'''Mach Five Racing Prime''' (マッハ号レーシングプライム ''Mahha-gō Rēshingu Puraimu'') does not actually transform into the [[wikipedia:Mach Five|Mach Five]], but into [http://www.mach5.jp/teammach/index.php Team Mach]'s Nissan GT-R racing car.

Mach Five Racing Prime was among the mascots that appeared at the [[Tokyo Toy Show]], where somebody mistook him for [[Safety Prime]]. {{storylink|Tokyo Toy Show 2014 Report}}

==Notes==
[[File:Mach Prime at pit walk.jpg|thumb|right]]
*Mach Five Racing Prime was created as part of the ''Transformers GT'' [http://www.takaratomy.co.jp/products/tf30th/teammach/ collaboration] between [[TakaraTomy]] and Team Mach, a [[wikipedia:Super GT|Super GT]] racing team with a ''[[wikipedia:Speed Racer|Speed Racer]]'' theme. An actor cosplaying as him appeared at several events in 2014, including Super GT pit walks and the Tokyo Toy Show.
*His design is based on the [[Bluestreak (G1)#Chronicle|Legends Class Bluestreak]] toy (lacking the lightbar of the [[Prowl (G1)/toys#2010legend|Prowl]] version) in the colors of Team Mach's Nissan GT-R Nismo GT3. The coloration of his head makes him look a lot like [[Smokescreen (G1)|Smokescreen]].
*The character apparently went unnamed during his event appearances, but the ''Transformers Legends'' comic nicknamed him "Mach Five Racing Prime" after the ''Speed Racer'' vehicle that inspired the Nissan GT-R's color scheme.

Having watched this episode and agreeing with the "Worst episode ever" part, while also noting that we don't subscribe to the concept of "NPOV"...are we maybe being a little too hard on the episode? -- [[User:SFH|SFH]] 06:30, 21 November 2007 (UTC)
:Not particularly. Destroying the Moon with a cannon that can apparently only be operated by Bruticus to just flood a canyon is a plan that deserves all the ire it gets. [[User:Interrobang|Interrobang]] 06:35, 21 November 2007 (UTC)
::Is it really that much worse than the [[Giant Purple Griffin|fortress]]? -- [[User:SFH|SFH]] 06:54, 21 November 2007 (UTC)
:::Yes. And that's not even taking into account the sheer hateability of the two human leads. --[[User:M Sipher|M Sipher]] 06:58, 21 November 2007 (UTC)
:I suppose you have a point, there...okay, just thought I'd bring it up. -- [[User:SFH|SFH]] 07:01, 21 November 2007 (UTC)
::You know, it's like Wile E. Coyote, the resources they spend on Crazy Schemes would be better spent on just building a power plant that they can get energy from, without all the 'destruction' that forces the Autobots to intervene. Hell, given they wouldn't be bothering anybody, chances are Prime would just leave them alone. --[[User:FFN|FFN]] 12:23, 21 November 2007 (UTC)
:::I dunno... Megatron seems incapable of even simple energy-gathering schemes unless they involve the destruction of something. On at least one occasion, a normally benign manner of generating energy was used by Megatron in a fashion that threatened to destroy the Earth. (ex: [[Fire in the Sky]]). -- [[User:Dark T Zeratul|Dark T Zeratul]] 14:29, 21 November 2007 (UTC)

Darth Vader

2007-09-21T12:48:56Z

MegaBee: /* Star Wars Transformers */

: ''Darth Vader is a [[human]] in [[Star Wars]].''

[[Image:VaderVsPrime.jpg|right|thumb|250px|"Does Darth Vader have to choke a bitch?" is ''always'' a rhetorical question.]]

'''Darth Vader''' was once a man named '''Anakin Skywalker''' who converted to the dark side. He is possessed of great power, cunning, and speed. Once he called [[Obi-Wan Kenobi]] "master" although the exact nature of that relationship (could such a powerful being have once been a Jedi's slave?) and how it ended remain a mystery. He's been a member of the [[Jedi]] himself, and has been called "the most gifted pilot in the galaxy". He flies a variety of ships, at some point even an odd spherical "Death Star", all of which can transform into a humanoid robot designed in his own image. Despite all the imposing weapons at his disposal, he is a very powerful man, one of the most powerful masters of the force, in his own right, known to fight [[Transformer|Cybertronians]] ''on foot''.

== Fiction ==
:''('''Note''': The only fiction the Star Warriors have yet received has sadly been limited to back of package blurbs.)''

===''Star Wars Transformers'' Darth Vader Sith Starfighter package===
Shortly after being converted from his previous beliefs to the [[Sith]] faction, Darth Vader is given the task of crushing all resistance to the [[Emperor Palpatine|Emperor]] across the galaxy. Piloting his new, heavily modified Sith Starfighter and wielding dark power, he morphs his spacecraft into an imposing combat robot.

=== ''SWTF'' Darth Vader TIE Advanced Fighter package ===
Later, as a sinister Lord of the Sith, Darth Vader is on a mission to crush the Rebels and bring young [[Luke Skywalker]] before the Emperor. Vader combs the galaxy for Skywalker in his TIE Advanced Fighter, another spacecraft that can morph into a humanoid robot, destroying all Rebel ships, pirate fleets, and asteroids that get in his way.

=== ''SWTF'' Darth Vader "Galactic Showdown" set ===
Using his advanced TIE mecha once more, Vader participates in a shattering starship battle with his former master. Unable to best his opponent in giant robot combat Darth Vader is forced to fall back on his ship's vehicle mode's missile defenses. Giving us a true sense of their power, we learn that like [[Primus]] and [[Unicron]] before them, the conflict between these two powerful force users is enough to rock an entire galaxy.

'''Krok''' is Cybertron's star soc-... football player. This position isn't undeserved, as centuries of playing all-star [[mecha-soccer]] has given Krok the ability to cause earthquakes with his steps. His partner, [[Gatoraider]], finishes off the unlucky fools caught in the aftershocks.

Brawl (Movie)

2007-09-01T22:14:44Z

MegaBee: /* Transformers (2007) */ fixed typo

{{disambig2|the Brawl from the 2007 movie|the Combaticon Tank|Brawl (G1)}}

:''Brawl is a [[Decepticon]] from the [[Movie (franchise)|live-action movie]] [[continuity family]]. He is sometimes referred to as '''Devastator'''.''

[[Image:Brawl-cyber-slammer-boxart.jpg|right|thumb|300px|Maybe he was ''talking'' to Devastator earlier and got confused.]]

To say '''Brawl''' is a warrior is like calling [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]] a hunk of metal. Brawl does not just enjoy fighting, he is consumed by it. Tearing Autobots apart is embedded into his very core, and every fiber-optic cable of his being is obsessed with wild, unyielding combat. The only thing he enjoys, or even cares about, is the fury of battle. And he ''loves'' a good explosion. Particularly if it's one he created, and if it was an [[Autobot]] that is exploding.

{{quote|These things just don't die.|[[William Lennox]] on Brawl's durability|[[Transformers (2007)|Transformers]]}}

:''Alternate name:'' '''Devastator'''

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

Brawl was oddly absent from events surrounding the ''[[Ghost 1]]'' discovery. Whether he was aboard the ''[[Nemesis (Movie)|Nemesis]]'' and otherwise indisposed or joined up with [[Starscream (Movie)|Starscream]] at a later date is unknown.

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

[[Image:Brawlmovie tank activision.jpg|thumb|250px|left|I have many, many guns; I can call myself whatever I want!]]

====Autobot campaign====

Brawl arrived in [[Mission City]] shortly after [[Jazz (Movie)|Jazz]] took down [[Starscream (Movie)|Starscream]], [[Blackout (Movie)|Blackout]] and a pair of [[Dreadwing (Movie)|Dreadwings]] single-handedly. The Autobot's victory was short-lived... and so was the Autobot, as Brawl punctured Jazz's chest with his claw, extinguishing his [[spark]]. [[Ironhide (Movie)|Ironhide]] arrived just in time to witness the killing, and fought through a horde of Decepticon units to destroy Brawl.

====Decepticon campaign====
Brawl, [[Bonecrusher (Movie)|Bonecrusher]] and Starscream were hiding out in a human military installation in the desert when they received word that [[Frenzy (Movie)|Frenzy]] and [[Barricade (Movie)|Barricade]] had discovered the location of the [[AllSpark]]. When the three Decepticons mobilized, the two ground-based machines were assaulted by tanks designed to fire holding beams of electrical energy, forcing Starscream to back-and-forth babysit the two Decepticons as they tried to escape.

Brawl later stood by [[Megatron (Movie)|Megatron's ]] side in Washington D.C. after they had retrieved the AllSpark from the destroyed Autobots and had decimated pretty much everything in their path.

:''('''Note''': Brawl was not a playable character in the console versions of the game.)''

===''Transformers'' (2007) film===

{{spoiler}}

Brawl (here called "Devastator") was lying in wait at a military depot when Starscream contacted the Decepticon infiltration team, informing them that the All Spark had been found and they were to move out. Devastator acknowledged that he was in transit and rolled out of the depot. He met up with [[Barricade (Movie)|Barricade]] and [[Bonecrusher (Movie)|Bonecrusher]] and hit the highway, though Devastator separated from the group before Barricade and Bonecrusher got on the freeway and met up with Autobot/human convoy.

Arriving at [[Mission City]] in the aftermath of Starscream's opening attack on the Autobots and their [[William Lennox|human]] [[Robert Epps|allies]], Devastator fired shells from his main gun, narrowly missing several targets before running over vehicles abandoned by human bystanders. As the American soldiers fanned out in search of cover, the Autobots charged Devastator. He focused his attacks on [[Ironhide (Movie)|Ironhide]], who was forced to somersault over his shells. This distraction allowed the Autobot Jazz to jump on top of Devastator and point his cannon away from the humans. Devastator managed to transform and throw the smaller Autobot off him, but not before Jazz destroyed his left side rocket launcher pod.

Damaged, but not down, Devastator fired two rockets from his remaining launcher, missing the heavily armed Autobot as he somersaulted over the missiles. Ironhide and Jazz managed to fire several shots at Devastator, disorienting him. [[Ratchet (Movie)|Ratchet]] followed up by using his buzzsaw to slice off Devastator's left arm. The humans then fired a volley of sabot rounds, which knocked Devastator to the ground. The only thing that saved him was the Autobots and humans' retreat at the arrival of [[Megatron (Movie)|Megatron]]. Eventually, Ironhide and Ratchet disengaged from the battle as they left to protect [[Sam Witwicky|ladiesman217]], who was escaping with the All Spark, while Jazz took on Megatron. Now with fewer targets to deal with, Devastator sprayed heavy machine gun fire at the remaining humans, whose leader remarked that the battle was not going well.

Devastator continued to pin down the soldiers until the damaged Autobot [[Bumblebee (Movie)|Bumblebee]] suddenly attacked while on the back of of a tow truck driven by Ladiesman217's [[Mikaela Banes|female companion]]. With Bumblebee's plasma cannon being the deciding factor, the human soldiers rallied and fired more sabots, piercing Devastator's armor until a final shot from Bumblebee struck Devastator's spark and killed him.

Devastator's body was dumped into the deepest part of the ocean along with his fellow Decepticons, in the hopes the intense pressure and cold will destroy whatever remained. {{Storylink|Transformers (2007)}}

*'''Decepticon Brawl''' (Deluxe, 2007)
:''Japanese ID number:'' '''MD-03'''

[[Image:Movie_Deluxe_Brawl_toy.jpg|thumb|left|200px|Don't let them know about my arm problem or they won't buy me]]

: Deluxe-class Brawl transforms into a heavily modified fictional tank based upon an [[wikipedia:M1_Abrams|M1A1 Abrams]], fitted with angular reflective armor, a mine plow and external spare fuel canisters. Mounted upon the turret is a smaller sub-turret housing two anti-aircraft cannons and rocket launchers. The spring-loaded main cannon fires a translucent red projectile.

: In robot mode, Brawl faithfully replicates his movie design, with the only major divergence being that his main gun does not split into smaller guns (although the guns ARE on the back half of the gun, which can be spun around). He is reasonably articulated, with ball and swivel joints in his arms and legs. Thanks to [[Automorph]]ing, pushing down on the front of his tank during transformation raises the front of the treads and his head up into position for his robot mode, and vice versa for the tank mode. He is armed with his spring-loaded main gun on his right arm and a flip-out blade on his left.

: There is a design flaw in the way Brawl's arms attach to his torso - the rhombic peg and socket system used does not provide a tight enough fit, and thus the arms have a tendency to detach at the shoulder when moved. There have also been some reports of the gears for the treads crack easily and no longer function properly. At least you can Reenact that part in the movie Where Rachet Saws off Brawl's arm.

{{-}}

*'''Decepticon Brawl''' (Leader, 2007)

:The larger, more heavily armed version of Brawl, this figure is somewhat more accurate to the character's CGI model, but with a somewhat inaccurate transformation. It features Brawl's smaller, four-gun turret on his right arm, plus the previously omitted Gattling gun on behing the claw on his left arm. The only major diversion in his design is the main turret now resting near his right hip, a la ''Armada'' Megatron. It features more articulation joints and weapons than the Deluxe-class figure, as is to be expected.

:While having no firing missiles, it does feature a number of Automorph gimmicks. First, pressing the button on the front of the tank causes his head and chest pieces to move into position. A scoop/claw has been added to the front of the tank, probably to make the lever to push his head back down stand out less. Second, pressing the headlights on either side of the front end causes the paneling to swing back into place. Finally, by pulling the cannon on the left arm back, the claw swings forward.

:Other features include lights and sounds, acticated by pushing back on the main cannon or turning the upper turret, and a pair of blades that swing down from the legs. Because of the positioning of these blades, the edges face down, toward his feet. They're also undocumented anywhere on the box or instructions, probably out of embarassment.

===3D Battle Card Game===
*'''Brawl''' (2007)
:''Card number'': '''17'''

: Brawl is a 41-point "Rare" piece in the [[3D Battle-Card Game]]. Constructed of punch-out pieces from plastic cards, he can be assembled into his tank mode, or a sort of representation of his robot mode. Oddly enough, he does not actually have his movie-model head; rather, he uses a recolored version of [[Barricade (Movie)|Barricade]]'s noggin slapped on the Brawl body.

: He uses the same construction as the [[Wreckage (Movie)|Wreckage]] card.

==Trivia==
* During the movie, Brawl is identified in subtitles as 'Devastator', an early working name for the character. When queried, director [[Michael Bay]] said he had always preferred Devastator and that it is not a mistake. Writer [[Roberto Orci]] felt that it was a mistake that would hopefully be fixed before the full official release of the film, this did not happen. At [[Botcon]] 2007 Hasbro representatives said they consider "Devastator" a "continuity glitch" and as far as they are concerned the character's name is Brawl. Despite rumors to the contrary, he is ''not credited'' in the film under either name.

* According to Picture Vehicle Coordinator [[Steve Mann]], the filming prop of Brawl was a redress of a tank prop made for another movie [http://enewsi.com/news.php?catid=190&itemid=11213]. Specifically, it was the 'stealth tank' seen in the film ''XXX: State of the Union''.

*The name 'Brawl' was previously a working name for the character now called [[Barricade (Movie)|Barricade.]]

* A wallpaper on Hasbro's Transformers web site labels Brawl as "Demolisher", one of several working names for this character.

*Brawl, under the name Devastator appears in the second issue of the Titan's published Transformers magazine/comic, where he takes over from Megatron in fighting Ratchet and Ironhide.

*Jazz' move of racing-transforming-boarding Brawl is not completely unlike the scene in [[The Transformers: The Movie]] where [[Kup]] does the same thing with [[Blitzwing (G1)|Blitzwing]].
