&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;Transformers: Rise of the Dark Spark&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039; is a video game jointly-created by both [[Hasbro]] and [[Activision Blizzard|Activision]], released on June 24, [[2014]] in Europe and North America, and June 25 in Australia.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;http://www.ign.com/articles/2014/05/05/transformers-rise-of-the-dark-spark-release-date-revealed&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Developed by [[Edge of Reality]] for the PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, Xbox 360, Xbox One, Wii U, and PC,&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;[http://www.examiner.com/article/transformers-rise-of-the-dark-spark-announced-3ds-version-to-be-strategy-rpg &amp;quot;Transformers: Rise of the Dark Spark&amp;quot; announced; 3DS version to be Strategy RPG]&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; it incorporates elements of both the &#039;&#039;Transformers&#039;&#039; [[Live-action film series|film franchise]] and the &#039;&#039;[[Transformers: War for Cybertron (games)|War for Cybertron]]&#039;&#039; / &#039;&#039;[[Transformers: Fall of Cybertron|Fall of Cybertron]]&#039;&#039; games. The story takes place before the &#039;&#039;Ark&#039;&#039; is launched in the Aligned continuity, and it also deals with a storyline revolving around one of [[Lockdown (ROTF)|Lockdown]]&#039;s schemes in the &#039;&#039;Age of Extinction&#039;&#039; portion. It features over forty playable characters, slightly fewer than [[Transformers: Rise of the Dark Spark (3DS)|the Nintendo 3DS version]].&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;http://www.tfw2005.com/transformers-news/video-games-17/new-rise-of-the-dark-spark-preview-from-game-informer-179722/&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
On [[December 21]], [[2017]], &#039;&#039;Rise of the Dark Spark&#039;&#039; and its downloadable content were delisted from multiple digital storefronts due to the expiration of [[Activision]]&#039;s licensing deal with [[Hasbro]].&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;https://www.polygon.com/2017/12/22/16810202/platinum-games-transformers-devastation-legend-of-korra-steam-xbox-live-playstation-store&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Synopsis==&lt;br /&gt;
===Chapter I: The Dark Spark===&lt;br /&gt;
:&#039;&#039; Character: [[Drift (AOE)|Drift]] &#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:ROTDS1.jpg|frame|right|Are you an Angel?]]&lt;br /&gt;
Above [[Earth]], a strange object flies through space, destroying a satellite in orbit. The mysterious item flies past a ship, piloted by none other than the legendary mercenary [[Lockdown (ROTF)|Lockdown]]. One of his henchmen arrives in the cockpit and asks Lockdown what it was. He replies that it is &amp;quot;the past come calling.&amp;quot; [[Drift (AOE)|Drift]], the Decepticon-turned-Autobot, arrives in a burning city to investigate. He notices that something crash-landed nearby. He contacts [[Optimus Prime (Movie)|Optimus Prime]], leader of the Autobots, and tells him about the strange object.&lt;br /&gt;
Prime instructs Drift to investigate the crash site, but while Drift is en route, Lockdown&#039;s goons attack the city. Recognizing that they are not [[Decepticon]]s, Drift reports to Optimus, who correctly guesses that they are mercenaries (much to Drift&#039;s disdain). Drift takes out all three mercenaries and, at Optimus&#039;s instruction, equips himself with blasters to better fight with, he continues to the site of the crash, taking out mercenaries as he goes. Drift meets up with Optimus and [[Bumblebee (Movie)|Bumblebee]], and the three arrive at the crash site. The Autobots discover an object that Drift does not recognize, but its appearance horrifies Optimus. To make things worse, Lockdown&#039;s henchman have arrived first. After another fight, the Autobots walk to the edge of the crater, and Optimus reveals to Drift that it is the Dark Spark. Before it can be retrieved, Lockdown arrives and steals the artifact for himself. The Dark Spark&#039;s power prevents him from intervening, and all he can do is furiously watch as Lockdown departs in his ship for parts unknown.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Chapter II: The Lost Vault===&lt;br /&gt;
:&#039;&#039; Characters: [[Soundwave (WFC)]]/ [[Shockwave (WFC)]]&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
As Shockwave and [[Starscream (WFC)|Starscream]] fly through an ancient, abandoned Cybertronian city, Starscream complains of Megatron sending him on a fool&#039;s errand to find a mystical relic that may or may not exist. As this sparks a discussion between Shockwave and Starscream, Soundwave chimes in over the com link, demanding &amp;quot;less talk&amp;quot;. As the three &#039;cons make their way through the city and into an ancient vault, they are met with heavy resistance from feral cybernetic life forms Shockwave has dubbed &amp;quot;[[Insecticon (Prime)|Insecticons]]&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
Upon destroying the Insecticons attacking them, Shockwave splits off from the group, hoping to find out more about the vault they are in and what is hidden in it. He never gets the chance, however, as he is attacked by, to his surprise, [[Sharpshot|three]] [[Kickback (FOC)|sentient]] [[Hardshell (Prime)|insecticons]]. Inadvertently insulting them, (kind of) and incurring their wrath they all attack him, and are all soundly defeated.&lt;br /&gt;
As Soundwave and Starscream come upon more Insecticons, they go about opening up the vault further so that they can keep moving. Upon defeating the attacking Insecticons, Starscream is alarmed at the appearance of Hardshell, and begins shooting at him, only to be stopped by Shockwave, who reveals Hardshell, along with Kickback and Sharpshot, to be &amp;quot;new recruits&amp;quot; to the Decepticon cause. Sharpshot points the Decepticons in the direction of the Dark Spark before departing with the other Insecticons.&lt;br /&gt;
The Decepticons continue their trek further into the vault, they are met with resistance in the form of auto turrets and Crystal Guardians as they deactivate the chamber to the Dark Spark. While doing so, Soundwave begins to notice Autobot energy signatures on his scanners, but Shockwave passes them off as glitches. Soon, the Decepticons arrive, triumphant, at the entrance to the chamber holding the Dark Spark.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Chapter III: Getaway===&lt;br /&gt;
:&#039;&#039; Character: [[Sideswipe (WFC)]]&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
Sideswipe and [[Ironhide (WFC)|Ironhide]] have been tailing the aforementioned Decepticon trio through their whole trip to find the Dark Spark, and have arrived at the Dark Spark before the Decepticons. Ironhide, wishing to be long gone before they are found, takes the Dark Spark. As the Autobots are leaving, marveling at their luck, the Decepticons enter the chamber, and, enraged that the Autobots beat them to the Dark Spark, open fire. Ironhide and Sideswipe barely escape from the chamber as security measures cause it to close itself up, trapping the Decepticons inside. Starscream is enraged, but Shockwave bids him to calm down, as Soundwave had released [[Laserbeak (WFC)|Laserbeak]] before they entered the chamber, and the small bird-bot would ensure they are not trapped for long.&lt;br /&gt;
Meanwhile, Sideswipe and Ironhide are running into resistance from the Insecticons, and Sideswipe must juggle keeping the Insecticons away from Ironhide and the Dark Spark, along with using his grappling hook to &#039;&#039;pull Ironhide&#039;&#039; up through the tunnel to the exit. As Sideswipe and Ironhide keep moving, they get separated when Sideswipe accidentally closes a blast door between himself and Ironhide. As Sideswipe fights off swarming Insecticons, Ironhide opens up another path for him to travel through, allowing them to meet up again.&lt;br /&gt;
As they reach the scheduled rendezvous point (some abandoned subway tunnels), Ironhide reports to [[Optimus Prime (WFC)|Prime]] that they have the Dark Spark. They are greeted at the rendezvous point by Optimus himself and [[Bumblebee (WFC)|Bumblebee]]. As Optimus and the others fight off the swarming Insecticons, Sideswipe is ordered to get to the control control panel for the subway and call a train. Sideswipe is successful, but the train, being revealed to be on a timer, leaves as quickly as it came, with only Bumblebee on board. Optimus declares that they will have to hold the line against the Insecticons until the next train arrives.&lt;br /&gt;
As the Autobots fend off the Decepticons, Starscream, having been freed by Laserbeak, arrives, triumphantly demanding that the Autobots surrender or face his wrath. The Insecticons proceed to swarm him. As Starscream is distracted by the Insecticons, the next train arrives, and the Autobots board, departing for Iacon. As the train leaves, Shockwave and Soundwave arrive, just in time for Starscream to finish off the Insecticons and berate them for not coming sooner and letting the Autobots get away. Shockwave simply looks at Starscream, then presses a switch on his arm, causing the train, which had been wired, to explode.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Chapter IV: Possession===&lt;br /&gt;
:&#039;&#039; Character: [[Sharpshot]]&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
Shockwave, believing Optimus Prime has the Dark Spark, hides in the rubble of the smoldering train. Sharpshot appears and informs Shockwave of the Dark Spark&#039;s real location, with Ironhide, and the two set off to get it. After a short firefight, Shockwave seizes the Dark Spark from a heavily damaged Ironhide and begins to head for [[Kaon (polity)|Kaon]]. The bridge is destroyed while he is on it, but he manages to escape before he falls. Sharpshot transforms into insect mode and covers him as he advances along the walkway, eventually barred by an energy barrier. Sharpshot destroys the energy barrier, allowing Shockwave to progress, only to be met by another one. After destroying the second barrier, Shockwave is met by a duo of [[Titan (Unit)|Titans]], which cause him to jump off the walkway. He lands in an ancient research laboratory, and, after inserting some [[moleculon fuse]]s, some history of the Dark Spark is revealed. When Sharpshot journeys down into the catacombs to activate the final switch, he is attacked by [[Crystal Guardians]]. Sharpshot returns to Shockwave, and the two exit the facility. Outside, they are found by [[Vortex (FOC)|Vortex]], who alerts the other [[Combaticon (WFC)|Combaticons]]. [[Onslaught (WFC)|Onslaught]] and [[Swindle (FOC)|Swindle]] arrive soon after. Onslaught orders a reluctant Swindle to escort Shockwave and Sharpshot to Kaon.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Chapter V: Hustle===&lt;br /&gt;
:&#039;&#039; Character: [[Swindle (FOC)]]&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
While making their way towards Kaon, Swindle, Shockwave, and Sharpshot find themselves in a spacecraft boneyard. As Swindle activates some beacons in order to find a way through, the Decepticons are ambushed by a fleet of Autobot Flyers. Swindle manages to open up a hallway while an Autobot [[Dropship (WFC)|Dropship]] sends in reinforcements. The Decepticons destroy the Dropship in order to make some makeshift stairs and enter the hallway. While making their way through, Sharpshot senses something and abandons the group (much to Swindle&#039;s relief). Shortly afterwards, Swindle &amp;amp; Shockwave are ambushed by a squadron of Autobots led by [[Cliffjumper (WFC)|Cliffjumper]]. After defeating Cliffjumper and his forces, Swindle &amp;amp; Shockwave surround the Autobot before he activates his invisibility cloak and escapes. Swindle alerts Shockwave that they are nearly at the gates of Kaon and that the other Combaticons should meet up with them at the rendezvous point. Meanwhile, Cliffjumper reports to Optimus that he failed to stop the Decepticons, but Optimus reassures him that he bought them enough time to set their plan into motion.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Chapter VI: Gates of Kaon===&lt;br /&gt;
:&#039;&#039; Characters: [[Swindle (FOC)]]/ [[Bruticus (WFC)]]&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
As the Combaticons meet up at the gates of Kaon, they find themselves under attack by the Autobots. [[Blast Off (FOC)|Blast Off]] offers to deliver the Dark Spark via air, but Shockwave warns that should the Dark Spark fall from a great height, it would cause massive damage to the city. Onslaught orders Shockwave to stay behind while the Combaticons take care of the Autobots. Swindle is tasked with taking down the Enforcers so Blast Off can provide air support. After the Enforcers are destroyed, Shockwave requests some back-up from Swindle. After arguing with Swindle, Blast Off finally provides some air support after Shockwave angrily orders him to. Swindle &amp;amp; Shockwave soon find themselves blocked off by a barrier, and Swindle is forced to protect Shockwave while he hacks the force-field. Swindle meets up with Onslaught and helps him take down a Titan. Soon the rest of the Combaticons arrive and they combine into [[Bruticus (WFC)|Bruticus]]. Bruticus begins defeating wave after wave of Autobot soldiers. While Bruticus has his back turned, Cliffjumper tries to plant a bomb on his back. However, Bruticus finds out and smashes Cliffjumper against a wall. Holding Cliffjumper hostage, Shockwave orders the Autobots to ceasefire. [[Jazz (WFC)|Jazz]] and his troops comply, but the Decepticons take Cliffjumper with them into Kaon anyway. Jazz alerts Optimus to their situation, with Optimus assuring that they&#039;ll rescue Cliffjumper and secure the Dark Spark.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Chapter VII: Infiltration===&lt;br /&gt;
:&#039;&#039; Character: [[Optimus Prime (WFC)]]&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
Optimus &amp;amp; Jazz begin their rescue mission by driving down a road towards [[Kolkular]], Megatron&#039;s fortress. Jazz asks Prime why they just can&#039;t leave the Dark Spark with Megatron, considering the Autobots are leaving Cybertron anyway. Optimus is worried however that Megatron may use the Dark Spark&#039;s power to destroy the [[Ark (WFC)|Ark]], which is still under construction. Optimus and Jazz manage to make their way into Kolkular by blowing out the vents. Jazz heads off to find a way through, leaving Optimus to fight off some Decepticon soldiers. Jazz finds himself trapped by some turrets, which Optimus manages to shut off. The two Autobots meet up and continue to fight their way through the Recycling Pits. After making their way through some defense grids, Jazz hacks into a terminal and finds out where Shockwave is keeping Cliffjumper. Jazz notices how easy their journey has been, and both he and Optimus agree that they&#039;re walking into a trap. On cue, Megatron treats the two with a warm Decepticon welcome, which naturally includes gunfire. Optimus and Jazz fight off Megatron&#039;s troops and find the prison cell that Cliffjumper is being held captive. Optimus provides cover for Jazz using a turret while he breaks Cliffjumper out. As Optimus and Jazz check up on Cliffjumper, walls begin to surround the cell, trapping all three Autobots. Optimus contacts [[Perceptor (Prime)|Perceptor]] and orders him to commence Operation Longshot.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Chapter VIII: A Desperate Plan===&lt;br /&gt;
:&#039;&#039; Character: [[Jetfire (WFC)]]&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
Perceptor relays the details of Operation Longshot to Jetfire, namely how Jetfire&#039;s mission is to infiltrate the smoldering remains of [[Trypticon (WFC)|Trypticon]]. Perceptor has reprogrammed a Decepticon maintenance probe to map out Trypticon&#039;s interior, which would have changed since Jetfire&#039;s last visit. Once inside, Jetfire finds that some of Typticon&#039;s systems are still online, but these are automatic functions and not a sign of Trypticon&#039;s consciousness. However, Jetfire notices some new gear inside Trypticon and he is attacked by some Decepticon soldiers. Jetfire discovers that Starscream is salvaging some Energon from Trypticon without Megatron&#039;s permission. Jetfire continues on his way towards the cargo bay, but he catches the attention of some turrets, alerting Starsceam to his presence. Jetfire soon arrives at the weapon chamber, and he is tasked with reactivating Trypticon&#039;s weapon system. Perceptor activates Trypticon&#039;s orbital strike, giving Jetfire barely enough time to escape. Starscream is enraged that all his Energon has gone to waste and vows revenge against Jetfire. The energy beam fired from Trypticon soon reaches its target: Kolkular. Things go according to plan, as Optimus, Jazz, and Cliffjumper are freed due to the damage to the fortress and the three begin their escape.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Chapter IX: Ascension===&lt;br /&gt;
:&#039;&#039; Character: [[Optimus Prime (WFC)]]&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
During the Autobot&#039;s prison break, Cliffjumper recalls Shockwave bringing up his experiments with the Dark Spark and how Cliffjumper &amp;quot;wouldn&#039;t have to be an Autobot much longer&amp;quot;. Optimus orders Jazz to get Cliffjumper to safety, while he&#039;ll go after Megatron and the Dark Spark alone. Jazz &amp;amp; Cliffjumper are reluctant, but comply. Optimus is soon suppressed by turret fire, but he manages to destroy the turrets power source. Optimus accesses a computer terminal to discover where Megatron&#039;s location is, and also locks the doors behind him to prevent any counter-strike against him. After fighting through more Decepticon troops, Optimus enters a room that contains some fallen Autobot soldiers. Megatron and Shockwave observe from a distance and decide to use Optimus for an experiment. Using [[Dark Energon]], Shockwave [[Terrorcon (Prime)|resurrects]] the Autobots, now pledging their allegiance to Megatron. Megatron, now using the Dark Spark to increase his power, joins his new troops in their fight against Optimus. Whenever Megatron begins to recharge the Dark Spark, Optimus starts destroying the charging towers. In a last ditch effort, Optimus and Megatron begin to unleash the power of the [[Matrix of Leadership]] and the Dark Spark, respectively. Eventually, the power of the Matrix overpowers the Dark Spark, causing it to eject itself out of Megatron and launch itself into space. Shockwave begins to drag Megatron away, having sustained serious injuries. Jazz contacts Optimus to ask him about his condition. Optimus informs him that the Dark Spark has been neutralized and the Autobots should now focus their attention on finishing the Ark. Optimus does express his concerns however, that the Dark Spark may eventually cause havoc [[Live-action film series|elsewhere]]...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Chapter X: Hunted ===&lt;br /&gt;
:&#039;&#039; Character: [[Bumblebee (Movie)]] &#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
Across time and space, Lockdown is contemplating how fortunate it was for him to find the Dark Spark. Bumblebee and Drift have been busy tracking [[Knight Ship|Lockdown&#039;s ship]] and report to Optimus that he may be heading towards an abandoned military base. Bumblebee asks (well, more like beeps) Optimus if their back-up is ready, but Optimus tells him to be patient. After ending their transmission, the two Autobots are attacked by snipers. The duo manage to flank the snipers, and Bumblebee provides cover for Drift as he makes his way down the cliffs. The two eventually make it to base, which is swarming with mercenaries. Drift attempts a stealth attack against Lockdown, but he is quickly spotted and taken down. Lockdown then orders his men to find Bumblebee, knowing that Autobots rarely travel alone.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Chapter XI: Investigation ===&lt;br /&gt;
:&#039;&#039; Characters: [[Bumblebee (Movie)]]/ [[Drift (AOE)|Drift]] &#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
Bumblebee continues to fight his way through Lockdown&#039;s men while looking for Drift. The mercenaries have jammed the Autobot&#039;s radio signals, leaving them unable to communicate with Optimus. Bumblebee eventually finds Drift being interrogated by Lockdown. Lockdown mocks Drift for his shift in allegiance and leaves him to get roughed up by the mercenaries. Bumblebee takes this opportunity to snipe one of the henchmen, allowing Drift to escape. While fighting wave after wave of Lockdown&#039;s henchmen, Drift overhears Lockdown assuring he&#039;ll keep the Autobots distracted. Lockdown unveils his new Titan mercenary, which is impervious to the Autobot&#039;s weapons. This forces Drift and Bumblebee to flee.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Chapter XII: Ambushed===&lt;br /&gt;
:&#039;&#039;Characters: [[Drift (AOE)|Drift]]/ [[Grimlock (AOE)]]&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
Drift and Bumblebee make their way outside while more mercenaries try to take them out. Just when it seems like there&#039;s no hope left for the two, Grimlock, one of the [[Dinobot (AOE)|Dinobots]], comes to their rescue. After Grimlock easily dispatches the mercenaries, the Titan mercenary finally arrives. Grimlock smacktalks the Titan before rendering it &amp;quot;extinct&amp;quot;. Lockdown takes this opportunity to escape, much to Grimlock&#039;s anger.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Chapter XIII: Extinction===&lt;br /&gt;
:&#039;&#039; Character: [[Grimlock (AOE)]]&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
Lockdown and his men enter their base located in the middle of a city. Upon hearing that the Autobots have entered the city, Lockdown orders the mercenaries to keep them occupied. Grimlock and Optimus make their way through a blockade on a bridge. Afterwards, Optimus heads off to meet up with Drift and Bumblebee, and Grimlock has to continue alone. As Grimlock rampages his way through, Optimus detects Energon surges coming from within the city. The Autobots reach the entrance to Lockdown&#039;s hide out and Grimlock is tasked with destroying the transmitters that allow Lockdown to communicate with his troops. Grimlock then meets up with the rest of the Autobots and provides cover for Optimus as he tries to get the entrance to open. Optimus succeeds, and he and Bumblebee enter Lockdown&#039;s lair.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Chapter XIII: Locked Down===&lt;br /&gt;
:&#039;&#039; Character: [[Optimus Prime (Movie)]]&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
Optimus and Bumblebee make their way underground, while Drift and Grimlock guard the entrance. Optimus and Bumblebee fight Lockdown&#039;s mercenaries as they make their way through the base. Drift meets up with the two and assures them that Grimlock has everything under control. The three Autobots soon confront Lockdown and discover that he has built himself a time bridge. Since the Autobots failed to prevent him from recovering an amplifier that was located in the jungle, Lockdown is free to go back in time and save the Decepticons that were in the [[Transformers: Dark of the Moon (film)|Battle for Chicago]]. After destroying the energy stablizers for the time bridge, Lockdown begins to monologue about how well-paid he was during the war and that after [[Megatron (Movie)|Megatron&#039;s]] death, things haven&#039;t been the same. Lockdown intends to bring the Decepticons into the present and continue the war anew. Lockdown intends his first job to deliver Optimus to Megatron. Optimus is disgusted by Lockdown&#039;s plan and tries to fight the bounty hunter. Lockdown is impervious to Optimus&#039; weapons thanks to the Dark Spark and Optimus has to resort to melee attacks in order to damage him. Eventually, the two begin to grapple with each other and Optimus tosses Lockdown towards Drift, who cuts the Dark Spark out of Lockdown&#039;s chest. Optimus then uses the Matrix to toss the Dark Spark into the time bridge. The time bridge becomes too unstable, and the Autobots make their escape. His plans ruined, Lockdown flees from the Autobots in his ship.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Meanwhile, the Dark Spark finally lands in the middle of a desert. Watching over this, [[Optimus Prime (G1)|a familiar face]] expresses horror that the day has finally come...&lt;br /&gt;

==Quotes==&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Starscream:&#039;&#039;&#039; &amp;quot;Soundwave, did Shockwave make a &#039;&#039;joke&#039;&#039; back there? &amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Soundwave:&#039;&#039;&#039; &amp;quot;AFFIRMATIVE.&amp;quot; &amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Starscream:&#039;&#039;&#039; &amp;quot;Was it intentional? &amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Soundwave:&#039;&#039;&#039; &amp;quot;AFFIRMATIVE&amp;quot; &amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Starscream:&#039;&#039;&#039; &amp;quot;You know Soundwave, you&#039;ve become quite the conversationalist.&amp;quot; &amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Soundwave:&#039;&#039;&#039; &amp;quot;AFFIRMATIVE&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
:-&#039;&#039;&#039;Starscream&#039;&#039;&#039; and &#039;&#039;&#039;Soundwave&#039;&#039;&#039; discuss Shockwave&#039;s brief moment of humor.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Starscream:&#039;&#039;&#039; &amp;quot;A pity, then, that &#039;&#039;we&#039;&#039; are only &#039;&#039;three&#039;&#039;.&amp;quot; &amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Soundwave:&#039;&#039;&#039; &amp;quot;LASERBEAK: EJECT.&amp;quot; &amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Starscream:&#039;&#039;&#039; &amp;quot;My mistake. &#039;&#039;Three and a half&#039;&#039;.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
:-&#039;&#039;&#039;Starscream&#039;&#039;&#039; does not think much of &#039;&#039;&#039;Soundwave&#039;s&#039;&#039;&#039; minions.&lt;br /&gt;

&#039;&#039;&#039;Shockwave:&#039;&#039;&#039; &amp;quot;Are you implying that you two were not forming a &#039;&#039;long and lasting bond of friendship&#039;&#039;?&amp;quot;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039; Swindle:&#039;&#039;&#039; &amp;quot;You can&#039;t be serious?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
:-&#039;&#039;&#039;Shockwave&#039;&#039;&#039; discusses with Swindle about his &amp;lt;s&amp;gt; slash fic &amp;lt;/s&amp;gt; observations of the two.&lt;br /&gt;

&#039;&#039;&#039; Perceptor:&#039;&#039;&#039; &amp;quot;Your knowledge is based on the &#039;&#039;erroneous&#039;&#039; notion that Trypticon&#039;s layout was not altered during his conversion from space station to &#039;&#039;smoldering wreck&#039;&#039;.&amp;quot; &amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;The only future to master is one&#039;s own. The [[fandom|humans]] understand this. Yet they also understand that [[The Transformers (franchise)|the past]] is the genesis of all things, and must be [[GEEWUN|afforded proper deference]].&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
:-&#039;&#039;&#039;Movie Optimus Prime&#039;&#039;&#039; is willing to segue into a Generation One epilogue...but he&#039;s going to be meta about it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Notes==&lt;br /&gt;
===Continuity notes===&lt;br /&gt;
*The Cybertron portion of the game occurs between &#039;&#039;War for Cybertron&#039;&#039; and &#039;&#039;Fall of Cybertron&#039;&#039; – the &#039;&#039;[[Ark (WFC)|Ark]]&#039;&#039; is under construction, [[Trypticon (WFC)|Trypticon]] still lies where he crashed, and we see Shockwave discover the [[Insecticon (WFC)|Insecticons]] for the first time. However, there are two notable inconsistencies – see &#039;Errors&#039; below.&lt;br /&gt;
*The &#039;&#039;Age of Extinction&#039;&#039; story, meanwhile, is utterly irreconcilable with the events of the film – the Autobots have an existing alliance with the [[Dinobot (AOE)|Dinobots]], and Optimus Prime and Bumblebee sport the new bodies they acquire during the film, yet Lockdown is perfectly alive and Prime is active on Earth. Stinger&#039;s brief cameo as a mercenary is similarly impossible to reconcile (although KSI could have plagarized Stinger&#039;s model.)&lt;br /&gt;
*Audio logs speak of the [[Patterner]]s and [[Galvatron (COP)|Galvatron]] indicating that studies of the [[Dark Spark]] took place during the Age of Origins in &#039;&#039;[[Transformers: The Covenant of Primus|The Covenant of Primus]]&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
*Starscream sarcastically makes note of how Soundwave is becoming a &amp;quot;conversationalist&amp;quot;, likely alluding to the vow of silence he takes and employs during the [[Transformers: Prime (cartoon)|&#039;&#039;Prime&#039;&#039;]] cartoon.&lt;br /&gt;
*Like his [[Drift (G1)|namesake]], [[Drift (AOE)|Drift]] was once a Decepticon before switching allegiance to join the Autobots, as noted by [[Lockdown (ROTF)|Lockdown]] when the former was held captive. Whether this background also applies to the film is unknown, given the above differences in the continuity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Transformers references===&lt;br /&gt;
*Shockwave quotes his motto from his toy&#039;s [[bio]] &amp;quot;Clarity of thought before rashness of action&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
*Ironhide and Sideswipe both paraphrase Ironhide&#039;s motto from his original bio &amp;quot;High-tech circuitry is no replacement for guts&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
*Blast Off quotes his motto from his original bio &amp;quot;I destroy Autobots by choice, not command&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
*Swindle mentions Starscream freeing the Combaticons from the Decepticon brig, a reference to the origin of the Combaticons in the G1 cartoon episode &amp;quot;[[Starscream&#039;s Brigade]]&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Errors===&lt;br /&gt;
*Despite the game&#039;s script clearly positioning it before the events of &#039;&#039;Fall of Cybertron&#039;&#039;, Megatron is depicted in the new body he acquired only part-way through that game.&lt;br /&gt;
*Ironhide and Sideswipe encounter an Insecticon Bruiser despite Shockwave creating them in FOC. &lt;br /&gt;
*The live-action film universe Matrix of Leadership uses the model from the Aligned games, rather than the very different Matrix design first seen in &#039;&#039;[[Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (film)|Revenge of the Fallen]]&#039;&#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
*Lockdown&#039;s model has a Decepticon insignia and is undersized.&lt;br /&gt;
*Although he can fly, Shockwave remains on the ground when delivering the Dark Spark to Megatron. It is revealed two chapters later, that &amp;quot;if the Dark Spark were to be dropped from height it would cause massive damage to Kaon.&amp;quot; This is an error because in chapter 4 he &#039;&#039;jumps off a ledge and into a gorge&#039;&#039;, appearing to be hurt when he lands, with no consequences at all.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Trivia===&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;Rise of the Dark Spark&#039;&#039; marks a [[PlayStation]] 4 milestone by being the very first game to support the PlayStation Store pre-loading feature introduced in the console&#039;s 1.70 update.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;[http://blog.us.playstation.com/2014/06/18/pre-order-pre-load-upcoming-ps4-games/ PlayStation Blog: Pre-Order, Pre-Load Upcoming PS4 Games]&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
*The game reuses a large portion of existing game assets from &#039;&#039;[[Transformers: Fall of Cybertron]]&#039;&#039;, such as character models, environmental textures, animation cycles, control sequences and weapons. In contrast, the majority of assets freshly created to represent the AOE scenarios do not match the quality of the re-used assets, and even go as far as to reskin a number of them.&lt;br /&gt;
**The Crystal Guardians the Decepticons face in chapter 2 are all [[generic]]s with the [[body-type]] of [[Sentinel Zeta Prime|Zeta Prime]].&lt;br /&gt;
**Grimlock&#039;s AOE iteration in the game is a complete reskin of his depiction from &#039;&#039;Fall of Cybertron&#039;&#039;, meaning he retains all his animations and attacks from that game, despite using a mace rather than a sword. This does not stop him from somehow stabbing enemies with the aforementioned mace, and also results in an unusual transformation, with Grimlock&#039;s parts flipping around randomly before suddenly swapping models from T-Rex to Robot mode.&lt;br /&gt;
*As a shout-out, some of the playable characters quote their [[Generation 1 continuity family|Generation 1]] bios, notably Shockwave chiding Starscream with, &amp;quot;Clarity of thought before rashness of action.&amp;quot; and Blast Off telling Swindle, &amp;quot;I destroy Autobots by choice, not command.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
*The game notably features the return of the use of &amp;quot;[[Slag (slang)|slag]]&amp;quot; as a common expletive, having been replaced with &amp;quot;[[scrap]]&amp;quot; for the majority of the Aligned continuity thus far.&lt;br /&gt;
*In the first level of the game there&#039;s a billboard that reads, &amp;quot;Vote Berger for Mayor&amp;quot;, an obvious reference to the [[The Transformers (cartoon)|original &#039;&#039;The Transformers&#039;&#039; cartoon]] character [[Shawn Berger]], who expressed such mayoral desires in the two-part episode &amp;quot;[[Megatron&#039;s Master Plan, Part 1|Megatron&#039;s Master Plan]]&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
*During Escalation, Earth characters are noticeably bigger than Cybertron characters with Earth Optimus hilariously towering over Warpath.&lt;br /&gt;
*This game marks the first time Shockwave and Sharpshot are playable in a Story mode, as well as the first instance of Hardshell speaking.&lt;br /&gt;
*While not quite an error, it is worth noting that the relationship between Bumblebee and Drift is much more friendly than in the movie. Lockdown also is very different. In the game, greed and personal power seems to be his primary motivation, while in the movie Lockdown simply wanted fair payment for his services as he talks about how inferior humans are and how he thinks extremely highly of his creators.&lt;br /&gt;
*[[Steve Blum]] really gets his work cut out for him, since he gets more than an entire level dedicated to his three characters, Swindle, Sharpshot, and Shockwave. [[Scott McNeil]] would be proud!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Foreign names===&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;Europe:&#039;&#039; &#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;Transformers: The Dark Spark&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;

&#039;&#039;&#039;[[Bumblebee (Movie)|Bumblebee]]&#039;&#039;&#039; is the star of a [[Live-action film series|multibillion-dollar film franchise]], and as such has an ungodly amount of toys and memorabilia!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Seriously, he&#039;s probably got more than [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys|Optimus Prime]] by now.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He is one of two characters (the other being [[Optimus Prime (Movie)/toys|Optimus Prime]]) to have at least one toy in every size class.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Bumblebee (Movie)/toys#Notes|Even &#039;&#039;Hasbro&#039;&#039; admits that the amount of toys &#039;Bee has is ridiculous.]]&lt;br /&gt;

===Legends Class toys===&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Bumblebeemovielegends.jpg|upright=1.66|thumb|It&#039;s not a fiesta with racing stripes... it&#039;s a fiesta OF racing stripes!]]&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;Bumblebee&#039;&#039;&#039; (Legends Class, 2007)&lt;br /&gt;
**&#039;&#039;Japanese name:&#039;&#039; &#039;&#039;&#039;EZ Collection Bumblebee&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: Legends Bumblebee transforms into a yellow 1976 Chevrolet Camaro. Being a highly simplified toy of a highly complex design, Legends-class Bumblebee does not replicate the appearance of the [[robot mode]] very well, and has very limited articulation, detail and paint applications. Due to his simpified transformation, his hands are exposed on the vehicle bumper, and due to how the arms are molded, the headlights is making the robot mode like he&#039;s wielding a pair of guns. On the other hand, he&#039;s pocket-sized and inexpensive, perfect for the younger set. The toy has a sculpted rear window, but it&#039;s not painted like the other windows. instead, the racing stripes extend over them.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: The toy was also released in both different ways in Japan: the Hasbro version was initially released as a giveaway for the customers who purchased the Movie toys worth 3000 yen in the Transformers First Impact 0602 event held in Ikebukuro Toys &amp;quot;R&amp;quot; Us store at June 2 in midnight, with the package completely unchanged with an exception of the sticker covering the back to identify that this was a giveaway. The toy was also later released as part of the blind-packed EZ Collection lineup, distributed via TakaraTomy&#039;s subsidiary Subarudo.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: He was later redecoed into [[Cliffjumper (Movie)#Legends Class toys|Cliffjumper]].&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
: A Japanese-exclusive version of the Legends Bumblebee toy, Bumblebee Scanning Version (バンブルビー　スキャニング Ver.) uses transparent plastics for his yellow parts. He was available as a freebie for the September 2007 issue of the &#039;&#039;Hyper Hobby&#039;&#039; magazine. The toy itself is almost entirely unpainted, save for some metallic blue for his eyes, and silver for his face and for the tampographed Autobot symbol on his chest.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: At least a small number of unsold units were available in some hobby shops in Asia. Fortunately, they&#039;re sold in the similar price to current Legion Class figures.&lt;br /&gt;

: Bumblebee Metallic Version (バンブルビー メタリック Ver.) was a Japanese-exclusive metallic redeco of Legends Class Bumblebee included with purchase of the 2007 Movie DVD at Tsutaya Records stores. It should be noted that this figure was also the first mold to feature painted rear windows.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
: As part of the &#039;&#039;AllSpark Battles&#039;&#039; Legends two-packs, a slightly redecoed Legends Class Bumblebee, now sporting &amp;quot;battle damage&amp;quot; paint applications (which had taken cues to the Deluxe Class figure below) and painted rear windows, comes with an all-new Legends [[Scorponok (Movie)|Scorponok]] figure.&lt;br /&gt;

*&#039;&#039;&#039;Bumblebee&#039;&#039;&#039; (Deluxe Class Classic Camaro, 2007)&lt;br /&gt;
**&#039;&#039;Japanese Release Date&#039;&#039;: [[2007]]-[[June 2|06-02]]&lt;br /&gt;
**&#039;&#039;Japanese ID number:&#039;&#039; &#039;&#039;&#039;MA-03&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
**&#039;&#039;Accessories:&#039;&#039; 2 projectiles&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: The first Deluxe Class version of Movie Bumblebee transforms into a yellow [[wikipedia:Second-generation Chevrolet Camaro|1976 Chevrolet Camaro]] with a quite reasonable level of sculpted detail. In contrast to the other Deluxe-class car Transformers in the Movie toyline, he does not have clear windows, instead opting for opaque yellow plastic with painted metallic blue.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: Bumblebee is armed with two shoulder-mounted spring-loaded missile launchers (inspired by the shoulder-mounted missile launchers he uses to fight Brawl/Devastator in the movie), which also double as hand-held weapons or can be mounted on ports on the undersides of his elbows. His legs and chest [[Automorph Technology|Automorph]] during transformation.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: The initial release of the toy featured even tabs for the Automorph gimmick; oddly, Hasbro later decided to [[retool]] the feature so the tab would be uneven.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;[http://www.allspark.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=29613 Original Allspark thread about the retool of Bumblebee&#039;s Automorph gimmick]&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; This resulted in many reported cases of the tab snapping during transformation. Press the button or you&#039;ll break him. Seriously. The retooled Automorph gimmick would be used for all subsequent versions of the mold, including a small number of Japanese releases, and the breakage problem wouldn&#039;t be fixed until the UK exclusive &amp;quot;Towed to Safety&amp;quot; two-pack and the Target exclusive &amp;quot;Evolution of a Hero&amp;quot; two-pack.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: Packaging photos and early [[Prototype|test shots]] of Hasbro&#039;s Bumblebee featured transparent blue plastic windows and missile parts. However, the final Hasbro production toy has opaque yellow plastic. The Japanese [[TakaraTomy]] release of Bumblebee retains the transparent blue plastic parts, with yellow paint for the outer car shell. As a consequence, the missiles, which are on the same sprue, are also made of clear blue plastic, just like the early prototype seen in the Hasbro stock photos for the toy. He also uses the retooled version of the mold with the fixed Automorph gimmick. The original Hasbro mold also saw release in Japan 10 years later, as part of the Amazon Japan exclusive 3-pack (see below).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Both the prototype figures and the latest stock photos had the chest slightly mistransformed, which the headlights can be pulled down while in robot mode. It should be noted that the extra yellow paint apps seen on the prototype&#039;s legs are not present in the final product, probably due to budget cuts or unpaintable plastic. The &amp;quot;battle damage&amp;quot; paint app seen on the left side of the car roof varies from different copies of the toy: One contains the faded paint (which affects it&#039;s symmetry on the roof), and one features a small faded round half dot on the lower front car roof.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The packaging used for the Japanese toy is the same as for the Hasbro version, with the exception of additional stickers identifying it as a Japanese market release.&lt;br /&gt;

**&#039;&#039;Accessories:&#039;&#039; 2 projectiles&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: This battle pack contains the 1976 Camaro Deluxe Class Bumblebee and the Deluxe Class [[Barricade (Movie)/toys#Deluxe Class toys|Barricade]]/[[Frenzy (Movie)|Frenzy]] figures, based upon their confrontation as seen in the movie. The box features a diorama-style background from a movie scene, but the toys themselves are unchanged from their original carded releases.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: The set originally retailed for only slightly less than buying the two individual toys. However, for a short while, it was about the only way to &#039;&#039;get&#039;&#039; Bumblebee in the first place, thanks to the [[Movie (toyline)|toy drought]] following the movie&#039;s record-smashing opening.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
: A redeco of the Japanese version of the Classic Camaro Bumblebee sculpt, Bumblebee Limited Metallic Color Version (バンブルビー限定メタリックカラー Ver., &#039;&#039;Bumblebee Gentei Metallic Color Ver.&#039;&#039;) was exclusively available with the purchase of a ticket for the movie in Japanese Lawson stores.

**&#039;&#039;Accessories:&#039;&#039; 2 projectiles&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: This set features an unaltered Deluxe Class [[Longarm (Movie)#TowedToSafety|Longarm]] figure and a Deluxe Class 1976 Camaro Bumblebee figure. The window box features a diorama background of the battle in [[Mission City]] (basically the same packaging inner tray from the &amp;quot;Bumblebee vs. Barricade: First Encounter&amp;quot; pack). As is generally the case with the European releases of the Movie toys, the pictures on the front of the box show the robot mode toys instead of an artist&#039;s depiction of their faces.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: For this two-pack, Hasbro slightly retooled Bumblebee&#039;s Automorph gimmick again, adding another small tab that finally resolved the breakage issues that had plagued the previous variation of the mold.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;[http://www.allspark.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=38149 Allspark thread about the second retool of Bumblebee&#039;s Automorph gimmick]&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

[[File:Movie Deluxe 2009 Bumblebee toy.jpg|upright=1.66|thumb|Nu-uh! You don&#039;t want none of this!]]&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;Bumblebee&#039;&#039;&#039; (Deluxe Class, 2007)&lt;br /&gt;
**&#039;&#039;Japanese Name&#039;&#039;: &#039;&#039;&#039;New Bumblebee&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
**&#039;&#039;Japanese Release Date&#039;&#039;: [[2007]]-[[August 9|08-09]]&lt;br /&gt;
**&#039;&#039;Japanese ID number:&#039;&#039; &#039;&#039;&#039;MA-10&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
**&#039;&#039;Accessories:&#039;&#039; [[Plasma cannon]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: The second Deluxe Class Bumblebee toy, which shares no parts with the previous one (even the head, despite being based on the same general design, is a different sculpt), transforms into the [[wikipedia:Fifth-generation Chevrolet Camaro|concept vehicle for the 2009 Chevrolet Camaro]]. Maintaining the high standard for car accuracy in the movie line, Bumblebee is very faithful to the real-life vehicle, featuring clear blue windows in contrast to the opaque windows seen in both his previous Deluxe class toy and the Ultimate Bumblebee toy.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: Bumblebee features two [[Automorph Technology|Automorphing]] gimmicks during transformation: &#039;&#039;(a)&#039;&#039; swinging his hood down into robot mode position also moves his arms up and &#039;&#039;(b)&#039;&#039;, swinging his feet down will move the rear fenders up and behind his calves, as well as swinging the rear windows to his inner calves in a spring-loaded action. Unusually, this version of Bumblebee is much more accurate to the CGI design than either the older-model Deluxe OR the Ultimate figure, with the chest properly articulating in a fairly Movie-accurate manner. He&#039;s also slightly taller than most of the other Deluxe Class figures. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: Bumblebee features a superb range of articulation, with ball joints in his shoulders, neck, torso, wrists and upper legs, with ratcheting and swivels making up the remaining joints. Instead of the rather inaccurate missile launchers from the 1976 Camaro toy, &#039;09 Bumblebee comes with a mostly accurate version of his plasma cannon as it appears in the movie, but for added play value, it can Automorph into an energy blade by opening up the halves of the gun barrel and swinging them back. The cannon can be held in either of his hands.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: Care should be taken when removing the cannon from Bumblebee&#039;s hands, as excessive force can damage the wrist ball joint socket.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: Contrary to popular opinion, the yellow pieces on the back of Bumblebee&#039;s feet are &#039;&#039;not&#039;&#039; supposed to be heel spurs, nor have they been mis-assembled. They are supposed to fold up to emulate the detail found on the CGI design.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: A running change version of this sculpt adds sculpted pupils to Bumblebee&#039;s eyes. A &#039;&#039;second&#039;&#039; running change adds tabs to the hip panels, which makes the [[alternate mode|vehicle mode]] hold together better.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;conceptvariant&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/showthread.php?t=144325 TFW2005 thread about the retool for the second Deluxe Bumblebee toy]&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Initially this was believed to be a variant for the Japanese market; however, later shipments of the Hasbro toy featured those changes as well, as did all subsequent versions of the sculpt.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: This sculpt was also used to make &amp;quot;Allspark Power&amp;quot; [[Cliffjumper (Movie)#Deluxe Class toys|Cliffjumper]].&lt;br /&gt;

**&#039;&#039;Accessories:&#039;&#039; 2 projectiles, Plasma cannon&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: A Target exclusive, this figure multi-pack contains an unchanged Deluxe-class 1976 Bumblebee and an exclusive &amp;quot;battle damaged&amp;quot; 2009 Camaro Concept Bumblebee. Even though the 2009 figure is supposed to represent Bumblebee&#039;s damaged state as he appeared during the final battle in the movie, oddly enough the &amp;quot;damage&amp;quot; paint decos do not appear to extend to his legs, restricting themselves to his upper torso and car roof/door parts. Maybe they didn&#039;t bother because they thought you&#039;d take them off like in the movie. Go figure.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The Classic Camaro Bumblebee toy included in this package features the same &amp;quot;fixed&amp;quot; Automorph gimmick also found on the version included in the UK exclusive &amp;quot;Towed to Safety&amp;quot; two-pack. In addition, the Automorph button on the hood &#039;&#039;finally&#039;&#039; sports the painted pinstripes that had been missing on &#039;&#039;all&#039;&#039; previous releases of the sculpt.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:This two-pack was available as a Target exclusive in the USA, as a Zellers exclusive in Canada (in English-only packaging), as a Tesco exclusive in the United Kingdom and Ireland, and as an exclusive to stores that were members of either the Idee + Spiel or Vedes trade associations (which were cooperating at the time) in Germany. All international versions came in English-only US-style packaging, but lacked the &amp;quot;Only at Target&amp;quot; sticker.&lt;br /&gt;

**&#039;&#039;Accessories:&#039;&#039; Plasma cannon&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: A more [[show-accuracy|screen-accurate]] [[redeco]] of Camaro Concept Deluxe Class Bumblebee, with all the original version&#039;s black plastic parts save for the wheels changed to gray, and all black [[paint operation]]s save for the racing stripes in vehicle mode and the [[license plate]] on the robot mode&#039;s abdomen also changed to gray accordingly. In addition, the translucent parts are now an ever-so-slightly greener shade of blue. The only other change beyond that is the addition of a new [[tampograph]]ed red Autobot symbol on his forehead.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: This &#039;&#039;Screen Battles&#039;&#039; pack (or &amp;quot;Battle Scenes&amp;quot; in Europe) also includes with non-[[articulation|poseable]] figurines of [[Sector Seven]] agent [[Seymour Simmons]] and two Sector Seven soldiers; one carrying a cryo-freezing cannon and one carrying a grenade launcher.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: This set comes in a special window box featuring a diorama background of the scene in which Bumblebee is captured by Sector Seven forces.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: According to details listed in an official checklist on Hasbro&#039;s website,&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;checklist&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[http://web.archive.org/web/20080920112933/http://www.hasbro.com/transformers/default.cfm?page=Collectors/Checklist Hasbro checklist] featuring Screen Battles sets with additional extras&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; this pack was originally supposed to feature &amp;quot;ice soldiers&amp;quot; (plural), in addition to an &amp;quot;S7 agent&amp;quot; and an &amp;quot;S7 soldier&amp;quot;. Apparently budget ultimately only allowed for one. The grenade launcher-wielding S7 soldier also looks conspicuously like [[William Lennox|Captain Lennox]] colored as a Sector Seven soldier (it&#039;s possible that the figure had originally been intended for the Screen Battles &amp;quot;Desert Attack&amp;quot; pack with [[Scorponok (Movie)|Scorponok]], which was supposed to contain &#039;&#039;four&#039;&#039; soldier figures according to the same Hasbro checklist&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;checklist&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;).&lt;br /&gt;

: Stealth Bumblebee is an extensive redeco and minor retool of the Deluxe Class Concept Camaro Bumblebee toy. The redeco itself is unusual in that the yellow parts are still cast in yellow plastic, but painted black. Other color differences include changing the robot mode body parts from black to gray and adding bright blue &#039;&#039;AllSpark Power&#039;&#039; decos. &lt;br /&gt;

*&#039;&#039;&#039;Final Stand&#039;&#039;&#039; (Screen Battles, 2007)&lt;br /&gt;
**&#039;&#039;Japanese ID number:&#039;&#039; &#039;&#039;&#039;SB-02&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: This &#039;&#039;Screen Battles&#039;&#039; pack (or &amp;quot;Battle Scenes&amp;quot; in Europe) comes with an altered [[Longarm (Movie)|Longarm]] toy and a posable, non-transforming, battle-damaged Bumblebee figure very similar to the &#039;&#039;Robot Replicas&#039;&#039; toy, yet surprisingly utilizing none of the same parts despite being on an identical scale. This set comes in a special window box featuring a diorama background of the battle in Mission City.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Although entirely composed of original sculpting, such as the gimpy leg-stumps, the Bumblebee figure oddly does not feature the character&#039;s distinctive car door &amp;quot;wings&amp;quot; on his back. However, keen [[customizing|customisers]] can easily rectify this by slicing the &amp;quot;Robot Replicas&amp;quot; version&#039;s wings off and whittling their connecting plastic into simple posts that very handily plug into large holes in the tires on Final Stand &#039;Bee&#039;s back. In fact, these holes almost seem designed to accommodate a missing part. (Considering how all the other Screen Battles sets were apparently originally intended to feature more, or at least more elaborate, accessory figures based on their entries in an official checklist on Hasbro&#039;s website,&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;checklist&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; this seems indeed very plausible.)&lt;br /&gt;

===Ultimate===&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Ultimate Bumblebee toy.jpg|upright=1.66|thumb|All those extras and they couldn&#039;t make me more accurate than the deluxe class toy.]]&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;Ultimate Bumblebee&#039;&#039;&#039; (Ultimate, 2007)&lt;br /&gt;
**&#039;&#039;Accessories:&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: Similar in appearance to the second Deluxe-class Bumblebee toy, albeit much larger and more complex, the &#039;Ultimate&#039; version of Bumblebee also transforms into the 2009 concept Camaro. The toy features animatronic movement in robot mode (flapping wings, moving arms and a rotating head) and light-up eyes and headlights, activated by the movement or sounds made by the person playing with the toy, or by pressing his buttons, which also activate an obscene number of interactive electronic sound effects. Oddly enough, despite being mute for most of the movie, Bumblebee has a wide range of phrases. His chest button yields various phrases and a new version of the &#039;&#039;Transformers&#039;&#039; theme tune, while a button on his side produces blaster noises, more speech, and musical samples, including four different ones from Devo&#039;s &amp;quot;Whip It.&amp;quot; This button also causes the toy to raise its cannon-arm and automatically fire a missile. Playing with the toy by moving it will make him repeat various phrases and samples activated by other features, as well as crashing battle noises, but when he is left idle, more unique phrases will be uttered inquiring where everyone has gone, as well as radio snippets to the same effect, before the toy eventually deactivates. Pressing any button will bring him back online with a cheerful shout.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: Transforming the toy between modes is accompanied by the classic transformation noise, and if left unattended between modes, it will make stalling engine noises, car horn and a car alarm sounds. Once in car mode, new electronics are unlocked, beginning with the sound of an engine starting up. The chest button now activates the car&#039;s horn, and rolling the figure along will create an accelerating noise that increases the faster the toy is moved. More unique musical snippets will play as the car rolls along; when the rolling stops, brake lights activate and the tires screech. Yet more sounds are produced when Bumblebee is rolled backwards, and the car mode also features different crashing battle noises to the robot mode.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: All of the toy&#039;s features can be turned off by a switch, and it has an additional &amp;quot;Try Me&amp;quot; mode which allows you to hear various sounds from the toy&#039;s various functions just by pressing the chest button.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: The toy is mistransformed in the package, and all promo photos of the figure made the same mistake, presenting the car hood as a solid block resting on Bumblebee&#039;s chest. In reality, it splits up into five separate pieces to fold and collapse into a more movie-like appearance.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: In the holiday season, Wal-Mart carried an exclusive &amp;quot;Bonus Buy&amp;quot; version of the toy, which had the Deluxe [[Brawl (Movie)|Brawl]] and [[Scorponok (Movie)|Scorponok]] toys added as freebies. Costco also carried an exclusive version, with the 3&amp;quot; [[Titanium Series]] version of Bumblebee packed in. However, it did not include the display stand.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The projectile included with this figure is the same mold included with several [[Attacktix]] figures like the [[Decepticlone]], Omnicon, Vehicle Mode [[Megatron (Armada)|Megatron]], and a few others.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
:[[Fast Action Battlers]] Bumblebee transforms from concept Camaro to robot with a considerably simpler transformation than the standard deluxe toy, intended for the slightly younger set. His main &amp;quot;gimmick&amp;quot; is a spring-loaded missile launcher in his right arm. As is also the case with Ultimate Bumblebee, the toy is mis-transformed in the package, and all promo photos of the figure make the same mistake, presenting the car hood as a solid block. In reality, the chest/bumper consists of two rotating pieces which can pivot down so as to more accurately emulate the appearance in the movie.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
:The second [[Cyber Slammers]] Bumblebee figure toy transforms into a Concept Camaro and shares no parts with the previous Cyber Slammers Bumblebee figure. Like all Cyber Slammers, the toy features motorized action. When you push down on the car, it zooms forward, then pops up into robot mode! Sure to please the toddler you brought with you to the PG-13 movie. Like most Cyber Slammers, Bumblebee manages to cram most of his vehicle mode&#039;s major details into a compact, super-deformed version of that mode.&lt;br /&gt;

**&#039;&#039;Accessories:&#039;&#039; Display stand&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: [[Trans-scan]]ning Bumblebee is a Japanese-exclusive figure with many interchangeable parts. At its most basic, the figure is a spindly skeleton referred to as a &amp;quot;Core Body&amp;quot;. To this skeleton, two sets of armor pieces can be attached to create one of two forms for Bumblebee: his [[protoform]] mode or his Earth mode.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: The protoform mode consists of eight pieces of golden 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 &amp;quot;transformation&amp;quot; into his meteor-like &amp;quot;entry mode,&amp;quot; accomplished by doing little more than tucking the head out of sight and folding the chest back. This golden-and-grey lump can be mounted on a three-piece stand that comes with the figure, allowing you to display it in mid-plummet. Bumblebee&#039;s Earth mode, meanwhile, is made up of nineteen armor pieces (including a particularly large backpack) that form a rather [[Kibble|kibbly]] robot mode, which can then transform into a Camaro Concept.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: Bumblebee 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 [[Optimus Prime (Movie)/toys|Optimus Prime]] figure.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
: As part of the [[Robot Replicas]] sub-line, this version of concept-Camaro Bumblebee is a non-transforming action figure that hews very close to the movie&#039;s CGI model. It features joints similar to the [[Revoltech]] toys, plus his right forearm can be replaced with his blaster-arm (or any other arm attachments from other Robot Replicas, which could lead to some fun Frankensteins). For some reason, he&#039;s closer to orange than his normal yellow.&lt;br /&gt;

The three-function infrared remote, in Bumblebee&#039;s signature colors, gives you control of the car with forward and reverse turn movement.

The tip of the gun barrel can also be unscrewed, revealing a pen (!) inside.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
:&#039;&#039;Revenge of the Fallen&#039;&#039; Legends class Bumblebee is based upon the updated Camaro Concept featured in the movie (unlike the 2007 Legends class Bumblebee which was based on the 1976 Camaro). Compared to the previous Movie Legends, he has better, more accurate detailing and proportions (or as accurate as can be obtained at this [[size class|price point]]).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The [[:File:ROTF Legends Bumblebee HTS.jpg|second batch of stock photos of the toy]], which depict a [[prototype|(pre-)production sample]], show it in a much brighter shade of yellow plastic than it was released as.

&lt;br /&gt;
:There are a few problems on the toy&#039;s vehicle mode: Probably due to tolerances, There are difficulties for perfectly aligning the wings/side windows with the legs/rear windows during transformation.&lt;br /&gt;

:Released as part of a &amp;quot;preview&amp;quot; [[wave]] of the &#039;&#039;[[Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (toyline)|Revenge of the Fallen]]&#039;&#039; Deluxe Class assortment alongside [[Soundwave (ROTF)|Soundwave]], Bumblebee is a relatively major retool of the Camaro Concept Bumblebee mold, feature a new vehicle front end, hood and wheels to reflect the changes to the prop vehicle used in the movie; and in robot mode has a new, more accurate head sculpt.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:His right arm has also been replaced by an all-new sculpt which substitutes the hand and the hand-held converting plasma cannon/blade weapon from the previous version for a built-in plasma cannon with a spring-loaded firing gimmick for the included missile.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The initial production run included a missile that was slightly too long for the slot inside the arm, so it either has to be slightly cut down to fit or the cannon must be swiveled outwards to accommodate the missile. This was fixed by a [[variant|running change]] that saw the missile slightly shortened, thus removing the problem.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;missile1&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[http://www.seibertron.com/transformers/toys/revenge-of-the-fallen/bumblebee/1757/ Seibertron.com gallery of &#039;&#039;Revenge of the Fallen&#039;&#039; &amp;quot;Preview&amp;quot; Bumblebee], depicting the early version with a slightly too long missile.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;missile2&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[http://www.bwtf.com/toyreviews/rotf/deluxe/bumblebee/ BWTF review of &#039;&#039;Revenge of the Fallen&#039;&#039; &amp;quot;Preview&amp;quot; Bumblebee], depicting the later version with a missile that fits in without a problem.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;missile3&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[http://snakas.web.fc2.com/09movie/ra03bumblebee.html Autobase Aichi gallery of &#039;&#039;Revenge of the Fallen&#039;&#039; &amp;quot;Preview&amp;quot; Bumblebee], featuring a comparison of both versions of the missile.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; The later, corrected version was also released in other markets such as Japan and Europe.

&lt;br /&gt;
:This heavy retool of Bumblebee changes the entire upper half of the robot mode, and thus half of the car, to newly designed parts (essentially, only the legs are recycled from &#039;&#039;Movie&#039;&#039; Concept Camaro Bumblebee and the previous &#039;&#039;Revenge of the Fallen&#039;&#039; Bumblebee; everything else is an entirely new sculpt), including more articulated arms with open palms, less obstructive vehicle [[kibble]], a differently transforming chest, and two flip-out (non-firing) missile launcher racks behind his head. Interestingly, his arms can be detached and easily popped onto the original mold, resulting in a more [[show-accuracy|show-accurate]] robot mode, though this sacrifices transformation. This extensive retooling results in a car interior with seats and a crude dashboard, but the windows are so opaque that these new details can&#039;t easily be seen. A [[variant]] with clear blue windows was released in later shipments.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;cannonbee&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[http://www.seibertron.com/transformers/toys/revenge-of-the-fallen/cannon-bumblebee/1855/2/92/ Comparison between both versions of &#039;&#039;Revenge of the Fallen&#039;&#039; Cannon Bumblebee.]&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:His &amp;quot;heels&amp;quot; are assembled backwards, which keeps them from being folded up against the back of the shins. Disappointingly, his chest cannot deform like the previous releases of this mold (or his Fast Action Battler, which still has a deforming chest).&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
:A minor redeco and retool Cannon Bumblebee that replaces the head sculpt with the much smaller battle mask head previously used by Stealth Bumblebee and Premium Bumblebee from the 2007 movie line. The base plastic colors and matching paint colors are virtually identical to those of Cannon Bumblebee, as are the [[Paint operation|paint masks]] for the most part. Aside from the head, the only differences are different paint choices in the abdominal section (the license plate, the sculpted cylinders above the license plate and the crotch plate below the gas cap), the front sides of the shoulder cannons (painted black on Cannon Bumblebee, painted red on Battlefield Bumblebee) and a different size and placement for the [[tampograph]]ed Autobot [[insignia|logo]] (on the side of Cannon Bumblebee&#039;s left shoulder cannon panel, on the front end of Battlefield Bumblebee&#039;s vehicle mode hood/robot mode chest).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Battlefield Bumblebee was only available in a two-pack with a redecoed [[Soundwave (ROTF)#Infiltration|Soundwave]], named &amp;quot;Infiltration Soundwave&amp;quot;. The North American version of the two-pack also included a &amp;quot;Mission Guide&amp;quot; catalog and ordering form for the mail-in exclusive [[Ravage (ROTF)#ReconRavage|Recon Ravage]], a &amp;quot;starter sticker&amp;quot; for said ordering form, and a [[N.E.S.T.

**&#039;&#039;Japanese ID number:&#039;&#039; &#039;&#039;&#039;RA-21&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
**&#039;&#039;Accessories:&#039;&#039; 2 Missiles&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Human Alliance Bumblebee comes with a posable figure of [[Sam Witwicky]] that can fit inside in Bumblebee&#039;s vehicle mode (plugging into his seat via a small hole in his back) and drive him. In robot mode, Bumblebee&#039;s vehicle mode seats end up on his arms, and Sam can sit in either of them; the seat on Bumblebee&#039;s right has a headrest that can fold down to look slightly less conspicuous in robot mode, while the seat on Bumblebee&#039;s left arm features a pair of cannons which flip over Sam&#039;s shoulders, offering him some offensive hardware to protect his rather precarious position. These cannons can also be flipped down further to form some over-the-shoulder restraints. Sam can also stand on a platform that flips out from the small of Bumblebee&#039;s back (again, via peg-holes on his feet), manning a small non-firing cannon that flips out over Bumblebee&#039;s right shoulder. Finally, Bumblebee&#039;s left palm also contains a peg, meaning Sam can securely stand or sit in his big buddy&#039;s hand. Bumblebee himself features a spring-loaded cannon for his right arm, which can fire the two missiles the figure comes with, a flip-out double-barreled silver cannon that points over his head, and a functional flip-down battle mask. Much like the rest of his Human Alliance brethren, Bumblebee is roughly the same size as an &#039;&#039;[[Transformers: Alternators|Alternators]]&#039;&#039; toy, being slightly taller than &#039;&#039;Alternators&#039;&#039; [[Mirage (G1)|Mirage]] in robot mode.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:[[File:Human Alliance Bumblebee Prototype.jpg|thumb|upright=0.85|left|Modders, vindicated by the prototype.]]&lt;br /&gt;
:There is a significant [[misassembly]] issue with Bumblebee: according to TakaraTomy&#039;s images of the resin [[prototype]] as well as Bumblebee&#039;s CG design, the retail toy&#039;s legs are on the wrong sides of his body, so the details on his legs are inverted. Since the instructions reflect this assembly, it&#039;s possible that this was [[design change|done on purpose]] because with the toy in its originally intended assembly, the waist section could be rather difficult to transform for children. The toy&#039;s originally intended assembly can still be [http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/radicons-customs/243649-human-alliance-bumblebee-leg-mod.html easily achieved by disassembling his crotch and reassembling the legs backwards.] Once this is complete, Bumblebee will look the way he was intended to look, while adding some minor extra steps during transformation.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
:Plonk him down. Lift him up. Plonk him down. Lift him up. This addictive toy transforms automatically when stood up (vehicle to robot), or placed on his back (robot to vehicle). A switch underneath his feet or his car mode releases the transformation — so the toy can be played with in relatively stable modes if held in the air, or just rolling along the ground.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Because gravity is the powering force in the transformation there&#039;s no motors to wear out or batteries to use up when playing with the toy. Which is good, because you will be transforming him no less than nine million times.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Bumblebee features dumpy proportions and low movie accuracy (no door wings here), forced upon the toy to accommodate the [[Gravity Bot]]s transformation gimmick. His robot mode has no articulation, not even head. But at least he has big feet! Or legs... or whatever the heck they are. Stump? At least he has a big stump.&lt;br /&gt;

*&#039;&#039;&#039;Battle Blade Bumblebee&#039;&#039;&#039; (Deluxe, 2010)&lt;br /&gt;
**&#039;&#039;Japanese ID number:&#039;&#039; &#039;&#039;&#039;AA-02&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:This entirely new Deluxe Class Bumblebee figure for the [[Transformers (2010 toyline)|2010 &#039;&#039;Transformers&#039;&#039; toy line]] features a much more accurate and articulated sculpt in robot mode compared to previous versions of Deluxe class Camaro Concept Bumblebee, with the [[transformation scheme]] taking many cues from &#039;&#039;Revenge of the Fallen&#039;&#039; Human Alliance Bumblebee, scaled down to Deluxe size, while using an [[Automorph Technology|Automorph]] design for the leg transformation directly based on the original Deluxe Class Concept Camaro Bumblebee. Despite the very similar looks, Battle Blade Bumblebee uses no parts from previous toys; everything about him is an entirely new sculpt.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:His right hand can be switched out for his cannon by opening the arm guard, flipping out the cannon barrel, folding away the right hand and folding the cannon over to the wrist. Due to how the parts were distributed on the plastic sprues during production, the cannon barrel is yellow rather than grey. The left arm-guard has a flip-out axe made of translucent blue plastic, representing the axe weapon Bumblebee uses in the [[Revenge of the Fallen (video games)|&#039;&#039;Revenge of the Fallen&#039;&#039; video games]], which itself may have been based upon the electrical [[Stinger (weapon)|stinger]] that was once considered as a melee weapon for Bumblebee in the first movie. The axe is spring-loaded, activated by a button on his arm-guard. This version of Movie Bumblebee also features a flip-down battle mask, very similar to Human Alliance Bumblebee. In other words, pure premium awesome-sauce.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:His head has a tendency to pop off during transformation. The space at the front of the collar would give him &#039;&#039;just&#039;&#039; enough clearance to pass his head through... if it were not for the small plastic flap (the one with the [[Autobot]] symbol) on his chest, which tends to push and squeeze the head out enough that the tension causes the head to pop and fly out from his ball-jointed neck.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Stock photos show that the axe was originally made in such a way that the blade was mounted on a rod and could be rotated downwards, but this was changed entirely for unknown reasons (possibly fragility). As a result, the blade is mounted upside-down.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Due to his robot mode height, he stands &#039;&#039;nearly&#039;&#039; taller than Battle Blade Optimus Prime.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The Japanese &#039;&#039;Autobot Alliance&#039;&#039; release features marginally darker yellow plastic and paint.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
:A [[redeco]] of the first &#039;&#039;Revenge of the Fallen&#039;&#039; Deluxe class Bumblebee, this version is fluorescent yellow and blue, possibly as an [[homage]] to &#039;&#039;[[Generation 1 (franchise)|Generation 1]]&#039;&#039; [[Bumblebee (G1)/Marvel Comics continuity|Bumblebee]]&#039;s colors in the old [[The Transformers (Marvel comic)|comics]] by [[Marvel Comics|Marvel]] (due to the limited color palette [[Nelson Yomtov]] was working with). The car doors and hood feature a new deco of overlaid black and silver streaks, as well as a solid black stripe down the middle with a large silver Autobot symbol at the front. It is packaged with a redeco of [[Thrust (Movie)|Thrust]]. &lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
:A redeco of &#039;&#039;Revenge of the Fallen&#039;&#039; Cannon Bumblebee in a brighter yellow with dark pine green replacing the former toy&#039;s metallic teal. The windows are cast in transparent green plastic with green trim and the outsides of his arms are also painted green. Additionally, there is a green stripe running across and between the fenders on each side with green accents on the face and helmet as well. The face has been painted silver and lacks the pupils of the previous deco. His thumbs are now black and the tailpipes have been painted gunmetal. The tiny Autobot symbol by the driver&#039;s side door has been replaced with a larger white one on the right rear window. He came packaged with a Legends [[Grindor (ROTF)|Grindor]] redeco. &lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
:Essentially a redeco of &amp;quot;Bombing Run Battle&amp;quot; Bumblebee (using the same shade of yellow plastic) but using the head of the [[#VsSoundwave|Battlefield Bumblebee]]. All of the green parts have been replaced with a chocolate brown (including the tires), with brown stripes over his eyes which run across the top of his battle helmet. The thumbs and insides of his upper arms are also painted brown. The windows are clear and untinted. He has a brown &amp;quot;wash&amp;quot; over his lower arms and on his doors to simulate caked on dirt or mud. There are also silver &amp;quot;scratches&amp;quot; on both doors as well as the driver&#039;s side of the hood. He has a tiny black-on-white Autobot symbol on his lower abdomen. Unlike previous versions of this mold, the rear lights, tailpipes, and lower front headlights are unpainted. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:He was packaged with redecoes of [[Rampage (ROTF)#Deluxe Class toys 2|Rampage]] and [[Ravage (ROTF)#RampageAmongTheRuins|Ravage]] and available exclusively at Toys &amp;quot;R&amp;quot; Us stores.&lt;br /&gt;

*&#039;&#039;&#039;Battle Ops Bumblebee&#039;&#039;&#039; (2010)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Battle Ops Bumblebee is a large (roughly leader size) new mold with &amp;quot;guardian&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;warrior&amp;quot; robot modes, which changes weapons and sound effects. He has a flip down battle mask, a right arm that converts to a plasma cannon, and two non-firing light-up shoulder/hood missile launchers. His non-cannon hand has some articulation, but is tightly jointed. Although not mentioned in the instructions, the missile launchers can be collapsed on the back in robot mode. Also, you have to remove the plastic ring attached on the right cannon hand before you use the toy.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:As revealed at the Hasbro designers panel at [[BotCon 2010]], an easter egg is hidden in Battle Ops Bumblebee&#039;s electronics: when in vehicle mode, pressing down on the front left end of the vehicle (or pushing the front left wheel up) thrice will play the first verse of the [[The Transformers (cartoon)|original &#039;&#039;Transformers&#039;&#039;]] [[theme song]], and three subsequent presses will play the second verse. Unfortunately, it only repeats the first two verses.&lt;br /&gt;

:A [[Costco]]-[[exclusive]] [[redeco]] of the Bumblebee figure above, this release is advertised as having a &amp;quot;Limited Edition metallic finish!&amp;quot;, being cast in gray plastic and painted over in metallic gold, and with his hand being cast in colorless clear plastic, making him very similar to his &#039;&#039;Masterpiece&#039;&#039; figure. Additionally, the tip of his cannon is [[Vacuum metallizing|chromed]]. He comes with two &amp;quot;Great Value&amp;quot; toys: an unchanged Legends-Class [[Mudflap (ROTF)#BattleOpsCostco|Mudflap]] figure and a &amp;quot;Premium&amp;quot; vacuum-metallized gold redeco of Bumblebee&#039;s own &#039;&#039;Revenge of the Fallen&#039;&#039; Legends-Class figure.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Canada received both English and French versions of this release - bizarrely, the French release is available in places outside Quebec such as Vancouver and even Alberta.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
:&#039;&#039;[[The Transformers: Masterpiece|Masterpiece: Movie Series]]&#039;&#039; Bumblebee is a redeco of Battle Ops Bumblebee. Unlike the Hasbro version, he features a very extensive paint job, including chromed rims, and features no yellow plastic despite his appearance. Instead, all of his yellow parts are painted over gray plastic to make it as [[Show-accuracy|show-accurate]] as possible. Among other notable plastic color changes, the [[TakaraTomy]] version features a clear colorless right hand (instead of translucent blue).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
:After 7 years, this &#039;&#039;[[The Transformers: Masterpiece|Masterpiece Movie Series]]&#039;&#039; Bumblebee is a brand-new &#039;&#039;Masterpiece&#039;&#039; mold, based upon his body from the first live-action film. Does it convert? Does it ever! &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:As usual, he transforms from a roughly Voyager-sized robot which scales with the Generation 1 &#039;&#039;Masterpiece&#039;&#039; Autobot Cars, into a Concept Camaro seen in the first live-action movie, and his right hand can be replaced with a Stinger Blaster. He also features die-cast parts on his bottom legs &amp;amp; his feet. His Stinger Blaster can store underneath it&#039;s vehicle mode.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Some units feature misassembled waist tabs. Although stock photos shows his tire rims being painted silver, the actual product has tire rims painted in Chevy’s Midnight Silver, which was used as an optional paint for the 2010&#039;s Camaros. And unlike most Bumblebee figures, he was casted in rally yellow plastic rather than the usual orange-yellow. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The Japanese release omits the paint applications on the eyes to allow for light piping, and it features a less dark shading on the blaster weapon. As with most TakaraTomy toys, It also uses black screws over unpainted screws. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:In the United States, Canada, Australia, and Hasbro&#039;s Asian markets, &#039;&#039;Masterpiece Movie Series&#039;&#039; Bumblebee was exclusively available from [[Toys&amp;quot;R&amp;quot;Us]], as was TakaraTomy&#039;s Japanese release. He was also initially released in the Transformers Atrium Fair in Takashimaya B2 Atrium located at Singapore, limited to 300 pieces. In Spain, meanwhile, he saw a wider release, being at least available via the Spanish subsidiaries of [[Amazon (website)|Amazon]] and Carrefour, as well as the department store chain El Corte Inglés. It&#039;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 &amp;quot;Toys-Shop&amp;quot;, but again might have been available online only.&lt;br /&gt;

:Part of the first wave of &#039;&#039;[[Transformers: Dark of the Moon (toyline)|Dark of the Moon]]&#039;&#039; [[Cyberverse]] Legion Class toys, Bumblebee is an all-new mold that takes basic design cues from the &#039;&#039;Revenge of the Fallen&#039;&#039; Legends Class Bumblebee, but generally improves upon them by being more accurate in robot mode. His right hand is sculpted as his Plasma Cannon, while his left hand has the ability to hold onto Cyberverse [[C joint|3mm post]] weapons and interact with Cyberverse playsets.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The final toy differs from promotional photos by being cast in a different color of plastic similar to previous releases of the &#039;&#039;Revenge of the Fallen&#039;&#039; [[Legends Class]] sculpt, while the promotional photos depict him in a lighter hue of yellow. Amusingly, this has already happened before and in almost the exact same way. History tends to repeat itself, folks.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:This mold was also used to make other versions of the Bumblebee (see below).&lt;br /&gt;

This Bumblebee also comes with a redecoed version of &#039;&#039;[[Machine Wars: Transformers|Machine Wars]]&#039;&#039; [[Skywarp (MW)|Skywarp]]&#039;s [[Skywarp (G1)/toys#Machine Wars|gun]], which can be held in his newly retooled right hand. (This weapon is also depicted on Starscream&#039;s side of the instructions, confusing matters of ownership a bit.)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The Bumblebees come packed with a [[retool]] of [[Movie (toyline)|&#039;&#039;Transformers&#039;&#039;]] Legends Class [[Starscream (Movie)/toys#BeeStarscream|Starscream]] and a redeco of &#039;&#039;Legends of [[Transformers: Cybertron (toyline)|Cybertron]]&#039;&#039; [[Starscream (Armada)|Starscream]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
:The [[stock photography|stock photo]] used for the [[packaging]] (which depicts a hand-painted prototype) shows him lacking the retooled hand. The other stock photo (see the image to the right), which depicts a pre-production sample, does show the retooled hand, but has the weapon&#039;s handle plugged into a conveniently fitting slot on his &#039;&#039;other&#039;&#039; arm for whatever reason.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
:Available exclusively at [[Walmart]] in a three pack with [[Soundwave (ROTF)#Cyberverse|Soundwave]] and [[Rodimus (DOTM)|Rodimus]], this gold and silver Cyberverse Bumblebee is a redeco of &#039;&#039;Revenge of the Fallen&#039;&#039; Legends class Bumblebee, and lacks the newly tooled hand of the Target-exclusive Cyberverse Bumblebee and 011 Bumblebee (see below).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:This three-pack was also available as an Asda exclusive in the United Kingdom and from Rossmann stores in Germany and Auchan stores in Hungary and Italy. Of note is that the [[multilingual packaging|European packaging]] does &#039;&#039;not&#039;&#039; market Rodimus as a &amp;quot;bonus figure&amp;quot; (presumably so stores can charge full price for three toys), and his window lacks the yellow edges highlighting him as a special feature, despite still being separated from Bumblebee and Soundwave, who share a common window like in the US version. Despite this, Rodimus still doesn&#039;t get a mention on the back of the packaging, which only features a one-sentence &amp;quot;bio&amp;quot; about Bumblebee planning to bring down Soundwave in twelve different languages.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:All versions of the packaging also lack any logos that label the toys as Cyberverse products.&lt;br /&gt;

:Part of the second wave of &#039;&#039;Dark of the Moon&#039;&#039; Cyberverse Legion Class toys, (Bolt) Bumblebee is a retool of the &#039;&#039;Revenge of the Fallen&#039;&#039; Legends class Bumblebee with a new right hand that enables him to hold Cyberverse accessories and interact with Cyberverse playsets.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Whereas the [[stock photography|stock photos]] depicted on the back of his packaging (which feature a hand-painted [[prototype]]) correctly show him with only a Cyberverse-compatible right hand and an unchanged left hand, the other set of stock photos (which feature a pre-production sample) depicts him with &#039;&#039;two&#039;&#039; retooled hands. Whereas the version with the new right hand was redecoed for several store-exclusive multi-packs, no version available in stores has featured the new &#039;&#039;left&#039;&#039; hand thus far.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Although the toy is listed as &amp;quot;Bolt Bumblebee&amp;quot; on the official Hasbro website, the United States version and early releases of the [[multilingual packaging|European version]] simply use the name &amp;quot;Bumblebee&amp;quot; everywhere on the packaging, and the &amp;quot;Bolt&amp;quot; prefix was apparently only added as a [[variant|running change]] for later shipments of the European version.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
:Exclusive to [[Target]], this Cyberverse Bumblebee is a redeco of Bolt Bumblebee. His right new hand enables him to hold his accompanying blaster (which originates from [[Machine Wars: Transformers|Machine Wars]] [[Prowl (G1)/toys|Prowl]]/[[Mirage (G1)|Mirage]]). Bumblebee comes packed with a [[Motormaster (G1)|Generation 1 Motormaster]]-inspired redeco of Cyberverse Commander [[Megatron (Movie)/toys#TargetCyberverseVs|Megatron]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
:Bundled exclusively with the September 2011 edition of &#039;&#039;TV-Kun&#039;&#039; magazine, the redundantly-named &amp;quot;Bumblebee Cyberverse Version&amp;quot; is a translucent yellow and opaque black redeco of Bolt Bumblebee. Possessing minimal paint operations, the toy instead includes a sticker-sheet for the stripes, window tinting, and Autobot symbol.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
:Part of the third wave of &#039;&#039;Dark of the Moon&#039;&#039; Cyberverse Legion Class toys, this toy is a [[black repaint|black]] redeco of his &#039;&#039;Dark of the Moon&#039;&#039; mold. His deco consists of the first two-thirds of his vehicle being cast in black, with painted yellow stripes on the hood and sides, and the rear third of his vehicle being an unpainted metallic yellow, giving the appearance of the stripes extending out from the back. His headlights and most of his windshields are painted a metallic blue, his crotch is painted silver, and he has a gold Autobot insignia on the tip of his hood.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The yellow paint operations on the black plastic parts and the shade of yellow used for the unpainted yellow plastic parts clash so much that even [[Ben Yee]], who is usually &#039;&#039;very&#039;&#039; generous with his toy reviews, rated this redeco as sub-par.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;stealthyee&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[http://www.bwtf.com/toyreviews/dotm/legion/bumblebee-black/ BWTF review of &#039;&#039;Cyberverse&#039;&#039; Legion Class &amp;quot;Black&amp;quot; Bumblebee]&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

:While this toy is listed as Stealth Bumblebee on the Hasbro website and named as such on the [[multilingual packaging|European packaging]], the &amp;quot;Stealth&amp;quot; prefix did not appear on the American packaging for some time.

: Commemorating a hilarious and probably very expensive moment of stupidity on the &#039;&#039;[[Transformers: Dark of the Moon (film)|Dark of the Moon]]&#039;&#039; set wherein a [[Wikipedia: Metropolitan Police Department|Metropolitan Police Department]] SUV was hit by a Bumblebee stunt car during filming, Bumblebee is a [[redeco]] of his Action Set toy (which uses his first &#039;&#039;Dark of the Moon&#039;&#039; Legion-Class figure) and is painted to hilariously have damage in the front of his vehicle mode. His [[Mobile Battle Bunker#CybertronianWarriors|Mobile Battle Bunker]] has been redecoed to be gray and had the jetpack slightly retooled.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: He was packaged in a Toys&amp;quot;R&amp;quot;Us-exclusive multi-pack with redecoed versions of [[Ironhide (Movie)/toys#CybertronianWarriors|Ironhide]], [[Crankcase (DOTM)#CybertronianWarriors|Crankcase]] (in a deco based on the aforementioned police SUV), and [[Barricade (Movie)/toys#CybertronianWarriors|Barricade]].

**&#039;&#039;Accessories:&#039;&#039; MechTech Blaster/[[Plasma cannon|Plasma Cannon]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Part of the first wave of &#039;&#039;[[Transformers: Dark of the Moon (toyline)|Dark of the Moon]]&#039;&#039; Deluxe Class figures, Bumblebee is an entirely new mold that resembles in many ways the 2010 toyline Battle Blade Bumblebee, and is much more accurate than previous Deluxe Bumblebees. In addition to the cosmetic changes made to the vehicle mode and robot mode to resemble the third movie&#039;s altered visual design, this Bumblebee also comes with a [[MechTech]] weapon. When a lever is pulled back on the &amp;quot;Blaster&amp;quot; weapon, it opens up into a larger &amp;quot;Plasma Cannon&amp;quot;, but it springs back into its original position once the lever is left alone. The MechTech weapon can be held in his hands, attach via [[5mm post|5mm pegholes]]/MechTech ports on his forearms, or plug in a &amp;quot;concealed&amp;quot; 5mm peghole on the vehicle mode&#039;s roof. Two extraneous 5mm peg holes are also located on his vehicle mode hood flap, and can be flipped up and used in robot mode to shoulder-mount weapons beside his head. Additionally, [[C joint]] bars are sculpted into Bumblebee&#039;s forearms.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Bumblebee can form a semi-Stealth Force configuration by lifting up the rear half of his roof, exposing concealed cannons sculpted in translucent blue plastic. Also of note in vehicle mode is the sculpted Camaro SS badging near the doors, which doesn&#039;t appear on any other &#039;&#039;Dark of the Moon&#039;&#039; Bumblebee toy or the prop vehicles used for filming.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Just like his CG robot model, his [[package art]] depicts his racing stripes being pinstripe-bordered despite his toy no longer having it. Whoops. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Bumblebee 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. This mold was also used to make &#039;&#039;Movie The Best&#039;&#039; [[Laserbeak (DOTM)#Movie The Best|Laserbeak]].&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
:Nitro Bumblebee is an all-new mold, featuring booster engines, armour plating and other Stealth Force-like design elements sculpted onto the vehicle mode. He transforms rather differently to most of the other Deluxe class Bumblebee molds, with much of the entire front of the car being articulated chest pieces rather than the usual front fenders separating from the rest of the chest. Also of note are his legs, which are considerably different in appearance and transformation to the standard set by the 2007 &#039;&#039;Transformers&#039;&#039; Deluxe class (Camaro Concept) Bumblebee, with the rear wheels ending up inside of his ankle. Like the Leader Class toy, he features sculpted (but unpainted) &amp;quot;900 STRA&amp;quot; [[license plate]]s in both modes, making it the first time the license plate used for the car props from all three movies is used for a Deluxe Class toy.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:He comes with a MechTech Boost Engine, which converts into a Plasma Cannon when the lever is pulled, and although it is similar in function and appearance to [[Skids (ROTF)#Deluxe Class toys 3|Skids]]&#039;s MechTech blaster, it is in actuality an entirely new mold. He features five MechTech ports in vehicle mode: one on the hood, two of the roof and two behind his rear wheels. In robot mode, both of his arms have one MechTech port each, and the ports from vehicle mode can still be used.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
:This [[Walmart]]-[[exclusive]] Bumblebee (also sold at Sainsbury&#039;s stores in the United Kingdom) is a redeco of the [[Movie (toyline)|2007 &#039;&#039;Transformers&#039;&#039;]] Deluxe Class Concept Camaro Bumblebee, with the standard production model Chevrolet Camaro front end as compared to the &#039;&#039;Revenge of the Fallen&#039;&#039; ZL1 version and the first reuse of the 2007 mold, both hands and the hand-held [[plasma cannon]]/energy blade weapon. However, he &#039;&#039;does&#039;&#039; have the retooled shoulder panels that are held in place with screws (first introduced with &#039;&#039;Revenge of the Fallen&#039;&#039; Alliance Bumblebee). &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Bumblebee features many different &#039;&#039;Transformers&#039;&#039; [[insignia]]s from across different continuities, namely; [[:File:Ancient Autobot Symbol.png|Generation 1 Prehistory Autobot]], [[:File:Minicon symbol.png|Armada Mini-Con]], [[:File:Sumdac Systems.PNG|Animated Sumdac Systems]], [[:File:Playschool Go-Bots G.png|Playschool Go-Bot]], [[S.T.A.R.S.]], &amp;quot;FLY [[Omega Supreme (disambiguation)|Ω SUPREME]]&amp;quot;, [[G.B.

&lt;br /&gt;
:The [[stock photography|stock photos]] on the back of his packaging are quite strange, depicting a significantly different deco, with the primary color for his vehicle mode gradually fading from yellow to red towards the bottom, and parts of his abdomen sporting the same red color. In addition, his handheld weapon&#039;s blade sports a clear blue color. The final toy, by contrast, features no red at all, and his blade is cast in clear black plastic. Furthermore, the stock photos depict his eyes as bright blue, whereas the final toy&#039;s eyes are painted black. On top of that, the stock photos contradict &#039;&#039;each other&#039;&#039;, with the photo of his robot mode depicting clear blue windows, whereas the photo of his vehicle mode depicts opaque &#039;&#039;black&#039;&#039; windows.&lt;br /&gt;

:Exclusive to [[Kmart]] stores in the USA (and to [[Canadian Tire]] stores in Canada), the Autobot Daredevil Squad Bumblebee is another redeco of Cannon Bumblebee as part of, for some reason, the [[Human Alliance]] play pattern. The packaging puts emphasis on Backfire&#039;s &amp;quot;handheld cannon&amp;quot; mode, which this particular Bumblebee isn&#039;t really designed to hold.&lt;br /&gt;

*&#039;&#039;&#039;Bumblebee&#039;&#039;&#039; (MechTech Leader, 2011)&lt;br /&gt;
**&#039;&#039;Japanese Name&#039;&#039;: &#039;&#039;&#039;Power Armed Bumblebee&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
**&#039;&#039;Japanese Release Date&#039;&#039;: &#039;&#039;&#039;[[2017]]-[[May 14|05-14]]&lt;br /&gt;
**&#039;&#039;Japanese ID number:&#039;&#039; &#039;&#039;&#039;DA-01&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
**&#039;&#039;Accessories:&#039;&#039; MechTech backpack&lt;br /&gt;
: An all new mold, this version of Bumblebee is smaller than his previous Leader-sized incarnations and, &#039;&#039;technically&#039;&#039;, is his first Leader-class toy. Along with the update to his Dark of the Moon form, this is also the first toy to feature a (sculpted) &amp;quot;900 STRA&amp;quot; [[license plate]] (the one used for the prop cars for all three movies). Being different in proportions to his other toys, this Bumblebee seems to have inspired his later &amp;quot;[[#NitroBee|Nitro Bumblebee]]&amp;quot; toy, having a much bulkier torso and smaller arms, with the entire hood pieces being deformed into his chest.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: The main gimmick is that he comes with a massive MechTech backpack, which hooks onto his back window/back, and is the sole electronic component of the toy. It resembles a [[jet pack|jet-pack]], and features missile pods and a cannon, all of which emit lights and sounds when pressed, and can be positioned for either robot or vehicle mode. Pressing the missile pod housings will emit orange lights and play the sound of a barrage of missiles being launched, while pressing the cannon will prop up a targeting sight, emit green lights, and play the sound of the cannon deploying/charging and firing a powerful-sounding blast. The weapons can be deployed/retracted when the brown panel on the top-left of the backpack is slid, making the [[Transformation#The noise|transformation noise]] in the process (with an additional mechanical impact sound after deploying). There are a total of five MechTech ports and four [[C joint]] bars on the backpack, with a port and bar on each missile pod, a port on the side of the cannon barrel, a port on the sliding panel, a port on the top-center of the backpack, and a bar on top of each battery compartment.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: Bumblebee can also transform into his [[Stealth Force]] attack vehicle mode, wherein his hood portions split forward and open, his doors open and hinge up, his robot arms swing out from the sides to aim, his plasma cannon extends, and his backpack is attached and deployed, with dedicated pegs to help secure his doors, arms, and shoulders. Finally, like a few other Bumblebee toys, he also features a flip-down battle mask.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: Unfortunately, while Bumblebee has rotational leg [[articulation]], they&#039;re &#039;&#039;below&#039;&#039; the knees, limiting their usefulness. Even more unfortunately, while he&#039;s perfectly stable on his own, plugging in his backpack in robot mode will make him &#039;&#039;very&#039;&#039; back-heavy, resulting in significant balance issues and limitation of posability due to his [[Ratchet (mechanism)|ratchet joint]]s not being strong enough to handle the additional weight on one side. Posing him to lean forwards or posing his legs further to his back may remedy this.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: His secondary stock photos is slightly mistransformed: his shoulder collars are not folded out. Ironically; this mistranformation &#039;&#039;also allows&#039;&#039; the head to move slightly freely.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
:Part of the 2011 [[Burger King]] Dark of the Moon promotion, Bumblebee is a simple figure with bobble-head-like proportions.

*&#039;&#039;&#039;Bumblebee&#039;&#039;&#039; (2011)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:As with other Dark of the Moon Activators toys, this Bumblebee figure (released under the [[Robo Power]] subline) is a very simple one-step transformation toy. Transformation consists of positioning him on the large blue section to the rear of his vehicle mode and pressing down, causing his components to shift around and reveal his robot parts; from there, one just has to rotate out his arms. Transformation back to vehicle mode is done by reversing the steps. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Bumblebee 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&#039;t be transformed in package.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:[http://www.allspark.com/forums/topic/110058-question-robo-power-activators/ At least one report] has surfaced of a brand-new figure missing one of the locking tabs that work the spring-loaded transformation mechanism, leaving the figure unable to transform properly. Although most likely a one-off incident as no other cases are known to have happened, care should still be taken.&lt;br /&gt;

: The two-pack also includes a &#039;Classic&#039; Bumblebee [[redeco]]ed from the &#039;&#039;[[Transformers: Generations|Generations]]&#039;&#039; [[Bumblebee (G1)/toys#Generations|Legends Class Bumblebee]], cast in a slightly lighter yellow with blue headlights and taillights and armed with a black and yellow redeco of &#039;&#039;[[Transformers: Dark of the Moon (toyline)|Dark of the Moon]]&#039;&#039; [[Jolt (ROTF)#Deluxe Class toys 3|Deluxe Jolt]]&#039;s [[MechTech]] weapon.

&lt;br /&gt;
: The two-pack was one of the three Evolution 2-packs available as a Toys&amp;quot;R&amp;quot;Us exclusive in Japan, with no changes on the figures with an exception of the packaging, which the front box features Japanese translated versions of the English text, and a sticker on the back confirming that this was a Japanese release. Take note that this was also the first Japanese release of the 2014 Camaro Bumblebee mold, 7 days &#039;&#039;before&#039;&#039; it&#039;s &#039;&#039;Movie Advanced&#039;&#039; Series release (seen below). &lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
:This individual release of the Bumblebee is an unchanged version of the figure above included from the Evolution two-pack. He still includes the two throwing stars and the flip out cannon and flip down battle mask (which is horribly inaccurate to the actual battle mask in the film). Some variants are more of a yellow color than the original orange-ish yellow color. The Japanese release of the toy, released as part of &#039;&#039;[[Movie Advanced Series]]&#039;&#039; lineup (7 days after the original Hasbro Bumblebee mold from the Evolution 2-pack Bumblebee released in Japan), features paint operations on his robot mode&#039;s arms, thighs, &amp;amp; his eyes...although this neuters the light-piping gimmick.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Most promotional images featuring this figure (like the one above), except the ones from Takara, have Bumblebee mistransformed, with his shoulders not folded down correctly and his front bumper/grille not folded down into his chest.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The mold was later redecoed as Movie Advanced Series [[Stinger (AOE)#Movie Advanced Series|Stinger]].&lt;br /&gt;

: A toy exclusive to Takara&#039;s &#039;Movie Advanced&#039; line, this Bumblebee is a redeco of [[Transformers (2010 toyline)|&#039;&#039;Transformers (2010)&#039;&#039;]] Battle Blade Bumblebee. Unlike the Masterpiece Movie Bumblebee, And due to the fact that this toy combines with some unpainted yellow robot parts and has metallic yellow paint on most of his car shells/body parts...resulting in weird, two-tone yellow colors in robot mode. Other than this, the paint masks are &#039;&#039;completely identical&#039;&#039; to the original mold, with an exception of the flip-out cannon &amp;amp; his blade, which is chromed. Because of the gradual downsizing of deluxe figures after 2011, this Bumblebee was released as a Voyager Class figure despite its original release being a Deluxe Class figure.&lt;br /&gt;

:Leader Class Bumblebee is a redeco of the &#039;&#039;Dark of the Moon&#039;&#039; Leader Class Mechtech Bumblebee figure, omitting the MechTech backpack for cost reasons, and features a deco pattern similar to his appearance in &#039;&#039;Age of Extinction&#039;&#039;. And of course, as a redeco of the Leader Class toy, Bumblebee can attach to said backpack. He shipped in solid cases, not part of the regular &#039;&#039;Age of Extinction&#039;&#039; Leader assortment. The stock photo on his packaging is a color-swapped version of the original prototype photo, lacking the backpack.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
:[[Tiny Turbo Changers]] Bumblebee is a small, stumpy, soft-plastic [[blindpacking|blind-bagged]] mini-figure that changes from robot to a Concept Camaro 2016 with just a few simple steps. He features hands that are compatible with &#039;&#039;[[Cyberverse]]&#039;&#039; weapons and other 3mm post accessories. Like all Tiny Turbo Changers, his vehicle-mode tires do not spin, sorry. His legs are attached backwards in package (as seen at right). However, his legs can be easily dismantled from the hood/feet &amp;amp; the waist, flipping the legs backwards, and reassemble it back.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Despite bearing the Concept Camaro 2016-ish vehicle mode, his robot mode sculpt and paint applications bears resemblance to his appearance in &#039;&#039;Age of Extinction&#039;&#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:He and the [[Optimus Prime (Movie)/toys#TinyTurboChanger|Optimus Prime]] were available in both Series of the line, with no noteworthy changes between releases. Not even their bag codes changed. Their instruction books were updated to say &amp;quot;Series 2&amp;quot;. It was unknown if this release had correctly assembled legs.&lt;br /&gt;

:Bumblebee is re-released in the second wave of the Premier Edition Deluxe line, and features a black deco on the car roof &amp;amp; the rear section of the vehicle shell. The easiest way is to look for the variant is by looking the at the bottom rear piece while the figure is in-package, as the black paint can be seen through the clear plastic. This variant also applies to the TakaraTomy release of the figure. Due to this, the initial variant became more rare &amp;amp; uncommon.&lt;br /&gt;

:Like the rest of the first wave Deluxes, Bumblebee is a shelfwarmer in Asia. &lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
:For the 1977 Bumblebee figure, he unfortunately uses the opaque windows used for the Hasbro release. It was unknown if the mold will use the fixed Automorph gimmick. His face&#039;s paint applications is minimized, and the blue details on his thighs is omitted, and he does not use the painted stripes for the Automorph button used from the Evolution of a Hero 2-pack. It should be noted that the &amp;quot;battle damage&amp;quot; details included in the first Deluxe Class toy is removed for this release.&lt;br /&gt;

:As for the High Octane mold, While he features the same paint applications from the original mold, he features the same lighter shade of yellow plastic used for this set&#039;s figures.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:As for the latest Deluxe Bumblebee mold, he features slightly darkened transparent windows as opposed to the original&#039;s entirely transparent ones. The Hasbro stock photo for his robot mode still depicts him holding his arm cannon as a gun.&lt;br /&gt;

:&#039;&#039;[[Studio Series]]&#039;&#039; Bumblebee is a heavy retool of [[#ThirdTLKDeluxe|&#039;&#039;The Last Knight Premier Edition&#039;&#039; Bumblebee]], with a new vehicle shell and some body parts (mostly the lower section), and due to this, Bumblebee ends up being slightly smaller than the original mold (and more to scale with the &#039;&#039;Studio Series&#039;&#039; toys). In 22 steps, he transforms into a yellow 1976 Chevrolet Camaro based on his appearance in the first live-action &#039;&#039;Transformers&#039;&#039; movie. He includes a cardboard backdrop display depicting the encounter with [[Barricade (Movie)|Barricade]]. He also includes the same blaster from &#039;&#039;Premier Edition&#039;&#039; figure.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Depending on the individual sample&#039;s quality control, Bumblebee has some problems with parts refusing to lock together and continually detaching from their proper position, notably the rear section of the vehicle mode.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Bumblebee, along with the rest of Wave 1 Deluxes, was made available at [[Hasbro Toy Shop]] following New York [[Toy Fair 2018]], two months ahead of the scheduled brick and mortar release date.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
:Starting [[June 1]], 2009, [[General Motors|Chevrolet]] began taking orders for the Bumblebee Edition package for the 2009/2010 Chevy Camaro.

&lt;br /&gt;
:In conjunction with &#039;&#039;[[Transformers: Dark of the Moon (film)|Dark of the Moon]]&#039;&#039;, Chevrolet began taking orders for the 2012 Transformers Special Edition package for the Chevy Camaro in July 2011, with vehicles arriving at dealers in the U.S., and Canada in September of the same year. Based upon the Bumblebee Camaro prop as it appears in &#039;&#039;Dark of the Moon&#039;&#039;, the package consists of Rally Yellow exterior color, with black rally stripes that stretched over the hood, roof, and decklid, a &#039;&#039;Dark of the Moon&#039;&#039;-inspired high-wing rear spoiler, 20-inch, black-painted wheels with performance tires, and Autobot Shield logos on the center caps and front quarter panels. &lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
:Inside, the package has a black leather interior accented with yellow stitching on the instrument panel, center console, armrests, and seats. Autobot Shield logos were embroidered on the front headrests and the center console lid.&lt;br /&gt;

==Notes==&lt;br /&gt;
*A weapon considered for Bumblebee was a pair of arm-mounted electrical [[Stinger (weapon)|stingers]]. The Bumblebee Camaro &#039;09 toy&#039;s blade weapon might have been influenced by this early concept.&lt;br /&gt;
*[[Aaron Archer]] mentioned that when Hasbro received pictures of numerous toys of Bumblebee [[shelfwarmer|shelf-warming]], they finally realized that they had indeed gone overboard with his toys. Aaron suggested a need for a certain amount of yellow-colored toys in each wave, hence the large amount of Bumblebee&#039;s released per wave.&lt;br /&gt;

:&#039;&#039;Dion is an [[Autobot]] from the [[The Transformers (cartoon)|cartoon portion]] of the [[Generation 1 continuity family]].&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Diong1.jpg|upright=1.4|thumb|Anyone ever tell you that you look just like Wheelie?&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;No? Oh. How about Hot Shot?]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Dion&#039;&#039;&#039; is an earnest dock worker and best friend to [[Optimus Prime (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Orion Pax]]. His is a simple life of manual labor, and he does not give a second thought to the stories that a war may be brewing around him. What &#039;&#039;does&#039;&#039; interest him are those [[Decepticon|new-fangled flying robots]]. Maybe someday he&#039;ll get to meet them...?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Fiction==&lt;br /&gt;
===&#039;&#039;The Transformers&#039;&#039; cartoon===&lt;br /&gt;
{{voiceactor|[[Corey Burton]] (English), [[Ken Shiroyama]] (Japanese)}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Dionvehicle.jpg|left|upright=1.4|thumb|Cybertron&#039;s &amp;quot;Golden Age&amp;quot; was a pretty literal title, if you look.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Nine million years ago, near the end of [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]]&#039;s [[Golden Age]], it was Dion&#039;s job to haul energy and supplies in and out of [[storage yard 67|the dock]] in which he worked. There were murmurs of attacks from new, flying robots, but he didn&#039;t believe those rumours.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Dion was honored to meet the leader of these enigmatic warriors, [[Megatron (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Megatron]], until Megatron revealed his plan to rob their dock of its [[energon]] stockpiles and ordered the [[Dropkick (G1)|Decepticons]] to attack. Witnessing Megatron strike down Orion, [[Elita One (G1)|Ariel]], and another friend, Dion ran (seemingly straight towards the attacking Decepticon warriors for reasons unclear), but was quickly mowed down by a shot in his chest.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The time-traveling [[Aerialbot (G1)|Aerialbots]] carried Orion Pax to [[Alpha Trion (G1)|Alpha Trion]] for repairs, and Dion&#039;s friend was rebuilt into Optimus Prime. Drones were sent back to retrieve Ariel, but Dion was never rebuilt&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;tfviews.com&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[http://www.tfviews.com/news/main/hasbro-q-and-a/1024 TFviews June 2010 Hasbro Transformers Q&amp;amp;A]&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; and presumably died. {{storylink|War Dawn (episode)|War Dawn}}&lt;br /&gt;

[[File:BattleLines1-DionOrionAriel.jpg|thumb|upright=1.4|Don&#039;t you hate it when your life is narrated by [[Side Burn (RID)|Side Burn]]?]]&lt;br /&gt;
In a similar but divergent timeline, Dion definitely survived Megatron&#039;s raid on [[storage yard 67]], but just barely. Once reactivated and rebuilt top to bottom (with the help of [[Cop-Tur (G1)|Cop-Tur]]), he was approached by [[Sentinel Major]] and [[Magnum]]. {{storylink|Battle Lines, Part 1}} Now fully knowledgeable of the extent of Megatron&#039;s evil, Dion signed away his life to the [[Cybertron Elite Guard|Elite Guard]], believing he&#039;d lost everything he&#039;d known to war. Dion was assigned to [[Metalhawk (Masterforce)|Metalhawk]]&#039;s team, he and determined to fight Decepticons by any means necessary.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Dion&#039;s new twin flame launchers utilize a &amp;quot;[[Reverse-Higgs mechanism]]&amp;quot; to &amp;quot;decouple energy from matter&amp;quot;, which makes things very destructible. Though rebuilt, he can still modify his arms to accommodate the need to carry heavy objects, a skill he possessed as a dock worker. Unfortunately, his new shoulders kind of lock up, which restricts his arms&#039; movement. {{storylink|Wings of Honor|Dion&#039;s Wings Universe profile}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:ComingStorm2-Dion.jpg|left|thumb|upright=1.66|Nobody wants [[BotCon 2005]]&#039;s Virulent Clones, not even Dion!]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
On Dion&#039;s first mission, he, his commander Metalhawk, and his teammates [[Over-Run (G1)|Over-Run]] and [[Ironfist (G1)|Ironfist]] allied with [[Thunder Clash|Thunderclash]]&#039;s Elite Guard team to fight a plague of [[Virulent Clone]]s. Getting covered with [[Insecticon (G1)|Insecticon]] goop was not exactly what Dion had in mind for his first foray into action, but nevertheless the clones were defeated.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
They all relaxed for a bit, until a call from [[Magnum]] bleeped over Thunder Clash&#039;s comm, informing them that Metalhawk&#039;s squad had to ferry Thunder Clash&#039;s squad to [[Space Port Bravo]] straightaway. Dion and [[Kup (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Kup]] helped load their gear onto the &#039;&#039;[[Hawk&#039;s Claw]]&#039;&#039;, then they disembarked.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Once at the spaceport, the two squads bid their goodbyes. Kup told Dion that he&#039;d make sure to share any stories he came across with the &amp;quot;lad&amp;quot;. When Dion reacted to the nickname by pointing out Kup wasn&#039;t &#039;&#039;that&#039;&#039; much older, Kup said it was just the first time he got to meet a younger Elite Guard member.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After Thunder Clash&#039;s squad left, Dion&#039;s squad speculated where they&#039;d end up next. The others expressed a wish for something quiet, and Dion teased them that &#039;&#039;he&#039;&#039; actually looked forward to getting to beat up Decepticons. When Over-Run chastised Dion&#039;s eagerness by asking if the younger bot had ever seen a Decepticon up close, Dion stalked off angrily, much to Over-Run and Ironfist&#039;s confusion.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The squad eventually reboarded their ship and headed to Elite Guard HQ. There they were highly praised for their performance by Magnum, and assigned to a new mission—assisting a [[Combaticon (G1)|new special ops team]] in attacks against the various [[Decepticon leader]]s. {{storylink|The Coming Storm: Part 2}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Dion was unimpressed with [[Sentinel Major]]&#039;s play-on-words: Combaticons &amp;quot;to &#039;&#039;Combat&#039;&#039; the Decepti&#039;&#039;cons&#039;&#039;&amp;quot;, but let the matter drop as the two units reported to Comm Officer [[Big Bang]] for their next mission. The two teams were being assigned to a civilian historical dig in [[Median]] to assist in demolition and excavation, as part of Magnum&#039;s ongoing efforts to curry favor with the civilian council (and keep them from interfering in more serious Guard business). &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The diplomatic cakewalk soon turned out to be anything but. The historians expected to be under siege soon by a gang of Decepticon wannabes, who wanted the prize of their research: an urn containing the [[Heart of the Dragon]]. According to uncovered data, the Heart was apparently a spark of unprecedented innate power, able to reformat any normal Cybertronian form it resided in into a living engine of destruction. Dion and the Elite Guard had been requested in order to bolster the meager defensive fortifications that Security Chief [[Strika (BM)|Strika]] had assembled for the historians. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As they prepped the outer wall for attack, Dion engaged in a little star-gazing, dreamily recollecting stories of the [[Covenant (group)|Covenant]] he had heard as a protoform, like when [[Leonicus]] and [[Sandstorm (BW)|Scorpius]] battled the dreaded [[ice demon]]. Dion drew a few funny looks from his comrades, though, when he started mumbling aloud about how cool Scorpius&#039;s fire-breath was. Once the Guard finished their preparations, they separated into two groups to settle in for the Decepticon attack. Dion was teamed with Metalhawk, [[Swindle (G1)|Swindle]], [[Blast Off (G1)|Blast Off]], Over-Run, and the eager historian [[Lancer]] as the second front. After [[Onslaught (G1)|Onslaught]]&#039;s team wasted [[Roadgrabber]], the Decepticons&#039; advance striker, Dion&#039;s unit got the drop on [[Rage (G1)|Rage]] and the [[Stormtrooper (G1)|Stormtrooper]]s who followed through after Roadgrabber. Rage surprised Metalhawk with his stasis chemical cannon, though, and the Stormtroopers swooped past Dion and the Guard once their leader was rendered inoperative.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The defense of Median turned into a fiasco after that, with casualties on both sides as the archaeometrist [[Glyph (Universe)|Glyph]] was killed by one of Rage&#039;s raiders, [[Aquablast]], who was killed in turn by Lancer. Rage got away with the Heart, though, and the Elite Guard soon tracked him back to his mobile fortress, the [[Metrotitan (Zone)|Metrotitan]]. The Guard were assaulted by Rage&#039;s stable of [[Minotoron]]s, cybernetic mechanimals of great size and poor disposition. Dion came up with the idea of using the Tressian Kajiga-whatsits Swindle have scavenged earlier to overwhelm [[Buffalo Dump]] and the bulls with amplified sound. His plan was successful and the Minotorons were sent retreating back to the Metrotitan. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Thinking quickly, Dion, Swindle and Blast-Off lept into the rear pails of the fleeing mechanimals, gaining quick and easy access inside the Metrotitan. Using his duro lifters and booster units, Dion broke out of the pens and helped his fellow Autobots make their way inside. By this point, however, Rage had already installed the Heart of the Dragon&#039;s laser-core in a new body, birthing the powerful (if micro-sized) [[Brimstone (G1 Decepticon)|Brimstone]]. The Elite Guard played cat-and-mouse with the dragon inside Metrotitan until a combination of Ironfist&#039;s explosives cache and the dragon&#039;s own atom-smashing flame breath destroyed Brimstone from the inside out. {{storylink|Flames of Yesterday}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Dion&#039;s strike team continued to work with the Combaticons over the following weeks, and the two groups began to gel well together. After several successful missions, they separated after eliminating the Decepticon faction leader, [[Shadowcaster]]. {{storylink|The Coming Storm: Part 3}} Immediately the Combaticons disappeared, and Dion&#039;s team was ordered to try to hunt them down wherever they may be. Their search took them into some very unglamorous places, which Dion felt was a waste of time. He complained to Metalhawk that their search in the wastelands was a waste of time, which his commander agreed with, but reminded him was nevertheless an order. It was then that the team was approached by a demented Empty which spoke cryptically of a &amp;quot;coming storm&amp;quot; where &amp;quot;rain will fall down&amp;quot; and the &amp;quot;thunder will deafen you&amp;quot; and where the &amp;quot;lightning will burn.&amp;quot; After a bit of this, Dion&#039;s team grew weary of the Empty and left him. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:ComingStorm6-thelightning.jpg|thumb|upright=1.66|But who&#039;ll bring the potato salad?]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
But the Empty spoke true. Sentinel Major sent their team a distress call, as their Elite Guard headquarters was under attack. Metalhawk ordered his team back to base, where they met up with [[Ricochet (Timelines)|Ricochet]] on the outer skirts of the battle. He showed them a video feed of the battle&#039;s epicenter, where, bogglingly, the Combaticons had switched their allegiance to the Decepticons and had sieged the Elite Guard. Dion remarked that the group looked a little different than before, and, sure enough, the reason for this was revealed when the five Combaticons combined for the first time into the super robot [[Bruticus (G1)|Bruticus]], crushing Sentinel Major to death in his mighty fist. {{storylink|The Coming Storm: Part 5}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Metalhawk led Dion and the others deep into the battle to assist the dwindling members of the Elite Guard. Dodging the flung body of [[Crosscut (Autobot)|Crosscut]], Dion finally made it to Bruticus, who was massacring his opponents. His teammates Over-Run and Ironfist met their end at his hands, which prompted Metalhawk to consider retreating and regrouping. Dion disagreed. He was a member of the Elite Guard! They fight and never retreat! He vaulted himself onto Bruticus in [[alternate mode|vehicle mode]], transformed, and then repurposed the prophesy of the deranged Empty as he fired his arm-mounted weapons into the super robot&#039;s face: &amp;quot;While your boots &#039;&#039;may&#039;&#039; thunder, brute... I have the &#039;&#039;lightning&#039;&#039;!&amp;quot; Bruticus was blinded, forcing the combiner to separate, but not before he swatted Dion away, under a collapsing building. While the Combaticons retreated, Dion removed himself from the detritus, the lone survivor. {{storylink|The Coming Storm: Part 6}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Following the massacre, Dion was repaired by [[Ratchet (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Ratchet]] and [[Paradron Medic]]. (Dion was unaware that his personal story was being used elsewhere [[Side Burn (RID)|by an imposter]] to pick up chicks.) When Dion regained functionality, he regrouped with the few surviving members of the Elite Guard under Magnum, who planned to present them all to the [[Autobot High Council]] as living proof that the Elite Guard still had life in it. Unfortunately, as soon as they arrived in the [[Autobot High Council Citadel|Citadel]], they were witness to the reins of the new Autobot military being given instead to the Council&#039;s pet hero, [[Optimus Prime (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Optimus Prime]]. {{storylink|Battle Lines, Part 1}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Magnum took his team looking for [[Deathsaurus (Victory)|Deathsaurus]]&#039;s base, though Dion thought it felt like they were doing something illegal. They stopped off at the Elite Guard [[Auxiliary Weapons Locker]] for weapons and to pick up a few extra members. {{storylink|Battle Lines, Part 2}} In short order, they found themselves under attack from Deathsaurus&#039;s troops, including the Combaticons. Thunder Clash told them to keep the Combaticons apart, something Dion thought was easier said than done. He was further perturbed when Swindle tried to sell him guns in mid-battle. As the Combaticons formed Bruticus, they were promptly blasted and Dion could only gape disbelievingly at {{storylink|Battle Lines, Part 3}} Ironfist, Big Bang, [[Rumbler (G1)|Rumbler]], and [[Sprocket (G1)|Sprocket]]. To Dion&#039;s delight, they&#039;d survived the massacre at Elite Guard HQ. Once they joined the fight, Dion attempted to attack Swindle, only to be hit from behind by another Decepticon. {{storylink|Battle Lines, Part 4}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Back at base, he, Big Bang, and Thunder Clash wondered why the [[Gyronian Sentry|Gyronian Sentry Team]] hadn&#039;t arrived with the Combaticons yet, only to discover that the Sentry Team had been AWOL for the last decacycle. A week later, he interrupted a conversation between Magnum and Optimus Prime to report that the Decepticons were massing at the edge of [[Iacon (polity)|Iacon]] city. He and the two commanders watched in shock as [[Devastator (G1)|Devastator]] broke through the city wall. {{storylink|Battle Lines, Part 5}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:BattleLines6-DionMagnum.jpg|left|thumb|upright=1.66|I&#039;m dyin&#039; here!]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Devastator advanced effortlessly through the Autobot ranks. Dion was a quick thinker and suggested everyone aim at Devastator&#039;s knees. This separated the titan, and Magnum commended his excellent strategy, adding that some day Dion would be a &amp;quot;great Magnum.&amp;quot; Even with Devastator down, the Autobots still had Megatron to deal with. With a blast of his fusion cannon, he destroyed Magnum and would have also destroyed Optimus Prime if Dion hadn&#039;t taken the shot meant for him. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Though both Magnum and Dion fell, the Autobots were ultimately victorious. In the wake of their victory, Alpha Trion did what he could for Magnum and Dion, but he told Optimus Prime only one of them could survive their wounds. One died and the other was rebuilt into [[Ultra Magnus (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Ultra Magnus]]. {{storylink|Battle Lines, Part 6}}&lt;br /&gt;

==Games==&lt;br /&gt;
===&#039;&#039;Transformers Legends&#039;&#039;===&lt;br /&gt;
Dion was a dock worker who was friends with the archivists Orion Pax and Ariel. He and his friends encountered a group of time-traveling [[Aerialbot (G1)|Aerialbots]], after which Dion was attacked by Decepticons who were seeking to prevent Pax&#039;s ascension to Autobot leader. {{storylink|Golden Age (Legends)|Golden Age}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===&#039;&#039;Transformers: Battle Tactics&#039;&#039;===&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Battle-Tactics-Dion.jpg|thumb|400px|WhY mY hEaD hUrT?]]&lt;br /&gt;
Dion participated in battles against a variety of opponents, both Autobots and Decepticons. Sometimes there were many of him! He could be recruited during the October Daily Campaign by collecting 20 Alpha cores, 20 Beta cores, 20 Omega cores, and 10 cores of this character. {{storylink|Transformers: Battle Tactics}}&lt;br /&gt;
{{--}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Who is Dion?==&lt;br /&gt;
===Fan speculation===&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:DieDionDie.jpg|upright=1.1|thumb|Nobody ever suggests the purple guy got rebuilt. Poor purple guy.]]&lt;br /&gt;
Orion Pax and Ariel were rebuilt into Optimus Prime and Elita One respectively, so for decades many fans speculated that Dion was also rebuilt into a familiar character. However, there are no hints within the episode itself, other than that Dion was Orion&#039;s best friend. Regardless, the fandom loves its patterns, and thus the most popular suggestions are [[Ironhide (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Ironhide]] and [[Ultra Magnus (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Ultra Magnus]]. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Some think the debate is irrelevant, believing Dion most likely died and was inconsequential (the script has Megatron expressly call for their &amp;quot;permanent&amp;quot; deactivation before they are shot), and possibly a casualty that hit close to home in Optimus Prime&#039;s early years as [[Supreme Commander|Autobot leader]]. After all, no specific mention is made of him in the episode after he is shot, but Ariel is mentioned repeatedly. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The reason for this is that writer [[David Wise]] originally intended for both Ariel and Dion to die in order to add some weight to the episode. Upon reading the script for &amp;quot;War Dawn&amp;quot;, colleagues of Wise made the connection between Ariel and Elita One (a character whom David Wise did not know of) as a love interest of Orion Pax/Optimus Prime.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;[http://web.archive.org/web/20040806162116/iesb.net/collecting/collecting63004.htm Interview with David Wise]&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; This saved Ariel&#039;s life in the final product, as it was an obvious idea to have her rebuilt into a soldier alongside Orion. Any similar connection for Dion was never made, though the resulting conclusion on his fate in the episode gets into the realm of [[authorial intent]].&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Moonbase2&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[http://moonbase2.libsyn.com/index.php?post_id=553015 Moonbase2 interview with David Wise]&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Other continuities===&lt;br /&gt;
In later years, many unrelated or tangentially related [[Continuity|continuities]] would include nods and references to the [[personal canon|fan theories]] about Dion&#039;s ultimate fate:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*In the [[Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2001 cartoon)|2001 &#039;&#039;Robots in Disguise&#039;&#039;]] episode &amp;quot;[[Ultra Magnus: Forced Fusion!]]&amp;quot;, it&#039;s stated that [[Alpha Trion (RID)|Alpha Trion]] built both [[Optimus Prime (RID)|Optimus Prime]] and [[Ultra Magnus (RID)|Ultra Magnus]], likely a nod to the Generation 1 cartoon.&lt;br /&gt;
*In the [[Dreamwave Productions|Dreamwave]] [[Dreamwave Generation One continuity|comic]] &amp;quot;[[New World Order]]&amp;quot;, Ultra Magnus leads [[Security Team Dion]], another nod.&lt;br /&gt;
*In the [[IDW Publishing|IDW]] [[IDW Generation 1 continuity|comic]] [[Megatron Origin issue 3|&#039;&#039;Megatron Origin&#039;&#039; #3]], a robot that is a hybrid of the &amp;quot;Orion Pax&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;Optronix&amp;quot; designs appears listening to [[Sentinel Prime (G1)|Sentinel Prime]]&#039;s speech at the funeral of [[Bumper (G1)|Bumper]] and [[Fastback (G1)|Fastback]]. Standing with him are Elita One, Alpha Trion, and a white version of himself. This may be a reference to the proposed Orion-Ariel-Dion/Optimus-Elita-Magnus identifications.&lt;br /&gt;
*In the Dreamwave &#039;&#039;[[Transformers: More than Meets the Eye|More than Meets the Eye]]&#039;&#039; reference books it is mentioned in Alpha Trion&#039;s profile that he shares a &amp;quot;special bond&amp;quot; with both Ultra Magnus and Optimus Prime. This is possibly a hint that he rebuilt Ultra Magnus as well, given that his bond with Optimus began when he rebuilt him and as a result, Optimus looked up to him as a father figure.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;However&#039;&#039;, because all of these [[easter egg]]s take place in different continuities from the [[The Transformers (cartoon)|Generation 1 cartoon series]], they are not directly relevant. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:BattleLines6-UltraMagnus.jpg|thumb|upright=1.66|Oof.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Special mention should be made of the &#039;&#039;[[Transformers Timelines (fiction)|Timelines]]&#039;&#039; sub-franchise &#039;&#039;[[Transformers: Wings Universe|Wings Universe]]&#039;&#039;. As the franchise&#039;s storyline occurs in a continuity that is &amp;quot;VERY similar to [[The Transformers (cartoon)|the original G1 toon]], though it is different enough to allow us some leeway in the overall story telling,&amp;quot;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;[http://www.transformersclub.com/members/transforum/msgs.cfm?forum=22&amp;amp;msg=125826 Collectors&#039; Club forum thread]&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; it may have more relevance to the question of Dion&#039;s identity than other continuities. This story at first makes the wild assertion that Dion is... Dion (and definitely not Ironhide). However, in &amp;quot;[[Battle Lines, Part 6]]&amp;quot;, both Dion and another robot, Magnum, are critically wounded, and the story leaves the question of which of the two would be rebuilt by Alpha Trion into Ultra Magnus ambiguous. As a result, the question of &amp;quot;Who is Dion?&amp;quot; becomes instead &amp;quot;Who is Ultra Magnus?&amp;quot; Well played, [[Fun Publications]], well played.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{-}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===The official word===&lt;br /&gt;
In &#039;&#039;[[Transformers Animated: The AllSpark Almanac II]]&#039;&#039;, an &amp;quot;[[Ask Vector Prime]]&amp;quot; section dealt with the problem by ducking the question. When asked if Dion was rebuilt into anyone, the enigmatic cosmic entity replied &amp;quot;Which Dion? Celine Dion? I loved &#039;&#039;[[Titanic]]&#039;&#039;.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Twenty-five years after the episode aired, [[Hasbro]] weighed in on the question. When asked point-blank what Dion&#039;s fate was in an [[Hasbro Q&amp;amp;A|online Q&amp;amp;A]] session, their response included the following unequivocal statement: &amp;quot;Dion was never rebuilt into any other character.&amp;quot;&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;tfviews.com&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

:&#039;&#039;Dion is an [[Autobot]] from the [[The Transformers (cartoon)|cartoon portion]] of the [[Generation 1 continuity family]].&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Diong1.jpg|upright=1.4|thumb|Anyone ever tell you that you look just like Wheelie?&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;No? Oh. How about Hot Shot?]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Dion&#039;&#039;&#039; is an earnest dock worker and best friend to [[Optimus Prime (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Orion Pax]]. His is a simple life of manual labor, and he does not give a second thought to the stories that a war may be brewing around him. What &#039;&#039;does&#039;&#039; interest him are those [[Decepticon|new-fangled flying robots]]. Maybe someday he&#039;ll get to meet them...?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Fiction==&lt;br /&gt;
===&#039;&#039;The Transformers&#039;&#039; cartoon===&lt;br /&gt;
{{voiceactor|[[Corey Burton]] (English), [[Ken Shiroyama]] (Japanese)}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Dionvehicle.jpg|left|upright=1.4|thumb|Cybertron&#039;s &amp;quot;Golden Age&amp;quot; was a pretty literal title, if you look.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Nine million years ago, near the end of [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]]&#039;s [[Golden Age]], it was Dion&#039;s job to haul energy and supplies in and out of [[storage yard 67|the dock]] in which he worked. There were murmurs of attacks from new, flying robots, but he didn&#039;t believe those rumours.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Dion was honored to meet the leader of these enigmatic warriors, [[Megatron (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Megatron]], until Megatron revealed his plan to rob their dock of its [[energon]] stockpiles and ordered the [[Dropkick (G1)|Decepticons]] to attack. Witnessing Megatron strike down Orion, [[Elita One (G1)|Ariel]], and another friend, Dion ran (seemingly straight towards the attacking Decepticon warriors for reasons unclear), but was quickly mowed down by a shot in his chest.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The time-traveling [[Aerialbot (G1)|Aerialbots]] carried Orion Pax to [[Alpha Trion (G1)|Alpha Trion]] for repairs, and Dion&#039;s friend was rebuilt into Optimus Prime. Drones were sent back to retrieve Ariel, but Dion was never rebuilt&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;tfviews.com&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[http://www.tfviews.com/news/main/hasbro-q-and-a/1024 TFviews June 2010 Hasbro Transformers Q&amp;amp;A]&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; and presumably died. {{storylink|War Dawn (episode)|War Dawn}}&lt;br /&gt;

[[File:BattleLines1-DionOrionAriel.jpg|thumb|upright=1.4|Don&#039;t you hate it when your life is narrated by [[Side Burn (RID)|Side Burn]]?]]&lt;br /&gt;
In a similar but divergent timeline, Dion definitely survived Megatron&#039;s raid on [[storage yard 67]], but just barely. Once reactivated and rebuilt top to bottom (with the help of [[Cop-Tur (G1)|Cop-Tur]]), he was approached by [[Sentinel Major]] and [[Magnum]]. {{storylink|Battle Lines, Part 1}} Now fully knowledgeable of the extent of Megatron&#039;s evil, Dion signed away his life to the [[Cybertron Elite Guard|Elite Guard]], believing he&#039;d lost everything he&#039;d known to war. Dion was assigned to [[Metalhawk (Masterforce)|Metalhawk]]&#039;s team, he and determined to fight Decepticons by any means necessary.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Dion&#039;s new twin flame launchers utilize a &amp;quot;[[Reverse-Higgs mechanism]]&amp;quot; to &amp;quot;decouple energy from matter&amp;quot;, which makes things very destructible. Though rebuilt, he can still modify his arms to accommodate the need to carry heavy objects, a skill he possessed as a dock worker. Unfortunately, his new shoulders kind of lock up, which restricts his arms&#039; movement. {{storylink|Wings of Honor|Dion&#039;s Wings Universe profile}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:ComingStorm2-Dion.jpg|left|thumb|upright=1.66|Nobody wants [[BotCon 2005]]&#039;s Virulent Clones, not even Dion!]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
On Dion&#039;s first mission, he, his commander Metalhawk, and his teammates [[Over-Run (G1)|Over-Run]] and [[Ironfist (G1)|Ironfist]] allied with [[Thunder Clash|Thunderclash]]&#039;s Elite Guard team to fight a plague of [[Virulent Clone]]s. Getting covered with [[Insecticon (G1)|Insecticon]] goop was not exactly what Dion had in mind for his first foray into action, but nevertheless the clones were defeated.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
They all relaxed for a bit, until a call from [[Magnum]] bleeped over Thunder Clash&#039;s comm, informing them that Metalhawk&#039;s squad had to ferry Thunder Clash&#039;s squad to [[Space Port Bravo]] straightaway. Dion and [[Kup (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Kup]] helped load their gear onto the &#039;&#039;[[Hawk&#039;s Claw]]&#039;&#039;, then they disembarked.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Once at the spaceport, the two squads bid their goodbyes. Kup told Dion that he&#039;d make sure to share any stories he came across with the &amp;quot;lad&amp;quot;. When Dion reacted to the nickname by pointing out Kup wasn&#039;t &#039;&#039;that&#039;&#039; much older, Kup said it was just the first time he got to meet a younger Elite Guard member.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After Thunder Clash&#039;s squad left, Dion&#039;s squad speculated where they&#039;d end up next. The others expressed a wish for something quiet, and Dion teased them that &#039;&#039;he&#039;&#039; actually looked forward to getting to beat up Decepticons. When Over-Run chastised Dion&#039;s eagerness by asking if the younger bot had ever seen a Decepticon up close, Dion stalked off angrily, much to Over-Run and Ironfist&#039;s confusion.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The squad eventually reboarded their ship and headed to Elite Guard HQ. There they were highly praised for their performance by Magnum, and assigned to a new mission—assisting a [[Combaticon (G1)|new special ops team]] in attacks against the various [[Decepticon leader]]s. {{storylink|The Coming Storm: Part 2}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Dion was unimpressed with [[Sentinel Major]]&#039;s play-on-words: Combaticons &amp;quot;to &#039;&#039;Combat&#039;&#039; the Decepti&#039;&#039;cons&#039;&#039;&amp;quot;, but let the matter drop as the two units reported to Comm Officer [[Big Bang]] for their next mission. The two teams were being assigned to a civilian historical dig in [[Median]] to assist in demolition and excavation, as part of Magnum&#039;s ongoing efforts to curry favor with the civilian council (and keep them from interfering in more serious Guard business). &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The diplomatic cakewalk soon turned out to be anything but. The historians expected to be under siege soon by a gang of Decepticon wannabes, who wanted the prize of their research: an urn containing the [[Heart of the Dragon]]. According to uncovered data, the Heart was apparently a spark of unprecedented innate power, able to reformat any normal Cybertronian form it resided in into a living engine of destruction. Dion and the Elite Guard had been requested in order to bolster the meager defensive fortifications that Security Chief [[Strika (BM)|Strika]] had assembled for the historians. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As they prepped the outer wall for attack, Dion engaged in a little star-gazing, dreamily recollecting stories of the [[Covenant (group)|Covenant]] he had heard as a protoform, like when [[Leonicus]] and [[Sandstorm (BW)|Scorpius]] battled the dreaded [[ice demon]]. Dion drew a few funny looks from his comrades, though, when he started mumbling aloud about how cool Scorpius&#039;s fire-breath was. Once the Guard finished their preparations, they separated into two groups to settle in for the Decepticon attack. Dion was teamed with Metalhawk, [[Swindle (G1)|Swindle]], [[Blast Off (G1)|Blast Off]], Over-Run, and the eager historian [[Lancer]] as the second front. After [[Onslaught (G1)|Onslaught]]&#039;s team wasted [[Roadgrabber]], the Decepticons&#039; advance striker, Dion&#039;s unit got the drop on [[Rage (G1)|Rage]] and the [[Stormtrooper (G1)|Stormtrooper]]s who followed through after Roadgrabber. Rage surprised Metalhawk with his stasis chemical cannon, though, and the Stormtroopers swooped past Dion and the Guard once their leader was rendered inoperative.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The defense of Median turned into a fiasco after that, with casualties on both sides as the archaeometrist [[Glyph (Universe)|Glyph]] was killed by one of Rage&#039;s raiders, [[Aquablast]], who was killed in turn by Lancer. Rage got away with the Heart, though, and the Elite Guard soon tracked him back to his mobile fortress, the [[Metrotitan (Zone)|Metrotitan]]. The Guard were assaulted by Rage&#039;s stable of [[Minotoron]]s, cybernetic mechanimals of great size and poor disposition. Dion came up with the idea of using the Tressian Kajiga-whatsits Swindle have scavenged earlier to overwhelm [[Buffalo Dump]] and the bulls with amplified sound. His plan was successful and the Minotorons were sent retreating back to the Metrotitan. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Thinking quickly, Dion, Swindle and Blast-Off lept into the rear pails of the fleeing mechanimals, gaining quick and easy access inside the Metrotitan. Using his duro lifters and booster units, Dion broke out of the pens and helped his fellow Autobots make their way inside. By this point, however, Rage had already installed the Heart of the Dragon&#039;s laser-core in a new body, birthing the powerful (if micro-sized) [[Brimstone (G1 Decepticon)|Brimstone]]. The Elite Guard played cat-and-mouse with the dragon inside Metrotitan until a combination of Ironfist&#039;s explosives cache and the dragon&#039;s own atom-smashing flame breath destroyed Brimstone from the inside out. {{storylink|Flames of Yesterday}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Dion&#039;s strike team continued to work with the Combaticons over the following weeks, and the two groups began to gel well together. After several successful missions, they separated after eliminating the Decepticon faction leader, [[Shadowcaster]]. {{storylink|The Coming Storm: Part 3}} Immediately the Combaticons disappeared, and Dion&#039;s team was ordered to try to hunt them down wherever they may be. Their search took them into some very unglamorous places, which Dion felt was a waste of time. He complained to Metalhawk that their search in the wastelands was a waste of time, which his commander agreed with, but reminded him was nevertheless an order. It was then that the team was approached by a demented Empty which spoke cryptically of a &amp;quot;coming storm&amp;quot; where &amp;quot;rain will fall down&amp;quot; and the &amp;quot;thunder will deafen you&amp;quot; and where the &amp;quot;lightning will burn.&amp;quot; After a bit of this, Dion&#039;s team grew weary of the Empty and left him. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:ComingStorm6-thelightning.jpg|thumb|upright=1.66|But who&#039;ll bring the potato salad?]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
But the Empty spoke true. Sentinel Major sent their team a distress call, as their Elite Guard headquarters was under attack. Metalhawk ordered his team back to base, where they met up with [[Ricochet (Timelines)|Ricochet]] on the outer skirts of the battle. He showed them a video feed of the battle&#039;s epicenter, where, bogglingly, the Combaticons had switched their allegiance to the Decepticons and had sieged the Elite Guard. Dion remarked that the group looked a little different than before, and, sure enough, the reason for this was revealed when the five Combaticons combined for the first time into the super robot [[Bruticus (G1)|Bruticus]], crushing Sentinel Major to death in his mighty fist. {{storylink|The Coming Storm: Part 5}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Metalhawk led Dion and the others deep into the battle to assist the dwindling members of the Elite Guard. Dodging the flung body of [[Crosscut (Autobot)|Crosscut]], Dion finally made it to Bruticus, who was massacring his opponents. His teammates Over-Run and Ironfist met their end at his hands, which prompted Metalhawk to consider retreating and regrouping. Dion disagreed. He was a member of the Elite Guard! They fight and never retreat! He vaulted himself onto Bruticus in [[alternate mode|vehicle mode]], transformed, and then repurposed the prophesy of the deranged Empty as he fired his arm-mounted weapons into the super robot&#039;s face: &amp;quot;While your boots &#039;&#039;may&#039;&#039; thunder, brute... I have the &#039;&#039;lightning&#039;&#039;!&amp;quot; Bruticus was blinded, forcing the combiner to separate, but not before he swatted Dion away, under a collapsing building. While the Combaticons retreated, Dion removed himself from the detritus, the lone survivor. {{storylink|The Coming Storm: Part 6}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Following the massacre, Dion was repaired by [[Ratchet (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Ratchet]] and [[Paradron Medic]]. (Dion was unaware that his personal story was being used elsewhere [[Side Burn (RID)|by an imposter]] to pick up chicks.) When Dion regained functionality, he regrouped with the few surviving members of the Elite Guard under Magnum, who planned to present them all to the [[Autobot High Council]] as living proof that the Elite Guard still had life in it. Unfortunately, as soon as they arrived in the [[Autobot High Council Citadel|Citadel]], they were witness to the reins of the new Autobot military being given instead to the Council&#039;s pet hero, [[Optimus Prime (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Optimus Prime]]. {{storylink|Battle Lines, Part 1}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Magnum took his team looking for [[Deathsaurus (Victory)|Deathsaurus]]&#039;s base, though Dion thought it felt like they were doing something illegal. They stopped off at the Elite Guard [[Auxiliary Weapons Locker]] for weapons and to pick up a few extra members. {{storylink|Battle Lines, Part 2}} In short order, they found themselves under attack from Deathsaurus&#039;s troops, including the Combaticons. Thunder Clash told them to keep the Combaticons apart, something Dion thought was easier said than done. He was further perturbed when Swindle tried to sell him guns in mid-battle. As the Combaticons formed Bruticus, they were promptly blasted and Dion could only gape disbelievingly at {{storylink|Battle Lines, Part 3}} Ironfist, Big Bang, [[Rumbler (G1)|Rumbler]], and [[Sprocket (G1)|Sprocket]]. To Dion&#039;s delight, they&#039;d survived the massacre at Elite Guard HQ. Once they joined the fight, Dion attempted to attack Swindle, only to be hit from behind by another Decepticon. {{storylink|Battle Lines, Part 4}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Back at base, he, Big Bang, and Thunder Clash wondered why the [[Gyronian Sentry|Gyronian Sentry Team]] hadn&#039;t arrived with the Combaticons yet, only to discover that the Sentry Team had been AWOL for the last decacycle. A week later, he interrupted a conversation between Magnum and Optimus Prime to report that the Decepticons were massing at the edge of [[Iacon (polity)|Iacon]] city. He and the two commanders watched in shock as [[Devastator (G1)|Devastator]] broke through the city wall. {{storylink|Battle Lines, Part 5}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:BattleLines6-DionMagnum.jpg|left|thumb|upright=1.66|I&#039;m dyin&#039; here!]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Devastator advanced effortlessly through the Autobot ranks. Dion was a quick thinker and suggested everyone aim at Devastator&#039;s knees. This separated the titan, and Magnum commended his excellent strategy, adding that some day Dion would be a &amp;quot;great Magnum.&amp;quot; Even with Devastator down, the Autobots still had Megatron to deal with. With a blast of his fusion cannon, he destroyed Magnum and would have also destroyed Optimus Prime if Dion hadn&#039;t taken the shot meant for him. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Though both Magnum and Dion fell, the Autobots were ultimately victorious. In the wake of their victory, Alpha Trion did what he could for Magnum and Dion, but he told Optimus Prime only one of them could survive their wounds. One died and the other was rebuilt into [[Ultra Magnus (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Ultra Magnus]]. {{storylink|Battle Lines, Part 6}}&lt;br /&gt;

==Games==&lt;br /&gt;
===&#039;&#039;Transformers Legends&#039;&#039;===&lt;br /&gt;
Dion was a dock worker who was friends with the archivists Orion Pax and Ariel. He and his friends encountered a group of time-traveling [[Aerialbot (G1)|Aerialbots]], after which Dion was attacked by Decepticons who were seeking to prevent Pax&#039;s ascension to Autobot leader. {{storylink|Golden Age (Legends)|Golden Age}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===&#039;&#039;Transformers: Battle Tactics&#039;&#039;===&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Battle-Tactics-Dion.jpg|thumb|400px|WhY mY hEaD hUrT?]]&lt;br /&gt;
Dion participated in battles against a variety of opponents, both Autobots and Decepticons. Sometimes there were many of him! He could be recruited during the October Daily Campaign by collecting 20 Alpha cores, 20 Beta cores, 20 Omega cores, and 10 cores of this character. {{storylink|Transformers: Battle Tactics}}&lt;br /&gt;
{{--}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Who is Dion?==&lt;br /&gt;
===Fan speculation===&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:DieDionDie.jpg|upright=1.1|thumb|Nobody ever suggests the purple guy got rebuilt. Poor purple guy.]]&lt;br /&gt;
Orion Pax and Ariel were rebuilt into Optimus Prime and Elita One respectively, so for decades many fans speculated that Dion was also rebuilt into a familiar character. However, there are no hints within the episode itself, other than that Dion was Orion&#039;s best friend. Regardless, the fandom loves its patterns, and thus the most popular suggestions are [[Ironhide (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Ironhide]] and [[Ultra Magnus (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Ultra Magnus]]. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Some think the debate is irrelevant, believing Dion most likely died and was inconsequential (the script has Megatron expressly call for their &amp;quot;permanent&amp;quot; deactivation before they are shot), and possibly a casualty that hit close to home in Optimus Prime&#039;s early years as [[Supreme Commander|Autobot leader]]. After all, no specific mention is made of him in the episode after he is shot, but Ariel is mentioned repeatedly. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The reason for this is that writer [[David Wise]] originally intended for both Ariel and Dion to die in order to add some weight to the episode. Upon reading the script for &amp;quot;War Dawn&amp;quot;, colleagues of Wise made the connection between Ariel and Elita One (a character whom David Wise did not know of) as love interest of Orion Pax/Optimus Prime.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;[http://web.archive.org/web/20040806162116/iesb.net/collecting/collecting63004.htm Interview with David Wise]&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; This saved Ariel&#039;s life in the final product, as it was an obvious idea to have her rebuilt into a soldier alongside Orion. Any similar connection for Dion was never made, though the resulting conclusion on his fate in the episode gets into the realm of [[authorial intent]].&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Moonbase2&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[http://moonbase2.libsyn.com/index.php?post_id=553015 Moonbase2 interview with David Wise]&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Other continuities===&lt;br /&gt;
In later years, many unrelated or tangentially related [[Continuity|continuities]] would include nods and references to the [[personal canon|fan theories]] about Dion&#039;s ultimate fate:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*In the [[Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2001 cartoon)|2001 &#039;&#039;Robots in Disguise&#039;&#039;]] episode &amp;quot;[[Ultra Magnus: Forced Fusion!]]&amp;quot;, it&#039;s stated that [[Alpha Trion (RID)|Alpha Trion]] built both [[Optimus Prime (RID)|Optimus Prime]] and [[Ultra Magnus (RID)|Ultra Magnus]], likely a nod to the Generation 1 cartoon.&lt;br /&gt;
*In the [[Dreamwave Productions|Dreamwave]] [[Dreamwave Generation One continuity|comic]] &amp;quot;[[New World Order]]&amp;quot;, Ultra Magnus leads [[Security Team Dion]], another nod.&lt;br /&gt;
*In the [[IDW Publishing|IDW]] [[IDW Generation 1 continuity|comic]] [[Megatron Origin issue 3|&#039;&#039;Megatron Origin&#039;&#039; #3]], a robot that is a hybrid of the &amp;quot;Orion Pax&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;Optronix&amp;quot; designs appears listening to [[Sentinel Prime (G1)|Sentinel Prime]]&#039;s speech at the funeral of [[Bumper (G1)|Bumper]] and [[Fastback (G1)|Fastback]]. Standing with him are Elita One, Alpha Trion, and a white version of himself. This may be a reference to the proposed Orion-Ariel-Dion/Optimus-Elita-Magnus identifications.&lt;br /&gt;
*In the Dreamwave &#039;&#039;[[Transformers: More than Meets the Eye|More than Meets the Eye]]&#039;&#039; reference books it is mentioned in Alpha Trion&#039;s profile that he shares a &amp;quot;special bond&amp;quot; with both Ultra Magnus and Optimus Prime. This is possibly a hint that he rebuilt Ultra Magnus as well, given that his bond with Optimus began when he rebuilt him and as a result, Optimus looked up to him as a father figure.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;However&#039;&#039;, because all of these [[easter egg]]s take place in different continuities from the [[The Transformers (cartoon)|Generation 1 cartoon series]], they are not directly relevant. &lt;br /&gt;

Special mention should be made of the &#039;&#039;[[Transformers Timelines (fiction)|Timelines]]&#039;&#039; sub-franchise &#039;&#039;[[Transformers: Wings Universe|Wings Universe]]&#039;&#039;. As the franchise&#039;s storyline occurs in a continuity that is &amp;quot;VERY similar to [[The Transformers (cartoon)|the original G1 toon]], though it is different enough to allow us some leeway in the overall story telling,&amp;quot;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;[http://www.transformersclub.com/members/transforum/msgs.cfm?forum=22&amp;amp;msg=125826 Collectors&#039; Club forum thread]&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; it may have more relevance to the question of Dion&#039;s identity than other continuities. This story at first makes the wild assertion that Dion is... Dion (and definitely not Ironhide). However, in &amp;quot;[[Battle Lines, Part 6]]&amp;quot;, both Dion and another robot, Magnum, are critically wounded, and the story leaves the question of which of the two would be rebuilt by Alpha Trion into Ultra Magnus ambiguous. As a result, the question of &amp;quot;Who is Dion?&amp;quot; becomes instead &amp;quot;Who is Ultra Magnus?&amp;quot; Well played, [[Fun Publications]], well played.&lt;br /&gt;

In &#039;&#039;[[Transformers Animated: The AllSpark Almanac II]]&#039;&#039;, an &amp;quot;[[Ask Vector Prime]]&amp;quot; section dealt with the problem by ducking the question. When asked if Dion was rebuilt into anyone, the enigmatic cosmic entity replied &amp;quot;Which Dion? Celine Dion? I loved &#039;&#039;[[Titanic]]&#039;&#039;.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Twenty-five years after the episode aired, [[Hasbro]] weighed in on the question. When asked point-blank what Dion&#039;s fate was in an [[Hasbro Q&amp;amp;A|online Q&amp;amp;A]] session, their response included the following unequivocal statement: &amp;quot;Dion was never rebuilt into any other character.&amp;quot;&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;tfviews.com&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

:&#039;&#039;Dion is an [[Autobot]] from the [[The Transformers (cartoon)|cartoon portion]] of the [[Generation 1 continuity family]].&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Diong1.jpg|upright=1.4|thumb|Anyone ever tell you that you look just like Wheelie?&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;No? Oh. How about Hot Shot?]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Dion&#039;&#039;&#039; is an earnest dock worker and best friend to [[Optimus Prime (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Orion Pax]]. His is a simple life of manual labor, and he does not give a second thought to the stories that a war may be brewing around him. What &#039;&#039;does&#039;&#039; interest him are those [[Decepticon|new-fangled flying robots]]. Maybe someday he&#039;ll get to meet them...?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Fiction==&lt;br /&gt;
===&#039;&#039;The Transformers&#039;&#039; cartoon===&lt;br /&gt;
{{voiceactor|[[Corey Burton]] (English), [[Ken Shiroyama]] (Japanese)}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Dionvehicle.jpg|left|upright=1.4|thumb|Cybertron&#039;s &amp;quot;Golden Age&amp;quot; was a pretty literal title, if you look.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Nine million years ago, near the end of [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]]&#039;s [[Golden Age]], it was Dion&#039;s job to haul energy and supplies in and out of [[storage yard 67|the dock]] in which he worked. There were murmurs of attacks from new, flying robots, but he didn&#039;t believe those rumours.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Dion was honored to meet the leader of these enigmatic warriors, [[Megatron (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Megatron]], until Megatron revealed his plan to rob their dock of its [[energon]] stockpiles and ordered the [[Dropkick (G1)|Decepticons]] to attack. Witnessing Megatron strike down Orion, [[Elita One (G1)|Ariel]], and another friend, Dion ran (seemingly straight towards the attacking Decepticon warriors for reasons unclear), but was quickly mowed down by a shot in his chest.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The time-traveling [[Aerialbot (G1)|Aerialbots]] carried Orion Pax to [[Alpha Trion (G1)|Alpha Trion]] for repairs, and Dion&#039;s friend was rebuilt into Optimus Prime. Drones were sent back to retrieve Ariel, but Dion was never rebuilt&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;tfviews.com&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[http://www.tfviews.com/news/main/hasbro-q-and-a/1024 TFviews June 2010 Hasbro Transformers Q&amp;amp;A]&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; and presumably died. {{storylink|War Dawn (episode)|War Dawn}}&lt;br /&gt;

[[File:BattleLines1-DionOrionAriel.jpg|thumb|upright=1.4|Don&#039;t you hate it when your life is narrated by [[Side Burn (RID)|Side Burn]]?]]&lt;br /&gt;
In a similar but divergent timeline, Dion definitely survived Megatron&#039;s raid on [[storage yard 67]], but just barely. Once reactivated and rebuilt top to bottom (with the help of [[Cop-Tur (G1)|Cop-Tur]]), he was approached by [[Sentinel Major]] and [[Magnum]]. {{storylink|Battle Lines, Part 1}} Now fully knowledgeable of the extent of Megatron&#039;s evil, Dion signed away his life to the [[Cybertron Elite Guard|Elite Guard]], believing he&#039;d lost everything he&#039;d known to war. Dion was assigned to [[Metalhawk (Masterforce)|Metalhawk]]&#039;s team, he and determined to fight Decepticons by any means necessary.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Dion&#039;s new twin flame launchers utilize a &amp;quot;[[Reverse-Higgs mechanism]]&amp;quot; to &amp;quot;decouple energy from matter&amp;quot;, which makes things very destructible. Though rebuilt, he can still modify his arms to accommodate the need to carry heavy objects, a skill he possessed as a dock worker. Unfortunately, his new shoulders kind of lock up, which restricts his arms&#039; movement. {{storylink|Wings of Honor|Dion&#039;s Wings Universe profile}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:ComingStorm2-Dion.jpg|left|thumb|upright=1.66|Nobody wants [[BotCon 2005]]&#039;s Virulent Clones, not even Dion!]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
On Dion&#039;s first mission, he, his commander Metalhawk, and his teammates [[Over-Run (G1)|Over-Run]] and [[Ironfist (G1)|Ironfist]] allied with [[Thunder Clash|Thunderclash]]&#039;s Elite Guard team to fight a plague of [[Virulent Clone]]s. Getting covered with [[Insecticon (G1)|Insecticon]] goop was not exactly what Dion had in mind for his first foray into action, but nevertheless the clones were defeated.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
They all relaxed for a bit, until a call from [[Magnum]] bleeped over Thunder Clash&#039;s comm, informing them that Metalhawk&#039;s squad had to ferry Thunder Clash&#039;s squad to [[Space Port Bravo]] straightaway. Dion and [[Kup (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Kup]] helped load their gear onto the &#039;&#039;[[Hawk&#039;s Claw]]&#039;&#039;, then they disembarked.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Once at the spaceport, the two squads bid their goodbyes. Kup told Dion that he&#039;d make sure to share any stories he came across with the &amp;quot;lad&amp;quot;. When Dion reacted to the nickname by pointing out Kup wasn&#039;t &#039;&#039;that&#039;&#039; much older, Kup said it was just the first time he got to meet a younger Elite Guard member.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After Thunder Clash&#039;s squad left, Dion&#039;s squad speculated where they&#039;d end up next. The others expressed a wish for something quiet, and Dion teased them that &#039;&#039;he&#039;&#039; actually looked forward to getting to beat up Decepticons. When Over-Run chastised Dion&#039;s eagerness by asking if the younger bot had ever seen a Decepticon up close, Dion stalked off angrily, much to Over-Run and Ironfist&#039;s confusion.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The squad eventually reboarded their ship and headed to Elite Guard HQ. There they were highly praised for their performance by Magnum, and assigned to a new mission—assisting a [[Combaticon (G1)|new special ops team]] in attacks against the various [[Decepticon leader]]s. {{storylink|The Coming Storm: Part 2}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Dion was unimpressed with [[Sentinel Major]]&#039;s play-on-words: Combaticons &amp;quot;to &#039;&#039;Combat&#039;&#039; the Decepti&#039;&#039;cons&#039;&#039;&amp;quot;, but let the matter drop as the two units reported to Comm Officer [[Big Bang]] for their next mission. The two teams were being assigned to a civilian historical dig in [[Median]] to assist in demolition and excavation, as part of Magnum&#039;s ongoing efforts to curry favor with the civilian council (and keep them from interfering in more serious Guard business). &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The diplomatic cakewalk soon turned out to be anything but. The historians expected to be under siege soon by a gang of Decepticon wannabes, who wanted the prize of their research: an urn containing the [[Heart of the Dragon]]. According to uncovered data, the Heart was apparently a spark of unprecedented innate power, able to reformat any normal Cybertronian form it resided in into a living engine of destruction. Dion and the Elite Guard had been requested in order to bolster the meager defensive fortifications that Security Chief [[Strika (BM)|Strika]] had assembled for the historians. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As they prepped the outer wall for attack, Dion engaged in a little star-gazing, dreamily recollecting stories of the [[Covenant (group)|Covenant]] he had heard as a protoform, like when [[Leonicus]] and [[Sandstorm (BW)|Scorpius]] battled the dreaded [[ice demon]]. Dion drew a few funny looks from his comrades, though, when he started mumbling aloud about how cool Scorpius&#039;s fire-breath was. Once the Guard finished their preparations, they separated into two groups to settle in for the Decepticon attack. Dion was teamed with Metalhawk, [[Swindle (G1)|Swindle]], [[Blast Off (G1)|Blast Off]], Over-Run, and the eager historian [[Lancer]] as the second front. After [[Onslaught (G1)|Onslaught]]&#039;s team wasted [[Roadgrabber]], the Decepticons&#039; advance striker, Dion&#039;s unit got the drop on [[Rage (G1)|Rage]] and the [[Stormtrooper (G1)|Stormtrooper]]s who followed through after Roadgrabber. Rage surprised Metalhawk with his stasis chemical cannon, though, and the Stormtroopers swooped past Dion and the Guard once their leader was rendered inoperative.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The defense of Median turned into a fiasco after that, with casualties on both sides as the archaeometrist [[Glyph (Universe)|Glyph]] was killed by one of Rage&#039;s raiders, [[Aquablast]], who was killed in turn by Lancer. Rage got away with the Heart, though, and the Elite Guard soon tracked him back to his mobile fortress, the [[Metrotitan (Zone)|Metrotitan]]. The Guard were assaulted by Rage&#039;s stable of [[Minotoron]]s, cybernetic mechanimals of great size and poor disposition. Dion came up with the idea of using the Tressian Kajiga-whatsits Swindle have scavenged earlier to overwhelm [[Buffalo Dump]] and the bulls with amplified sound. His plan was successful and the Minotorons were sent retreating back to the Metrotitan. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Thinking quickly, Dion, Swindle and Blast-Off lept into the rear pails of the fleeing mechanimals, gaining quick and easy access inside the Metrotitan. Using his duro lifters and booster units, Dion broke out of the pens and helped his fellow Autobots make their way inside. By this point, however, Rage had already installed the Heart of the Dragon&#039;s laser-core in a new body, birthing the powerful (if micro-sized) [[Brimstone (G1 Decepticon)|Brimstone]]. The Elite Guard played cat-and-mouse with the dragon inside Metrotitan until a combination of Ironfist&#039;s explosives cache and the dragon&#039;s own atom-smashing flame breath destroyed Brimstone from the inside out. {{storylink|Flames of Yesterday}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Dion&#039;s strike team continued to work with the Combaticons over the following weeks, and the two groups began to gel well together. After several successful missions, they separated after eliminating the Decepticon faction leader, [[Shadowcaster]]. {{storylink|The Coming Storm: Part 3}} Immediately the Combaticons disappeared, and Dion&#039;s team was ordered to try to hunt them down wherever they may be. Their search took them into some very unglamorous places, which Dion felt was a waste of time. He complained to Metalhawk that their search in the wastelands was a waste of time, which his commander agreed with, but reminded him was nevertheless an order. It was then that the team was approached by a demented Empty which spoke cryptically of a &amp;quot;coming storm&amp;quot; where &amp;quot;rain will fall down&amp;quot; and the &amp;quot;thunder will deafen you&amp;quot; and where the &amp;quot;lightning will burn.&amp;quot; After a bit of this, Dion&#039;s team grew weary of the Empty and left him. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:ComingStorm6-thelightning.jpg|thumb|upright=1.66|But who&#039;ll bring the potato salad?]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
But the Empty spoke true. Sentinel Major sent their team a distress call, as their Elite Guard headquarters was under attack. Metalhawk ordered his team back to base, where they met up with [[Ricochet (Timelines)|Ricochet]] on the outer skirts of the battle. He showed them a video feed of the battle&#039;s epicenter, where, bogglingly, the Combaticons had switched their allegiance to the Decepticons and had sieged the Elite Guard. Dion remarked that the group looked a little different than before, and, sure enough, the reason for this was revealed when the five Combaticons combined for the first time into the super robot [[Bruticus (G1)|Bruticus]], crushing Sentinel Major to death in his mighty fist. {{storylink|The Coming Storm: Part 5}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Metalhawk led Dion and the others deep into the battle to assist the dwindling members of the Elite Guard. Dodging the flung body of [[Crosscut (Autobot)|Crosscut]], Dion finally made it to Bruticus, who was massacring his opponents. His teammates Over-Run and Ironfist met their end at his hands, which prompted Metalhawk to consider retreating and regrouping. Dion disagreed. He was a member of the Elite Guard! They fight and never retreat! He vaulted himself onto Bruticus in [[alternate mode|vehicle mode]], transformed, and then repurposed the prophesy of the deranged Empty as he fired his arm-mounted weapons into the super robot&#039;s face: &amp;quot;While your boots &#039;&#039;may&#039;&#039; thunder, brute... I have the &#039;&#039;lightning&#039;&#039;!&amp;quot; Bruticus was blinded, forcing the combiner to separate, but not before he swatted Dion away, under a collapsing building. While the Combaticons retreated, Dion removed himself from the detritus, the lone survivor. {{storylink|The Coming Storm: Part 6}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Following the massacre, Dion was repaired by [[Ratchet (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Ratchet]] and [[Paradron Medic]]. (Dion was unaware that his personal story was being used elsewhere [[Side Burn (RID)|by an imposter]] to pick up chicks.) When Dion regained functionality, he regrouped with the few surviving members of the Elite Guard under Magnum, who planned to present them all to the [[Autobot High Council]] as living proof that the Elite Guard still had life in it. Unfortunately, as soon as they arrived in the [[Autobot High Council Citadel|Citadel]], they were witness to the reins of the new Autobot military being given instead to the Council&#039;s pet hero, [[Optimus Prime (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Optimus Prime]]. {{storylink|Battle Lines, Part 1}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Magnum took his team looking for [[Deathsaurus (Victory)|Deathsaurus]]&#039;s base, though Dion thought it felt like they were doing something illegal. They stopped off at the Elite Guard [[Auxiliary Weapons Locker]] for weapons and to pick up a few extra members. {{storylink|Battle Lines, Part 2}} In short order, they found themselves under attack from Deathsaurus&#039;s troops, including the Combaticons. Thunder Clash told them to keep the Combaticons apart, something Dion thought was easier said than done. He was further perturbed when Swindle tried to sell him guns in mid-battle. As the Combaticons formed Bruticus, they were promptly blasted and Dion could only gape disbelievingly at {{storylink|Battle Lines, Part 3}} Ironfist, Big Bang, [[Rumbler (G1)|Rumbler]], and [[Sprocket (G1)|Sprocket]]. To Dion&#039;s delight, they&#039;d survived the massacre at Elite Guard HQ. Once they joined the fight, Dion attempted to attack Swindle, only to be hit from behind by another Decepticon. {{storylink|Battle Lines, Part 4}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Back at base, he, Big Bang, and Thunder Clash wondered why the [[Gyronian Sentry|Gyronian Sentry Team]] hadn&#039;t arrived with the Combaticons yet, only to discover that the Sentry Team had been AWOL for the last decacycle. A week later, he interrupted a conversation between Magnum and Optimus Prime to report that the Decepticons were massing at the edge of [[Iacon (polity)|Iacon]] city. He and the two commanders watched in shock as [[Devastator (G1)|Devastator]] broke through the city wall. {{storylink|Battle Lines, Part 5}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:BattleLines6-DionMagnum.jpg|left|thumb|upright=1.66|I&#039;m dyin&#039; here!]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Devastator advanced effortlessly through the Autobot ranks. Dion was a quick thinker and suggested everyone aim at Devastator&#039;s knees. This separated the titan, and Magnum commended his excellent strategy, adding that some day Dion would be a &amp;quot;great Magnum.&amp;quot; Even with Devastator down, the Autobots still had Megatron to deal with. With a blast of his fusion cannon, he destroyed Magnum and would have also destroyed Optimus Prime if Dion hadn&#039;t taken the shot meant for him. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Though both Magnum and Dion fell, the Autobots were ultimately victorious. In the wake of their victory, Alpha Trion did what he could for Magnum and Dion, but he told Optimus Prime only one of them could survive their wounds. One died and the other was rebuilt into [[Ultra Magnus (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Ultra Magnus]]. {{storylink|Battle Lines, Part 6}}&lt;br /&gt;

[[File:Battle-Tactics-Dion.jpg|thumb|400px|WhY mY hEaD hUrT?]]&lt;br /&gt;
Dion participated in battles against a variety of opponents, both Autobots and Decepticons. Sometimes there were many of him! He could be recruited during the October Daily Campaign by collecting 20 Alpha cores, 20 Beta cores, 20 Omega cores, and 10 cores of this character. {{storylink|Transformers: Battle Tactics}}&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
==Who is Dion?==&lt;br /&gt;
===Fan speculation===&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:DieDionDie.jpg|upright=1.1|thumb|Nobody ever suggests the purple guy got rebuilt. Poor purple guy.]]&lt;br /&gt;
Orion Pax and Ariel were rebuilt into Optimus Prime and Elita One respectively, so for decades many fans speculated that Dion was also rebuilt into a familiar character. However, there are no hints within the episode itself, other than that Dion was Orion&#039;s best friend. Regardless, the fandom loves its patterns, and thus the most popular suggestions are [[Ironhide (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Ironhide]] and [[Ultra Magnus (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Ultra Magnus]]. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Some think the debate is irrelevant, believing Dion most likely died and was inconsequential (the script has Megatron expressly call for their &amp;quot;permanent&amp;quot; deactivation before they are shot), and possibly a casualty that hit close to home in Optimus Prime&#039;s early years as [[Supreme Commander|Autobot leader]]. After all, no specific mention is made of him in the episode after he is shot, but Ariel is mentioned repeatedly. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The reason for this is that writer [[David Wise]] originally intended for both Ariel and Dion to die in order to add some weight to the episode. Upon reading the script for &amp;quot;War Dawn&amp;quot;, colleagues of Wise made the connection between Ariel and Elita One (a character whom David Wise did not know of) as love interest of Orion Pax/Optimus Prime.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;[http://web.archive.org/web/20040806162116/iesb.net/collecting/collecting63004.htm Interview with David Wise]&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; This saved Ariel&#039;s life in the final product, as it was an obvious idea to have her rebuilt into a soldier alongside Orion. Any similar connection for Dion was never made, though the resulting conclusion on his fate in the episode gets into the realm of [[authorial intent]].&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Moonbase2&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[http://moonbase2.libsyn.com/index.php?post_id=553015 Moonbase2 interview with David Wise]&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Other continuities===&lt;br /&gt;
In later years, many unrelated or tangentially related [[Continuity|continuities]] would include nods and references to the [[personal canon|fan theories]] about Dion&#039;s ultimate fate:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*In the [[Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2001 cartoon)|2001 &#039;&#039;Robots in Disguise&#039;&#039;]] episode &amp;quot;[[Ultra Magnus: Forced Fusion!]]&amp;quot;, it&#039;s stated that [[Alpha Trion (RID)|Alpha Trion]] built both [[Optimus Prime (RID)|Optimus Prime]] and [[Ultra Magnus (RID)|Ultra Magnus]], a likely nod to the Generation 1 cartoon.&lt;br /&gt;
*In the [[Dreamwave Productions|Dreamwave]] [[Dreamwave Generation One continuity|comic]] &amp;quot;[[New World Order]]&amp;quot;, Ultra Magnus leads [[Security Team Dion]], another nod.&lt;br /&gt;
*In the [[IDW Publishing|IDW]] [[IDW Generation 1 continuity|comic]] [[Megatron Origin issue 3|&#039;&#039;Megatron Origin&#039;&#039; #3]], a robot that is a hybrid of the &amp;quot;Orion Pax&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;Optronix&amp;quot; designs appears listening to [[Sentinel Prime (G1)|Sentinel Prime]]&#039;s speech at the funeral of [[Bumper (G1)|Bumper]] and [[Fastback (G1)|Fastback]]. Standing with him are Elita One, Alpha Trion, and a white version of himself. This may be a reference to the proposed Orion-Ariel-Dion/Optimus-Elita-Magnus identifications.&lt;br /&gt;
*In the Dreamwave &#039;&#039;[[Transformers: More than Meets the Eye|More than Meets the Eye]]&#039;&#039; reference books it is mentioned in Alpha Trion&#039;s profile that he shares a &amp;quot;special bond&amp;quot; with both Ultra Magnus and Optimus Prime. This is possibly a hint that he rebuilt Ultra Magnus as well, given that his bond with Optimus began when he rebuilt him and as a result, Optimus looked up to him as a father figure.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;However&#039;&#039;, because all of these [[easter egg]]s take place in different continuities from the [[The Transformers (cartoon)|Generation 1 cartoon series]], they are not directly relevant. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:BattleLines6-UltraMagnus.jpg|thumb|upright=1.66|Oof.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Special mention should be made of the &#039;&#039;[[Transformers Timelines (fiction)|Timelines]]&#039;&#039; sub-franchise &#039;&#039;[[Transformers: Wings Universe|Wings Universe]]&#039;&#039;. As the franchise&#039;s storyline occurs in a continuity that is &amp;quot;VERY similar to [[The Transformers (cartoon)|the original G1 toon]], though it is different enough to allow us some leeway in the overall story telling,&amp;quot;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;[http://www.transformersclub.com/members/transforum/msgs.cfm?forum=22&amp;amp;msg=125826 Collectors&#039; Club forum thread]&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; it may have more relevance to the question of Dion&#039;s identity than other continuities. This story at first makes the wild assertion that Dion is... Dion (and definitely not Ironhide). However, in &amp;quot;[[Battle Lines, Part 6]]&amp;quot;, both Dion and another robot, Magnum, are critically wounded, and the story leaves the question of which of the two would be rebuilt by Alpha Trion into Ultra Magnus ambiguous. As a result, the question of &amp;quot;Who is Dion?&amp;quot; becomes instead &amp;quot;Who is Ultra Magnus?&amp;quot; Well played, [[Fun Publications]], well played.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{-}}&lt;br /&gt;
===The official word===&lt;br /&gt;
In &#039;&#039;[[Transformers Animated: The AllSpark Almanac II]]&#039;&#039;, an &amp;quot;[[Ask Vector Prime]]&amp;quot; section dealt with the problem by ducking the question. When asked if Dion was rebuilt into anyone, the enigmatic cosmic entity replied &amp;quot;Which Dion? Celine Dion? I loved &#039;&#039;[[Titanic]]&#039;&#039;.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Twenty-five years after the episode aired, [[Hasbro]] weighed in on the question. When asked point-blank what Dion&#039;s fate was in an [[Hasbro Q&amp;amp;A|online Q&amp;amp;A]] session, their response included the following unequivocal statement: &amp;quot;Dion was never rebuilt into any other character.&amp;quot;&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;tfviews.com&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
: Elite Guard Dion is a redeco of &#039;&#039;[[Henkei! Henkei! Transformers (toyline)|Henkei! Henkei!]]&#039;&#039; [[Hot Shot (Henkei!)|Hot Rod]] (itself a retool of &#039;&#039;[[Transformers: Universe (2008 toyline)|Universe]]&#039;&#039; [[Hot Shot (Armada)/toys#Universe (2008)|Hot Shot]]) in orange and blue, transforming from a sleek Audi TT-like hot rod sports car into a fully poseable robot. He comes with &amp;quot;[[Micromaster]]&amp;quot; [[Cop-Tur (G1)|Cop-Tur]], a redeco of the [[gang-molding|gang-molded]] [[Mini-Con]] [[Jolt (Armada)#Universe (2008)|Jolt]], plus two springloaded flamethrowers. In [[robot mode]], these flamethrowers can be mounted on his forearms or pegged into his fists. In [[alternate mode|vehicle mode]], they plug under the vehicle as dual exhaust pipes. Cop-Tur can plug into the back of Dion&#039;s vehicle mode spoiler or on Dion&#039;s shoulder via his [[Mini-Con]] connection point. &lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
:Dion&#039;s [[bio]] (though not his instructions) also officialized an extra feature originally conceived by fans while playing with the Hot Shot version of the figure: the two chunks of car kibble on his shoulders can be popped off and pegged into the holes in his forearms, creating a pair of &amp;quot;boxing glove&amp;quot;-like fist-weapons. In Dion&#039;s case, the bio identifies these as &amp;quot;duro-lifters&amp;quot; used for his warehouse work.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: Dion was free to all [[Transformers Collectors&#039; Club]] members who joined before the end of [[March 16]]th 2010. He was the first club exclusive freebie to ditch the small Club Membership card in favor of a larger bio card more in line with those that accompany [[BotCon]] exclusives. &lt;br /&gt;

[[File:Transformers design center.jpg|thumb]]&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;Design Center&#039;&#039;&#039; (1984)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Manufactured by [[Arrow]], the Soundwave Design Center was a box in the general shape and likeness of Soundwave which contained various arts and crafts projects for young tykes to entertain themselves with. His head pulled out to reveal a ruler, one arm contains a hilariously dinky and useless pair of &amp;quot;scissors&amp;quot;, his lower legs contained rubbing-transfer panels, and the entire back worked as a sort of pantograph machine - attaching a nib to one end of the large mechanical armature ostensibly allowed you to &#039;remote draw&#039; designs on the included plates.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
:A non-Transforming cassette player in the shape of Soundwave in his robot mode (oh the irony!), made by Hasbro in 1985. It runs on 3 C batteries (not included, of course).&lt;br /&gt;

*&#039;&#039;&#039;Soundwave&#039;&#039;&#039; (1985)&lt;br /&gt;
:One of [[Kabaya]]&#039;s first Transformers [[candy toy]] lines, the &#039;&#039;[[Transformers Milk Caramel]]&#039;&#039; series featured small rubber figures, similar to the later-released [[Decoy]]s, but smaller, flatter and based more on the toys, rather than their animation models. Soundwave was available in numerous different colors.&lt;br /&gt;

**&#039;&#039;Accessories:&#039;&#039; Rocket launcher, rocket&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:A model kit of Soundwave was available as part of Kabaya&#039;s &#039;&#039;[[Transformers Gum]]&#039;&#039; range of figures. Released in the first wave of the series and standing at about four inches tall, he was moulded from red, black and grey plastic and featured stickers for detail. Although armed with only one of his guns and lacking the ability to store it in his battery compartment like the original toy could, he retains his opening chest door. Although &#039;&#039;Transformers Gum&#039;&#039; versions of some of Soundwave&#039;s cassettes would later be released, they proved too large to fit in &#039;&#039;Gum&#039;&#039; Soundwave&#039;s chest; he could, however, accommodate the smaller cassettes released as part of Kabaya&#039;s &#039;&#039;other&#039;&#039; candy toy model kit series, &#039;&#039;[[Transformers Choco]]&#039;&#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:This Soundwave figure was later re-released in 1997 by a Korean company named [[Toon Town]], in a two-pack with the &amp;quot;Transformers Gum&amp;quot; version of [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys|Optimus Prime]].&lt;br /&gt;

*&#039;&#039;&#039;Destron Hero Collection 22&#039;&#039;&#039; (multi-pack, 1985)&lt;br /&gt;
: This small purple rubber figurine of Soundwave was released in Japan as part of a large multi-pack of similar figures, which were used as playing pieces for &#039;&#039;Transformers&#039;&#039; board games. The figure features a number etched into its back which is the sum total of Soundwave&#039;s [[Tech Spec]] ratings, which served some function in the gameplay the figures were used for. A peach-colored version of Soundwave could be found packed in various other multi-packs the following year, and in numerous other colours as part of the blindpacked &#039;&#039;[[Transformers Ramune]]&#039;&#039; line.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
: The Soundwave figurine was later brought over to [[Hasbro]] markets as part of the [[Decoy]] promotion, largely identical to the Japanese release except for the fact that the number on his back was replaced with a simple &amp;quot;checklist&amp;quot; number (36, in Soundwave&#039;s case). Like all Decepticon Decoys, he was a randomly-chosen pack-in available with the carded [[Throttlebot]]s, [[Stunticon (G1)|Stunticons]], [[Combaticon (G1)|Combaticons]], and [[Terrorcon (G1)|Terrorcons]], and was, very early on in the promotion, available in an alternate red coloration that was only packed in with the Throttlebots. Unsurprisingly, this red figurine is much rarer.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
: A three-inch tall [[plastic|PVC]] figurine of Soundwave was available in the third wave of [[TakaraTomy|Takara]]&#039;s &#039;&#039;[[Heroes of Cybertron|Super Collection Figure]]&#039;&#039; line. 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. Additionally, in eight out of every ten cases, the color version of Soundwave came with the right arm of the wave&#039;s collectable [[Fortress Maximus (G1)|Fortress Maximus]] &amp;quot;build-a-figure&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;

:Soundwave&#039;s PVC was recolored into his black &#039;&#039;Headmasters&#039;&#039; incarnation, Soundblaster, for the sixth &#039;&#039;SCF&#039;&#039; wave. This time, the figure was available in a variant metallic silver &amp;quot;pewter&amp;quot; color scheme, at the same ratio of one each per standard case. Pewter Soundblaster came packaged with the right leg of this wave&#039;s [[Grand Maximus]] build-a-figure.&lt;br /&gt;

:The original Soundwave &#039;&#039;SCF&#039;&#039; figure was later released by Hasbro as part of the third wave of the &#039;&#039;[[Heroes of Cybertron]]&#039;&#039; series. Like all figures in the line, this release of Soundwave differed from his &#039;&#039;SCF&#039;&#039; counterpart by being cast entirely in translucent red plastic and then painted over, save for his eyes, allowing for a [[light-piping]] effect. Rather than being blindpacked, Soundwave was sold on an individual blister pack with a profile card included.&lt;br /&gt;

:At only one inch in height, this Soundwave &amp;quot;bottlecap&amp;quot; figurine (so named because its display base is the size of a bottlecap) was one of fourteen blindpacked figures available in Kabaya&#039;s Transformers [[Generation 1 Figure-Collection]]. The figure was rendered in a &amp;quot;retro&amp;quot; black and white color scheme, and came with a leaflet, personalized with cartoon screen captures.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
:Manufactured by [[Arrow]], the Soundwave Design Center was a box in the general shape and likeness of Soundwave which contained various arts and crafts projects for young tykes to entertain themselves with. His head pulled out to reveal a ruler, one arm contains a hilariously dinky and useless pair of &amp;quot;scissors&amp;quot;, his lower legs contained rubbing-transfer panels, and the entire back worked as a sort of pantograph machine - attaching a nib to one end of the large mechanical armature ostensibly allowed you to &#039;remote draw&#039; designs on the included plates.&lt;br /&gt;

:A model kit of Soundwave was available as part of Kabaya&#039;s &#039;&#039;[[Transformers Gum]]&#039;&#039; range of figures. Released in the first wave of the series and standing at about four inches tall, he was moulded from red, black and grey plastic and featured stickers for detail. Although armed with only one of his guns and lacking the ability to store it in his battery compartment like the original toy could, he retains his opening chest door. Although &#039;&#039;Transformers Gum&#039;&#039; versions of some of Soundwave&#039;s cassettes would later be released, they proved too large to fit in &#039;&#039;Gum&#039;&#039; Soundwave&#039;s chest; he could, however, accommodate the smaller cassettes released as part of Kabaya&#039;s &#039;&#039;other&#039;&#039; candy toy model kit series, &#039;&#039;[[Transformers Choco]]&#039;&#039;.&lt;br /&gt;

: This small purple rubber figurine of Soundwave was released in Japan as part of a large multi-pack of similar figures, which were used as playing pieces for &#039;&#039;Transformers&#039;&#039; board games. The figure features a number etched into its back which is the sum total of Soundwave&#039;s [[Tech Spec]] ratings, which served some function in the gameplay the figures were used for. A peach-colored version of Soundwave could be found packed in various other multi-packs the following year, and in numerous other colours as part of the blindpacked &#039;&#039;[[Transformers Ramune]]&#039;&#039; line.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
: The Soundwave figurine was later brought over to [[Hasbro]] markets as part of the [[Decoy]] promotion, largely identical to the Japanese release except for the fact that the number on his back was replaced with a simple &amp;quot;checklist&amp;quot; number (36, in Soundwave&#039;s case). Like all Decepticon Decoys, he was a randomly-chosen pack-in available with the carded [[Throttlebot]]s, [[Stunticon (G1)|Stunticons]], [[Combaticon (G1)|Combaticons]], and [[Terrorcon (G1)|Terrorcons]], and was, very early on in the promotion, available in an alternate red coloration that was only packed in with the Throttlebots. Unsurprisingly, this red figurine is much rarer.&lt;br /&gt;

:The original Soundwave &#039;&#039;SCF&#039;&#039; figure was later released by Hasbro as part of the third wave of the &#039;&#039;[[Heroes of Cybertron]]&#039;&#039; series. Like all figures in the line, this release of Soundwave differed from his &#039;&#039;SCF&#039;&#039; counterpart by being cast entirely in translucent red plastic and then painted over, save for his eyes, allowing for a [[light-piping]] effect. Rather than being blindpacked, Soundwave was sold on an individual blister pack with a profile card included.&lt;br /&gt;

*&#039;&#039;&#039;Transformers: My Busy Book&#039;&#039;&#039; (2017)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Soundwave is represented by a pair of small, non-transforming PVC figurines, one an [[evergreen]]-styled robot and the other an SUV with non-functional wheels.  He (They?) came as part of a set of 12 figurines included with a 10-page board book and a playmat featuring a destroyed city and Cybertron.&lt;br /&gt;

*&#039;&#039;&#039;Design Center&#039;&#039;&#039; (1984)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Manufactured by [[Arrow]], the Soundwave Design Center was a box in the general shape and likeness of Soundwave which contained various arts and crafts projects for young tykes to entertain themselves with. His head pulled out to reveal a ruler, one arm contains a hilariously dinky and useless pair of &amp;quot;scissors&amp;quot;, his lower legs contained rubbing-transfer panels, and the entire back worked as a sort of pantograph machine - attaching a nib to one end of the large mechanical armature ostensibly allowed you to &#039;remote draw&#039; designs on the included plates.&lt;br /&gt;

*&#039;&#039;&#039;Cassette Player&#039;&#039;&#039; (1985)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:A non-Transforming cassette player in the shape of Soundwave in his robot mode (oh the irony!), made by Hasbro in 1985. It runs on 3 C batteries (not included, of course).&lt;br /&gt;

*&#039;&#039;&#039;Soundwave&#039;&#039;&#039; (1985)&lt;br /&gt;
:One of [[Kabaya]]&#039;s first Transformers [[candy toy]] lines, the &#039;&#039;[[Transformers Milk Caramel]]&#039;&#039; series featured small rubber figures, similar to the later-released [[Decoy]]s, but smaller, flatter and based more on the toys, rather than their animation models. Soundwave was available in numerous different colors.&lt;br /&gt;

**&#039;&#039;Accessories:&#039;&#039; Rocket launcher, rocket&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:A model kit of Soundwave was available as part of Kabaya&#039;s &#039;&#039;[[Transformers Gum]]&#039;&#039; range of figures. Released in the first wave of the series and standing at about four inches tall, he was moulded from red, black and grey plastic and featured stickers for detail. Although armed with only one of his guns and lacking the ability to store it in his battery compartment like the original toy could, he retains his opening chest door. Although &#039;&#039;Transformers Gum&#039;&#039; versions of some of Soundwave&#039;s cassettes would later be released, they proved too large to fit in &#039;&#039;Gum&#039;&#039; Soundwave&#039;s chest; he could, however, accommodate the smaller cassettes released as part of Kabaya&#039;s &#039;&#039;other&#039;&#039; candy toy model kit series, &#039;&#039;[[Transformers Choco]]&#039;&#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:This Soundwave figure was later re-released in 1997 by a Korean company named [[Toon Town]], in a two-pack with the &amp;quot;Transformers Gum&amp;quot; version of [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys|Optimus Prime]].&lt;br /&gt;

*&#039;&#039;&#039;Destron Hero Collection 22&#039;&#039;&#039; (multi-pack, 1985)&lt;br /&gt;
: This small purple rubber figurine of Soundwave was released in Japan as part of a large multi-pack of similar figures, which were used as playing pieces for &#039;&#039;Transformers&#039;&#039; board games. The figure features a number etched into its back which is the sum total of Soundwave&#039;s [[Tech Spec]] ratings, which served some function in the gameplay the figures were used for. A peach-colored version of Soundwave could be found packed in various other multi-packs the following year, and in numerous other colours as part of the blindpacked &#039;&#039;[[Transformers Ramune]]&#039;&#039; line.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

**&#039;&#039;Decoy number:&#039;&#039; &#039;&#039;&#039;36&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: The Soundwave figurine was later brought over to [[Hasbro]] markets as part of the [[Decoy]] promotion, largely identical to the Japanese release except for the fact that the number on his back was replaced with a simple &amp;quot;checklist&amp;quot; number (36, in Soundwave&#039;s case). Like all Decepticon Decoys, he was a randomly-chosen pack-in available with the carded [[Throttlebot]]s, [[Stunticon (G1)|Stunticons]], [[Combaticon (G1)|Combaticons]], and [[Terrorcon (G1)|Terrorcons]], and was, very early on in the promotion, available in an alternate red coloration that was only packed in with the Throttlebots. Unsurprisingly, this red figurine is much rarer.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
: A three-inch tall [[plastic|PVC]] figurine of Soundwave was available in the third wave of [[TakaraTomy|Takara]]&#039;s &#039;&#039;[[Heroes of Cybertron|Super Collection Figure]]&#039;&#039; line. 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. Additionally, in eight out of every ten cases, the color version of Soundwave came with the right arm of the wave&#039;s collectable [[Fortress Maximus (G1)|Fortress Maximus]] &amp;quot;build-a-figure&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
:Soundwave&#039;s PVC was recolored into his black &#039;&#039;Headmasters&#039;&#039; incarnation, Soundblaster, for the sixth &#039;&#039;SCF&#039;&#039; wave. This time, the figure was available in a variant metallic silver &amp;quot;pewter&amp;quot; color scheme, at the same ratio of one each per standard case. Pewter Soundblaster came packaged with the right leg of this wave&#039;s [[Grand Maximus]] build-a-figure.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
:The original Soundwave &#039;&#039;SCF&#039;&#039; figure was later released by Hasbro as part of the third wave of the &#039;&#039;[[Heroes of Cybertron]]&#039;&#039; series. Like all figures in the line, this release of Soundwave differed from his &#039;&#039;SCF&#039;&#039; counterpart by being cast entirely in translucent red plastic and then painted over, save for his eyes, allowing for a [[light-piping]] effect. Rather than being blindpacked, Soundwave was sold on an individual blister pack with a profile card included.&lt;br /&gt;

:Manufactured by [[Arrow]], the Soundwave Design Center was a box in the general shape and likeness of Soundwave which contained various arts and crafts projects for young tykes to entertain themselves with. His head pulled out to reveal a ruler, one arm contains a hilariously dinky and useless pair of &amp;quot;scissors&amp;quot;, his lower legs contained rubbing-transfer panels, and the entire back worked as a sort of pantograph machine - attaching a nib to one end of the large mechanical armature ostensibly allowed you to &#039;remote draw&#039; designs on the included plates.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
:A model kit of Soundwave was available as part of Kabaya&#039;s &#039;&#039;[[Transformers Gum]]&#039;&#039; range of figures. Released in the first wave of the series and standing at about four inches tall, he was moulded from red, black and grey plastic and featured stickers for detail. Although armed with only one of his guns and lacking the ability to store it in his battery compartment like the original toy could, he retains his opening chest door. Although &#039;&#039;Transformers Gum&#039;&#039; versions of some of Soundwave&#039;s cassettes would later be released, they proved too large to fit in &#039;&#039;Gum&#039;&#039; Soundwave&#039;s chest; he could, however, accommodate the smaller cassettes released as part of Kabaya&#039;s &#039;&#039;other&#039;&#039; candy toy model kit series, &#039;&#039;[[Transformers Choco]]&#039;&#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:This Soundwave figure was later re-released in 1997 by a Korean company named [[Toon Town]], in a two-pack with the &amp;quot;Transformers Gum&amp;quot; version of [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys|Optimus Prime]].&lt;br /&gt;

*&#039;&#039;&#039;Destron Hero Collection 22&#039;&#039;&#039; (multi-pack, 1985)&lt;br /&gt;
: This small purple rubber figurine of Soundwave was released in Japan as part of a large multi-pack of similar figures, which were used as playing pieces for &#039;&#039;Transformers&#039;&#039; board games. The figure features a number etched into its back which is the sum total of Soundwave&#039;s [[Tech Spec]] ratings, which served some function in the gameplay the figures were used for. A peach-colored version of Soundwave could be found packed in various other multi-packs the following year, and in numerous other colours as part of the blindpacked &#039;&#039;[[Transformers Ramune]]&#039;&#039; line.&lt;br /&gt;

: The Soundwave figurine was later brought over to [[Hasbro]] markets as part of the [[Decoy]] promotion, largely identical to the Japanese release except for the fact that the number on his back was replaced with a simple &amp;quot;checklist&amp;quot; number (36, in Soundwave&#039;s case). Like all Decepticon Decoys, he was a randomly-chosen pack-in available with the carded [[Throttlebot]]s, [[Stunticon (G1)|Stunticons]], [[Combaticon (G1)|Combaticons]], and [[Terrorcon (G1)|Terrorcons]], and was, very early on in the promotion, available in an alternate red coloration that was only packed in with the Throttlebots. Unsurprisingly, this red figurine is much rarer.&lt;br /&gt;

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.

Like all figures in the line, this release of Soundwave differed from his &#039;&#039;SCF&#039;&#039; counterpart by being cast entirely in translucent red plastic and then painted over, save for his eyes, allowing for a [[light-piping]] effect. Rather than being blindpacked, Soundwave was sold on an individual blister pack with a profile card included.&lt;br /&gt;

:Soundwave is represented by a pair of small, non-transforming PVC figurines, one an [[evergreen]]-styled robot and the other an SUV with non-functional wheels.  He (They?) came as part of a set of 12 figurines included with a 10-page board book and a playmat featuring a destroyed city and Cybertron.&lt;br /&gt;
