model, though more shockingly pink rather than maroon. This toy is designed for the younger set, with softer plastic and no removable parts.

:She is the only [[Beast Era]] character to get two McDonald's Happy Meal toys.

*'''Blackarachnia''' (Deluxe Class, 2003)

:Part of the second wave of ''[[Transformers: Universe (2003 toyline)|Universe]]'' Deluxes, Blackarachnia returned as a [[Decepticon]] and as a redeco of [[#BMDx1|the original ''Beast Machines'' figure]]. However, her forearms were [[Misassembly|mistakenly swapped]], leaving her forearm "spikes" pointing up towards her biceps rather than down near her elbows. She received a Decepticon [[Insignia|faction symbol]] over her [[spark crystal]] as well.

:This mold (with the same swapped-forearms error) was used to make [[Crystal Widow]].

*'''Leatherhide Vs. Blackarachnia''' (Halloween Horrorcon value pack, <s>200?</s>)
**''Accessories'': Launcher, 4 leg-missiles

:In 2004, a group of test-shots made their way onto eBay, among them a [[redeco]] of the original ''Beast Wars'' Tarantulas/Blackarachnia mold in black with silver spider-legs and salmon-colored robot parts. Later, Hasbro's official website checklist featured listings for two ''[[Transformers: Universe (2003 toyline)|Universe]]'' "Halloween [[Horrorcon (Universe)|Horrorcon]] Value Packs" that were to be Wal-Mart [[exclusive]]s... which also likely explains why they were canceled. (Wal*Mart had taken a good half-dozen exclusives and released them more-or-less simultaneously, leading to a huge glut. A lot of other ''Transformers'' exclusives were canceled during the ''Universe'' era.) One of the sets was "[[Leatherhide (Universe)|Leatherhide]] Vs. Blackarachnia"... and thus, the mystery spider was confirmed, as the other test-shots in that group lined up with the name listings given in the sets.

*'''Blackwidow''' (Deluxe, [[November 18]], [[2004]])
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''BR-04'''

: Part of the Japanese Toys "R" Us-[[exclusive]] ''[[Beast Machines: Transformers (toyline)|Beast Wars Returns]]'' series, this toy is a redeco of the original ''Beast Machines'' Blackarachnia in a more show-like maroon coloration. Reportedly, this toy was limited to 3000 pieces, a full thousand ''less'' than the others in the original assortment. Since she was also the most changed from the US release in the initial batch of toys, this made her considerably harder to get.

*'''Blackwidow''' (2007)

**''Accessories:'' Launcher, 4 leg-missiles

:As part of the ''[[Transformers: Beast Wars Telemocha Series|Beast Wars Telemocha]]'' line, the [[#Dx1|original Deluxe Class Blackarachnia toy]] was ''extensively'' redecoed with a ridiculous number of gold [[paint operation]]s, making her closer to [[Show-accuracy|show-accurate]] in coloration than the other versions of the mold, but still not quite there. (Her shoulders are silver in the show.) All of the [[gimmick]]s of the original toy were retained, though her alternate head didn't receive any paint that wasn't intended to make her nominal head look more show-accurate.

:She came with a DVD containing "The Assassin Virus", the Japanese dubbing of ''Beast Wars'' episode 10, "[[Gorilla Warfare]]".

*'''Blackwidow''' (Binaltech, unreleased)
**''Japanese ID number'': '''BT16'''
**''Accessories'': Engine-rifle, roof-shield

:In 2005, the sculpt used for ''[[Transformers: Alternators|Alternators]]'' [[Decepticharge#Toys|Decepticharge]] was presented as an upcoming release for the Japanese ''Binaltech'' line. Takara decided to give the toy an entirely new deco, as the Hasbro toy's deco didn't appeal to their ideal of "real-life accuracy". In robot mode, the toy was given a color scheme based on Transmetal 2 Blackarachnia, with the toy's name being changed to "Blackwidow", Takara's name for the character. Though a [[bio]] and story chapter were written to accommodate it into the ''Binaltech'' fiction, and photoshopped images released through an online retailer revealed the intended color scheme, Takara ultimately decided to cancel the toy altogether, as they were fearing that another redeco (in addition to the then upcoming ''Binaltech Asterisk'' toys) would be too repetitive. Plans to release this toy as part of a different line were never picked up again. A prototype of Blackwidow was later featured in an exhibit at Transformers Expo in 2014.<ref name="tfexpo1">[http://www.tfw2005.com/transformers-news/conventions-15/tf-expo-pics-masterpiece-star-saber-in-color-and-more-180923/ "TF Expo Pics - Masterpiece Star Saber In Color and More!"] at TFW2005.</ref><ref name="tfexpo2">[http://www.tfw2005.com/transformers-news/conventions-15/tf-expo-pics-part-2-g1-prototypes-movie-props-and-more-masterpiece-180925/ "TF Expo Pics Part 2 - G1 Prototypes, Movie Props, and More Masterpiece!"] at TFW2005.</ref><ref name="tfexpo3">[http://www.tfw2005.com/transformers-news/conventions-15/tf-expo-pics-part-4-prototypes-and-figure-displays-from-diaclone-g1-g2-beast-wars-180933/ "TF Expo Pics Part 4 - Prototypes and Figure Displays from Diaclone, G1, G2, Beast Wars"] at TFW2005.</ref>

:This sculpt was ultimately released in Japan as part of an unexpected ''Binaltech'' continuation, this time as [[Arcee (G1)/toys#Binaltech|Arcee]]. The original version of the mold was used to make ''Alternators'' [[Windcharger (G1)#Alternators|Windcharger]] and ''Binaltech'' [[Overdrive#Binaltech|Overdrive]]. It was also planned to become a new toy of the [[Paradron Medic#Binaltech|Paradron Medic]], but that also got canceled.

**''Accessories'': Logo brick, scoped pistol

: Part of the sixth assortment of [[blindpacking|blind-bagged]] ''[[Kre-O]]'' [[Micro-Changer]]s, Blackarachnia is a [[Kreon]] mini-figure that can be rebuilt into a (four-legged) black widow spider. She sports [[Ironhide (Kre-O)|Ironhide's]] helmet.

:Unlike prior Micro-Changer assortments, this series does not have any sort identification code for the bags' actual contents, meaning you'd best be good at the feel-though-the-bag method.

:This assortment was originally slated to be a [[Toys"R"Us|ToysЯUs]] [[exclusive]], but US stores dropped the line before its release. It was still available in Canada, Australia, and Hasbro Asia's markets. In 2015, the Collection appeared in US Dollar Tree stores, with a price tag of a whopping $1 a pop. They didn't last long.

*'''Blackarachnia''' (Deluxe Class, 2008)

**''Accessories'': Grapnel-hook
{{note|''Animated'' [[Blackarachnia (Animated)#Toys|Blackarachnia]] was [[Repurposing|repurposed]] as the original Blackarachnia in the [[2005 IDW continuity]].}}

:''[[Transformers Animated (toyline)|Animated]]'' Blackarachnia transforms into a mechanical spider with some organic aesthetic. Many of her pointier parts are [[For safety reasons|molded in softer plastic]] to keep unfortunate children from putting their eyes out. She comes with a [http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/grapnel grapnel] [[Retractable string gimmick|hook accessory]]. This is spring-loaded, with a jointed claw at the end of it. Pressing a button causes it to retract along the string. It may be mounted under her abdomen in spider mode or on her back in robot mode, via two different sets of pegs. There is also a peg hole in each wrist, for [[Spider-Man|web-slinging]] action.

:The spider's head is mis-transformed in the package, making the first step of her instructions initially confusing. Furthermore, the pedipalps will easily come off if manipulated too much, and her transformation requires that they be turned around completely. Because of this, they will often fall off ... over and over and ''over''...

**''ID number:'' '''LG17'''
:''[[Transformers Legends (franchise)|Legends]]'' Blackwidow is a retool of ''[[Transformers Animated (toyline)|Animated]]'' [[Blackarachnia (Animated)#Animated|Blackarachnia]]. The tooling changes include a new head, a new chest/spider eye cluster, and new, larger pedipalps that form her breastplate in robot mode...albeit made of translucent plastic. (Her pedipalps resemble the kind found on ''male'' spiders, incidentally. Oh dear.) Her official robot mode transformation leaves her robot arms half-transformed, with the spider leg tips unrotated, to more closely resemble the original Blackarachnia's claw-arms.

:Because her pedipalps are no longer filling in her stomach area, she now has a tiny, ''tiny'' waist. Considerably more annoying is that her torso is misassembled such that pushing up her chest/spider eye cluster into the correct position for robot mode (and thus avoiding her having a gaping hole in her chest) is considerably more difficult than it should be.

:First shown in grayscale prototype form at Winter Wonder Festival 2019, this ''[[The Transformers: Masterpiece|Masterpiece]]'' Blackwidow is a brand new animation-accurate mold, depicting her original, pre-Transmetal beast form. She transforms into a show-accurate black widow spider and features multiple accessories, including her trademark anchor missile launcher (which converts into a panel for the rear of her spider mode), a missile for the projectile and an alternate version with a cord, 2 faces for robot mode, a visor and cable, a giant energon spider web and adapters to attach her in both modes. Blackwidow's engineering means that she lacks any major traces of unwanted kibble, and for the pleasure of display owners is incredibly posable. She is also one of the smaller ''Masterpiece'' figures, and is smaller than her fellow ''Beast Wars'' castmates. In a slightly intimate display of design her breasts have some ''very faint protrusions''.

:Care should be taken especially when handling the spider legs of the figure as the tips are known to chip off.

:Per the brand unification of TakaraTomy and Hasbro, Blackwidow will be directly released with no changes by [[Hasbro Pulse]] in the United States and Canada.

==Notes==
[[File:BWBlackarachniaCardArt.jpg|upright=1.1|thumb|Dirty girls, make some noise. Move that ass for dirty boys.]]
*Blackarachnia's original ''Beast Wars'' card art has her wearing a spike-studded collar... while her chest seems to be leopard-spotted. Kinky.
*The [[:File:Blackarachniahappymeal.jpg|artwork]] advertising the Transmetal Blackarachnia toy on Happy Meal Bags was rendered with the toy transformed incorrectly. Her beast mode head isn't flipped down, leaving her organic-looking robot mode chest exposed.
*Even though Transmetal 2 Blackarachnia's toy has a unique faction-switching [[spark crystal]], the feature doesn't make sense in a fictional context. By that point in the ''Beast Wars'' television series, the Transmetal Driver had destroyed her Predacon [[shell program]], making her fully Maximal. (Though, to be fair, it ''had'' happened mere moments previously.)

[[File:RBA Whirl.jpg|thumb|upright=1.67|"He said...no? Well. There's only one thing to do -- look him in the eye, nod politely, and KILL THE LIVING CRAP OUT OF HIM!"]]

'''Whirl''' aspires to be a [[Rescue Bot]] police officer like [[Chase (RB)|Chase]], though while her senior has a no-nonsense approach, Whirl is all optimism and heavily into [[Earth]] culture like fellow copter-bot [[Blades (RB)|Blades]]. Her enthusiasm for the work can be overwhelming, and her sense of judgement may lead to some simply ''ridiculous'' theories and quotes, giving her fellow recruits pause; more often than not she's proven right, though it may take some time for her friends to follow her advice.

[[File:RecruitsI Whirl welcomes Hot Shot.jpg|thumb|left|280px|"Come on iiiin, you are missing the fuun!"]]
Whirl was among those selected to be a recruit at the [[Rescue Bot Training Center]] on [[Earth]]. She was first to enthusiastically greet [[Hot Shot (Prime)|Hot Shot]] when he arrived. She and the rest of the team subsequently took part in a rescue drill overseen by [[Heatwave (RB)|Heatwave]] but were unsuccessful in putting out a house fire thanks to the newcomer. {{storylink|Recruits Part I}} Whirl and [[Hoist (RB)|Hoist]] tried unsuccessfully to find Hot Shot when it looked like he'd given up, but he later returned with two new alternate modes. The team went on to successfully carry out a cave rescue exercise. {{storylink|Recruits Part II}} When [[Blades (RB)|Blades]] was summoned to the academy to help Hot Shot perfect his flying, Whirl enthusiastically volunteered to take part as well, and later took part in a rescue in [[Griffin Rock]] during which Hot Shot put the lessons into practice. {{storylink|The Secret of Flight}}

Following a rescue in [[Griffin Rock]], the recruits persuaded Hoist to make new rescue tools for them all. Whirl got new rotors on her arms, and though the initial test went horribly wrong, she and the other recruits enlisted the help of Boulder, and Hoist eventually perfected the tools. {{storylink|If at First...}} After Hot Shot badly damaged [[Tough Luck Chuck]] and was assigned the task of looking after the robot, he tried to foist the duty onto Whirl, who was trying to do some rescue research, only for Chuck to slip past them. They attempted to hunt him down, and eventually pursued him to [[Milford]]. {{storylink|Tough Luck Chuck (episode)|Tough Luck Chuck}} Whirl enthusiastically memorised all of the police codes Chase was teaching the recruits, and as a result, when the other recruits persuaded Chase to let them try a rescue and instead got stuck in the snow, Whirl was able to rescue them. {{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:MissionInaudible Whirl copter mode.jpg|thumb|right|300px|"I was just on an important mission to save my friends and AREN'T YOU SUPPOSED TO BE DOING THE SAME THING?!"]]
Whirl and the other recruits were bugged when [[Wedge (RBA)|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}} The recruits had to contend with a runaway rock sculpture of Hot Shot's head when he decided to carve it into a mountain alongside the likenesses of the Rescue Bots. {{storylink|Mount Botmore}} When Hoist was put in charge of a rescue exercise, Whirl was the only one who actually followed any of his orders, and ended up dangling over a chasm with Hot Shot, Wedge and [[Medix (RB)|Medix]] dangling from her until Hoist successfully rescued them. {{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}}

[[File:RescuePromo Whirl filmmaker.jpg|thumb|left|270px|"Put a little bomb in the hot-ass damsel, blow stuff up and make people die-"]]
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}} Whirl took over filming a recruitment video for the training center, but all the footage she got was terrible and it wasn't until she told the other recruits that they were able to pitch in and help her make a workable video. {{storylink|Rescue Promo}} After a botched rescue had the recruits blaming each other, Heatwave assigned them to cleaning duties. Hot Shot sneaked out to do a rescue, and as a result, the rest of the recruits had to go help him when he hit trouble. {{storylink|Blame Game}} Whirl 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}}

The recruits got to try out some [[TX3000]]s on loan to the rescue center, and even used them during an actual rescue. {{storylink|The TX3000}} They had to round up a lost flock of sheep, but were hampered by Hoist malfunctioning. {{storylink|Little Bot Peep}} When [[Lad Pioneer|Teen Pioneer]] [[Wes]] visited the base and Wedge was reluctant to spend time with the boy due to low self-confidence, Whirl pointed out that Wedge was Wes's favorite Rescue Bot. {{Storylink|Driving a Wedge}} Boulder accompanied the recruits to the planet [[Parvus]] where they rescued the last surviving [[Galax]]. {{storylink|The Big, Small Rescue}}

[[File:RBA-Fright At The Museum-Shades.jpg|thumb|right|350px|"Real badasses eat chocolate chip cookies, I'ma gonna get that tattooed across my back in Old English font."]]
When Hot Shot and Wedge decided to compete over who was qualified to get into the [[Heroes of Cybertron (cards)|Heroes of Cybertron]] card game, Medix and Whirl acted as commentators for the building and Cube challenges they undertook. {{storylink|Battle of the Bots}} While trying to round up a small rock alien that had gotten loose in the academy, Whirl temporarily got trapped in her locker. {{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}} Whirl took part in rescuing [[Dr Hart]] from a runaway iceberg. {{storylink|Lucky Ducky}}

Inspired by Blades, Whirl took it upon herself to get into cheerleading. Though the other recruits weren't as enthused, they soon discovered that the skills they were learning were helpful during rescues, and began practicing in earnest. {{storylink|Go Team, Go!}} When Boulder assigned the recruits smartphones so they could familiarize themselves with the devices, they began neglecting their lessons and chores, until they realized it was causing problems with their rescues. {{storylink|Screen Time}} During a trip to a museum in Milford, Whirl naturally assumed they'd encounter a heist in progress, and turned out to be right. Her policing skills resulted in her catching a thief in the act, and she was able to ferry him to the Griffin Rock jail. {{storylink|Fright at the Museum}}

When their teachers went missing on a space mission, the recruits worked together to pilot the ''Sigma'' and mount a rescue. {{storylink|Space Case (episode)|Space Case}} Boulder had the recruits cleaning up a park, though as Whirl spent the whole time chasing a rogue plastic bag, she didn't get much trash. The same thing happened during the follow up mission at the bottom of the sea, though Whirl did accidentally make herself look like a mermaid using seaweed. She and the other recruits later had to rescue Medix from a shark. {{storylink|All at Sea}} With the teachers on another off-planet mission, the recruits were left to tidy up the Academy, and had to deal with Hoist's [[Scrub-A-Dubber]] when it went rogue. {{storylink|All Washed Up}}

Heatwave suggested that the bored students try their hands at being teachers for the day. None of the recruits seemed to do well, with Whirl's lecture on transforming boring Heatwave and Cody, but their teachers later put what they'd learned to use during a real rescue. {{storylink|Who's Teaching Who?}} An attempt to rescue a balloon from a tree turned into a major disaster when the recruits went in without a plan. {{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}} and yet another sim turned into chaos thanks to Hot Shot combining it with his game, forcing the recruits to deal with giant hedgehogs. {{storylink|Hack Attack}}

Whirl 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}} Whirl learned that the recruits were getting a new teacher, but was too excited to find out who. It turned out to be [[Grimlock (RID 2015)|Grimlock]]! {{storylink|Tyrannosaurus Wrecked}} Grimlock took Whirl and the others on a field trip to [[Wayward Island|Dino Island]]. After the GroundBridge was damaged, Whirl had to tow Grimlock back to the mainland. {{storylink|Dino Hard}} Assigned a stealth mission by Chase, Whirl and Hoist managed to find Tough Luck Chuck hiding in a barn, but were caught by Chase after Whirl accidentally demolished the structure. {{storylink|Buddy Cop}}

The recruits had to rescue some penguins from an island, and Whirl came up with the idea of building a raft after their ability to transform was disabled by an electrical storm. {{storylink|Escape from Penguin Island}} Whirl was surprised to learn Hoist had cheated during a search and rescue test that led to the recruits taking part in an Old West simulation. {{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 and ended up having to deal with a house fire. {{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}} Whirl 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 [[Herbu]], as it was the code needed for the [[Virtual Sonic Fence]] Hoist needed to use to stop the [[karkinoid 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}}

Whirl 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}} After Whirl failed to master a tricky maneuver, Blades told her about a Rescue Bot guru who had once helped him. Whirl set out to find the guru, unaware that Blades had made the story up, and along the way made a series of rescues. The rescues gave her the skills to master the maneuver, which she was later able to use to rescue her fellow recruits. {{storylink|Whirl's Wise-Bot Quest}}

Hot Shot's careless actions in ejecting his junk into space had Whirl and the others following his lead, resulting an a huge junk meteor that threatened the satellite they were trying to repair. {{Storylink|Flying Hunk-A-Junk}} A 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}} Whirl joined the hunt for some dogs when Hoist's new comms system turned out to annoy animals. {{storylink|Milford Goes To The Dogs}} The recruits struggled to complete a rescue sim until Hot Shot realized they'd been trying to stop the disaster instead of saving the people. {{storylink|The Ice Wave}}

As graduation drew closer, the recruits successful competed against their teachers in a relay race carrying a pretend rescue victim. Whirl and the others were surprised and saddened when Hot Shot opted to abandon his Rescue Bot training and return to Cybertron to compete in the Cube finals. {{storylink|Best Bots Forever Part 1}} The remaining recruits decided to tune in to the final using the [[space bridge]] to boost the holo-emitter screen. Unfortunately this led to the creation of a slowly growing energon bubble which engulfed the academy. It was only when Hot Shot returned that the recruits were able to burst the bubble. The recruits were able to graduate from year one of their learning. {{storylink|Best Bots Forever Part 2}}

[[File:RecruitsI Whirl welcomes Hot Shot.jpg|thumb|left|280px|"Come on iiiin, you are missing the fuun!"]]
Whirl was among those selected to be a recruit at the [[Rescue Bot Training Center]] on [[Earth]]. She was first to enthusiastically greet [[Hot Shot (Prime)|Hot Shot]] when he arrived. She and the rest of the team subsequently took part in a rescue drill overseen by [[Heatwave (RB)|Heatwave]] but were unsuccessful in putting out a house fire thanks to the newcomer. {{storylink|Recruits Part I}} Whirl and [[Hoist (RB)|Hoist]] tried unsuccessfully to find Hot Shot when it looked like he'd given up, but he later returned with two new alternate modes. The team went on to successfully carry out a cave rescue exercise. {{storylink|Recruits Part II}} When [[Blades (RB)|Blades]] was summoned to the academy to help Hot Shot perfect his flying, Whirl enthusiastically volunteered to take part as well, and later took part in a rescue in [[Griffin Rock]] during which Hot Shot put the lessons into practice. {{storylink|The Secret of Flight}}

Following a rescue in [[Griffin Rock]], the recruits persuaded Hoist to make new rescue tools for them all. Whirl got new rotors on her arms, and though the initial test went horribly wrong, she and the other recruits enlisted the help of Boulder, and Hoist eventually perfected the tools. {{storylink|If at First...}} After Hot Shot badly damaged [[Tough Luck Chuck]] and was assigned the task of looking after the robot, he tried to foist the duty onto Whirl, who was trying to do some rescue research, only for Chuck to slip past them. They attempted to hunt him down, and eventually pursued him to [[Milford]]. {{storylink|Tough Luck Chuck (episode)|Tough Luck Chuck}} Whirl enthusiastically memorised all of the police codes Chase was teaching the recruits, and as a result, when the other recruits persuaded Chase to let them try a rescue and instead got stuck in the snow, Whirl was able to rescue them. {{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:MissionInaudible Whirl copter mode.jpg|thumb|right|300px|"I was just on an important mission to save my friends and AREN'T YOU SUPPOSED TO BE DOING THE SAME THING?!"]]
Whirl and the other recruits were bugged when [[Wedge (RBA)|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}} The recruits had to contend with a runaway rock sculpture of Hot Shot's head when he decided to carve it into a mountain alongside the likenesses of the Rescue Bots. {{storylink|Mount Botmore}} When Hoist was put in charge of a rescue exercise, Whirl was the only one who actually followed any of his orders, and ended up dangling over a chasm with Hot Shot, Wedge and [[Medix (RB)|Medix]] dangling from her until Hoist successfully rescued them. {{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}} Whirl took over filming a recruitment video for the training center, but all the footage she got was terrible and it wasn't until she told the other recruits that they were able to pitch in and help her make a workable video. {{storylink|Rescue Promo}} After a botched rescue had the recruits blaming each other, Heatwave assigned them to cleaning duties. Hot Shot sneaked out to do a rescue, and as a result, the rest of the recruits had to go help him when he hit trouble. {{storylink|Blame Game}} Whirl 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}}

The recruits got to try out some [[TX3000]]s on loan to the rescue center, and even used them during an actual rescue. {{storylink|The TX3000}} They had to round up a lost flock of sheep, but were hampered by Hoist malfunctioning. {{storylink|Little Bot Peep}} When [[Lad Pioneer|Teen Pioneer]] [[Wes]] visited the base and Wedge was reluctant to spend time with the boy due to low self-confidence, Whirl pointed out that Wedge was Wes's favorite Rescue Bot. {{Storylink|Driving a Wedge}} Boulder accompanied the recruits to the planet [[Parvus]] where they rescued the last surviving [[Galax]]. {{storylink|The Big, Small Rescue}}

[[File:RBA-Fright At The Museum-Shades.jpg|thumb|right|350px|"Real badasses eat chocolate chip cookies, I'ma gonna get that tattooed across my back in Old English font."]]
When Hot Shot and Wedge decided to compete over who was qualified to get into the [[Heroes of Cybertron (cards)|Heroes of Cybertron]] card game, Medix and Whirl acted as commentators for the building and Cube challenges they undertook. {{storylink|Battle of the Bots}} While trying to round up a small rock alien that had gotten loose in the academy, Whirl temporarily got trapped in her locker. {{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}} Whirl took part in rescuing [[Dr Hart]] from a runaway iceberg. {{storylink|Lucky Ducky}}

Inspired by Blades, Whirl took it upon herself to get into cheerleading. Though the other recruits weren't as enthused, they soon discovered that the skills they were learning were helpful during rescues, and began practicing in earnest. {{storylink|Go Team, Go!}} When Boulder assigned the recruits smartphones so they could familiarize themselves with the devices, they began neglecting their lessons and chores, until they realized it was causing problems with their rescues. {{storylink|Screen Time}} During a trip to a museum in Milford, Whirl naturally assumed they'd encounter a heist in progress, and turned out to be right. Her policing skills resulted in her catching a thief in the act, and she was able to ferry him to the Griffin Rock jail. {{storylink|Fright at the Museum}}

When their teachers went missing on a space mission, the recruits worked together to pilot the ''Sigma'' and mount a rescue. {{storylink|Space Case (episode)|Space Case}} Boulder had the recruits cleaning up a park, though as Whirl spent the whole time chasing a rogue plastic bag, she didn't get much trash. The same thing happened during the follow up mission at the bottom of the sea, though Whirl did accidentally make herself look like a mermaid using seaweed. She and the other recruits later had to rescue Medix from a shark. {{storylink|All at Sea}} With the teachers on another off-planet mission, the recruits were left to tidy up the Academy, and had to deal with Hoist's [[Scrub-A-Dubber]] when it went rogue. {{storylink|All Washed Up}}

Heatwave suggested that the bored students try their hands at being teachers for the day.

Whirl 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}} Whirl learned that the recruits were getting a new teacher, but was too excited to find out who. It turned out to be [[Grimlock (RID 2015)|Grimlock]]! {{storylink|Tyrannosaurus Wrecked}} Grimlock took Whirl and the others on a field trip to [[Wayward Island|Dino Island]].

The recruits got to try out some [[TX3000]]s on loan to the rescue center, and even used them during an actual rescue. {{storylink|The TX3000}} They had to round up a lost flock of sheep, but were hampered by Hoist malfunctioning. {{storylink|Little Bot Peep}} When [[Lad Pioneer|Teen Pioneer]] [[Wes]] visited the base and Wedge was reluctant to spend time with the boy due to low self-confidence, Whirl pointed out that Wedge was Wes's favorite Rescue Bot. {{Storylink|Driving a Wedge}} Boulder accompanied the recruits to the planet [[Parvus]] where they rescued the last surviving [[Galax]]. {{storylink|The Big, Small Rescue}}

[[File:RBA-Fright At The Museum-Shades.jpg|thumb|right|350px|"Real badasses eat chocolate chip cookies, I'ma gonna get that tattooed across my back in Old English font."]]
When Hot Shot and Wedge decided to compete over who was qualified to get into the [[Heroes of Cybertron (cards)|Heroes of Cybertron]] card game, Medix and Whirl acted as commentators for the building and Cube challenges they undertook. {{storylink|Battle of the Bots}} While trying to round up a small rock alien that had gotten loose in the academy, Whirl temporarily got trapped in her locker. {{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}} Whirl took part in rescuing [[Dr Hart]] from a runaway iceberg. {{storylink|Lucky Ducky}}

Inspired by Blades, Whirl took it upon herself to get into cheerleading. Though the other recruits weren't as enthused, they soon discovered that the skills they were learning were helpful during rescues, and began practicing in earnest. {{storylink|Go Team, Go!}} When Boulder assigned the recruits smartphones so they could familiarize themselves with the devices, they began neglecting their lessons and chores, until they realized it was causing problems with their rescues. {{storylink|Screen Time}} During a trip to a museum in Milford, Whirl naturally assumed they'd encounter a heist in progress, and turned out to be right. Her policing skills resulted in her catching a thief in the act, and she was able to ferry him to the Griffin Rock jail. {{storylink|Fright at the Museum}}

*'''Whirl the Flight-Bot''' (2019)

: Whirl's first toy is sized similarly to the previous Megabots line, at about 11 inches tall, transforming into a helicopter in a couple of "Easy 2 Do Conversion" steps. In either bot or vehicle mode, pressing a button on her rotor causes it to spin. She comes packaged in robot mode, and helpfully, a cutout in the package allows this gimmick to be tried in-store without removing her from the package. Her engineering and transformation pattern are based on the [[Blades (RB)#RescanCopter|Rescan helicopter version of Blades]].

:''Crosshairs is an [[Autobot]] from the [[Transformers: Age of Extinction (franchise)|Age of Extinction]] portion of the [[live-action film series]] [[continuity family]].''

[[File:TLKCrosshairsRenderPackageArt.jpg|upright=1.8|thumb|250px|Your membership to the Continental has been, by thine own hand, revoked.]]
When the chips are down, '''Crosshairs''' is the kind of guy you'd want on your team. Or you would, if it wasn't for the fact that he's self-loving and more than a bit of a jerk. Crosshairs is a paratrooper who's a mouthful of snark with a bad attitude. He's got little respect for [[Optimus Prime (Movie)|Optimus Prime]], harboring a desire to just be on his own or otherwise be in charge himself. Despite these vices, Crosshairs is still a crack shot who always hits the ground running and makes mincemeat out of Decepticons with his firearms before they even know what hit them. And if the chips are ''really'' down, he'll come through in the end for his fellow Autobots.

===Movies===
{{note|The five movies are the primary component of the live-action movie continuity family. Their events should be taken as canon for all other pieces of fiction listed below, unless otherwise specified.}}
====''Age of Extinction'' film====
{{voiceactor|[[John DiMaggio]] (English), [[Hideaki Tezuka]] (Japanese)|[[Bai Tao]] (Chinese), [[Raul Solo]] (Latin American Spanish), [[Marco Kröger]] (German), [[Serge Biavan]] (European French), [[Louis-Philippe Dandenault]] (Canadian French)}}

Crosshairs was among the Autobots who went into hiding on Earth when [[Harold Attinger]]'s [[Cemetery Wind]] began hunting down the Autobots. Crosshairs had joined up with [[Drift (AOE)|Drift]], [[Hound (Movie)|Hound]], and [[Bumblebee (Movie)|Bumblebee]], and the group remained hidden until [[Optimus Prime (Movie)|Optimus Prime]] returned to them. Crosshairs expressed joy and faith when their leader returned, saying he always believed he would, but still grumbled about the treatment of the Autobots at the hands of the humans. Crosshairs, along with Hound, immediately tried to kill [[Cade Yeager]], [[Tessa Yeager]], and [[Shane Dyson]], but Optimus restrained him, explaining their part in helping protect him from Attinger. That night, Crosshairs made known his desire to strike out on his own after Drift and Bumblebee started fighting, but fell in under Optimus as the gravity of their situation began to sink in. Crosshairs learned of [[Leadfoot (DOTM)|Leadfoot's]] fate, and joined in the plan for Cade and Shane to infiltrate KSI.

[[Image:AOE-CrosshairsShootingUpKSI.jpg|left|thumb|250px|Crosshairs desperately tries to restore order during your typical [[Black Friday (event)|Black Friday]].]]
However, when Cade discovered [[Ratchet (Movie)|Ratchet's]] deactivated head being melted down, Optimus furiously rallied the Autobots into action. Crosshairs gleefully joined in the shooting up of KSI, and was prepared to kill [[Joshua Joyce]], but after a demoralizing speech from the human, Optimus ordered a retreat. The Autobots took to the road with their human allies, and were pursued by [[Megatron (Movie)|Galvatron]] and [[Stinger (AOE)|Stinger]]. Crosshairs was absent for the ensuing battle against Galvatron, but Optimus and Tessa were captured by [[Lockdown (ROTF)|Lockdown]].

[[Image:AOECrosshairs.jpg|right|250px|thumb|See? Once again our explosive personality wins the day!]]
The group made for [[Chicago]], where they snuck aboard Lockdown's vessel. Crosshairs initially refused to take part in the rescue mission, asking what was in it for him, but after some aggressive negotiation from Hound, joined in the mission. Crosshairs helped sabotage some of the ship, causing the anchors to release, which the humans used to escape after rescuing Tessa. He warned Hound against messing with alien creatures on the ship, to no avail. They soon found the captured Optimus, who instructed them to detach the part of Lockdown's vessel they were on for their own personal use. Crosshairs soon commandeered an [[Orbital Assault Carrier]], using it to pick up Bumblebee and the Humans. He flew it through the skies of Chicago, fleeing Lockdown's minions until deciding to enter the fray personally, but not before instructing Cade and Shane on how to use the OAC's weaponry. Crosshairs took on many of Lockdown's [[Shadow Raider|henchmen]] upon para-trooping into the skies, and later exited the battle and regrouped with the others.

[[Image:AOE-CrosshairsAndDriftLetThemFight.jpg|left|250px|thumb|Believes in [[Vogel|molemen]] but doesn't believe his boss can take Grimlock.]]
Crosshairs was all too happy to leave Earth when Optimus decided they would leave permanently. He remained aboard the ship stolen from Lockdown with Drift and Optimus, but unfortunately their ride off-planet was shot down. Crashing in a nearby valley, Crosshairs decided he'd had enough of being the "underdog" and said the humans deserved what was coming for them before asking Optimus what their next move would be. Crosshairs was both astonished and annoyed that Optimus recruited the aid of the [[Dinobot (AOE)|Dinobots]], and retreated to the sidelines while Optimus beat some authority into [[Grimlock (AOE)|Grimlock]]. Upon seeing Grimlock's massive dinosaur mode, he backed away in fear. The Dinobots joined up with the Autobots once Optimus "coerced" Grimlock, and Crosshairs mounted [[Scorn]], though not without a few more grumbles about Optimus' exceptional motivational skills. Crosshairs took on many of the [[KSI Sentry|KSI]] [[KSI Boss|Transformers]] with Scorn, and they later helped escort the Seed to safety. Lockdown's intervention threw things astray, but the battle saw the Autobots victorious. Crosshairs bid farewell to Scorn, who he had nicknamed "Spike" after the battle, and told his new friend that he'd ride with him anytime. When Optimus departed into space on his own, he ordered Crosshairs and the other remaining Autobots to protect the Yeagers from harm.

====''The Last Knight'' film====
{{voiceactor|[[John DiMaggio]] (English)|[[Bai Tao]] (Chinese), [[Serge Biavan]] (European French), [[Louis-Philippe Dandenault]] (Canadian French)}}
[[File:TLKCrosshairsAndBee.jpg|right|upright=1.6|thumb|The franchise's fate lies directly on your [[Bumblebee (film)|spin-off's]] shoulders. No pressure.]]
Years after Optimus had left Earth, Crosshairs had taken refuge at Cade's [[Junkyard (TLK)|junkyard]] with the other Autobots. He occupied his time by flying around on a small fighter craft and continued to boast his desire to be leader, feeling the Autobots were getting soft hiding in the junkyard. When Cade, Hound and Bumblebee returned from an altercation with [[Transformers Reaction Force|TRF]], he proclaimed a "leader" like himself would have been far more useful than Bee. The younger bot did not take to kindly to the remark and after Crosshairs declared that Bee would never be Optimus, the argument turned physical as they began to wrestle fiercely. Crosshairs endured a visit from [[Daytrader]] and was later present, and solemn as Cade called his absent [[Tessa Yeager|daughter]]. The following morning, Crosshairs rang the morning bell for the junkyard as he sarcastically welcomed apparently another boring day.

[[File:TLK Cogman beats Crosshairs.jpg|thumb|left|upright=1.6|He cracked me in the finger. Why? Why did have to crack me in the finger?]]
Crosshairs soon found they were in for a decidedly non-boring day when the Decepticons and TRF discovered where they were hiding. He and the others rolled out to a nearby town where a trap had been set. Upon arrival, Drift discovered a TRF tracking device on Bumblebee, and Crosshairs scolded the immature young bot for leading their enemies right to them. During the battle, he and Drift teamed up against the much larger [[Onslaught (ROTF)|Onslaught]], with him blasting their enemy in the chest before Drift decapitated him. Crosshairs, Bumblebee, Drift, and Grimlock then fended off the remaining Decepticons, and he mocked the retreating "chickens" as they fled. He soon shot down the remainder of the TRF drones and attempted to squish the "cockroach"/"C-3PO Ripoff" [[Cogman]], who was harassing Cade. Instead, the surprisingly strong [[Headmaster (technology)|Headmaster]] grabbed his hand and twisted one of his fingers sideways, causing him to collapse in pain. When Cade and Bee chose to go to England with Cogman, Crosshairs quickly declared himself to be in charge, but that did not entail him telling any bedtime stories to [[Izabella]].

[[File:TLKLoveThatGuy.jpg|right|upright=1.6|thumb|'''Crosshairs''': He's been gone since 2014. Should we tell him about poor Carrie Fisher? '''Hound''': Dude, don't be a downer, he just got back!]]
Later, when Cybertron arrived at Earth, he and the other Autobots were quite happy to see Lockdown's old ship delivered to them by [[Daytrader]]. They arrived at [[Stonehenge]] and reunited with the returned Optimus, who rallied them, the humans and the [[Guardian Knight]]s to protect Earth. As Optimus flew off to lead the charge, Crosshairs declared his admiration for his leader, whose speeches always gave him goosebumps. En-route to Cybertron, he and the other Autobots were unimpressed with the intimating knights. In the final battle, he flew an Orbital Assault Carrier and engaged the airborne Decepticons. He managed to avoid being shot down by [[Infernocus]] and provided cover fire as Optimus and the other Autobots rushed the control center. After the battle was won, he returned home to Cybertron with the other Autobots. {{storylink|Transformers: The Last Knight (film)|The Last Knight}}

[[File:Crosshairs Bumblebee Thousand Island Flight.jpg|right|150px|thumb|Crosshairs attempts to demonstrate his new web shooters to Bumblebee.]]
Crosshairs arrived on Earth sometime after the Decepticon invasion of [[Chicago]], and assisted [[Bumblebee (Movie)|Bumblebee]] and [[Optimus Prime (Movie)|Optimus Prime]] on a mission to track and eliminate three Decepticon survivors in [[Indonesia]]. The Decepticons retreated but Crosshairs had placed a tracking device (which doubled as a bomb) on their boss, and tracked them to [[Pulau Bidadari]]. He requested permission to go alone, claiming a sneak attack by one bot would catch the enemy off guard; in large part, this was done to show off his skills as Crosshairs felt humans couldn’t be trusted anymore and it was just up to Autobots.

On Pulua Bidadari, he swiftly took out all three of his charges (secretly under the watchful eye of Bumblebee), making sure to mock the Decepticon he’d planted the bomb on before it went off. Optimus felt that Crosshairs was more than combat ready but that they had missed [[Lockdown (ROTF)|something]]. Crosshairs (incorrectly) reassured him otherwise. {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 5.2|Thousand Island Fight}}

When Optimus Prime insisted the Autobots learn how to ride Dinobots, Crosshairs and Drift quickly managed to get atop of their steeds. Warning them not to get cocky, Optimus suggested a combat drill between the two of them. Crosshairs charged [[Scorn]] towards Drift and [[Slug (AOE)|Slug]] with full force...only for the Dinobots to halt at the last moment and launch their riders into each other. But when Grimlock detected Decepticons nearby, Scorn allowed Crosshairs to ride him once again as they headed out into battle. {{Storylink|How to Ride a Dinobot!}}

*'''Crosshairs''' (Deluxe, 2014)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''AD06'''
**''Accessories:'' 1 machine gun, 2 pistols/sticky-bombs

:Crosshairs turns into a licensed {{w|Chevrolet Corvette C7|2014 Chevrolet C7 Corvette Stingray}}. To replicate the duster coat he wears in the movie, his transformation involves much of the sides and roof of the vehicle mode folding up and wrapping around him, making him into a fairly egregious [[shellformer]]. But it looks awesome, so it matters not.
:He comes with what his packaging refers to as as "[[Sidearm Blaster]]s"; they are actually based on sticky-bombs featured in concept art for the character, but they can also be held as pistols and are depicted as such in all stock photography. He also comes with a single silenced submachine gun based on the pair he wielded in the movie proper, and he features storage for the blasters and SMG in his coattails (5mm ports underneath the rubber flaps) and calves, respectively.

:Because his duster increases his footprint by splaying out in all directions, Crosshairs is usually mistransformed both in-package and in stock photos so he can actually fit. In actual fact, his tailgate can fold down behind his head so that it's much less conspicuous and doesn't interfere with his [[light-piping]] gimmick, and two rubber flaps concealed under the vehicle mode windows fold out and connect to his torso beneath a pair of sculpted lapels, completing the duster as opposed to simply leaving Crosshairs as a robot trapped beneath the top half of a Corvette.

:Caution must be taken when transforming the rubber sections of the vehicle shell/trenchcoat, as the soft plastic is kept in place by metal pins which may erode the hinge areas, which can cause said hinges to loosen or the parts in question to tear and fall off.

:The ''[[Movie Advanced Series]]'' version of Crosshairs adds several new paint applications for a more screen-accurate look...except for a missing stripe on the right side of the vehicle.

:Crosshairs was redecoed into ''Age of Extinction'' [[Hot Shot (AOE)|Hot Shot]].

:Part of the third wave of ''[[Transformers: The Last Knight (toyline)|The Last Knight]] Premier Edition'' figures, Crosshairs is a retool of his ''Age of Extinction Generations'' release. The figure has new, movie-accurate weapons and remolds done to the vehicle mode to give off a more movie-accurate look. The soft rubber portions of the 'trenchcoat' have also been changed into solid plastic ones, improving durability of said portions. (The rubber parts from the previous toy were known to rip occasionally.)

:Apart from this, Crosshairs also suffers two design flaws: The simple-assembly wheels are known to easily pop off from the vehicle due to slightly wide holes, and the guns were unable to peg into his trenchcoats properly. This was later fixed in the re-release of the figure. The flawed release features a date code "72081", whereas the fixed version features a date code written as "72011". It was unknown if the flawed version also affects the Japanese release.

:Additionally, his hood section may seem like green plastic at first, but is in fact clear plastic painted over with green and black. Care should be taken when transforming the figure due to this.

==Notes==
*Crosshairs has a very similar, if not identical, voice as ''[[Transformers: Dark of the Moon (franchise)|Dark of the Moon]]'' Leadfoot. Both characters were voiced by John DiMaggio, however when Leadfoot is seen under attack by humans in ''Age of Extinction'', he reuses lines recorded by [[Robert Foxworth]] for [[Ratchet (Movie)|Ratchet]].
*Crosshairs, along with Hound, did not have any on screen transformations until ''The Last Knight'' was released.
*Crosshairs (or rather the car that portrays him) went under the pre-production name "Slingshot". Interestingly enough, Crosshairs's personality, that of a somewhat self-centered braggart with a wish for command, evokes [[Slingshot (G1)|the original bearer of the name "Slingshot"]].
*According to [[Paul Marlon Wood]], ''Kre-O'' Crosshairs' helmet piece is called "''[[Slingshot (G1)|Sling Shot]]'' Helmet".
* Although not as drastic as Bumblebee, Hound, and Drift's new alt-modes in ''The Last Knight'', Crosshair's Corvette mode does feature some changes from ''Age of Extinction'', most notably the rims colored to black, a different spoiler and a slightly different pattern.

[[File:Ironhideg1guido.jpg|thumb|upright=1.4|This is what Ironhide's toys took 32 years to look like.]]

'''[[Ironhide (G1)|Ironhide]]''' is a bot of many toys, all of which are tough customers.

==Toys==
===Generation 1===
[[File:G1 Ironhide toy.jpg|upright=1.66|thumb|Sit on my face and tell me that you love me.]]
*'''Ironhide''' (1984)
**''Accessories:'' "Static Laser Gun", gun post, 3 missiles

:Ironhide was part of the original assortment of [[Autobot]] cars released in 1984, transforming into a red Nissan Sunny-Vanette Coach SGL and sharing his mold with the contemporaneously released [[Ratchet (G1)/toys|Ratchet]]. Ironhide splits when he transforms, with most of the rear section of his van mode transforming into a [[Onebox component|battle platform]], and the remainder becoming his rather misshapen, headless robot form. The robot can mount onto the battle platform, which is armed with a raising missile launcher and front-mounted "Static Laser Gun". Unusually for toys of this period, the Static Laser Gun can actually store when Ironhide is in vehicle mode, plugging into his undercarriage (although the missiles for his launcher and the peg required to attach the laser don't go anywhere).

:As with all his fellow Autobot Cars from that year, Ironhide's mold derived from [[TakaraTomy|Takara]]'s ''[[Diaclone]]'' line, a series which was ''not'' about sentient robots, but rather human-controlled machines. The Ironhide and Ratchet molds are the ones that most clearly show evidence of this: in place of a head, these toy robots had chairs behind windscreens where the human rider would control the robot. The figures did include [[sticker]]s to go over these seats that depicted a sort of robot face, but when Ironhide and Ratchet's [[character model]]s were created for ''Transformers'' media, all traces of the human-controlled design were removed to give the robots proper faces and heads, ultimately creating the two designs which diverged the most from the toys on which they were ostensibly based.

:The stripe on the side of his vehicle mode (a sticker on the toy) is actually based on a special edition of the Nissan Cherry Vanette. On the real vehicle, the rear section (which is black on the toy's sticker) is actually the sliding rear door rail.<ref name="stripe">[http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/transformers-general-discussion/438046-g1-ironhides-stripes-explained.html "G1 Ironhide's Stripes...EXPLAINED!"] at TFW2005</ref>

: For unknown reasons, Ironhide was the only Autobot Car not released by Takara as part of their [[Fight! Super Robot Lifeform Transformers (toyline)|original retail line]] in any form (while Ratchet was not available at retail, he was available as a [[S.T.A.R.S.]] mail away item). Ironhide was reissued several times; this article lists each reissue separately where appropriate.

*'''Classic Ironhide''' (Classic Heroes, 1990)
**''Accessories:'' "Static Laser Gun", gun post, 3 missiles

:The original Ironhide toy was first reissued in 1990 alongside several other early Transformers as part of the European-exclusive [[Classics (Europe)|''Classics'']] range. He was functionally identical to his original release.
{{-}}

===Generation 2===
[[File:G2Gobot Ironhide.jpg|upright=1.66|thumb|Not a Gateway.]]
*'''Ironhide''' (Go-Bot, 1995)
**''Accessories:'' Gun

: Part of the second wave of [[Go-Bot (G2)|Go-Bots]] focusing on Generation 1 characters, Ironhide transforms into a silver Ford F150 Flareside pickup truck. Using through-axle construction for his wheels, he is compatible with most "Hot Wheels" and "Matchbox" play sets and tracks.

: The mold is a [[redeco]] of ''Generation 2'' Go-Bots toy [[Motormouth]], and was later redecoed into the ''[[Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2001 toyline)|Robots in Disguise]]'' [[Spy Changer]] [[Ironhide (RID)|Ironhide]], the ''[[Transformers: Universe (2003 toyline)|Universe]]'' Autobot [[Ironhide (RID)|Ironhide]], and the second ''Universe'' incarnation of [[Hoist (G1)/toys|Hoist]].

: The toy was later [[repurposing|repurposed]] to be a [[Ironhide (G2)|"next-generation" clone of Ironhide]].

[[File:G2-toy IronhidePM.jpg|upright=1.66|thumb|Technically always in vehicle mode!]]
*'''Ironhide''' (Power Master, 1995)
**''Accessories:'' 2 guns

:[[Power Master]] Ironhide transforms into a khaki camouflaged-and-armored Humvee. His main gimmick is his "Power Master" pull-back motor, which you use by pulling back on his motorized rear wheels, then placing one of his guns into one of the holes above the doors, which releases a catch and allows him to zip along a smooth surface.

:The Power Masters were the last toys in the ''Generation 2'' line, and were only released in Europe, Australia, and New Zealand. Oddly, the Australia and New Zealand releases were in US packaging, complete with [[Hasbro]]'s Rhode Island address. They also conspicuously lack any mention of [[TakaraTomy|Takara]] in their stamped-on [[copyright]] information.

===Beast Wars===
[[File:Ironhide-bw-magnaboss-toy.jpg|upright=1.66|thumb|Yes, this Alien-faced monstrosity certainly screams out "G1 Ironhide"! Who could possibly think otherwise?!]]
*'''Magnaboss''' (Ultra Class, 1997)
**''Accessories:'' 2 guns

: Ironhide transforms from an elephant via a rather complex process involving numerous hinges and unfolding panels into a rather stumpy robot. Although dumpy, he is nothing if not well-armed: he has a flip-out spike at the end of each arm, and comes with two removable guns that flip out from behind his elephant mode ears, and which can be plugged into the holes at the ends of his arms. Ironhide is packaged with [[Prowl (G1)/toys|Prowl]] and [[Silverbolt (G1)|Silverbolt]], and combines with them to form his [[Magnaboss (BW)|Magnaboss]]. Ironhide forms the bulk of the combiner's mass, including all four limbs.

:The Magnaboss toy included no information about its three components beyond their names. In 2007, [[IDW Publishing]] decided to retroactively establish that the trio were the ''Generation 1'' characters of the same names, and included this revelation in their ''[[Transformers: Beast Wars Sourcebook|Beast Wars Sourcebook]]''.

: Ironhide was slightly redecoed to create [[Santon]].

*'''Ironhide''' (e-HOBBY exclusive, June 2001)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''98'''
**''Accessories:'' "Static Laser Gun", gun post, 3 missiles

:Ironhide was made available in Japan for the first time as part of the ''[[Collector's Edition]]'' line of reissues, available exclusively from online retailer [[e-HOBBY]] in a two-pack with mold-mate Ratchet. As the first Japanese edition of Ironhide, this was the first time the toy had been given a [[List of Japanese ID numbers|Japanese ID number]].

===Timelines===

*'''Descent into Evil''' (Multi-figure boxset, 2005)
**''Accessories:'' Fold out gun/radar energon weapon, BotCon 2005 pin
: A [[BotCon 2005]] convention exclusive, ''[[Transformers Timelines (fiction)|Timelines]]'' Ironhide was only available in the ''[[Descent into Evil]]'' boxset. He is a [[retool]] and redeco of ''[[Transformers: Energon (toyline)|Energon]]'' [[Tow-Line (Energon)|Tow-Line]], with a newly sculpted head resembling his Generation 1 animation model. Like his original toy, Ironhide splits from a van into a robot mode and a [[Onebox component|battle sled]], each featuring [[powerlinx]] ports that allow them to combine with any other compatible Deluxe or Mega from the ''Energon'' toyline; Ironhide himself forms the "torso" in such a combination (armed with small guns that flip out from his feet to become over-shoulder blasters), while his battle sled becomes the "legs" for another robot. Because of his unusual design, Ironhide can powerlinx with his own battle sled. Ironhide is armed with a translucent blue [[Energon weapon]] that can fit in his fist in robot mode, mount on his battle sled, and transform into a radar array to mount on top of his van mode.

: Ironhide's retooled mold was also used for ''Timelines'' [[Ratchet (G1)/toys|Ratchet]].

===Encore===
[[File:Encoretoy-Ironhidewithhead.jpg|thumb|upright=1.66|His head problem just became a shoulders problem.]]
*'''Ironhide''' (2007)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''05'''
**''Accessories:'' "Static Laser Gun", gun post, 3 missiles

: Ironhide's original Generation 1 toy was made available again in mid-December 2007 as part of Takara's ongoing ''[[Transformers Encore|Encore]]'' line of [[Generation 1 reissues|reissues]]. This version was distinguished by the inclusion of a "head" of sorts for the figure: one of the toy's box flaps featured an illustration of Ironhide's cartoon-design head and chest windshield which could be punched out along its perforated edges, and then slotted behind the toy's windshield. This hid the "chair-face" of the original toy and gave Ironhide his cartoon face... at the cost of making his arms appear to grow out of his waist.

:This version of the toy was [[retool]]ed to add a pair of "clips" to the [[Onebox component|mobile platform's]] gun-base, designed to keep Ironhide more securely attached when riding it. However, these clips are right where a pair of decals normally go. Additionally, like the original Japanese release of the figure (but [[for safety reasons|unlike Hasbro's version]]), the missile launcher now fires.

[[File:G1toy protect black ironhide.jpg|thumb|upright=1.66|Once you go black, you go back to red shortly afterwards.]]
*'''Protect Black Ironhide''' (2008)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''05'''
**''Accessories:'' "Static Laser Gun", gun post, 3 missiles

:Tied in to Ironhide's ''Encore'' reissue was e-HOBBY's [[exclusive]] "New Year Special" [[redeco]] of the figure: Protect Black Ironhide. The toy was priced at 4725 yen, and pre-orders were taken until [[January 11]]th 2008, with a shipping date of April 2008.

:The new [[bio]] accompanying the release of the toy notes that Ironhide acquired this protective black coating to disguise himself from both Decepticons and members of the [[human]] criminal underworld, to better allow him to do his job as Optimus Prime's bodyguard. The bio also gives a name to the "mode" that consists of Ironhide standing atop his artillery platform, dubbing it his "Marauder Mode".

:[http://www.e-hobby.co.jp/shop/shopdetail.html?brandcode=034000000005&search=%A5%A2%A5%A4%A5%A2%A5%F3%A5%CF%A5%A4%A5%C9 According to e-HOBBY], the black coloration is meant to [[homage]] the original ''Diaclone'' toy which became Ironhide, but between the release of Emergency Green Ratchet and the bio's reference to black pickup trucks, it's easy to see this is also an homage to [[Ironhide (Movie)/toys|the new live-action movie Ironhide]]. The packaging is the same as the regular TF Encore Ironhide's.

===Universe (2008)===
[[File:TFU08-toy Ironhide.jpg|upright=1.66|thumb|Hey, I found my head! And that makes me sad.]]
*'''Ironhide''' (Deluxe Class, 2008)
**''Series'': Classic Series
**''Accessories'': "Converting Cannon" gun/blade

: As the first new-mold Ironhide toy designed to resemble the original character, ''[[Transformers: Universe (2008 toyline)|Universe]]'' Ironhide transforms into a red SUV of made-up model. His chest features an [[Automorph Technology|Automorph]]-like gimmick that sees mechanical detailing rise up behind his chestplate when his bumper is lowered. He is armed with a double-ended "Converting Cannon" weapon, which deploys a translucent melee blade from one end, and a gatling cannon from the other. Although the instructions indicate that Ironhide's weapon should be attached by flipping his hand to the side of his wrist (as in transformation) and fitting the weapon over the naked wrist, the hand ''can'' in fact be made to fit inside the weapon with some careful jiggling.

: His [[stock photography]] (seen [[:File:Universe 2008 Ironhide Toy.jpg|here]]) shows him with a silver face and hubcaps, but as the final product shows, that didn't happen. While Hasbro claimed there would be a [[Variant|running change]] that would have the face in silver, no such change occurred. Speaking of packaging, Ironhide was also the first new ''Universe'' figure to have [[package art]] that wasn't burdened with [[dull surprise]].

: The figure has a couple of production flaws. Due to a combination of three places on the figure having too much plastic, Ironhide's head assembly does not have the clearance to rise up fully, and it ends up looking like he's hanging his head in shame. However, with some heavy tinkering, the head can be raised to a more level, straight position [http://www.seibertron.com/transformers/news/transtopia-fix-universe-20-ironhides-low-self-esteem/14298/]. The paint on the car roof has also been reported to rub off over time, and can have a sticky feel to it.

: This mold was retooled to make [[Ratchet (G1)/toys#Universe (2008)|''Universe'' Ratchet]] and ''[[Henkei! Henkei! Transformers (toyline)|Henkei!]]'' [[Ratchet (G1)/toys#Henkei! Henkei!|Ratchet]] (surprising absolutely no one), plus [[BotCon 2012]]'s [[Soundwave (SG)#TLSoundwave|Sir Soundwave]]. This toy also served as the model for the [[Ironhide (SG)|''Shattered Glass'' incarnation]] of Ironhide.

*'''Ironhide''' (Deluxe Class, 2008-[[November 20|11-20]])
**''Japanese ID number'': '''C-11'''
**''Accessories'': Converting Cannon

:''[[Henkei! Henkei! Transformers (toyline)|Henkei! Henkei!]] Transformers'' Ironhide is a redeco of ''Universe'' Ironhide, with a view to making him far more accurate to his [[The Transformers (cartoon)|original ''The Transformers'' cartoon]] appearance. To this end, a generally darker shade of red plastic and lighter gray plastic are used. Additionally, the blue paint used for his opaque windows is a better match to his transparent blue windows than on Hasbro's ''Universe'' toy. As with all ''Henkei'' toys, Ironhide features [[Vacuum metallizing|vacuum-metallized]] silver for his headlights, brake lights and his Converting Cannon housing.

:Although the instructions indicate that Ironhide's weapon should be attached by flipping his hand to the side of his wrist (as in transformation) and fitting the weapon over the naked wrist, the hand can in fact be made to fit inside the weapon with some careful jiggling.

**''Accessories'': Rack, large cannon, disruptor pistol, gripper-claw, double-bladed staff

: Part of the first assortment of "Custom Kreons", this version of Ironhide comes with a buildable parts rack on which to hang/store his many many extra pieces. His [[tampograph]]s are much more heavily-detailed than the original Kreon, based on the [[Ironhide (G1)/toys#Generation 1|original Ironhide toy]]. His "normal" helmet and large cannon (originally from ''Kre-O [[G.I. Joe (franchise)|G.I. Joe]]'') are [[chrome]]d, plus he comes with an extra clear-plastic helmet, torso and legs. He also has a pair of extra arms (originally from the ''Kre-O Battleship'' aliens), plus a buildable cannon based around the aforementioned chrome gun, a small pistol (originally a [[Klingon]] disruptor from ''Kre-O [[Star Trek]]''), a bendable gripping-claw, and a double-headed staff weapon.

: Take extreme care with the chrome rifle/clear-plastic barrel combination, as attaching the two pieces will pretty much guarantee stress fractures on the clear-plastic barrel.

He has oddly been given a [[Wheeljack (G1)/toys#Kre-O|Wheeljack]] wing-pack, despite neither the toy or cartoon giving him wings.

:He was only available in a [[San Diego Comic-Con]] 2014 [[exclusive]] pack of 30 Kreons dubbed the "[[Kreon Class of 1984]]". Remaining stock was to be sold at [[Hasbro Toy Shop]] online, only there ''was'' no remaining stock after the show.

: Part of the second wave of ''[[Bot Shots (toyline)|Bot Shots]]'' Series 1 launchers, Ironhide is a teeny pickup truck (with spoiler) with a [[Autotransformation|spring-loaded automatic transformation]] to robot mode triggered when his front bumper is pressed. He has a "spinner" in his chest that shows his three attack types and power levels. His alternate mode and chest design are based on [[Ironhide (Movie)|live-action movie Ironhide]], with his head being based on the original Generation 1 Ironhide.

:He comes with a large trailer that pops open into a battle station with a pair of articulated buzzsaw-arms, and a spring-loaded vehicle launching ramp. The cannons on top of the trailer are based on live-action movie Ironhide's cannons.

:Ironhide was redecoed into [[Dirt Boss (Cybertron)#Bot Shots|Super Bot Dirt Boss]], [[Hound (G1)/toys#Bot Shots|Blitz Shot Autobot Hound]] and [[Swindle (G1)#Bot Shots|Swindle]].

*'''Ironhide''' (Deluxe Class, 2015)
**''Accessories:'' Axe, "super-cooled nitrogen/white-hot molten lead" dual cannon/hand/foot/engine

: Part of the fourth wave of ''[[Transformers: Generations|Generations]] [[Combiner Wars (toyline)|Combiner Wars]]'' Deluxe Class toys, Ironhide is a redeco/new-head retool of [[Offroad#Generations|Decepticon Offroad]], which transforms from a 4x4 double-cab pickup truck which is reminiscent of his [[Ironhide (Movie)|live-action movie counterpart]] to robot and back! As a ''Combiner Wars'' Deluxe figure he can form a combined-mode limb for any Voyager Class toys from the same subline or any ''Unite Warriors'' figure or into one of [[Godbomber#Legends|''Legends'' Godbomber's]] legs but is, of course, intended to be combined with Sunstreaker, Mirage, Prowl, and Optimus Prime to create [[Optimus Maximus (G1)#Toys|Optimus Maximus]]. He is also officially associated with [[Betatron]] and [[Magnaboss (BW)|Magnaboss]]. A sticker sheet was sold at [[BotCon 2016]] to enhance Ironhide's resemblance to the original ''Beast Wars'' figure.

:He includes a [[5mm post|5mm handle]] axe weapon, and a larger accessory that can form a hand or foot in limb mode, a gun for robot mode, and can be mounted on a tab in the vehicle mode's truck bed to form a giant engine block. In an unadvertised feature, the peg on his engine weapon is the right size to mount a [[Mini-Con]] on.

:While the front hood/windshields are needed to be folded as kneecaps for his leg mode, the piece also sticks out automatically if he collides to Optimus Prime/Motormaster's (or and of Hot Spot's redecoes/retools) protruding foot while the legs are being swiveled in his standing position, unless the leg joints are bent down to lessen the problem.

: Hilariously, the robot mode [[stock photography|stock photo]] depicting a hand-painted [[prototype]] that's featured on the back of the toy's packaging is missing the wheel on his right leg.

:Ironhide is packed with the comic book "[[First Contact (IDW)|First Contact]]", rebranded as ''Combiner Wars'' #15. In Canada, Latin America, and Europe, he was available in different types of [[multilingual packaging]] including a character card featuring his comic book cover/[[package art]] instead. He and the last three waves of Combiner Wars Deluxe and Voyager figures later started showing up at TJ Maxx at reduced prices with the collector card.

:The original sculpt was redecoed as [[Ruckus (G1)#Generations|Grabuge]], heavily retooled as [[First Aid (G1)#Generations|First Aid]] and differently retooled as [[Trailbreaker (G1)/toys#Combiner Wars|Trailbreaker]].

*'''Ironhide''' (Deluxe Class, [[2019]])
**''ID number:'' '''WFC-S21'''
**''Japanese ID number'': '''SG-17'''
**''Japanese release date'': '''[[April 27]], 2019'''
**''Accessories:'' "W-35 LR Doomblast Forge Launcher"
:Part of the second wave of ''[[War for Cybertron: Siege (toyline)|Siege]]'' Deluxe Class figures, Ironhide is a new mold that transforms from robot to Cybertronian van and back. His vehicle mode takes several design cues from ''Titans Return'' [[Kup (G1)/toys#Titans Return|Sergeant Kup]], though it shares no parts or engineering with the mold. Despite being classified as a Deluxe-scale figure, Ironhide is actually a full head taller than the other Deluxe figures of the same line. He includes a gigantic missile launcher cannon called the "W-35 LR Doomblast Forge Launcher," compatible with the [[C.O.M.B.A.T. System]], that can also convert into an equally gigantic hammer. As with all non-gimmick ''Siege'' figures, Ironhide features  "battle damage" paint applications on his lower shins, feet and weapon. He also features 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.

: There are two 5mm peg holes on the inside of his shin panels that are only usable by opening them up in vehicle mode. This appears to be based on his original toy's weapon platform, and has enough room to stand a Micromaster figure inside behind his fists. However, this is not mentioned in his instructions, suggesting the hardpoints may be from a cancelled gimmick or a potential retool.

:Ironhide suffers from a production flaw that causes the molded hinges on his legs to be too small to properly house the side panels from his vehicle mode, causing them to pop off at the slightest pressure. This can be resolved by removing the panels and using a small screwdriver to carefully widen the pegholes, which creates enough clearance to properly house the panels within the hinges.

:He includes ankle pivots as well as a waist swivel, despite both serving no purpose in transformation.

:Ironhide was given a new head as [[Crosshairs (G1)#Generations|Crosshairs]], and was retooled into [[Ratchet_(G1)/toys#War_for_Cybertron:_Siege|Ratchet]].

**''Accessories:'' 2 Laser pistols, Static Laser Gun, missile launcher, missile, 2 alternate hands, 4 nozzles, wrist [[sonodar]], chest screen, jetpack, 2 flare effects, battle sled, 2 faces
: ''[[The Transformers: Masterpiece|Masterpiece]]'' Ironhide is a new mold that transforms into a licensed Cherry Vanette. He is in the standard Masterpiece [[scale]] (since [[Hot Rod (G1)/toys#Masterpiece|MP-9]]), standing between MP-10 [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys#MP10|Convoy]] and MP-12 [[Sideswipe (G1)/toys#Masterpiece|Lambor]] in bot mode and can fit inside [[Combat Deck (G1)#MP10|Convoy's trailer]] in vehicle mode

: He comes with a bunch of accessories referencing many of the gadgets he used in the [[The Transformers (cartoon)|Generation 1 cartoon]]. Ironhide's [[character model]] did not include any weapons or other extra tools or devices, meaning there was little to no consistency in the depiction of his armament in the series; as such, the toy picks and chooses from the many weapons and accoutrements he was seen using. He includes a pair of generic Autobot laser pistols of the same design as the gun that came with ''Masterpiece'' Bumblebee (which Ironhide began using in "[[Megatron's Master Plan, Part 1]]") which can be stored on the underside of his vehicle mode, a larger gun based on his original toy's Static Laser Gun (similar weapons having been seen in "[[City of Steel (episode)|City of Steel]]" and "[[A Prime Problem]]"), a set of alternate hands representing his ability to spray liquids through his fingertips (done in multiple episodes), a set of nozzles that can be exchanged for his hands based on those seen in "[[Desertion of the Dinobots, Part 1]]", a second set of nozzles based not on anything from the cartoon, but on the ''connector peg'' for his Static Laser Gun from his original toy, the back-mounded missile launcher from "[[More than Meets the Eye, Part 3]]" based on his original toy's launcher, his wrist-mounted sonodar sensor dish from "[[S.O.S. Dinobots]]", complimented by a readout image of dinosaur bones that can be slipped behind his windshield, and the jetpack seen in "[[The Immobilizer]]", complete with jet-flare effects. A peg hole on the roof of his vehicle mode can hold one of the laser pistols or the Static Laser Gun.

:Since ''Masterpiece'' Ironhide's robot mode incorporates the entire vehicle mode, a separate "battle sled" piece has been included, based on the component of the original toy, that can store all of Ironhide's accessories, including a second face piece that stores on the underside of the sled. In an additional nod to the original G1 toy, specifically its lack of a proper head, there is a sculpted detail resembling the "face" decal that went on the seat of the original toy that is visible through the windshield in van mode, that gets tucked away in robot mode.

: There have been reports that the first release of the mold's chrome parts suffer from early corrosion similar to the issues encountered with the initial MP-5 [[Megatron (G1)/toys#MP5|Megatron]].

:If purchased from a seller supplied by Hasbro Asia, Ironhide includes a collector coin, mounted in a card which resembles the front of his van mode. It may have also included a [[die cast]] drill accessory, based on the one he used in "[[More than Meets the Eye, Part 3]]". The drill accessory came in a small case styled to resemble a tool case.<ref>[http://news.tfw2005.com/2016/09/14/masterpiece-ironhide-asia-exclusive-drill-accessory-images-324829 Masterpiece Ironhide Asia exclusive drill accessory images]</ref>

:Compared to the ''Combiner Wars'' release, Ironhide has numerous changes in deco to better match his look in the Generation 1 cartoon: While he shares an identical paint mask to the ''Combiner Wars'' figure, his black [[Unpaintable plastic|unpaintable parts]] are now in the same shade of light grey. Other changes include the stripes being yellow-y orange, a black paint is added on the front roof, and his gunmetal paint on the hood & wheel rims are now silver.

: Ironhide was among the many characters rendered by [[TakaraTomy|Takara]] as part of their series of 1.5" soft rubber ''keshigomu'' figurines. Like all the figures in the series, Ironhide featured a number sculpted into his back that was the sum total of his [[Tech Spec]]s, for use in the various games that could be played with the figurines. He was available in red as part of a 22-piece box set of Autobot figures, in peach as part of various other randomly-packed box sets released by Takara subsidiary [[Seven]], and in a wide variety of different colors in "gachapon" capsule machines.

*'''Ironhide''' (Decoy, 1987)
**''Decoy number'': 7

: The Ironhide figurine was later brought over to [[Hasbro]] markets as part of the [[Decoy]] promotion, largely identical to the Japanese release except the number on his back was replaced with a simple "checklist" number. Like all Autobot Decoys, he was a randomly-chosen pack-in available with the carded [[Throttlebot]]s, [[Aerialbot (G1)|Aerialbots]], [[Protectobot (G1)|Protectobots]], and [[Technobot (G1)|Technobot]]s.

: A three-inch tall [[plastic|PVC]] figurine of Ironhide was available in the third "act" of [[TakaraTomy|Takara]]'s ''[[Heroes of Cybertron|Super Collection Figure]]'' line. His pistol and nozzle-tipped-fingers left hand are modeled after his appearance in "[[The Search for Alpha Trion]]", though the pistol is painted black rather than light gray as in the episode. Like all the figures in the wave, it was available as both a standard full color figure and a colorless clear plastic version, one of each of which was available in a standard case of twelve [[blindpacking|blindpacked]] figures.

: In two out of every ten cases, the full-color version of Ironhide came packaged with the left leg of the wave's collectable [[Fortress Maximus (G1)/toys#Super Collection Figure|Fortress Maximus]] "build-a-figure". This part itself could be in either full color or clear plastic, packed at an equal 1:1 ratio.

: This figure was slightly reworked to make ''SCF'' [[Ratchet (G1)/toys#Super Collection Figure|Ratchet]].

This detailed bust is based on Ironhide's (you guessed it) cartoon/comic model, but with much more detailing and with elements of his toy design. These include his vehicle sled's missile launcher mounted on his shoulder, his wielding of his sled's static laser gun and his original Diaclone "face" being present behind his windshield.

*The black ''[[Diaclone]]'' version of Ironhide was sold by [[TakaraTomy|Takara]] in North America as the ''[[Diakron]]'' "DK-2" Car/Robot in 1983, seemingly just a few months before he would be rebranded as a Transformer.

*An early version of [[Power Master]] Ironhide's artwork in blue and yellow was used on packaging mock-ups displayed around [[Hasbro]]'s headquarters bearing the names "Light Speed", "Belzone", and "Pothole", though no release of these toys was ever intended.
*A mock-up of a new [[Camshaft (G1)|Camshaft]] toy in the form of a ''Universe'' (2008) Ironhide redeco was shown in ''[[Transformers Generations 2014]]'' Vol. 1 as one of ten potential exclusives for Vol. 2. During the fan poll held to determine which of the ten would be produced, Camshaft claimed only 1.6% of the votes, leaving him in second-to-last place.<ref>[http://millionhero.sblo.jp/article/101898683.html Poll results at Hero-X]</ref>

[[File:Chromiamodelsheet.jpg|upright=1.4|thumb|"At least our animated character models didn't have [[Heel struts|high heels]]."]]
'''Chromia''' is a seasoned, tough-as-nails infiltrator who's adept at unflinching sabotage. Bluntly honest and a little married to her job, she doesn't make an ideal friend, but she can nevertheless be fiercely protective, a quality which also makes her an exceptional bodyguard. Her rough edges often find her a kinship with other like-minded security officers such as [[Ironhide (G1)|Ironhide]]. More diplomatic peers such as [[Windblade (G1)|Windblade]] have attempted to socialize her, but beware—she might "arrange" an exit out of an overwhelming interpersonal situation with a quietly-placed detonator.

Four million years ago, Chromia tried to board the [[Ark (G1)|Ark]], while it was being attacked, with the rest of Elita One's team. The plan failed though, and she and the others appeared to be destroyed.

Chromia led a mission to steal [[energon cube]]s from [[Shockwave (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Shockwave]]. When [[Moonracer (G1)|Moonracer]] got trapped after disobeying orders, Chromia confronted the alerted Shockwave and managed to trick him into freeing Moonracer.

Shortly thereafter, a team of [[Decepticon]]s from [[Earth]] came to capture Elita One. In doing so, [[Rumble (G1)|Rumble]] destroyed the Female Autobots' underground base, trapping them inside. When they managed to free themselves, Chromia took charge of the search for their missing leader. On their way, they met up with a group of Earth-stationed Autobots who had come looking for [[Optimus Prime (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Optimus Prime]] and Chromia was reunited with [[Ironhide (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Ironhide]]. The two teams together fought the Decepticons, eventually winning when Optimus and Elita returned. Given a new base by [[Alpha Trion (G1)|Alpha Trion]], Chromia stayed with Elita's squad on [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]] when Optimus' team returned to Earth. {{storylink|The Search for Alpha Trion}}

To gather energy for the energy-sapped Autobots, a crew was formed to pilot the ''[[Ark (G1)|Ark]]''. Chromia was to be part of the crew, but a Decepticon attack blocked her and others from reaching the ship before it departed. Soon after, as their current reserve of energies was dangerously low, Chromia joined her comrades still on the planet in stasis hibernation as an energy-saving measure. {{storylink|Battle Lines, Part 6}}

Chromia was a member of an elite squad of five warriors under the command of the [[Quintesson]]s. [[The Route of All Evil|Following a report]] from their Autobot sleeper agent, [[Arcee (G1)|Arcee]], that the awaited situation to commence their mission had come, [[Elita One (G1)|Elita One]] used a [[space bridge]] to get to the [[Autobase]] on [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]]. Chromia and the others waited patiently for her to signal that they could follow. Chromia joined her commander soon after it came. With only [[Firestar (G1)|Firestar]] still to get through the portal, the group was attacked by [[Gnaw (G1)|Gnaw]], but [[Moonracer (G1)|Moonracer]] and Elita One took care of that. While the rest of the team went further into the Autobot facility, Chromia was sent back to [[Quintessa (planet)|Quintessa]] with an unconscious [[Hot Rod (G1)|Hot Rod]]. {{storylink|Unreleased Dreamwave issues#Issue 11|Generation 1 #11}}

Chromia and her ward [[Flareup (G1)|Flareup]] were part of an Autobot strike force tasked with destroying the [[Decepticon]] general [[Deathsaurus (Victory)|Deathsaurus]]' cloning lab on [[Ceti Alpha Seven]]. Although the pair had handily beaten Deathsaurus's [[Insecticon (G1)|Insecticon]] underling [[Buzzclaw (G1)|Buzzclaw]] on [[Regulon Four]] some time previous, they were taken by surprise by the first production run of clones. Although Chromia fought effectively against the clones, she was no match for Deathsaurus himself when he entered the battle personally. Falling before the general's might, she was taken captive.

Chromia, along with her teammates ''and'' the backup team of Ironhide and [[Ratchet (G1)|Ratchet]], was ultimately rescued when [[Ricochet (Timelines)|Ricochet]], who had evaded capture, came to the rescue of the entire Autobot party. {{storylink|Descent into Evil}}

===2005 IDW continuity===
:*''First Appearance:'' [[Megatron Origin issue 3|''Megatron Origin'' #3]] (apocryphal); [[The Dead Are Not Enough: Dark Cybertron Chapter 7|''Transformers: Robots in Disguise'' #25]]

[[File:DarkCybertron7 Chromia.jpg|thumb|left]]
One erroneous account presented Chromia as a Cybertronian, who was among those attended [[Bumper (G1)|Bumper]] and [[Fastback (G1)|Fastback]]'s funeral. {{storylink|Megatron Origin issue 3|Megatron Origin #3}} However, every other account shows that Chromia was born from the hot spot contained in the [[Titan (group)|Titan]] [[Caminus (Titan)|Caminus]], who founded [[Caminus (planet)|a distant colony in his name]] that was cut off from [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]] long before the war and whose citizens retained differentiated genders. Her people's isolation ended with the arrival of [[Thunder Clash|Thunderclash]], who had come seeking help from a [[Cityspeaker]] in order to aid [[Metroplex (G1)|Metroplex]]. The chosen Cityspeaker, [[Windblade (G1)|Windblade]], needed a bodyguard, however, and so Chromia (and [[Nautica (G1)|Nautica]]) were enlisted. {{storylink|A 'Bot and Her City|A Bot and Her City}} {{storylink|If I Know You}} The three joined the crew of the ''[[Vis Vitalis]]'' shortly before it crossed paths with [[Alpha Trion (G1)|Alpha Trion]]. The legendary Autobot was preoccupied with an important quest, so the three volunteered to watch after Metroplex for him and keep him alive. {{storylink|Burning Bright: Dark Cybertron Chapter 8|Burning Bright}} Under their watch, Metroplex's insides were besieged with invaders, so Chromia and Nautica hunted them down to confront them and fight them off, if necessary. They found a small group of robots and Chromia threatened to put the hurt down on them. {{storylink|The Dead Are Not Enough: Dark Cybertron Chapter 7|The Dead Are Not Enough}}

Their adversaries turned out to be fellow Autobots from the ''[[Lost Light]]'' who were battling an army of angered [[Ammonite]]s. Chromia and Nautica led them back to their boss, Windblade, who explained their mission, and subsequently the ''Lost Light'' was able to give Metroplex a jump, allowing him to [[space bridge|spacebridge]] back to Cybertron. {{storylink|Burning Bright: Dark Cybertron Chapter 8|Burning Bright}} On arrival, they couldn't do much but hang on tight within Metroplex as the city-bot did battle with the [[Quintessa (IDW)|Necrotitan]]. {{storylink|Finis Temporis: Dark Cybertron Chapter 9|Finis Temporis}} Following Metroplex's victory, Chromia and her pals got to mingle with the locals, including another female Autobot named [[Arcee (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Arcee]]. {{storylink|The Becoming: Dark Cybertron Chapter 10|The Becoming}} When [[Shockwave (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Shockwave]]'s army of Ammonites invaded Cybertron, the three Camiens returned to Metroplex to convince him to fight the invaders. {{storylink|Black Planet: Dark Cybertron Chapter 11|Black Planet}} Toward the end of the battle, [[Mainframe (G1)|Mainframe]] contacted Chromia to let them to know the ''Lost Light'' was about to ram [[Monstructor (G1)|Monstructor]], though she got frustrated by the vague, dramatic way he phrased it. {{storylink|...And the Damage Done: Dark Cybertron Finale|...And the Damage Done}}

Chromia accompanied Nautica to her audition to join the crew of the ''Lost Light'', helping out by keeping her friend's rambling to a minimum. Chromia and Windblade later attended [[Megatron (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Megatron]]'s trial. {{storylink|World, Shut Your Mouth Part 1: Towards Peace|Towards Peace}} The pair went to find cover when a group of Decepticons disrupted proceedings with the intent to rescue the defendant. {{storylink|World, Shut Your Mouth Part 3: Predestination: A Beginner's Guide|Predestination: A Beginner's Guide}}

[[File:BotAndHerCity-nottechnicallydawn.jpg|thumb|upright=1.66|Face it tiger, you just hit the jackpot.]]

Six months later, Chromia had stayed behind on Cybertron in order to protect and train Windblade as she performed her role as Metroplex's Cityspeaker. She was highly untrusting of Cybertron's elected ruler, [[Starscream (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Starscream]], though Windblade preferred to give him the benefit of the doubt. When Windblade sought advice on how to best interact with Starscream, Chromia scoffed at Windblade's choice of talking to the "mopey" [[Ironhide (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Ironhide]], but was visibly upset when Windblade teased her about telling Ironhide she described him as such. Later, Chromia accompanied Windblade as the pair investigated an area of the city that might reveal why Metroplex was suffering blackouts, and at the end of the day Chromia insisted they not over-exert themselves and reconvene in the morning. {{storylink|A 'Bot and Her City}} Chromia planted a bomb near where they'd be, in an attempt to make Windblade return to Caminus. {{storylink|Windblade issue 4|Windblade vol. 1 #4}} In the morning, when she and Windblade returned to the area, the bomb exploded, damaging Windblade. Chromia dragged her to medical care. {{storylink|A 'Bot and Her City}}

[[File:Windblade3-altmodes.jpg|left|thumb|No, it's true, they actually elected Starscream.]]
Chromia was guarding Windblade when Starscream paid her a visit, and afterwards encouraged Windblade to pursue the idea that Starscream was behind the bomb. Enlisting Ironhide's help, they followed up a lead in the form of [[Waspinator (BW)|Waspinator]] whom Chromia had to physically tackle when he tried to run. Chromia stayed in [[Blurr (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Blurr]]'s bar while Windblade went with Waspinator. After Windblade discovered Starscream was trying to mine ore from Metroplex, Chromia joined a team that went down to investigate. {{storylink|A Long Way Down}} They were attacked by the [[Terrorcon (G1)|Terrorcons]] and Chromia went instinctively to Windblade's aid, eventually managing to avoid being arrested when Starscream and Rattrap arrived. {{storylink|Windblade issue 3|Windblade vol. 1 #3}} She arranged for Metroplex's spacebridge to activate, {{storylink|Windblade issue 4|Windblade vol. 1 #4}} and organized a jail break, successfully springing Windblade and the others. As they headed for Metroplex, Windblade revealed that she believed Starscream wasn't behind the bomb. {{storylink|Windblade issue 3|Windblade vol. 1 #3}}

The pair rushed to Metroplex, where Chromia insisted Windblade merge with the Titan's mind. She fought with Starscream when he arrived, but he managed to injure Windblade and sliced off Chromia's right arm. Windblade, merged with Metroplex, was able to subdue him with the Titan's internal defenses and revealed she'd discovered Chromia was behind the bomb. Though Chromia encouraged Windblade to make Metroplex jump back to Caminus, Windblade instead opted to shut the spacebridge down in favor of making a deal with Starscream. {{storylink|Windblade issue 4|Windblade vol. 1 #4}}

She was among the group present when [[Wheeljack (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Wheeljack]] was brought back online, though she wasn't as enthusiastic about the event when she observed how happy Starscream was. {{storylink|The World of Tomorrow}} Chromia then participated in the violent arrest of the [[Firecon]]s, primary suspects in a series of murders, {{storylink|Quest for Fire}} and was present when they were locked up. {{storylink|The Killing Jar (issue)|The Killing Jar}}

[[File:AllThatRemains-ChromiaHasHadEnough.jpg|thumb|right|upright=1.66]]

Chromia and Ironhide found Windblade and Optimus Prime being attacked by Decepticons and Chromia managed to stop the fight through sheer force of intimidation. They retired to Metroplex to contemplate the spacebridge, now linked to Caminus. Optimus ordered Chromia and Ironhide to guard the portal; however they were unable to prevent [[Swindle (G1)|Swindle]] from taking [[Menasor (G1)|Menasor]] through. {{storylink|First Contact (IDW)|First Contact}} They headed through the portal with Starscream's forces and attacked Menasor. The giant briefly held Chromia in his fist until she broke free. In the end, the battle was decided when [[Superion (G1)|Superion]] joined in. {{storylink|The Sum and Its Parts}} Chromia was taking part in the subsequent cleanup on Caminus when [[Devastator (G1)|Devastator]] arrived and started smashing more things. As the giant started trying to smash the spacebridge, Chromia rallied those present to fight him until Superion and [[Defensor (G1)|Defensor]] defeated him. {{storylink|Mistakes and Mayhem}} As Starscream returned to Cybertron, Chromia went with him to make sure no one started shooting. She was later back on Caminus when Menasor again went through the spacebridge and started fighting with the combiners already there. {{storylink|You, Me, and the Universe}} As a combiner incorporating Optimus joined the fight, Chromia led a group back through to Cybertron to help prevent the Decepticons there from attacking Caminus. {{storylink|All That Remains}}

[[File:AnUneventfulNight-ChromiaVsArcee.jpg|thumb|left|upright=1.66|''Prime'' Arcee vs. G1 Arcee.]]

Windblade and Chromia were returning to Cybertron through the spacebridge while Optimus communicated with [[Arcee (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Arcee]] on [[Earth]]. {{storylink|Now and On Earth}} To celebrate the union between Cybertron and Caminus, the Mistress of Flame declared an official holiday that saw Chromia temporarily don some Cityspeaker-style face paint for the occasion. While she was guarding the [[Enigma of Combination]] with a [[Badgeless]], Arcee stole the artifact. Chromia and Windblade pursued her into the [[Rust Sea|Sea of Rust]] where their confrontation was interrupted by the [[Torchbearer]]s. After the Torchbearers were merged into [[Victorion]], the trio fought to survive the giant's onslaught until Windblade managed to talk the giant into separating. Chromia later returned the Enigma and resumed guarding it. {{storylink|An Uneventful Night}}

She and Windblade interceded in a quarrel between visiting Camiens and Decepticons, though Chromia was a little too aggressive with the Decepticons. Windblade left her to finish sorting things out. She later joined Windblade, Ironhide, and Blurr for a trip to [[Velocitron]], where they found themselves in the path of [[Delta]], a city fleeing a wall of fire. {{storylink|Windblade vol. 2 issue 4|Windblade vol. 2 #4}} Chromia managed to encourage Ironhide into safely making it onto the city by staying by his side. She accompanied Windblade and [[Clocker (G1)|Clocker]] to inspect [[Navitas]], the Titan on which the city was built, and stood by as Windblade talked to the Titan directly. {{storylink|Race Against the Light}}

[[File:TheWillOfTheFew-secondchances.jpg|thumb|right|upright=1.66]]

When Windblade returned disappointed from [[Eukaris]] following the death of [[Chela]], Chromia believed she'd done her best to save the Titan. {{storylink|The Will of the Few}} Following the formation of the [[Council of Worlds]], Starscream declared [[Chosen One Day]], a new holiday. Windblade hugged Chromia and forgave her for past discretions...if only for a night. {{storylink|Choose Me}}

Chromia, Ironhide, and Windblade helped re-secure the spacebridge nexus after a gaggle of Decepticons stormed it. Chromia was present when Optimus Prime used the bridge to go to Earth and annex it in advance of [[Galvatron (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Galvatron]]'s invasion. {{storylink|Conquerors Part 4: Perihelion|Perihelion}} Shortly after taking this drastic step, Optimus had a nightmare where he saw Windblade and Chromia bowing down before him. {{storylink|All Hail Optimus Part 1: Once Upon a Time on Earth|Once Upon a Time on Earth}} The real Chromia, meanwhile, had gone off to attend an emergency Council meeting to discuss this problem. {{storylink|New Worlds Order}}

[[File:TheLineBetweenUs-ChromiaGoesToJail.jpg|thumb|left]]

The uneasy peace on Cybertron was growing increasingly threatened by the distrust of the Badgeless, and compounded by a spree of [[Mnemosurgery|mnemosurgical]] attacks on several Decepticons within Iacon, including a supplier of parts to [[Vigilem|Carcer]]. The Committee moved to have [[Ironhide (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Ironhide]] investigate the issue. When the meeting was adjourned, Chromia went off to spar with [[Strika (BM)|Strika]]. {{storylink|07:00:00}} Tensions boiled over after the suspicious death of [[Drunkatron|a disgruntled Decepticon]], and Chromia participated in a Council meeting that saw Ironhide step up as the new head of Cybertronian security. {{storylink|Applicable Skills}}

Shortly after [[Sentinel Prime (G1)|Sentinel Prime]] reawoke, Chromia was walking around in the Decepticon ghetto outside of Metroplex. {{storylink|The Last Autobot}} On learning that Windblade was being forced to help Starscream because he knew of Chromia's actions in bombing Acrolight, Chromia took over decoding security footage related to Swindle's death and discovered the Decepticon's body had been taken by Wheeljack and Rattrap. She visited Wheeljack, only for the pair of them to be taken prisoner by the rest of the Combaticons, who forced Wheeljack to lead them to Swindle's brain-dead body. {{storylink|Things We Said We'd Never Do}} After the Combaticons used the Enigma to merge into [[Bruticus (G1)|Bruticus]], Chromia worked with Windblade to talk the Combaticons down, however Ironhide took matters into his own hands and blasted Bruticus. In the aftermath, Chromia coopted [[Circuit (G1)|Circuit]]'s broadcast to make a public confession of her actions in Acrolight, and was arrested by Ironhide. {{storylink|The Line Between Us}}

Chromia being in prison was later one of the factors Windblade mentioned that had demoralized her. {{storylink|Ping}} When a fleet of undead Titans arrived to destroy Cybertron (as they do), Chromia was marched onto a prison ship when Starscream gave the evacuation order. She broke the prison line to speak to Ironhide about Metroplex being felled and urged him to help Windblade who was doubtlessly with the Titan. Ironhide said Windblade was at the [[Spire]] (and he was right) and there was no need to worry but Chromia was convinced that without Ironhide, Windblade would do something stupid (she was also right). {{storylink|Desperate Times}}

Said stupid thing turned out to be releasing [[Vigilem|Carcer]]. When the evil Titan made planetfall, Chromia rushed back to Ironhide to try and find Windblade, only for the irritable warden to grab her and stuff her in a prison cell to be killed by the undead. However, Metroplex managed to release her and direct her to Windblade's location with Carcer so she could free her friend. Chromia rushed to the Titan and scaled up his body, breaching his body and arriving at his [[brain module]] just as [[Elita One (G1)|Elita One]] had blown it into chunks, seemingly killing Windblade. {{storylink|Rubicon}}

Chromia was subsequently put back into prison and set to be tried for crimes against Cybertron. The [[Mistress of Flame]] attempted to get Starscream to turn Chromia over to her but when Starscream refused, she demanded Swindle and Menasor in exchange. The ghost of Bumblebee urged Starscream to hand over Chromia. Starscream instead opted to free Chromia and turn her into a hit-bot to hunt down and kill [[Liege Maximo]], offering her a pardon in exchange, as well as saying he'd lost his own chance to be better, telling Chromia not to waste hers. {{storylink|Heavy}} Starscream and [[Obsidian (BM)|Obsidian]] provided Chromia with the ''[[Sabre]]'', with [[Greenlight]] and [[Lancer]] as her crew, while the Camien herself recorded a goodbye message for Windblade, encouraging her friend to stay strong while she was away. {{storylink|The Chosen One}}

Shortly after setting out, however, the crew ran afoul of the [[Maximal]]s. Though they managed to triumph over their foes, the Maximals had damaged the ''Sabre''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s long range communication, leaving them unable to contact [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]]. {{storylink|Stranger Eons}}

When Liege Maximo returned to Cybertron as a prisoner of [[Shockwave (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Onyx Prime]], Windblade asked whether the bestial Prime had encountered Chromia or her team. Onyx chose to ignore the question and grill [[Soundwave (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Soundwave]] instead. {{storylink|The Falling, Chapter 2: Another Mine|Another Mine}}

When the ''Sabre'' finally repaired its communications, the crew had caught up with the [[Decepticon Vengeance Division]] facing off against [[Unicron/Generation 1|Unicron]] in [[G Nebula 89]]. Calling Cybertron, Chromia was quickly caught up on the recent political changes before she reported that, despite their incredible firepower, the Decepticons were failing to damage the Chaos Bringer. Unicron unleashing the Maximals on the Decepticons was enough incentive for Chromia to order a quantum jump back to Cybertron. {{storylink|Stranger Eons}}

The ''Sabre'' arrived back home to find Unicron had beaten them there and assumed a robot mode to attack the planet, while having warped the DVD into his service. Acting as a battlefield coordinator, Chromia tried to deter [[Elita One (G1)|Elita One]] from charging head-on to no success, the Carcerian confident in her plan. {{storylink|Our Finest}} As the [[Autobot fleet]] fell and Unicron began physically tearing into Cybertron, Windblade called upon the [[Spectral Knight]]s to use their [[magic]] to teleport Cybertron's populace to safety. Noticing this, Unicron returned his attention to the fleet, preventing them from reaching the magic before Elita One defiantly slammed Carcer into Unicron's face, distracting him just long enough for the magical ribbon to reach the fleet and teleport them to Earth. {{storylink|Road's End}} Safe on the organic world, Chromia reunited with Windblade, before Prowl arrived with information on Unicron's origins and inner workings.
As part of the do-or-die attack on Unicron, Chromia joined in the diversionary attack on the DVD. {{storylink|Assembly (Unicron)|Assembly}} When Optimus Prime had successfully used the [[Talisman (G1)|Talisman]] to collapse Unicron, Chromia pulled [[Centurion (IDW)|Centurion]] out of [[Trypticon (G1)|Trypticon]]'s burning corpse before Metroplex space bridged everyone back to Earth. {{storylink|Ceremony}}

Chromia was one of the mourners present at Optimus's funeral, {{storylink|Post}} before she invited [[Nautica (G1)|Nautica]] and [[Velocity (G1)|Velocity]] to Earth so they could catch up. {{storylink|How To Say Goodbye And Mean It: Part 2}}

===2019 IDW continuity===
The head of [[Security Operations]], mainly because Prowl was so unsociable, Chromia was called to [[Brainstorm (G1)|Brainstorm]]'s [[energon transmission station]] when the scientist was found to have been murdered. After getting statements from Windblade and [[Bumblebee (G1)|Bumblebee]], Chromia asked [[Rubble]], a newborn, to not consider the murder indicative of Cybertronian society. {{storylink|The World In Your Eyes Part Two}}

After [[Megatron (G1)|Megatron]] created the [[Ascenticon Guard]], with the notable inclusion of [[Quake (G1)|Quake]], Chromia briefed [[Senate|Senator]] [[Optimus Prime (G1)|Orion Pax]] on the actions of [[The Rise]] before [[Froid]] stole the Senator away for a private word. Chromia later made her way to Rubble's apartment, along with [[Geomotus]], so she could borrow Windblade. Before leaving, Chromia linked her and Prowl's communicators' to Rubble's but, much to Windblade's disapproval, added a tracer, albeit an inactive one in the code. {{storylink|The World In Your Eyes Part Three}}

As the trio made their way back into the wilderness, Windblade and Chromia compared stories about Brainstorm, trying to find something nice to say, before they ran across [[Cyclonus (G1)|Cyclonus]]. Though the veteran initially tried to avoid their questions, he revealed that he'd seen a blue Cybertronian near the transmission station on the night of the murder. Unsatisfied, Chromia gave him one cycle to present himself to [[Iacon (polity)|Iacon]] for further questioning. {{storylink|The World In Your Eyes Part Four}} As she drove back into Iacon, Chromia was hailed by [[Sideswipe (G1)|Sideswipe]] who revealed that, while several high ranking Rise members had gone into hiding, a total of ''two hundred'' Cybertronians had mysteriously dropped off the grid since the night of the murder. {{storylink|The World In Your Eyes Part Five}}

Tragedy soon struck again when Rubble was found dead in the [[Xeno-Quarter]] along with the missing [[Voin]] scavenger. Chromia largely kept to herself in the autopsy only speaking up to have [[Ratchet (G1)|Ratchet]] recite his analysis of Rubble's corpse. After seeing off [[Greenlight]], Chromia assured Prowl that Rubble's death was not his fault. {{storylink|The Cracks Beneath Your Feet Part One}}

:''[[Transformers: Generations#Thrilling 30|Generations: Thrilling 30]]'' Chromia is a heavy [[retool]] of ''[[Transformers: Prime (toyline)#Robots in Disguise|Prime: Robots in Disguise]]'' [[Arcee (WFC)#Robots in Disguise|Arcee]], transforming into a Cybertronian motorbike. Her blaster weapon can be mounted on the bottom of her bike mode. Originally scheduled for March 2014 along with [[Arcee (G1)/toys#Generations|Arcee]], Chromia was delayed to fall of that year and ultimately not released until December.

:Hasbro's [[:File:Generations Chromia stock photo edited.jpg|original stock photo for the figure]] depicting a hand-painted prototype (which is also featured on the back of the toy's packaging) showed her holding one of her [[wave]]-mate Arcee's guns along with her own. This was most certainly due to a mix-up error; the weapon's design, especially the size and shape of its handle and additional pegs (which are identical to those of Arcee's other weapon), make it very obvious that it was always intended to go with Arcee rather than Chromia. A [[:File:Generations Chromia Second Stock Photo.jpg|different version of the stock photo]] was released in November 2014 on the official ''Transformers'' Facebook page, with the extra gun edited out. Some specimens of Chromia also feature a sticker on the back of the packaging that says "Additional weapon not included."

:Due to the nature of her transformation, Chromia's paint is extremely prone to chipping, especially the white paint on her head. Caution and care is recommended when transforming her to avoid damaging her paint.

: The original version of this sculpt was also used to make [[BotCon 2014]] [[Flareup (G1)#BotCon2014|Flareup]], and was ''differently'' retooled to make ''[[Transformers: Prime (toyline)|Prime: Beast Hunters]]'' [[Arcee (WFC)#Beast Hunters|Arcee]]. This version of the mold served as the model for the non-toy ''[[Beast Wars: Uprising]]'' version of [[Blackarachnia (BW)#Beast Wars: Uprising|Blackarachnia]].

*'''Combiner Hunters''' (Multi-pack, 2015)
**''Accessories:'' Gun, Primeon Blade sword

:The ''Combiner Hunters'' [[redeco]] of Chromia not only has many of her coloring details changed, but in fact mostly stands out for its new accessory: a huge [[Primeon Blade]] sword. The tooling for this weapon was originally used for the 16"-tall electronic version of ''[[Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2015 toyline)|Robots in Disguise]]'' ''[[Titan Heroes]]'' [[Optimus Prime (WFC)/toys#ETitan|Optimus Prime]].

:This version of Chromia was only available in a ''[[Combiner Wars (toyline)|Combiner Wars]]'' [[giftset|gift set]] together with ''Combiner Hunters'' redecos of ''Generations'' [[Arcee (G1)/toys#Combiner Wars|Arcee]] and [[Windblade (G1)#Combiner Wars|Windblade]], each with their own giant new melee weapons. In the U.S., this set was [[exclusive]] to the [[Hasbro Toy Shop]] website and the Hasbro Toy Shop booth at [[San Diego Comic-Con]] 2015. In Asia, it was also available at Animation-Comic-Game Hong Kong 2015 and subsequently stocked by Toys"R"Us Hong Kong. Later, it was also available at The Falcon's Hangar booth at Singapore Toy, Game & Comic Convention 2015.

**''ID number:'' '''WFC-S20'''
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''SG-22'''
**''Japanese release date:'' '''[[May 31]], 2019'''
**''Accessories:'' "RT-5 Anti-thermo Blaster," "SR Hushfuze," and 2 "EMP-Grenades"
:Part of the second wave of ''[[War for Cybertron: Siege (toyline)|Siege]]'' Deluxe Class figures, Chromia transforms into a Cybertronian car. She includes the "RT-5 Anti-thermo Blaster," a gun compatible with the [[C.O.M.B.A.T. System]]. Two "EMP-Grenades" can connect to the barrel, and the "SR Hushfuze" scope can be detached and can extend the barrel as well, allowing you to change the length of the barrel and/or scope. The grenades can also attach to the back of the vehicle, as if they are big exhaust pipes. As with all non-gimmick ''Siege'' figures, Chromia features "battle damage" paint applications on her vehicle mode front. She also features multiple hardpoints all over herself and her weapon to accommodate "Fire Blasts" from the [[Battle Master]]s assortment, which can be used to simulate blaster fire or explosions.

:Despite ''looking'' similar to [[Moonracer (G1)#Toys|Moonracer]]/[[Firestar (G1)#Toys|Novastar]]'s toy from ''[[Power of the Primes (toyline)|Power of the Primes]]'', she is a new mold, transforms differently, and cannot transform into a limb for a ''[[Combiner Wars (toyline)|Combiner Wars]]''-style combiner.

:In a rather amusing design flaw, moving both her hips together at an angle may pop off her crotch piece.

:This mold is later used to make [[Nightbird (G1)#Generations|Nightbird]].

: Part of the fifth assortment of ''[[Tiny Titans]]'' [[blindpacking|blindpacks]], this version of Chromia is a very small, soft-plastic figure of her in robot mode, based mainly on the original animation model.

: She includes a collectible card that renders her in the [[Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2015 franchise)|2015 ''Robots in Disguise'']] styling.

==Notes==
[[File:Chromia-Sarah Stone-WindbladeV1.jpg|thumb|upright=1.0]]
*Though other female Transformers may be more well known, Chromia holds the distinction of being the first female Transformer to appear in ANY media. She's the first of the Female Autobots to appear on screen in "The Search for Alpha Trion".
*Though the first to appear in any media, [[Minerva (Masterforce human)|Minerva]] was the first female Autobot to receive a toy, and [[Freezon]] the first female Transformer to receive one (though due to a retcon). That being said, Chromia finally did get a toy as a Botcon exclusive 20 years after her debut, and a mass-released figure in the ''Generations'' line 29 years after her debut.

'''[[Optimus Prime (Movie)|Optimus Prime]]''' starred in a film series that made billions of dollars. Woohoo!

==Transformers (2007)==
As a tribute to his immense popularity, Optimus Prime is the only ''Movie'' Transformer with a toy in every regular category (Legend, Fast Action, Deluxe, Voyager, and Leader).

===Legends Class toys===
[[File:Movie Legends Prime toy.jpg|upright=1.66|thumb|Shortening the smokestacks is good; [[For safety reasons|it makes the toy safer]]. But removing ONE and keeping the other? Crazy.]]
*'''Optimus Prime''' (Legends, 2007)
**''Japanese name:'' '''EZ Collection Optimus Prime'''

: Legends class Optimus Prime is an ''extremely'' simplified toy of the extremely complex movie design. 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.

He comes with a predominantly black and silver redeco of [[Starscream (Movie)/toys#Allspark2pack|Starscream]]. The robot mode is mistransformed: his body is not collapsed down to the waist.

:In Asia, at least some units (often separated from Starscream) got dumped to Hobby Shop dealers and were sold at a lower price.

[[File:Movie ProtoformOptimusPrime toy.jpg|upright=1.66|thumb|Until I find my feet, I have to use these giant robot hands.]]
*'''Protoform Optimus Prime''' (Deluxe Class, 2007)
**''Japanese 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]]. 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]].

:An extensive redeco of the Protoform Optimus Prime mold that was exclusively available at the Japanese C3xHobby Convention in August of 2007, and later offered by [[e-HOBBY]] in limited quantities. Most of the body is made out of transparent turquoise plastic in order to mimic its frozen state in the "coldness" of space, while orange paint is used on the front end of the "entry" mode, mimicking the heat effects of sudden atmospheric entry. The flame attachment is made out of clear ''blue'' plastic, with the tail end being covered in ''gold'' paint.

[[File:Movie Voyager OptimusPrime toy.jpg|upright=1.66|thumb|The last one of you out of here gets a... gets a lead salad!]]
*'''Optimus Prime''' (Voyager Class, 2007)
**''Japanese Name'': '''Twin Blaster Optimus Prime'''
**''Japanese Release Date'': [[2007]]-[[August|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.

*'''Robo-Vision Optimus Prime''' (Voyager, 2007)
**''Accessories:'' 2 rifle/smokestack-fuel tank assemblies, 2 missiles

: 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.

*'''First Strike Optimus Prime''' (Voyager Class, 2008)

: 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 scheme]], 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. You can't have your cake and eat it too, folks.

Although the assortment number and the general packaging style (which are both the same also used for the [[Premium Series]] redecos of Voyager Class [[Ratchet (Movie)/toys#Premium|Autobot Ratchet]] and [[Megatron (Movie)/toys#VoyagerPremium|Megatron]]) seemed to indicate that this might be a Best Buy exclusive, it was later confirmed to be an "international market" exclusive.

As such, the toy has very few visual differences from the regular release of the sculpt, in a "doing things differently to achieve a very similar end result" sense.

*'''Optimus Prime''' (Leader Class, 2007)
**''Japanese 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!

In fact, he resembles the original [[Diaclone]] Powered Convoy color scheme of ''Generation 1'' [[Ultra Magnus (G1)/toys|Ultra Magnus]]'s truck cab. The previously blue and red flames have been replaced with silver flames, while various other decos have been replaced by copper.

:This version was released in the UK several months before the ''AllSpark Power'' version. Available exclusively through Argos stores, it came in an American-style box with the original Movie packaging design. This version was also released by [[TakaraTomy]] in Japan.

:The second Nightwatch Optimus Prime was released as part of the "[[AllSpark Power]]" second half of the Movie line. He is similar to the UK version of Nightwatch Prime, replacing most of his red and blue with different shades of blue and black, retaining his resemblance to Diaclone Powered Convoy in most respects. However, the subdued black and copper on the first Nightwatch Prime have been replaced with gold and a ''very'' bright blue, to signify the All Spark energy affecting the Transformers. The translucent parts were also cast in purple translucent plastic instead of black translucent plastic.

*'''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.

[[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.

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 [[Movie (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.

:''[[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]].

[[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 version of Leader-class Optimus Prime features a new lower face sculpt that lacks a [[faceplate]], as well as the replacement of his fuel tank/exhaust assemblies with new, transforming versions that can combine into his ion blaster/barrage cannon. To the simultaneous pleasure and displeasure of people who had already purchased the first release of Leader-class ''Revenge of the Fallen'' Optimus Prime, Buster Optimus Prime features an extensive paint job that closely matches Prime's appearance on the big screen, including covering almost all of his grey plastic with silver paint or chrome, expanding and outlining all of the flame tampographs white for greater accuracy to [[Industrial Light & Magic|ILM]]'s computer model, and generally painting in small details, nooks and crannies that were neglected on the first release due to cost-cutting reasons. The red and blue plastic colors also vary from the original release, to better match his film appearance.

:As with Optimus Prime Black Version, Buster Optimus Prime uses the improved instructions.

[[File:ROTF-JetpowerOptimusPrime2Pack-CombinedMode.jpg|thumb|left|upright=1.4]]

: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]].

*'''Battle Blades Optimus Prime''' (Voyager, 2010)
**''Japanese 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.

: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. 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, 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.

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.

*'''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.

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.

*'''Optimus Prime''' / '''Includes Deluxe Class Comettor''' (Multi-pack, 2011)
**''Accessories:'' Matrix of Leadership, 2 fuel tank gun assemblies, removable Battle Hooks

:This [[Walmart]]-[[exclusive]] redeco and retool of the [[Transformers (2010 toyline)|2010 ''Transformers'' toyline]] [[#Voyager Class toys 3|"Battle Blades" Optimus Prime toy]] features the Japanese release's hooks (instead of swords), plus an all-new [[mouthplate]]-less, mouthed face. As part of the set's lunar theme, reflections of stars are painted across his vehicle mode sides and on his windshield, with a sharp reflection of [[Earth]]'s [[Moon (moon)|Moon]] in one of his windows. This time, his [[Matrix of Leadership]] is cast in orange plastic.

:This exclusive has a peculiar and common error in that the arm hooks' hubs stick out farther than they should, causing a gap that runs down the middle of the cab's nose in vehicle mode.

:This Optimus Prime cannot tow the [[Armored Weapons Platform#Voyager Class toys|Mechtech trailer]], as the original mold has no trailer hitch to begin with.

:Optimus comes with a "bonus value" Deluxe Class toy, [[Comettor (DOTM)|Comettor]]. The pair together cost a dollar less than a regular Voyager Class toy. It was also available at Galeria Kaufhof department stores in Germany, with Comettor ''not'' highlighted as a "bonus" figure.

:In [[Australia]], this release was available at [[Kmart]] for a considerably lower price than a regular Voyager Class toy.

:Fireburst Optimus Prime is a redeco of the standard ''Dark of the Moon'' Voyager Class Optimus Prime, sporting a darker shade of blue and a "burning" color scheme that includes replacing all translucent blue parts with translucent orange. Because of this, his light-piping eyes were neutered by opaque light blue paint.

: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.

*'''Striker Optimus''' (MechTech Leader, [[November 17]] 2011)
**''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 [[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.

: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.

: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.

:[[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.

**''Kreons'': Optimus Prime, Bluestreak, Skywarp, two Stunt Drivers
**''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.

: 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.

: 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?

: Unfortunately, the Mini-Con Combiners apparently never saw release anywhere.

Included is the trailer originally available with the ''Chronicle'' release. The trailer holds up to seven MechTech or similar 5mm peg accessories. Four holes are located on the top-front end of the trailer, with another three inside. The door also folds down to become a ramp, and the inside of the trailer is big enough for several Legion or Commander Cyberverse toys, or one smaller-end Deluxe figure. Two [[C joint]] bars also run along the bottom of both sides.

:Unlike both the Walmart exclusive Deluxe figure and the Japanese release, no weapon accessories are included.

He shares a similar (not identical) transformation with his fellow One-Step changer, Hound. Also, due to his transformation scheme, his shoulders can be pushed forward (the arms is pushed on the same time), which also allows him to wield a close ranged weapons with longer handles with both hands.

*'''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 [[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.

**''Accessories:'' Sword
:A redeco of the ''Dark of the Moon'' Deluxe Class toy, this Optimus Prime has large portions of his body, mostly his truck parts, vacuum metalized silver, and his light-piped eyes were neutered by blue paint. 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, most of the remaining stock is available in some hobby shops and some video stores like Speedy Video.

**''Japanese ID number:'' '''AD02'''
**''Japanese release date:'' '''2014-[[May 17|05-17]]'''
**''Accessories:'' Ion cannon, projectile/nozzle

:Part of the first wave of ''Age of Extinction: [[Transformers: Generations|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.

:The faceplated version of the mold was used to make [[Nemesis Prime (AOE)#Toys|Nemesis Prime]].

**''Japanese ID number:'' '''AD01'''

**''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...

**''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 Chomp & Stomp 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.

:Like the First Edition figure, Battle Command Optimus Prime's truck kibble can be detached from the robot mode figure to form his separate vehicle mode on its own, but there is '''one''' single sacrifice is needed to be made, so brace yourselves: you need to ''actually trim off the wires that activate its lights & sound gimmick in order to separate the kibble from the robot'', and unless you had intention for buying a second copy, good luck if you wanna risk your hard-earned cash for that.

:This Optimus Prime can tow the [[Armored_Weapons_Platform#Voyager_Class_toys|Mechtech Trailer]], though it lets the wheels lift off the ground.

He also features a Japanese language sound box for his voice gimmick, replacing Peter Cullen's "I am Optimus Prime" voice line.

He also retains his pair of Energon Swords and Hooks, and his Knuckle piece. He also retains the fuel tanks that can combine to form his ion blaster. In terms of deco, he features a darker plastic color and paint (which resulted in a two-tone shades of silver & gunmetal), which is meant to go with this line's Jetfire.

*'''Optimus Prime''' ([[2017]])
**''ID number:'' '''MPM-4'''
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''MPM-4'''
**''Japanese release date:'' '''[[September 16]], 2017'''
**''Accessories'': Ion Cannon, 2 Energy Swords, 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|ROTF 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 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 fifth wheel in vehicle mode.

: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.

:This Optimus Prime is a ''minor'' redeco of the One-Step Changer figure, ''omitting'' the paint apps on the knees, the flames on his shoulders, and changing the robot mode chest's deco. Along with his wavemate Bumblebee, Optimus Prime loses his pin on his leg, which is used to activate Stomp & Chomp Grimlock's pop-out weapons and gimmicks. As with the first wave of the Turbo Changers, Optimus features a nearly invisible tampograph on his vehicle front, which can be revealed with [[Dragonstorm#MegaTurboChanger|Mega Turbo Changer Dragonstorm's]] UV-powered Cyberfire gimmick.

:In 2019, the toy was given away free for the school kids who attended the [https://art.parco.jp/parcomuseum/detail/?id=168 ”The World Of Transformers” Exhibition] held at the Parco Museum in Ikebukuro from March 15th to Monday, April 1st, 2019.

: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.

:This Optimus Prime ''can'' tow the [[Armored_Weapons_Platform#Voyager_Class_toys|Mechtech Trailer]], though he 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.

:The ''San Diego Comic-Con 2017'' exclusive Optimus Prime figure is another redeco of the ''Premier Edition'' figure, which aims for a more movie accurate look than the original by still sharing the same paint masks, but replacing the chest's deco with flames and adding extra paint applications on the legs, arms, chest, head, tire rims, both sides of the engine compartment, and the sword and shield... but for some reason still sports the movie-inaccurate blue 'collar', as well as the smaller, less accurate vehicle flame tampographs instead of the more movie-accurate ones used on Dark Optimus Prime. 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.).

**''Accessories'': Sword of Judgement, Vector Shield

:This Optimus Prime is a somewhat/nearly screen-accurate redeco of the Leader Class figure, but uses the original Leader mold instead of the Armor Knight retool unfortunately. In comparison to the first ''Age of Extinction'' Leader Class figure, his vacuum-metalized front truck bumper, sun visors, robot mode chest, smokestacks and side tanks chest was omitted, revealing the grey plastic underneath. His chromed chest was also stripped of chrome for adding paint operations, his shield was unpainted, and both of his sword and truck mode windows were casted in colorless plastic. He also features some extra silver paint on his robot mode forehead, and his white-colored Autobot insignia is slightly tampographed on the left. And lastly, his light-piping eyes is neutered by blue paint.

*'''Calibur Optimus Prime''' (Leader Class, 2017-[[July 15|07-15]])
**''Japanese ID Number'': '''TLK-15'''
**''Accessories'': Temenos Sword, Calibur Axe, Overshield/Fifth Wheel Hitch, Energon Sword (limited edition)

:Calibur Optimus Prime is a retool of the Armor Knight Optimus Prime figure, who is a retool of the original ''Age of Extinction'' Leader Class figure, with the fifth wheel hitch now forming his handheld shield based on the one used in [[Transformers: Dark of the Moon (film)|Dark of the Moon]], which results in a backpack-less robot mode and an additional [[partsformer|partsforming]] gimmick to boot, although the shield still can be converted into a backpack like the original Leader Class mold do. He also comes with an axe based on the one used in the third film.

:The initial release of the figure comes with a limited edition Energon Sword. According to [https://www.amazon.co.jp/%E3%82%BF%E3%82%AB%E3%83%A9%E3%83%88%E3%83%9F%E3%83%BC-%E3%83%88%E3%83%A9%E3%83%B3%E3%82%B9%E3%83%95%E3%82%A9%E3%83%BC%E3%83%9E%E3%83%BC-TLK-15-%E3%82%AD%E3%83%A3%E3%83%AA%E3%83%90%E3%83%BC%E3%82%AA%E3%83%97%E3%83%86%E3%82%A3%E3%83%9E%E3%82%B9%E3%83%97%E3%83%A9%E3%82%A4%E3%83%A0/dp/B072FVY1SX/ref=sr_1_fkmr0_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1498192402&sr=8-2-fkmr0&keywords=TLK+optimus#productDetails Amazon Japan's page], the included Energon Sword & Axe is also compatible with ''Movie the Best'' MB-11 Optimus Prime figure (seen above), which basically makes Calibur Optimus Prime a weapon expansion pack for said figure.

: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 is later redecoed into "Bronze Caliber Axe", as a giveaway accessory for the 3rd ''The Last Knight Final Battle Campaign'' in Japan.

: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. A few months after the 2-pack's release, ''Tribute'' Optimus Prime & Orion Pax saw worldwide release through [[Amazon (website)|Amazon]], including an Amazon Japan listing bearing a ''The Last Knight'' ID number.

**''ID number'': '''05'''
**''Japanese ID number'': '''SS-05'''
**''Japanese release date'': '''[[April 28]], 2018'''
**''Accessories'': Two [[Dual Energon Swords | Energon Sword]]s, "Forest Battle" backdrop
:''[[Studio Series]]'' Optimus Prime is an all-new Voyager Class mold that 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 climatic 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. All releases of this mold cannot tow the [[Armored_Weapons_Platform#Voyager_Class_toys|Mechtech Trailer]], as the trailer hitch is too far than normal. This mold cannot combine with [[Jetfire_(Movie)#Generations|Jetfire]], although it can be achieved with some [[Fan mode|fiddling]].

: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. This was later found as a variant at least [http://news.tfw2005.com/2018/05/07/transformers-studio-series-optimus-prime-faceplate-less-variant-images-363449 once]. 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's stock photo of the robot mode is mistransformed on the right elbow: His forearm is bent ''back'' instead of the front.

**''ID number'': '''32'''
**''Japanese ID number'': '''SS-25'''
**''Japanese release date'': '''[[March 23]], 2019'''
**''Accessories'': [[Ion blaster]], "Highway Showdown" backdrop
:Released to commemorate the 10th anniversary of ''[[Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (film)|Revenge of the Fallen]]'', the ''Studio Series'' Optimus Prime is an extensive retool of the figure above, featuring many new parts, namely a new backpack, chest piece, 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.

: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. His Ion Blaster cannot be wielded by the first mold either, thanks to his narrow 5mm compatible hands. He also comes with a cardboard backdrop display depicting the highway fight with [[Bonecrusher (Movie)|Bonecrusher]] from the first ''Transformers'' film.

: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.

: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.

**''Accessories'': Ion blaster, "[[Golden Gate Bridge|San Francisco Bridge]]" backdrop
:The third ''Studio Series'' Optimus Prime is an all-new mold 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. As an unadvertised feature, the Ion Blaster can be stored underneath the rear legs in truck mode. Note that this feature was not intended by the designers and is completely fan-made.

:While his truck mode scales with most of the ''Studio Series'' brethren, Optimus' 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' 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 (combined with a tight joint) and with the pressure applying downwards while standing.

:The silver panels on the sides of his truck mode are prone to paint scratching as a result of transformation

:This Optimus Prime cannot tow the [[Armored_Weapons_Platform#Voyager_Class_toys|Mechtech Trailer]] due to the distant hitch port, though it can be hooked with the truck's cavity.

: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. Those looking to combine this figure with his fellow Leader Class Autobot, [[Jetfire_(Movie)#Studio_Series|Jetfire]], will be pleased to know that Jetfire comes packaged with a replacement, ''Revenge of the Fallen''-accurate abdomen piece in a not-quite matching metallic red, suitable for tummy armor attachment.

: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.

: 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.

Optimus' truck mode can also be attached with the Energon Igniters core, and due to the toy being lightweight, it can propel his vehicle mode forward very quickly, making him a fast-moving truck.

:Due to its simplified transformation, Optimus' robot shoulder parts ended up sticking out from his truck mode, and his upper cabin panel ends up being integrated with his head.

:''Dropkick is a [[Decepticon]] and also a bunch of mass-produced [[Drone Unit (Movie)|drones]] used by both sides from the [[live-action film series]] [[continuity family]].''

[[File:BumblebeeMovie Dropkick.jpg|thumb|250px|This planet is too loud. I'm hungry. I wish I was on Cybertron playing simultronics. My feet hurt.]]

'''Dropkick''' really doesn't like being on [[Earth]], but [[Shatter]] made him come. If he had his way, he'd be back on [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]] right now, sitting alone in the dark and feeling angry. He doesn't really "get" why folks are so interested in the [[AllSpark]] or why the [[Autobot]]s like [[Bumblebee (Movie)|Bumblebee]] are making things so hard for him, and he thinks having to pretend to work with [[Sector Seven|the humans]] is humiliating... but at least once the [[Decepticon]]s get what they want, he'll have plenty of things to blow up and humans to liquefy.

==Fiction==
===Movies===
{{note|The six movies are the primary component of the live-action movie continuity family. Their events should be taken as canon for all other pieces of fiction listed below, unless otherwise specified.}}
====''Bumblebee'' film====
{{voiceactor|[[Justin Theroux]] (English), [[Daiki Hamano]] (Japanese)|[[Simone D'Andrea]] (Italian)}}

[[File:ShatterDropkickhologram.jpg|thumb|300px|Ha! Suck it [[Prowl (Movie)|Prowl]]! I got to be in a movie before you!]]
Dropkick was among the Decepticons under the command of [[Shockwave (Movie)|Shockwave]] and [[Soundwave (ROTF)|Soundwave]] in their conquest for [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]] in [[Megatron (Movie)|Megatron]]'s absence. After [[Optimus Prime (Movie)|Optimus Prime]] was attacked by [[Ravage (ROTF)|Ravage]], Dropkick and the other Decepticons closed in to attack the Autobot leader. Following the apparent failure of the Autobot resistance effort, Dropkick was paired with [[Shatter]] and the two began hunting Autobots who escaped the planet.

By [[1987]], Dropkick assisted Shatter in following Autobot lieutenant [[Cliffjumper (Movie)|Cliffjumper]] to one of [[Saturn]]'s moons, where they tortured him in an attempt to learn the whereabouts of Optimus Prime. Though the Autobot refused to co-operate, they received a signal from Autobot scout [[Bumblebee (Movie)|B-127]] on the nearby planet [[Earth]], prompting the pair to change course for the planet, but not before Dropkick vertically bisected Cliffjumper, killing him instantaneously.

Upon their arrival near a trailer park, Dropkick acquired a muscle car [[alternate mode]] and killed [[Roy (BB)|a random human]], expressing his disappointment with the primitive indigenous species yet taking pleasure in how they "popped." The two then headed towards the West Coast in the direction of B-127's signal, with Dropkick picking up a {{w|Bell AH-1 SuperCobra}} alt mode whilst driving through Texas. They were then intercepted by Agent [[Jack Burns]] and his team of [[Sector Seven]] agents, accompanied by [[Dr. Powell]]. Dropkick wanted to dispose of the humans when Shatter came up with the idea of them masquerading as a "Decepticon peacekeeping patrol" pursuing the "dangerous escaped criminal" B-127, which he begrudgingly went along with. The Decepticons were escorted to a Sector Seven outpost and given limited access to their satellites, thus creating [[Internet|a global system of interconnected computer networks]] to track B-127.

[[File:BBmov-DropkickEntangled.jpg|left|thumb|300px|''SOME. DAY. Love will find you! BREAK. THOSE. Chains that bi-'' oh.]]

A brief [[Energon]] surge in [[California]] attracted the Decepticons' attention, and they accompanied Sector Seven in capturing B-127, now calling himself "Bumblebee". Dropkick tortured Bumblebee to find out Prime's location, when he accidentally triggered a video message from the Autobot leader revealing his plans to retreat to Earth from Cybertron. Before departing to inform their comrades on Cybertron of this information via a radio tower at a nearby harbor, Dropkick killed Powell (who overheard their conversation and informed Burns of the Decepticons' true colors) and left the critically injured Bumblebee for dead.

While Shatter was busy transmitting the message to Cybertron, Bumblebee appeared and opened fire on the radio tower, provoking Dropkick to engage the scout. During their fight, Bumblebee's [[Charlie Watson|human friend]] sneaked her way towards the radio tower. Once Bumblebee gained the upper hand, Dropkick assumed his helicopter mode only for his propeller to become ensnared in a discarded chain wielded by Bumblebee. Dropkick transformed into robot mode in a failed attempt to escape, which forced the chain to wind under his armor as his parts shifted between modes. He mocked Bumblebee's "little chains", but before he could finish the sentence, the Autobot yanked the chain ''hard'', dismembering him and rupturing his internals, causing him to explode. {{storylink|Bumblebee (film)|Bumblebee}}
{{note|Dropkick's involvement in the preceding events, or events mostly similar, were also chronicled in the novel "[[Transformers: Bumblebee: The Junior Novel]]".}}

===Titan movie comic===
{{notetitantlg}}
[[Image:Titan9_Dropkick.JPG|right|200px|thumb|In Soviet Russia, You want Dropkick. Here, DROPKICK WANTS '''YOU'''!]]

Dropkick was Megatron's right-hand man in the occupation of [[Earth]]. The other Decepticons heard Megatron's orders through him. {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 9|Twilight's Last Gleaming, Part: 1}}

Having gone ''way'' down in the world after Starscream seized command, he ended up acting as "escort" to ensure [[Bumblebee (Movie)|Bumblebee]] would leave human areas. In a final "up yours", Bumblebee led Dropkick in a high-speed chase which saw the Decepticon damaged and humiliated. {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 23|Revolution Part 1}}

===IDW movie comics===
[[File:Dropkickincineratorscanningalliance3.jpeg|thumb|upright=1.5|left|It looks like he's scanning that truck. But he's actually crying all over it.]]
[[Soundwave (ROTF)|Soundwave]] dispatched Dropkick and [[Incinerator (Movie)|Incinerator]] to [[Florida]], where they completely destroyed an American military base before scanning suitable Earth forms. {{storylink|Alliance issue 3|Alliance #3}} Their victory was short-lived, as soon afterwards, the [[Autobot|Autobots]] and their [[human]] allies tracked the Decepticons down and systematically destroyed them one by one. Dropkick was defeated by [[Optimus Prime (Movie)|Optimus Prime]] and was finished off by [[NEST]] soldiers. {{storylink|Alliance issue 4|Alliance #4}}

===''The Veiled Threat''===
{{Note|The events of ''The Veiled Threat'' take place during [[IDW Publishing]]'s ''[[Transformers: Alliance|Alliance]]'' comic.}}
Dropkick was one of a number of Decepticons who responded to [[Starscream (Movie)|Starscream]]'s signal and came to Earth. He admired the alternate form he'd chosen for its primitive elegance. After Starscream enlisted the help of the [[Human Accessory Force]], Dropkick helped them raid a [[Zambia]]n dam construction site, confronting [[Ghiwa|Major Ghiwa]], whom he was disappointed to realize was not armed, and therefore not much sport. He tried to do a trick with a piece of fencing to entrap the Major, but it didn't work as he'd hoped.

When Autobots responded to the Decepticon activities, Dropkick, [[Macerator (ROTF)|Macerator]] and [[Payload (Movie)|Payload]] lured them into the Zambezi River. Dropkick attempted to keep Ratchet distracted as they were pulled downstream towards Victoria Falls, but the plan didn't work as well as hoped, and he retreated with a damaged arm. The Decepticon trio next went to cause havoc at Kariba dam. The Autobots, however, followed them. Optimus rammed Macerator and Dropkick, the latter of whom found himself wrestling with [[Ironhide (Movie)|Ironhide]]. After Macerator was terminated by Optimus, and Payload was lost in the waters released from the dam, Starscream ordered Dropkick to retreat. Dropkick fled, though not without being stung by [[Kaminari Ishihara]]'s [[Electromagnetic pulse|EMP]] gun. {{storylink|Transformers: The Veiled Threat|The Veiled Threat}}

==Games==
===''Transformers: The Game'' (console)===
[[Image:Dropkick-gamedrone.jpg|thumb|right|120px|Hey, who let this guy have a new name?! What the hell?]]
Hordes of identical Dropkick units are used by both the Autobot and Decepticon armies. Decepticons are blue like Blowpipe with a lens-face, while Autobot versions are red like Salvage and have a facemask with individual optics. They are protected from most artillery by energy shields in robot mode ([[Blackout (Movie)|Blackout's]] EMP bombs can penetrate the shields & damages them easily), and are fond of throwing stuff at foes rather than getting in with melee attacks.

Dropkicks are most commonly found in [[Tranquility|urban missions]], but pop up for certain sub-missions in other areas as well. {{Storylink|Transformers The Game (console)}}

===''Battle for the Allspark''===
{{note|Dropkick was used as the basis for a chassis available to players as their combatant for the ''Battle for the Allspark'' game. Units using this body came in two variations. Autobot-aligned units had a helmet and facemask that vaguely resembled Optimus Prime, while the Decepticon-aligned units had the single-lens design seen in other film-related media.}}
[[Image:Dropkick head.jpg|thumb|left|Dropkick units can be either Autobot (top) or Decepticon (bottom). Both feel nobody understands them.]]
Dropkick units had equal Attack & Speed abilities with a strong Defense skill. {{Storylink|Battle for the Allspark}}

===''Transformers: Rise of the Dark Spark'' (3DS)===
{{Note|Dropkick appears in the [[Transformers: Rise of the Dark Spark (3DS)|Rise of the Dark Spark]] game for Nintendo 3DS as support a unit. Equipping him allows all Earth Mercenaries with the Ranged Attack ability to deal double damage.}}

==Toys==
===Transformers (2007)===
[[Image:Movie2007_Dropkick_toy.jpg|upright=1.66||thumb|His Decepticon symbol can be seen from space.]]
*'''Dropkick''' (Deluxe, 2007)
**''Accessories:'' Claw/plier weapon
**''Japanese ID number'': '''MD-18'''

: Dropkick transforms into a customized {{w|Chevrolet Silverado}} pickup truck (or a similar model just different enough to avoid paying a licensing fee). His hood and roof feature a fairly cleverly done gigantic Decepticon symbol. His flatbed cover conceals a giant claw/plier deployed from the tailgate by a sliding knob on top. This assembly becomes a hand-held weapon for his robot mode. He also has (non-firing) twin blasters on the underside of each forearm in robot mode.

: Unlike most of the other "drone" toys, Dropkick does not use the Decepticon "lens-face", instead going with a new, more complicated face design with a visor. (It is ''not'' the Autobot face from the game, but it is similar.)

:This mold was later [[redeco]]ed as the Autobot [[Salvage (Movie)|Salvage]] and ''[[Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (toyline)|Revenge of the Fallen]]'' [[Blowpipe (ROTF)|Blowpipe]].

===Bumblebee===
[[File:EnergonIgnitersPowerDropkick.jpg|upright=1.66|thumb| All right, who honestly expected me to come back?]]
*'''Dropkick''' (Power Series, 2018)
:Standing at approximately 5-inches, ''[[Transformers: Bumblebee (toyline)|Bumblebee]]'' Energon Igniters Power Dropkick transforms into a blue and black muscle car loosely based on the first generation Chevrolet Camaro (rather than the AMC Javelin mode he has in the film). As with other Power Series figures, he can interact with the Cores of larger Energon Igniters toys. Note that his stock photography is slightly mistransformed, with the arms not completely tabbed in for vehicle mode.

:This mold was also used for the simultaneously released [[Hot Rod (DOTM)#Bumblebee|Energon Igniters Power Hot Rod]] and was later retooled into [[Shatter#Energon Igniters|Shatter]].

{{-}}{{anchor|Nitro}}
*'''Dropkick''' (Nitro Series, [[2019]])
[[File:Bumblebee-Energon-Igniters-Nitro-Dropkick.jpg|thumb|300px]]
:''Bumblebee'' Energon Igniters Nitro Dropkick is an all new, approximately Voyager Class-sized mold that transforms into an attack helicopter. Like other Energon Igniters, he comes with a core that he can interact with, as well as being able to interact with the cores that come with other figures in the line.

===Generations===
====Studio Series====
[[File:Studio-Series-MV6-Deluxe-Dropkick.jpg|thumb|300px|The ''Blue Thunder/Transformers'' crossover we never thought we’d get.]]
*'''Dropkick''' (Deluxe Class, 2018)
**''ID number:'' '''22'''
**''Japanese ID number'': '''SS-28'''
**''Japanese release date'': '''[[March 23]], 2019'''
**''Accessories:'' Two guns, "Aerial Dogfight" backdrop

:Part of the fourth wave of ''[[Studio Series]]'' Deluxes, Dropkick transforms from an officially-licensed {{w|Bell AH-1 SuperCobra}} attack helicopter to robot and back! Similar to [[Drift (AOE)#Toys|his fellow]] [[Shatter#Toys|triple changers]], he only transforms into ''two'' of his three modes. Dropkick's robot mode has knee accents to imitate car taillights and back "wings" to imitate car doors, but otherwise his car kibble in robot mode is missing, making this one of the less screen-accurate ''Studio Series'' toys. This could be one of the possible reasons for this toy becoming a Studio Series [[shelfwarmer]]. The figure comes with two guns and a cardboard backdrop display depicting an aerial dogfight scene from ''Bumblebee''.

:A post on his right arm prevents his tail kibble from folding as flat as on the other arm in robot mode.

:This figure was ''extensively'' retooled into ''Studio Series'' [[Drift (AOE)#SS45|Drift]].

{{-}}{{anchor|SS46}}
[[File:Studio-Series-46-MVBB-Deluxe-Dropkick-car.jpg|thumb|300px|"Am I blanchin, girl we blanchin."]]
*'''Dropkick''' (Deluxe Class, 2019)
**''ID number:'' '''46'''
**''Japanese name:'' '''Dropkick 2'''
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''SS-36'''
**''Japanese release date:'' '''[[August 31]], 2019'''
**''Accessories:'' Liquification gun, "Decepticon Arrival" backdrop

:Released in the seventh wave of ''Studio Series'', this version of Dropkick transforms into his 1973 AMC Javelin muscle car alternate mode in 26 steps. His robot mode is based on his initial appearance in the film, where he had only a car mode after arriving on Earth. He comes with the gun he uses to liquefy humans in the film and a cardboard backdrop display of his and Shatter's arrival.

:It has been reported on multiple copies that due to a molding error on the mushroom peg, his right thigh swivel is difficult and in some instances, downright impossible to be used without popping his right leg off from the loose ball joint.

====Movie Edition====
[[File:Movie-Edition-Tiny-Turbo-Changers-Series-4-Dropkick.jpg|thumb|300px| He really wanted to become a Tiny Triple Changer, but turned even bluer upon hearing he was mistaken.]]
*'''Dropkick''' (Tiny Turbo Changer, 2018)
**''Series'' '''4'''
**''Bag Code'': '''D'''
:Released in Series 4 of [[Tiny Turbo Changers]], Dropkick is a blue redeco of the Series 2 [[Cogman#Toys|Cogman]] figure, changing from robot to an unlicensed approximation of an Aston Martin DB11 in a few steps.

{{-}}{{anchor|ChopperTTC}}
*'''Chopper Mode Dropkick''' (Tiny Turbo Changer, 2018)
**''Series'' '''4'''
**''Bag Code'': '''G'''
:Also released in Series 4 of Tiny Turbo Changers, Chopper Mode Dropkick is a blue redeco of the Series 1 [[Blackout (Movie)#The Last Knight|Blackout]] figure, changing from robot to an unlicensed approximation of the MH53 Pave-Low Helicopter.

:This mold was also used to make [[Chopter]].

==Merchandise==
===3D Battle-Card Game===
[[Image:3DBattleCard_Dropkick.jpg|thumb|right|250px|Face down in the gutter, won't admit defeat...]]
* '''Dropkick''' (3D Battle Card, 2007)
**''Card number:''

: In the [[3D Battle-Card Game]], Dropkick is on the Decepticon side. Pieces punched out from two different cards can be assembled to form a pickup truck or a robot, while a third double-sided card gives its stats and attacks for each mode. He (it?) uses the same parts layout as Movie [[Ironhide (Movie)|Ironhide]] and Generation 1 [[Skids (G1)|Skids]] (or Movie [[Skids (Movie)|Skids]]).

{{-}}

==Notes==
*There has been no ''official'' word on whether or not ''Bumblebee'' Dropkick was inspired by the character from the 2007 movie toyline — but they're both blue-and-grey Decepticon grunts from the live-action movie continuity who grumble and moan about being on Earth, so for the purposes of the wiki we're considering them to be the same character. Dropkick's partner, Shatter, similarly seems to [[Shatter#Notes|share conceptual DNA]] with [[Fracture (Movie)|another 2007 movie character]], which lends some credence to the idea that the pair were at least partially inspired by those characters.
===2007 toyline===
* Artist [[Ken Christiansen]] designed Dropkick, along with the other new characters in the [[Transformers The Game|''Transformers'' - The Game]] and [[Revenge of the Fallen (video games)|''Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen'' - The Game]] video games.
[[Image:DropkickWipers.jpg|thumb|right|100px|I'm angsty because my [[gimmick]] sucks.]]
* Dropkick's card art shows him with windshield wipers on his visor. They are probably to wipe away his tears.
* Dropkick appears on several covers for [[IDW Publishing]]'s ''[[Transformers: The Reign of Starscream|The Reign of Starscream]]'' comic despite not actually appearing in the story itself.
===''Bumblebee''===
[[File:BBDropkickCobraRender.jpg|thumb|left|Suck it [[Whirl (G1)|Whirl]]!|200px]]
* Even if briefly, Dropkick is one of the few Transformers from the live action film series who seems to have the ability of flight in robot mode.
* Dropkick's two main rotor blades split apart when he transforms into robot mode, making him look as though he has four main rotor blades despite only really having two.

===Foreign names===
