'''Drift''' is a commando of few words and many ancient blades. While he is not trying to hide his past as a [[Decepticon]], he would much rather just let his swords do the talking. His strength lies in both his mastery over his collection of swords and his composure in battle. Despite the dark times upon the Autobots, Drift remains calm, dignified, and thoughtful,<ref>''Age of Extinction: Generations'' Deluxe Class Autobot Drift packaging bio</ref> often taking time to practice his swordsmanship and spout haikus about whatever's going on.

Leaving the Decepticons didn't automatically fix everything for Drift, as he is still prone to manic bouts of aggression if he's startled or otherwise spooked. This makes him quick to try to stab whatever's the problem to death. Luckily, he’s taken up meditation to complement his swordsmanship and hopefully curb this lingering rage. After all, he considers his Decepticon self to be as dead as [[Megatron (Movie)|Megatron]].

Teaming up with the rowdiest Autobots around may not be the best start, but luckily Drift gets to serve directly under [[Optimus Prime (Movie)|Optimus Prime]], who he refers to as his ''sensei''. Knowing there is hope whenever the Autobot leader is around, Drift will follow Optimus to the bitter end. He doesn't think much of [[Bumblebee (Movie)|Bumblebee]]'s attempts to be Autobot leader, though, due to his youth and lack of warrior discipline. He is sometimes partnered with the [[Dinobot (AOE)|Dinobot]] [[Slug (AOE)|Slug]].

[[File:AOE-DriftHelicopterMode.jpg|thumb|left|280px|Good luck figuring out what kind of helicopter he is.]]
Drift was among the Autobots who had gone into hiding on Earth after humanity turned against the Autobots. To his disgruntlement, Bumblebee took de facto command of the Autobots in the absence of Optimus Prime. Drift was overjoyed at the return of his ''sensei'', declaring there was hope after all. Though [[Hound (Movie)|Hound]] cursed the humans as a "bunch of backstabbing weasels", Drift took pity on the humans, sadly reciting a haiku regarding the humans' betrayal. The haiku didn't sit right with Hound, and the two nearly came to blows before their attention was turned to the arrival of [[Cade Yeager]] and his family. Later that night, Drift sadly reported that they were the last five Autobots, and informed Optimus of Bumblebee's stint as leader during his absence. He couldn't resist expressing his distaste of Bumblebee's leadership and immaturity aloud, claiming that the younger Autobot brought shame upon the group. The two bots quickly came to blows with Drift gaining the upper hand over the "smartass". Holding Bumblebee at sword-point, Drift claimed to see right through Bumblebee's "puppy dog eyes" act, mocking him when such an act was beneath him. The mood soon was dampened further when Cade had Drift (in his Bugatti vehicle mode) project footage of [[Ratchet (Movie)|Ratchet]] and [[Leadfoot (DOTM)|Leadfoot]]'s demises.

[[File:AOE-HoundFightingDrift.jpg|350px|right|thumb|"Drift, you keep up those damn fortune cookie sayings, you'll be ''drifting'' into unconsciousness pretty quick after I get my paws on ya!"]]
Drift took part in Cade's mission to infiltrate [[Kinetic Solutions Incorporated|KSI]], providing some valuable intel to the human prior to the operation. Drift joined in the subsequent assault on the facility when the news came of Ratchet's brutal demise and dismemberment. Drift used his helicopter mode to lift Bumblebee through the upper levels of the building to rescue Cade from [[Harold Attinger]]. The Autobots soon fled once again, and Drift was unable to intervene in the battle between Optimus and [[Megatron (Movie)|Galvatron]] when the drone's missile fire separated the Autobots from their leader. When [[Lockdown (ROTF)|Lockdown]] captured Optimus and [[Tessa Yeager]], Drift infiltrated the bounty hunter's ship in Chicago with the rest of the group. Now behind enemy lines, Drift advocated stealth and a lack of violence, but immediately hacked an alien captive of Lockdown's to death when it startled him. Drift reported that Lockdown's dark matter drives were firing up, signaling they had about ten minutes before the ship departed Earth (nine minutes, worse case scenario). Drift went to free his ''sensei'' with Hound and [[Crosshairs (AOE)|Crosshairs]], and remained aboard the commandeered ship of Lockdown's with him and Hound.

[[Image:AOE-CrosshairsAndDriftLetThemFight.jpg|310px|left|thumb|You've been waiting for months for the DVD to release just to write a "Let them fight" caption for this scene. Admit it.]]
When the Autobots regrouped following the escape from Lockdown's ship, Optimus announced they would be leaving Earth and abandoning humanity to their fate. Drift voiced no opposition to his leader's orders, but intercepted a transmission from [[Joshua Joyce]], informing the team that Joyce was moving KSI's drones to their facilities in China. After Cade warned Joyce of the danger Galvatron presented, Drift assured Cade that their vessel could quickly race them across the globe. It was a spaceship, after all. Optimus edited his orders: while the Autobots would stay to retrieve the [[Seed]] and stop Galvatron, they would leave Earth forever immediately afterwards.

[[Image:AOEDriftVsSentries.jpg|250px|right|thumb|"Why don't you just throw the swor-*dies*"]]
Drift later remained with Optimus and Crosshairs when their ship was shot down by the rogue Galvatron's Decepticons over Hong Kong. Crashing in a nearby valley, Optimus revealed his trump card: the ancient [[Dinobot (AOE)|Dinobots]]. While Optimus beat some authority into [[Grimlock (AOE)|Grimlock]], Drift followed Crosshairs' lead and evacuated to the sidelines to stay out of the crossfire. Though he was baffled by Grimlock's saurian alternate mode, having expected "a giant car", Drift was impressed to see his ''sensei'' take dominance over the Dinobots. Though Crosshairs grumbled about Optimus' dynamic leadership, Drift simply smiled and knew it was innate in their leader. Following Optimus's lead, Drift quickly mounted [[Slug (AOE)|Slug]] and together they fought off many of Galvatron's army in Hong Kong, losing one of his swords in the process while fighting two [[KSI Sentry|KSI Sentries]]. Drift later helped escort the Yeager family and Joyce away from the city, but Lockdown intervened and nearly captured them all. Optimus, Bumblebee, and the Yeagers soon defeated Lockdown, and Drift was assigned by his ''sensei'' to watch over the Yeager family while he left Earth. {{storylink|Transformers: Age of Extinction (film)|Age of Extinction}}

Drift was active on Earth as early as the 1860s,<ref>The left {{w|File:Verbeck picture.jpg|black and white group photo}} that was used and heavily modified was taken in 1867.

[[File:TLKDriftNoFear.jpg|upright=1.33|thumb|Three years have passed... and yet, I do not age.]]
In the years since Optimus left Earth, Drift took refuge at Cade's [[Junkyard (TLK)|scrap yard]] with the other Autobots. He had also taken on a new vehicle mode and updated his color scheme. Despite the stagnant situation, his spare time was spent practicing with his sword and doing meditative balancing feats, which were occasionally upset by the [[Mini Dinobot|Mini-Dinobots]], especially [[Pterry]]. He showed an equal amount of disdain as his comrades when the unscrupulous [[Daytrader]] showed up, even agreeing with Hound's suggestion to frag him. He was then left quite uncomfortable by Daytrader's description of what he intended to do with some hot oil.

Soon, the Decepticons and [[Transformers Reaction Force|TRF]] discovered their refuge and he fled with Bumblebee, Crosshairs, Cade, [[Jimmy (TLK)|Jimmy]], [[Wheelie (ROTF)|Wheelie]], [[Izabella]], and [[Sqweeks]] to a nearby town where a trap had been set up. Upon their arrival, he discovered the TRF tracking device placed on Bumblebee and masterfully disabled it with his sword. During the battle, he and Crosshairs tag teamed the much larger [[Onslaught (ROTF)|Onslaught]], with him cutting off their enemy's leg before swiftly decapitating his "fat head". Drift then took on the remainder of the Decepticons with the others, throwing his sword at his former boss [[Megatron (Movie)|Megatron]] and helping force him, [[Nitro Zeus]], and [[Barricade (Movie)|Barricade]] into a retreat. Afterwards, he and the other Autobots returned to the scrap yard after Cade and Bumblebee left for [[United Kingdom|England]].

[[File:TLKDriftLastScene.jpg|left|upright=1.33|thumb|Yeah, guys, I'm gonna just sit out this movie I guess.]]
Later, when Cybertron had approached Earth and loomed in the sky, the Autobots saw that Daytrader had finally delivered on his promise of a ship, arriving with the same Knight ship Lockdown had used. Drift was quite happy and declared that he would pilot it. He flew the Autobots to Stonehenge where they joined the humans and [[Guardian Knight]]s as the returned Optimus rallied them to defend Earth. En route to Cybertron, he and the other Autobots were unimpressed with the knights, though Drift commented that they were "mean looking". He then cleared his allies for take off and wished them luck as he remained on board to pilot the knight ship. After the final battle was won, he and the other Autobots took the ship and returned home to Cybertron. {{storylink|Transformers: The Last Knight (film)|The Last Knight}}

[[File:Htryd-chapter-3-drift-random-buttons.jpg|upright=1.2|thumb|"Now my cornered friend, let me practice my Dinobot attacks on you"...]]
Drift and [[Slug (AOE)|Slug]] had cornered [[Lockdown (ROTF)|Lockdown]] inside a barn, but alas, Drift had to learn how to attack with his Dinobot steed. Due to a lack of accurate instructions, Drift activated pretty much every button on Slug, activating everything but the weaponry. Some time later, Drift finally struck gold and activated the heavy weaponry... only to be immediately fried, much to his and Slug's disappointment. {{storylink|How to Ride Your Dinobot Chapter 3: How to Fight|How to Fight}}

===Titan movie comics===
[[Image:Knucklehead is knuckledead.jpg|thumb|left|250px|"This guy has been brutally killed but I don't ''think'' it was us this time."]]
Five years before the battle of [[Chicago]],<ref>''Dark of the Moon'' has no explicit date but as Sam has graduated, it's set in 2012 at the earliest</ref> Drift led a three-Con team on [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]] with his friend [[Knucklehead]] and so-not-a-friend [[Lockdown (ROTF)|Lockdown]] as his subordinates. His task was to capture an Autobot stronghold, which—to Knucklehead's glee—he planned to do by storming it, in attempt to minimise bloodshed. Lockdown sneered at him for being soft and advocated bombing the place flat, which Drift pointed out was ''why'' [[Megatron (Movie)|Megatron]] put them in charge: so they'd have something left to rule. The three sneaked up the wall, surprised the Autobot guards, and with martial arts skill they disabled every one without a shot being fired. However, Lockdown tried to execute prisoners and when Drift stopped him, Lockdown gleefully took the opportunity to label Drift a traitor and try to whack him. Knucklehead backed up his friend and the two of them sent Lockdown falling into the fort's molten moat, swearing revenge on them both; Drift knew that he could never take revenge as long as Megatron was in charge. He then let the prisoners retreat with their wounded and was told that he'd make a fine Autobot.

By the time of Chicago, Drift had indeed switched sides and he was annoyed to be cleaning up ''[[Ark (DOTM)|Ark]]'' debris on the Moon instead of tracking down remaining Decepticons. Optimus was bemused that Drift was so eager to fight his former allies. While grousing that the ''Ark'' was their last memories of Cybertron laid waste, the samurai was horrified to find Knucklehead's corpse: recently killed by Lockdown without Megatron to stop him. Drift made a grave for his friend and Prime told him that they'd stand against Lockdown together. {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 5.1|Adrift in Space and Time}}

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

===Toy bios===
Drift’s mastery of combat tactics lets him adapt his alternate form to land or air-based battles. They also enable him maintain total control over his circuits even while under heavy enemy fire. Whereas other Autobots are pushed toward overload, Drift soldiers on with steely tactical precision.<ref>''Age of Extinction: Generations'' Voyager Class Autobot Drift packaging bio</ref>

He transforms into a small car that could resemble a Bugatti Veyron if you've got macular degeneration. He includes a small sword. His nominal Dinobot partner is [[Slug (AOE)#Construct-Bots|Slug]].

: Most of his parts were used to make [[Stinger (AOE)#Construct-Bots|Stinger]]. Like most Construct Bots figures, Drift's rubber ball joints can harden over time, which prevents smooth posing.

* '''Drift with Roughneck''' (Dinobot Warrior, 2014)

: Part of the first wave of Dinobot Warriors, Drift is inspired by the ''[[Transformers: Age of Extinction (film)|Age of Extinction]]'' character, and transforms from robot to car-like thing. Drift includes a large sword as well as his ankylosaurian buddy, [[Roughneck]] who transforms into body armor and a crossbow and arrow pack. The stock photos show his legs missing the armor.

* '''Drift''' (Action Figure, 2014)
**''Pieces:'' '''10'''
**''Accessories'': Longsword, shortsword

: Part of the first wave of ''Transformers [[Hero Mashers]]'' basic Action Figures, Drift is a non-transforming action figure with ratchet-joints, about six inches tall. He has multiple peg-holes all over that can be used to mount any ''Hero Mashers'' accessory. Curiously, his hands are in a sorta-[[Spider-Man]] pose. As a first-wave figure, he has extra ankle articulation that is not present in later waves (a cut that was made to all ''Hero Mashers'' lines, not just the ''Transformers''-branded ones).

: He is designed with a removable head, forearms, thighs, and lower legs, all of which use the same clip-peg/hole joint. This means his pieces can be swapped around in any order, as well as swapped with any other ''Hero Mashers'' figure... which includes figures from [[Marvel Comics]], ''[[Star Wars (franchise)|Star Wars]]'', and ''[[Jurassic Park|Jurassic World]]'', meaning you can make some pretty freaky combinations.

: Interestingly, some of Drift's torso detailing appears to be based directly on the [[Bludgeon (G1)|Generation 1 Bludgeon]] design first seen in ''[[The Transformers: Stormbringer|Stormbringer]]''. A preliminary image of the toy (with some different molding) was shown with [http://news.tfw2005.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2014/01/A8335_1391090853.jpg Bludgeon's colors.]

**''Series'': '''2'''
**''Bag Code'': '''N'''

:Released in the second series of ''The Last Knight'' Tiny Turbo Changers, Drift is made of soft plastic and changes from a tiny robot mode to a small unlicensed approximation of his Mercedes-AMG GT R mode from the 5th live-action film, though he's cast in all red plastic so his car mode is red and not black like in the movie. His wheels are molded in place and cannot roll and hands can accommodate 3mm post weapons.

:Released as part of the third wave of Turbo Changers, this Drift is an all-new mold, whose transformation scheme consists of flipping the center of the rear of the vehicle to convert into robot mode. He is also a shellformer due to his transformation scheme.

:''Allspark Tech'' Drift transforms from a ''Rescue Bots''-styled robot into a car that somewhat resembles a Mercedes-AMG GT R and back. His chest also features a cavity for the electronic Allspark Cube, which gives him different sound effects for his robot and vehicle modes.

*'''Autobot Drift''' (Legion Class, 2017)

:Originally a solicited-but-cancelled toy leaked in 2014, Drift ''finally'' gets his own Legion Class figure. He transforms from a pocket-sized robot into a small unlicensed approximation of a 2017 Mercedes-AMG GT R. He also features 3mm compatible holes on his pair of hands and his vehicle roof (although loose).

:Due to loose connections on the tab, his front vehicle bumper tab is easily undone with a press of a finger. Otherwise, his pair of legs is fairly well articulated, although it was used for transformation. However, he has some slight issues on standing up if his legs are not properly adjusted or straightened.

**''Accessories:'' Two daggers, two swords

:''[[Transformers: The Last Knight (toyline)|The Last Knight]] Premier Edition'' Drift is a redeco and ''heavy'' retool of the first Deluxe Class toy with new external car panels and the torso/head with some parts reused from the original Deluxe Class toy, and he transforms from robot into a 2017 Mercedes-AMG GT R. The figure itself is turned upside down within the vehicle shell, as the front of the car now forms the feet/legs, while the back end now forms his robot chest. This also comes at the cost of him having a ''faux'' chest.

:In Asia, Drift and the rest of the Wave 2 Deluxes (though limited in numbers) were later sold at Popular Book stores in Malaysia, at a discounted price of RM89.90 ($21), though the price was later cut down to RM69.90 ($16) as part of the "Must Buy!" offers.

:He also comes with completely new molded swords (but no daggers), which can be attached to his main propellor rotor assembly to form helicopter blades in vehicle mode, or on his hips on either side in robot mode. The main rotor assembly folds up to resemble his (unremovable) back-mounted daggers in robot mode. Lastly, he also comes with a cardboard backdrop display depicting the Autobot meetup in ''Age of Extinction''.

**''Series'': '''Double Siders'''
**''Number'': ?

:''[[Robot Powered Machines]]'' Mini-Vehicle Autobot Drift is a small, non-transforming, [[die-cast]] car based on [[Drift (G1)|his mainstream counterpart]]'s vehicle mode. His robot mode is sculpted underneath the vehicle, and his wheels use through-axle construction that lets the toy zip around at high speeds on smooth surfaces. Thanks to his oversized tires, he can slide along rightside-up or upside-down.

:The intended ''RPM'' release of "Double Siders" Drift never came out. Though it was going to be recycled into ''Speed Stars'', the ''RPM'' version had more paint operations, including having his name printed on his hood and bumper. The only image of the toy comes from a downloadable poster that was on the official ''Transformers'' website of Turkey.

: This mold was also used to make ''Speed Stars'' [[Brakedown (ROTF)|Breakdown]].

:"Allspark" Drift was presumably a redeco of "Double Siders" Drift. Though listed on the back of the Asian market release of ''RPM'' "Allspark" [[Starscream (Movie)|Starscream]], it has never officially been depicted. However, an otherwise unknown redeco of the Drift mold with blue detailing was displayed at [[Toy Fair 2010]], amongst a mix of cancelled ''RPM'' and planned ''Speed Stars'' vehicles. It is possible that this mystery redeco was the aborted "Allspark" Drift.

==Notes==
* Not counting [[Mixmaster (ROTF)|Mixmaster]]'s battle mode, Drift is the first [[Triple Changer]] seen on-screen in the live action films, transforming from a helicopter to a sports car at will. Sadly, the complexity the movie aesthetic gives him means that none of his toys have three modes. Drift is only seen transforming into his new Mercedes alternate mode in ''The Last Knight'', leaving it unknown if he still possesses a third mode.
* While the original [[Drift (G1)|Drift]] and other incarnations of the character have had Japanese motifs, this Drift's appearance is heavily based upon that of a samurai.
*In ''Rise of the Dark Spark'', Drift's alternate mode appears to be comically large – the sports car is of comparable size to ''tanks'' found in the environment!
* Drift also holds the distinction of being the only new character in ''Age of Extinction'' besides the Dinobots to not be called by name, though briefly during the scene where Galvatron chases the Autobots, he is identified on KSI's satellite feed. ''The Last Knight'' later properly identified him on-screen.
* Drift, along with Hound, sports one of the most drastic changes to an ''Age of Extinction'' Autobot, switching the Bugatti Veyron for a Mercedes AMG GT R in ''The Last Knight''.
* His Mercedes alt-mode reflects his original planned color for ''Age of Extinction''.
** Before ''The Last Knight'' was released, people noticed that Drift's mostly black vehicle mode somehow turned into a predominantly red robot mode, to the point where black vehicle parts became red kibble. This seems to have been addressed in the film proper, but the toys kept this oddity.
* Drift was the only new ''Age of Extinction'' Autobot to have an on-screen transformation in his debut film, though he only appeared in helicopter mode whenever he does.
*In a surprising attention to detail and continuity, after throwing one of his swords at a drone in the fourth film, Drift is still missing the blade at the conclusion of ''Age of Extinction'' and ''The Last Knight''.
