:''Mach Kick is a [[Maximal]] from the [[Super Lifeform Transformers: Beast Wars Neo (franchise)|Beast Wars Neo]] portion of the [[Generation 1 continuity family|Generation 1]] [[continuity family]].''

[[File:MachKick.jpg|thumb|upright=2.2|right|My Little Maximal]]
'''Mach Kick''' (マッハキック ''Mahha Kikku'') is the former sub-commander of the [[Thoroughbred Corps]]. After their destruction at the hands of the [[Predacon (BW)|Predacons]], he was left the only survivor. Once he recovered, he voluntarily joined up with [[Big Convoy]] to aid in his quest to obtain the [[Angolmois Capsule]]s.

Mach Kick has a very free spirit and a rowdy attitude, cavorting about and partying like he was in a college fraternity rather than a grisly war. This behavior continually causes him to butt heads with his "old buddy", [[Longrack (BWN)|Longrack]], who is a notorious stick-in-the-mud. Mach Kick has something of an "idol worshiping" complex in regards to Big Convoy, whom he respects for being so powerful and "cool". He strives to do his best to impress his commander, even at tasks as menial as KP. His attempts to "do a good job" typically result in him encroaching upon the personal space of his peers, who just ''can't stand'' him.

Mach Kick was the remaining survivor of the [[Thoroughbred Corps]], which were otherwise wiped out in the [[Great War (G1)|Great War]]. He joined [[Big Convoy]]'s crew and helped in the defeat of [[Magmatron]]. Thanks to his service, he was selected to become part of [[Lio Convoy]]'s elite special operations unit, the [[Pack]]. {{storylink|Transformers: Beast Wars Sourcebook|Beast Wars Sourcebook #2}}

Mach Kick traveled with the Pack to prehistoric [[Earth]] to rescue [[Razorbeast]]. He was put in charge of tracking Razorbeast's near-non-existent signal back to its source. When the group charged into battle with the Predacons there, he smashed [[Scourge (BW)|Scourge]] with a buck to the chest, and [[Terragator]] attempted to ride him bareback. It didn't go well for Terragator. {{storylink|The Ascending issue 2|The Ascending #2}}

After dealing with the Predacons, the Pack were surprised to find the Angolmois-infected Razorbeast going on a rampage. Mach Kick gave Apache a ride to the site where their former comrade was wrecking 'bots of both factions indiscriminately, but did not himself participate in subduing Razorbeast. {{storylink|The Ascending issue 3|The Ascending #3}}

Later on, Mach Kick was one of the many Maximals that hitched a ride back to Cybertron in order to combat the greater threat that resided there: [[Shokaract]]. Near the climax of the battle, he wielded weapon-mode Break, blasting the monster. {{storylink|The Ascending issue 4|The Ascending #4}}

===''TransTech''===
A Mach Kick found his way to [[Axiom Nexus]], and entered the competitive world of [[Equinicon]] races. His performance in one race came under fire, as it was suspected that his [[Mini-Con]] partner, [[Fastbreak (Timelines)|Fastbreak]], had given him a speed boost via an illegal in-race [[Powerlinx]]. The pair refused to comment to reporters about the allegations. {{storylink|Rook - Axiom Nexus News: Investigative Journalist|Rook - Axiom Nexus News, 2015/05/04}}

===''Beast Wars: Uprising''===
Mach Kick was a member of the [[Resistance]] movement fighting against the [[Builder of Cybertron|Builder]]s. He operated as part of [[Grimlock (G1)|Grimlock]]'s cell. When Grimlock acquired the [[G-Virus]], his cell planned to release it at [[Tesarus (polity)|Tesarus Arena]] when the [[Games]] restarted. Mach Kick acted as point-bot as the group infiltrated the arena, but he was called up short when Grimlock's battle instincts detected something amiss. Mach Kick failed to listen to his commander's warning, and continued walking forward until he set off a mine, killing him in a nanoklik. {{storylink|Micro-Aggressions}}

===2005 IDW continuity===
Mach Kick was one of [[Shockwave (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Onyx Prime]]'s Maximals. When this bestial horde invaded Cybertron, he was one of the many warriors who wound up battling [[Arcee (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Arcee]]. {{storylink|The Falling, Chapter 5: Endless Forever|Endless Forever}}

After a [[space bridge]] accident left many Transformers stuck in the magical land of [[Equestria]], Mach Kick took part in a friendly race to find the fastest among them. Unfortunately, it was interupted by [[Decepticon|Decepticons]] before Mach Kick could prove victorious, and in the end, they were beaten by [[Windblade (G1)|Windblade]] and [[Rainbow Dash]]. {{storylink|The Flyin' Fox Trot}}

*'''Mach Kick''' (Deluxe, March 1999)
**''Japanese ID number'': '''C-36'''
**''Accessories'': "[[Tail Tomahawk|Tail-hatchet]]"

: Part of the third wave of ''[[Transformers: Beast Wars (Japanese toyline)#1999 (Beast Wars Neo)|Beast Wars Neo]]'' toys, Mach Kick transforms into a gray-blue organic horse with a rooted nylon-hair tail (awwwww). Pressing back on the horse's mane causes the head to spring forward via jackspring mechanism as a ramming attack. This [[gimmick]] is usable in all three modes. His soft, brushable tail is attached to a hatchet for use in [[robot mode]]. His robot mode also features rooted hair in a ponytail (see what they did there?) on his head.

: Mach Kick has a third "Protect Mode", and moreso than all the other ''Neo'' new-mold-toy third modes, it is an horrendous pile of limbs and ball-joints that holds no meaning, only madness.

: Mach Kick is widely considered one of the most infuriating ''Transformers'' toys to actually transform, thanks to being a [[shellformer]] with approximately 467 ball-and-socket joints that need to be positioned ''juuuuust'' right or else nothing will properly connect. On the other hand, it can also rear up on its hind legs in a dramatic pose in [[beast mode]] and stand unassisted doing so.
