The final act of the "[[Unicron Trilogy continuity family|Unicron Trilogy]]", '''''Transformers: Cybertron''''' vastly expanded the scope of the ''Transformers'' universe, bringing in the theme of "[[Cybertronian colonies|lost colonies]]" with different styles, while still unifying the toyline under a central play-[[gimmick]], the [[Cyber Planet Key]]s.

==Overview==
[[File:Cyb-toy Override.jpg|upright=1.67|thumb|Deluxe Class Override]]
After ''[[Transformers: Energon (toyline)|Energon]]''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s rather muddled [[gimmick]]/theme presentation, Hasbro dialed it back for ''Cybertron'' by sticking with a single unifying play gimmick: the [[Cyber Key]]s. These large discs, with designs based on the planet of their origin, unlocked pop-out weapons and action features in each toy once plugged into the key slot. Any planet's key would work with any toy. With the spring-loaded gimmicks less complex than those in ''[[Transformers: Armada (toyline)|Armada]]'', they freed up the designs to allow for more robot-mode posability.

Where ''Cybertron'' gets its diversity is in its aesthetics, through the different planets each Transformer could hail from. Each planet has its own theme, with the toy designs reflecting the culture of each world.

:*'''[[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]]''' and '''[[Earth]]''' toys are the most traditional of the series, with future-tech-vehicle and close-to-real-life vehicles respectively, and more "traditional" proportions and detailing.
:*The '''[[Velocitron|Speed Planet]]''' toys are naturally all about the fastness. The vehicle modes are futuristic and fantastical, with transparent plastic tires and other accents. Even the bulkier vehicle modes at least look like they were built for raw horsepower. Colors are bright and clashing, the robot modes themselves streamlined. The Cyber Key gimmicks are typically tied to their swing-out blaster weapons.
:*The brutal '''[[Jungle Planet (colony)|Jungle Planet]]''' is full of robotic beasts, with deeply-complex, nigh-organic sculpting that brings to mind the [[Transmetal|Transmetal IIs]] of ''[[Beast Wars: Transformers (toyline)|Beast Wars]]'' or the [[technorganic]] ''[[Beast Machines: Transformers (toyline)|Beast Machines]]'' [[Maximal]] toys. Robot modes feature limbs made from beast-bits, clawed hands, and fanged mouths. Melee weapons rule the land, with most Cyber Key gimmicks focused on pop-out blades.
:*The '''[[Gigantion|Giant Planet]]''' is about heavy machinery. ''Very'' heavy machinery. Though few in number compared to the rest of the planets, they live up to their planet's name by being some of the largest toys in the line. These heavy construction (or ''de''struction) vehicles are bulky and industrial, plus each one has a tiny [[Mini-Con]] partner to operate a work station somewhere on each bot's vehicle or robot mode.
:*'''[[Planet X (Cybertron)|Planet X]]''' bots are similarly few in number. Their only real unifying style is "futuristic danger". The vehicle modes are sleek and deadly-looking, robot modes vicious and pointy.

The tail-end of the line was again heavy on the [[redeco]]es (by then a practice that had become expected and largely accepted), but also brought micro-play back into the line. Mini-Con two-packs were released to bolster the ranks of the still-popular Mini-Con class. But the history-making addition to the ''Transformers'' franchise was in the [[Legends Class (2005)|Legends Class]] toys. These sub-Scout, simple and above all ''inexpensive'' toys were based on the larger toys of popular/major characters, giving kids the chance to own an Optimus Prime or Megatron they could keep in their pocket. From this point on, Legends-sized toys would continue on in some manner through every major ''Transformers'' toyline.

The ''Cybertron'' toyline was one of the first lines to create an ''almost'' perfect representation of robot mode [[scale]] between figures within the line. The previous two toylines in the [[Unicron Trilogy continuity family|Unicron Trilogy]] had almost achieved similar results but a lot of the time characters in the cartoons would either be drawn or have their CG models resized into [[Tidal Wave (Armada)|exaggerated proportions]], creating a huge difference between the figures in-hand and the characters presented on-screen. It's likely feasible that the ''[[Transformers: Cybertron (cartoon)|Cybertron]]'' cartoon copied the toyline's scale between characters rather than the other way around. This is further evident as a lot of the vehicles in the toyline are out of [[Hot Shot (Armada)/toys#Cybertron|scale]] [[Scattorshot (Cybertron)#Toys|with]] [[Mudflap (Cybertron)#Toys|one]] [[Lugnutz#Toys|another]], however the show ''usually'' fixed this issue by resizing vehicle animation models to fit a realistic scale. While most of the toyline scale is consistent with what is on-screen, the Giant Planet Natives and [[Primus]] are the main exceptions to this, as they were greatly exaggerated in size on-screen to further support the "giant" aspect of their race, and Primus is... well... obviously a [[Cybertron (planet)|planet]]. Supreme Class [[Starscream (Armada)/toys#Cybertron|Starscream]] can also be displayed with other figures in the line to create a fairly well-scaled representation of the [[Starscream (episode)|episode which inspired the toy]] or next to fellow Supreme Class figure, Primus, to imitate [[Titans|another scene]], much like ''Energon''{{'}}s [[Omega Supreme (Energon)#Toys|Omega]]/[[Optimus Prime (Armada)/toys#Cybertron|Optimus Supreme]] and [[Unicron]].

==Hasbro ''Cybertron'' toyline==
For Hasbro's line, every Cyber Key (packaged with every toy Scout Class or larger) has a short alphanumeric code printed on its back. These [[Cyber Key Codes]], when plugged into the official ''Cybertron'' website (now defunct), unlocked design sketches and extra biographical info on each toy.

===General retail===
====Mini-Con Class====
Though we're listing these first as part of our standard "go up in size class" organization, it should be noted that these releases came out in the back half of the ''Cybertron'' line, with the fourth (and ultimately final) wave suffering from "[[tail-ender]] syndrome" as the line shut down.

==Hasbro European market-only releases==
{{anchor|Europe}}
As with ''[[Transformers: Energon (toyline)|Energon]]'' before it, the European ''Cybertron'' line was mostly just the US line outlined above. However, two sets of [[Micromaster]] [[combiner]] teams that were released as part of the [[Transformers: Universe (2003 toyline)|2003 ''Universe'' toy line]] (which was never officially distributed as such in Europe) in the US, exclusive to [[KB Toys]], got released under the ''Cybertron'' banner, using a different assortment number (29514) than their own ''Universe'' counterparts as well as the earlier ''Energon''/''Universe'' figures (all of which were released under the assortment number 29460).

==Takara ''Galaxy Force'' toyline==
[[File:TF-Galaxy-Force-Logo.png|left|300px]]
Premiering roughly half a year before ''Cybertron'' (as Hasbro's lines tended to run approximately 18 months while Takara stuck with 12 months), ''Galaxy Force'' would mostly feature slight alterations from the Hasbro versions. Some of the additions to the line, like the ''[[Transformers: Armada (toyline)|Armada]]'' retools (sold in Vs packs in Japan) would eventually make their way to the States.

Store-promo [[Mini-Con]] giveaways returned in a big way, with full teams devoted to some of the major characters in the line.

Presumably due to lackluster sales, the line ended even earlier than its projected twelve-month run, after only ''nine'' months. Several characters and redecos that appeared on the show were either never released in Japan at all, or were given a limited production run and/or only made available as exclusives: First, "Dark Ligerjack" (aka Nemesis Breaker), despite being initially assigned the ID number GD-14, was relegated to a Toys"R"Us Japan exclusive; then "Master Megatron" was given a "limited edition" release; the "Dark Crumplezone" redeco of "Landbullet" (named "Armbullet" in the anime), despite being initially assigned the ID number GD-15, was never officially released in Japan at all; Primus was released in an unaltered Hasbro deco (complete with a [[tampograph]]ed [[Cyber Key Codes|Cyber Key code]] that was only relevant for the Hasbro release) in special retro packaging marketed as part of the [[Fight! Super Robot Lifeform Transformers (toyline)|''Fight! Super Robot Lifeform Transformers'' toy line]]; and "Blendar" (Quickmix) and "Moledive" (Menasor) were only released as [[e-HOBBY]] exclusive "[[USA Edition]]s", also in unaltered Hasbro decos in Hasbro packaging with additional stickers on the packaging, more than a year after the ''Galaxy Force'' line had run its course at retail.

==Notes==
* Fun fact: a large majority of figures in the ''Cybertron'' toyline have to have their heads rotated 180° degrees for transformation; whether it be absolutely necessary for clearance/design intent, or for cosmetic reasons (e.g. [[Thundercracker (Armada)#Cybertron|Thundercracker]], whose face gets exposed in vehicle mode whenever his [[Cyber Key]] [[gimmick]] is activated). Since the [[character model|cartoon models]] were heavily based on the toys, this would also be frequently shown in the [[stock footage]] transformation sequences.

The final act of the "[[Unicron Trilogy continuity family|Unicron Trilogy]]", '''''Transformers: Cybertron''''' vastly expanded the scope of the ''Transformers'' universe, bringing in the theme of "[[Cybertronian colonies|lost colonies]]" with different styles, while still unifying the toyline under a central play-[[gimmick]], the [[Cyber Planet Key]]s.

==Overview==
[[File:Cyb-toy Override.jpg|upright=1.67|thumb|Deluxe Class Override]]
After ''[[Transformers: Energon (toyline)|Energon]]''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s rather muddled [[gimmick]]/theme presentation, Hasbro dialed it back for ''Cybertron'' by sticking with a single unifying play gimmick: the [[Cyber Key]]s. These large discs, with designs based on the planet of their origin, unlocked pop-out weapons and action features in each toy once plugged into the key slot. Any planet's key would work with any toy. With the spring-loaded gimmicks less complex than those in ''[[Transformers: Armada (toyline)|Armada]]'', they freed up the designs to allow for more robot-mode posability.

Where ''Cybertron'' gets its diversity is in its aesthetics, through the different planets each Transformer could hail from. Each planet has its own theme, with the toy designs reflecting the culture of each world.

:*'''[[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]]''' and '''[[Earth]]''' toys are the most traditional of the series, with future-tech-vehicle and close-to-real-life vehicles respectively, and more "traditional" proportions and detailing.
:*The '''[[Velocitron|Speed Planet]]''' toys are naturally all about the fastness. The vehicle modes are futuristic and fantastical, with transparent plastic tires and other accents. Even the bulkier vehicle modes at least look like they were built for raw horsepower. Colors are bright and clashing, the robot modes themselves streamlined. The Cyber Key gimmicks are typically tied to their swing-out blaster weapons.
:*The brutal '''[[Jungle Planet (colony)|Jungle Planet]]''' is full of robotic beasts, with deeply-complex, nigh-organic sculpting that brings to mind the [[Transmetal|Transmetal IIs]] of ''[[Beast Wars: Transformers (toyline)|Beast Wars]]'' or the [[technorganic]] ''[[Beast Machines: Transformers (toyline)|Beast Machines]]'' [[Maximal]] toys. Robot modes feature limbs made from beast-bits, clawed hands, and fanged mouths. Melee weapons rule the land, with most Cyber Key gimmicks focused on pop-out blades.
:*The '''[[Gigantion|Giant Planet]]''' is about heavy machinery. ''Very'' heavy machinery. Though few in number compared to the rest of the planets, they live up to their planet's name by being some of the largest toys in the line. These heavy construction (or ''de''struction) vehicles are bulky and industrial, plus each one has a tiny [[Mini-Con]] partner to operate a work station somewhere on each bot's vehicle or robot mode.
:*'''[[Planet X (Cybertron)|Planet X]]''' bots are similarly few in number. Their only real unifying style is "futuristic danger". The vehicle modes are sleek and deadly-looking, robot modes vicious and pointy.

The tail-end of the line was again heavy on the [[redeco]]es (by then a practice that had become expected and largely accepted), but also brought micro-play back into the line. Mini-Con two-packs were released to bolster the ranks of the still-popular Mini-Con class. But the history-making addition to the ''Transformers'' franchise was in the [[Legends Class (2005)|Legends Class]] toys. These sub-Scout, simple and above all ''inexpensive'' toys were based on the larger toys of popular/major characters, giving kids the chance to own an Optimus Prime or Megatron they could keep in their pocket. From this point on, Legends-sized toys would continue on in some manner through every major ''Transformers'' toyline.

The ''Cybertron'' toyline was one of the first lines to create an ''almost'' perfect representation of robot mode [[scale]] between figures within the line. The previous two toylines in the [[Unicron Trilogy continuity family|Unicron Trilogy]] had almost achieved similar results but a lot of the time characters in the cartoons would either be drawn or have their CG models resized into [[Tidal Wave (Armada)|exaggerated proportions]], creating a huge difference between the figures in-hand and the characters presented on-screen. It's likely feasible that the ''[[Transformers: Cybertron (cartoon)|Cybertron]]'' cartoon copied the toyline's scale between characters rather than the other way around. This is further evident as a lot of the vehicles in the toyline are out of [[Hot Shot (Armada)/toys#Cybertron|scale]] [[Scattorshot (Cybertron)#Toys|with]] [[Mudflap (Cybertron)#Toys|one]] [[Lugnutz#Toys|another]], however the show ''usually'' fixed this issue by resizing vehicle animation models to fit a realistic scale. While most of the toyline scale is consistent with what is on-screen, the Giant Planet Natives and [[Primus]] are the main exceptions to this, as they were greatly exaggerated in size on-screen to further support the "giant" aspect of their race, and Primus is... well... obviously a [[Cybertron (planet)|planet]]. Supreme Class [[Starscream (Armada)/toys#Cybertron|Starscream]] can also be displayed with other figures in the line to create a fairly well-scaled representation of the [[Starscream (episode)|episode which inspired the toy]] or next to fellow Supreme Class figure, Primus, to imitate [[Titans|another scene]], much like ''Energon''{{'}}s [[Omega Supreme (Energon)#Toys|Omega]]/[[Optimus Prime (Armada)/toys#Cybertron|Optimus Supreme]] and [[Unicron]].

==Hasbro ''Cybertron'' toyline==
For Hasbro's line, every Cyber Key (packaged with every toy Scout Class or larger) has a short alphanumeric code printed on its back. These [[Cyber Key Codes]], when plugged into the official ''Cybertron'' website (now defunct), unlocked design sketches and extra biographical info on each toy.

====Mini-Con Class====
Though we're listing these first as part of our standard "go up in size class" organization, it should be noted that these releases came out in the back half of the ''Cybertron'' line, with the fourth (and ultimately final) wave suffering from "[[tail-ender]] syndrome" as the line shut down.

==Hasbro European market-only releases==
{{anchor|Europe}}
As with ''[[Transformers: Energon (toyline)|Energon]]'' before it, the European ''Cybertron'' line was mostly just the US line outlined above. However, two sets of [[Micromaster]] [[combiner]] teams that were released as part of the [[Transformers: Universe (2003 toyline)|2003 ''Universe'' toy line]] (which was never officially distributed as such in Europe) in the US, exclusive to [[KB Toys]], got released under the ''Cybertron'' banner, using a different assortment number (29514) than their own ''Universe'' counterparts as well as the earlier ''Energon''/''Universe'' figures (all of which were released under the assortment number 29460).

==Takara ''Galaxy Force'' toyline==
[[File:TF-Galaxy-Force-Logo.png|left|300px]]
Premiering roughly half a year before ''Cybertron'' (as Hasbro's lines tended to run approximately 18 months while Takara stuck with 12 months), ''Galaxy Force'' would mostly feature slight alterations from the Hasbro versions. Some of the additions to the line, like the ''[[Transformers: Armada (toyline)|Armada]]'' retools (sold in Vs packs in Japan) would eventually make their way to the States.

Store-promo [[Mini-Con]] giveaways returned in a big way, with full teams devoted to some of the major characters in the line.

Presumably due to lackluster sales, the line ended even earlier than its projected twelve-month run, after only ''nine'' months. Several characters and redecos that appeared on the show were either never released in Japan at all, or were given a limited production run and/or only made available as exclusives: First, "Dark Ligerjack" (aka Nemesis Breaker), despite being initially assigned the ID number GD-14, was relegated to a Toys"R"Us Japan exclusive; then "Master Megatron" was given a "limited edition" release; the "Dark Crumplezone" redeco of "Landbullet" (named "Armbullet" in the anime), despite being initially assigned the ID number GD-15, was never officially released in Japan at all; Primus was released in an unaltered Hasbro deco (complete with a [[tampograph]]ed [[Cyber Key Codes|Cyber Key code]] that was only relevant for the Hasbro release) in special retro packaging marketed as part of the [[Fight! Super Robot Lifeform Transformers (toyline)|''Fight! Super Robot Lifeform Transformers'' toy line]]; and "Blendar" (Quickmix) and "Moledive" (Menasor) were only released as [[e-HOBBY]] exclusive "[[USA Edition]]s", also in unaltered Hasbro decos in Hasbro packaging with additional stickers on the packaging, more than a year after the ''Galaxy Force'' line had run its course at retail.

==Notes==
* Fun fact: a large majority of figures in the ''Cybertron'' toyline have to have their heads rotated 180° degrees for transformation; whether it be absolutely necessary for clearance/design intent, or for cosmetic reasons (e.g. [[Thundercracker (Armada)#Cybertron|Thundercracker]], whose face gets exposed in vehicle mode whenever his [[Cyber Key]] [[gimmick]] is activated). Since the [[character model|cartoon models]] were heavily based on the toys, this would also be frequently shown in the [[stock footage]] transformation sequences.

The final act of the "[[Unicron Trilogy continuity family|Unicron Trilogy]]", '''''Transformers: Cybertron''''' vastly expanded the scope of the ''Transformers'' universe, bringing in the theme of "[[Cybertronian colonies|lost colonies]]" with different styles, while still unifying the toyline under a central play-[[gimmick]], the [[Cyber Planet Key]]s.

After ''[[Transformers: Energon (toyline)|Energon]]''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s rather muddled [[gimmick]]/theme presentation, Hasbro dialed it back for ''Cybertron'' by sticking with a single unifying play gimmick: the [[Cyber Key]]s. These large discs, with designs based on the planet of their origin, unlocked pop-out weapons and action features in each toy once plugged into the key slot. Any planet's key would work with any toy. With the spring-loaded gimmicks less complex than those in ''[[Transformers: Armada (toyline)|Armada]]'', they freed up the designs to allow for more robot-mode posability.

Where ''Cybertron'' gets its diversity is in its aesthetics, through the different planets each Transformer could hail from. Each planet has its own theme, with the toy designs reflecting the culture of each world.

:*'''[[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]]''' and '''[[Earth]]''' toys are the most traditional of the series, with future-tech-vehicle and close-to-real-life vehicles respectively, and more "traditional" proportions and detailing.
:*The '''[[Velocitron|Speed Planet]]''' toys are naturally all about the fastness. The vehicle modes are futuristic and fantastical, with transparent plastic tires and other accents. Even the bulkier vehicle modes at least look like they were built for raw horsepower. Colors are bright and clashing, the robot modes themselves streamlined. The Cyber Key gimmicks are typically tied to their swing-out blaster weapons.
:*The brutal '''[[Jungle Planet (colony)|Jungle Planet]]''' is full of robotic beasts, with deeply-complex, nigh-organic sculpting that brings to mind the [[Transmetal|Transmetal IIs]] of ''[[Beast Wars: Transformers (toyline)|Beast Wars]]'' or the [[technorganic]] ''[[Beast Machines: Transformers (toyline)|Beast Machines]]'' [[Maximal]] toys. Robot modes feature limbs made from beast-bits, clawed hands, and fanged mouths. Melee weapons rule the land, with most Cyber Key gimmicks focused on pop-out blades.
:*The '''[[Gigantion|Giant Planet]]''' is about heavy machinery. ''Very'' heavy machinery. Though few in number compared to the rest of the planets, they live up to their planet's name by being some of the largest toys in the line. These heavy construction (or ''de''struction) vehicles are bulky and industrial, plus each one has a tiny [[Mini-Con]] partner to operate a work station somewhere on each bot's vehicle or robot mode.
:*'''[[Planet X (Cybertron)|Planet X]]''' bots are similarly few in number. Their only real unifying style is "futuristic danger". The vehicle modes are sleek and deadly-looking, robot modes vicious and pointy.

The tail-end of the line was again heavy on the [[redeco]]es (by then a practice that had become expected and largely accepted), but also brought micro-play back into the line. Mini-Con two-packs were released to bolster the ranks of the still-popular Mini-Con class. But the history-making addition to the ''Transformers'' franchise was in the [[Legends Class (2005)|Legends Class]] toys. These sub-Scout, simple and above all ''inexpensive'' toys were based on the larger toys of popular/major characters, giving kids the chance to own an Optimus Prime or Megatron they could keep in their pocket. From this point on, Legends-sized toys would continue on in some manner through every major ''Transformers'' toyline.

The ''Cybertron'' toyline was one of the first lines to create an ''almost'' perfect representation of robot mode [[scale]] between figures within the line. The previous two toylines in the [[Unicron Trilogy continuity family|Unicron Trilogy]] had almost achieved similar results but a lot of the time characters in the cartoons would either be drawn or have their CG models resized into [[Tidal Wave (Armada)|exaggerated proportions]], creating a huge difference between the figures in-hand and the characters presented on-screen. It's likely feasible that the ''[[Transformers: Cybertron (cartoon)|Cybertron]]'' cartoon copied the toyline's scale between characters rather than the other way around. This is further evident as a lot of the vehicles in the toyline are out of [[Hot Shot (Armada)/toys#Cybertron|scale]] [[Scattorshot (Cybertron)#Toys|with]] [[Mudflap (Cybertron)#Toys|one]] [[Lugnutz#Toys|another]], however the show ''usually'' fixed this issue by resizing vehicle animation models to fit a realistic scale. While most of the toyline scale is consistent with what is on-screen, the Giant Planet Natives and [[Primus]] are the main exceptions to this, as they were greatly exaggerated in size on-screen to further support the "giant" aspect of their race, and Primus is... well... obviously a [[Cybertron (planet)|planet]]. Supreme Class [[Starscream (Armada)/toys#Cybertron|Starscream]] can also be displayed with other figures in the line to create a fairly well-scaled representation of the [[Starscream (episode)|episode which inspired the toy]] or next to fellow Supreme Class figure, Primus, to imitate [[Titans|another scene]], much like ''Energon''{{'}}s [[Omega Supreme (Energon)#Toys|Omega]]/[[Optimus Prime (Armada)/toys#Cybertron|Optimus Supreme]] and [[Unicron]].

==Hasbro ''Cybertron'' toyline==
For Hasbro's line, every Cyber Key (packaged with every toy Scout Class or larger) has a short alphanumeric code printed on its back. These [[Cyber Key Codes]], when plugged into the official ''Cybertron'' website (now defunct), unlocked design sketches and extra biographical info on each toy.

====Mini-Con Class====
Though we're listing these first as part of our standard "go up in size class" organization, it should be noted that these releases came out in the back half of the ''Cybertron'' line, with the fourth (and ultimately final) wave suffering from "[[tail-ender]] syndrome" as the line shut down.

==Hasbro European market-only releases==
{{anchor|Europe}}
As with ''[[Transformers: Energon (toyline)|Energon]]'' before it, the European ''Cybertron'' line was mostly just the US line outlined above. However, two sets of [[Micromaster]] [[combiner]] teams that were released as part of the [[Transformers: Universe (2003 toyline)|2003 ''Universe'' toy line]] (which was never officially distributed as such in Europe) in the US, exclusive to [[KB Toys]], got released under the ''Cybertron'' banner, using a different assortment number (29514) than their own ''Universe'' counterparts as well as the earlier ''Energon''/''Universe'' figures (all of which were released under the assortment number 29460).

==Takara ''Galaxy Force'' toyline==
[[File:TF-Galaxy-Force-Logo.png|left|300px]]
Premiering roughly half a year before ''Cybertron'' (as Hasbro's lines tended to run approximately 18 months while Takara stuck with 12 months), ''Galaxy Force'' would mostly feature slight alterations from the Hasbro versions. Some of the additions to the line, like the ''[[Transformers: Armada (toyline)|Armada]]'' retools (sold in Vs packs in Japan) would eventually make their way to the States.

Store-promo [[Mini-Con]] giveaways returned in a big way, with full teams devoted to some of the major characters in the line.

Presumably due to lackluster sales, the line ended even earlier than its projected twelve-month run, after only ''nine'' months. Several characters and redecos that appeared on the show were either never released in Japan at all, or were given a limited production run and/or only made available as exclusives: First, "Dark Ligerjack" (aka Nemesis Breaker), despite being initially assigned the ID number GD-14, was relegated to a Toys"R"Us Japan exclusive; then "Master Megatron" was given a "limited edition" release; the "Dark Crumplezone" redeco of "Landbullet" (named "Armbullet" in the anime), despite being initially assigned the ID number GD-15, was never officially released in Japan at all; Primus was released in an unaltered Hasbro deco (complete with a [[tampograph]]ed [[Cyber Key Codes|Cyber Key code]] that was only relevant for the Hasbro release) in special retro packaging marketed as part of the [[Fight! Super Robot Lifeform Transformers (toyline)|''Fight! Super Robot Lifeform Transformers'' toy line]]; and "Blendar" (Quickmix) and "Moledive" (Menasor) were only released as [[e-HOBBY]] exclusive "[[USA Edition]]s", also in unaltered Hasbro decos in Hasbro packaging with additional stickers on the packaging, more than a year after the ''Galaxy Force'' line had run its course at retail.

==Notes==
* Fun fact: a large majority of figures in the ''Cybertron'' toyline have to have their heads rotated 180° degrees for transformation; whether it be absolutely necessary for clearance/design intent, or for cosmetic reasons (e.g. [[Thundercracker (Armada)#Cybertron|Thundercracker]], whose face gets exposed in vehicle mode whenever his [[Cyber Key]] [[gimmick]] is activated). Since the [[character model|cartoon models]] were heavily based on the toys, this would also be frequently shown in the [[stock footage]] transformation sequences.

Transformers: Cybertron (toyline)

The final act of the "[[Unicron Trilogy continuity family|Unicron Trilogy]]", '''''Transformers: Cybertron''''' vastly expanded the scope of the ''Transformers'' universe, bringing in the theme of "[[Cybertronian colonies|lost colonies]]" with different styles, while still unifying the toyline under a central play-[[gimmick]], the [[Cyber Planet Key]]s.

{{TOCclear}}

==Overview==
[[File:Cyb-toy Override.jpg|upright=1.67|thumb|Deluxe Class Override]]
After ''[[Transformers: Energon (toyline)|Energon]]''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s rather muddled [[gimmick]]/theme presentation, Hasbro dialed it back for ''Cybertron'' by sticking with a single unifying play gimmick: the [[Cyber Key]]s. These large discs, with designs based on the planet of their origin, unlocked pop-out weapons and action features in each toy once plugged into the key slot. Any planet's key would work with any toy. With the spring-loaded gimmicks less complex than those in ''[[Transformers: Armada (toyline)|Armada]]'', they freed up the designs to allow for more robot-mode posability.

Where ''Cybertron'' gets its diversity is in its aesthetics, through the different planets each Transformer could hail from. Each planet has its own theme, with the toy designs reflecting the culture of each world.

:*'''[[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]]''' and '''[[Earth]]''' toys are the most traditional of the series, with future-tech-vehicle and close-to-real-life vehicles respectively, and more "traditional" proportions and detailing.
:*The '''[[Velocitron|Speed Planet]]''' toys are naturally all about the fastness. The vehicle modes are futuristic and fantastical, with transparent plastic tires and other accents. Even the bulkier vehicle modes at least look like they were built for raw horsepower. Colors are bright and clashing, the robot modes themselves streamlined. The Cyber Key gimmicks are typically tied to their swing-out blaster weapons.
:*The brutal '''[[Jungle Planet (colony)|Jungle Planet]]''' is full of robotic beasts, with deeply-complex, nigh-organic sculpting that brings to mind the [[Transmetal|Transmetal IIs]] of ''[[Beast Wars: Transformers (toyline)|Beast Wars]]'' or the [[technorganic]] ''[[Beast Machines: Transformers (toyline)|Beast Machines]]'' [[Maximal]] toys. Robot modes feature limbs made from beast-bits, clawed hands, and fanged mouths. Melee weapons rule the land, with most Cyber Key gimmicks focused on pop-out blades.
:*The '''[[Gigantion|Giant Planet]]''' is about heavy machinery. ''Very'' heavy machinery. Though few in number compared to the rest of the planets, they live up to their planet's name by being some of the largest toys in the line. These heavy construction (or ''de''struction) vehicles are bulky and industrial, plus each one has a tiny [[Mini-Con]] partner to operate a work station somewhere on each bot's vehicle or robot mode.
:*'''[[Planet X (Cybertron)|Planet X]]''' bots are similarly few in number. Their only real unifying style is "futuristic danger". The vehicle modes are sleek and deadly-looking, robot modes vicious and pointy.

The tail-end of the line was again heavy on the [[redeco]]es (by then a practice that had become expected and largely accepted), but also brought micro-play back into the line. Mini-Con two-packs were released to bolster the ranks of the still-popular Mini-Con class. But the history-making addition to the ''Transformers'' franchise was in the [[Legends Class (2005)|Legends Class]] toys. These sub-Scout, simple and above all ''inexpensive'' toys were based on the larger toys of popular/major characters, giving kids the chance to own an Optimus Prime or Megatron they could keep in their pocket. From this point on, Legends-sized toys would continue on in some manner through every major ''Transformers'' toyline.

The ''Cybertron'' toyline was one of the first lines to create an ''almost'' perfect representation of robot mode [[scale]] between figures within the line. The previous two toylines in the [[Unicron Trilogy continuity family|Unicron Trilogy]] had almost achieved similar results but a lot of the time characters in the cartoons would either be drawn or have their CG models resized into [[Tidal Wave (Armada)|exaggerated proportions]], creating a huge difference between the figures in-hand and the characters presented on-screen. It's likely feasible that the ''[[Transformers: Cybertron (cartoon)|Cybertron]]'' cartoon copied the toyline's scale between characters rather than the other way around. This is further evident as a lot of the vehicles in the toyline are out of [[Hot Shot (Armada)/toys#Cybertron|scale]] [[Scattorshot (Cybertron)#Toys|with]] [[Mudflap (Cybertron)#Toys|one]] [[Lugnutz#Toys|another]], however the show ''usually'' fixed this issue by resizing vehicle animation models to fit a realistic scale. While most of the toyline scale is consistent with what is on-screen, the Giant Planet Natives and [[Primus]] are the main exceptions to this, as they were greatly exaggerated in size on-screen to further support the "giant" aspect of their race, and Primus is... well... obviously a [[Cybertron (planet)|planet]]. Supreme Class [[Starscream (Armada)/toys#Cybertron|Starscream]] can also be displayed with other figures in the line to create a fairly well-scaled representation of the [[Starscream (episode)|episode which inspired the toy]] or next to fellow Supreme Class figure, Primus, to imitate [[Titans|another scene]], much like ''Energon''{{'}}s [[Omega Supreme (Energon)#Toys|Omega]]/[[Optimus Prime (Armada)/toys#Cybertron|Optimus Supreme]] and [[Unicron]].

==Hasbro ''Cybertron'' toyline==
For Hasbro's line, every Cyber Key (packaged with every toy Scout Class or larger) has a short alphanumeric code printed on its back. These [[Cyber Key Codes]], when plugged into the official ''Cybertron'' website (now defunct), unlocked design sketches and extra biographical info on each toy.

====Mini-Con Class====
Though we're listing these first as part of our standard "go up in size class" organization, it should be noted that these releases came out in the back half of the ''Cybertron'' line, with the fourth (and ultimately final) wave suffering from "[[tail-ender]] syndrome" as the line shut down.

==Hasbro European market-only releases==
{{anchor|Europe}}
As with ''[[Transformers: Energon (toyline)|Energon]]'' before it, the European ''Cybertron'' line was mostly just the US line outlined above. However, two sets of [[Micromaster]] [[combiner]] teams that were released as part of the [[Transformers: Universe (2003 toyline)|2003 ''Universe'' toy line]] (which was never officially distributed as such in Europe) in the US, exclusive to [[KB Toys]], got released under the ''Cybertron'' banner, using a different assortment number (29514) than their own ''Universe'' counterparts as well as the earlier ''Energon''/''Universe'' figures (all of which were released under the assortment number 29460).

==Takara ''Galaxy Force'' toyline==
[[File:TF-Galaxy-Force-Logo.png|left|300px]]
Premiering roughly half a year before ''Cybertron'' (as Hasbro's lines tended to run approximately 18 months while Takara stuck with 12 months), ''Galaxy Force'' would mostly feature slight alterations from the Hasbro versions. Some of the additions to the line, like the ''[[Transformers: Armada (toyline)|Armada]]'' retools (sold in Vs packs in Japan) would eventually make their way to the States.

Store-promo [[Mini-Con]] giveaways returned in a big way, with full teams devoted to some of the major characters in the line.

Presumably due to lackluster sales, the line ended even earlier than its projected twelve-month run, after only ''nine'' months. Several characters and redecos that appeared on the show were either never released in Japan at all, or were given a limited production run and/or only made available as exclusives: First, "Dark Ligerjack" (aka Nemesis Breaker), despite being initially assigned the ID number GD-14, was relegated to a Toys"R"Us Japan exclusive; then "Master Megatron" was given a "limited edition" release; the "Dark Crumplezone" redeco of "Landbullet" (named "Armbullet" in the anime), despite being initially assigned the ID number GD-15, was never officially released in Japan at all; Primus was released in an unaltered Hasbro deco (complete with a [[tampograph]]ed [[Cyber Key Codes|Cyber Key code]] that was only relevant for the Hasbro release) in special retro packaging marketed as part of the [[Fight! Super Robot Lifeform Transformers (toyline)|''Fight! Super Robot Lifeform Transformers'' toy line]]; and "Blendar" (Quickmix) and "Moledive" (Menasor) were only released as [[e-HOBBY]] exclusive "[[USA Edition]]s", also in unaltered Hasbro decos in Hasbro packaging with additional stickers on the packaging, more than a year after the ''Galaxy Force'' line had run its course at retail.

==Notes==
* Fun fact: a large majority of figures in the ''Cybertron'' toyline have to have their heads rotated 180° degrees for transformation; whether it be absolutely necessary for clearance/design intent, or for cosmetic reasons (e.g. [[Thundercracker (Armada)#Cybertron|Thundercracker]], whose face gets exposed in vehicle mode whenever his [[Cyber Key]] [[gimmick]] is activated). Since the [[character model|cartoon models]] were heavily based on the toys, this would also be frequently shown in the [[stock footage]] transformation sequences.

Transformers: Cybertron (toyline)

2024-12-09T22:01:09Z

ScreamerFan: /* Deluxe Class */

{{nav-cybertron}}
[[File:Cybertrontoy leader optimus prime.jpg|upright=2|thumb|Leader Class Optimus Prime, an example of how complex these toys could get.]]

The final act of the "[[Unicron Trilogy continuity family|Unicron Trilogy]]", '''''Transformers: Cybertron''''' vastly expanded the scope of the ''Transformers'' universe, bringing in the theme of "[[Cybertronian colonies|lost colonies]]" with different styles, while still unifying the toyline under a central play-[[gimmick]], the [[Cyber Planet Key]]s.

{{TOCclear}}

==Overview==
[[File:Cyb-toy Override.jpg|upright=1.67|thumb|Deluxe Class Override]]
After ''[[Transformers: Energon (toyline)|Energon]]''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s rather muddled [[gimmick]]/theme presentation, Hasbro dialed it back for ''Cybertron'' by sticking with a single unifying play gimmick: the [[Cyber Key]]s. These large discs, with designs based on the planet of their origin, unlocked pop-out weapons and action features in each toy once plugged into the key slot. Any planet's key would work with any toy. With the spring-loaded gimmicks less complex than those in ''[[Transformers: Armada (toyline)|Armada]]'', they freed up the designs to allow for more robot-mode posability.

Where ''Cybertron'' gets its diversity is in its aesthetics, through the different planets each Transformer could hail from. Each planet has its own theme, with the toy designs reflecting the culture of each world.

:*'''[[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]]''' and '''[[Earth]]''' toys are the most traditional of the series, with future-tech-vehicle and close-to-real-life vehicles respectively, and more "traditional" proportions and detailing.
:*The '''[[Velocitron|Speed Planet]]''' toys are naturally all about the fastness. The vehicle modes are futuristic and fantastical, with transparent plastic tires and other accents. Even the bulkier vehicle modes at least look like they were built for raw horsepower. Colors are bright and clashing, the robot modes themselves streamlined. The Cyber Key gimmicks are typically tied to their swing-out blaster weapons.
:*The brutal '''[[Jungle Planet (colony)|Jungle Planet]]''' is full of robotic beasts, with deeply-complex, nigh-organic sculpting that brings to mind the [[Transmetal|Transmetal IIs]] of ''[[Beast Wars: Transformers (toyline)|Beast Wars]]'' or the [[technorganic]] ''[[Beast Machines: Transformers (toyline)|Beast Machines]]'' [[Maximal]] toys. Robot modes feature limbs made from beast-bits, clawed hands, and fanged mouths. Melee weapons rule the land, with most Cyber Key gimmicks focused on pop-out blades.
:*The '''[[Gigantion|Giant Planet]]''' is about heavy machinery. ''Very'' heavy machinery. Though few in number compared to the rest of the planets, they live up to their planet's name by being some of the largest toys in the line. These heavy construction (or ''de''struction) vehicles are bulky and industrial, plus each one has a tiny [[Mini-Con]] partner to operate a work station somewhere on each bot's vehicle or robot mode.
:*'''[[Planet X (Cybertron)|Planet X]]''' bots are similarly few in number. Their only real unifying style is "futuristic danger". The vehicle modes are sleek and deadly-looking, robot modes vicious and pointy.

The tail-end of the line was again heavy on the [[redeco]]es (by then a practice that had become expected and largely accepted), but also brought micro-play back into the line. Mini-Con two-packs were released to bolster the ranks of the still-popular Mini-Con class. But the history-making addition to the ''Transformers'' franchise was in the [[Legends Class (2005)|Legends Class]] toys. These sub-Scout, simple and above all ''inexpensive'' toys were based on the larger toys of popular/major characters, giving kids the chance to own an Optimus Prime or Megatron they could keep in their pocket. From this point on, Legends-sized toys would continue on in some manner through every major ''Transformers'' toyline.

The ''Cybertron'' toyline was one of the first lines to create an ''almost'' perfect representation of robot mode [[scale]] between figures within the line. The previous two toylines in the [[Unicron Trilogy continuity family|Unicron Trilogy]] had almost achieved similar results but a lot of the time characters in the cartoons would either be drawn or have their CG models resized into [[Tidal Wave (Armada)|exaggerated proportions]], creating a huge difference between the figures in-hand and the characters presented on-screen. It's likely feasible that the ''[[Transformers: Cybertron (cartoon)|Cybertron]]'' cartoon copied the toyline's scale between characters rather than the other way around. This is further evident as a lot of the vehicles in the toyline are out of [[Hot Shot (Armada)/toys#Cybertron|scale]] [[Scattorshot (Cybertron)#Toys|with]] [[Mudflap (Cybertron)#Toys|one]] [[Lugnutz#Toys|another]], however the show ''usually'' fixed this issue by resizing vehicle animation models to fit a realistic scale. While most of the toyline scale is consistent with what is on-screen, the Giant Planet Natives and [[Primus]] are the main exceptions to this, as they were greatly exaggerated in size on-screen to further support the "giant" aspect of their race, and Primus is... well... obviously a [[Cybertron (planet)|planet]]. Supreme Class [[Starscream (Armada)/toys#Cybertron|Starscream]] can also be displayed with other figures in the line to create a fairly well-scaled representation of the [[Starscream (episode)|episode which inspired the toy]] or next to fellow Supreme Class figure, Primus, to imitate [[Titans|another scene]], much like ''Energon''{{'}}s [[Omega Supreme (Energon)#Toys|Omega]]/[[Optimus Prime (Armada)/toys#Cybertron|Optimus Supreme]] and [[Unicron]].

==Hasbro ''Cybertron'' toyline==
For Hasbro's line, every Cyber Key (packaged with every toy Scout Class or larger) has a short alphanumeric code printed on its back. These [[Cyber Key Codes]], when plugged into the official ''Cybertron'' website (now defunct), unlocked design sketches and extra biographical info on each toy.

====Mini-Con Class====
Though we're listing these first as part of our standard "go up in size class" organization, it should be noted that these releases came out in the back half of the ''Cybertron'' line, with the fourth (and ultimately final) wave suffering from "[[tail-ender]] syndrome" as the line shut down.

==Hasbro European market-only releases==
{{anchor|Europe}}
As with ''[[Transformers: Energon (toyline)|Energon]]'' before it, the European ''Cybertron'' line was mostly just the US line outlined above. However, two sets of [[Micromaster]] [[combiner]] teams that were released as part of the [[Transformers: Universe (2003 toyline)|2003 ''Universe'' toy line]] (which was never officially distributed as such in Europe) in the US, exclusive to [[KB Toys]], got released under the ''Cybertron'' banner, using a different assortment number (29514) than their own ''Universe'' counterparts as well as the earlier ''Energon''/''Universe'' figures (all of which were released under the assortment number 29460).

==Takara ''Galaxy Force'' toyline==
[[File:TF-Galaxy-Force-Logo.png|left|300px]]
Premiering roughly half a year before ''Cybertron'' (as Hasbro's lines tended to run approximately 18 months while Takara stuck with 12 months), ''Galaxy Force'' would mostly feature slight alterations from the Hasbro versions. Some of the additions to the line, like the ''[[Transformers: Armada (toyline)|Armada]]'' retools (sold in Vs packs in Japan) would eventually make their way to the States.

Store-promo [[Mini-Con]] giveaways returned in a big way, with full teams devoted to some of the major characters in the line.

Presumably due to lackluster sales, the line ended even earlier than its projected twelve-month run, after only ''nine'' months. Several characters and redecos that appeared on the show were either never released in Japan at all, or were given a limited production run and/or only made available as exclusives: First, "Dark Ligerjack" (aka Nemesis Breaker), despite being initially assigned the ID number GD-14, was relegated to a Toys"R"Us Japan exclusive; then "Master Megatron" was given a "limited edition" release; the "Dark Crumplezone" redeco of "Landbullet" (named "Armbullet" in the anime), despite being initially assigned the ID number GD-15, was never officially released in Japan at all; Primus was released in an unaltered Hasbro deco (complete with a [[tampograph]]ed [[Cyber Key Codes|Cyber Key code]] that was only relevant for the Hasbro release) in special retro packaging marketed as part of the [[Fight! Super Robot Lifeform Transformers (toyline)|''Fight! Super Robot Lifeform Transformers'' toy line]]; and "Blendar" (Quickmix) and "Moledive" (Menasor) were only released as [[e-HOBBY]] exclusive "[[USA Edition]]s", also in unaltered Hasbro decos in Hasbro packaging with additional stickers on the packaging, more than a year after the ''Galaxy Force'' line had run its course at retail.

==Notes==
* Fun fact: a large majority of figures in the ''Cybertron'' toyline have to have their heads rotated 180° degrees for transformation; whether it be absolutely necessary for clearance/design intent, or for cosmetic reasons (e.g. [[Thundercracker (Armada)#Cybertron|Thundercracker]], whose face gets exposed in vehicle mode whenever his [[Cyber Key]] [[gimmick]] is activated). Since the [[character model|cartoon models]] were heavily based on the toys, this would also be frequently shown in the [[stock footage]] transformation sequences.

Transformers: Cybertron (toyline)

[[File:Cybertrontoy leader optimus prime.jpg|upright=2|thumb|Leader Class Optimus Prime, an example of how complex these toys could get.]]

The final act of the "[[Unicron Trilogy continuity family|Unicron Trilogy]]", '''''Transformers: Cybertron''''' vastly expanded the scope of the ''Transformers'' universe, bringing in the theme of "[[Cybertronian colonies|lost colonies]]" with different styles, while still unifying the toyline under a central play-[[gimmick]], the [[Cyber Planet Key]]s.

{{TOCclear}}

==Overview==
[[File:Cyb-toy Override.jpg|upright=1.67|thumb|Deluxe Class Override]]
After ''[[Transformers: Energon (toyline)|Energon]]''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s rather muddled [[gimmick]]/theme presentation, Hasbro dialed it back for ''Cybertron'' by sticking with a single unifying play gimmick: the [[Cyber Key]]s. These large discs, with designs based on the planet of their origin, unlocked pop-out weapons and action features in each toy once plugged into the key slot. Any planet's key would work with any toy. With the spring-loaded gimmicks less complex than those in ''[[Transformers: Armada (toyline)|Armada]]'', they freed up the designs to allow for more robot-mode posability.

Where ''Cybertron'' gets its diversity is in its aesthetics, through the different planets each Transformer could hail from. Each planet has its own theme, with the toy designs reflecting the culture of each world.

:*'''[[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]]''' and '''[[Earth]]''' toys are the most traditional of the series, with future-tech-vehicle and close-to-real-life vehicles respectively, and more "traditional" proportions and detailing.
:*The '''[[Velocitron|Speed Planet]]''' toys are naturally all about the fastness. The vehicle modes are futuristic and fantastical, with transparent plastic tires and other accents. Even the bulkier vehicle modes at least look like they were built for raw horsepower. Colors are bright and clashing, the robot modes themselves streamlined. The Cyber Key gimmicks are typically tied to their swing-out blaster weapons.
:*The brutal '''[[Jungle Planet (colony)|Jungle Planet]]''' is full of robotic beasts, with deeply-complex, nigh-organic sculpting that brings to mind the [[Transmetal|Transmetal IIs]] of ''[[Beast Wars: Transformers (toyline)|Beast Wars]]'' or the [[technorganic]] ''[[Beast Machines: Transformers (toyline)|Beast Machines]]'' [[Maximal]] toys. Robot modes feature limbs made from beast-bits, clawed hands, and fanged mouths. Melee weapons rule the land, with most Cyber Key gimmicks focused on pop-out blades.
:*The '''[[Gigantion|Giant Planet]]''' is about heavy machinery. ''Very'' heavy machinery. Though few in number compared to the rest of the planets, they live up to their planet's name by being some of the largest toys in the line. These heavy construction (or ''de''struction) vehicles are bulky and industrial, plus each one has a tiny [[Mini-Con]] partner to operate a work station somewhere on each bot's vehicle or robot mode.
:*'''[[Planet X (Cybertron)|Planet X]]''' bots are similarly few in number. Their only real unifying style is "futuristic danger". The vehicle modes are sleek and deadly-looking, robot modes vicious and pointy.

The tail-end of the line was again heavy on the [[redeco]]es (by then a practice that had become expected and largely accepted), but also brought micro-play back into the line. Mini-Con two-packs were released to bolster the ranks of the still-popular Mini-Con class. But the history-making addition to the ''Transformers'' franchise was in the [[Legends Class (2005)|Legends Class]] toys. These sub-Scout, simple and above all ''inexpensive'' toys were based on the larger toys of popular/major characters, giving kids the chance to own an Optimus Prime or Megatron they could keep in their pocket. From this point on, Legends-sized toys would continue on in some manner through every major ''Transformers'' toyline.

The ''Cybertron'' toyline was one of the first lines to create an ''almost'' perfect representation of robot mode [[scale]] between figures within the line. The previous two toylines in the [[Unicron Trilogy continuity family|Unicron Trilogy]] had almost achieved similar results but a lot of the time characters in the cartoons would either be drawn or have their CG models resized into [[Tidal Wave (Armada)|exaggerated proportions]], creating a huge difference between the figures in-hand and the characters presented on-screen. It's likely feasible that the ''[[Transformers: Cybertron (cartoon)|Cybertron]]'' cartoon copied the toyline's scale between characters rather than the other way around. This is further evident as a lot of the vehicles in the toyline are out of [[Hot Shot (Armada)/toys#Cybertron|scale]] [[Scattorshot (Cybertron)#Toys|with]] [[Mudflap (Cybertron)#Toys|one]] [[Lugnutz#Toys|another]], however the show ''usually'' fixed this issue by resizing vehicle animation models to fit a realistic scale. While most of the toyline scale is consistent with what is on-screen, the Giant Planet Natives and [[Primus]] are the main exceptions to this, as they were greatly exaggerated in size on-screen to further support the "giant" aspect of their race, and Primus is... well... obviously a [[Cybertron (planet)|planet]]. Supreme Class [[Starscream (Armada)/toys#Cybertron|Starscream]] can also be displayed with other figures in the line to create a fairly well-scaled representation of the [[Starscream (episode)|episode which inspired the toy]] or next to fellow Supreme Class figure, Primus, to imitate [[Titans|another scene]], much like ''Energon''{{'}}s [[Omega Supreme (Energon)#Toys|Omega]]/[[Optimus Prime (Armada)/toys#Cybertron|Optimus Supreme]] and [[Unicron]].

==Hasbro ''Cybertron'' toyline==
For Hasbro's line, every Cyber Key (packaged with every toy Scout Class or larger) has a short alphanumeric code printed on its back. These [[Cyber Key Codes]], when plugged into the official ''Cybertron'' website (now defunct), unlocked design sketches and extra biographical info on each toy.

===General retail===
====Mini-Con Class====
Though we're listing these first as part of our standard "go up in size class" organization, it should be noted that these releases came out in the back half of the ''Cybertron'' line, with the fourth (and ultimately final) wave suffering from "[[tail-ender]] syndrome" as the line shut down.

==Hasbro European market-only releases==
{{anchor|Europe}}
As with ''[[Transformers: Energon (toyline)|Energon]]'' before it, the European ''Cybertron'' line was mostly just the US line outlined above. However, two sets of [[Micromaster]] [[combiner]] teams that were released as part of the [[Transformers: Universe (2003 toyline)|2003 ''Universe'' toy line]] (which was never officially distributed as such in Europe) in the US, exclusive to [[KB Toys]], got released under the ''Cybertron'' banner, using a different assortment number (29514) than their own ''Universe'' counterparts as well as the earlier ''Energon''/''Universe'' figures (all of which were released under the assortment number 29460).

==Takara ''Galaxy Force'' toyline==
[[File:TF-Galaxy-Force-Logo.png|left|300px]]
Premiering roughly half a year before ''Cybertron'' (as Hasbro's lines tended to run approximately 18 months while Takara stuck with 12 months), ''Galaxy Force'' would mostly feature slight alterations from the Hasbro versions. Some of the additions to the line, like the ''[[Transformers: Armada (toyline)|Armada]]'' retools (sold in Vs packs in Japan) would eventually make their way to the States.

Store-promo [[Mini-Con]] giveaways returned in a big way, with full teams devoted to some of the major characters in the line.

Presumably due to lackluster sales, the line ended even earlier than its projected twelve-month run, after only ''nine'' months. Several characters and redecos that appeared on the show were either never released in Japan at all, or were given a limited production run and/or only made available as exclusives: First, "Dark Ligerjack" (aka Nemesis Breaker), despite being initially assigned the ID number GD-14, was relegated to a Toys"R"Us Japan exclusive; then "Master Megatron" was given a "limited edition" release; the "Dark Crumplezone" redeco of "Landbullet" (named "Armbullet" in the anime), despite being initially assigned the ID number GD-15, was never officially released in Japan at all; Primus was released in an unaltered Hasbro deco (complete with a [[tampograph]]ed [[Cyber Key Codes|Cyber Key code]] that was only relevant for the Hasbro release) in special retro packaging marketed as part of the [[Fight! Super Robot Lifeform Transformers (toyline)|''Fight! Super Robot Lifeform Transformers'' toy line]]; and "Blendar" (Quickmix) and "Moledive" (Menasor) were only released as [[e-HOBBY]] exclusive "[[USA Edition]]s", also in unaltered Hasbro decos in Hasbro packaging with additional stickers on the packaging, more than a year after the ''Galaxy Force'' line had run its course at retail.

==Notes==
* Fun fact: a large majority of figures in the ''Cybertron'' toyline have to have their heads rotated 180° degrees for transformation; whether it be absolutely necessary for clearance/design intent, or for cosmetic reasons (e.g. [[Thundercracker (Armada)#Cybertron|Thundercracker]], whose face gets exposed in vehicle mode whenever his [[Cyber Key]] [[gimmick]] is activated). Since the [[character model|cartoon models]] were heavily based on the toys, this would also be frequently shown in the [[stock footage]] transformation sequences.

Transformers: Cybertron (toyline)

[[File:Cybertrontoy leader optimus prime.jpg|upright=2|thumb|Leader Class Optimus Prime, an example of how complex these toys could get.]]

The final act of the "[[Unicron Trilogy continuity family|Unicron Trilogy]]", '''''Transformers: Cybertron''''' vastly expanded the scope of the ''Transformers'' universe, bringing in the theme of "[[Cybertronian colonies|lost colonies]]" with different styles, while still unifying the toyline under a central play-[[gimmick]], the [[Cyber Planet Key]]s.

{{TOCclear}}

==Overview==
[[File:Cyb-toy Override.jpg|upright=1.67|thumb|Deluxe Class Override]]
After ''[[Transformers: Energon (toyline)|Energon]]''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s rather muddled [[gimmick]]/theme presentation, Hasbro dialed it back for ''Cybertron'' by sticking with a single unifying play gimmick: the [[Cyber Key]]s. These large discs, with designs based on the planet of their origin, unlocked pop-out weapons and action features in each toy once plugged into the key slot. Any planet's key would work with any toy. With the spring-loaded gimmicks less complex than those in ''[[Transformers: Armada (toyline)|Armada]]'', they freed up the designs to allow for more robot-mode posability.

Where ''Cybertron'' gets its diversity is in its aesthetics, through the different planets each Transformer could hail from. Each planet has its own theme, with the toy designs reflecting the culture of each world.

:*'''[[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]]''' and '''[[Earth]]''' toys are the most traditional of the series, with future-tech-vehicle and close-to-real-life vehicles respectively, and more "traditional" proportions and detailing.
:*The '''[[Velocitron|Speed Planet]]''' toys are naturally all about the fastness. The vehicle modes are futuristic and fantastical, with transparent plastic tires and other accents. Even the bulkier vehicle modes at least look like they were built for raw horsepower. Colors are bright and clashing, the robot modes themselves streamlined. The Cyber Key gimmicks are typically tied to their swing-out blaster weapons.
:*The brutal '''[[Jungle Planet (colony)|Jungle Planet]]''' is full of robotic beasts, with deeply-complex, nigh-organic sculpting that brings to mind the [[Transmetal|Transmetal IIs]] of ''[[Beast Wars: Transformers (toyline)|Beast Wars]]'' or the [[technorganic]] ''[[Beast Machines: Transformers (toyline)|Beast Machines]]'' [[Maximal]] toys. Robot modes feature limbs made from beast-bits, clawed hands, and fanged mouths. Melee weapons rule the land, with most Cyber Key gimmicks focused on pop-out blades.
:*The '''[[Gigantion|Giant Planet]]''' is about heavy machinery. ''Very'' heavy machinery. Though few in number compared to the rest of the planets, they live up to their planet's name by being some of the largest toys in the line. These heavy construction (or ''de''struction) vehicles are bulky and industrial, plus each one has a tiny [[Mini-Con]] partner to operate a work station somewhere on each bot's vehicle or robot mode.
:*'''[[Planet X (Cybertron)|Planet X]]''' bots are similarly few in number. Their only real unifying style is "futuristic danger". The vehicle modes are sleek and deadly-looking, robot modes vicious and pointy.

The tail-end of the line was again heavy on the [[redeco]]es (by then a practice that had become expected and largely accepted), but also brought micro-play back into the line. Mini-Con two-packs were released to bolster the ranks of the still-popular Mini-Con class. But the history-making addition to the ''Transformers'' franchise was in the [[Legends Class (2005)|Legends Class]] toys. These sub-Scout, simple and above all ''inexpensive'' toys were based on the larger toys of popular/major characters, giving kids the chance to own an Optimus Prime or Megatron they could keep in their pocket. From this point on, Legends-sized toys would continue on in some manner through every major ''Transformers'' toyline.

The ''Cybertron'' toyline was one of the first lines to create an ''almost'' perfect representation of robot mode [[scale]] between figures within the line. The previous two toylines in the [[Unicron Trilogy continuity family|Unicron Trilogy]] had almost achieved similar results but a lot of the time characters in the cartoons would either be drawn or have their CG models resized into [[Tidal Wave (Armada)|exaggerated proportions]], creating a huge difference between the figures in-hand and the characters presented on-screen. It's likely feasible that the ''[[Transformers: Cybertron (cartoon)|Cybertron]]'' cartoon copied the toyline's scale between characters rather than the other way around. This is further evident as a lot of the vehicles in the toyline are out of [[Hot Shot (Armada)/toys#Cybertron|scale]] [[Scattorshot (Cybertron)#Toys|with]] [[Mudflap (Cybertron)#Toys|one]] [[Lugnutz#Toys|another]], however the show ''usually'' fixed this issue by resizing vehicle animation models to fit a realistic scale. While most of the toyline scale is consistent with what is on-screen, the Giant Planet Natives and [[Primus]] are the main exceptions to this, as they were greatly exaggerated in size on-screen to further support the "giant" aspect of their race, and Primus is... well... obviously a [[Cybertron (planet)|planet]]. Supreme Class [[Starscream (Armada)/toys#Cybertron|Starscream]] can also be displayed with other figures in the line to create a fairly well-scaled representation of the [[Starscream (episode)|episode which inspired the toy]] or next to fellow Supreme Class figure, Primus, to imitate [[Titans|another scene]], much like ''Energon''{{'}}s [[Omega Supreme (Energon)#Toys|Omega]]/[[Optimus Prime (Armada)/toys#Cybertron|Optimus Supreme]] and [[Unicron]].

==Hasbro ''Cybertron'' toyline==
For Hasbro's line, every Cyber Key (packaged with every toy Scout Class or larger) has a short alphanumeric code printed on its back. These [[Cyber Key Codes]], when plugged into the official ''Cybertron'' website (now defunct), unlocked design sketches and extra biographical info on each toy.

===General retail===
====Mini-Con Class====
Though we're listing these first as part of our standard "go up in size class" organization, it should be noted that these releases came out in the back half of the ''Cybertron'' line, with the fourth (and ultimately final) wave suffering from "[[tail-ender]] syndrome" as the line shut down.

==Hasbro European market-only releases==
{{anchor|Europe}}
As with ''[[Transformers: Energon (toyline)|Energon]]'' before it, the European ''Cybertron'' line was mostly just the US line outlined above. However, two sets of [[Micromaster]] [[combiner]] teams that were released as part of the [[Transformers: Universe (2003 toyline)|2003 ''Universe'' toy line]] (which was never officially distributed as such in Europe) in the US, exclusive to [[KB Toys]], got released under the ''Cybertron'' banner, using a different assortment number (29514) than their own ''Universe'' counterparts as well as the earlier ''Energon''/''Universe'' figures (all of which were released under the assortment number 29460).

==Takara ''Galaxy Force'' toyline==
[[File:TF-Galaxy-Force-Logo.png|left|300px]]
Premiering roughly half a year before ''Cybertron'' (as Hasbro's lines tended to run approximately 18 months while Takara stuck with 12 months), ''Galaxy Force'' would mostly feature slight alterations from the Hasbro versions. Some of the additions to the line, like the ''[[Transformers: Armada (toyline)|Armada]]'' retools (sold in Vs packs in Japan) would eventually make their way to the States.

Store-promo [[Mini-Con]] giveaways returned in a big way, with full teams devoted to some of the major characters in the line.

Presumably due to lackluster sales, the line ended even earlier than its projected twelve-month run, after only ''nine'' months. Several characters and redecos that appeared on the show were either never released in Japan at all, or were given a limited production run and/or only made available as exclusives: First, "Dark Ligerjack" (aka Nemesis Breaker), despite being initially assigned the ID number GD-14, was relegated to a Toys"R"Us Japan exclusive; then "Master Megatron" was given a "limited edition" release; the "Dark Crumplezone" redeco of "Landbullet" (named "Armbullet" in the anime), despite being initially assigned the ID number GD-15, was never officially released in Japan at all; Primus was released in an unaltered Hasbro deco (complete with a [[tampograph]]ed [[Cyber Key Codes|Cyber Key code]] that was only relevant for the Hasbro release) in special retro packaging marketed as part of the [[Fight! Super Robot Lifeform Transformers (toyline)|''Fight! Super Robot Lifeform Transformers'' toy line]]; and "Blendar" (Quickmix) and "Moledive" (Menasor) were only released as [[e-HOBBY]] exclusive "[[USA Edition]]s", also in unaltered Hasbro decos in Hasbro packaging with additional stickers on the packaging, more than a year after the ''Galaxy Force'' line had run its course at retail.

==Notes==
* Fun fact: a large majority of figures in the ''Cybertron'' toyline have to have their heads rotated 180° degrees for transformation; whether it be absolutely necessary for clearance/design intent, or for cosmetic reasons (e.g. [[Thundercracker (Armada)#Cybertron|Thundercracker]], whose face gets exposed in vehicle mode whenever his [[Cyber Key]] [[gimmick]] is activated). Since the [[character model|cartoon models]] were heavily based on the toys, this would also be frequently shown in the [[stock footage]] transformation sequences.

Transformers: Cybertron (toyline)

[[File:Cybertrontoy leader optimus prime.jpg|upright=2|thumb|Leader Class Optimus Prime, an example of how complex these toys could get.]]

The final act of the "[[Unicron Trilogy continuity family|Unicron Trilogy]]", '''''Transformers: Cybertron''''' vastly expanded the scope of the ''Transformers'' universe, bringing in the theme of "[[Cybertronian colonies|lost colonies]]" with different styles, while still unifying the toyline under a central play-[[gimmick]], the [[Cyber Planet Key]]s.

{{TOCclear}}

==Overview==
[[File:Cyb-toy Override.jpg|upright=1.67|thumb|Deluxe Class Override]]
After ''[[Transformers: Energon (toyline)|Energon]]''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s rather muddled [[gimmick]]/theme presentation, Hasbro dialed it back for ''Cybertron'' by sticking with a single unifying play gimmick: the [[Cyber Key]]s. These large discs, with designs based on the planet of their origin, unlocked pop-out weapons and action features in each toy once plugged into the key slot. Any planet's key would work with any toy. With the spring-loaded gimmicks less complex than those in ''[[Transformers: Armada (toyline)|Armada]]'', they freed up the designs to allow for more robot-mode posability.

Where ''Cybertron'' gets its diversity is in its aesthetics, through the different planets each Transformer could hail from. Each planet has its own theme, with the toy designs reflecting the culture of each world.

:*'''[[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]]''' and '''[[Earth]]''' toys are the most traditional of the series, with future-tech-vehicle and close-to-real-life vehicles respectively, and more "traditional" proportions and detailing.
:*The '''[[Velocitron|Speed Planet]]''' toys are naturally all about the fastness. The vehicle modes are futuristic and fantastical, with transparent plastic tires and other accents. Even the bulkier vehicle modes at least look like they were built for raw horsepower. Colors are bright and clashing, the robot modes themselves streamlined. The Cyber Key gimmicks are typically tied to their swing-out blaster weapons.
:*The brutal '''[[Jungle Planet (colony)|Jungle Planet]]''' is full of robotic beasts, with deeply-complex, nigh-organic sculpting that brings to mind the [[Transmetal|Transmetal IIs]] of ''[[Beast Wars: Transformers (toyline)|Beast Wars]]'' or the [[technorganic]] ''[[Beast Machines: Transformers (toyline)|Beast Machines]]'' [[Maximal]] toys. Robot modes feature limbs made from beast-bits, clawed hands, and fanged mouths. Melee weapons rule the land, with most Cyber Key gimmicks focused on pop-out blades.
:*The '''[[Gigantion|Giant Planet]]''' is about heavy machinery. ''Very'' heavy machinery. Though few in number compared to the rest of the planets, they live up to their planet's name by being some of the largest toys in the line. These heavy construction (or ''de''struction) vehicles are bulky and industrial, plus each one has a tiny [[Mini-Con]] partner to operate a work station somewhere on each bot's vehicle or robot mode.
:*'''[[Planet X (Cybertron)|Planet X]]''' bots are similarly few in number. Their only real unifying style is "futuristic danger". The vehicle modes are sleek and deadly-looking, robot modes vicious and pointy.

The tail-end of the line was again heavy on the [[redeco]]es (by then a practice that had become expected and largely accepted), but also brought micro-play back into the line. Mini-Con two-packs were released to bolster the ranks of the still-popular Mini-Con class. But the history-making addition to the ''Transformers'' franchise was in the [[Legends Class (2005)|Legends Class]] toys. These sub-Scout, simple and above all ''inexpensive'' toys were based on the larger toys of popular/major characters, giving kids the chance to own an Optimus Prime or Megatron they could keep in their pocket. From this point on, Legends-sized toys would continue on in some manner through every major ''Transformers'' toyline.

The ''Cybertron'' toyline was one of the first lines to create an ''almost'' perfect representation of robot mode [[scale]] between figures within the line. The previous two toylines in the [[Unicron Trilogy continuity family|Unicron Trilogy]] had almost achieved similar results but a lot of the time characters in the cartoons would either be drawn or have their CG models resized into [[Tidal Wave (Armada)|exaggerated proportions]], creating a huge difference between the figures in-hand and the characters presented on-screen. It's likely feasible that the ''[[Transformers: Cybertron (cartoon)|Cybertron]]'' cartoon copied the toyline's scale between characters rather than the other way around. This is further evident as a lot of the vehicles in the toyline are out of [[Hot Shot (Armada)/toys#Cybertron|scale]] [[Scattorshot (Cybertron)#Toys|with]] [[Mudflap (Cybertron)#Toys|one]] [[Lugnutz#Toys|another]], however the show ''usually'' fixed this issue by resizing vehicle animation models to fit a realistic scale. While most of the toyline scale is consistent with what is on-screen, the Giant Planet Natives and [[Primus]] are the main exceptions to this, as they were greatly exaggerated in size on-screen to further support the "giant" aspect of their race, and Primus is... well... obviously a [[Cybertron (planet)|planet]]. Supreme Class [[Starscream (Armada)/toys#Cybertron|Starscream]] can also be displayed with other figures in the line to create a fairly well-scaled representation of the [[Starscream (episode)|episode which inspired the toy]] or next to fellow Supreme Class figure, Primus, to imitate [[Titans|another scene]], much like ''Energon''{{'}}s [[Omega Supreme (Energon)#Toys|Omega]]/[[Optimus Prime (Armada)/toys#Cybertron|Optimus Supreme]] and [[Unicron]].

==Hasbro ''Cybertron'' toyline==
For Hasbro's line, every Cyber Key (packaged with every toy Scout Class or larger) has a short alphanumeric code printed on its back. These [[Cyber Key Codes]], when plugged into the official ''Cybertron'' website (now defunct), unlocked design sketches and extra biographical info on each toy.

===General retail===
====Mini-Con Class====
Though we're listing these first as part of our standard "go up in size class" organization, it should be noted that these releases came out in the back half of the ''Cybertron'' line, with the fourth (and ultimately final) wave suffering from "[[tail-ender]] syndrome" as the line shut down.

==Hasbro European market-only releases==
{{anchor|Europe}}
As with ''[[Transformers: Energon (toyline)|Energon]]'' before it, the European ''Cybertron'' line was mostly just the US line outlined above. However, two sets of [[Micromaster]] [[combiner]] teams that were released as part of the [[Transformers: Universe (2003 toyline)|2003 ''Universe'' toy line]] (which was never officially distributed as such in Europe) in the US, exclusive to [[KB Toys]], got released under the ''Cybertron'' banner, using a different assortment number (29514) than their own ''Universe'' counterparts as well as the earlier ''Energon''/''Universe'' figures (all of which were released under the assortment number 29460).

==Takara ''Galaxy Force'' toyline==
[[File:TF-Galaxy-Force-Logo.png|left|300px]]
Premiering roughly half a year before ''Cybertron'' (as Hasbro's lines tended to run approximately 18 months while Takara stuck with 12 months), ''Galaxy Force'' would mostly feature slight alterations from the Hasbro versions. Some of the additions to the line, like the ''[[Transformers: Armada (toyline)|Armada]]'' retools (sold in Vs packs in Japan) would eventually make their way to the States.

Store-promo [[Mini-Con]] giveaways returned in a big way, with full teams devoted to some of the major characters in the line.

Presumably due to lackluster sales, the line ended even earlier than its projected twelve-month run, after only ''nine'' months. Several characters and redecos that appeared on the show were either never released in Japan at all, or were given a limited production run and/or only made available as exclusives: First, "Dark Ligerjack" (aka Nemesis Breaker), despite being initially assigned the ID number GD-14, was relegated to a Toys"R"Us Japan exclusive; then "Master Megatron" was given a "limited edition" release; the "Dark Crumplezone" redeco of "Landbullet" (named "Armbullet" in the anime), despite being initially assigned the ID number GD-15, was never officially released in Japan at all; Primus was released in an unaltered Hasbro deco (complete with a [[tampograph]]ed [[Cyber Key Codes|Cyber Key code]] that was only relevant for the Hasbro release) in special retro packaging marketed as part of the [[Fight! Super Robot Lifeform Transformers (toyline)|''Fight! Super Robot Lifeform Transformers'' toy line]]; and "Blendar" (Quickmix) and "Moledive" (Menasor) were only released as [[e-HOBBY]] exclusive "[[USA Edition]]s", also in unaltered Hasbro decos in Hasbro packaging with additional stickers on the packaging, more than a year after the ''Galaxy Force'' line had run its course at retail.

==Notes==
* Fun fact: a large majority of figures in the ''Cybertron'' toyline have to have their heads rotated 180° degrees for transformation; whether it be absolutely necessary for clearance/design intent, or for cosmetic reasons (e.g. [[Thundercracker (Armada)#Cybertron|Thundercracker]], whose face gets exposed in vehicle mode whenever his [[Cyber Key]] [[gimmick]] is activated). Since the [[character model|cartoon models]] were heavily based on the toys, this would also be frequently shown in the [[stock footage]] transformation sequences.

:''Metalhawk is an [[Autobot]] [[Pretender]] from the [[Generation 1 continuity family]].''
[[File:Metalhawk boxart.jpg|upright=1.85|thumb|"Why does that fat guy insist on cosplaying as ME?!"]]
'''Metalhawk''' (メタルホーク ''Metaruhōku'') is the leader of the [[Autobot]] [[Pretender]]s. Like all great Autobot leaders, he's a warm, noble being with a great love of life, liberty and all of that, and like all those other great leaders, he also got his crew stranded on [[Earth]] when they pursued a group of [[Decepticon]]s there during the Stone Age. Metalhawk was deeply moved by the burgeoning humanity: at first seeing only frail beings that needed defending, he soon came to realize their amazing potential for love, compassion and courage, and was so struck by them that he, and his fellow Autobots, used their Pretender powers to transform themselves into human beings. With the aid of these disguises, they defended early man against the Decepticon Pretenders, who had taken the forms of monsters. They eventually defeated and sealed away the villains, inspiring a few legends themselves in the process, and then went on to help guide the evolution of Earth's society and culture.

By the early 21st century, Metalhawk had adopted the simple human alias of '''Hawk''' (ホーク ''Hōku''), and now works as an astrophysicist at the observatory run by [[Haruma Gō|Professor Gō]]. He is close friends with both the professor, with whom he has entrusted the secret of his true identity, and with the professor's son [[Shūta Gō|Shūta]], who looks up to him and aspires to be like him when he grows up.

Metalhawk transforms into a jet so fast that it can travel from Earth to the [[Moon (moon)|moon]] and back in only fifteen minutes. In [[robot mode]], he has remarkable short-range leaping abilities, and is armed with the mighty Titanium Saber. His ultimate attack technique is the "Shining Arrow", which sees him leap into the air and charge his body with energy which he then rains down on his opponent in a hail of powerful bolts.

==Fiction==
===Japanese Generation 1 cartoon continuity===
====A Tale of the Pretenders====
[[File:Tale of Pretenders Bludgeon.jpg|thumb|left]]
Metalhawk initially did not enjoy his mission on [[Earth]] away from his homeworld of [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]]. While wandering [[Japan]] in human form, Metalhawk leapt to the rescue when a cadre of Decepticon Pretenders threatened two human children. He was attacked by [[Bludgeon (G1)|Bludgeon]] for his trouble and the Decepticon was about to strike a killing blow when the human children stood in defense of their rescuer. Fortunately for Metalhawk and the children, the other Autobot Pretenders found them and fought off the Decepticons. Inspired by the bravery of the children, Metalhawk transformed into robot mode and opened a pit of lava to sink Bludgeon in. When all was said and done, Metalhawk went back to his mission, but this time with a new passion. {{storylink|A Tale of the Pretenders}}

====''Super-God Masterforce Master File''====
Following the expulsion of the Decepticons from Earth after the battle at the North Pole, the Transformers' war shifted into a series of space-based exchanges between Athenia and Chaar known as the [[Master Wars]]. While investigating the re-emergence of [[Scorponok (G1)|Megazarak]], Fortress left guardianship of the planet in the hands of Metalhawk and his [[Pretender]]s. {{storylink|Master File No, 1}}

[[File:Metalhawk human and robot.jpg|upright=1.2|thumb|Pretenders HIDE the Transformer INSIDE... wait, what?]]
Having lived among humankind on Earth for epochs, Metalhawk was the natural choice to serve as protector of the planet when the Autobot forces operating in outer space received word of renewed Decepticon activity brewing on the planet from the former Decepticon, [[Sixshot (G1)|Sixshot]]. Unable to spare any troops to bolster Metalhawk's forces on Earth, the Autobots in space sent a cargo ship carrying six [[Transtector]]s to the planet instead, to which human beings could bond to become new Transformers themselves. Although three of the Transtectors were stolen en route by the Decepticons, Metalhawk safely received the rest, and stored them in the [[Autobot Base|fortified base]] that Professor Gō had arranged the construction of. {{storylink|Birth! Headmaster Jrs}}

[[File:Metalhawk suiton.jpg|thumb|left|"It's Morphin' Time!"]]
Some time later, Metalhawk was returning to the observatory after attending one of Shūta's soccer games with Professor Gō when he received a communiqué from fellow Autobot [[Diver (G1)|Diver]] informing him of a Decepticon attack on a cruise ship. Realizing that the villains had escaped their imprisonment at last, Metalhawk knew that the time had come to fight once again. Concerned for Shūta's safety, he elected to at last reveal his true identity to the boy, and told him the full story of the Pretenders' history on Earth. The next day, news of another Decepticon attack on a city reached Metalhawk, and he at last dropped his Pretender disguise, transforming back into his robotic form again and flying to the scene in [[alternate mode|jet mode]]. The [[Tentakil (Masterforce)|Tentakil]] [[Seacon (Masterforce)|Seacons]] which confronted him were not particularly impressive opponents, but things took a turn for the worse when Shūta, who had followed Metalhawk to the battlefield, was captured by one of the creatures. Metalhawk was able to destroy one of the drones with his Titanium Saber, but as he moved on the second, the Decepticon Pretenders entered the fray and attacked the outnumbered Autobot. Luckily, the other Autobot Pretenders arrived to save Metalhawk, allow him to rescue Shūta and destroy the Seacon, prompting the Decepticons to flee. {{storylink|Rise Up!! Pretenders}}

While investigating Decepticon activity in the [[Karin Islands]], Metalhawk battled [[Dauros]] and a swarm of [[Lobclaw]] Seacons. The fight, however, was witnessed by the islands' prince, [[Cab (human)|Cab]], who fled from the Autobot, and was followed by Shūta, who hoped to explain the situation. Calmed by Shūta, Cab tracked the Decepticons to the nearby "Isle of the Gods," and Metalhawk and the Autobots followed him there and successfully dispatched the Decepticons. Unfortunately, during their absence, [[Blood]] had attacked Professor Gō's observatory, and Metalhawk's team returned too late to save the professor's life. With his last breath, the professor handed the key to the base he had created to Shūta, and the Autobots took up residence there. {{storylink|Terror! The Decepticons' Manhunt}}

Seeking to capture [[Blanieux|Professor Blanieux]], the prize-winning biologist from the Republic of [[Mont Parta]], the Decepticons attacked a jumbo jet, which crashed in Corsica. Metalhawk headed out with the Autobots to investigate, and posed as a government investigator in order to question [[Minerva (human)|Minerva]], daughter of Mont Parta's ambassador to Japan. After learning what they could from her, Metalhawk and the Autobots sped to Rome to quell an attack by the Decepticons' [[Destroid]]s there, and then accompanied Minerva's family and Professor Blanieux on the last leg of their trip to Japan. Metalhawk's suspicions proved right, as Blood and some [[Overbite (Masterforce)|Overbite]] Seacons attacked the craft, and he and [[Phoenix (G1)|Phoenix]] engaged them in battle and defeated them. The true threat, however, was a Destroid [[stewardess]] planted aboard the plane, which was bested by Cab and Shūta, but not before it sent the jet into a nosedive. Metalhawk and Phoenix saved the jet by lifting it to safety on their own backs. The Autobots apologized for lying to Minerva, and she decided to attend the [[International School]] alongside Cab and Shūta. {{storylink|Kidnapping!? The Targeted Jumbo Jet}}

[[File:Metalhawk pretender.jpg|thumb|Awl beh bawk.]]
Seeing Shūta, Cab and Minerva's determination to aid the Autobot cause and battle the Decepticons, Metalhawk made them an offer to become true Autobot warriors. The three kids accepted and were bonded to the Transtectors sent by the space-faring Autobots, becoming [[Headmaster Junior]]s. Alas, the Decepticons had created their own Headmaster Juniors with the Transtectors they had stolen, and Metalhawk had to teach the Autobot Juniors to put rescuing humans before fighting their villainous counterparts. Shūta, in particular, had some trouble living up to the promise when all three Decepticon Juniors ganged up on him when he was attempting to save a baby from a burning building, but Metalhawk arrived to dispatch the three punks. {{storylink|Birth! Headmaster Jrs|Birth! Headmaster Jrs}} To prepare the Juniors for combat situations, Metalhawk then sent them to America to train with Diver, {{storylink|Rage!! Little Devils with No Need for Rules}} and when they returned, he led them and the other Autobots in defending Africa's wildlife against another Decepticon plot. {{storylink|Panic! Protect the Wild Animals!!}}

[[File:Metalhawk puretendaaaaa.jpg|thumb|left|, so shiny!]]
When two new Decepticons, the [[Godmaster (lifeform)|Godmaster]] brothers [[Hydra (G1)|Hydra]] and [[Buster (G1)|Buster]], attacked the [[Mt Fuji Foothills Hang Gliding Competition Tournament]] in which the Autobot Headmaster Juniors were participating, Metalhawk and [[Lander]] raced to aid their young teammates, but took a severe beating from the powerful new warriors. After the villains withdrew upon the arrival of Phoenix, {{storylink|Super Warriors - The Godmaster Brothers|Super Warriors - The Godmaster Brothers}} Metalhawk examined videotaped footage of the battle and realized that the two Decepticons had incredible, instantaneous healing powers, proving his suspicion that they were neither Transformer nor human, but some new kind of lifeform. This information didn't offer the Autobots much of an advantage in their next battle with the Godmasters in the Karin Islands, but during that fight, Metalhawk was able to use his Shining Arrow attack to distract Buster, allowing Diver to lodge his Sea Axe in the Decepticon's arm, forcing the brothers to retreat. {{storylink|A Fierce Battle!! The Autobots Are in Trouble}}

When Diver recruited the first Autobot Godmaster, a trucker named [[Ginrai (human)|Ginrai]], in America, Metalhawk invited him to the Autobots' base in Japan where they studied the three sets of [[Master-Brace]]s Ginrai had found in his [[Transtector]]. {{storylink|A Strange Friendship: Cancer and Minerva|A Strange Friendship: Cancer and Minerva}} After helping Minerva to reconcile her differences with Ginrai after she had an argument with him, Metalhawk joined in another battle against Hydra and Buster at Mount Yatsugatake {{storylink|Friend or Foe!? The True Form of the Monster!!}} and helped the other Autobots rescue a group of captive children from the Decepticons' clutches. {{storylink|Heroism!! The Birth of Super Ginrai}}

As summer settled in, Metalhawk permitted the Headmaster Juniors to take a vacation from their duties, but the two objectives soon dovetailed with the discovery of the next Autobot Godmaster, [[Lightfoot (G1)|Lightfoot]]. {{storylink|Lightfoot: A Dramatic Encounter}} Metalhawk and the Juniors, together with Lander, Ginrai and Lightfoot went on a camping expedition into the Rocky Mountains to search for leads on the next Godmaster, ultimately discovering that he was a forest patrolman named [[Ranger]]. {{storylink|An Enemy? The Third Godmaster, Ranger}} Metalhawk thought the final Godmaster had been found when he misinterpreted a news report on [[Sixknight]] {{storylink|A Powerful Foe!! Sixknight the Wanderer}} but the true Godmaster, [[Road King]], was soon found, at which point Metalhawk decided to step down as Autobot leader, and appointed Ginrai to command in his place. {{storylink|The Autobot Warrior, Sixknight?!}}

Soon thereafter, word came from the Autobots in space that the Decepticon super-weapon, [[Scorponok (G1)|BlackZarak]], was headed for Earth. Metalhawk, Diver and Lander met with their old comrade [[Grand Maximus]] atop a mountain, and were given the plans and materials necessary to construct "[[Godbomber]]", a drone that would merge with Ginrai, endowing him with the ability to fly and fight in space, allowing him to best BlackZarak before he reached the Earth. {{storylink|Life? Death? The Desperate Lightfoot}} Metalhawk elected to keep the construction of Godbomber secret from the Headmaster Juniors at first, but once this "Bomber Project" began in a [[British Motors]] factory donated by Lightfoot's father, he soon summoned them to the facility and told them the whole story. {{storylink|Super Ginrai Gets Blown Away in the Desert!?}} The course of the Bomber Project did not run smoothly, as the Decepticons badly injured Ginrai and attacked the facility, but through it all, Metalhawk remained at the forefront of construction, speeding the project to completion while his fellow Autobots handled the Decepticon threat. {{storylink|Will the Bomber Project Be Destroyed!?}} Although Godbomber was soon successfully completed, Metalhawk was unwilling to let the injured Ginrai combine with the drone, telling him that he could not save the Earth on his own. The support of the Pretenders and Headmaster Juniors drowned Metalhawk out, however, and Ginrai fused with Godbomber, speeding into space to battle BlackZarak and [[Overlord (G1)|Overlord]]. {{storylink|God Ginrai - Into the Sky!!}} Like the other Autobots, Metalhawk was helpless to do anything but wait for updates on the battle down on Earth, but with the aid of Grand Maximus, Ginrai was able to triumph. {{storylink|God Ginrai - Showdown on the Surface of the Moon}}

[[File:Metalhawk robot.jpg|upright=1.4|thumb|Buns of die-cast.]]
Subsequently, Metalhawk and his fellow took something of a back seat as Ginrai and the other Autobots battled the Decepticons across the Earth, but his wits were not dulled by this period of inactivity, and he was quick to suspect [[Clouder]], the newly discovered final Autobot Godmaster, when he discovered that the main computer in the Autobot base had been tampered with. Although Minerva took the blame, Metalhawk could tell she was covering for her new friend, and his suspicions were soon proved correct when he caught Clouder handing over information on the base to the Decepticon Headmaster Juniors. Unfortunately, exposing Clouder's true nature as a Decepticon spy did not prevent the information he had stolen from making its way into the hands of the Decepticons, who soon launched a full-scale assault on the Autobot base. {{storylink|Secret Orders! Destroy the Autobot Base!!}} A missile strike on the base's control room knocked Metalhawk unconscious, leaving the Headmaster Juniors alone in the base. After hooking Metalhawk up to some medical equipment, Minerva advocated abandoning the base, and ultimately, the Autobots were forced to do just that, as the Decepticons' attack destroyed their headquarters. {{storylink|Disaster! The Autobot Base Explodes}}

In the wake of this disaster, things only got worse for the Autobots, as BlackZarak returned and successfully landed on Earth. Metalhawk arrived too late to save [[New York City|New York]] from the villain's wrath, and soon received word from Diver of an attack on [[Paris]] by Overlord, relaying news of the devastation to Lightfoot. {{storylink|BlackZarak - Destroyer from Space}} The battle that ensued carried the Godmasters and Headmaster Juniors into space, where BlackZarak unleashed the unholy [[Death Para-Machine]] upon the Earth. Metalhawk was stationed in a human observatory at the time, where the staff quickly deduced that the evil device had drastically eroded Earth's ozone layer. Thankfully, Ginrai was able to destroy the Death Para-Machine before any further damage could be done. {{storylink|Crisis! The Day of Human Extinction}}

Following a battle with the Decepticon Pretenders in Latin America, {{storylink|God Ginrai - Save Cancer!?}} Metalhawk got a bit more proactive, positioning sonar probes across the world in hopes of locating the Decepticon base. Unfortunately, while on a mission to recover one of the probes, Shūta was kidnapped by the Decepticons, and Metalhawk had to triangulate the location of the Decepticon base in order for Ginrai to rescue him. {{storylink|God Ginrai: Showdown at the Decepticon Base}} With the location of the Decepticons' base now known to the Autobots, Metalhawk and the Pretenders hung back while the rest of their allies initiated an all-out attack on the villains' headquarters, which concluded with the base's destruction. {{storylink|The Ultimate Combination!! BlackZarak, the New Lifeform}}

With their headquarters destroyed, the Decepticons relocated to the Alps, and the Autobots pursued, splitting into teams to search for the villains. Metalhawk and the Headmaster Juniors were quickly attacked by [[King Poseidon]], and Metalhawk was badly wounded saving Minerva from the Seacon combiner's blasts. Ginrai soon arrived to save them, but the injured quartet was forced to remain behind as Ginrai scaled the mountain to confront BlackZarak in final battle. {{storylink|Malevolent and Inhuman! The True Form of Devil Z}} After his wounds were tended to by Minerva, Metalhawk was insistent that he be allowed to accompany Grand Maximus and Shūta as they went to observe Ginrai's battle, but Grand talked him down and left him to recuperate. Ginrai's fight, meanwhile, culminated with the destruction of BlackZarak and the Decepticon emperor, [[Devil Z]]. The death of Devil Z caused the humans to become separated from their Transtectors, while the Transtectors themselves were brought to life as true super-robot lifeforms. The new-born Transformers all promptly departed the Earth to rejoin their respective factions in space, but Metalhawk elected to remain on Earth and continue his life there. {{storylink|A Battle... and Then...}}

After escaping their imprisonment, the Decepticon Pretenders made their first attack on the modern world by laying siege to the Karin Islands. Metalhawk and Shūta responded to the attack, and Metalhawk stunned the assembled islanders by transforming from human form to robot mode. Easily evading Blood's "Bloody Moon" attack, Metalhawk dispatched the Decepticons with his Shining Arrow, and island elder [[Donq]] proceeded to lead the islanders in praising Metalhawk, recognizing him as a god from Karin Island mythology. Metalhawk attempted to explain that he wasn't a god, merely a Pretender, but the islanders continued to chant "Pretender" despite his protests. {{storylink|Gods? Demons? The Pretenders}}

Metalhawk and Shūta were accompanied back to Japan by the islands' prince, Cab, and the two boys, along with their schoolmate Minerva, all requested that Metalhawk allow them to become formal members of the Autobots. Metalhawk eventually capitulated, and after a tough training regimen, transformed the three youngsters into Headmaster Juniors. Their first battle, against a Lobclaw, did not go so well, and Metalhawk had to arrive to bail them out, admonishing them for a lack of teamwork. {{storylink|The Birth of the Junior Headmasters}}

Responding to an attack by Blood on [[Tokyo]], Metalhawk called on the Headmaster Juniors to perform rescue operations in the surrounding area. Unfortunately, Metalhawk did not realize that this was a trap laid by the Decepticons, and his young charges ran afoul of the Decepticon Headmaster Juniors. Thankfully, they were able to defeat them, and Metalhawk arrived in time to see the punks fleeing the scene. As the sun began to rise, Shūta and Cab groaned that it would soon be time for school, but Metalhawk calmed them down by pointing out it was Sunday. {{storylink|The Battle of Destiny - Children of Good and Evil}}

News of the discovery of the first Autobot Godmaster, [[Ginrai (human)|Ginrai]], in America soon reached Metalhawk, and he and the Headmaster Juniors gathered at Harumi Wharf to greet their new comrade when he arrived. Concerned by Ginrai's late arrival, Metalhawk contacted Diver, but was assured that everything would be fine, because Ginrai resembled a "hero". The four Autobots were soon attacked by the Decepticon Godmasters Hydra and Buster and Metalhawk was quickly taken down, but at that moment, Ginrai arrived, and Metalhawk understood Diver's words—for Ginrai was the very image of the legendary [[Optimus Prime (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Optimus Prime]]. After Ginrai sent Hydra and Buster packing, Metalhawk wondered if Ginrai could be Prime's reincarnation, but Ginrai dismissed the notion, explaining that he had chosen to do this specifically because he had only one life to live, and wanted to use it in service of the forces of good. {{storylink|On Scene! Our Savior's Name Is Ginrai!}}

[[File:Metalhawk shell manga.jpg|upright=1.15|thumb|left|Metalhawk wants YOU!]]
Later, Metalhawk joined with the other Autobots in charging out to investigate a mysterious Decepticon plot, only to be stunned by the sight of [[Galvatron (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Galvatron]] and a legion of legendary Decepticons barring their way. Metalhawk could immediately tell that something was off, since he knew that Galvatron was supposed to be dead, but after a battle with King Poseidon, it was soon revealed that they had been duped with holographic images. {{storylink|Burn, Chokon! New Commander Super Ginrai!}}

In unison with the spacebound Autobots, the Earthbound Autobots started the [[Godbomber|Bomber Project]], with [[Chromedome (G1)|Chromedome]] personally assisting. When [[Jin (Masterforce)|Jin]] and [[Mirai]] appeared to threaten the project, Metalhawk and Chromedome set out to defend it, only to be defeated when the two "Getmasters" combined with the mysteriously appearing [[Megatron (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Super Megatron]]. A quick rescue by Chromedome's Headmaster comrades with the Godcannon managed to chase away the [[Decepticon]], who left behind the humans. Later, Metalhawk saw the redeemed pair enjoying Christmas festivities and bade them to care for one another. {{Storylink|Headmasters VS Masterforce}} After this, Metalhawk and the Pretenders monitored a two-pronged attack by the Decepticons against Earth. {{storylink|God Ginrai's Amazing Divine Combination!}}

They returned to the front lines during Ginrai's final battle with the Decepticons, during which the Decepticon emperor, Devil Z, turned on his subordinates, and attempted to absorb their [[Chōkon Power|Jinchōkon]] in order to transform himself into the ultimate lifeform. Metalhawk and the Pretenders hurled themselves into the path of the villain's Jinchōkon-absorbing beam, saving Ginrai and the Decepticons from its effects, and remaining unharmed themselves, since, as true robots, they possessed no Jinchōkon of their own. Metalhawk subsequently joined with all the other Autobots and Decepticons in combining their energies into the "Perfect Transform Attack", which destroyed Devil Z once and for all. With the alien's death, the humans were separated from their Transtectors, and the Transtectors themselves were brought to life as true super-robot lifeforms. While the new-born Transformers departed Earth to rejoin their respective factions in space, Metalhawk elected to remain on Earth and continue his life there. {{storylink|The Birth of the Super Life-Forms}}

[[Dreadwind (G1)|Dreadwind]] had never heard of Metalhawk. {{storylink|End of the Road! (UK)#Notes|Dread Tidings}}

===''Wings Universe''===
Before the War, Metalhawk served aboard a cargo vessel known as the ''[[Starduster]]''. Hearing about the newly formed [[Elite Guard]], Metalhawk resigned his commission and entered the [[Autobot Military Academy]], eager to serve his planet. Thanks in part to his impressive knowledge of alien martial arts techniques, 'Hawk rose quickly through the ranks and, in just under two cycles, became the faster recruit to advance to command status. He also underwent the flying upgrade process, taking to the air with natural ease. Metalhawk's friendly demeanor and skills earned him the respect and admiration of his men and fellow command officers, even the normally unapproachable [[Halonix Maximus]]. {{storylink|Hasbro Transformers Collectors' Club issue 34|Metalhawk's profile in Club magazine #34}}

[[File:Metalhawk TheComingStorm2.jpg|thumb|upright=1.67|left|Sometimes he wears a helmet over his helmet.]]
Metalhawk received command of the 201st division, the Strike Team. During one of the Guard's battles, Metalhawk's squad found themselves facing a horde of [[Virulent Clone]]s along with [[Thunder Clash]]'s squad. He was just a little peeved when his subordinate [[Ironfist (G1)|Ironfist]]'s explosives nearly took them out along with the Clones. When it turned out that the Clones could also ''fly'', Metalhawk ordered another squadmate, [[Over-Run (G1)|Over-Run]], to provide them with some aerial support.

[[Landshark (G1)|Landshark]] hoped to see the two "upgrades" show off their new flying abilities, but Over-Run took out the Clones with his personal remotely-controlled helicopter instead. The two squads then relaxed for a moment, with Metalhawk removing his helmet and chest armor while chit-chatting with Thunder Clash.

Their chit-chat was soon interrupted, however, by a call from [[Magnum]] ordering Metalhawk to escort Thunder Clash's squad to [[Space Port Bravo]]. After giving Thunder Clash a bit of friendly teasing, the two squads loaded up their gear onto the ''[[Hawk's Claw]]'' and disembarked. Once they arrived at the spaceport, the two squads' leaders bid their goodbyes to each other, and Thunder Clash's squad headed inside.

Upon being asked by Over-Run what he thought their next assignment would be, Metalhawk expressed a hope for something quiet. He was amused by Dion's teasing about how ''he'' would be happy to beat up some Decepticons, but was displeased by Over-Run's snide question about whether Dion had ever seen a Decepticon up-close, and troubled by Dion stalking off in response.

They eventually headed over to Elite Guard HQ. There they were greeted by Magnum, who noted that he thought Metalhawk's squad was performing above expectations, and sometimes even better than Thunder Clash's squad at that—which Metalhawk was all too happy to note for his and Thunder Clash's "boasting contest". Magnum then explained that, as a result, he was sending Metalhawk's squad on a special mission—one that would involve a [[Combaticon (G1)|new special ops group]] Magnum had formed. {{storylink|The Coming Storm: Part 2}}

This mission was supposed to be an oilcake-walk, a gesture of good will towards the civilian guilds to keep them from interfering too seriously in Elite Guard operations. An archeological dig in [[Median]] had uncovered a number of relics from Cybertron's forgotten history and, according to their civilian guest [[Alpha Trion (G1)|Alpha Trion]], some expertise with explosives and demolition was needed to help clear out the dig site. Hardly enthused with the assignment, Metalhawk nonetheless did Magnum proud and very diplomatically told Alpha Trion they would be honored to assist his team of scientists, in the name of Cybertron and the Elite Guard.

[[File:ComingStorm3-Metalhawk.jpg|thumb|Autobots can't fly!]]

Lending aid to Median turned out to be less simple than they expected. The team led by [[Glyph (Universe)|Glyph]] and [[Flip Sides (G1)|Flipsides]] had unearthed a powerful artifact called the [[Heart of the Dragon]], and were expecting to be attacked by Decepticon raiders within a few solar cycles. Thank [[the One]] for good intel. Metalhawk and the Combaticon leader [[Onslaught (G1)|Onslaught]] quickly began working to fortify Median, alongside the dig team's security chief, [[Strika (BM)|Strika]]. They arranged several traps and pitfalls for the [[Stormtrooper (G1)|Stormtrooper]]s and their advance guard, and set up to greet their inevitable foes.

The groups separated for the assault, with Metalhawk and most of his team with [[Blast Off (G1)|Blast Off]] and [[Swindle (G1)|Swindle]] as Squad B, while Ironfist joined Strika, Onslaught and the Combaticons. After Squad A dealt with the Stormtroopers' "hitter", [[Roadgrabber]], they fell back for Metalhawk's group to oppose the next wave. Metalhawk used their scientist recruit [[Lancer]] as a decoy, drawing [[Rage (G1)|Rage]] and his Stormtroopers into a snare. Unfortunately, he then made several mistakes in a row. Firstly, he gave the Decepticons an honest chance at surrender. Secondly, he didn't take Rage's chemical cannon seriously. And thirdly, he didn't anticipate that the fuzzy...the fuzzy p-petro-rabbits tasted like...yellow...grishy boushy vroom vroom...

By the time Metalhawk recovered from the chemically induced stasis lock, the battle was basically over and the Decepticons had successfully stolen the Heart of the Dragon. The Elite Guard began pursuit, and tracked the Stormtroopers back to their mobile fortress, the [[Metrotitan (G1)|Metrotitan]]. They made their way past the boastful bash brothers, [[Terror-Tread]] and [[Cement-Head]], the menacing [[Minotoron]]s, and the bombastic [[Brimstone (G1 Decepticon)|Brimstone]], empowered by the Heart of the Dragon itself. The Heart proved to be too much for his tiny frame, however, unleashing an explosion of such indescribable power that the Elite Guard, the Metrotitan, and everything in a 50 hic radius was consumed in a fiery inferno and consigned to the Pit.

...or so Metalhawk's incident report read. In fact, the Elite Guard survived and made their way to safety with a new recruit, the former Stormtrooper [[Drench (G1)|Drench]]. Artistic license aside, Magnum congratulated Metalhawk and Onslaught on a job well done. The two teams were almost immediately reassigned to another mission in [[Praxium]]. {{storylink|Flames of Yesterday}}

[[File:ComingStorm5-Metalhawkjet.jpg|thumb|left|Autobots can't fl—dammit, Metalhawk, cut that out!]]

As time passed, Metalhawk's team and the Combaticons continued to work in close proximity with each other, developing a strong bond. Metalhawk and Onslaught even got into a habit of exchanging war stories, like the one about [[Thunderwing (G1)|Thunderwing]]'s failed grenade, or the amusing fate of [[Blue Bacchus]]. They separated after a mission against [[Shadowcaster]], as Metalhawk's strike team reported back to Magnum while the Combaticons remained in the field. {{storylink|The Coming Storm: Part 3}}

[[File:ComingStorm6-isthatso.jpg|thumb|upright=1.5|The helmet wasn't lonely. He had all this other armor, too. Look how well it served him.]]

When the Combaticons never returned from the field, they were listed as MIA and potential casualties. Magnum reassigned Metalhawk and the 201st away from the front lines, fearing emotion over the loss of his comrades might cloud his judgement. {{storylink|A Team Effort}} While on a tedious search for possible Decepticon activity in the wastelands, Metalhawk and the Strike Team received an SOS from Elite Guard Headquarters—Sentinel Major was under attack! They raced back to base but found the rest of the Elite Guard had succeeded in disabling most of the attackers. Surprisingly, the ''Combaticons'' were among the Decepticon warriors left standing. They apparently chose to switch sides after being captured, and worse, were altered by [[Deathsaurus (G1)|Deathsaurus]]'s technology. As Metalhawk watched aghast over [[Ricochet (Timelines)|Ricochet]]'s holo-imager, the Combaticons merged to form [[Bruticus (G1)|Bruticus]], destroying Sentinel Major with one fist as the battle began anew. {{storylink|The Coming Storm: Part 5}}

Racing to the side of their fellow Guardsmen, Metalhawk's team arrived at a scene of carnage, as Bruticus obliterated all opposition in his path. Over-Run and Ironfist fell in battle alongside the rest of the Guard. The crazed giant was only halted when Dion boosted into Bruticus's face and blew out his optics. Dion was swatted away from the battlefield, but the damage was enough to force the Combaticons to revert to their individual forms. As Onslaught and his comrades prepared to return to Deathsaurus for repairs before heading out after Magnum and the council, Metalhawk placed himself in his former friends' path, bravely ordering them to stand down. Metalhawk got into trouble at Median for giving his foes an honorable chance to surrender, and this was no different. After a moment's hesitation, Onslaught drew on his friend and fellow soldier, gunning Metalhawk down in cold blood. {{storylink|The Coming Storm: Part 6}}

[[File:Drift1-Metalhawk.jpg|left|thumb|upright=1.67|Wonder why he left.]]
Metalhawk and [[Sunstreaker (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Sunstreaker]] were two survivors of the Autobots' battle with [[Drift (G1)|Deadlock]]'s forces on [[Dabola]]. {{storylink|Drift issue 1|Drift #1}} The massacre caused him to despise [[Turmoil]], the Decepticons' commander, but he refused to be consumed by anger and become a killer. {{storylink|Interference Patterns}} Inspired by the [[Circle of Light]], he instead abandoned the [[Great War (G1)|war]] and left [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]] with many others, feeling that although the [[Senate]] was corrupt, the Autobots and Decepticons' war was no better. {{storylink|Transformers: The Death of Optimus Prime|The Death of Optimus Prime}} His group settled in a region that allowed them to use [[Shanix]] as currency. {{storylink|Stick Together}}

[[File:DoOP Optimus Metalhawk.jpg|thumb|upright=1.9|Metalhawk has spent the last few millennia on a hunger strike.]]
More than 2,600 years later, Metalhawk returned to Cybertron. In the aftermath of [[D-Void]]'s attack on the planet, he arrived as part of the first wave of [[NAIL]]s, and served as their de facto representative in negotiations with [[Autobot High Command]]. When [[Optimus Prime (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Optimus Prime]] returned after his short disappearance following the battle with the Darkness, Metalhawk had some choice words for the "hero". Behind the scenes, Metalhawk admitted to [[Zetca]] that he understood how the Autobots felt, but he still wished to maneuver them into a situation he felt was better for the future of Cybertron.

Soon, the returning NAILs grew frustrated with the Autobots' "occupation" of Cybertron, and they began rioting outside their headquarters. When the Autobots let the imprisoned Decepticons loose to enforce crowd control, Metalhawk was hit in the crossfire. Optimus Prime ordered [[Sideswipe (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Sideswipe]] to bring him inside. As tempers flared amongst the Autobots, with Metalhawk's presence inflaming things even further, Optimus Prime decided that (as a living symbol of the war) he should leave Cybertron. {{storylink|Transformers: The Death of Optimus Prime|The Death of Optimus Prime}} Metalhawk and [[Bumblebee (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Bumblebee]] later greeted some NAILS who arrived on Cybertron. [[Hipotank]] stated that the planet attacked them and Metalhawk took this as an advantage to convince them the Autobots weren't trustworthy. Metalhawk later talked about Tappet's release and the ''[[Lost Light]]'' memorial. {{storylink|The Autonomy Lesson (issue)|The Autonomy Lesson}} Metalhawk and Bumblebee later discussed the [[Horri-Bull]] incident and said he will not endorse Bumblebee if he harmed another Cybertronian—no matter what kind. He was interrupted by the arrival of [[Starscream (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Starscream]]. Later, during the ''Lost Light'' memorial, Metalhawk pledged his devotion to a new Cybertron. {{storylink|The World & Everything in It}} When mysterious explosions issued from all around Cybertron, Metalhawk rebuked [[Prowl (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Prowl]]'s blaming of the Decepticons and vouched for allowing Starscream to take part in the interim government. {{storylink|Stick Together}} Bumblebee, Metalhawk, and Starscream held a speech on their government though Starscream did most of the talking, much to Bumblebee's disagreement on most of his statements. {{storylink|Devisive}}

[[File:ABetterTomorrow-reputation.jpg|thumb|left|upright=1.6|"Hi, Screamer. Hi, Fatso."]]
Later, Metalhawk went to greet a [[Sky-Byte (RID)|new arrival]] and introduced him to the NAILs after Starscream left him in Metalhawk's hands. There, Sky-Byte learned of recent events from [[Zetca]]. {{storylink|A Better Tomorrow}} Later, when the Decepticon captain, [[Turmoil]], had landed on Cybertron and revealed himself, Metalhawk changed his original decision of sparing the ship and told them to kill Turmoil due [[Drift issue 1|the disaster that happened because of him]]. Turmoil then informed everyone that it had been the then Decepticon, now Autobot known as Drift's work. Starscream later took Metalhawk to [[Maccadam's Old Oil House]] to talk to the bartender, [[Blurr (G1)|Blurr]] about his experience with Turmoil. When [[Wheeljack (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Wheeljack]] got caught sneaking around in the ship, Metalhawk rescued him from Turmoil's forces and once they had escaped, he ordered the Autobot forces surrounding the ship to move in and capture the Decepticons. {{storylink|Interference Patterns}}

[[File:Metalhawk and Omega Supreme Primus All Good Things.jpg|thumb|upright=1.3]]
Metalhawk later confronted Bumblebee at Autobot High Command alongside Starscream, inquiring as to when free elections were finally going to begin. When Bumblebee promised to have elections once the Autobots were ready, the pair begrudgingly left. {{storylink|Dinobot Hunt (IDW)|Dinobot Hunt}} Later that night, Metalhawk and Starscream went to Wheeljack's lab to check up on how he had been recovering, and offered Bumblebee their assistance in finding [[Ironhide (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Ironhide]] and the [[Dinobot (G1)|Dinobots]] after they had gone missing in the wilderness. Bumblebee argued that the two would just get in the way of the Autobots' own rescue efforts, and Metalhawk expressed his doubts at Starscream's claim that Bumblebee just didn't want them looking in case one of them found the missing Autobots and increased their chances of winning the election. {{storylink|Night and the City}}

The next morning, while searching for Ironhide's wayward team, Metalhawk and Starscream came across Blurr, who was also looking for the team. Metalhawk was saddened that Bumblebee had indeed apparently not wanted he or Starscream to find Ironhide and the Dinobots, and went to help Blurr when he was caught in a blast. Blurr refused to share what was in the hole he had found, and Metawlhawk watched solemnly as Prowl, Sideswipe, and Wheeljack arrived to investigate and continued to keep what Blurr had found off-limits. Later on, after Starscream called in several NAILs and Decepticons to the area to pressure the Autobots into telling them what was underground, Metalhawk followed them all inside to the ruins of the ancient [[Crystal City]] and witnessed a [[Titan (group)|Titan]] declare Starscream to be the "conqueror" destined to unite all Cybertronians. After fleeing the city's destruction and arriving back in [[Iacon (polity)|Iacon]], a contemplative Metalhawk found himself unable to join in the celebration over his friend's apparent destiny. He was then surprised to find himself approached by [[Omega Supreme (G1)|Omega Supreme]], who told Metalhawk of how he knew the Titan and conversed with the NAIL representative on its last words. When Omega speculated that the Titan had actually returned to pose questions in Cybertronians' minds about their species' destiny and perhaps force them to change, Metalhawk came to the realization that change is something brought about by the individual, and perhaps he could bring it about for Cybertron. {{storylink|Primus: All Good Things|All Good Things}}

[[File:TheEndOfTheBeginningOfTheWorld MetalhawkDefends.jpg|thumb|left|upright=1.4|IDW's ''[[The Transformers: Robots in Disguise|Robots in Disguise]]'' Season 1, folks.]]
Metalhawk later visited Starscream and tried to convince the schemer that the Titan's words had greater implications than just facilitating the seeker's ambitions. Starscream dismissed this interpretation as nonsense, making it clear that he saw the prophecy as a means to fulfill his own ends. The brief conversation was interrupted by a huge explosion with Omega Supreme at the centre. Starscream was frustrated at the inconvenient timing of this and flew off to the scene before Metalhawk could determine what he knew. Metalhawk quickly followed and discussed the implications with the Autobot responders. When a crowd of NAILs started to blame Starscream, Metalhawk tried to defend the Decepticon only to be lambasted by an angry Bumblebee. Metalhawk managed to calm Bumblebee by telling him that he trusted the Autobot leader to carry out a fair investigation, though he managed to make his distrust of Prowl and his methods clear too. When Prowl responded angrily to the accusation, Metalhawk made his disdain for him quite clear, stating he did not want to turn into another [[Ratbat (G1)|Ratbat]] and that he was willing to serve the city if that was what was needed. This statement was picked up by the news services leading [[Swindle (G1)|some]] to speculate on Metalhawk's own political manoeuvring. However, such considerations had to be put aside when soon after [[Megatron (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Megatron]] returned. {{storylink|The End of the Beginning of the World}}

[[File:TheVerge MetalhawkJetMode.jpg|thumb|upright=0.9|Moonlights as Wonder Woman's Highly-Visible Plane.]]
Starscream alerted everyone to his former leader's approach and Metalhawk joined a large force of Autobots who went to intercept him. Metalhawk watched as, in spite Megatron's peaceful claims, the Autobots opened fire on their nemesis. [[Needlenose (G1)|Needlenose]] managed to stop the Autobots, claiming that Megatron was no longer a threat. When Starscream retorted that Megatron is always a threat, Metalhawk agreed but pointed out that Starscream was motivated by his own desire for leadership. Once Megatron was taken into custody, Metalhawk bemoaned the likely fate of the NAILs if hostilities were to resume. Initially annoyed, Bumblebee soon agreed and together with Wheeljack the three realised that there had been some strategy at play with big hitters from both factions being recently removed. Considering who could be behind such a plot, Metalhawk's first instinct was to accuse his friend, Starscream. {{storylink|City on Fire}}

As the city descended into violence and revolt, Bumblebee seemed powerless to take control. Metalhawk urged him to stop shouting at the situation and told him though his [[spark]] was in the right place, that counted for little. Bumblebee agreed and they resolved that things would change if they could get through this crisis. Bumblebee acknowledged the need for prompt elections and conceded that Metalhawk would likely win due to the NAIL majority, a majority that could be mobilised to quell the rioting. Bumblebee urged Metalhawk to go to Maccadam's and broadcast a rallying cry to the NAILs. Upon arriving, Metalhawk got [[Circuit (G1)|Circuit]] to relay a message of hope and unity to the populace; encouraging them stand against factionalism, violence and hatred. {{storylink|The Verge}}

Metalhawk's impassioned speech done, Circuit asked him how it might affect the election. The NAIL leader tried to brush aside the implication but was soon left hanging as the news service had found a bigger story to cover. On the comm, Bumblebee explained that there had been a breakout at the prison holding Megatron and that Starscream was present. Metalhawk was concerned that the two Decepticons would join forces but Blurr interrupted with information implicating Prowl. Looking for answers, the Autobots and Metalhawk converged on Prowl's quarters. Upon arrival they were surprised by [[Astrotrain (G1)|Astrotrain]] and [[Blitzwing (G1)|Blitzwing]], the latter managing to hit and injure Metalhawk. Bumblebee helped the wounded bot into the cover of the [[Black Room]], only to be confronted by a large contingent of supposedly dead Decepticons and their ally Prowl holding Wheeljack and Starscream prisoner. Initially accusing Starscream of causing the current chaos, Metalhawk soon accepted that Prowl had been to blame all along. Megatron then entered and revealed the truth; that Prowl had been mind controlled by [[Bombshell (G1)|Bombshell]] to manipulate events in the Decepticons favour. Metalhawk was forced to watch on helplessly as the modified Prowl combined with the [[Constructicon (G1)|Constructicons]] to form [[Devastator (G1)|Devastator]] and Megatron crushed Bumblebee's head. {{storylink|Before the Dawn}}

[[File:HeavyIsTheHead StarscreamKillsMetalhawk.jpg|left|thumb|upright=1.5|Curse your sudden-slash-inevitable betrayal!]]
As Devastator attacked the city, Metalhawk and Bumblebee remained captive until [[Arcee (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Arcee]] showed her true colors and rescued them. Barely able to speak, Metalhawk encouraged Bumblebee to go and save Starscream finally believing that all three of them had stood together for something important. {{storylink|Plan for Everything}} Metalhawk fought with the Autobots in an attempt to rescue his friend. While Bumblebee concentrated on Megatron, the NAIL leader went alone to save a shocked Starscream, successfully defending the Decepticon from Astrotrain before Turmoil shot his left arm off. Already in a weakened state there was nothing Metalhawk could do, but Starscream, ever the opportunist, used Metalhawk's severed arm to attack Turmoil, cutting off his cannon arm and slicing his head open. Elsewhere Devastator had been neutralized and Bumblebee managed to disable Megatron. The battle over, Metalhawk explained to Starscream that he had rescued him because he believed the Seeker could grow to accept the responsibility placed on him by the Titan's words, rather than seeing them as a chance to get ahead. Unfortunately, Metalhawk had misjudged the Decepticon, who saw another opportunity to further his own cause. Lifting Turmoil's cannon, Starscream aimed it at his former ally and, to the NAIL's disappointment, killed him with a single shot through the spark. The opportunist then used the apparent death of his friend at the hands of a faction-related battle to implore the population of the city to follow him into a new era. Using Metalhawk's words, he claimed he had accepted the responsibility handed to him by the Titan, removed his [[insignia]], renounced factions and encouraged all others to do the same. Spurred on by Starscream's impassioned words, Metalhawk's former supporters accepted Starscream as leader and turned on the Autobots.
{{storylink|Heavy Is the Head}} {{storylink|Second Exodus}}

Starscream later apologised to Metalhawk's dead body, thanking him for his advice and explaining that he wasn't used to having friends. In the end though, while he was sorry for killing him, it really was in the greater good, which apparently is OK then. {{storylink|Three Monologues}}

Starscream paid another visit to Metalhawk's body to mull over the appearance of a [[Quintessa (IDW)|Titan]]. A wave of energy unleashed by said Titan abruptly returned Metalhawk to life, and after kicking Starscream around a bit, he grabbed the imprisoned Megatron and took the former Decepticon leader to [[Shockwave (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Shockwave]]. {{storylink|Winners & Losers: Dark Cybertron Chapter 3|Winners & Losers}} He stood by Shockwave as the Decepticon used the [[space bridge]] in Megatron to link to the [[Dead Universe]] and begin to bring [[Nova Prime]] and [[Galvatron (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Galvatron]] through. {{storylink|Into the Abyss: Dark Cybertron Chapter 4|Into the Abyss}} When a combined Autobot/Decepticon force arrived, Metalhawk defended the lab against them. Bumblebee attempted to appeal to Metalhawk to help them, only for Metalhawk to accuse him of letting Starscream take over. The battle abruptly ended when Shockwave called on the Titan for help. {{storylink|Finest Hour: Dark Cybertron Chapter 5|Finest Hour}}

[[File:TheBecoming MetalhawkBlastsStarscream.jpg|thumb|upright=1.5|"Metalhawk? Is that you?" "HERE'S A HINT!"]]
Metalhawk was still hanging around as [[Jhiaxus (G2)|Jhiaxus]] arrived with his men. {{storylink|The Dead Are Not Enough: Dark Cybertron Chapter 7|The Dead Are Not Enough}} With the plan swiftly coming to a head, Shockwave ordered Metalhawk to dispose of [[Waspinator (BW)|Waspinator]], however Metalhawk instead listened in as Shockwave began to outline his real goal. {{storylink|Finis Temporis: Dark Cybertron Chapter 9|Finis Temporis}} With the enormity of the plan becoming plain, Metalhawk resolved to warn the others, and received help from [[Skywarp (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Skywarp]] in teleporting to [[Iacon (polity)|Iacon]]. After failing to resist the urge to shoot Starscream on arrival, Metalhawk was witness to the arrival of billions of [[Ammonite]]s over Cybertron. {{storylink|The Becoming: Dark Cybertron Chapter 10|The Becoming}}

They soon found Bumblebee preparing to take a team into Shockwave's inner sanctum and joined the party. Utilizing Skywarp's teleportation, they warped directly there. Metalhawk headed for Jhiaxus's laboratory with Starscream and Rattrap in tow, only to run into Jhiaxus himself on the threshold. {{storylink|Black Planet: Dark Cybertron Chapter 11|Black Planet}} While Starscream kept the scientist busy, Metalhawk entered the laboratory and discovered that Shockwave was using the many [[Energon]] Ores in balance to collapse the Universe. Realizing that the only way to stop the process was to throw it off balance, and that the [[Ore-14]] that remained in his system after his resurrection would do just that, Metalhawk sacrificed his own life to thwart Shockwave's plan. {{storylink|...And the Damage Done: Dark Cybertron Finale|...And the Damage Done}}
During the final battle for [[Earth]], [[Soundwave (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Soundwave]] glimpsed Metalhawk's spirit as the Decepticon used the [[Enigma of Combination]] to assist Optimus Prime against [[Unicron/Generation 1|Unicron]]. {{storylink|Ceremony}}

===''Classics''===
[[File:Invasion-cannotwillnot.jpg|left|thumb|upright=1.67|Never lead a bunch of guys with newer toys into battle.]]
Metalhawk's calmness and adherence to formality earned him the leadership of the Pretenders and the rank of Skyhammer Commander. From the Autobots' [[Skyhammer (G1)|Skyhammer]] base, he kept vigil over the nation of [[Japan]]. {{storylink|#Timelines|BotCon 2012 Metalhawk profile card}} Frequently he clashed with [[Overlord (G1)|Gigatron]] and his Decepticons, particularly during Gigatron's search in [[Kitakyushu]] for [[Musashi Miyamoto|Musashi]]'s sword. But more recently, Gigatron had been attempting to steal the cache of [[Rarified Energon]] guarded within [[Ironworks (facility)|Ironworks]]. Thankfully, Metalhawk and his troops thus far impeded Gigatron's efforts. {{storylink|Invasion Prologue}}

It was during the reconstruction following one of these raids that a portal opened up above Ironworks and strange, evil Autobots from [[Primax -408.24 Epsilon|another dimension]] appeared. Metalhawk was on hand, and he took a squad with him to counter this attack. Unfortunately, nearly all of this squad was wiped out by an evil [[Ultra Magnus (SG)|Ultra Magnus]] and his [[Terminus Blade]]. Metalhawk and his remaining soldier, [[Scoop (G1)|Scoop]], were rescued from certain doom by another raiding party from another dimension, this time heroic Decepticons. Via [[Autobot Regulation R71-B]], Metalhawk demanded to know what was going on, and their rescuers were content to oblige.

[[File:Invasion-whatistha.jpg|thumb|upright=1.4|Metalhawk and Gigatron working together, mass hysteria.]]
The evil Ultra Magnus intended to use the Rarified Energon and his Terminus Blade to bring Earth to his dimension's Cybertron. Metalhawk, his Autobots, and the Heroic Decepticons battled the evil Autobots at all costs to prevent this. Even Gigatron's Decepticons fell in against the invaders, and Metalhawk and his frequent foe teamed up against Ultra Magnus, dealing him a devastating blow. But, ultimately, Magnus succeeded... mostly. Though a heroic [[Soundwave (SG)|Soundwave]] was able to save Earth itself, Magnus managed to destroy the rest of the entire universe! With Earth now in a new dimension near the invaders' [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]], Magnus and his remaining troops fled.

Metalhawk despaired for the fate of his home universe, giving in to sorrow, so a heroic [[Straxus (SG)|Straxus]] recited a hopeful poem. {{storylink|Invasion (issue)|Invasion}}

Metalhawk helped the Autobots of his universe adjust to cooperating with the heroic Decepticon faction in their new home. {{storylink|Solar Requiem}} Metalhawk attended to the arrival of another group of interdimensional explorers from the planet GoBotron. He gave support and respite to the GoBots at Iron Works as they continued their quest to restore the fabric of their home universe. Cliffjumper directed them towards the Caretaker supercomputer as a means to do so. {{storylink|Journey's Eve}} To speed them on their journey, Metalhawk provided the GoBots with a ship and their own pilot, named [[Skyklik]]. {{storylink|Last Sunset}}

Shortly after their Earth was displaced, it also started to come alive. Calling itself [[Gaea]], the Earth mysteriously transported the entire human population to another Earth in another universe. For reasons unknown, Metalhawk and his Pretender companions were displaced with them. {{storylink|The Future Buried...}}

Metalhawk took up the codename "Hawk," and he and his allies set out to uncover the mysteries of their new world; while all the cities and animals on this planet were the same as their old one, no humans appeared to have called this Earth home prior to their arrival. All the while, they had to conceal their Cybertronian nature to avoid anti-Transformer sentiments from the humans. After being alerted that [[Vroom (G1)|Vroom]], [[Spike Witwicky (G1)|Spike]], [[Crossblades (G1)|Crossblades]], and [[Lisa|Elizabeth]] were slacking off in their own investigation, Metalhawk joined their group to get them back on track. He met up with them and discussed their mission statement over dinner, only to be accosted by a mugger after their meal. Spike wound up getting shot during the altercation. {{storylink|Assembly (OMAM)|Assembly}} The bullet wound caused Metalhawk little damage, but it was enough for his attacker to realize he wasn't human. Crossblades and Vroom restrained the mugger, but before Metalhawk could come up with any ideas on how to deal with him, a couple of officers from the local police force turned up. The whole group was taken to the Mérida Police Station. While they were waiting to be questioned on the incident, Metalhawk's self-repair systems were able to cover up his tell-tale wound. To his relief, he learned that his attacker, [[Mendez|Sr. Mendez]], hadn't talked at all after his capture, for fear of implicating himself in his crime. Metalhawk and his friends weren't quite off the hook yet though, as the two officers who interviewed them knew that a gunshot had been fired, but no bullet had been found on the crime scene. Despite this, there was no reason for them to be held, and Metalhawk's group were told they were free to go. As soon as they exited the police station, they were met with a mysterious man who claimed he knew the truth about the Cybertronians' identities, and that [[Ramjet (Universe)|an evil force]] was coming... {{storylink|Insight}}

Though Metalhawk and company were highly suspicious of the man, they agreed to follow him nonetheless, as he claimed to have a spaceship stashed nearby. Upon coming upon the craft however, the man revealed himself to be a Decepticon Pretender, and opened fire on Spike to provoke the Autobots into unveiling their true natures as well. Metalhawk was first to "suit on" and fought off the Decepticon as the latter explained the recent history of the Autobot/Decepticon war in the local universe. Metalhawk demanded to know who they were dealing with, and the Decepticon complied, revealing himself to be none other than Megatron! {{storylink|History}}

:*''ID number:'' '''C-201'''
:*''Accessories'': 2-piece Pretender shell, helmet, "Titanium Saber", "Jet Rifle," left & right "Rifle Wings"
:*''Known designers'': [[Kōjin Ōno]] (TakaraTomy)

: Available [[exclusive]]ly in Japan, Metalhawk is the only Pretender to feature [[die-cast]] metal (a lost art, nowadays). The figure transforms into a blue, gold, red and gray Cybertronic jet (something like a souped-up F-15 Eagle), the gray tailfins of which double as two handheld "Rifle Wing" blasters for his [[robot mode]]. Metalhawk is the only 1987-88 regular Pretender where the vehicle mode seems to be prioritized over the robot mode, having a robot mode with jet wings hanging off and limbs with jet engine or vent detailing, as opposed to a vague vehicle with obvious robot limbs hanging off like the others.

: Metalhawk's outer Pretender shell resembles a human in a red, white, and blue armored space suit, distinguished from other 1988 Pretenders by the presence of a full human face, unobscured by armor like the other Autobots of the year, as well as boxier armor lacking a belt accessory, and having much more heroic proportions compared to the more bulbous original Pretender shells. The Metalhawk shell's helmet is removable and is used to help "lock" the two shell-halves together. The shell is armed with the Titanium Saber and Jet Rifle; the Rifle Wings can also plug into the sides of the Jet Rifle when the robot is stored within the shell, transforming it into the "Wing Blaster". Like his contemporary Japanese exclusive cohort, [[Grand Maximus]], Metalhawk has silver paper decals as opposed to clear plastic decals like the other Pretenders.

:A [[retool]] of ''[[Transformers: Generations (toyline)|Generations]]'' [[Thunderwing (G1)#Generations|Thunderwing]], Metalhawk is a blue and red fighter jet loosely based on an [[United States Air Force#F-22 Raptor|F-22 Raptor]], with different wings but retaining the F-22's characteristic zigzag patterns sculpted on the hull. In addition to a new fleshy head, the nose of the jet can detach and become a separate aerial drone, while the two missile launchers can detach from the wings and become handheld weapons or clip together into one massive gun. The middle section of the sculpted missiles on the sides of the guns are also compatible with [[C joint]] accessories. Metalhawk's colors are based on the original toy's Pretender shell rather than the inner robot, much like other recent new toys of Pretender characters.

:A retool of ''[[Titans Return (toyline)|Titans Return]]'' [[Triggerhappy (G1)#Generations|Triggerhappy]], Metalhawk transforms from a robot based on his [[#Super-God Masterforce|original inner robot mode]] into a Cybertronian starfighter based on Triggerhappy's [[Triggerhappy (G1)#The Transformers|original vehicle mode]]. Metalhawk has 5mm post holes on the underside of his wings and the inside of his built-in non-firing blasters, accessible in robot mode. The holes on his shoulders can also accept 5mm posts, but are covered by his wings or blasters in both modes. Like most ''Titans Return'' figures, he has a port for a generic pose/flight stand on his backside.

:He includes two blasters that can combine into a larger weapon that his Titan Master partner [[Haruma Gō|Professor Go]] can sit in. Unlike most Deluxe and larger figures, however, there does not appear to be a way to mount the combined weapon in vehicle mode, and while Professor Go can peg in, it does not appear to have a proper seat.

:Metalhawk and Professor Go were only available as part of the "Siege on Cybertron" set, which also includes [[Ginrai (human)#Generations|Ginrai]] & [[Ginrai (robot)#Titans Return|Magnus Prime]], [[Fathom#Generations|Fathom]] & [[Tidal Wave (G1)#Generations|Tidal Wave]], [[Pounce#Generations|Decepticon Pounce]], and [[Thunderwing (G1)#SiegeOnCybertron|Thunderwing]].

Additionally, it was also available at retail in Hong Kong and Singapore and even saw an official release in the Netherlands, where it was exclusively available from BOL.

:''[[Power of the Primes (toyline)|Power of the Primes]]'' [[Vector Prime]] is a [[Prime Master]] with Metalhawk decoy armor, visually based on the original [[Pretender]]'s inner robot and shell.

:This toy has identical features to the other Prime Masters in the line. The decoy armor has a weapon piece which can fold out to create a weapon mode, or detach and be held in the armor's 3 mm-compatible hand. The [[Titan Master]]-like robot can store inside the decoy armor or ride [[Size class|Legends Class]] figures in vehicle mode, and is fully compatible with toys from the previous ''[[Titans Return (toyline)|Titans Return]]'' line. The "Power Swap" gimmick means its [[spark]] form can plug onto any decoy armor's weapon form (which has a [[5 mm post]] to be held by larger figures), Deluxe Class figures' chest armor, Voyager Class figures' bucklers, Leader Class figures' [[Matrix of Leadership/toys#Power of the Primes|Matrix]] (in place of their Matrix core), [[combiner]]s' torsos (in place of their [[Enigma of Combination]]), or the [[Scepter of Sparks]]. With the power of [[You|your]] imagination, this bestows the Prime Master's [[Prime Master/Combinations|unique power]] on the larger figure.

:Unlike every other Titan Master/Prime Master, Vector Prime and his fellow first wave Prime Masters feature backpacks/symbols secured by pins instead of screws.

:Though designated for a first quarter 2018 release, Vector Prime/Metalhawk's wave reached U.S. store shelves in November 2017.

:Vector Prime/Metalhawk was retooled with a new [[Prime Master]] sigil and decoy armor front as [[Alpha Trion (G1)#Power of the Primes|Alpha Trion]]/[[Landmine (G1)#Power of the Primes|Landmine]], and again replacing the entire gray sprue with new parts for [[Quintus Prime#Power of the Primes|Quintus Prime]]/[[Bludgeon (G1)#Power of the Primes|Bludgeon]].

:Released in the eighth wave of [[Kabaya]]'s ''[[Transformers Gum]]'' line of snap-together "[[candy toy]]" model kits, this version of Metalhawk stands at about four inches tall in robot mode, and is cast in red, white, and blue plastic. He includes all the accessories and features of his larger figure, save one difference: the arms of his Pretender shell are removable, and used to hold the shell closed. As a ''Transformers Gum'' kit, he featured no paint applications, but came with stickers for detail, and a piece of terrible gum.

: A PVC figurine of Metalhawk in his Pretender armor was available in the fifth, ''Masterforce''-centric "Act" of [[TakaraTomy|Takara]]'s [[Heroes of Cybertron (toyline)|Super Collection Figure]] line. He came packaged with a figurine of [[Minerva (human)#SCFhuman|Minerva]] in her human form; the pair were available in both full color and metallic silver "pewter" versions, at a ratio of one per each case of twelve [[blindpacking|blindpacked]] figures. His incredibly wide stance makes it nigh-impossible to properly use the stand he comes with, as one foot will always be at least on the very edge of the stand.

: In eight out of every ten cases, the pewter version of the figures came with the right arm of the wave's collectible [[Scorponok (G1)#Super Collection Figure|BlackZarak]] "build-a-figure". This part could be in either full-color or clear plastic, packed at a ratio of 4:4.

{{toydesigner|[[Kōjin Ōno]] (TakaraTomy)}}

: Released in the first year of the [[The Transformers (toyline)|original ''Transformers'' toyline]], Starscream began life as "Jet Robo" from the Japanese ''[[Diaclone]]'' line, transforming into a grey, red and blue F-15 Eagle fighter jet. To transform Starscream, one must essentially take most of his plane parts off and transform his body, then reattach most of plane parts on again, along with the addition of two blue fists. Owing to the modular nature of his design and the fact that it is impossible to store all the parts in either mode, it can be quite difficult to find an intact original set of this toy.

: Starscream is armed with a pair of missile launchers that mount on his arms in robot mode, and under his wings in jet mode, with a pair of specialized projectiles for each. In jet mode, two short "[[cluster bomb]]" projectiles are fitted into the launchers to make them resemble the drop tanks a real F-15 carries, while in robot mode, they are replaced with the long barrels of Starscream's [[null-ray]]s. The original ''Diaclone'' version of the mold featured spring-loaded firing mechanisms in these launchers; while this feature was removed for the [[Hasbro]] release of the toy, it was left intact for the [[TakaraTomy|Takara]] version, and all subsequent reissues.

: The ''Diaclone'' version of the Starscream mold featured tailfins with solid tips and solid fists, and both these features carried over to the earliest ''Transformers'' releases. Soon, however, the ''Transformers'' mold was modified to add hollow tips to the fins, and tabs to the insides of the fists to allow them to hold onto his arms tighter, resulting in a visible slit on either side of each one. These altered versions became the standard for all subsequent reissues of the mold. Like all his 1984 brethren, a [[rubsign]] was added to Starscream in 1985.

: Presumably by mistake, the stats on Starscream, Skywarp, and Thundercracker's [[Tech Spec]]s were switched around. Starscream's box was given Thundercracker's numbers, notably giving him a lower rank and speed that stood in contrast to the bio printed next to them.

: The Italian release of Starscream (as "Astrum") by [[GiG]] put him in a generic "Distructor Planes" box, featuring names and tech specs for all three planes in the assortment.

: Starscream's mold was [[redeco]]ed into the concurrently-available [[Thundercracker (G1)/toys#The Transformers|Thundercracker]] and [[Skywarp (G1)/toys#The Transformers|Skywarp]]. It would later be redecoed again to make [[Sunstorm (G1)#Toys|Sunstorm]], and [[retool]]ed into [[Dirge (G1)/toys#The Transformers|Dirge]], [[Ramjet (G1)/toys#The Transformers|Ramjet]], and [[Thrust (G1)/toys#The Transformers|Thrust]].

: Given his role as a major and popular character, Starscream himself would be reissued many times down the years, the first being [[Classics (Europe)#Australian exclusives|still in his original packaging in Australia]] in 1990 (see below). Subsequent reissues had more distinctive presentation, and this article strives to list each one under its own header. He was available throughout the first three years of the original US line, up through 1986 despite the departure of nearly every other 1984 toy from store shelves that year.

:The second release of Starscream's toy came with this Japanese-exclusive two-pack, which saw him packaged alongside [[Megatron (G1)/toys#GoodBye|Megatron]], in commemoration of the Decepticon leader's passing ([[Galvatron (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|of sorts]]) in ''[[The Transformers: The Movie]]''.

: The first new Starscream toy since the original brought the treacherous Air Commander back as a [[Classic Pretender]]. He still transforms into a grey, red and blue F-15 fighter jet, though his vehicle mode now borders on the [[super deformed]]. He is armed with a pair of blue lasers, which become his tail fins in jet mode.

: Starscream's two-piece [[Pretender]] shell resembles a human in a teal, grey and brown space armored suit with a removable helmet. The shell is armed with a large blue rifle. When Starscream is inside the shell, his removable grey wings store in holes on the shell's back, while the blue lasers get plugged into the sides of the large rifle.

: Released exclusively in Japan ''instead'' of the individual Classic Pretender figures, rather than in addition to them, this giftset contained the "Legends" versions of Pretender Starscream and his fellow Classic Pretenders, [[Bumblebee (G1)/toys#Hero Set|Bumblebee]], [[Jazz (G1)/toys#HeroSet|Jazz]], and [[Grimlock (G1)/toys#HeroSet|Grimlock]]. This version of Starscream featured a silver face, as opposed to the Hasbro version's black.

: In Italy, [[GiG]] also forewent releasing the individual Classic Pretenders, and instead released their own version of the Hero Set named "Set Commandos". Starscream was given the name "Tornado", which was originally the Italian name of [[Air Raid (G1)|Air Raid]]. The "Set Commandos" toys were identical to the Japanese "Hero Set" versions.

:*''Accessories'': Turbo Jet, rifle, 2 missiles, seatback/shield

: Released in the seventh and final year of the original ''Transformers'' line (well, final in the US, anyway), [[Action Master]] Starscream is a non-transforming 3¾-inch action figure based loosely on his cartoon [[character model]], but using a color scheme derived from the Pretender toy. His construction is broadly similar to that used by the ''[[G.I. Joe (franchise)|G.I. Joe]]'' figures of the time, having a swivel neck, shoulders and knees, plus ball-jointed hips attached via a steel rod internally secured by a rubber "o-ring". His hands have standard 3 mm holes which allow him to hold any other accessory in the Action Master line, plus his feet have holes in the bottom to secure him to larger vehicles. On top of that, the hole in his back is compatible with [[5 mm post]]s.

: One of two toys in the "Action Blaster Vehicle" assortment, he came with the [[Turbo Jet]], a small personal attack craft that Starscream can set astride like a motorcycle. The Turbo Jet rolls on three small wheels, and can transform into a gun emplacement.

: This mold was [[redeco]]ed as [[Thundercracker (G1)/toys#ActionMaster|Action Master Thundercracker]].

: The third exclusive redeco of the original Starscream toy released alongside the 2001 reissues, "Starscream Secret Version" was available through the [[Lucky Draw figure|Lucky Draw]] contest held in conjunction with the first edition of ''[[Transformers Generations (guidebook)|Transformers Generations]]'' (with a ''[[Heroes of Cybertron (toyline)|Super Collection Figure]]'' Skywarp figurine as second prize). The figure was limited to only ''five'' pieces, making it one of the rarest officially-released ''Transformers'' toys in the world, and to cap it off, the toy was not actually ''shown'' during the contest, hence its "Secret" moniker. Given its amazingly limited availability, it was not even 100% known ''what the toy looked like'' until a picture of it appeared in ''[[Transformers Generations 2009 Volume 2]]'', showing it as being primarily clear and colorless. Prior to this appearance, it was suggested that both this toy and the ''SCF'' Skywarp were ''not'' officially released, due to the bankruptcy of ''Generations'' publisher [[Keibunsha]]. Whether or not this scenario is accurate is still unknown at this time, as no one has publicly translated the text regarding the figure from ''Generations 2009''.

**''Accessories:'' Left & right fists, left & right wings, left & right tail fins, left & right tail wings, landing gear, 2 missile launchers, 3 missiles, sound/light energy unit

:Starscream's ''[[Transformers: Generation 2 (toyline)|Generation 2]]'' release is a slight [[retool]] of his original toy, armed with new, functional spring-loaded launchers and missiles, and an electronic light-and-sound "energy unit" in the shape of a tank. The electronic box lights up with the press of either button, and emits electronic "machine gun" or "jet engine" noises. In robot mode, the box attaches to Starscream's back; in jet mode, it plugs into his tail-end.

:This version of the mold would have been used to make ''Generation 2'' [[Blackout (G2)|Blackout]]. The new accessories were also used, in different colors, for ''Generation 2'' [[Ramjet (G1)/toys#Generation 2|Ramjet]].

*'''Advanced Tactical Bomber Megatron''' (Decepticon, limited test market release)
**''Accessories'': 12 missiles, 2 missiles launchers

: A planned-but-more-or-less-canceled redeco of ''Generation 2'' [[Dreadwing (G2)#Toys|Dreadwing]], "Advanced Tactical Bomber" [[Megatron (G1)/toys#ATB|Megatron]] would have come with Starscream, a redeco of Dreadwing's partner [[Smokescreen (G2)#Toys|Smokescreen]]. The pair can combine into the "flying wing" Advanced Tactical Bomber, while Starscream can detach to become a smaller solo jet, leaving Megatron to transform into a treaded tank mode. According the Toy Fair 1995 Transformers presentation, the toy's missiles are intended to glow in the dark.

: This toy's deco was modified to make ''[[Transformers: Beast Wars (Japanese toyline)#1998 (Beast Wars II)|Beast Wars]]'' [[BB (BW)#Toys|BB]] and [[Starscream (BW)#Toys|Starscream]] out of the same mold-set. Importantly, ''this'' Starscream has light gray plastic rather than ''Beast Wars II'' Starscream's silver plastic, as well as an unpainted gray head with a blue faceplate where ''Beast Wars II'' has a painted-black helmet with silver faceplate, and of course, different stickers between the two. The missiles in the set are also [[retool]]ed with a different, pointier back-end, indicating the launchers' interiors were also retooled; this tooling is however completely different from the retooling done to each individual later use of the mold, meaning ''none'' of the missiles are interchangeable between them.

: This figure was only released to test markets in Ohio, USA in very limited quantities. It was never available as a wide release.

*'''Starscream''' (Ultra, 1997)
**''Accessories:'' 10 missiles

: Starscream's ''[[Machine Wars: Transformers|Machine Wars]]'' incarnation is a redeco of the [[Predator (subgroup)|Predator]] [[Skyquake (G1)#Toys|Skyquake]], transforming into a large bomber jet based vaguely upon an SR-71 Blackbird. The main feature of the toy is its "carpet bombing" gimmick; each wing contains a drum that holds up to four missiles, which drop out as the drum is rotated. A further two missiles can also store on each wing, and one on each side of his fuselage, but while Skyquake came with enough missiles to fill all these ports, Starscream only comes with ten. The short length of the missiles necessary for this gimmick to function means that Starscream does not come with Skyquake's firing missile launcher, since the missiles are shorter than [[for safety reasons|US safety standards]] allow, although it is incorrectly shown on his packaging. Starscream also lacks Skyquake's [[Megavisor]] gimmick. The figure also features a barely noticeable yet enormous Decepticon symbol on the [http://www.seibertron.com/transformers-toys/view/machine-wars/starscream/608/2/25/ top of the plane] rendered in black paint on black plastic.

: Starscream is known to have come with either pale grey missiles, better fitting his new color scheme, or bright green missiles like Skyquake's.

: This mold was later redecoed to make [[King Atlas#Toys|King Atlas]]. The toy [[Repurposing|doubles]] as the [[Starscream drone]]s in ''[[Transformers: Wings Universe|Wings Universe]]'' and as [[Starscream (MW)|an unnamed character]] in [[2019 IDW continuity]].

: Starscream would have been made available in the aborted ''[[Transcendent Technomorph|Transtech]]'' series in 2001. Control art and early [[Prototype]] images have surfaced, showing that the toy would have been at the Deluxe scale and featured internal lighting mechanisms that changed color depending on its mode. The toy is clearly a homage to his ''Machine Wars'' body, which at the time of ''Transtech's'' intended release would have been the last form Starscream had inhabited in American markets.

: In 2008, this design would be [[Repurposing|repurposed]] as the [[Transcendent Technomorph|TransTech]] universe's [[Starscream (TransTech)|Starscream]].

: This design was revived by [[Draxhall Jump]] when they were contracted to create the ''[[Marvel Comics|Marvel]] Megamorphs'' line for Toy Biz; Starscream ultimately became the [[Iron Man]] toy.

: Available concurrently with the 2001 reissue of the original Generation 1 Starscream figure, "Starscream Ghost Version" is an [[e-HOBBY]] [[exclusive]] ''[[The Transformers: Collector's Edition|Collector's Edition]]'' redeco of the 2001 Starscream reissue, cast almost entirely in translucent plastics (except for those parts made of die-cast metal) in homage to Starscream's tenure as a ghost in the third season of the [[The Transformers (cartoon)|original ''The Transformers'' cartoon]]. To make the toy further match Starscream's cartoon appearance, it features a notably lighter shade of blue, and a translucent orange cockpit as opposed to the traditional smoky grey.

: The toy came in unique monochrome-blue window box packaging featuring [[Computer-generated imagery|CGI]] artwork of Starscream. It was also only available sold as a set with the "Black Version" Starscream below, shipping out in December.

:The first reissue of the original Starscream toy in North America since the Generation 1 toyline reached its end, this "[[The Transformers: Generation One Commemorative Series|Commemorative Series]]" edition of the figure was a [[Toys"R"Us]] exclusive. It featured functional missile launchers for the first time on a Hasbro version of the toy, but because the launchers now worked, both sets of missiles had to be lengthened [[for safety reasons]]. This didn't work out ''so'' badly with the null-rays, but the cluster bombs just wound up looking ''stupid''.

:As another in an increasingly large number of reissues of the original Generation 1 Starscream toy, this entry in the Japanese-exclusive ''[[The Transformers Collection]]'' line of reissues decided to mix things up by giving the figure a full-scale redeco into [[show-accuracy|show-accurate]] colors. His blue plastic became much lighter, while his cockpit was made bright orange, and even featured new grey paint applications running across it. Several of his stickers were replaced with new, show-accurate paint applications, including new wing-stripes and [[tampograph]]ed Decepticon symbols on his wings and nosecone (of course, Starscream didn't have one on his nosecone in the cartoon, so it isn't perfect!).

:Starscream's fists were remolded with new circular peg-holes so he could wield his missile launchers in his hands, which also worked in conjunction with a new tab on the fists' undersides to allow him to hold his new accessory: Megatron in gun mode. This miniature Megatron splits into two pieces at the handle, with each half plugging into the new hole and tab added to each of Starscream's fists. Megatron can also plug into Starscream's underside in jet mode, replicating the time the characters linked up in this fashion in the cartoon episode, "[[S.O.S. Dinobots]]". The set also came with a remolded fist for the original Optimus Prime toy, allowing him to hold the Megatron accessory, and a DVD featuring a trailer for the upcoming Playstation 2 video game ''[[The Transformers (G1 PS2)|The Transformers]]'' and Japanese toy [[commercial]]s for Optimus Prime, [[Hot Rod (G1)/toys|Rodimus Prime]] and [[Chromedome (G1)|Chromedome]].

: Standing at only two inches tall, ''[[Smallest Transforming Transformers]]'' Starscream is a ''very'' small-scale simplification of the original Starscream toy. It retains a surprising amount of the larger toy's functionality and accessories, except its tail fins and wings are combined into single pieces, and his null-rays and landing gear are left out.

:This mold was, of course, redecoed into ''Smallest Transforming'' versions of Skywarp and Thundercracker, and retooled into Thrust.

: Part of the second wave of Takara's ''[[Robotmasters (franchise)|Robotmasters]]'' toys, Starscream is a re-imagining of the original Generation 1 figure, retaining its basic [[Transformation|transformation scheme]], but designed to be closer to the animation model, with greater articulation and integrated parts that do not require detachment during transformation. The only pieces that now need to be removed are Starscream's null-ray rifles, which move from his wings to his arms. He has three peg-holes on each arm, allowing the null-rays to be mounted on his shoulders, on his forearms, or in his fists. These holes are also designed to accommodate the generic spring-loaded missile launcher weapon included with ''Robotmasters'' [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys#Robotmasters|G1 Convoy]], [[Optimus Primal (BW)/toys#Robotmasters|Beast Convoy]] and [[Megatron (BW)/toys#Robotmasters|Beast Megatron]].

: Starscream came with two "missile pods" based on weapons Starscream used but once, in the Generation 1 cartoon episode "[[Fire on the Mountain (episode)|Fire on the Mountain]]". These chromed accessories plug into the square holes in Starscream's chest, and feature opening covers that reveal (non-firing) missiles within.

: This mold was redecoed into ''Robotmasters'' [[Skywarp (G1)/toys#Robotmasters|Skywarp]] and [[Thundercracker (G1)/toys#Robotmasters|Thundercracker]].

*'''Starscream''' ([[September 28]], [[2006]])
**''ID number:'' '''MP-3'''
**''Accessories:'' 2 null-rays, 2 missile racks, [[Doctor Arkeville#Masterpiece|Doctor Arkeville]] pilot figurine, gun clip, two-piece display stand
{{toydesigner|[[Shōji Kawamori]] (TakaraTomy)|[[Hironori Kobayashi]] (initial concept)}}

:The second figure designed in [[TakaraTomy|Takara]]'s ''[[The Transformers: Masterpiece|Masterpiece]]'' line, this highly-detailed version of Starscream is the "odd man out" of the series, eschewing the slavish cartoon-accuracy of the other ''Masterpiece'' figures in favor of creating as accurate an F-15 Eagle alternate mode as possible, with a somewhat more stylized robot mode. As it happens, this Starscream does not transform into a standard {{w|McDonnell Douglas F-15 Eagle|F-15 Eagle}}, rather he transforms into an {{w|McDonnell Douglas F-15E Strike Eagle|F-15E Strike Eagle}}; with the dead giveaways being in the conformal fuel tanks on the fuselage, darker aircraft camouflage, and the placement of the real-world-styled decals. The toy features several unobtrusive built-in gimmicks, including ''numerous'' opening panels on his jet mode surface (highlighting the attention this mode received), flip-up panels in his chest that reveal missile racks based on the weapons seen in the Generation 1 episode "Fire on the Mountain", and a rotating face that allows Starscream to switch his expression from stony-faced to sneering. Owners of the toy are given quite a few customization options, as Starscream comes with an extensive sheet of sticker decals, including variously sized Decepticon symbols, and squadron numbers and markings, including one of [[Waspinator (BW)|Waspinator]]!

:In addition to his built-in features, Starscream comes with several accessories. He is armed with both his traditional null-ray rifles, but his familiar cluster bombs are replaced with a rack of (slightly inaccurate) Sidewinder missiles. He also comes with a clip that mounts under his nosecone, allowing him to hold the Megatron pistol accessory that came with [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys#20th Anniversary.2FMasterpiece|''20th Anniversary'' Optimus Prime]] in emulation of the way the characters linked up in "S.O.S. Dinobots", and a [[Slug figure|small figurine]] of [[Doctor Arkeville]], his partner in crime from several first-season episodes of the Generation 1 cartoon, which can fit in his cockpit. Finally, he includes a two-piece, reconfigurable display base that allows the figure to be posed in mid-flight in either jet or robot mode, and can store Starscream's accessories while they are not in use. [[Control drawing|Control art]] for ''Masterpiece'' Starscream which showed the figure wearing his [[Transformer clothing|Crown of Leadership]] (as seen in the coronation scene of the original animated movie) and a pair of otherwise-pointless flip-out notches in the finished toy's shoulders indicated that Takara planned for a set of clip-on coronation gear. Ultimately, it would take ''six years'' before these accessories were finally released.

: ''Masterpiece'' Starscream's creation was overseen by famed Japanese mecha designer [[Shōji Kawamori]], who was particularly intent on hiding the robot-mode details on the underside of the fighter mode. The first prototype for the figure was essentially an upgraded, more complex version of the original toy, with much more accurate robot and jet modes, but Kawamori's desire to avoid simply making a new version of an old toy saw the figure go through a major redesign into its finished form. Perhaps the most notable change was the repositioning of Starscream's tail-fin structures from his legs to his hips, with the intent of creating the feel of a samurai wearing a pair of swords at his waist (presumably, if somewhat oddly, based on the then-recent ''[[Transformers: Armada (franchise)|Armada]]'' and ''[[Transformers: Energon (franchise)|Energon]]'' cartoons' portrayal of their [[Starscream (Armada)/Cartoon continuity|Starscream]] as a noble swordsman). Even so, Kawamori was still unhappy with the amount of robotic parts visible underneath the plane, but conceded that too many changes would essentially not make the toy look like Starscream in robot mode. In this pursuit of realism, the most visible concession to the design was the abandonment of his traditional color scheme (which is much closer to a standard F-15's color scheme), replaced with an all-over greenish-tinged grey—a color scheme that is more accurate to the real-world version of the toy's {{w|File:F-15E takes on fuel from KC-10.jpg|F-15E Strike Eagle}} vehicle mode.

:This mold was later retooled into the ''Masterpiece'' versions of [[Skywarp (G1)/toys#Masterpiece|Skywarp]] and [[Thundercracker (G1)/toys#Masterpiece|Thundercracker]], and was recolored by Hasbro into a [[#MasterpieceUS|more cartoon-accurate Starscream color scheme]] released under their ''[[#Classics|Classics]]'' line as well as redecoed into Hasbro's version of Masterpiece [[Skywarp (G1)/toys#Universe .282008.29|Skywarp]] under the [[Transformers: Universe (2008 franchise)|Universe]] line. It was also redecoed and retooled to create the eleventh ''Masterpiece'' figure, [[#MP11|Starscream]].

:Though not stated on the package, Starscream is in fact a 1/60 scale F-15. The same scale used by many popular Japanese mecha toys including Kawamori's own ''Macross'' Valkyries. Coincidence?

:Cast almost entirely in translucent plastic, this "Ghost Version" ''Masterpiece'' figure is yet another callback to Starscream's spectral tenure from the Generation 1 cartoon. When purchased from [[e-HOBBY]], buyers received an [[MP-3G Destron Air Commander / Starscream Ghost Ver.|exclusive comic]] packaged with the figure. Surprisingly, Ghost Starscream comes with the same sticker sheet as the original MP-3 Starscream, only with the numbering designation changed.

:Like Gentei Ghost Starscream, Masterpiece Ghost Starscream is cast in light purple translucent plastic instead of just colorless clear plastic like the G1 Ghost Starscream figure.

:''Extreme'' caution is needed while transforming/posing this toy: Several parts of him (especially the wing connectors) are prone to breakage.

**''Accessories:'' Crown, pauldrons (left and right), cape, 2 null-rays, hologram pilot figurine
{{toydesigner|[[Shogo Hasui]] and [[Hironori Kobayashi]] (TakaraTomy)}}

:Following up on the original plan for the ''Masterpiece'' Starscream figure six years after the fact, MP-11 decks Screamer out in his coronation gear from ''The Transformers: The Movie'', including crown, twin shoulder pads, and a sculpted plastic cape (rather than a fabric one). In addition to his new accessories—which also include a new hologram pilot figure in place of Doctor Arkeville—Starscream features some extensive retooling to wind his ''Masterpiece'' design away from Kawamori's original, less Generation 1-accurate look, with most of the robot mode being newly tooled parts, including chunkier legs that now incorporate his tail-fins, [[retool]]ed shoulders and wingtips that no longer curve into one another, a new head (with collapsible head fins), new heel spurs that flip out for added support in robot mode, and re-engineered null-rays attached to extending armatures that mean they no longer have to be [[Partformer|removed]] for transformation. Despite the similarity to the original MP-3 prototype, the retooled parts are in fact a whole new design heavily based on the original concept. This new version of the mold was redecoed into [[Sunstorm (G1)#Masterpiece|Sunstorm]] and (without the coronation gear) into Hasbro's [[Thundercracker (G1)/toys#Transformers (2010)|Thundercracker]], [[Skywarp (G1)/toys#MP11SW|Skywarp]] and [[Acid Storm (G1)#Masterpiece|Acid Storm]]. It was later retooled into the [[Seeker (body-type)#Coneheads|Coneheads]] [[Ramjet (G1)/toys#Masterpiece|Ramjet]], [[Thrust (G1)/toys#Masterpiece|Thrust]] and [[Dirge (G1)/toys#Masterpiece|Dirge]], although the mold by that point had noticeably [[Mold#Deterioration|deteriorated]], resulting in numerous quality control issues.

:2013 saw a China-only re-release of MP-11 Starscream. While announced as the same as the original, it featured some changes. Chief among them is the head is no longer molded in light gray plastic painted over gloss black and dark metallic gray (for the face) but it's molded in a more cartoon accurate dark gray (for the helmet) and a lighter metallic gray for the face. This release also features the nosecone molded in light gray plastic rather than molded in blue and then painted over light gray. The black tabs on the top of the jet are now the same grey as the rest of the jet. It also included a collector's coin like the original Asian (excluding Japan) release.

:The figure was reissued once more, this time in Japan, in April 2017 along with several other toys in the line to coincide with the release of the then upcoming MP36 Megatron and features a "Good design award" mark on the box.

:This version was released by Hasbro under ''Generations'' co-branding (see next entry just below).

:The Hasbro version of [[#MP11|MP-11]] differs from the Takara release in a toy-accurate blue nose cone, borders around the Decepticon logo, a slightly different grey plastic, the tabs of the top of the jet are in grey (like the second release of MP-11) and is missing the coronation gear. However, he does come with the stand from previous Masterpiece Seekers and two racks of missiles that can peg onto the bottom of his wings in place of the null-rays. Neither the box nor the instructions mention this, but he comes with the gray clip that can hold the Megatron gun that came with other ''Masterpiece'' figures, such as MP-1 Optimus Prime or MP-13 Soundwave. Official images, including the box art, shows the top of the wings mis-transformed in robot mode.

:Despite still using the numbering system of Hasbro's ''Masterpiece'' line begun in 2013, Starscream was [[co-branding|co-branded]] as part of the ''[[Transformers: Generations (toyline)|Generations]]'' line. He was available exclusively at [[Toys"R"Us]] stores in the US, Australia, and Canada.

{{toydesigner|[[Kōjin Ōno]] (TakaraTomy)}}

:The third iteration of ''Masterpiece'' Starscream features more cartoon-accurate proportions compared to previous releases. He can also convert into his Gerwalk-styled "Alternate Transformation" while in Jet mode. Popular toy magazine ''Figure King'' profiled this new cartoon/Anime accurate version in issue #242.

:A ''Hobby Magazine'' issue revealed that his chest was redesigned during the prototype's production, allowing the parts to correctly sit flush.

:For accessories, he comes with 5 alternate faces, various effect parts and, like many other newer ''Masterpiece'' figures, a bunch of accessories referring to determinate appearances of the character in the G1 cartoon, such as [[Megatron (G1)/toys#MP52|Megatron]] in gun mode (the first time such an accessory has been included with a ''Masterpiece'' Starscream), the drill arm seen in "[[The Core]]" and the pincer he used in "[[Cosmic Rust (episode)|Cosmic Rust]]" to remove the asteroid fragment from Megatron's arm, alongside said asteroid fragment. He also comes with a 2-piece stand with an adaptable arm, a purple redeco of the one that came with [[Dinobot (BW)/toys#Masterpiece|Dinobot]], plus a specific cradle adapter to attach Starscream in Gerwalk mode to the stand. Numerous cases of hairline cracks have been reported at the wrist joints and tailfin joints.

:Upon the announcement of the second version of ''Masterpiece'' [[Skywarp (G1)/toys#MP52|Skywarp]], a competition for Starscream's add-on kit was revealed; giving him his iconic crown and cape from ''[[The Transformers: The Movie]]''. Those who purchased Starscream, Skywarp, and [[Thundercracker (G1)/toys#MP52|Thundercracker]] could snip off a box flap of each figure, mail them in and receive the Coronation set for free. This was only available to those who lived in Japan, but since each box flap had a unique code, there was no household limit to how many one could redeem.

:''Masterpiece'' Starscream Ver. 2.0 was redecoed into the [[TakaraTomy Mall]] [[exclusive]] Thundercracker.

{{toydesigner|[[Eric Siebenaler]] (Hasbro), [[Shogo Hasui]] (TakaraTomy)|[[Don Figueroa]] (concept artist)}}

: Like the other entries in the ''[[Transformers: Classics|Classics]]'' series, Starscream is a faithful "modernizing" of his original Generation 1 form, updating his original toy with modern standards of toy engineering, transformation, sculpting detail and articulation (not dissimilar in principle from his ''[[#Robotmasters|Robotmasters]]'' incarnation, but with less of an adherence to his cartoon [[character model]]). Sharing many design elements with his ''[[#Masterpiece|Masterpiece]]'' toy, Starscream still transforms into an F-15 Eagle, but has the nose of an {{w|F-14 Tomcat}} fighter jet. His color scheme is, of course, based on the traditional Starscream palette, but seems to owe its new layout to {{w|File:F-15A first prototype 2.jpg|the original F-15 prototype}}.

:As usual, Starscream is armed with his familiar null-rays, which can mount under his wings, on his shoulders, or in his fists, and fire spring-loaded projectiles. The large size of his null-rays (necessary [[for safety reasons]]) restrict his arm movement somewhat in robot mode, as they bump into his wings. Like all ''Classics'' figures, he has a heat-activated rubsign on his left wing. Certain parts of Starscream, like his back panel and tailfin assemblies, are made of unusually rigid gray plastic that is slightly prone to cracking or breaking, and should be handled with care.

: [[Variant#Running changes|Later versions]] of Starscream saw a [[retool]] in the jet intake area, which involved the slope of his shoulders being decreased, and a fifth small rectangle being added to the vertical area. This version of Starscream is the harder to find of the two, but was used as the basis for all subsequent redecos and retools. Despite its age, the mold has been frequently reused for various Seeker characters in the years since its first use, though its last few uses have exhibited visible signs of mold degredation.

**''Accessories:'' 2 null-rays, 2 missile racks, Doctor Arkeville pilot figurine, gun clip, display stand

: A [[Walmart]] exclusive, Hasbro's Masterpiece Starscream is an ''extensive'' redeco of the previous year's ''Masterpiece'' figure from Takara, recolored to resemble the character's animation model, down to the orange canopy and the silver nosecone, although the cartoon-accurate silver paint on the nosecone actually covers ''toy''-accurate blue plastic.<ref>[http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/radicons-customs/206593-clean-mp-ss-cleanscream-blue-nosecone.html Clean MP SS - Cleanscream(blue nosecone) - tfw2005.com]</ref> In an effort to bring out detail in the sculpt, he has also been given an extensive paint wash to bring out his panel lines. His colors were not the only thing changed, however; the tips of his vertical stabilizers were shortened and rounded, and the plastics used overall have greater resilience to impact and damage than the fragile Japanese release.

:Starscream includes the same accessories as the Takara version of the toy, including a two-piece display stand, null-rays, sidewinder missiles, a small figurine of Doctor Arkeville (which now has the correct skin color), and a clip to hold 20th Anniversary Optimus Prime's Megatron gun while in jet mode. Starscream was finally given the correct tech spec stats he was originally supposed to have back in 1984 for this release, which had been mistakenly given to Skywarp instead.

:Takara got in on the act the following year when they released Hasbro's version of Masterpiece Starscream as a "[[USA Edition]]", adding a Japanese sticker to the Hasbro ''Classics'' packaging. This version of the toy was not without a few changes: the original mold for the tail fins was used, an extra Decepticon symbol was added to Starscream's nosecone (which was present on his original toy, but not his animation model), and his black "scorch mark" [[paint operation]]s were dialed back, and those that remained were switched to a lighter gray.

{{toydesigner|[[Andrew Scribner]] (deco artist)}}

:The second ''Universe'' Starscream toy is a redeco of [[#Classics|''Classics'' Starscream]], with a considerably lighter gray base color, more vibrant red paint, his face painted in dark gray compared to ''Classics'' Starscream's flat gray plastic color for the face and a deco more faithful to Starscream's original Generation 1 toy, very similar to the ''Henkei! Henkei!'' release.

:Several minor changes were made to the sculpt for this release: his launcher pegs were widened, and the peg-holes for them on his shoulders and wings were modified in order to accommodate them. His air intakes were further modified (on top of the changes made to the mold for [[Skywarp (G1)/toys#Classics (2006)|''Classics'' Skywarp]]) so that the bottom-most rectangle goes completely across the air intake's surface rather than just the center.

:The figure is reported to suffer from heavy quality control issues, most commonly mentioned are the joints and hinges being incredibly weak. As a result, Starscream's wings are difficult to keep in place in robot mode. The elbows, which previously snapped into place when articulated, now slide freely, and the entire hip joint system can be shifted out of alignment.

:This modified version of the mold was used for ''Henkei! Henkei!'' [[Skywarp (G1)/toys#Henkei! Henkei!|Skywarp]] and [[Thundercracker (G1)/toys#Universe (2008)|Thundercracker]].

{{toydesigner|[[Hironori Kobayashi]] (TakaraTomy)}}

:The first transformable Starscream toy not to turn into a jet, ''[[Transformers: Alternity|Alternity]]'' Starscream transforms into a licensed 1:32 scale {{w|Mitsuoka Orochi}}. Like the other toys in the line, he features [[die-cast]] metal parts and rubber tires, as well as an opening hood, trunk and doors. This is also the only ''Alternity'' mold to feature [[Kibble#"Faux-parts"|a fake kibble chest]].

:In car mode, small wings are ''supposed to'' be able to flip out from under Starscream's rear wheels, giving him the appearance of a flying car. Unfortunately, this [[gimmick]] suffers from a rather nasty [[design flaw]]: there is simply not enough clearance under the car for the wheels to be able to pass and hinge through, and attempting to do so will result in the plastic reinforcement struts underneath ''deforming the rims and chipping the tires''. His door panels also tend to detach from their [[ball joint]]s ''very easily''.

:This mold, with a different head sculpt, was also used to make the simultaneously released ''Alternity'' [[Skywarp (G1)/toys#Alternity|Skywarp]], and later [[Thundercracker (G1)/toys#Alternity|Thundercracker]] and [[Banzai-Tron (G1)#Alternity|Banzai Tron]] as well.

: Released in the first wave of the [[Transformers (2010 toyline)|2010 ''Transformers'' toyline's]] ''[[Transformers (2010 toyline)#Hasbro Reveal the Shield subline|Reveal the Shield]]'' [[Legends Class (2005)|Legends Class]] toys, Starscream is a new sculpt based on his Generation 1 jet appearance with many fuselage details borrowed from the [[#Masterpiece|Masterpiece version]]. This is the first Starscream in many years to attempt an entirely new transformation for him, with the arms now forming the rear of the jet and the legs folding under the wings. Amusingly, he has ''two'' cockpits, with the one that is actually part of his jet mode folding ''right behind'' the [[kibble#faux-parts|fake]] one on his chest in robot mode. Starscream also sports a heat-sensitive [[rubsign]] on his starboard (right) wing.

: Early specimens of the toy released in Asia and at United States retail feature an unpainted gray-plastic helmet, a comparatively rare [[variant]]. This variant is the one featured in the Hasbro [[stock photography]], although the stock photo depicting the figure in [[multilingual packaging|European packaging]] has the more common black helmet, as this was the only version ever available at European retail.

: The "Reveal the Shield" Legends figures saw exceedingly limited release at large-scale retail chains in the US. Throughout 2011, they eventually started appearing in discount stores like Ross, TJ Maxx, Marshalls, and Tuesday Morning, with perhaps the largest and most consistent outlet being Five Below stores.

: This sculpt was also redecoed and retooled to make ''[[Transformers Chronicle (toyline)|Chronicle]]'' [[Thundercracker (G1)/toys#Chronicle|Thundercracker]] and [[Skywarp (G1)/toys#Chronicle|Skywarp]], as well as ''[[Transformers: Generations (toyline)|Generations]]'' [[Thundercracker (G1)/toys#Generations|Thundercracker]] and [[Transformers (2014 toyline)|''Transformers'' (2014)]] [[Skywarp (G1)/toys#Transformers (2014)|Skywarp]].

:Part of the first wave of ''[[Kre-O]]'' sets, Starscream can be built in either robot or red, white, and blue G1-inspired fighter jet. Although the head is based on G1 Starscream, the body's design, especially the broad body, is similar to [[Starscream (Movie)|movie Starscream]].

:The Starscream Kreon's helmet has been reused by a metric buttload of other Kreons. (That's 1.1 American buttloads.)

:This set was also available in a [[Costco]]-exclusive two-pack with the [[Prowl (G1)/toys#Kre-O|Prowl]] kit, which was basically just the two packages shrinkwrapped together.

{{note|This toy was [[repurposing|repurposed]] as Generation 1 Starscream in [[IDW Publishing]]'s ''[[The Transformers: Robots in Disguise|Robots in Disguise]]'' comics.}}

: Part of the third wave of [[2012]]-onwards ''[[Transformers: Generations (toyline)|Generations]]'' Deluxe Class toys, ''[[Transformers: Fall of Cybertron|Fall of Cybertron]]'' [[Starscream (WFC)#Generations|Starscream]] transforms into a Cybertronian jet fighter. He comes with two spinning, triple-barreled "assault cannons" which can combine to form a larger hand-held weapon that is geared to spin its two triple-barrels together, and resembles the [[Neutron assault rifle]] from ''Fall of Cybertron''. Each of the weapon halves features two [[5 mm post]]s, as well as a peg-hole on their hollow sides, while the combined form features another peg-hole at the top, but makes the peg-holes on the hollow sides inaccessible. Starscream features numerous 5mm peg-holes, such as his hands, forearms, lower legs, and wing undersides.

: In an undocumented feature, Starscream's tail-fin is attached via a 5 mm post on its underside, and can be detached to reveal three additional peg-holes, with two of these peg-holes being just the right distance to accommodate the two pegs found on the underside of the combined assault cannons/rifle, with the tail-fin pegging on the rifle's top peg-hole. This allows the weapon to mount on top of the vehicle mode, and store on his back in robot mode.

: He was later redecoed into ''Fall of Cybertron'' [[Skywarp (WFC)#Generations|Skywarp]] and ''Thrilling 30'' [[Thundercracker (G1)/toys#T30Deluxe|Thundercracker]] and [[Skywarp (G1)/toys#Thrilling 30|Skywarp]].

Based on a [[Guido Guidi]] [[Seeker (body-type)|seeker]] concept for the [[The Transformers (IDW)|first IDW ongoing series]], Starscream transforms from a hybrid F-15/F-22 style jet.

He comes with two removable null-rays that have both 5 mm and 3 mm pegs.

: Alluding to the ''[[Beast Wars: Transformers (cartoon)|Beast Wars]]'' episode "[[Possession]]", Starscream is partnered with [[Waspinator (BW)/toys#Generations|Waspinator]], who can transform into a wasp, a robot with 3 mm-compatible hands, and a gun with 5mm handle.

: Another release of the ''Reveal the Shield'' Legends Class sculpt, this time as an odd mish-mash of prior releases. The tooling is identical to the 2012 release's running change variant, with the retooled hands and holes inside his wings compatible with [[Cyberverse (toyline)|Cyberverse]] [[C joint|3mm]] pegs, while the deco is nigh-identical the ''[[Transformers Chronicle (toyline)|Chronicle]]'' release, with the fully-black hemlet making for a weird-looking jet-mode nosecone. The toy also now sports a large "CE" mark on the inside of one of the tailfins and number on the inner right leg, declaring the toy meets European product safety requirements. A later [[variant]] replaced the purple Decepticon insignia with black versions.

: Bizarrely, the [[package art]] is lifted directly from the ''Generations'' Legends Class Starscream/Waspinator two-pack's packaging, whereas the [[stock photography|stock photos]] depicted on the back of the packaging are taken from ''Reveal the Shield'' Starscream's packaging and only slightly altered, advertising a "[[Transformers (2010 toyline)#Hasbro Reveal the Shield subline|Reveal the Shield]]" [[rubsign]] [[gimmick]] the toy doesn't actually have. Meanwhile, Hasbro's official stock photos provided to online retailers (including an in-packaging photo) depict the toy with the null-rays that came with the running change variant of the sculpt's 2012 release, even though the actual toy doesn't include the weapons.

:Legion Class Starscream has been found at Family Dollar and Dollar General stores in the United States. The later version was also released at general retail in Australia, New Zealand, and Europe. This figure was re-released in 2017 in a minor variant of the 2014 version's packaging (including the original product code number and barcode) that now lacked the reference to the non-existing "Reveal the Shield" gimmick.

:Like [[Bumblebee (G1)/toys#Transformers (2014)|Bumblebee]] and [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys#Transformers (2014)|Optimus Prime]], the black insignia variant of the toy ended up being dumped to some hobby shop dealers in Asia, and even returned to discount stores like Five Below and 99 Cents Only in the US in 2020.

**''Pieces: '''40'''
: Part of Wave 1 of [[Construct-Bots]] Scouts, Starscream can transform into a jet. He has a paint error on his head, with his eyes colored blue instead of red. Also, only the left 1/3 of his helmet painted its proper black, with the rest being left in unpainted gray. Rarely 2/3 of it is black, and if you're lucky, the whole head might be black! Hallelujah!

:The box depicts him with Thundercracker's head, for some odd reason.

*'''Starscream''' (Action Figure, 2014)
**''Pieces: '''9'''
**''Accessories'': Wing-pack

: Part of the first wave of ''Transformers [[Hero Mashers]]'' basic Action Figures, Starscream 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. 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.

:Rather than coming with a (nominally) hand-held weapon accessory, Starscream comes with a wing-pack. Of course, being a ''Hero Mashers'' piece, it can be attached anywhere, including being hand-held, and the wings have multiple gun barrels on them, so have a blast.

: His right forearm was [[redeco]]ed to make [[Skywarp (G1)/toys#Hero Mashers|Skywarp]]'s arm in the [[Megatron (G1)/toys#Hero Mashers|Battle Upgrade Megatron]] set.

:Starscream's torso sculpt is noticeably similar to that of the [[Titan Heroes|Titan Guardian]] Starscream released at [[San Diego Comic-Con]] in [[2013]].

:''[[Power of the Primes (toyline)|Power of the Primes]]'' Starscream transforms from a robot that utilizes the [[Evergreen]]-styled design into a fighter jet. He also features some markings on his jet mode: an Autobot kill count on the right side of the cockpit, and a Decepticon symbol with the number "D-22" (a reference to Starscream's Japanese ID number). Starscream can also form the torso of [[Starscream Combiner|an unnamed combiner]] using any selection of ''[[Combiner Wars (toyline)|Combiner Wars]]''-style Deluxe Class figures as limbs. His instructions and [[TakaraTomy]] stock photos depict him with the ''Power of the Primes'' Deluxe Class figures from Wave 1. He also includes Prime Armor that can hold a [[Prime Master]] (and by extension, a [[Titan Master]], [[Enigma of Combination#Generations|Enigma]], or [[Matrix of Leadership/toys#Power of the Primes|Matrix core]]) and can turn into feet for said unnamed combiner. The silhouette of Starscream's torso mode appears to homage the robot mode of another [[Starscream (Movie)|Starscream]]. Like all the other Voyager Class figures, Starscream includes an Enigma of Combination (dubbed the ''Seeker Enigma''), based on a Prime Master, which can attach to Starscream via the previously mentioned Prime Armor or the combined mode chest, which can also facilitate the other previously mentioned objects.

:Though designated for a first quarter 2018 release, Starscream's wave reached U.S. store shelves in December 2017.

:There are several reports of the peg that connects the wings often refusing to connect well. In 2018, a running change was made in the re-release of the toy: the peg that connects between the wings and the robot back has been retooled to connect firmly. The only way to identify this running change is the code "73101" stamped onto the box.

:Starscream was later retooled into [[Elita One (G1)#Power of the Primes|Elita-1]].

:Part of the second wave of ''[[War for Cybertron: Siege|Siege]]'' Voyager Class figures, Starscream transforms from a heavily G1-inspired robot into a Cybertronian 'tetrajet' based on the [[Seeker (body-type)|Seekers']] appearance in "[[More than Meets the Eye, Part 1]]", although the jet mode has <s>the robot-mode legs</s> pretty much his ''entire robot body'' sticking out from the undercarriage. He includes two "HPI Null-Ray Laser Launchers," which can mount on his upper arms or under the wings in jet mode (or in any other 5 mm port, really). As part of the ''Siege'' [[C.O.M.B.A.T. System]], Starscream has 5 mm ports on his biceps, forearms, shins, under his feet (vehicle-mode thrusters), and wings. The 3 mm pegs on his shins, forearms, left bicep, and the tips of his null-rays can accommodate effects parts (sold separately). Similar to his wavemate [[Soundwave (G1)/toys#War for Cybertron: Siege|Soundwave]], Starscream is absolutely ''slathered'' in battle damage paint — it's heavily present on his legs, chest, forearms, and the ''entirety'' of his jet form.

:Like the rest of ''Siege'', his robot mode focuses on articulation, with double-jointed elbows, knees that bend at nearly 180 degrees, ankle rockers, and especially waist articulation being notable articulation points for a Starscream toy. As an interesting design addition, he also has spring-loaded panels in his lower legs to avoid hollow gaps when viewed from the back. As a rather heavy shellformer, Starscream can easily be separated into both a wingless robot mode and a nearly complete tetrajet via a single friction hinge.

:Speaking of friction hinges, the initial release of Starscream suffers from a production flaw: his robot-mode chest easily pops off during transformation as a result of a late design change that removed a pin from the chest without adjusting plastic tolerances. Said initial releases also use the live-action "angry eyes" design for his Decepticon insignia. One or both errors were corrected for later wave shipments; both were fixed by the time the figure shipped again with Voyager Class [[Springer (G1)/toys#War for Cybertron: Siege|Springer]]. While the pin wasn't added back in, the plastic used for the grey strut the chest piece attaches to uses a stiffer plastic that is less likely to cause it to pop off.

:Amusingly, the panel on his instruction sheet that demonstrates where to attach C.O.M.B.A.T. weapons depicts him mistransformed, with his left forearm opened along the transformation hinge. He is also slightly mistransformed in-package, with his arms rather adorably left unextended and the panel behind the head not being locked in place between the shoulder pylons.

:The original figure eventually became a notorious shelfwarmer, due to him being reissued in the third wave and coincidentally around the time that the ''Earthrise'' figure was revealed at NYCC 2019.

{{toydesigner|[[Shogo Hasui]] (TakaraTomy)}}

:Released as part of the ''[[War for Cybertron: Earthrise|Earthrise]]'' Voyager Class lineup, this version of Starscream is a cartoon-accurate mold. He transforms into an F-15 jet based on his traditional alternate mode and features a pair of G1-accurate null-rays. His design and transformation scheme is heavily based on his [[#Classics|2006 ''Classics'' figure]] while adding points of articulation the earlier figure did not have such as pivoting ankles, a more expressive ball-jointed head, and hinges that allow the wings to fold backward in robot mode.

:The stock renders have some minor differences from the prototype seen at New York Comic Con. The renders depict the section of his chest that covers part of his cockpit as being unpainted red. At the same time, the prototype has it painted a more animation-accurate white, also present on renders featuring [[Smashdown]], and ''four'' null-rays on his Jet mode, with two of them attached at the turbines of his chest, which is impossible to do on the toy. The render also depicts his shoulder joints as being molded in blue and knee joints in white, whereas the prototype has their colors swapped.

:While the null-rays can be wielded by his pair of hands, it's almost impossible for him to properly hold them due to the size of his forearms. He still can hold the [[Megatron_(G1)/Generations_toys#E33|Megatron]] gun from the ''Selects'' [[Centurion_droid#Toys|Centurion Droid]] very finely, though.

:At least ''one'' copy features a factory misassembled figure with a newly tooled head sculpt<ref>https://www.tfw2005.com/boards/threads/alternate-head-for-earthrise-starscream.1190272/</ref> (with his expression being based on him being disintegrated by Galvatron in ''The Transformers: The Movie'') which was meant for [[Skywarp (G1)/toys#War for Cybertron: Earthrise|Skywarp]].

:Like all Earthrise toys, the inside of the back of Starscream's package includes an exclusive clip-and-save piece of a larger star map. Also in the box is a thin red piece of transparent plastic with which to read markings on the map. Unusually for a larger Earthrise toy, Starscream's piece of the map does not contain the labeled location of a named planet; however, it does include an unlabeled image of the planet [[Jupiter]], slightly obscured by another smaller sphere. It also shows a sliver of [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]], one of several planets too big for one map piece.

:Both this release and all subsequent releases of the mold have a missing molded panel-line detail on the right wing hinge that is supposed to curve in towards the body of the jet. The reason for this missing detail is likely due to it missing from the metal mold itself.

:''[[War for Cybertron: Kingdom|Kingdom]]'' Core Class Starscream is a roughly Legends-sized toy that can interact with Titan Class figures, although its product description states that it is designed to pose with larger Starscream toys. The mold's sculpting is heavily inspired by its larger ''Earthrise'' counterpart, though featuring a gray pelvis instead of a red one and having the underside of Starscream's wings facing forward. Starscream comes with his signature weapons—a pair of null-rays, which can either be plugged into his arms or held as handguns.

:The peg holes featured on Starscream's shoulders are hexagonal as opposed to circular, which means that the Null Rays are prone to popping off when rotated onto that peg hole.

:Most (if not, ''all'') copies of the figure had the lower right leg's sculpted details being too slightly shallow compared to the left leg's.

However, this release was scrapped, likely due to [[#Studio Series|a retool of the same mold]] being released in the ''[[Studio Series]]'' toyline instead.

:Part of the 8th wave of ''[[Studio Series]]'' Leader Class toys, "Coronation Starscream" is a retool of the ''Earthrise'' Starscream [[#War for Cybertron: Earthrise|above]], with newly-molded hands with hinged knuckles, the coronation gear from ''[[The Transformers: The Movie]]'', a second pair of null-rays, and the ''[[Nemesis (G1)|Nemesis]]'' [[:File:Mtmte1 megatron throne.jpg|command chair]] from "[[More than Meets the Eye, Part 1]]." The toy lacks the paint applications on his tail fins and the gunmetal grey below and above his shin vents, but adds additional grey squares to his jet mode for [[:File:TFTM Starscream Jet.jpg|closer accuracy]] to the movie. Additionally, various colors are a slightly different shade (red is more crimson, helmet is more gunmetal, blue is more electric) and the Decepticon sigils on his wings are larger. Strangely, the pins on the legs of the ''Earthrise'' version have been swapped out for screws. Because of how the index-to-pinky fingers are designed, it results in a rather strange-looking fist when closed.

:The cape is sculpted plastic that is hinged to flair out like the [[#MP11|''Masterpiece'' MP-11 toy]] above, however the cape cannot flare up to a 90 degree angle without clashing against the ground. it also has a C.O.M.B.A.T. System-style 5 mm post, allowing [[:File:BlasterG2.jpg|anyone compatible]] to have a lavender cape. The shoulder pads feature flip-down panels with a 5 mm port to attach the differently-molded null-rays, designed to fit with the new armor pieces. By coincidence or design, these additional null-rays can fit into his new hands (if they are completely closed) without bumping into the forearms like the original pair. Naturally, these add-ons, barring the Coneheads for the crown, fit other versions of the ''Earthrise'' Seeker mold, so have fun!

: The "throne" features storage on the back for all the accessories, including multiple 5 mm ports. Starscream himself can only barely sit in it (without the cape on, of course), but the more source-appropriate ''[[War for Cybertron: Siege|Siege]]'' [[Megatron (G1)/Generations toys#War for Cybertron: Siege|Megatron]] toy fits in very nicely.

:Like all other uses of the mold, Starscream has a missing molded panel-line detail on the right wing hinge that is supposed to curve in towards the body of the jet. The reason for this missing detail is likely due to it missing from the metal mold itself.

:First revealed on the [[August 13]]th, 2021 [[Hasbro Pulse#Fan First Friday|Fan First Friday]], the toy is the first to show off the Leader Class window-less packaging, starting in 2022, which allows for expanded [[package art]]. The package art faithfully emulates Starscream's coronation in the movie down to [[Ramjet (G1)|Ramjet]] standing in the background to Starscream's left, but [[Thrust (G1)|Thrust]] is present instead of [[Astrotrain (G1)|Astrotrain]] on Starscream's right. Like the other ''Studio Series'' toys, the interior of the package forms a display backdrop. Starscream's backdrop depicts the [[Hall of Heroes]], where his ill-fated coronation took place.

{{toydesigner|[[Marcelo Matere]] (packaging artist)}}

:Walmart once again reissued the original Starscream toy in 2023 under the ''[[Transformers Retro]]'' label. Unlike the ''Vintage G1'' release, however, ''Retro'' Starscream has been redecoed in colors inspired by his appearance in the original ''Transformers'' animated series, more specifically ''The Transformers: The Movie''. He remains a mash-up of the ''Commemorative Series'' and ''The Transformers Collection'' reissues, with the former's elongated null rays and cluster bombs and the latter's gun mode Megatron accessory.

:Unlike the original versions of his fists from ''The Transformers Collection'' reissue, the fists of this version are cast in black plastic and ''painted'' blue. The added paint makes the post on the bottom of his fists thicker than they should be, so attaching the lower portion of the Megatron gun can be difficult.

:The box features original art by [[Marcelo Matere]]<ref>[https://twitter.com/marcelomatere/status/1578045800978223104 Marcelo Matere on Twitter]</ref> of Starscream with ''Earthrise''-inspired detailing in robot and vehicle mode laid over a scene of [[Autobot City (G1)|Autobot City]].

: Released as part of the ''[[Beast Wars: Super Lifeform Transformers Again|Beast Wars Again]]'' line, the "Phantom Showdown" (幽幻の対決) set pits "[[Waspinator (BW)/toys#BWVS08|Haunted Waspeeter]]" against "Ghost Starscream", a [[redeco]] of the [[#War for Cybertron: Earthrise|''Earthrise'' Starscream mold]] (with the hinged knuckles used for the [[#Studio Series|''Studio Series'' {{'}}86 figure]] and the pre-tooled alternate head released with [[Skywarp (G1)/toys#War for Cybertron: Earthrise|Skywarp]]) in mostly translucent plastic. Starscream also features red [[Decepticon]] [[insignia]] on his wings, in reference to the [[:File:Starscream ghost BW.jpg|odd color choices]] used for his [[character model]] in the ''[[Beast Wars: Transformers (cartoon)|Beast Wars]]'' episode "[[Possession]]".

: All of the parts that were originally cast in [[unpaintable plastic]] remain cast in opaque colors, as the unpaintable parts are required for the figure to function. This ultimately means that the full transparent "ghost" effect suffers as a result of the mold layout, since the parts that make up his biceps, forearms and hands are also a part of the unpaintable plastic molds.

Starscream was only available with [[Bumblebee (G1)/toys#Reactivate|Bumblebee]]. Care should be taken when unclipping Starscream's head during transformation, as it latches in place for robot mode with a ''very'' small, but very secure hook that will bend or break under pressure.

: This boxset was abruptly revealed by [[Toys"R"Us]] Canada on October 18, 2023, after nearly ten months of silence regarding the upcoming ''[[Transformers: Reactivate]]'' online game. Notably, stock photography of the box and the official product copy used "Rise", an earlier name for the game; Yet it was changed when it was shown off on the Hasbro Pulse Fanstream.

==Notes==
[[File:G2SSJungleprotojet.jpg|upright=1.1|thumb]]
* During the development of the [[Conehead]]s, [[Ramjet (G1)/toys|Ramjet]] was initially planned as new wing tooling attached to an unchanged Starscream body. This [[prototype]] plan lasted long enough to receive [[package art]], which was published decades later in ''[[Legacy: The Art of Transformers Packaging]]''.
* In the 1990s, Hasbro evidently had more redeco plans for Starscream (and the paired [[Ramjet (G1)/toys#Generation 2|Ramjet]]) that fell through:
** A hand-painted mock-up and accompanying artwork for a proposed Generation 2-era redeco of Starscream appeared in auctions on eBay, amongst similar items put up for sale from the collection of a former Hasbro employee. In [[2020]], this black redeco of Starscream was revealed to have been labeled by Hasbro as "[[Blackout (G2)|Blackout]]". Said redeco was probably planned for release alongside the Ramjet redeco named "[[Sandstorm (G2)|Sandstorm]]".
** Another unproduced redeco of Starscream for the ''Generation 2'' line was found in 2007, in an auction on eBay. It is commonly known to the fandom as "jungle attack Starscream" (as seen to the right). It is unclear if it was intended to be another Starscream toy or a new character; it may have been paired for release with "[[Cloudcover|cloud camo Ramjet]]", who was discovered at a similar level of "completion".
* During early planning for ''Beast Wars'', Hasbro conceived [[McDonald's]] toys of vehicular [[Auto Roller (G2)|Auto Roller]]s, including one of Starscream as a jet.<ref>[https://www.instagram.com/p/CJIcRo5Aqym/ ]</ref> This toy concept may have been a parallel idea to the unreleased ''Generation 2'' [[jet Auto Roller]] ultimately used in Japan as ''Beast Wars II'' [[Autojetter#Toys|Autojetter]].
* Aside from Starscream's ''Unite Warriors'' Deluxe Class toy (as the alternate head of ''Combiner Wars'' [[Skydive (G1 Aerialbot)#Generations|Skydive]]) and his ''Power of the Primes'' Voyager Class toy (as his own body tooling), Hasbro also designed an unused combining body for Starscream as the "pretooled" alternate head of ''Combiner Wars'' Voyager Class [[Cyclonus (G1)/toys#Combiner Wars|Cyclonus]]. Presumably, the [[Galvatronus (CW)#Toys|Galvatronus]] Combiner head would be redecoed in homage to Starscream's famous crown.

Many toys have been made of '''[[Generation 1 continuity family|Generation 1]] [[Megatron (G1)|Megatron]]'''. So many, in fact they have to get their own page!

Due to the popularity of the character and the evergrowing Generation 1 continuity family, this article had become far too large, causing internet browsers to struggle loading all of its contents—and in the most extreme cases—crashing entirely. For the sake of a nice clean split, we have opted to move all of Megatron's ''[[Transformers: Generations (toyline)|Generations]]'' toys into a separate article which can be found '''[[Megatron (G1)/Generations toys|here]]'''.

{{toydesigner|[[Hideaki Yoke]] and [[Takashi Matsuda]] (TakaraTomy)}}

: Released in the first year of the ''[[The Transformers (toyline)|Transformers]]'' toyline, Megatron transforms into an accurate replica of a Walther P-38 pistol... specifically, the unique, specialized Walther pistol seen in the popular 1960s spy television series ''{{w|The Man from U.N.C.L.E.}}'' <ref>"U.N.C.L.E. Special" Carbine at CIA Museum, [http://web.archive.org/web/20100324191047/https://www.cia.gov/about-cia/cia-museum/spy-fi-archives/item08.html archived version]</ref>, with its specialized scope, silencer and stock. In robot mode, the sight doubles as his signature arm-mounted [[fusion cannon]], but can also be combined with the other attachments to form either a "[[Particle beam cannon|Particle Beam Cannon]]" weapons emplacement that Megatron can man, or a "Telescopic Laser Cannon" that connects to the figure as an over-shoulder weapons array. Megatron also came with a chromed silver "high-density infrared laser cannon" that plugs into either of his hands.

: The toy was originally the Takara ''[[Microman]]'' "Gun Robo - P38 U.N.C.L.E." (it also came in other colors with other accessories, which will come up later), which had several features that were altered or omitted from the Hasbro version. The Gun Robo featured a spring-loaded firing mechanism that allowed the toy to shoot ([[for safety reasons|dangerously small]]) plastic bullets one at a time from its barrel. A similar launching mechanism was also built into the stock piece, which could launch the bullets when the accessories were configured into their weapons emplacement mode, or attach to its hip when in robot mode and launch the bullets through his barrel. This feature was removed completely from the Hasbro release of the toy (rather than merely weakened like most launching gimmicks), though the ports into which the bullets were inserted are still present. The stock/scope/silencer pieces can also form a turret that a ''Microman'' figure can sit on and operate (that's what the tiny handles on Megatron's fusion cannon are for), but this feature was naturally left out of the ''Transformers'' version's instructions.

: Megatron has had several variations, reissues and [[redeco]]s released down through the years; this article strives to list each distinct edition of the toy under its own respective series. The earliest variation of the toy came in 1985, when (like all toys originally available in 1984) a factory-applied [[rubsign]] was added to Megatron's right arm, while another version had the rub sign on his left hip guard.

: The following year, when he was no longer a part of the toy assortment sold at retail, Megatron was made available as a mail-away item in the "[[Digital Doom on the Highway to Destruction (G1)|Digital Doom on the Highway to Destruction]]" flier packed in with boxed ''Transformers'' toys. He cost $21.50 and five [[Robot Point]]s. To coincide with the [[The Transformers: The Movie|1986 animated movie]] release, he was also offered in "[[The Autobots Have A Special Mission For...]]" mail-away pamphlet and came with a special "Movie Edition Certificate" and a round sticker that read "Movie . Edition . Transformer" with the Autobot symbol in the middle; this item is now considered particularly rare.

: Perhaps the most significant variant of Megatron released in these early years was the version of the figure released by [[TakaraTomy|Takara]] in Japan. Instead of using the ''Microman'' "U.N.C.L.E." figure as Hasbro had, Takara released the ''standard'' version of the Gun Robo P-38 ''Microman'' figure, in its grey color scheme, which featured flat grey plastic on the chest and arms (where Hasbro's toy was chromed), and blue plastic on the inner arms and legs (where Hasbro's was red). Most notably, like that standard ''Microman'' figure, Takara's Megatron did not come with the stock, silencer and scope accessories (lacking even the attachment point for his cannon on his right arm), but instead came with a silver-chromed sword, and retained his original bullet-firing mechanism. Takara's [[package art]] for the figure was an entirely different illustration from the Hasbro version, showing this toy's accessories, but it still erroneously showed the figure with red plastic on its limbs. This coloration was later [[Repurposing|repurposed]] by [[e-HOBBY]] for a new character named [[Megaplex#Toys|Megaplex]].

: Megatron is probably the most troubled ''Transformers'' toy in all of ''Transformers''<nowiki>'</nowiki> history, due to being originally developed in a country which had different toy [[For safety reasons#Firearm replicas|safety laws regarding firearm replicas]]. The measures required to alter the toy to not look a realistic firearm enough to be legally sold at retail vary from region to region, with even ''completely un-gun-like colors'' not being enough in some areas. This has of course prevented any reissues of the toy to be released in the US, where it is distressingly easy to own a ''real'' Walther P-38 handgun.

: In Japan, Megatron was also made available in a special two-pack with [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys#The Transformers|Optimus Prime]]. Both toys were identical to their individual releases. In Megatron's case, that means unchromed gray plastic, blue instead of red, and a functional firing mechanism and sword, instead of the scope, silencer and stock.

: This box also used an altered version of the individual release's box-art, turning his head sideways to face Prime, as opposed to the original's camera-facing head position.

: Megatron was released again as part of a special "Good Bye" set to commemorate his passing ([[Galvatron (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|of sorts]]) in ''[[The Transformers: The Movie]]'', packaged with [[Starscream (G1)/toys#The Transformers|Starscream]] (who also was now no more). Although it still lacked the chrome seen on the Hasbro version of the toy, this edition of the figure replaced the blue plastic seen on previous Takara releases with Hasbro's show-accurate red, and included the fusion cannon accessory for the first time with a Takara release, complete with the mounting point now added to Megatron's right arm. Though still lacking the silencer and stock, the toy retained its Japanese-exclusive sword accessory and its bullet-firing mechanism, with one modification: the bullets, formerly blue, were now red.

: Despite the change to the toy's colors, the box art on this set, the same art used for the [[Hasbro]] releases, was recolored to match the blue of the ''previous'' releases. Whoops.

:*''Accessories'': Neutro-Fusion Tank, 4 missiles, "twin laser cannon"

: Released in the seventh and final year of the US ''Transformers'' line (sixth and non-final in Europe), [[Action Master]] Megatron is a 3¾-inch non-transforming action figure based heavily upon the character's animation model design. His construction is broadly similar to that used by the ''[[G.I. Joe (franchise)|G.I. Joe]]'' figures of the time, having a swivel neck, shoulders and knees, plus ball-jointed hips attached via a steel rod internally secured by a rubber "o-ring". His hands have standard 3 mm holes which allow him to hold any other accessory in the Action Master line, plus his feet have holes in the bottom to secure him to larger vehicles. On top of that, the hole in his back is compatible with [[5 mm post]]s.

: He came packaged with the [[Neutro-Fusion Tank]], a large tank vehicle whose hull could transform into a base/gun emplacement, with the turret forming a flight pod.

: In a fairly notable omission, ''Action Master'' Megatron did not come with the character's iconic fusion cannon accessory. In 1992, however, a Japanese fan sculpted his own cannon accessory, which could plug into the figure's arm using the shoulder peg-hole (seen in the image at right). In a surprising move, Takara gave this cannon their approval and allowed it to be officially sold with their copyright stamp at a Japanese convention {{fact|which one?}} for only one day, at the price of 2000 yen.

:*''ID number'': '''16-S'''
:*''Accessories'': Silencer, stock, telescopic sight/"fusion cannon", "high-density infrared laser cannon", sword, 20 bullets

: Where the original Takara Megatron toy made use of one of the two color schemes of the original ''Microman'' MC-12 Gun Robo P38 toy, this redeco of the 2000 reissue Megatron is an homage to the ''second'', black color scheme for the ''Microman'' toy, though serving more as a "What If" for the black MC-12 if it had received the U.N.C.L.E. upgrade with chrome and red plastic like its grey and blue brother. Available exclusively through [[e-HOBBY]] and pre-orders at [[BotCon Japan 2000]], "Megatron Black Version" features dark gunmetal chrome, black plastic instead of grey, and distinctive metallic brown gun handle-grips, fists and "inner helmet". The chrome replaces the flat black plastic chest and arms of the original ''Microman'' toy, while the original MC-12's blue has been swapped to traditional Megatron/U.N.C.L.E. package red. The toy was limited to 1000 pieces.

: Sadly, the metallic brown plastic is the sparkly, swirled type and suffers from [[Gold Plastic Syndrome]]. Pegging the sword or rifle into the robot hands or attaching the stock to the handle in gun mode is highly inadvisable unless you only want to do it once.

: This set shippeed out to buyers in February of 2001. e-HOBBY later reissued Megatron Black Version in February 2009, now in [[The Transformers: Collector's Edition|Collector's Edition]] packaging. This release includes a [[Destron Leader Megatron Black Ver.|mini-comic]] explaining the story behind the redeco.

*'''Megatron''' (Decepticon, 1992)
**''Accessories'': Rifle, 6 missiles, sight

: Owing to Hasbro's [[for safety reasons|inability]] to re-release the original Megatron because that toy was a pistol, ''[[Transformers: Generation 2 (toyline)|Generation 2]]'' instead saw the release of an entirely new Megatron toy in 1992, now as a large green M1A1 Abrams main battle tank. His main gimmick is his gravity-fed cannon, which holds four of his missiles at once (the remaining two can store in clips inside his legs) and can rapidly launch them one after the other. Pulling back on the cannon's tab drops a missile into the firing tube and triggers a "lock and load" sound effect, and pressing the launch button is accompanied by a firing sound effect. In tank mode, pressing a panel on his forward section trigger's the toy's infamous battle cry of '''"Megatron Attack!"''', while pressing down on the tank body while it is on a flat surface activates engine noises.

: In robot mode, Megatron is, by the standards of the time, a very large robot, towering over all ''Generation 2'' incarnations of Optimus Prime. His legs are immobile, but he has upper shoulder rotation and elbow joints; when raised, his left arm triggers an electronic laser sound effect. His cannon and all its sound effects still work in this mode, as does his "Megatron Attack!" sound effect, now triggered by pressing down on the figure's head. Megatron also features an autotransforming gimmick on the head, as it pops out once the cannon is slid to the right.

: This sculpt was slightly [[redeco]]ed (with new stickers) as ''[[Transformers: Beast Wars (Japanese toyline)#BWII|Beast Wars II]]'' [[Megastorm#Toys|Megastorm]].

: Furthermore, a [[retool]]ed version of the toy's lock-and-load shoulder cannon (or a new sculpt heavily based on it) was used as the main cannon on the [http://www.yojoe.com/sgtsavage/panther.shtml I.R.O.N Panther Tank] in the very short-lived 1995 ''[[G.I. Joe (franchise)|G.I. Joe]]'' line ''Sgt. Savage and his Screaming Eagles''.

*'''Megatron''' (Hero, 1993)
**''Takara ID number:'' '''TRF-2'''
**''Accessories'': Rifle, 2 air-launch missiles

: Megatron was released again the following year as [[Hero (G2)|Hero]] Megatron: a smaller, but similarly styled tank based off the M1 Abrams. In both modes his main cannon is attached to a bellows that launches the included air-propelled missiles when quickly compressed. Both missiles can be kept on Megatron thanks to clips on his turret, which become his robot mode arms, which can also kinda simulate the "classic" Megatron arm cannon to boot by turning them so their warheads point backwards.

: Hero Megatron was designed with articulation in mind, so he is loaded with multiple swivel and universal joints, giving him far greater movement compared to his original ''Generation 2'' toy. However, it's really just friction that keeps his joints tight and his parts together in [[alternate mode|vehicle mode]] (no pegs or clips) so after a bit of time and play, he turns pretty floppy. The joints connecting his biceps to his shoulders are also reportedly easy to break due to overly-tight tolerances, so caution is advised.

*'''Megatron''' (Go-Bot, 1995)
**''Accessories'': Rifle

: Part of the second assortment of [[Go-Bot (G2)|Go-Bots]], this version of Megatron is a mild [[redeco]] of the Autobot [[Blowout#Toys|Blowout]], transforming into a 1:64-scale sports car similar to a {{w|Porsche 959}} and through-axle construction. This not only makes him roll exceptionally fast in car mode, but also makes him largely compatible with playsets from the "Hot Wheels" and "Matchbox" toy-car lines.

: Megatron and Blowout share the same blue and black inner robot colors, but Megatron uses opaque silver plastic with a shiny metallic silver paint overcoat, as opposed to Blowout's smoky-clear plastic. (All of the toys from the first wave that had transparent plastics were released in this wave with opaques instead; Blowout and [[Firecracker#Toys|Firecracker]] became new versions of Megatron and [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys#GobotOptimusPrime|Optimus Prime]] respectively, while [[Gearhead#Toys|Gearhead]] and [[Motormouth#Toys|Motormouth]] stayed themselves.)

: In Europe, this deco was sold as Blowout himself rather than Megatron (at least in the French/Dutch/German packaging variant).

: Megatron was one of only three Go-Bots sold in the ''G-2'' line, but it was a... weird release. His hood was tampographed with a stylized "T" with the ''Transformers'' logo set within the top bar, the same deco that appears on Go-Bots [[Soundwave (G1)/toys#Generation 2|Soundwave]], as well as the Japanese release of Go-Bots [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys#GobotOptimusPrime|Optimus Prime]]. These three toys were sold on cards that were nigh-identical to the Hasbro cards on the front, rather than the usual ''G-2'' style packaging, with only a small bit of Japanese text on the front in the logo. The back side is stylistically close to the ''Generation 2'' packaging, but a "generic" cardback used for all three toys and entirely in Japanese. It's unclear why these toys were released this way; it's possible these were sold in convenience stores or some other similar outlet rather than in conventional toy stores/departments. Even more oddly, the Megatron shown on the cross-sell is actually a Frenzy with the car panels hand-painted back to silver, and lacks the "T" on the hood.

: This sculpt was also redecod for the third wave of Go-Bots to become [[Frenzy (G1)/toys#Generation 2|Frenzy]], and later still into the [[Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2001 toyline)|2001 ''Robots in Disguise'']] [[Spychanger]] [[Hot Shot (RID)#Toys|Hot Shot]].

**''Accessories'': rifle, 2 air-launch missiles

: This Megatron was to be a kinda-sorta "arctic"-camo version of the [[#Hero|Hero Megatron]] toy. Packaged samples of this toy were produced, but it was ultimately never released.

: Since much of the advertising for the ultimately unreleased redeco used an older, outdated name for the "Heroes" assortment, "Combat Heroes", Megatron and an [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys#HeroRecolorOptimusPrime|equally unreleased redeco of "Hero" Optimus Prime]] are commonly referred to by fans as "Combat Heroes" compared to the original "Heroes" releases, although all evidence suggests that Hasbro had never actually intended such a distinction, instead treating them as mere color variants. Though the packaging is mostly unchanged (including a reuse of the existing packaging art depicting the original release's color scheme), one of the few minor alterations sees the addition of the name "Hero" (rather than "Combat Hero") to Megatron's name above the (otherwise unchanged) UPC barcode.

: At [[BotCon 1996]], a donated Hero Megatron redeco was one of the items in the charity auction, along with several other canceled ''Generation 2'' toys.

*'''Megatron''' (Advanced Tactical Bomber, limited test market release, [[1995]])
**''Accessories'': 12 missiles, 2 missile launchers

: A planned-but-more-or-less-cancelled redeco of ''Generation 2'' [[Dreadwing (G2)#Toys|Dreadwing]], this two-pack of Megatron and [[Starscream (G1)/toys#ATB|Starscream]] was only released to test markets in [[Ohio]], USA in very limited quantities, and never saw a wide release. Some of the few known specimens have [[KB Toys|Kay-Bee Toys]] price stickers on their boxes. Megatron and Starscream combine to form a "flying wing" Advanced Tactical Bomber, with an under-slung six-missile gatling cannon that can rapid-fire six missiles by twisting the back end. Each wing can store three more missiles, which can "carpet-bomb" targets below by pressing the pressure-launch buttons above each. Removing Starscream from the jet mode triggers an autotransformation mechanism in Megatron's wings, folding them up and starting him on his way to his third mode as a treaded "tank." According to the Toy Fair 1995 Transformers presentation, the toy's missiles were intended to glow in the dark.

: With this release effectively cancelled, the toy was instead made available, with some small but significant deco changes, in the ''[[Transformers: Beast Wars (Japanese toyline)#1998 (Beast Wars II)|Beast Wars II]]'' toyline as [[BB (BW)#Toys|BB]] and [[Starscream (BW)#Toys|Starscream]]. Remember that ATB Megatron uses light gray plastic rather than BB's silver plastic, lacks chrome on his wings, and has pale, supposed-to-glow-in-the-dark missiles rather than bright yellow. The missiles are also [[retool]]ed with a different, pointier back-end, indicating the launchers' interiors were also retooled; this tooling is completely different from the retooling done to each individual later use of the mold, meaning ''none'' of the missiles are interchangeable between them. Of course the stickers are also different, but those can be replicated and put onto a BB, so heads up!

**''Accessories'': Two-part rifle

:Designed for ''Generation 2'' but not seeing release before the line's demise, this mold transforms into a [[Popular Earth vehicle alternate modes|Lockheed-Martin F-22 Raptor fighter jet]]. The figure is a "flipchanger", meaning most of the transformation sequence is an [[autotransformation]], springing into robot mode by lifting a catch. The two halves of the rifle store in the back of the robot legs while in vehicle mode.

:It is unknown if this green figure would have been released as a new character or a recurring one; the latter is likely given Hasbro's general pattern with 1995 trademarks, and the headsculpt certainly implies the Megatron identity. It is ''vaguely'' possible flipchanger "Megatron" and "[[Thundercracker (G1)/toys#Generation 2|Thundercracker]]" would have been the mysterious ''Generation 2'' listings designated "[[Solar Jet]]s", with "[[Mirage (G1)/toys#G2Flipchanger|Mirage]]" and [[Hoist (G1)/toys#Generation 2|Hoist]]" as "[[Solarbot#Notes|Solarbot]]s", but no ''Generation 2'' flipchanger packaging has ever surfaced to confirm this hypothesis.

Megatron transforms via a spring-loaded one-step process, and his removable [[beast mode]] tail hides a non-firing blaster cannon that becomes a hand-held weapon for his robot mode.

:This mold was redecoed into the purple Megalligator ([[#CDgator|see below]]), released individually to be his own character [[Megalligator]] and a different redeco was proposed for the unproduced [[Albitron]]. The Iguanus version of the mold was redecoed into [[Crazybolt (BW)|Crazybolt]].

: Oddly, the ''Machine Wars'' stock photos (and even the boxart) portray Megatron as the gray F-22 jet and Megaplex as the blue one, the ''opposite'' of the actual toys. This means that either the package designers made the mistake, or the toys were packaged on the wrong cards. The latter is more likely, since gray is more associated with Megatron than blue... but we list them how they were packaged, oh well.

Each fist also features a tab on its underside, into which Megatron's handle can be inserted, completing the effect. Megatron can also attach to Starscream's jet mode; the right-hand side of Megatron's handle features a square peg which is designed to fit snugly in gaps in Starscream's pectorals, as in the Generation 1 episode, "[[S.O.S. Dinobots]]". Unfortunately, this peg has, for no fathomable reason, been cast in the same sky blue color as Starscream's hands, unnecessarily making it ''as obtrusive as humanly possible''. An additional tabbed right fist for [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys#Generation 1|Optimus Prime]] (complementing his then-upcoming ''Transformers Collection'' [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys#Transformers Collection|Convoy]] release) was included as well.

In an attempt to convince Toys"R"Us (the retailer through whom the line was exclusively available) to carry the toy, ''Transformers'' Lead Designer, [[Aaron Archer]] worked on a proposed extensive redeco of the figure, replacing its silver chrome with blue and its grey plastic with bright orange, including the tip of his silencer, in accordance with standard safety measures taken with toy guns. Even this was not enough to convince the chain to release the figure and it was shelved, but the design was shown to fans at [[BotCon 2002]], where it was noted that a potential way to the market the unusually-colored toy would have been to brand it as "'''Lava Megatron'''", depicting the Decepticon leader after his dunk in lava at the end of the cartoon episode, "[[Heavy Metal War]]". Fans, however, had another nickname for it that became better known: "'''Safety Megatron'''". Notably, this version of the toy would apparently have come with Megatron's Japanese-exclusive sword accessory.

: ''[[Smallest Transforming Transformers]]'' Megatron was released in the second wave of the diminutive Takara toyline, including only his fusion cannon. Easily the most complex of the ''Smallest Transforming'' figures, Megatron is a just-barely-simplified version of his original Generation 1 toy, possessing the same [[transformation scheme]] and retaining most of his articulation. The transformation step involving sliding his chest upwards away from his hips is extremely difficult and will usually result in the chest popping off; this is fixable.

:Just as ''Smallest Transforming'' Optimus Prime's trailer was released as a separate figure in the line, so too were a set of silencer and stock attachments originally intended to be released for Megatron in the line's third wave. Unfortunately, this wave, and most of the other original figures it was set to contain, was cancelled, and so Megatron was left under-armed.

Once the Reverse Blaster is removed, the toy's "Rebirth Megatron" head can be rotated out from the back of the cannon to take the place of Reverse Convoy's head between the figure's shoulders.

:''20th Anniversary'' Optimus Prime included an accessory of Megatron in his classic Walther P-38 altmode. Although non-transforming, it is quite detailed and includes the individually removable silencer / barrel extension, scope, and (hinged) stock. Although notionally [[scale]]d to be wielded by Prime, Megatron is really rather small, so a diagonal sliding joint is added to his handle, allowing it to be lengthened and narrowed enough so that Prime can actually hold it. Both the stock and the sliding butt-end of the handle are made of a soft, rubbery vinyl, compared to the hard plastic of the other pieces. The stock extension connecting clamp is prone to breakage, much to the chagrin of owners who keep theirs sealed and untouched.

:Needless to say, the later-released ''[[The Transformers: Masterpiece|Masterpiece]]'' [[Starscream (G1)/toys#Masterpiece|Starscream]] (and [[Skywarp (G1)/toys#Masterpiece|his]] [[Thundercracker (G1)/toys#Masterpiece|redecoes]]) can also hold this version of Megatron, and each include a small round clip that plugs in under their nosecones, allowing them to wield Megatron while in jet mode, as Starscream did in "[[S.O.S. Dinobots]]".

:As the ''Masterpiece'' Optimus Prime mold has been has re-released multiple times, so too has Megatron. He was made available again without changes as an accessory for Takara's MP-4, "[[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys#MP4|Convoy Perfect Edition]]" and MP-1L, "[[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys#MP1L|Convoy Last Production]]", and Hasbro's "[[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys#20thDVD|DVD Edition]]", but has also been redecoed several times: these distinct new versions of Megatron are listed below.

{{toydesigner|[[Hisashi Yuki]] (TakaraTomy)}}

: Scaled to the same height as ''20th Anniversary'' Optimus Prime and designed in only twelve days by [[Hisashi Yuki]],<ref name="mpmegsdev">[http://www.tfw2005.com/transformers-news/transformers-masterpiece-47/takaratomy-staff-interview-hisashi-yuki-on-masterpiece-180888/ TakaraTomy Staff Interview - Hisashi Yuki on Masterpiece]: - I hear the first Masterpiece figure you created was MP-5 Megatron and you hold the fastest development record with it.
[Yuki]: That is right. (*laughs) I was not assigned to be in charge of it initially, but due to the circumstance within the company I was unexpectedly handed down the project. The schedule came with it and I was stunned when I realised that I was only given 12 days, about 2 weeks...To make it worse, at the time of my receiving the task, even the product size wasn't decided. (*tears)</ref> ''Masterpiece'' Megatron is an incredibly complex figure—potentially one of, if not ''the'', most complicated ''Transformers'' toys to date—designed to depict a fairly [[Show-accuracy|show-accurate]] Megatron capable of transforming into a realistic (if oversized) Walther P-38. In achieving this seemingly impossible goal, Megatron winds up with the least articulation of the ''Masterpiece'' line, as well as a notably low percentage of die-cast metal.

: Like Prime before him, Megatron comes with several of his iconic accessories from the Generation 1 cartoon: his energon mace from "More than Meets the Eye, Part 2", the energy dagger and laser pistol used in his duel against Prime in ''[[The Transformers: The Movie]]'', and a tiny translucent [[Kremzeek#Masterpiece|Kremzeek]] figure. His fusion cannon also contains a powerful red LED activated when the round detailing on the side of his cannon is pressed. Unfortunately, Megatron lacks the extended-stock and silencer parts to complete his gun mode, leaving him as a standard pistol aside from the mounted-scope made from his Fusion Cannon.

: Due to concern surrounding updated realistic toy gun laws, some online importers modified ''Masterpiece'' Megatron in order to safely get the toy through United States customs. This customarily involved inserting plugs into the tip of the toy's barrel, from rounded red ones affixed by adhesive to [[:File:HLJplug.jpg|flat-tipped yellow ones]] that could be easily removed. Ultimately, there were no reports of problems with the toy making its way into America, but Australia was another matter. Considered a replica gun and therefore a "restricted import" by Australian Customs, both mass shipments and individual packages of the toy were seized, requiring buyers in some areas to obtain a special permit to own him.

: Given the relatively thin clips throughout the toy to hold it tightly together in gun mode, Megatron's plastic components are particularly prone to breakage, especially on the clips on the upper black grip plates and some of the silver sections near the trigger. Many owners of this figure have also reported rust and tarnish problems on what few metal pieces he has; if your Megatron is a sufferer, check out [http://seibertron.com/energonpub/viewtopic.php?t=16106 this guide] for solutions.

Both the sliding butt-end of the handle and the stock have been molded in hard plastic instead of the soft rubbery vinyl of the MP-01 version. A joint has been added to the stock connection point on the handle; for the joint in the stock itself, a straight pin has replaced the original rivet-style pin the softer plastic required. The stock itself no longer emulates the transforming accessory from the G1 toy, and instead features a smaller cylindrical shaft that more closely resembles the original U.N.C.L.E Special. In terms of deco, the minute red paint application on the scope is omitted.

{{toydesigner|[[Yuki Ohshima]] (concept artist)}}

:The second ''[[The Transformers: Masterpiece|Masterpiece]]'' version of Megatron transforms from a more accurate-looking and well-articulated robot mode into a more realistically-sized gun; those extra design goals make this figure's transformation even more challenging than the 2007 figure (and, really, anything else). He comes with the stock and silencer parts for the gun that the MP-5 mold was missing, which can be combined to create both the "telescopic laser cannon" and "particle beam cannon" arrays the pieces were capable of forming on the Generation 1 toy; the stock also transforms into a "flight stand" that can support the figure in mid-air. In addition to his "regular" face, Megatron has alternate angry and smiling faces, plus a fourth, damaged face that, together with an alternate damaged chestplate, replicates his injuries from ''[[The Transformers: The Movie]]''. When his face is removed, it exposes a detailed recreation of the interior of his head as it was shown during the "x-ray" sequence in the film, when he was reformatted into Galvatron.

:Like the previous ''Masterpiece'' figure, Megatron comes with the pistol and energy dagger used during his battle with Prime in the movie, and his energon mace from "More than Meets the Eye, Part 2," which this time comes with a jointed plastic chain that allows the weapon to be posed dynamically, in addition to a regular, "real" chain. Finally, he also comes with a diecast Key to Vector Sigma from the [[The Key to Vector Sigma, Part 1|two]]-[[The Key to Vector Sigma, Part 2|part]] Generation 1 cartoon episode of the same name, and the clone control helmet he wore in "[[A Prime Problem]]."

:Unfortunately, this figure is prone to paint damage on areas that scrape together during transformation. Significant care must be taken when covering the robot face with the chestplate (or you can just take the face off beforehand as a precaution). It is apparently impossible to attach the silencer without scraping some paint off the gun barrel, not helped by the fact of some copies having the silencer stuck due to the inner plastic piece meant to slide inside the gun barrel being too thick.

:Megatron holds the distinction of being the first ''Masterpiece'' figure with a soundbox, activated by pressing a button on the fusion cannon, with a red switch to give a selection. The three positions of the cannon's sliding switch now denote a singular laser noise, the transformation sound effect (played forwards and backwards), and five speech clips by his Japanese voice actor, [[Seizō Katō]]: "Wa-ha-ha-ha, kono orokamono-me!" (Bwah ha ha ha! You fools!), "Eei, Cybertron o hineri-tsubuse!" (Hrr--crush the Autobots!), "Kono yaku-tatazu mono ga!" (You're all useless!), "Eei, hakai shite kureru wa!" (Grrah, I'll destroy you!), and "Destron gundan, transform!" (Decepticon army, transform!). Due to Katō's death three years prior, Megatron's clips were reused from the 2005 reissue Galvatron.

:When purchased in some non-Japanese online stores like [[BigBadToyStore]], Megatron comes with an orange plug.

:A redeco of MP-36, this Megatron replicates his [[#Generation 1|Generation 1 toy's appearance]], complete with vacuum-metalized parts and several stickers. Subsequently, most of the original MP-36 accessories are omitted, such as the Key to Vector Sigma, Clone Control Helmet, and the 1986 movie accessories. However, it maintains all face plates based from the MP-36 mold, but with yellow eyes, and suitable for either figure, as well as adding a shiny chromed version of the cartoon-accurate chest plate, for those who prefer to interpret the Megatron's coloring in the cartoon as silver rather than gray.

:In aid of the "toy-accurate" theme, Megatron's gun barrel is now nominally positioned next to his right hip rather than on his back; this required no retooling as it can also be achieved with the regular MP-36. Among the toy-accurate deco enhancements is the addition of Decepticon logos onto the handle of the gun mode. Due to the transformation pattern, these logos end up [[Wikipedia:tramp stamp|amusingly placed]] on his butt.

:When purchased from a seller supplied by Hasbro Asia, MP-36+ comes with a collector coin. The coin and the card it's mounted on appear almost identical to the one included with the original version, except for a "+" added on the reverse side of the coin, and the "2018" date stamp on the back of the card.

*'''Megatron''' (6" Cybertron Heroes, 2006)
**''Accessories'': Stand with nameplate
{{toydesigner|[[Don Figueroa]] (concept artist)}}

:Part of the very first wave of six-inch ''[[Titanium Series]]'' toys, Megatron was inspired by [[Dreamwave Productions]]' first ''[[Transformers/G.I. Joe]]'' comic book series, set in an alternate-reality World War II. Since the gun mode Megatron sported in that story was nonviable as a toy, this toy features a newly-designed tank alternate mode of made-up model. The backstory of the Megatron from the crossover, including references to Cobra, was retained on the package, make it the first U.S. figure ever produced as part of a ''G.I. Joe / [[Transformers brand|Transformers]]'' crossover.

:The toy suffers from a number of unusual shortcomings, and proved a rather hefty [[shelfwarmer]]. Notably, due to a large number of [[design flaw]]s, it is known to fall apart very easily, with the crotch coming undone with minimal force and the arms and legs often popping off over the course of basic transformation or even movement. In particular, the lower body is attached to the torso by very thin open clips, unsuited for holding up the weight of entirely [[die-cast]] legs, and the lower arms, which need to be pulled out, are extremely liable to disconnect from their balljoints rather than extending properly. Many of the joints are also extremely loose, owing to both poor construction and the excessive weight of the limbs.

In contrast to his previous ''Titanium'' toy, this Megatron has a more posable robot mode, but a fairly unimpressive alternate mode with a transformation that consists of little more than lying the toy on its back and attaching the gun/shield. There is a small clip on the back of the toy which designer [[Don Figueroa]] said was to hold his sword, seen in the comic book, but that accessory was ultimately not produced.

:After years of tanks and jets, ''[[Transformers: Classics|Classics]]'' Megatron finally found a way to take Megatron back to his root as a transforming gun, complete with a working crosshairs in his scope and a spring-loaded clicking trigger. Described on-package as a "fusion blaster", Megatron's gun mode is apparently based on a [[:File:N-strike maverick.jpg|Nerf N-Strike Maverick blaster]], and decked out in a [[for safety reasons|safety-regulation-friendly]] color scheme consisting of lots of green and purple (in an apparent homage to his old ''Generation 2'' colors), plus bright orange on both the tip of the barrel and the scope. Years later, it would be discovered that, for currently unknown reasons, the bright color of this orange plastic would fade over time, even if not directly exposed to sunlight.

:Early [[stock photography|official Hasbro photographs]], including those appearing on the toy's [[packaging]], show the gun mode's trigger and other small parts as being orange, those parts were gray in later stock photography and the final release.

: "Ultimate Battle" Megatron evokes his ''Generation 2'' form as a green tank. Like his pack-in partner, who has a spinning "power punch" action, Megatron features a similar "spinning dervish action" gimmick, his right arm ending not in a fist but a bladed polearm which whirls around with the press of a button at his shoulder. At best, it looks silly, but at worst, it comes off easily. He comes with a small rifle with a rather pointless flip-out stock extension. The very tip of his cannon is a detachable piece, and can become lost ''very'' easily.

: Megatron is [[misassembly|misassembled]] in-package, with his feet swapped and attached backwards. Although not immediately noticeable due to the fact that [[:File:MegatronUltimateBattle.jpg|promotional]] and box-art photography also show this misassembly, any attempt to transform Megatron into tank mode immediately demonstrates the mistake, which is easily corrected by unscrewing his lower legs, reversing the foot pieces, and attaching each to the opposite leg (as has been done in the picture at right).

:In the United States, Megatron was only available in a special two-pack with a similarly unique ''Classics'' [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys#UltimateBattle|Optimus Prime toy]], and the specially-produced "[[Optimus Prime vs Megatron: The Ultimate Battle|The Ultimate Battle]]" DVD (which is, inappropriately enough, entirely about the [[Unicron Trilogy]]). The two-pack (including the DVD) was also available as a [[Walmart]] [[exclusive]] "Bonus Value" version with two randomly selected members of the ''[[Transformers: Cybertron (toyline)|Cybertron]]'' [[Giant Planet Mini-Con Team]], in the combinations [[Overcast (Cybertron)|Overcast]]/[[Longarm (Cybertron)|Longarm]], Overcast/[[Deepdive (Cybertron)|Deepdive]] and Deepdive/Longarm. International markets, including European countries, saw the two-pack in a considerably smaller, differently-shaped box that was lacking the DVD case (in the [[United Kingdom]] and the Netherlands, the DVD just came in a paper sleeve; in other European countries, it was instead made available separately). In addition, the two figures were also sold on [[#cardedultbattle|individual cardbacks]] in some countries (see below).

{{toydesigner|[[Hironori Kobayashi]] (TakaraTomy)}}

:''[[Transformers Sports Label|Sports Label]]'' Megatron is a retool of [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys#Sports Label|''Sports Label'' Convoy]], one of the strangest examples of licensed ''Transformers'' products in that he transforms into a ''shoe''. Something of a [[shellformer]], this baffling incarnation of Megatron is primarily black and silver in his alternate mode as a realistic-looking (if notably undersized) Nike Free 7.0 sneaker, complete with gratuitously long real fabric shoelaces (characterized as "electrical discharge cables" in his bio). In robot mode, he sports some additional red paint applications and a somewhat uniquely-shaped yet instantly recognizable Generation 1-inspired head. Also in this mode, Megatron's feet are sculpted in the likeness of his own sneaker mode, making it seem like he's wearing himself!

:His gun splits into two halves and stores inside his [[kibble]] in shoe mode. It can be held in his hands or mounted on his forearm in traditional Megatron fashion. In an undocumented feature, it has two handle pegs on opposite sides, so that it can be held either at its far end or halfway along its length. The gun halves can also be plugged together in two different ways.

:This mold might have been planned for a redeco into [[Starscream (G1)/toys#Sports Label|''Sports Label'' Starscream]], but that's a bit vague.

:''[[Henkei! Henkei! Transformers (toyline)|Henkei! Henkei!]] Transformers'' Megatron is a redeco of the ''Classics'' Voyager Class mold. Not bound by the safety regulations that necessitated ''Classics'' Megatron's more colorful appearance, ''Henkei'' Megatron features a significantly different color scheme of black, silver and red designed to make him resemble his original Generation 1 appearance, including translucent red plastic to replicate his classic cartoon "Decepticon red" eyes. All ''Henkei'' toys feature (somewhat randomly-applied) vacuum-metalized chrome parts; in Megatron's case, his chest plate and kneecaps are chromed silver.

:A [[Legends Class (2005)|Legends Class]] version of Megatron inspired by [[#Generation 2|his ''Generation 2'' tank design]], although featuring a more realistic shade of green.

:Sadly, because of his transformation, when transformed into tank mode his turret doesn't turn around. Some of Legends Class Megatron's transformation shares several similarities to his Generation 2 toy.

:Although his first stock photography features a slightly long turret, the final product had it shortened.

**''Accessories:'' Rifle
{{toydesigner|[[Joe Kyde]] (deco artist)|[[Marcelo Matere]] (packaging artist)}}

:This "Special Edition" of Megatron is a redeco of the "Ultimate Battle" Megatron from ''Classics'', this time featuring a Generation 1-inspired deco of grays, red and black. This new deco takes advantage of the toy's mould break-up to add a fifth plastic colour (where the original only had four), dividing the parts which were dark grey on the original version between light grey, red and black plastic. Also marking this figure as a particularly "special" edition is the fact that it's the first release of the figure to assemble his feet the correct way around. Amusingly, his [[packaging]] [[stock photography]] depicts him as ''missing a part'': his cannon's detachable tip is missing, and the tip of the cannon's stub is painted red to somehow compensate for that.

:Like all the figures in the small Special Edition line, Megatron was designed for Australasian markets and features a bookbox style packaging with black-and-white boxart, retailing at about 150% of the price for a normal deluxe outside of the United States. He was not available at retail in North America, but was for sale on Hasbrotoyshop.com, like the other Special Edition toys. Years later, Hasbro liquidated excess stock of the special edition figures through Marshall's stores and were sold for a fraction of the original prices.

:Oddly enough, this Megatron and the three other Universe Special Edition toys were included in Taiwanese special value packs each containing a [[Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (film)/home video|''Revenge of the Fallen'' DVD]].

{{toydesigner|[[Hironori Kobayashi]] (TakaraTomy)|[[Hirofumi Ichikawa]] (concept artist)}}
:The ''[[Transformers: Alternity|Alternity]]'' Megatron toy transforms into a 1:32 scale model of a Nissan 370Z and features die-cast metal parts and rubber tires. The figure wields two "tesseractal swords" which can be pegged at its hips, or stored under the car in vehicle mode. Each forearm features a flip-out "gravital blade."

: In the hyper-dimensional world of the oft-confusing ''Alternity'' fiction, each figure from this line represents a distinct version of a character from a separate [[universal stream]], but which precise Megatron the "Blade Silver" toy embodies has not been disclosed. Upon its initial release, this toy was also available in blue (see below), and later redecoed in a black variant as well. It was later redecoed into ''Alternity'' [[Galvatron (G1)/toys#Alternity|Galvatron]].

:[[:File:Alternity Megatron Cannon.jpg|Early concepts]] for ''Alternity'' showed him with the trademark fusion cannon rather than his twin swords, as well as a pronounced Decepticon [[insignia]] on his chest.

: Part of the first wave of ''[[Transformers United|United]]'' product, "Cybertron Mode" Megatron is a [[redeco]] of the Deluxe Class [[Megatron (WFC)/toys#Generations|''War for Cybertron'' Megatron toy]], transforming into a Cybertronian self-propelled gun. The treads of his vehicle can be positioned in either a vertical configuration like a traditional tank or in a horizontal, [[Popular Cybertronian vehicle alternate modes#Hovertank|hovertank]] configuration. Megatron's spring-loaded cannon can attach to either arm.

:Megatron is cast in a deep dark metallic gray plastic rather than the light gray plastic of the Hasbro version. He also features a blood red metallic paint instead of the more traditional red used on the Hasbro version. Other notable differences include the Decepticon symbol upon his chest as well as lacking paint on the sliding mechanism within his fusion cannon.

:This mold was also used to make [[Darkside Megatron]].

:Like the 5th and 6th wave figures, Tank Megatron's package feature a sticker that said "limited quantity (数量限定)", indicating that this figure is released in limited numbers after its first and only shipment.

:Like the [[#UniSpecEd|''Universe'' Special Edition figure above]], Tank Megatron features correctly assembled feet. He was originally solicited as "'''Thunder Megatron'''".

: Part of the first wave of the [[Transformers (2010 toyline)|2010 ''Transformers'' line]]'s "[[Transformers (2010 toyline)#Hasbro Reveal the Shield subline|Reveal the Shield]]" Legends Class toys, this toy is based on Megatron's Generation 1 cartoon appearance (with a little inspiration from [[IDW Publishing|IDW]]'s ''[[The Transformers: All Hail Megatron|All Hail Megatron]]'' design around the abdomen), transforming into a variation on Megatron's original gun mode (referred to as a "blaster" on Hasbro's website). As he was part of Reveal the Shield, he has a [[rubsign]] on his chest.

[[File:MP Acid Storm-Chronicle gun Megatron-Pull My Trigger.jpg|thumb|right|upright=0.85|To hell with safety!]]
: In a fit of complete awesomeness, the figure is sculpted with notches in its handle that specifically allow the ''Masterpiece'' [[Starscream (G1)/toys#Masterpiece|Starscream]] mold to grip it. Additionally, the slightly thicker portion of the barrel closer to the main body can be held by the clip included with ''Masterpiece'' Starscream and attach to his jet mode. Unfortunately, Megatron can only be held vertically.

: Despite his tiny size, Hasbro had to cast much of the gun (his arms, the barrel/fusion cannon, and the upper half of his torso) in orange plastic [[for safety reasons]] (not helped by the fact that [https://io9.gizmodo.com/the-tiniest-cutest-guns-that-shoot-real-bullets-1683682859 functional small guns do exist]). Official Hasbro [[stock photography|stock photos]] and early [[prototype|samples]] from China had the orange plastic on the barrel fully painted over in gray, yet the final toy leaves the end of the barrel unpainted.

He also features entirely new face and chest tampographs. So version number four of the same base design.

: The set comes with two bags of Kre-O parts, one coming from the [[Starscream (G1)/toys#Kre-O|first-year Starscream kit]] (mostly all the small bits and landing gear), the other "new" with some basic bricks and plates.

*'''Megatron''' (Battle Upgrade, 2014)
**''Pieces'': '''18'''
**''Accessories'': Backpack, spring-loaded cannon, missile, blaster, energy flail, 2 blaster-pods, "Skywarp" right forearm

: Part of the first wave of "Battle Upgrade" ''[[Hero Mashers]]'' toys, Megatron is a non-transforming action figure with ratchet-joints, about six inches tall. His design is mostly based on Generation 1 Megatron, but with angles and styling very evocative of ''[[Transformers: War for Cybertron (franchise)|War for Cybertron]]'' [[Megatron (WFC)|Megatron]]. He has multiple peg-holes all over that can be used to mount any ''Hero Mashers'' accessory. 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.

: While he is (roughly) the same size as a standard Hero Masher, his larger [[size class|price point]] is made up for with a lot more parts and gimmicks. Both of his hands are removable, which allows for accessories to be placed in his wrist sockets, notably his "energy flail" piece. His ''massive'' "fusion cannon" piece is a spring-loaded missile launcher. He also comes with [[Skywarp (G1)/toys#Hero Mashers|Skywarp]]'s right forearm, which is a [[redeco]] of ''Hero Mashers'' [[Starscream (G1)/toys#Hero Mashers|Starscream]]'s.

: Released under the "TakaraTomy Arts" banner alongside a [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys#Optimus Prime featuring Original PlayStation|Sony PlayStation version of Optimus Prime]] and outside of any other toyline, Mega Drive Megatron transforms from robot to a scaled-down Japanese [[Sega]] {{w|Sega Genesis|Mega Drive}} video game console... which coincidentally is about the size of a real-life Mega Drive cartridge. He comes with a gamepad with pushable buttons which splits in two and attaches to his back like a pair of wings. The left side of the console detaches and transforms into an arm-mounted cannon attached to his back via the gamepad's cord. He also includes a cartridge depicting the Japanese release of ''[[Sonic the Hedgehog (video game)|Sonic the Hedgehog]]'' that slots into the console/his chest.

: This figure includes what is most likely the smallest accessory to ever be included with a Transformers toy; a small cap that covers the hole left if one does not insert the gamepad into the console mode. The piece is sculpted to resemble an open slot for a gamepad and is a teensy bit ''smaller'' than even the fist parts for a ''Smallest Transforming Transformers'' [[Seeker (body-type)|Seeker]].

:''[[Transformers Authentics|Authentics]]'' "Decepticon Megatron" is a figure roughly the size of a 2015 [[Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2015 toyline)#Mini-Con Battle Packs|''Robots in Disguise'' Battle Pack]] toy. He changes from an [[evergreen]]-inspired robot into a tank in just six steps, with his fusion cannon doubling as the tank mode's cannon.

:He features two 5mm-compatible hands, and his head is made out of a slightly soft, rubbery plastic. Like [[Starscream (G1)/toys#Authentics|Starscream]], he actually has elbows, and like all ''Authentics'' toys, Megatron features sculpted insignias on his chest and the sole of his right foot; the latter is visible in tank mode while the former is visible in robot mode.

:Unfortunately, Megatron does not have any functional small wheels on his painted treads (although the rear treads do have slots cut into them for some reason), making them prone to chipping if he is "rolled" along. Sadly, the forearms and the cannon's posts are ''not'' 5mm/3mm compatible.

*'''Megatron''' (Alpha, 2024)
**''Accessories:'' Tank barrel/fusion cannon

:Similar to the previous Alpha figure, this Megatron is an upscaled version of the concurrently released 2024 Bravo class figure, with a more elaborate transformation scheme from robot to tank in 13 steps along with greatly increased articulation (although not much compared to his previous toy). However, unlike the 2017 figure, the tank mode lacks small wheels inside the treads. Unfortunately, while the tank barrel/fusion cannon can be held in either his hands or his right forearm, the holes on the hands are too small to accommodate conventional 5mm accessories, so does the posts of the cannon. Like the Alpha class [[Starscream (G1)/toys#Authentics|Starscream]] figure, this Megatron has trouble standing up due to his small heels, although this can be remedied by rotating the panels of his shins so that the slanted part is facing down.

:Much like his smaller counterpart, this figure was listed in the [https://hasbrostore.cl/product/transformers/9536-figura-de-accion-transformers-authentics-alpha-megatron-195166249230.html Chilean Hasbro store] website without any announcements.

*'''Megatron''' (Titan Changer, 2019)
**''Accessories:'' Tank barrel/fusion cannon

:Part of the first wave of ''Authentics'' Titan Changers, Megatron changes from a thin robot to a tank. The Fusion cannon can be mounted on either arm or held in either fist via a 5 mm post. Like most Titan Changers, he only features articulation in his ball-jointed shoulders.
:This figure was primarily only available in dollar stores like Family Dollar and similar chains.
:The figure was re-released in 2022 alongside Optimus Primal in Wave 3, and repackaged unchanged in 2023 as his [[Megatron (Movie)/toys#ROTBTitanChanger|live-action film incarnation]] for the [[Transformers: Rise of the Beasts (toyline)|Rise of the Beasts]] toyline. In 2024 he was repackaged again for the [[Transformers One (toyline)|Transformers One]] toyline.

:*''Release date'': [[May 26]], 2018
:*''Accessories'': Cannon, rifle, Headmaster

:Part of the Japan-exclusive ''[[Street Fighter II × Transformers]]'' toyline, Megatron is a redeco of ''Titans Return'' Voyager Class [[Megatron (G1)/Generations toys#Titans Return|Megatron]] in [[M. Bison]]'s traditional colors, fleshy bits and all. He transforms from robot to tank to fighter jet (both made-up models), complete with [[Shadaloo]] [[insignia]]. The smaller [[Headmaster (technology)|Headmaster]] unit's robot mode is also painted to resemble Bison.

:Like all Voyager Class ''Titans Return'' figures, he has a pair of pop-up parts to fill in the area around his head; in this case, a pair of missile racks. However, those parts heavily restrict his neck articulation when deployed; unlike many others in his size class, his chest does not contain a pivoting assembly for a better range of movement. Due to the nature of his transformation, it is possible to transform the figure into tank mode without removing his head.

:His cannon can plug into the short barrel of the tank turret or the rifle/Headmaster vehicle weapon. In an undocumented additional feature, the rifle can be inserted into the front end of the cannon. The cannon can be mounted on his forearm or held by any figure with 5mm hands. It also has a peg hole that an accessory such as his rifle can plug into, with extra square peg holes specifically to hold the rifle in place.

:Megatron was only available in a two-pack with [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys#Street Fighter II × Transformers|Convoy]] <nowiki>[</nowiki>[[Ryu#Toys|Ryu]]<nowiki>]</nowiki>. This set was available for pre-order on [[TakaraTomy Mall]] from [[November 22]] to [[November 27|27]], with orders fulfilled in late May 2018. A pre-order goal was set as well: if 3000 units were pre-ordered in total, the set would also come with clear display stands for both toys.

:This two-pack was later brought to the West in 2022 as part of the ''[[Transformers Collaborative]]'' line, released as a [[Target]] and [[Hasbro Pulse]] exclusive in the United States. These releases are functionally identical to the Takara versions; the Hasbro versions have new manufacturing tampographs, but are otherwise the same. They even have all of the Takara packaging ''inside'' the new Hasbro outer packaging!

:This Megatron converts from robot mode to alligator in two steps -- though the second step is just reorienting the tip of his tail.

:Unlike the original versions of Starscream's fists from ''The Transformers Collection'' reissue, the fists from this version are cast in black plastic and ''painted'' blue. The added paint makes the post on the bottom of his fists thicker than they should be, so attaching the lower portion of the Megatron gun can be difficult.

:*''Accessories'': Fusion Cannon, tank turret/bladed weapon, tank-filler part/shield

:Released as the first entry of the ''[[Dramatic Capture Series]]'' line by TakaraTomy, this Megatron is a redeco of the ''[[War for Cybertron: Earthrise]]'' [[Megatron (G1)/Generations toys#War for Cybertron: Earthrise|mold]] in Generation 1 cartoon-accurate colors.

:Megatron's turret also doubles as a melee weapon, though it must be forearm-mounted in order to use the blade. The blade can be a shield if paired with the sword from the ''Siege'' toy. To try and reduce his alternate mode's resemblance to an H-tank, he has a [[Partformer|partsforming]] piece that is attached between his shins, or onto the bladed weapon. Stock photography for the above ''Generations Selects'' redeco shows the melee weapon can plug into his back as a back-mounted cannon, much like his G1 cartoon design, and the filler part can be a forearm-mounted shield.

:The new tooling to keep his head/neck flap more secure can make pulling his head out while transforming him to robot mode ''very'' difficult; the strain of doing so can cause the ball joint socket to crack, and form stress marks on his cheeks. This can be remedied by pushing the flap up from beneath using the filler/shield piece tabs.

:Megatron is packaged with [[Soundwave (G1)/toys#Dramatic Capture Series|Soundwave]] and [[Shockwave (G1)/toys#Dramatic Capture Series|Shockwave]].

*To date, an exact copy of the black ''[[Microman]]'' ''[[Micro Change]]'' Walther P-38 toy has not been reissued as a Transformer. The e-Hobby version replaced the blue plastic with red and most of the black plastic parts with dark silver chrome.
*It seems that no one could get Megatron's [[package art]] right in Japan. His standard release used edited box art from the standard Micro Change P-38 toy's black deco, recolored to Megatron's US toy color scheme with shiny "chrome" and red on his legs and arms instead of the Japanese toy's flat gray and blue. The VS-X art replaced the red with blue, but kept the "chrome". The art on the "Goodbye Megatron" set used edited US box art (which in turn was the Micro Change P-38 UNCLE art with an added sigil) that replaced the red with blue, yet this toy used red plastic.
*In a fit of madness, a triple changer was proposed that would switch between [[Skywarp (G1)/toys|Skywarp]] (possibly mistaken for Starscream), Megatron, and Skywarp's jet mode.
*In a slightly more sane attempt, [[:File:Megalvatron.jpg|another triple changer]] was proposed which would switch between Megatron, a very awkward [[Galvatron (G1)/toys|Galvatron]], and a Walther P-38 handgun with a futuristic silencer and laser sight.
*Two kitbashed mock-ups of Megatron as a '90s video camcorder exist, one using the ''Generation 2'' tank Megatron mold to showcase a robot mode, and a nontransforming camera model. According to [[Vincent D'Alleva]], during the short turbulent period after G2 and before Beast Wars, one of the ideas floated was going back to highly realistic electronics for the line, and camcorder Megatron was a proof of concept model before it was decided that Beast Wars was the more viable option [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RVRZdx1fFz8&ab_channel=TheToyFilesPodcast]. The mock-up was originally offered for sale in [http://groups.google.com/group/alt.toys.transformers/browse_thread/thread/4f98fe3d58bfe696/b1d0163d38587281?q=ramjet+whiz+bang+toys&pli=1 October of 2000] from Whiz Bang Collectibles, along with other items from a former Hasbro employee's collection.<ref>[http://www.toyarchive.com/Transformers/Prototypes/Generation2/MegatronVideoCameraMock1.html Megatron Video Camera at Toyarchive.com]</ref>

Transformers: Energon (toyline)

2024-01-14T02:32:31Z

ScreamerFan: /* Exclusives */

{{nav-energon}}

[[File:Crosssell-energon1.jpg|right|400px|thumb|Tri-lingual packaging, kids! Remember, it's how everything will be by 2005!]]

'''''Transformers: Energon''''' followed up on the highly-successful ''[[Transformers: Armada (toyline)|Armada]]'' toyline, continuing its universe and carrying over a number of its popular characters in new forms. Set roughly ten years after the previous series, ''Energon'' brought in new sub-factions, new faces and new modes of play.

The line also fell on the 20th anniversary of the ''Transformers'' brand, which led to many toys and characters being more overt [[homage]]s to major characters from [[The Transformers (franchise)|Generation 1]] than past series produced. These homages did have a tendency to get garbled, though, due to different names or significantly altered characterization.

Unfortunately, the line, while moderately successful, didn't exactly light a fire under the brand the way ''Armada'' or ''[[Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2001 toyline)|Robots in Disguise]]'' had prior. A glut of early product, availability issues with later product, a less-than-cohesive play theme, and a poorly-received [[Transformers: Energon (cartoon)|advertising cartoon]] proved to be stumbling blocks, and Hasbro began to re-think how to take the line forward from there.

{{TOCclear}}

==Overview==
[[File:En-toy Strongarm.jpg|thumb|250px|Omnicon Strongarm]]
While ''Energon'' does have an overarching theme of "combination" ("[[energon]]" is oddly more of a minor feature in the line), it's not anywhere as clean-cut and uniform in actual execution as ''Armada''<nowiki>'s</nowiki> [[Mini-Con]] theme (or the [[Cyber Key]]s of the follow-up series ''[[Transformers: Cybertron (toyline)|Cybertron]]''). There are multiple types of combination going on, split up between the price points and factions, which can be a bit confusing at first. Though virtually every new-mold toy featured Mini-Con [[Powerlinx]]-compatible points for that form of combination (but did not activate any gimmicks), Mini-Cons were significantly scaled back in ''Energon''.

[[File:Energon superion maximus toy.jpg|left|thumb|250px|Superion Maximus, the combined form of the [[Air Team]].]]
At the smallest price-point, the [[Omnicon]]s and [[Terrorcon (Energon)|Terrorcon]]s augment the larger toys with reconfigurable weapons, while the Mini-Cons sold at the same price are both combiner teams (one forming a weapon for larger toys). The "Combat Class" (aka Deluxe) and Mega Class Autobots can combine with each other to form two-bot [[combiner|gestalt]]s, each bot having both an "upper body" and "lower body" configuration (also referred to as "shirt" and "pants" by parts of the [[fandom]]) that could be combined with any other. The larger Autobot toys, however, mostly combine with their own accessories (dubbed "Brute Modes") in ways that do not allow for cross-compatibility outside of same-mold [[redeco]]s. [[Optimus Prime (Armada)/toys#Energon|Leader-Class Optimus Prime]] could also combine with two other larger Autobot toys, but again these combinations are quite specific and do not allow for real mix-and-match play.

Aside from the Mini-Con compatibility, the Decepticons were left out of the combination game (until the very tail-end of the line, at least), instead having "Hyper Modes" with built-in weapons that could be swung into attack position.

At the very back end of the series, five-robot "[[Scramble City (toyline)|Scramble City]]"-like combiners were released, three teams of four "Energon" (Basic) Class figures with a Combat-Class torso. Unfortunately, in order to make up for the mold-reuse that allowed for three teams to exist (each limb-mold was used twice per team), the teams were split up across waves, and the [[tail-ender]] phenomenon left many fans wondering if they would actually be able to complete these long-awaited sets.

As the line premiered riding the popularity boom from ''Armada'' and retailers were eager for more product, stores ended up ''massively'' over-ordering early ''Energon'' product, leading to extreme [[shelfwarmer|shelfwarming]] for the first two waves. The situation was so severe, Hasbro removed much of the older product from stores' inventory to get "The Powerlinx Battles" [[subline imprint|subline]] to shelves in time for the 2004 holiday season. Much of this early stock would reappear on store shelves in "buy one get one" bonus buys in ''very'' large numbers.
{{-}}{{anchor|Hasbro}}

==Hasbro ''Energon'' toyline==
[[File:Thepowerlinxbattles logo.jpg|right|upright=1]]
As ''Transformers'' was still riding high on demand from ''Armada'', the early Hasbro line was filled out with several [[redeco]]ed and [[retool]]ed ''Armada'' toys.

{{note|Multiple figures in the ''Energon'' toyline were sold in both the standard and ''The Powerlinx Battles'' packaging. All of the cases where a figure was released in both packaging variants are marked with an asterisk below.}}

===General retail===
====Energon Class====
The Basic-sized [[Omnicon]]s and [[Terrorcon (Energon)|Terrorcon]]s came with clear [[Energon weapon]]s and "[[Energon star|Energon Chip]]s" that can be attached over the [[spark crystal]]s of the new-mold ''Energon'' toys. Chips and weapons were red-tinted for Omnicons, and green/yellow for Terrorcons. The final three waves consisted of the limb figures for the [[Air Team]], [[Construction Team]] and [[Destruction Team]] Powerlinx [[Combiner]]s (the torsos were sold as part of the Combat Class). The limb figures all came with add-on weapons and Energon Chips, cast in blue clear plastic, and these weapons formed the hands or feet of the combined robot.

Combat Class (and Mega Class, see below) Autobots, besides transforming from vehicle to robot, could also become the top or bottom half of a "[[Powerlinx]]" combination robot. While it was not widely advertised, the two size classes could freely inter-combine, with occasionally ludicrous results. This assortment also featured the torso figures for the combiners [[Superion Maximus]], [[Constructicon Maximus]] and [[Bruticus Maximus (Energon)|Bruticus Maximus]].

==Hasbro ''Energon'' European market releases==
{{anchor|Europe}}
For the most part, the European line was just the US line outlined above. However, two sets of [[KB Toys]]-exclusive toys from the [[Transformers: Universe (2003 toyline)|2003 ''Universe'' toyline]] got released under the ''Energon'' banner, because the ''Universe'' branding was not used in Europe at all.

==Takara ''Super Link'' toyline==
[[File:TF-Super-Link-Logo.png|300px|right|]]

Premiering about the same time as the Hasbro line, ''Super Link'' (a much more thematically-appropriate name) largely stuck with slight color tweaks. Takara also filled out the line with a few more redecoes of the Terrorcon drones in more limited numbers.

The [[energon weapon]]s were something of a bigger draw in the line, as the "powered up" redeco toys (the "Energon _____" toys in the Hasbro line) were given new-color Omnicon/Terrorcon energon weapons as a bonus. Speaking of redecoes, many of the new-character redecoes in the back end of the Hasbro line were put into the cartoon as powered-up forms of the original characters... but then were never released in Japan, not even as store-[[exclusive]] "[[USA Edition]]s". Even major-ish cartoon character [[Six Shot (Energon)|Six Shot]] was absent from the ''Super Link'' toyline. Weird!

''Super Link'' also coincided with the 30th anniversary of ''[[Microman]]'', the toyline that would eventually branch off as ''[[Micro Change]]'' and ''[[Diaclone]]'', the lines that would eventually give birth to ''Transformers''. Takara celebrated this joint anniversary by releasing toys of human ally [[Kicker Jones]] in the ''Microman'' format.

==Post-''Energon'' releases==
There's really not a lot to speak of, at least as far as "new" product goes. A great many ''Energon'' items were [[Transformers: Universe (2003 toyline)#Rebranding and other odds and ends (2005 - 2008)|re-branded under the original ''Transformers: Universe'' banner]] and sold at various "discount" chains, but those toys were all identical to the original releases outside of the packaging.

So we're only listing new stuff... and it's a small, small list.

Transformers: Energon (toyline)

2024-01-14T02:25:20Z

ScreamerFan: /* Supreme Class */

{{nav-energon}}

[[File:Crosssell-energon1.jpg|right|400px|thumb|Tri-lingual packaging, kids! Remember, it's how everything will be by 2005!]]

'''''Transformers: Energon''''' followed up on the highly-successful ''[[Transformers: Armada (toyline)|Armada]]'' toyline, continuing its universe and carrying over a number of its popular characters in new forms. Set roughly ten years after the previous series, ''Energon'' brought in new sub-factions, new faces and new modes of play.

The line also fell on the 20th anniversary of the ''Transformers'' brand, which led to many toys and characters being more overt [[homage]]s to major characters from [[The Transformers (franchise)|Generation 1]] than past series produced. These homages did have a tendency to get garbled, though, due to different names or significantly altered characterization.

Unfortunately, the line, while moderately successful, didn't exactly light a fire under the brand the way ''Armada'' or ''[[Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2001 toyline)|Robots in Disguise]]'' had prior. A glut of early product, availability issues with later product, a less-than-cohesive play theme, and a poorly-received [[Transformers: Energon (cartoon)|advertising cartoon]] proved to be stumbling blocks, and Hasbro began to re-think how to take the line forward from there.

{{TOCclear}}

==Overview==
[[File:En-toy Strongarm.jpg|thumb|250px|Omnicon Strongarm]]
While ''Energon'' does have an overarching theme of "combination" ("[[energon]]" is oddly more of a minor feature in the line), it's not anywhere as clean-cut and uniform in actual execution as ''Armada''<nowiki>'s</nowiki> [[Mini-Con]] theme (or the [[Cyber Key]]s of the follow-up series ''[[Transformers: Cybertron (toyline)|Cybertron]]''). There are multiple types of combination going on, split up between the price points and factions, which can be a bit confusing at first. Though virtually every new-mold toy featured Mini-Con [[Powerlinx]]-compatible points for that form of combination (but did not activate any gimmicks), Mini-Cons were significantly scaled back in ''Energon''.

[[File:Energon superion maximus toy.jpg|left|thumb|250px|Superion Maximus, the combined form of the [[Air Team]].]]
At the smallest price-point, the [[Omnicon]]s and [[Terrorcon (Energon)|Terrorcon]]s augment the larger toys with reconfigurable weapons, while the Mini-Cons sold at the same price are both combiner teams (one forming a weapon for larger toys). The "Combat Class" (aka Deluxe) and Mega Class Autobots can combine with each other to form two-bot [[combiner|gestalt]]s, each bot having both an "upper body" and "lower body" configuration (also referred to as "shirt" and "pants" by parts of the [[fandom]]) that could be combined with any other. The larger Autobot toys, however, mostly combine with their own accessories (dubbed "Brute Modes") in ways that do not allow for cross-compatibility outside of same-mold [[redeco]]s. [[Optimus Prime (Armada)/toys#Energon|Leader-Class Optimus Prime]] could also combine with two other larger Autobot toys, but again these combinations are quite specific and do not allow for real mix-and-match play.

Aside from the Mini-Con compatibility, the Decepticons were left out of the combination game (until the very tail-end of the line, at least), instead having "Hyper Modes" with built-in weapons that could be swung into attack position.

At the very back end of the series, five-robot "[[Scramble City (toyline)|Scramble City]]"-like combiners were released, three teams of four "Energon" (Basic) Class figures with a Combat-Class torso. Unfortunately, in order to make up for the mold-reuse that allowed for three teams to exist (each limb-mold was used twice per team), the teams were split up across waves, and the [[tail-ender]] phenomenon left many fans wondering if they would actually be able to complete these long-awaited sets.

As the line premiered riding the popularity boom from ''Armada'' and retailers were eager for more product, stores ended up ''massively'' over-ordering early ''Energon'' product, leading to extreme [[shelfwarmer|shelfwarming]] for the first two waves. The situation was so severe, Hasbro removed much of the older product from stores' inventory to get "The Powerlinx Battles" [[subline imprint|subline]] to shelves in time for the 2004 holiday season. Much of this early stock would reappear on store shelves in "buy one get one" bonus buys in ''very'' large numbers.

==Hasbro ''Energon'' toyline==
[[File:Thepowerlinxbattles logo.jpg|right|upright=1]]
As ''Transformers'' was still riding high on demand from ''Armada'', the early Hasbro line was filled out with several [[redeco]]ed and [[retool]]ed ''Armada'' toys.

{{note|Multiple figures in the ''Energon'' toyline were sold in both the standard and ''The Powerlinx Battles'' packaging. All of the cases where a figure was released in both packaging variants are marked with an asterisk below.}}

===General retail===
====Energon Class====
The Basic-sized [[Omnicon]]s and [[Terrorcon (Energon)|Terrorcon]]s came with clear [[Energon weapon]]s and "[[Energon star|Energon Chip]]s" that can be attached over the [[spark crystal]]s of the new-mold ''Energon'' toys. Chips and weapons were red-tinted for Omnicons, and green/yellow for Terrorcons. The final three waves consisted of the limb figures for the [[Air Team]], [[Construction Team]] and [[Destruction Team]] Powerlinx [[Combiner]]s (the torsos were sold as part of the Combat Class). The limb figures all came with add-on weapons and Energon Chips, cast in blue clear plastic, and these weapons formed the hands or feet of the combined robot.

====Combat Class====
Combat Class (and Mega Class, see below) Autobots, besides transforming from vehicle to robot, could also become the top or bottom half of a "[[Powerlinx]]" combination robot. While it was not widely advertised, the two size classes could freely inter-combine, with occasionally ludicrous results. This assortment also featured the torso figures for the combiners [[Superion Maximus]], [[Constructicon Maximus]] and [[Bruticus Maximus (Energon)|Bruticus Maximus]].

==Hasbro ''Energon'' European market releases==
{{anchor|Europe}}
For the most part, the European line was just the US line outlined above. However, two sets of [[KB Toys]]-exclusive toys from the [[Transformers: Universe (2003 toyline)|2003 ''Universe'' toyline]] got released under the ''Energon'' banner, because the ''Universe'' branding was not used in Europe at all.

==Takara ''Super Link'' toyline==
[[File:TF-Super-Link-Logo.png|300px|right|]]

Premiering about the same time as the Hasbro line, ''Super Link'' (a much more thematically-appropriate name) largely stuck with slight color tweaks. Takara also filled out the line with a few more redecoes of the Terrorcon drones in more limited numbers.

The [[energon weapon]]s were something of a bigger draw in the line, as the "powered up" redeco toys (the "Energon _____" toys in the Hasbro line) were given new-color Omnicon/Terrorcon energon weapons as a bonus. Speaking of redecoes, many of the new-character redecoes in the back end of the Hasbro line were put into the cartoon as powered-up forms of the original characters... but then were never released in Japan, not even as store-[[exclusive]] "[[USA Edition]]s". Even major-ish cartoon character [[Six Shot (Energon)|Six Shot]] was absent from the ''Super Link'' toyline. Weird!

''Super Link'' also coincided with the 30th anniversary of ''[[Microman]]'', the toyline that would eventually branch off as ''[[Micro Change]]'' and ''[[Diaclone]]'', the lines that would eventually give birth to ''Transformers''. Takara celebrated this joint anniversary by releasing toys of human ally [[Kicker Jones]] in the ''Microman'' format.

==Post-''Energon'' releases==
There's really not a lot to speak of, at least as far as "new" product goes. A great many ''Energon'' items were [[Transformers: Universe (2003 toyline)#Rebranding and other odds and ends (2005 - 2008)|re-branded under the original ''Transformers: Universe'' banner]] and sold at various "discount" chains, but those toys were all identical to the original releases outside of the packaging.

So we're only listing new stuff... and it's a small, small list.

Transformers: Energon (toyline)

2024-01-14T02:18:15Z

ScreamerFan: /* Leader Class */

{{nav-energon}}

[[File:Crosssell-energon1.jpg|right|400px|thumb|Tri-lingual packaging, kids! Remember, it's how everything will be by 2005!]]

'''''Transformers: Energon''''' followed up on the highly-successful ''[[Transformers: Armada (toyline)|Armada]]'' toyline, continuing its universe and carrying over a number of its popular characters in new forms. Set roughly ten years after the previous series, ''Energon'' brought in new sub-factions, new faces and new modes of play.

The line also fell on the 20th anniversary of the ''Transformers'' brand, which led to many toys and characters being more overt [[homage]]s to major characters from [[The Transformers (franchise)|Generation 1]] than past series produced. These homages did have a tendency to get garbled, though, due to different names or significantly altered characterization.

Unfortunately, the line, while moderately successful, didn't exactly light a fire under the brand the way ''Armada'' or ''[[Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2001 toyline)|Robots in Disguise]]'' had prior. A glut of early product, availability issues with later product, a less-than-cohesive play theme, and a poorly-received [[Transformers: Energon (cartoon)|advertising cartoon]] proved to be stumbling blocks, and Hasbro began to re-think how to take the line forward from there.

{{TOCclear}}

==Overview==
[[File:En-toy Strongarm.jpg|thumb|250px|Omnicon Strongarm]]
While ''Energon'' does have an overarching theme of "combination" ("[[energon]]" is oddly more of a minor feature in the line), it's not anywhere as clean-cut and uniform in actual execution as ''Armada''<nowiki>'s</nowiki> [[Mini-Con]] theme (or the [[Cyber Key]]s of the follow-up series ''[[Transformers: Cybertron (toyline)|Cybertron]]''). There are multiple types of combination going on, split up between the price points and factions, which can be a bit confusing at first. Though virtually every new-mold toy featured Mini-Con [[Powerlinx]]-compatible points for that form of combination (but did not activate any gimmicks), Mini-Cons were significantly scaled back in ''Energon''.

[[File:Energon superion maximus toy.jpg|left|thumb|250px|Superion Maximus, the combined form of the [[Air Team]].]]
At the smallest price-point, the [[Omnicon]]s and [[Terrorcon (Energon)|Terrorcon]]s augment the larger toys with reconfigurable weapons, while the Mini-Cons sold at the same price are both combiner teams (one forming a weapon for larger toys). The "Combat Class" (aka Deluxe) and Mega Class Autobots can combine with each other to form two-bot [[combiner|gestalt]]s, each bot having both an "upper body" and "lower body" configuration (also referred to as "shirt" and "pants" by parts of the [[fandom]]) that could be combined with any other. The larger Autobot toys, however, mostly combine with their own accessories (dubbed "Brute Modes") in ways that do not allow for cross-compatibility outside of same-mold [[redeco]]s. [[Optimus Prime (Armada)/toys#Energon|Leader-Class Optimus Prime]] could also combine with two other larger Autobot toys, but again these combinations are quite specific and do not allow for real mix-and-match play.

Aside from the Mini-Con compatibility, the Decepticons were left out of the combination game (until the very tail-end of the line, at least), instead having "Hyper Modes" with built-in weapons that could be swung into attack position.

At the very back end of the series, five-robot "[[Scramble City (toyline)|Scramble City]]"-like combiners were released, three teams of four "Energon" (Basic) Class figures with a Combat-Class torso. Unfortunately, in order to make up for the mold-reuse that allowed for three teams to exist (each limb-mold was used twice per team), the teams were split up across waves, and the [[tail-ender]] phenomenon left many fans wondering if they would actually be able to complete these long-awaited sets.

As the line premiered riding the popularity boom from ''Armada'' and retailers were eager for more product, stores ended up ''massively'' over-ordering early ''Energon'' product, leading to extreme [[shelfwarmer|shelfwarming]] for the first two waves. The situation was so severe, Hasbro removed much of the older product from stores' inventory to get "The Powerlinx Battles" [[subline imprint|subline]] to shelves in time for the 2004 holiday season. Much of this early stock would reappear on store shelves in "buy one get one" bonus buys in ''very'' large numbers.

==Hasbro ''Energon'' toyline==
[[File:Thepowerlinxbattles logo.jpg|right|upright=1]]
As ''Transformers'' was still riding high on demand from ''Armada'', the early Hasbro line was filled out with several [[redeco]]ed and [[retool]]ed ''Armada'' toys.

{{note|Multiple figures in the ''Energon'' toyline were sold in both the standard and ''The Powerlinx Battles'' packaging. All of the cases where a figure was released in both packaging variants are marked with an asterisk below.}}

===General retail===
====Energon Class====
The Basic-sized [[Omnicon]]s and [[Terrorcon (Energon)|Terrorcon]]s came with clear [[Energon weapon]]s and "[[Energon star|Energon Chip]]s" that can be attached over the [[spark crystal]]s of the new-mold ''Energon'' toys. Chips and weapons were red-tinted for Omnicons, and green/yellow for Terrorcons. The final three waves consisted of the limb figures for the [[Air Team]], [[Construction Team]] and [[Destruction Team]] Powerlinx [[Combiner]]s (the torsos were sold as part of the Combat Class). The limb figures all came with add-on weapons and Energon Chips, cast in blue clear plastic, and these weapons formed the hands or feet of the combined robot.

====Combat Class====
Combat Class (and Mega Class, see below) Autobots, besides transforming from vehicle to robot, could also become the top or bottom half of a "[[Powerlinx]]" combination robot. While it was not widely advertised, the two size classes could freely inter-combine, with occasionally ludicrous results. This assortment also featured the torso figures for the combiners [[Superion Maximus]], [[Constructicon Maximus]] and [[Bruticus Maximus (Energon)|Bruticus Maximus]].

==Hasbro ''Energon'' European market releases==
{{anchor|Europe}}
For the most part, the European line was just the US line outlined above. However, two sets of [[KB Toys]]-exclusive toys from the [[Transformers: Universe (2003 toyline)|2003 ''Universe'' toyline]] got released under the ''Energon'' banner, because the ''Universe'' branding was not used in Europe at all.

==Takara ''Super Link'' toyline==
[[File:TF-Super-Link-Logo.png|300px|right|]]

Premiering about the same time as the Hasbro line, ''Super Link'' (a much more thematically-appropriate name) largely stuck with slight color tweaks. Takara also filled out the line with a few more redecoes of the Terrorcon drones in more limited numbers.

The [[energon weapon]]s were something of a bigger draw in the line, as the "powered up" redeco toys (the "Energon _____" toys in the Hasbro line) were given new-color Omnicon/Terrorcon energon weapons as a bonus. Speaking of redecoes, many of the new-character redecoes in the back end of the Hasbro line were put into the cartoon as powered-up forms of the original characters... but then were never released in Japan, not even as store-[[exclusive]] "[[USA Edition]]s". Even major-ish cartoon character [[Six Shot (Energon)|Six Shot]] was absent from the ''Super Link'' toyline. Weird!

''Super Link'' also coincided with the 30th anniversary of ''[[Microman]]'', the toyline that would eventually branch off as ''[[Micro Change]]'' and ''[[Diaclone]]'', the lines that would eventually give birth to ''Transformers''. Takara celebrated this joint anniversary by releasing toys of human ally [[Kicker Jones]] in the ''Microman'' format.

==Post-''Energon'' releases==
There's really not a lot to speak of, at least as far as "new" product goes. A great many ''Energon'' items were [[Transformers: Universe (2003 toyline)#Rebranding and other odds and ends (2005 - 2008)|re-branded under the original ''Transformers: Universe'' banner]] and sold at various "discount" chains, but those toys were all identical to the original releases outside of the packaging.

So we're only listing new stuff... and it's a small, small list.

Transformers: Energon (toyline)

2024-01-14T02:16:10Z

ScreamerFan: /* Command Class */

{{nav-energon}}

[[File:Crosssell-energon1.jpg|right|400px|thumb|Tri-lingual packaging, kids! Remember, it's how everything will be by 2005!]]

'''''Transformers: Energon''''' followed up on the highly-successful ''[[Transformers: Armada (toyline)|Armada]]'' toyline, continuing its universe and carrying over a number of its popular characters in new forms. Set roughly ten years after the previous series, ''Energon'' brought in new sub-factions, new faces and new modes of play.

The line also fell on the 20th anniversary of the ''Transformers'' brand, which led to many toys and characters being more overt [[homage]]s to major characters from [[The Transformers (franchise)|Generation 1]] than past series produced. These homages did have a tendency to get garbled, though, due to different names or significantly altered characterization.

Unfortunately, the line, while moderately successful, didn't exactly light a fire under the brand the way ''Armada'' or ''[[Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2001 toyline)|Robots in Disguise]]'' had prior. A glut of early product, availability issues with later product, a less-than-cohesive play theme, and a poorly-received [[Transformers: Energon (cartoon)|advertising cartoon]] proved to be stumbling blocks, and Hasbro began to re-think how to take the line forward from there.

{{TOCclear}}

==Overview==
[[File:En-toy Strongarm.jpg|thumb|250px|Omnicon Strongarm]]
While ''Energon'' does have an overarching theme of "combination" ("[[energon]]" is oddly more of a minor feature in the line), it's not anywhere as clean-cut and uniform in actual execution as ''Armada''<nowiki>'s</nowiki> [[Mini-Con]] theme (or the [[Cyber Key]]s of the follow-up series ''[[Transformers: Cybertron (toyline)|Cybertron]]''). There are multiple types of combination going on, split up between the price points and factions, which can be a bit confusing at first. Though virtually every new-mold toy featured Mini-Con [[Powerlinx]]-compatible points for that form of combination (but did not activate any gimmicks), Mini-Cons were significantly scaled back in ''Energon''.

[[File:Energon superion maximus toy.jpg|left|thumb|250px|Superion Maximus, the combined form of the [[Air Team]].]]
At the smallest price-point, the [[Omnicon]]s and [[Terrorcon (Energon)|Terrorcon]]s augment the larger toys with reconfigurable weapons, while the Mini-Cons sold at the same price are both combiner teams (one forming a weapon for larger toys). The "Combat Class" (aka Deluxe) and Mega Class Autobots can combine with each other to form two-bot [[combiner|gestalt]]s, each bot having both an "upper body" and "lower body" configuration (also referred to as "shirt" and "pants" by parts of the [[fandom]]) that could be combined with any other. The larger Autobot toys, however, mostly combine with their own accessories (dubbed "Brute Modes") in ways that do not allow for cross-compatibility outside of same-mold [[redeco]]s. [[Optimus Prime (Armada)/toys#Energon|Leader-Class Optimus Prime]] could also combine with two other larger Autobot toys, but again these combinations are quite specific and do not allow for real mix-and-match play.

Aside from the Mini-Con compatibility, the Decepticons were left out of the combination game (until the very tail-end of the line, at least), instead having "Hyper Modes" with built-in weapons that could be swung into attack position.

At the very back end of the series, five-robot "[[Scramble City (toyline)|Scramble City]]"-like combiners were released, three teams of four "Energon" (Basic) Class figures with a Combat-Class torso. Unfortunately, in order to make up for the mold-reuse that allowed for three teams to exist (each limb-mold was used twice per team), the teams were split up across waves, and the [[tail-ender]] phenomenon left many fans wondering if they would actually be able to complete these long-awaited sets.

As the line premiered riding the popularity boom from ''Armada'' and retailers were eager for more product, stores ended up ''massively'' over-ordering early ''Energon'' product, leading to extreme [[shelfwarmer|shelfwarming]] for the first two waves. The situation was so severe, Hasbro removed much of the older product from stores' inventory to get "The Powerlinx Battles" [[subline imprint|subline]] to shelves in time for the 2004 holiday season. Much of this early stock would reappear on store shelves in "buy one get one" bonus buys in ''very'' large numbers.

==Hasbro ''Energon'' toyline==
[[File:Thepowerlinxbattles logo.jpg|right|upright=1]]
As ''Transformers'' was still riding high on demand from ''Armada'', the early Hasbro line was filled out with several [[redeco]]ed and [[retool]]ed ''Armada'' toys.

{{note|Multiple figures in the ''Energon'' toyline were sold in both the standard and ''The Powerlinx Battles'' packaging. All of the cases where a figure was released in both packaging variants are marked with an asterisk below.}}

===General retail===
====Energon Class====
The Basic-sized [[Omnicon]]s and [[Terrorcon (Energon)|Terrorcon]]s came with clear [[Energon weapon]]s and "[[Energon star|Energon Chip]]s" that can be attached over the [[spark crystal]]s of the new-mold ''Energon'' toys. Chips and weapons were red-tinted for Omnicons, and green/yellow for Terrorcons. The final three waves consisted of the limb figures for the [[Air Team]], [[Construction Team]] and [[Destruction Team]] Powerlinx [[Combiner]]s (the torsos were sold as part of the Combat Class). The limb figures all came with add-on weapons and Energon Chips, cast in blue clear plastic, and these weapons formed the hands or feet of the combined robot.

====Combat Class====
Combat Class (and Mega Class, see below) Autobots, besides transforming from vehicle to robot, could also become the top or bottom half of a "[[Powerlinx]]" combination robot. While it was not widely advertised, the two size classes could freely inter-combine, with occasionally ludicrous results. This assortment also featured the torso figures for the combiners [[Superion Maximus]], [[Constructicon Maximus]] and [[Bruticus Maximus (Energon)|Bruticus Maximus]].

==Hasbro ''Energon'' European market releases==
{{anchor|Europe}}
For the most part, the European line was just the US line outlined above. However, two sets of [[KB Toys]]-exclusive toys from the [[Transformers: Universe (2003 toyline)|2003 ''Universe'' toyline]] got released under the ''Energon'' banner, because the ''Universe'' branding was not used in Europe at all.

==Takara ''Super Link'' toyline==
[[File:TF-Super-Link-Logo.png|300px|right|]]

Premiering about the same time as the Hasbro line, ''Super Link'' (a much more thematically-appropriate name) largely stuck with slight color tweaks. Takara also filled out the line with a few more redecoes of the Terrorcon drones in more limited numbers.

The [[energon weapon]]s were something of a bigger draw in the line, as the "powered up" redeco toys (the "Energon _____" toys in the Hasbro line) were given new-color Omnicon/Terrorcon energon weapons as a bonus. Speaking of redecoes, many of the new-character redecoes in the back end of the Hasbro line were put into the cartoon as powered-up forms of the original characters... but then were never released in Japan, not even as store-[[exclusive]] "[[USA Edition]]s". Even major-ish cartoon character [[Six Shot (Energon)|Six Shot]] was absent from the ''Super Link'' toyline. Weird!

''Super Link'' also coincided with the 30th anniversary of ''[[Microman]]'', the toyline that would eventually branch off as ''[[Micro Change]]'' and ''[[Diaclone]]'', the lines that would eventually give birth to ''Transformers''. Takara celebrated this joint anniversary by releasing toys of human ally [[Kicker Jones]] in the ''Microman'' format.

==Post-''Energon'' releases==
There's really not a lot to speak of, at least as far as "new" product goes. A great many ''Energon'' items were [[Transformers: Universe (2003 toyline)#Rebranding and other odds and ends (2005 - 2008)|re-branded under the original ''Transformers: Universe'' banner]] and sold at various "discount" chains, but those toys were all identical to the original releases outside of the packaging.

So we're only listing new stuff... and it's a small, small list.

Transformers: Energon (toyline)

2024-01-14T02:08:39Z

ScreamerFan: /* Mega Class */

{{nav-energon}}

[[File:Crosssell-energon1.jpg|right|400px|thumb|Tri-lingual packaging, kids! Remember, it's how everything will be by 2005!]]

'''''Transformers: Energon''''' followed up on the highly-successful ''[[Transformers: Armada (toyline)|Armada]]'' toyline, continuing its universe and carrying over a number of its popular characters in new forms. Set roughly ten years after the previous series, ''Energon'' brought in new sub-factions, new faces and new modes of play.

The line also fell on the 20th anniversary of the ''Transformers'' brand, which led to many toys and characters being more overt [[homage]]s to major characters from [[The Transformers (franchise)|Generation 1]] than past series produced. These homages did have a tendency to get garbled, though, due to different names or significantly altered characterization.

Unfortunately, the line, while moderately successful, didn't exactly light a fire under the brand the way ''Armada'' or ''[[Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2001 toyline)|Robots in Disguise]]'' had prior. A glut of early product, availability issues with later product, a less-than-cohesive play theme, and a poorly-received [[Transformers: Energon (cartoon)|advertising cartoon]] proved to be stumbling blocks, and Hasbro began to re-think how to take the line forward from there.

{{TOCclear}}

==Overview==
[[File:En-toy Strongarm.jpg|thumb|250px|Omnicon Strongarm]]
While ''Energon'' does have an overarching theme of "combination" ("[[energon]]" is oddly more of a minor feature in the line), it's not anywhere as clean-cut and uniform in actual execution as ''Armada''<nowiki>'s</nowiki> [[Mini-Con]] theme (or the [[Cyber Key]]s of the follow-up series ''[[Transformers: Cybertron (toyline)|Cybertron]]''). There are multiple types of combination going on, split up between the price points and factions, which can be a bit confusing at first. Though virtually every new-mold toy featured Mini-Con [[Powerlinx]]-compatible points for that form of combination (but did not activate any gimmicks), Mini-Cons were significantly scaled back in ''Energon''.

[[File:Energon superion maximus toy.jpg|left|thumb|250px|Superion Maximus, the combined form of the [[Air Team]].]]
At the smallest price-point, the [[Omnicon]]s and [[Terrorcon (Energon)|Terrorcon]]s augment the larger toys with reconfigurable weapons, while the Mini-Cons sold at the same price are both combiner teams (one forming a weapon for larger toys). The "Combat Class" (aka Deluxe) and Mega Class Autobots can combine with each other to form two-bot [[combiner|gestalt]]s, each bot having both an "upper body" and "lower body" configuration (also referred to as "shirt" and "pants" by parts of the [[fandom]]) that could be combined with any other. The larger Autobot toys, however, mostly combine with their own accessories (dubbed "Brute Modes") in ways that do not allow for cross-compatibility outside of same-mold [[redeco]]s. [[Optimus Prime (Armada)/toys#Energon|Leader-Class Optimus Prime]] could also combine with two other larger Autobot toys, but again these combinations are quite specific and do not allow for real mix-and-match play.

Aside from the Mini-Con compatibility, the Decepticons were left out of the combination game (until the very tail-end of the line, at least), instead having "Hyper Modes" with built-in weapons that could be swung into attack position.

At the very back end of the series, five-robot "[[Scramble City (toyline)|Scramble City]]"-like combiners were released, three teams of four "Energon" (Basic) Class figures with a Combat-Class torso. Unfortunately, in order to make up for the mold-reuse that allowed for three teams to exist (each limb-mold was used twice per team), the teams were split up across waves, and the [[tail-ender]] phenomenon left many fans wondering if they would actually be able to complete these long-awaited sets.

As the line premiered riding the popularity boom from ''Armada'' and retailers were eager for more product, stores ended up ''massively'' over-ordering early ''Energon'' product, leading to extreme [[shelfwarmer|shelfwarming]] for the first two waves. The situation was so severe, Hasbro removed much of the older product from stores' inventory to get "The Powerlinx Battles" [[subline imprint|subline]] to shelves in time for the 2004 holiday season. Much of this early stock would reappear on store shelves in "buy one get one" bonus buys in ''very'' large numbers.

==Hasbro ''Energon'' toyline==
[[File:Thepowerlinxbattles logo.jpg|right|upright=1]]
As ''Transformers'' was still riding high on demand from ''Armada'', the early Hasbro line was filled out with several [[redeco]]ed and [[retool]]ed ''Armada'' toys.

{{note|Multiple figures in the ''Energon'' toyline were sold in both the standard and ''The Powerlinx Battles'' packaging. All of the cases where a figure was released in both packaging variants are marked with an asterisk below.}}

===General retail===
====Energon Class====
The Basic-sized [[Omnicon]]s and [[Terrorcon (Energon)|Terrorcon]]s came with clear [[Energon weapon]]s and "[[Energon star|Energon Chip]]s" that can be attached over the [[spark crystal]]s of the new-mold ''Energon'' toys. Chips and weapons were red-tinted for Omnicons, and green/yellow for Terrorcons. The final three waves consisted of the limb figures for the [[Air Team]], [[Construction Team]] and [[Destruction Team]] Powerlinx [[Combiner]]s (the torsos were sold as part of the Combat Class). The limb figures all came with add-on weapons and Energon Chips, cast in blue clear plastic, and these weapons formed the hands or feet of the combined robot.

====Combat Class====
Combat Class (and Mega Class, see below) Autobots, besides transforming from vehicle to robot, could also become the top or bottom half of a "[[Powerlinx]]" combination robot. While it was not widely advertised, the two size classes could freely inter-combine, with occasionally ludicrous results. This assortment also featured the torso figures for the combiners [[Superion Maximus]], [[Constructicon Maximus]] and [[Bruticus Maximus (Energon)|Bruticus Maximus]].

==Hasbro ''Energon'' European market releases==
{{anchor|Europe}}
For the most part, the European line was just the US line outlined above. However, two sets of [[KB Toys]]-exclusive toys from the [[Transformers: Universe (2003 toyline)|2003 ''Universe'' toyline]] got released under the ''Energon'' banner, because the ''Universe'' branding was not used in Europe at all.

==Takara ''Super Link'' toyline==
[[File:TF-Super-Link-Logo.png|300px|right|]]

Premiering about the same time as the Hasbro line, ''Super Link'' (a much more thematically-appropriate name) largely stuck with slight color tweaks. Takara also filled out the line with a few more redecoes of the Terrorcon drones in more limited numbers.

The [[energon weapon]]s were something of a bigger draw in the line, as the "powered up" redeco toys (the "Energon _____" toys in the Hasbro line) were given new-color Omnicon/Terrorcon energon weapons as a bonus. Speaking of redecoes, many of the new-character redecoes in the back end of the Hasbro line were put into the cartoon as powered-up forms of the original characters... but then were never released in Japan, not even as store-[[exclusive]] "[[USA Edition]]s". Even major-ish cartoon character [[Six Shot (Energon)|Six Shot]] was absent from the ''Super Link'' toyline. Weird!

''Super Link'' also coincided with the 30th anniversary of ''[[Microman]]'', the toyline that would eventually branch off as ''[[Micro Change]]'' and ''[[Diaclone]]'', the lines that would eventually give birth to ''Transformers''. Takara celebrated this joint anniversary by releasing toys of human ally [[Kicker Jones]] in the ''Microman'' format.

==Post-''Energon'' releases==
There's really not a lot to speak of, at least as far as "new" product goes. A great many ''Energon'' items were [[Transformers: Universe (2003 toyline)#Rebranding and other odds and ends (2005 - 2008)|re-branded under the original ''Transformers: Universe'' banner]] and sold at various "discount" chains, but those toys were all identical to the original releases outside of the packaging.

So we're only listing new stuff... and it's a small, small list.

Transformers: Energon (toyline)

2024-01-14T02:01:08Z

ScreamerFan: /* Combat Class */

{{nav-energon}}

[[File:Crosssell-energon1.jpg|right|400px|thumb|Tri-lingual packaging, kids! Remember, it's how everything will be by 2005!]]

'''''Transformers: Energon''''' followed up on the highly-successful ''[[Transformers: Armada (toyline)|Armada]]'' toyline, continuing its universe and carrying over a number of its popular characters in new forms. Set roughly ten years after the previous series, ''Energon'' brought in new sub-factions, new faces and new modes of play.

The line also fell on the 20th anniversary of the ''Transformers'' brand, which led to many toys and characters being more overt [[homage]]s to major characters from [[The Transformers (franchise)|Generation 1]] than past series produced. These homages did have a tendency to get garbled, though, due to different names or significantly altered characterization.

Unfortunately, the line, while moderately successful, didn't exactly light a fire under the brand the way ''Armada'' or ''[[Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2001 toyline)|Robots in Disguise]]'' had prior. A glut of early product, availability issues with later product, a less-than-cohesive play theme, and a poorly-received [[Transformers: Energon (cartoon)|advertising cartoon]] proved to be stumbling blocks, and Hasbro began to re-think how to take the line forward from there.

{{TOCclear}}

==Overview==
[[File:En-toy Strongarm.jpg|thumb|250px|Omnicon Strongarm]]
While ''Energon'' does have an overarching theme of "combination" ("[[energon]]" is oddly more of a minor feature in the line), it's not anywhere as clean-cut and uniform in actual execution as ''Armada''<nowiki>'s</nowiki> [[Mini-Con]] theme (or the [[Cyber Key]]s of the follow-up series ''[[Transformers: Cybertron (toyline)|Cybertron]]''). There are multiple types of combination going on, split up between the price points and factions, which can be a bit confusing at first. Though virtually every new-mold toy featured Mini-Con [[Powerlinx]]-compatible points for that form of combination (but did not activate any gimmicks), Mini-Cons were significantly scaled back in ''Energon''.

[[File:Energon superion maximus toy.jpg|left|thumb|250px|Superion Maximus, the combined form of the [[Air Team]].]]
At the smallest price-point, the [[Omnicon]]s and [[Terrorcon (Energon)|Terrorcon]]s augment the larger toys with reconfigurable weapons, while the Mini-Cons sold at the same price are both combiner teams (one forming a weapon for larger toys). The "Combat Class" (aka Deluxe) and Mega Class Autobots can combine with each other to form two-bot [[combiner|gestalt]]s, each bot having both an "upper body" and "lower body" configuration (also referred to as "shirt" and "pants" by parts of the [[fandom]]) that could be combined with any other. The larger Autobot toys, however, mostly combine with their own accessories (dubbed "Brute Modes") in ways that do not allow for cross-compatibility outside of same-mold [[redeco]]s. [[Optimus Prime (Armada)/toys#Energon|Leader-Class Optimus Prime]] could also combine with two other larger Autobot toys, but again these combinations are quite specific and do not allow for real mix-and-match play.

Aside from the Mini-Con compatibility, the Decepticons were left out of the combination game (until the very tail-end of the line, at least), instead having "Hyper Modes" with built-in weapons that could be swung into attack position.

At the very back end of the series, five-robot "[[Scramble City (toyline)|Scramble City]]"-like combiners were released, three teams of four "Energon" (Basic) Class figures with a Combat-Class torso. Unfortunately, in order to make up for the mold-reuse that allowed for three teams to exist (each limb-mold was used twice per team), the teams were split up across waves, and the [[tail-ender]] phenomenon left many fans wondering if they would actually be able to complete these long-awaited sets.

As the line premiered riding the popularity boom from ''Armada'' and retailers were eager for more product, stores ended up ''massively'' over-ordering early ''Energon'' product, leading to extreme [[shelfwarmer|shelfwarming]] for the first two waves. The situation was so severe, Hasbro removed much of the older product from stores' inventory to get "The Powerlinx Battles" [[subline imprint|subline]] to shelves in time for the 2004 holiday season. Much of this early stock would reappear on store shelves in "buy one get one" bonus buys in ''very'' large numbers.
{{-}}{{anchor|Hasbro}}

==Hasbro ''Energon'' toyline==
[[File:Thepowerlinxbattles logo.jpg|right|upright=1]]
As ''Transformers'' was still riding high on demand from ''Armada'', the early Hasbro line was filled out with several [[redeco]]ed and [[retool]]ed ''Armada'' toys.

{{note|Multiple figures in the ''Energon'' toyline were sold in both the standard and ''The Powerlinx Battles'' packaging. All of the cases where a figure was released in both packaging variants are marked with an asterisk below.}}

===General retail===
====Energon Class====
The Basic-sized [[Omnicon]]s and [[Terrorcon (Energon)|Terrorcon]]s came with clear [[Energon weapon]]s and "[[Energon star|Energon Chip]]s" that can be attached over the [[spark crystal]]s of the new-mold ''Energon'' toys. Chips and weapons were red-tinted for Omnicons, and green/yellow for Terrorcons. The final three waves consisted of the limb figures for the [[Air Team]], [[Construction Team]] and [[Destruction Team]] Powerlinx [[Combiner]]s (the torsos were sold as part of the Combat Class). The limb figures all came with add-on weapons and Energon Chips, cast in blue clear plastic, and these weapons formed the hands or feet of the combined robot.

====Combat Class====
Combat Class (and Mega Class, see below) Autobots, besides transforming from vehicle to robot, could also become the top or bottom half of a "[[Powerlinx]]" combination robot. While it was not widely advertised, the two size classes could freely inter-combine, with occasionally ludicrous results. This assortment also featured the torso figures for the combiners [[Superion Maximus]], [[Constructicon Maximus]] and [[Bruticus Maximus (Energon)|Bruticus Maximus]].

==Hasbro ''Energon'' European market releases==
{{anchor|Europe}}
For the most part, the European line was just the US line outlined above. However, two sets of [[KB Toys]]-exclusive toys from the [[Transformers: Universe (2003 toyline)|2003 ''Universe'' toyline]] got released under the ''Energon'' banner, because the ''Universe'' branding was not used in Europe at all.

==Takara ''Super Link'' toyline==
[[File:TF-Super-Link-Logo.png|300px|right|]]

Premiering about the same time as the Hasbro line, ''Super Link'' (a much more thematically-appropriate name) largely stuck with slight color tweaks. Takara also filled out the line with a few more redecoes of the Terrorcon drones in more limited numbers.

The [[energon weapon]]s were something of a bigger draw in the line, as the "powered up" redeco toys (the "Energon _____" toys in the Hasbro line) were given new-color Omnicon/Terrorcon energon weapons as a bonus. Speaking of redecoes, many of the new-character redecoes in the back end of the Hasbro line were put into the cartoon as powered-up forms of the original characters... but then were never released in Japan, not even as store-[[exclusive]] "[[USA Edition]]s". Even major-ish cartoon character [[Six Shot (Energon)|Six Shot]] was absent from the ''Super Link'' toyline. Weird!

''Super Link'' also coincided with the 30th anniversary of ''[[Microman]]'', the toyline that would eventually branch off as ''[[Micro Change]]'' and ''[[Diaclone]]'', the lines that would eventually give birth to ''Transformers''. Takara celebrated this joint anniversary by releasing toys of human ally [[Kicker Jones]] in the ''Microman'' format.

==Post-''Energon'' releases==
There's really not a lot to speak of, at least as far as "new" product goes. A great many ''Energon'' items were [[Transformers: Universe (2003 toyline)#Rebranding and other odds and ends (2005 - 2008)|re-branded under the original ''Transformers: Universe'' banner]] and sold at various "discount" chains, but those toys were all identical to the original releases outside of the packaging.

So we're only listing new stuff... and it's a small, small list.

Transformers: Energon (toyline)

2024-01-14T01:50:02Z

ScreamerFan: /* Energon Class */

{{nav-energon}}

[[File:Crosssell-energon1.jpg|right|400px|thumb|Tri-lingual packaging, kids! Remember, it's how everything will be by 2005!]]

'''''Transformers: Energon''''' followed up on the highly-successful ''[[Transformers: Armada (toyline)|Armada]]'' toyline, continuing its universe and carrying over a number of its popular characters in new forms. Set roughly ten years after the previous series, ''Energon'' brought in new sub-factions, new faces and new modes of play.

The line also fell on the 20th anniversary of the ''Transformers'' brand, which led to many toys and characters being more overt [[homage]]s to major characters from [[The Transformers (franchise)|Generation 1]] than past series produced. These homages did have a tendency to get garbled, though, due to different names or significantly altered characterization.

Unfortunately, the line, while moderately successful, didn't exactly light a fire under the brand the way ''Armada'' or ''[[Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2001 toyline)|Robots in Disguise]]'' had prior. A glut of early product, availability issues with later product, a less-than-cohesive play theme, and a poorly-received [[Transformers: Energon (cartoon)|advertising cartoon]] proved to be stumbling blocks, and Hasbro began to re-think how to take the line forward from there.

{{TOCclear}}

==Overview==
[[File:En-toy Strongarm.jpg|thumb|250px|Omnicon Strongarm]]
While ''Energon'' does have an overarching theme of "combination" ("[[energon]]" is oddly more of a minor feature in the line), it's not anywhere as clean-cut and uniform in actual execution as ''Armada''<nowiki>'s</nowiki> [[Mini-Con]] theme (or the [[Cyber Key]]s of the follow-up series ''[[Transformers: Cybertron (toyline)|Cybertron]]''). There are multiple types of combination going on, split up between the price points and factions, which can be a bit confusing at first. Though virtually every new-mold toy featured Mini-Con [[Powerlinx]]-compatible points for that form of combination (but did not activate any gimmicks), Mini-Cons were significantly scaled back in ''Energon''.

[[File:Energon superion maximus toy.jpg|left|thumb|250px|Superion Maximus, the combined form of the [[Air Team]].]]
At the smallest price-point, the [[Omnicon]]s and [[Terrorcon (Energon)|Terrorcon]]s augment the larger toys with reconfigurable weapons, while the Mini-Cons sold at the same price are both combiner teams (one forming a weapon for larger toys). The "Combat Class" (aka Deluxe) and Mega Class Autobots can combine with each other to form two-bot [[combiner|gestalt]]s, each bot having both an "upper body" and "lower body" configuration (also referred to as "shirt" and "pants" by parts of the [[fandom]]) that could be combined with any other. The larger Autobot toys, however, mostly combine with their own accessories (dubbed "Brute Modes") in ways that do not allow for cross-compatibility outside of same-mold [[redeco]]s. [[Optimus Prime (Armada)/toys#Energon|Leader-Class Optimus Prime]] could also combine with two other larger Autobot toys, but again these combinations are quite specific and do not allow for real mix-and-match play.

Aside from the Mini-Con compatibility, the Decepticons were left out of the combination game (until the very tail-end of the line, at least), instead having "Hyper Modes" with built-in weapons that could be swung into attack position.

At the very back end of the series, five-robot "[[Scramble City (toyline)|Scramble City]]"-like combiners were released, three teams of four "Energon" (Basic) Class figures with a Combat-Class torso. Unfortunately, in order to make up for the mold-reuse that allowed for three teams to exist (each limb-mold was used twice per team), the teams were split up across waves, and the [[tail-ender]] phenomenon left many fans wondering if they would actually be able to complete these long-awaited sets.

As the line premiered riding the popularity boom from ''Armada'' and retailers were eager for more product, stores ended up ''massively'' over-ordering early ''Energon'' product, leading to extreme [[shelfwarmer|shelfwarming]] for the first two waves. The situation was so severe, Hasbro removed much of the older product from stores' inventory to get "The Powerlinx Battles" [[subline imprint|subline]] to shelves in time for the 2004 holiday season. Much of this early stock would reappear on store shelves in "buy one get one" bonus buys in ''very'' large numbers.

==Hasbro ''Energon'' toyline==
[[File:Thepowerlinxbattles logo.jpg|right|upright=1]]
As ''Transformers'' was still riding high on demand from ''Armada'', the early Hasbro line was filled out with several [[redeco]]ed and [[retool]]ed ''Armada'' toys.

{{note|Multiple figures in the ''Energon'' toyline were sold in both the standard and ''The Powerlinx Battles'' packaging. All of the cases where a figure was released in both packaging variants are marked with an asterisk below.}}

===General retail===
====Energon Class====
The Basic-sized [[Omnicon]]s and [[Terrorcon (Energon)|Terrorcon]]s came with clear [[Energon weapon]]s and "[[Energon star|Energon Chip]]s" that can be attached over the [[spark crystal]]s of the new-mold ''Energon'' toys. Chips and weapons were red-tinted for Omnicons, and green/yellow for Terrorcons. The final three waves consisted of the limb figures for the [[Air Team]], [[Construction Team]] and [[Destruction Team]] Powerlinx [[Combiner]]s (the torsos were sold as part of the Combat Class). The limb figures all came with add-on weapons and Energon Chips, cast in blue clear plastic, and these weapons formed the hands or feet of the combined robot.

====Combat Class====
Combat Class (and Mega Class, see below) Autobots, besides transforming from vehicle to robot, could also become the top or bottom half of a "[[Powerlinx]]" combination robot. While it was not widely advertised, the two size classes could freely inter-combine, with occasionally ludicrous results. This assortment also featured the torso figures for the combiners [[Superion Maximus]], [[Constructicon Maximus]] and [[Bruticus Maximus (Energon)|Bruticus Maximus]].

==Hasbro ''Energon'' European market releases==
{{anchor|Europe}}
For the most part, the European line was just the US line outlined above. However, two sets of [[KB Toys]]-exclusive toys from the [[Transformers: Universe (2003 toyline)|2003 ''Universe'' toyline]] got released under the ''Energon'' banner, because the ''Universe'' branding was not used in Europe at all.

==Takara ''Super Link'' toyline==
[[File:TF-Super-Link-Logo.png|300px|right|]]

Premiering about the same time as the Hasbro line, ''Super Link'' (a much more thematically-appropriate name) largely stuck with slight color tweaks. Takara also filled out the line with a few more redecoes of the Terrorcon drones in more limited numbers.

The [[energon weapon]]s were something of a bigger draw in the line, as the "powered up" redeco toys (the "Energon _____" toys in the Hasbro line) were given new-color Omnicon/Terrorcon energon weapons as a bonus. Speaking of redecoes, many of the new-character redecoes in the back end of the Hasbro line were put into the cartoon as powered-up forms of the original characters... but then were never released in Japan, not even as store-[[exclusive]] "[[USA Edition]]s". Even major-ish cartoon character [[Six Shot (Energon)|Six Shot]] was absent from the ''Super Link'' toyline. Weird!

''Super Link'' also coincided with the 30th anniversary of ''[[Microman]]'', the toyline that would eventually branch off as ''[[Micro Change]]'' and ''[[Diaclone]]'', the lines that would eventually give birth to ''Transformers''. Takara celebrated this joint anniversary by releasing toys of human ally [[Kicker Jones]] in the ''Microman'' format.

==Post-''Energon'' releases==
There's really not a lot to speak of, at least as far as "new" product goes. A great many ''Energon'' items were [[Transformers: Universe (2003 toyline)#Rebranding and other odds and ends (2005 - 2008)|re-branded under the original ''Transformers: Universe'' banner]] and sold at various "discount" chains, but those toys were all identical to the original releases outside of the packaging.

So we're only listing new stuff... and it's a small, small list.

Transformers: Armada (toyline)

2023-10-17T21:10:22Z

ScreamerFan: /* Mini-Con 3-packs */

{{nav-armada}}

[[File:Armadatoy-HotShot.jpg|thumb|300px|right|Super-Con Class Hot Shot with Jolt]]

'''''Transformers: Armada''''' marked a fresh start for the [[Transformers brand]], a reinvention that introduced a whole new universe and backstory for the robots in disguise. The [[Franchises|franchise]] also introduced a new faction, the [[Mini-Con]]s, the line's most distinctive element, as ''every'' larger toy included one or more Mini-Con partners.

The line was a hit with kids; the simpler, cleaner transformations made the toys more accessible than prior lines, plus the wealth of action [[gimmick]]s gave every toy more to ''do''. The numerous Mini-Cons in particular proved popular with fans and children alike, and have continued on into many subsequent toylines. It did so well out of the gate that the line had to be expanded beyond its initial offerings pretty quickly, and began the next four-ish years of direct sequels, an era that would come to be known as the "[[Unicron Trilogy continuity family|Unicron Trilogy]]".

{{TOCclear}}

==Overview==
[[File:Arm-toy Demolishor.jpg|upright=1.66|thumb|right|Super-Con Class Demolishor, packed to the gills with gimmicks.]]

The toyline marked a sharp change of design direction from the intricate, sometimes frustrating complexity found in the prior ''[[Beast Wars: Transformers (toyline)|Beast Wars]]'', ''[[Beast Machines: Transformers (toyline)|Beast Machines]]'', and [[Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2001 toyline)|''Robots in Disguise'']] lines (that last one being a particular point of contention with parents). The early offerings in particular are blocky, easy to transform, sturdy and colorful. [[Articulation]] tends to be reduced, sacrificed to keep price down in light of the need to add a Mini-Con partner and multiple intricate [[gimmick]]s to every mold. [[Ball joint]]s largely disappeared from the non-Mini-Con toys in favor of permanently-joined swivels. The aesthetics of larger robots hearken back more to the blocky concepts of [[The Transformers (toyline)|Generation 1]], while the Mini-Cons tend to be more experimental, with odd facial designs and non-standard limbs.

The overall aesthetics of the toyline also hearken back towards the ''Transformers'' franchises' {{w|mecha}} roots as a whole, as a lot of the figures took inspiration from the other popular mecha franchises of the time, such as ''{{w|Gundam}}''; design aesthetics that had—for the most part—swerved the Western ''Transformers'' world entirely, being mostly restricted to the [[Fight! Super Robot Lifeform Transformers (toyline)|Japanese Generation 1 toyline]], with such examples being [[Star Saber (G1)#Toys|Star Saber]] and [[Dai Atlas (G1)#Toys|Dai Atlas]]. Part of this change in aesthetics for the Western franchise was brought on by the then-[[Hasbro]] ''Transformers'' lead designer, [[Aaron Archer]], who had travelled in and out of Japan during the line's inception, while working closely with [[TakaraTomy|Takara]], and had taken inspiration from various magazines and store displays around him at the time, trying to create something Western fans hadn't really seen in ''Transformers'' before.

Each larger toy features a "central" gimmick which can only be activated by attaching—aka "[[Powerlinx]]ing"—a Mini-Con to the appropriate hardpoint; the socket on each Mini-Con has a central pin that presses a recessed button within the hardpoint. Though most transformation schemes are simple, many of the "Powerlinx"-activated gimmicks are quite complex and innovative, such as [[Hot Shot (Armada)/toys#Armada|Hot Shot]]'s fan-coined "axlezooka", [[Scavenger (Armada)#Armada|Scavenger]]'s stompy-stompy action, and [[Megatron (Armada)/toys#Armada|Megatron]]'s turret-mounted twin-missile launcher. Electronic lights and sounds also became standard on nearly all toys larger than Deluxe/Super-Con Class. Most non-Mini-Con toys also have multiple hardpoints that don't activate any gimmicks, but as many Mini-Cons have working missile launchers, or third "weapon modes", or other combat-style gimmicks, or can be oriented to ''resemble'' guns and blades and so on, these hardpoints allow robots to be kitted out with all kinds of gear, a play pattern that would be revived in later lines like the Takara version of ''[[Transformers: Prime (toyline)#Super Robot Lifeform Transformers Prime (Arms Micron)|Transformers: Prime]]'' with its [[Arms Micron]]s and the ''[[War for Cybertron Trilogy (toyline)|War for Cybertron Trilogy]]'' with the "[[C.O.M.B.A.T. System]]" and its successors. Whether it was intentional or not, when slapping all of these Mini-Cons onto a single figure, they start to look closer to a ''{{w|Super Sentai}}''/''[[Power Rangers]]'' Megazord, as the ridiculousness of having ten or so individual figures attached to a single figure, restricts the already-limited articulation, and looks hilariously awesome.

As with ''Robots in Disguise'', the back end of the series featured same-character [[redeco]]es of toys in "powered up" modes, and this practice of heavy mold-re-use would continue on into the future to combat the ever-rising costs of production. The line was further bulked up by redecoes/[[retool]]s of several ''Beast Wars'' [[Transmetal]] toys, reworked to be Mini-Con compatible (despite a lack of any kind of action gimmicks), as early sales and subsequent retailer demand exceeded expectations, and they had to get ''something'' out relatively quick.

[[File:Theunicronbattles logo.jpg|thumb|upright=1.66|right]]

Towards the end, the line veered in an unexpected direction, with the introduction of the massive [[Unicron/toys#Armada|Unicron]], a ''huge'' toy based on the character from ''[[The Transformers: The Movie]]'', and arguably the greatest wish-fulfillment yet offered to fans from Hasbro, as no toy of this monstrosity had yet seen release. To promote this massive toy, the ongoing storylines of both the cartoon and comic abruptly changed direction to feature the character as their central plot element, and the toyline itself gained a [[subline imprint]] promoting him in '''''The Unicron Battles'''''. The initial wave of this subline imprint used the original red and blue ''Armada'' packaging with an added "''The Unicron Battles''" logo sticker, whereas the second version sported a new color scheme in orange, blue and black that had the ''Unicron Battles'' logo as an integral part of its packaging design for the larger toys. Some toys ended up being available in all three packaging variants.

''Armada'' saw a bit of a price jump (production costs again), as the $20 "Max-Con" size class replaced the $15 Mega Class of past lines, while the $25 "Giga-Cons" replaced the $20 Ultras. This was offset by the fact that ''Armada'' toys overall tended to be somewhat more bulky and massive than their predecessors, plus contained much more intricate internal mechanisms and electronic features as well.
{{--}}

==Development==
''Armada'' was driven by [[Brian Goldner]] wanting a collectible play toyline as seen in Japan and wanting to bring [[TakaraTomy|Takara]] in as co-developer. Takara, for their part, was extremely eager to come in as a co-developer on ''Transformers'' again to have some control on what the new toys would be and make sure they were commercial for the Japanese market as well. They brought in a horde of toy concept ideas that would shape the line, and a small team of Hasbro and Takara staffers were given leeway to develop the new idea.<ref>"Brian Goldner wanted to get back to basics, and he wanted a 'collectible' kind of concept. He was familiar with what was happening in Japan prior with various types of collectible play, small play, micro play, things that- years before anything like that came to the western markets. […] So he understood the potential, and to that end I'll just say, he put a lot of trust in me to make this happen—tremendous amount of trust, when you think about what he was trying to do, because it was really a very small group of us and I was really the only designer that made this happen at the time. So his goal was to have the collectibility, that presented Takara the opportunity to pitch a lot of different ideas that they have had over the years, they were very much happy to- well, let me take a half step back. What Brian also wanted was to bring back was that co-development. […] For a few years, they were kind of like a partner-vendor; we would come up with ideas and what they would want for the ''Beast Wars'' stuff, and Takara would kind of make that happen, even though it wasn't necessarily an item they were going to sell in their market. […] So they were eager to get a better partnership, we were eager to get a better partnership, just to make better overall product: co-develop the animation, co-develop the products, co-develop all of it."—[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vNgWvNmMJfE&t=620s Aaron Archer on ''The Toy Armada'', 2021/12/14]</ref><ref>{{citesocial|quote=Hasbro did 60% of the character designs, all the colors, names and background info and many of the heads. Takara did the toy eng. some bios and rough design and models work.|name=Aaron Archer|site=TFW2005|year=circa 2002}}</ref>

One early idea from Takara was individual Mini-Cons would work at unlocking features on specific Autobots and Decepticons, rather than working for all of them. [[Aaron Archer]] argued that American kids would just jam any Mini-Con into the slot and get frustrated it wasn't working.<Ref>"Takara, if left to their original concepts—each Mini-Con would have been unique to unlock that car's feature. They were always very, 'particular key fits a particular lock', where I always had to defend the dumb American kids—is how I used to refer to it—that would just try to jam any key or any Mini-Con into the port and be upset that it wouldn't work."—[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vNgWvNmMJfE&t=1168s Aaron Archer on ''The Toy Armada'', 2021/12/14]</ref>

==Hasbro ''Armada'' toyline==
{{stub|All of the store-exclusive Hasbro multi-packs.}}

===Mini-Con 3-packs===
Mini-Cons were sold in carded three-packs at the Basic/Scout price point, each team defined by a particular gimmick or theme. Though only slightly larger than their closest precedent, the [[Micromaster]]s, they generally featured greatly improved articulation, complexity, and originality of design.

{{Note|The Tiny Tin Mini-Cons were only available in ''Armada'' packaging in Europe.

Meanwhile, the red version of Powerlinx Thrust was ''almost'' a European exclusive, since it was also available as a "[[USA Edition]]" in Japan (see below).}}

==Takara ''Legends of the Microns'' toyline==
[[TakaraTomy|Takara]]'s take on ''Armada'', hitting stores a bit later than the Hasbro version, has some small but significant differences, largely in the decos. With a closer tie to the [[Transformers: Armada (cartoon)|animation]], the toys had their colors tweaked to make them closer to their animation counterparts. This ranges from the small and subtle to completely different color schemes.

Takara also went ''nuts'' with the Mini-Cons. All but one of the three-pack teams got "[[Exdimensions]]" redecoes at normal retail, and some of the earlier molds got multiple redecoes as limited-edition store-[[exclusive]] promotional giveaways.

==Sonokong ''Eunha Yeongung: Cybertron'' toyline==
From [[2003]] to [[2005]], Takara licensee [[Sonokong]] released a smaller selection of ''Legends of the Microns'' toys in [[South Korea|Korea]], under the name '''''Eunha Yeongung: Cybertron''''' (은하영웅 사이버트론 ''Eunha Yeongung Saibeoteulon'', lit. "Galactic Heroes: Cybertrons"). The ID numbers, and the figures themselves are the same as their Takara releases. The only differences between the Japanese and Korean releases is the packaging.

* A redeco of the Street Speed Team seen at [[OTFCC 2003]]—one-off "color shifts" of the Japanese Street Speed Micron Overdrive Edition—was intended for mass release, but never saw the light of day.
* Redecos of the Adventure and Space Teams surfaced from China, but were likewise not released.
* At OTFCC 2003, it was announced that the more show-accurate Japanese version of Wheeljack and Wind Sheer would be released in the North American line as a running change. That never happened.
* Likewise, the red version of Powerlinx Thrust was supposed to hit North American shores as a running change, but never did… although it DID see release in Japan, Europe, and Israel(!).
* A [[Powerlinx]] Blurr toy was supposed to see release alongside Demolishor, but was canned; the deco (or some variation thereof) was eventually released as [[Swerve (Universe)#Universe_.282003.29|''Universe'' Swerve]].<ref>{{citesocial|quote=With Armada selling well we are still making Blurr so we pushed out the PL version till late next year.

==Post-''Armada'' releases==
Though it does not quite (yet) have the nostalgia-pull of older series, ''Armada'' has nonetheless had a number of toys released based on its characters, and even several all-new characters put into its universe since the Unicron Trilogy closed up shop. (Obviously, we're not counting toys from the direct-sequel series here.)

==Notes==
* According to [[Aaron Archer]] during his stint as ORSON, the Armada Autobots and Decepticons had intentionally different design aesthetics. The Autobots were designed to be symmetrical with clean lines and detailing, while the Decepticons had asymmetrical sculpts and details to invoke a more foreboding and battle-worn feel. A good example of this would be [[Hot Shot (Armada)/toys#ArDx1|Hot Shot]] versus [[Cyclonus (Armada)#Armada|Cyclonus]].
* The official Hasbro press releases for ''Armada'' used the pricepoint titles from the ''Beast Wars'' era - Deluxe, Mega and Ultra - instead of Super-Con, Max-Con and Giga-Con, the designations specifically created for the toyline. Confusingly, one press release even referred to the "Mega Figure Assortment" as consisting of "MAXCON figures"…<ref>http://groups.google.com/group/alt.toys.transformers/msg/b11879ad57a742ca?hl=en</ref>
* While early toys in Hasbro's ''Armada'' line used insignias without painted outlines (AKA "blob symbols"), starting with some shipments of Sideways and all later waves, the insignias received painted outlines like Takara's versions.<ref>{{citesocial|quote=Up until now, the insignias have been painted with no background detail. Starting with some shipments of Sideswipe and all figures in later waves, Hasbro's Armada insignias will be painted with background detail much like Takara's Micron Densetsu take of these molds.|link=https://news.tfw2005.com/2003/03/11/orsons-world-news-311-55|name=Tim Formas|site=TFW2005|year=2003|month=03|day=11}}</ref>
* There were two different types of ''Unicron Battles'' packaging: The first version was simply the original red and blue ''Armada'' packaging with an added "''The Unicron Battles''" logo sticker, whereas the second version sported a new color scheme in black, orange and blue that had the "''Unicron Battles''" logo as an integral part of its packaging design for the larger toys. Some toys were available in all three packaging variants.
* For the Japanese version of the line, Takara took the unusual step of picking and choosing [[package art]] from the Hasbro line, with just about all of [[Don Figueroa]] and [[Guido Guidi]]'s art being carried over, while the rest was replaced with new work. No explanation has ever been given, although most of the replaced art originally depicted the character incorrectly (Megatron's treads being mounted on his back instead of his shoulders) or just very inaccurately (Jetfire's everything).
* ''Armada'' continued a habit from the [[Beast Era]] and ''[[Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2001 franchise)|Robots in Disguise]]'' of reusing "G1" trademarks for characters who fit the ''vibe'' but were otherwise unrelated to those '80s characters. Hasbro designer [[Aaron Archer]] had been tasked with re-securing key trademarks and iconography that had been allowed to lapse, and so he'd usually pick several names for each toy in case his first choice didn't clear legal, but the names chosen were decidedly a secondary consideration to the toys themselves. For example, had the first choice of "[[Blurr (Armada)|Blurr]]" not been available, the second choice option was "[[Silverbolt (disambiguation)|Silverbolt]]", followed by "[[Groove (G1)|Groove]]".<ref>{{citesocial|quote=I like the use of the name. "Blurr" was a great name from back in the day. Again, this is an era where I'm not- I'm just trying to regain the assets of the brand, and not really caring at all about how it played with G1 or what came before, because that really wasn't something we had to worry about at all. That was not under our purview, to keep the heritage going, so to speak. That kind of came later. So I was just trying to use cool names, Blurr is obviously a great, simple get. I love names that sound like what they do or what they are.|link=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7rwGRYaeC8U&t=470s|name=Aaron Archer|site=''The Toy Armada''|title=Toy Armada Friday Night LIVE - Armada BLURR and more!|year=2023|month=03|day=17}}</ref><ref>{{citesocial|quote='Sleek Car. Type: rocket on wheels, Ferrari-type.' This is the notes from our working rollout. 'Triple change, flight mode, hand-held weapon. Mini-Con partner race dragster. Main character role. Interceptor. October '02.' So that's how we thought of that character. Alright, names, Sleek Car… first choice was… was what it was, I guess, so I guess we went with the first choice we had. Choice #2 was Silverbolt, choice #3 was Groove. I did not have a choice #4. Mini-Con names: Drag Strip, Crashor, Overdrive. Those were the options. Why we had so many options was, on this sheet, I went down the line, if something didn't get approved by legal, we dropped that one out, and moved the next one up.

* Each of the Mini-Con teams were seemingly created with a certain theme, gimmick, or functionality in mind that matches up with specific figures of the larger varieties. Evidence of this can be found in both the US and Japanese versions of the toylines, that feature Mini-Con teams included as pack-ins with other figures, as well as [[Transformers: Armada (cartoon)|the cartoon]] advertising them paired in this way. Some of these pairings are a little on the odd side, however, and probably don't have much of a common "theme" outside of cartoon-based fiction or just a way to make a quick buck. These include:
** [[Optimus Prime (Armada)/toys#Armada|Super Base Optimus Prime]] and the [[Street Action Mini-Con Team#Toys|Street Action Mini-Con Team]] – released as a set in Japan, specially as repaints. This was likely only done due to them both being the leaders of their respective factions.
** [[Hot Shot (Armada)/toys#Armada|Hot Shot]] and the [[Air Defense Mini-Con Team (Armada)#Toys|Air Defense Mini-Con Team]]/[[Star Saber (Armada)#Toys|Star Saber]] – released as a set in Japan, and was shown in the beginning half of the cartoon. The Japanese "Hot Rod" toy also includes a light-up feature in his right hand for this specific purpose, but it was absent for the US release. Super Base Optimus Prime similarly features a light-up feature in his right [[Super Mode]] hand, for this very purpose.
** [[Smokescreen (Armada)#Toys|Smokescreen]] and the [[Race Mini-Con Team#Toys|Race Mini-Con Team]]/[[Skyboom (Armada)|Skyboom Shield]] – released as a set in Japan, and was shown in the cartoon. In the cartoon, Smokescreen's extending crane boom was utilized as a launcher for the Skyboom Shield. The cartoon kept up with this when he was rebuilt into Hoist, utilizing his the shovel arm as a swinging catapult.
** [[Smokescreen (Armada)#Hoist|Hoist]] and the [[Adventure Mini-Con Team#Toys|Adventure Mini-Con Team]] – released as a set in Japan. Hoist was originally intended to feature a gearing gimmick like Cyclonus, that was supposed to be activated by pushing on the shovel rod, but this was dropped on the final toy. Hoist's standard pack-in partner, [[Refute (Armada)#Toys|Refute]], still features the intended interactive gearing mechanism, but can't be utilized with Cyclonus's present gearing mechanism, due to him being too big. Cyclonus ''can'' function with the Adventure Mini-Con Team members, though.
** [[Blurr (Armada)#Toys|Blurr]] and the [[Street Speed Mini-Con Team#Toys|Street Speed Mini-Con Team]] – released as a set in Japan. This was likely done due to their shared connection of racing in-universe. Other than that, there isn't a whole lot that connects these two in any meaningful way.
** [[Jetfire (Armada)#Toys|Jetfire]] and the [[Space Mini-Con Team#Toys|Space Mini-Con Team]]/[[Requiem Blaster (Armada)#Toys|Requiem Blaster]] – released as a "Bonus Pack" in the US. This is pretty self-explanatory, as they're all space-related [[alternate mode]]s.
** [[Megatron (Armada)/toys#ArmadaGalvatron|Galvatron]] and the [[Night Attack Mini-Con Team#Toys|Night Attack Mini-Con Team]] – released as a "Bonus Pack" in the US. All of them are military vehicles, and repaints of existing molds? Yeah, we don't really know the reasoning behind this either, that's the best we could come up with.
** [[Demolishor (Armada)#Toys|Demolishor]] and the [[Land Military Mini-Con Team#Toys|Land Military Mini-Con Team]] – released as a set in Japan, and was shown in the cartoon. All of them feature military vehicle modes that compliment one another. Aside from commanding the team as a whole on-screen in some episodes, [[Bonecrusher (Armada)|Bonecrusher]] was presented as [[Palace#Continuity notes|Demolishor's ''true'' Mini-Con partner]].
** [[Cyclonus (Armada)#Toys|Cyclonus]] and the [[Destruction Mini-Con Team#Toys|Destruction Mini-Con Team]] – released as a set in Japan, and partially shown in the cartoon. Cyclonus and this Mini-Con team feature gearing mechanisms that can be linked to one another. Much like Demolishor, [[Drill Bit (Armada)|Drill Bit]] was shown to be one of two partner Mini-Cons for Cyclonus—in fact—he was actually utilized by Cyclonus on-screen more than [[Crumplezone (Armada)|Crumplezone]] ever was.
** [[Thrust (Armada)#Toys|Thrust]] and the [[Air Military Mini-Con Team#Toys|Air Military Mini-Con Team]] – released as a set in Japan, and was shown being directly commanded by Thrust in the cartoon.
** [[Tidal Wave (Armada)#Toys|Tidal Wave]] and the [[Sea Mini-Con Team#Toys|Sea Mini-Con Team]] – only shown once in the cartoon. All of their alternate modes are water-based, and all of the Sea Mini-Con Team members feature bending knees and the same sized "butts", which allow them to sit perfectly in between the grooves of Tidal Wave's hovercraft modes' flip-out troop-carrying seats.
** Takara "[[Wheeljack (Armada)#Toys|Rampage]]" (Wheeljack) and the Takara [[Aerial Extermination Mini-Con Team#Toys|Air Assault Microns]]/[[Vorpal Saber#Toys|Dark Star Saber]] – released as a set in Japan. This was never shown in the cartoon or any other media, and was likely done as Hot Shot—Wheeljack's friend-turned-archrival—is packaged with the Star Saber in Japan. The US [[Air Defense Mini-Con Team (Armada)#AirAssault|Air Assault Mini-Con Team]]/[[Star Saber (Armada)#AirAssault|Dark Star Saber]] was released as a "corrupted" version of the regular Star Saber; meant to represent it when it is being utilized by the Decepticons, specifically [[Megatron (Armada)/toys#Armada|Megatron/Galvatron]]. Whether or not it was intentional, Megatron lacks any form of light-up feature in his hand, so the Hasbro release of the team being molded in opaque plastics makes sense since there's no light needed to pass through it.
: The only Mini-Con team that isn't "officially" paired with anyone (aside from the other ''Unicron Battles'' repaints), is the [[Emergency Mini-Con Team#Toys|Emergency Mini-Con Team]], but given the alternate mode theme, they fit rather nicely with [[Red Alert (Armada)#Toys|Red Alert]].

*'''Starscream''' (Warrior, 2023)

:Part of the third wave of ''[[Transformers: EarthSpark (toyline)| EarthSpark]]'' Warrior-class toys, Starscream is another [[redeco]] of the ''[[Transformers: Cyberverse (toyline)|Cyberverse]]'' [[Starscream (Cyberverse)#Warrior_Class|Starscream]] toy, converting from robot to jet and back. His Action Attack gimmick is activated by winding up a spring in his waist and releasing the upper part of the figure, allowing it to spin and flip out its spring-loaded wing blades with centrifugal force. The waist can be locked in place by pegging his landing gear onto a peg on his backside. Additionally, he has non-firing blasters molded into his forearms with [[5 mm post]] hole hands.

:This figure was listed on French toy website "joueclub.fr", prior to any official announcement by Hasbro.

Transformers: Armada (toyline)

[[File:Armadatoy-HotShot.jpg|thumb|300px|right|Hot Shot with Jolt]]

'''''Transformers: Armada''''' marked a fresh start for the [[Transformers brand]], a reinvention that introduced a whole new universe and backstory for the robots in disguise. The [[Franchises|franchise]] also introduced a new faction, the [[Mini-Con]]s, the line's most distinctive element, as ''every'' larger toy included one or more Mini-Con partners.

The line was a hit with kids; the simpler, cleaner transformations made the toys more accessible than prior lines, plus the wealth of action [[gimmick]]s gave every toy more to ''do''. The numerous Mini-Cons in particular proved popular with fans and children alike, and have continued on into many subsequent toylines. It did so well out of the gate that the line had to be expanded beyond its initial offerings pretty quickly, and began the next four-ish years of direct sequels, an era that would come to be known as the "[[Unicron Trilogy]]".

{{TOCclear}}

==Overview==
[[File:Arm-toy Demolishor.jpg|upright=1.66|thumb|right|Demolishor, packed to the gills with gimmicks.]]

The toyline marked a sharp change of design direction from the intricate, sometimes frustrating complexity found in the prior ''[[Beast Wars: Transformers (toyline)|Beast Wars]]'', ''[[Beast Machines: Transformers (toyline)|Beast Machines]]'', and [[Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2001 toyline)|''Robots in Disguise'']] lines (that last one being a particular point of contention with parents). The early offerings in particular are blocky, easy to transform, sturdy and colorful. [[Articulation]] tends to be reduced, sacrificed to keep price down in light of the need to add a Mini-Con partner and multiple intricate [[gimmick]]s to every mold. [[Ball joint]]s largely disappeared from the non-Mini-Con toys in favor of permanently-joined swivels. The aesthetics of larger robots hearken back more to the blocky concepts of [[The Transformers (toyline)|Generation 1]], while the Mini-Cons tend to be more experimental, with odd facial designs and non-standard limbs.

Each larger toy features a "central" gimmick which can only be activated by attaching —aka "[[Powerlinx]]ing"— a Mini-Con to the appropriate hardpoint; the socket on each Mini-Con has a central pin that presses a recessed button within the hardpoint. Though most transformation schemes are simple, many of the "Powerlinx"-activated gimmicks are quite complex and innovative, such as [[Hot Shot (Armada)/toys#Armada|Hot Shot]]'s "axelzooka", [[Scavenger (Armada)#Toys|Scavenger]]'s stompy-stompy action, and [[Megatron (Armada)/toys#Armada|Megatron]]'s turret-mounted twin-missile launcher. Electronic lights and sounds also became standard on nearly all toys larger than Deluxe/Super-Con. Most non-Mini-Con toys also have multiple hardpoints that didn't activate any gimmicks, but as many Mini-Cons have working missile launchers or third "weapon modes" or other combat-style gimmicks or can be oriented to ''resemble'' guns and blades and so on, these hardpoints allow robots to be kitted out with all kinds of gear, a play pattern that would be revived in later lines like the Takara version of ''[[Transformers: Prime (toyline)#Super Robot Lifeform Transformers Prime (Arms Micron)|Transformers: Prime]]'' with its [[Arms Micron]]s and the ''[[War for Cybertron Trilogy (toyline)|War for Cybertron Trilogy]]'' with the "[[C.O.M.B.A.T. System]]" and its successors.

As with ''Robots in Disguise'', the back end of the series featured same-character [[redeco]]es of toys in "powered up" modes, and this practice of heavy mold-re-use would continue on into the future to combat the ever-rising costs of production. The line was further bulked up by redecoes/[[retool]]s of several ''Beast Wars'' [[Transmetal]] toys, reworked to be Mini-Con compatible (despite a lack of any kind of action gimmicks), as early sales and subsequent retailer demand exceeded expectations, and they had to get ''something'' out relatively quick.

[[File:Theunicronbattles logo.jpg|thumb|upright=1.66|right]]

Towards the end, the line veered in an unexpected direction, with the introduction of the massive [[Unicron/toys#Armada|Unicron]], a ''huge'' toy based on the character from ''[[The Transformers: The Movie]]'', and arguably the greatest wish-fulfillment yet offered to fans from Hasbro, as no toy of this monstrosity had yet seen release. To promote this massive toy, the ongoing storylines of both cartoon and comic changed direction to feature the character as their central plot element, and the toyline itself gained a [[subline imprint]] promoting him in "'''The Unicron Battles'''". The initial wave of this [[subline imprint]] used the original red and blue ''Armada'' packaging with an added "The Unicron Battles" logo sticker, whereas the second version sported a new color scheme in orange, blue and black that had the "Unicron Battles" logo as an integral part of its packaging design for the larger toys. Some toys ended up being available in all three packaging variants.

''Armada'' saw a bit of a price jump (production costs again), as the $20 "Max-Con" size replaced the $15 Mega class of past lines, while the $25 "Giga-Cons" replaced the $20 Ultras. This was offset by the fact that ''Armada'' toys overall tended to be somewhat more bulky and massive than their predecessors, plus contained much more intricate internal mechanisms and electronic features as well.

{{-}}

==Development==
''Armada'' was driven by [[Brian Goldner]] wanting a collectible play toyline as seen in Japan and wanting to bring [[Takara]] in as co-developer. Takara, for their part, was extremely eager to come in as a co-developer on ''Transformers'' again to have some control on what the new toys would be and make sure they were commercial for the Japanese market as well. They brought in a horde of toy concept ideas that would shape the line, and a small team of Hasbro and Takara staffers were given leeway to develop the new idea.<ref>"Brian Goldner wanted to get back to basics, and he wanted a 'collectible' kind of concept. He was familiar with what was happening in Japan prior with various types of collectible play, small play, micro play, things that- years before anything like that came to the western markets. [...] So he understood the potential, and to that end I'll just say, he put a lot of trust in me to make this happen—tremendous amount of trust, when you think about what he was trying to do, because it was really a very small group of us and I was really the only designer that made this happen at the time. So his goal was to have the collectibility, that presented Takara the opportunity to pitch a lot of different ideas that they have had over the years, they were very much happy to- well, let me take a half step back. What Brian also wanted was to bring back was that co-development. [...] For a few years, they were kind of like a partner-vendor; we would come up with ideas and what they would want for the ''Beast Wars'' stuff, and Takara would kind of make that happen, even though it wasn't necessarily an item they were going to sell in their market. [...] So they were eager to get a better partnership, we were eager to get a better partnership, just to make better overall product: co-develop the animation, co-develop the products, co-develop all of it."—[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vNgWvNmMJfE&t=620s Aaron Archer on ''The Toy Armada'', 2021/12/14]</ref><ref>{{citesocial|quote=Hasbro did 60% of the character designs, all the colors, names and background info and many of the heads. Takara did the toy eng. some bios and rough design and models work.|name=Aaron Archer|site=TFW2005|year=circa 2002}}</ref>

One early idea from Takara was individual Mini-Cons would work at unlocking features on specific Autobots and Decepticons, rather than working for all of them. [[Aaron Archer]] argued that American kids would just jam any Mini-Con into the slot and get frustrated it wasn't working.<Ref>"Takara, if left to their original concepts—each Mini-Con would have been unique to unlock that car's feature. They were always very, 'particular key fits a particular lock', where I always had to defend the dumb American kids—is how I used to refer to it—that would just try to jam any key or any Mini-Con into the port and be upset that it wouldn't work."—[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vNgWvNmMJfE&t=1168s Aaron Archer on ''The Toy Armada'', 2021/12/14]</ref>

===Mini-Con 3-packs===
Mini-Cons were sold in carded three-packs at the Basic/Scout price point, each team defined by a particular gimmick or theme. Though only slightly larger than their closest precedent, the [[Micromaster]]s, they generally featured greatly improved articulation, complexity, and originality of design.

==Takara ''Legends of the Microns'' toyline==
[[TakaraTomy|Takara]]'s take on ''Armada'', hitting stores a bit later than the Hasbro version, has some small but significant differences, largely in the decos. With a closer tie to the [[Transformers: Armada (cartoon)|animation]], the toys had their colors tweaked to make them closer to their animation counterparts. This ranges from the small and subtle to completely different color schemes.

Takara also went ''nuts'' with the Mini-Cons. All but one of the three-pack teams got "[[Exdimensions]]" redecoes at normal retail, and some of the earlier molds got multiple redecoes as limited-edition store-[[exclusive]] promotional giveaways.

*A redeco of the Street Speed Team seen at [[OTFCC 2003]]—one-off "color shifts" of the Japanese Street Speed Micron Overdrive Edition—was intended for mass release, but never saw the light of day.
*Redecos of the Adventure and Space Teams surfaced from China, but were likewise not released.
*At OTFCC 2003, it was announced that the more show-accurate Japanese version of Wheeljack and Wind Sheer would be released in the North American line as a running change. That never happened.
*Likewise, the red version of Powerlinx Thrust was supposed to hit North American shores as a running change, but never did... although it DID see release in Japan, Europe, and Israel(!).

==Post-''Armada'' releases==
Though it does not quite (yet) have the nostalgia-pull of older series, ''Armada'' has nonetheless had a number of toys released based on its characters, and even several all-new characters put into its universe since the Unicron Trilogy closed up shop. (Obviously, we're not counting toys from the direct-sequel series here.)

==Notes==
* According to [[Aaron Archer]] during his stint as ORSON, the Armada Autobots and Decepticons had intentionally different design aesthetics. The Autobots were designed to be symmetrical with clean lines and detailing, while the Decepticons had asymmetrical sculpts and details to invoke a more foreboding and battle-worn feel. A good example of this would be [[Hot Shot (Armada)/toys#ArDx1|Hot Shot]] versus [[Cyclonus (Armada)#Armada|Cyclonus]].
* The official Hasbro press releases for ''Armada'' used the pricepoint titles from the ''Beast Wars'' era - Deluxe, Mega and Ultra - instead of Super-Con, Max-Con and Giga-Con, the designations specifically created for the toyline. Confusingly, one press release<ref>http://groups.google.com/group/alt.toys.transformers/msg/b11879ad57a742ca?hl=en</ref> even referred to the "Mega Figure Assortment" as consisting of "MAXCON figures"...
* While early toys in Hasbro's ''Armada'' line used insignias without painted outlines (AKA "blob symbols"), starting with some shipments of Sideways and all later waves, the insignias received painted outlines like Takara's versions.<ref>{{citesocial|quote=Up until now, the insignias have been painted with no background detail. Starting with some shipments of Sideswipe and all figures in later waves, Hasbro's Armada insignias will be painted with background detail much like Takara's Micron Densetsu take of these molds.|link=https://news.tfw2005.com/2003/03/11/orsons-world-news-311-55|name=Tim Formas|site=TFW2005|year=2003|month=03|day=11}}</ref>
*There were two different types of "Unicron Battles" packaging: The first version was simply the original red and blue Armada packaging with an added "The Unicron Battles" logo sticker, whereas the second version sported a new color scheme in black, orange and blue that had the "Unicron Battles" logo as an integral part of its packaging design for the larger toys. Some toys were available in all three packaging variants.
* For the Japanese version of the line, Takara took the unusual step of picking and choosing [[package art]] from the Hasbro line, with just about all of [[Don Figueroa]] and [[Guido Guidi]]'s art being carried over, while the rest was replaced with new work. No explanation has ever been given, although most of the replaced art originally depicted the character incorrectly (Megatron's treads being mounted on his back instead of his shoulders) or just very inaccurately (Jetfire's everything).
* ''Armada'' continued a habit from the [[Beast Era]] and ''[[Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2001 franchise)| Robots in Disguise]]'' of reusing "G1" trademarks for characters who fit the ''vibe'' but were otherwise unrelated to those '80s characters. Hasbro designer [[Aaron Archer]] had been tasked with re-securing key trademarks and iconography that had been allowed to lapse, and so he'd usually pick several names for each toy in case his first choice didn't clear legal, but the names chosen were decidedly a secondary consideration to the toys themselves. For example, had the first choice of "[[Blurr (Armada)|Blurr]]" not been available, the second choice option was "[[Silverbolt (disambiguation)|Silverbolt]]", followed by "[[Groove (G1)|Groove]]".<ref>{{citesocial|quote=I like the use of the name. "Blurr" was a great name from back in the day. Again, this is an era where I'm not- I'm just trying to regain the assets of the brand, and not really caring at all about how it played with G1 or what came before, because that really wasn't something we had to worry about at all. That was not under our purview, to keep the heritage going, so to speak. That kind of came later. So I was just trying to use cool names, Blurr is obviously a great, simple get. I love names that sound like what they do or what they are.|link=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7rwGRYaeC8U&t=470s|name=Aaron Archer|site=''The Toy Armada''|title=Toy Armada Friday Night LIVE - Armada BLURR and more!|year=2023|month=03|day=17}}</ref><ref>{{citesocial|quote='Sleek Car.

Choice #2 was Silverbolt, choice #3 was Groove. I did not have a choice #4. Mini-Con names: Drag Strip, Crashor, Overdrive. Those were the options. Why we had so many options was, on this sheet, I went down the line, if something didn't get approved by legal, we dropped that one out, and moved the next one up. So because this went through, we never had to then search 'Silverbolt' to see if that would work.|link=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7rwGRYaeC8U&t=2260s|name=Aaron Archer|site=''The Toy Armada''|title=Toy Armada Friday Night LIVE - Armada BLURR and more!|year=2023|month=03|day=17}}</ref>

Transformers: Armada (toyline)

'''''Transformers: Armada''''' marked a fresh start for the [[Transformers brand]], a reinvention that introduced a whole new universe and backstory for the robots in disguise. The [[Franchises|franchise]] also introduced a new faction, the [[Mini-Con]]s, the line's most distinctive element, as ''every'' larger toy included one or more Mini-Con partners.

The line was a hit with kids; the simpler, cleaner transformations made the toys more accessible than prior lines, plus the wealth of action [[gimmick]]s gave every toy more to ''do''. The numerous Mini-Cons in particular proved popular with fans and children alike, and have continued on into many subsequent toylines. It did so well out of the gate that the line had to be expanded beyond its initial offerings pretty quickly, and began the next four-ish years of direct sequels, an era that would come to be known as the "[[Unicron Trilogy]]".

{{TOCclear}}

==Overview==
[[File:Arm-toy Demolishor.jpg|upright=1.66|thumb|right|Demolishor, packed to the gills with gimmicks.]]

The toyline marked a sharp change of design direction from the intricate, sometimes frustrating complexity found in the prior ''[[Beast Wars: Transformers (toyline)|Beast Wars]]'', ''[[Beast Machines: Transformers (toyline)|Beast Machines]]'', and [[Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2001 toyline)|''Robots in Disguise'']] lines (that last one being a particular point of contention with parents). The early offerings in particular are blocky, easy to transform, sturdy and colorful. [[Articulation]] tends to be reduced, sacrificed to keep price down in light of the need to add a Mini-Con partner and multiple intricate [[gimmick]]s to every mold. [[Ball joint]]s largely disappeared from the non-Mini-Con toys in favor of permanently-joined swivels. The aesthetics of larger robots hearken back more to the blocky concepts of [[The Transformers (toyline)|Generation 1]], while the Mini-Cons tend to be more experimental, with odd facial designs and non-standard limbs.

Each larger toy features a "central" gimmick which can only be activated by attaching —aka "[[Powerlinx]]ing"— a Mini-Con to the appropriate hardpoint; the socket on each Mini-Con has a central pin that presses a recessed button within the hardpoint. Though most transformation schemes are simple, many of the "Powerlinx"-activated gimmicks are quite complex and innovative, such as [[Hot Shot (Armada)/toys#Armada|Hot Shot]]'s "axelzooka", [[Scavenger (Armada)#Toys|Scavenger]]'s stompy-stompy action, and [[Megatron (Armada)/toys#Armada|Megatron]]'s turret-mounted twin-missile launcher. Electronic lights and sounds also became standard on nearly all toys larger than Deluxe/Super-Con. Most non-Mini-Con toys also have multiple hardpoints that didn't activate any gimmicks, but as many Mini-Cons have working missile launchers or third "weapon modes" or other combat-style gimmicks or can be oriented to ''resemble'' guns and blades and so on, these hardpoints allow robots to be kitted out with all kinds of gear, a play pattern that would be revived in later lines like the Takara version of ''[[Transformers: Prime (toyline)#Super Robot Lifeform Transformers Prime (Arms Micron)|Transformers: Prime]]'' with its [[Arms Micron]]s and the ''[[War for Cybertron Trilogy (toyline)|War for Cybertron Trilogy]]'' with the "[[C.O.M.B.A.T. System]]" and its successors.

As with ''Robots in Disguise'', the back end of the series featured same-character [[redeco]]es of toys in "powered up" modes, and this practice of heavy mold-re-use would continue on into the future to combat the ever-rising costs of production. The line was further bulked up by redecoes/[[retool]]s of several ''Beast Wars'' [[Transmetal]] toys, reworked to be Mini-Con compatible (despite a lack of any kind of action gimmicks), as early sales and subsequent retailer demand exceeded expectations, and they had to get ''something'' out relatively quick.

[[File:Theunicronbattles logo.jpg|thumb|upright=1.66|right]]

Towards the end, the line veered in an unexpected direction, with the introduction of the massive [[Unicron/toys#Armada|Unicron]], a ''huge'' toy based on the character from ''[[The Transformers: The Movie]]'', and arguably the greatest wish-fulfillment yet offered to fans from Hasbro, as no toy of this monstrosity had yet seen release. To promote this massive toy, the ongoing storylines of both cartoon and comic changed direction to feature the character as their central plot element, and the toyline itself gained a [[subline imprint]] promoting him in "'''The Unicron Battles'''". The initial wave of this [[subline imprint]] used the original red and blue ''Armada'' packaging with an added "The Unicron Battles" logo sticker, whereas the second version sported a new color scheme in orange, blue and black that had the "Unicron Battles" logo as an integral part of its packaging design for the larger toys. Some toys ended up being available in all three packaging variants.

''Armada'' saw a bit of a price jump (production costs again), as the $20 "Max-Con" size replaced the $15 Mega class of past lines, while the $25 "Giga-Cons" replaced the $20 Ultras. This was offset by the fact that ''Armada'' toys overall tended to be somewhat more bulky and massive than their predecessors, plus contained much more intricate internal mechanisms and electronic features as well.

==Development==
''Armada'' was driven by [[Brian Goldner]] wanting a collectible play toyline as seen in Japan and wanting to bring [[Takara]] in as co-developer. Takara, for their part, was extremely eager to come in as a co-developer on ''Transformers'' again to have some control on what the new toys would be and make sure they were commercial for the Japanese market as well. They brought in a horde of toy concept ideas that would shape the line, and a small team of Hasbro and Takara staffers were given leeway to develop the new idea.<ref>"Brian Goldner wanted to get back to basics, and he wanted a 'collectible' kind of concept. He was familiar with what was happening in Japan prior with various types of collectible play, small play, micro play, things that- years before anything like that came to the western markets. [...] So he understood the potential, and to that end I'll just say, he put a lot of trust in me to make this happen—tremendous amount of trust, when you think about what he was trying to do, because it was really a very small group of us and I was really the only designer that made this happen at the time. So his goal was to have the collectibility, that presented Takara the opportunity to pitch a lot of different ideas that they have had over the years, they were very much happy to- well, let me take a half step back. What Brian also wanted was to bring back was that co-development. [...] For a few years, they were kind of like a partner-vendor; we would come up with ideas and what they would want for the ''Beast Wars'' stuff, and Takara would kind of make that happen, even though it wasn't necessarily an item they were going to sell in their market. [...] So they were eager to get a better partnership, we were eager to get a better partnership, just to make better overall product: co-develop the animation, co-develop the products, co-develop all of it."—[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vNgWvNmMJfE&t=620s Aaron Archer on ''The Toy Armada'', 2021/12/14]</ref><ref>{{citesocial|quote=Hasbro did 60% of the character designs, all the colors, names and background info and many of the heads. Takara did the toy eng. some bios and rough design and models work.|name=Aaron Archer|site=TFW2005|year=circa 2002}}</ref>

One early idea from Takara was individual Mini-Cons would work at unlocking features on specific Autobots and Decepticons, rather than working for all of them. [[Aaron Archer]] argued that American kids would just jam any Mini-Con into the slot and get frustrated it wasn't working.<Ref>"Takara, if left to their original concepts—each Mini-Con would have been unique to unlock that car's feature. They were always very, 'particular key fits a particular lock', where I always had to defend the dumb American kids—is how I used to refer to it—that would just try to jam any key or any Mini-Con into the port and be upset that it wouldn't work."—[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vNgWvNmMJfE&t=1168s Aaron Archer on ''The Toy Armada'', 2021/12/14]</ref>

===Mini-Con 3-packs===
Mini-Cons were sold in carded three-packs at the Basic/Scout price point, each team defined by a particular gimmick or theme. Though only slightly larger than their closest precedent, the [[Micromaster]]s, they generally featured greatly improved articulation, complexity, and originality of design.

{{Note|The Tiny Tin Mini-Cons were only available in ''Armada'' packaging in Europe.

Meanwhile, the red version of Powerlinx Thrust was ''almost'' a European exclusive, since it was also available as a "[[USA Edition]]" in Japan (see below).}}

==Takara ''Legends of the Microns'' toyline==
[[TakaraTomy|Takara]]'s take on ''Armada'', hitting stores a bit later than the Hasbro version, has some small but significant differences, largely in the decos. With a closer tie to the [[Transformers: Armada (cartoon)|animation]], the toys had their colors tweaked to make them closer to their animation counterparts. This ranges from the small and subtle to completely different color schemes.

Takara also went ''nuts'' with the Mini-Cons. All but one of the three-pack teams got "[[Exdimensions]]" redecoes at normal retail, and some of the earlier molds got multiple redecoes as limited-edition store-[[exclusive]] promotional giveaways.

*A redeco of the Street Speed Team seen at [[OTFCC 2003]]—one-off "color shifts" of the Japanese Street Speed Micron Overdrive Edition—was intended for mass release, but never saw the light of day.
*Redecos of the Adventure and Space Teams surfaced from China, but were likewise not released.
*At OTFCC 2003, it was announced that the more show-accurate Japanese version of Wheeljack and Wind Sheer would be released in the North American line as a running change. That never happened.

==Post-''Armada'' releases==
Though it does not quite (yet) have the nostalgia-pull of older series, ''Armada'' has nonetheless had a number of toys released based on its characters, and even several all-new characters put into its universe since the Unicron Trilogy closed up shop. (Obviously, we're not counting toys from the direct-sequel series here.)

==Notes==
* According to [[Aaron Archer]] during his stint as ORSON, the Armada Autobots and Decepticons had intentionally different design aesthetics. The Autobots were designed to be symmetrical with clean lines and detailing, while the Decepticons had asymmetrical sculpts and details to invoke a more foreboding and battle-worn feel. A good example of this would be [[Hot Shot (Armada)/toys#ArDx1|Hot Shot]] versus [[Cyclonus (Armada)#Armada|Cyclonus]].
* The official Hasbro press releases for ''Armada'' used the pricepoint titles from the ''Beast Wars'' era - Deluxe, Mega and Ultra - instead of Super-Con, Max-Con and Giga-Con, the designations specifically created for the toyline. Confusingly, one press release<ref>http://groups.google.com/group/alt.toys.transformers/msg/b11879ad57a742ca?hl=en</ref> even referred to the "Mega Figure Assortment" as consisting of "MAXCON figures"...
* While early toys in Hasbro's ''Armada'' line used insignias without painted outlines (AKA "blob symbols"), starting with some shipments of Sideways and all later waves, the insignias received painted outlines like Takara's versions.<ref>{{citesocial|quote=Up until now, the insignias have been painted with no background detail. Starting with some shipments of Sideswipe and all figures in later waves, Hasbro's Armada insignias will be painted with background detail much like Takara's Micron Densetsu take of these molds.|link=https://news.tfw2005.com/2003/03/11/orsons-world-news-311-55|name=Tim Formas|site=TFW2005|year=2003|month=03|day=11}}</ref>
*There were two different types of "Unicron Battles" packaging: The first version was simply the original red and blue Armada packaging with an added "The Unicron Battles" logo sticker, whereas the second version sported a new color scheme in black, orange and blue that had the "Unicron Battles" logo as an integral part of its packaging design for the larger toys. Some toys were available in all three packaging variants.
* For the Japanese version of the line, Takara took the unusual step of picking and choosing [[package art]] from the Hasbro line, with just about all of [[Don Figueroa]] and [[Guido Guidi]]'s art being carried over, while the rest was replaced with new work. No explanation has ever been given, although most of the replaced art originally depicted the character incorrectly (Megatron's treads being mounted on his back instead of his shoulders) or just very inaccurately (Jetfire's everything).
* ''Armada'' continued a habit from the [[Beast Era]] and ''[[Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2001 franchise)| Robots in Disguise]]'' of reusing "G1" trademarks for characters who fit the ''vibe'' but were otherwise unrelated to those '80s characters. Hasbro designer [[Aaron Archer]] had been tasked with re-securing key trademarks and iconography that had been allowed to lapse, and so he'd usually pick several names for each toy in case his first choice didn't clear legal, but the names chosen were decidedly a secondary consideration to the toys themselves. For example, had the first choice of "[[Blurr (Armada)|Blurr]]" not been available, the second choice option was "[[Silverbolt (disambiguation)|Silverbolt]]", followed by "[[Groove (G1)|Groove]]".<ref>{{citesocial|quote=I like the use of the name. "Blurr" was a great name from back in the day. Again, this is an era where I'm not- I'm just trying to regain the assets of the brand, and not really caring at all about how it played with G1 or what came before, because that really wasn't something we had to worry about at all. That was not under our purview, to keep the heritage going, so to speak. That kind of came later. So I was just trying to use cool names, Blurr is obviously a great, simple get. I love names that sound like what they do or what they are.|link=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7rwGRYaeC8U&t=470s|name=Aaron Archer|site=''The Toy Armada''|title=Toy Armada Friday Night LIVE - Armada BLURR and more!|year=2023|month=03|day=17}}</ref><ref>{{citesocial|quote='Sleek Car. Type: rocket on wheels, Ferrari-type.' This is the notes from our working rollout. 'Triple change, flight mode, hand-held weapon. Mini-Con partner race dragster. Main character role. Interceptor. October '02.' So that's how we thought of that character. Alright, names, Sleek Car... first choice was... was what it was, I guess, so I guess we went with the first choice we had. Choice #2 was Silverbolt, choice #3 was Groove. I did not have a choice #4. Mini-Con names: Drag Strip, Crashor, Overdrive. Those were the options. Why we had so many options was, on this sheet, I went down the line, if something didn't get approved by legal, we dropped that one out, and moved the next one up. So because this went through, we never had to then search 'Silverbolt' to see if that would work.|link=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7rwGRYaeC8U&t=2260s|name=Aaron Archer|site=''The Toy Armada''|title=Toy Armada Friday Night LIVE - Armada BLURR and more!|year=2023|month=03|day=17}}</ref>

Optimus Minor

2023-05-02T18:53:27Z

ScreamerFan: /* Beast Wars */

{{disambig3|Optimus}}
{{factions|maximal}}
:''Optimus Minor is a [[Maximal]] from the [[Beast Wars: Transformers (franchise)|Beast Wars]] portion of the [[Generation 1 continuity family|Generation 1]] [[continuity family]].''

[[File:Optimusminor-packageart.jpg|upright=1.4|thumb|Monkey, check. Kung-fu, check. Well, Monty Fiske should be interested by now...]]
'''Optimus Minor''' is an upbeat and lively warrior. He has a tendency to make jokes even when the situation is rather grim and not to always think things through in advance, but he's always up for a mission, even when the odds of success (or even survival) are low. Sounds like fun.

In [[Transformers Legends (comic)|one universe]], Minor is the [[Relatives|son]] of [[Optimus Primal (BW)|Optimus Primal]]. Don't ask how that works.
{{TOCclear}}

==Fiction==
===Toy bio===
A result of [[Megatron (BW)|Megatron]]'s cloning experiments, Optimus Minor possessed many traits commonly attributed to monkeys: agility, speed, intelligence, and a superior ability to climb stuff. His animal instincts served him well in battle, where he was a savage fighter. However, like many Transmetals 2, he had rage issues and trouble controlling the resulting violent urges. {{storylink|Optimus Minor#Toys|Optimus Minor bio}}

===Dreamwave ''Generation One'' continuity===
[[File:Wolfang optimus minor bonecrusher aint no rat.jpg|thumb|upright=1.3]]
On their way back to [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]] after the conclusion of the [[Beast Wars (event)|Beast Wars]], [[Rattrap (BW)|Rattrap]] had a dream from his time back on Earth:

Optimus Minor, [[Bonecrusher (BW)|Bonecrusher]], and [[Wolfang (Maximal)|Wolfang]] rescued Rattrap from [[Dinobot II]]. Minor said that they couldn't return with Rattrap. Although they were "once" Maximals, they had gained a purpose which did not include fighting. {{storylink|Ain't No Rat}}
{{BW Shell Game}}
Optimus Minor, Wolfang and Bonecrusher appeared to Rattrap in a vision while he and the rest of Optimus Primal's crew were leaving the planet at the end of the Beast Wars. The three of them guilted the rodent for abandoning them, but for some reason, Rattrap was unable to recall his previous encounter with the trio. Optimus Minor and the other two Maximals pleaded with Rattrap to return to Earth. {{storylink|Shell Game issue 1|Shell Game #1}}
{{--}}

===2006 IDW ''Beast Wars'' continuity===
[[File:Gathering2-Optimus Minor.jpg|upright=1.1|thumb|left|I'm having flashbacks to Marsupilami...]]
[[Razorbeast]] was ordered by [[Magmatron]] to wake the remaining Axalon stasis pods on prehistoric Earth as [[Predacon (BW)|Predacons]]. Thankfully for Optimus Minor, Razorbeast was working undercover and inserted a viral code into the protoform-awakening process. This virus caused many of the protoforms to retain their Maximal status. This included Optimus Minor, who was among the first to join up with Razorbeast. {{storylink|The Gathering issue 2|The Gathering #2}} Razorbeast and Minor were responsible for fouling Magmatron's attempt to send [[Megatron (BW)/Beast Wars cartoon continuity|Megatron]] back to the [[Tripredacus Council]]. The Maximals thwarted Magmatron's plans to conquer Cybertron, but they were stranded on ancient Earth as a result. {{storylink|The Gathering issue 4|The Gathering #4}}

[[File:DeadRazorbeast.jpg|upright=1.4|thumb|Cuz' that's what friends are foooorrrr!]]
Optimus Minor fought alongside his fellow Earthbound Maximals against [[Ravage (G1)|Ravage]]'s Predacons and later the [[Blentron|Blendtrons]]. {{storylink|The Ascending issue 1|The Ascending #1}} {{storylink|The Ascending issue 2|The Ascending #2}} {{storylink|The Ascending issue 3|The Ascending #3}}

When Razorbeast was infected by [[Latolata|Rartorata]] with [[Angolmois Energy|Angolmois]], Minor stuck with him, encouraging his friend to fight the madness-inducing effects of the poisoning. But in the end, Optimus Minor was forced to shoot Razorbeast in the head to prevent him from turning the Angolmois-rage on other Maximals. Minor was deeply distraught at this turn of events, and was consoled by [[B'Boom]]. {{storylink|The Ascending issue 4|The Ascending #4}}
{{-}}

===Legends World===
The young son of [[Optimus Primal (BW)|Optimus Primal]], '''Minor''' (マイナー ''Mainā'') came with him to look at toys during 2014's [[Tokyo Toy Show]] and was surprised when they ran into his dad's adult co-workers. {{storylink|Tokyo Toy Show 2014 Report#Part 1|Tokyo Toy Show 2014 Report Part 1}} He was overjoyed to see ''[[Transformers Animated (franchise)|Animated]]'' [[Optimus Prime (Animated)|Optimus Prime]] and [[Bumblebee (Animated)|Bumblebee]] at the convention, having loved [[Transformers Animated (cartoon)|the cartoon]], and had fun playing a soccer game with the actor portraying Prime. Scoring a goal netted Minor a [[Optimus Prime (Movie)/toys#Leader Class toys 5|movie Optimus Prime toy]] which his dad helped him transform. {{storylink|Tokyo Toy Show 2014 Report#Part 2|Tokyo Toy Show 2014 Report Part 2}}

When Optimus Primal was turned into a real Transformer, he was afraid Minor would be scared, when instead his son thought he was really cool and was happy to have a Transformer for a dad. {{storylink|Legends Comic: Bonus Edition Vol. 2|Bonus Edition Vol. 2}} During [[Christmas]], Minor and Primal went on a walk and saw an advertisement for ''[[Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2015 franchise)|Transformers Adventure]]''. {{storylink|Merry X'mas!!}} Together with his friends [[Lio Junior]] and [[Wedge (RID)|Build Boy]], Minor was really excited when he met [[Optimus Prime (Movie)|''Age of Extinction'' Optimus Prime]] and started playing with him, unaware that "Prime" was actually [[Sky-Byte (RID)|Gelshark]] in disguise. The three kids' innocence and joy was enough to convince Gelshark to give up his evil ways. {{storylink|Legends Comic: Bonus Edition Vol. 6|Bonus Edition Vol. 6}} Minor was going to attend a ''Transformers'' show at Tokyo Toy Show 2015 when he was kidnapped by [[Scourge (RID)|Black Convoy]], angering Gelshark who was meant to act in the show, and the shark convinced Black Convoy to let the kid go by challenging him to a (failed) duel. Minor and his friends then pleaded with Gelshark not to return to his home universe with Black Convoy, but in the end had to say goodbye to him. {{storylink|Legends Comic: Bonus Edition Vol. EX (Scourge)|Bonus Edition Vol. EX}}

While visiting Lio Junior, Minor and Build Boy were impressed by his new home, made out of [[Lio Convoy]]'s starship mode. {{storylink|Legends Comic: Bonus Edition Vol. 41|Bonus Edition Vol. 41}}

===''Beast Wars: Uprising''===
Optimus Minor was the designated team leader of a Maximal team participating in the 1924th [[Games (competition)|Games]]. He attempted to give an inspirational speech, but was drowned out by the cheering and heckling of the audience. Nevertheless, the match was interrupted by [[Lio Convoy]]'s assassination of [[Supersonic]] and call for an uprising against the [[Builder of Cybertron|Builders]]. {{storylink|Broken Windshields}} Optimus fled the match along with the rest of his team. {{storylink|Head Games}}

*'''Optimus Minor''' (Basic Class, [[1999]])
**''Accessories'': Tail/whip
{{toydesigner|[[Aaron Archer]] (Hasbro)}}

:''[[Beast Wars: Transformers (toyline)|Beast Wars]]'' Optimus Minor transforms into a black, red, and gold-chromed [[Transmetal 2]] monkey by changing his legs into arms, and his arms become legs. In [[robot mode]] his tail becomes a whip, grabbed by a pin in his right arm. Along with fellow Transmetals 2 [[Scarem#Toys|Scarem]], [[Sonar (BW)#Toys|Sonar]], and [[Tigerhawk#Toys|Tigerhawk]], Optimus Minor has an odd feature with allows him to have extra limbs; his robot mode arms (his legs in [[beast mode]]) can split down the middle to the elbows. This feature is particularly noteworthy in Optimus Minor, as it is not due to his transformation process, unlike the others, showing that it was more than an afterthought. Oddly enough, he has never been portrayed utilizing this ability (not even on his package art, like the other two were.) His spark crystal is located in the side of his midsection. Minor is one of the most posable toys in ''Transformers'' history, being able to sit cross-legged in monkey mode.

:In Japan, this toy was first available as a promotional item, then as an "import" exclusive to [[Toys"R"Us]].

*'''Optimus Minor''' (Basic Class, <s>[[1999]]</s>)
**''Accessories'': Tail/whip

:In [[2002]], a carded specimen of a blue-instead-of-black Optimus Minor appeared among many ''Transformers'' prototypes that Whiz Bang! Toys auctioned on [[eBay]]. Although these colors more closely match his card art, it was probably intended as a "[[Variant|running change]]" (à la [[Dinobot II#Toys|blue Dinobot II]] and [[Prowl (TM2)#Toys|black Prowl II]]), given that the "Transmetals 2" logo on the bubble is the non-Roman numeral version. This blue Optimus Minor would probably have been released alongside the green-and-tan [[Ramulus#Toys|Ramulus]], whose samples have been found at a similar stage of completion.

[[File:CheetorBWtoys.jpg|right|thumb|upright=1.67|A sea of yellow and spots.]]

Being the yellow [[kid-appeal character]] of the [[Beast Era]], '''[[Cheetor (BW)|Cheetor]]''' gets a lot of toys!

==Toys==
===''Beast Wars''===
{{anchor|Dx1}}
[[File:BW-toy CheetorV1.jpg|upright=1.67|thumb|Ol' Blue-Eyes is... rare.]]
[[File:BWtoy-Cheetorgreeneyes.jpg|right|upright=1.67|thumb|From robot... to brick.]]
*'''Cheetor''' (Deluxe, 1996/1997)
**''Takara ID number:'' '''C-3'''
**''Accessories:'' Tail-gun, "[[Quasar rifle|quasar canon]]" water-squirting gun
{{toydesigner|[[Takio Ejima]] (TakaraTomy)}}

: Part of the first wave of ''[[Beast Wars: Transformers (toyline)|Beast Wars]]'' Deluxe toys (sort of, see below), Cheetor transforms into an organic, big cat-like creature somewhat resembling a [[Popular beast alternate modes|cheetah]]. As such, he is yellow and covered in spots. In [[robot mode]], he is armed with a rifle made out of his hindquarters and tail, along with a second [[water-squirting gimmick|water-squirting]] "quasar canon" formed out of his stomach. As with most early ''Beast Wars'' toys, he features a "[[mutant head]]" that replaces his face, although because the entire head is mounted on a cabinet-style vertical swivel, it is difficult to keep the mutant head set in position.

: There are several minor but noteworthy variations of this toy. The initial wave-1 "rocky bubble" release features blue cheetah eyes and was incredibly hard to find due to delayed shipping; he only shipped in later, short-run "revision" cases of wave 1. The "smooth bubble" release later in the year gave him red cheetah eyes. He was released again in 1997 (what with being a popular show character) in ''Beast Wars''{{'}} second year, this time with bright green cheetah eyes, and the gold robot eyes of the previous two versions were changed to green.

:[[TakaraTomy|Takara]] released two different Cheetor toys; one that was the same as Hasbro's red-eyed version, and a [[Variant|running change]] [[:File:BW toy - Running change Cheetor.jpg|version]] in January 1998 that not only has various color tweaks to make him slightly more show-colored (including dark green cheetah eyes, a gold head crest instead of blue, and red robot eyes), but also has a slight [[Retool|mold tweak]] to keep the beast head pointed forward in robot mode, based on [[Hasbro]]'s initial release of [[Tigatron]], which has been retained on all versions thereafter.

: This mold was later [[redeco]]ed for a "[[#DxFK|Fox Kids]]" version, as well as [[#Beast Wars 10th Anniversary|both the Hasbro and Takara 10th anniversary versions]] of the character.

: This mold was also used to make [[Shadow Panther#Toys|Shadow Panther]]/[[Ravage (G1)/toys#Beast Wars|Tripredacus Agent]] and [[Tigatron#Toys|Tigatron]]. It was slated to be used for ''[[Transformers: Universe (2003 toyline)|Universe]]'' [[Nightprowler#Toys|Nightprowler]], but that toy set was canceled.

*'''Quickest Showdown: Cheetus VS Waspeeter''' (VS pack, July 1997)
**''ID number:'' '''VS-3'''
**''Accessories:'' "Laser Shot" tail-gun,"Laser Shot" water-squirting gun

: In Japan, Cheetor was available both separately and in a "Quickest Showdown" (最速の対決 ''saisoku no taiketsu'') VS pack with [[Waspinator (BW)/toys#VS3|Waspinator]]. Both toys are identical to their original releases.

:Currently, it is unknown if the latter "show-like" version of the two toys were ever released in the VS set.

{{-}}{{anchor|Gold}}
*'''Gold Cheetus''' (1997)
**''Accessories:'' "Laser Shot" tail-gun,"Laser Shot" water-squirting gun

: A one-of-a-kind, all-gold version of Cheetor was awarded in Japan for a ''[[TV Magazine]]'' contest. Presumably, his softer joint-plastic and water bladder were unchromed gold, while everything else was blindingly gold-chromed.

{{-}}{{anchor|TM1}}

*'''Cheetor''' (Transmetal Deluxe, 1998)
**''Takara ID number:'' '''C-42'''
**''Accessories:'' Tail-whip

: As with most first-wave [[Transmetal]]s toys, Cheetor's [[beast mode]] is entirely robotic, but his robot mode has organic elements in its design. In beast mode, two rocket boosters can be flipped out (and extended, which the cartoon failed to show) of the sides of the cat torso to create a "flight mode", plus his tail rotates 180 to provide a "stabilizer" fin. In robot mode, his removable tail becomes a spiked whip, but he has no ranged weaponry, though you can put his two-fingered hands together to simulate the "gun" he used on the show. He also features an energon chip applied to the inside of the left wing. The toy suffers from a design flaw where the breast plate's hinges that holds both arms up in beast mode suffers from a lot of stress, and, over time, can't hold up the cheetah head properly anymore.

: The Takara ''[[Super Lifeform Transformers: Beast Wars Metals (franchise)|Beast Wars Metals]]'' release of the Transmetal Cheetor toy features a number of small but notable changes from the Hasbro version. The most immediately noticeable is that the "CHEETOR" [[tampograph]] on his beast mode was changed to "CYBERTRON" and the Maximal [[insignia|faction symbol]]. The other changes make Takara's version closer to Cheetor's show appearance than the Hasbro version: green robot mode eyes (Hasbro's version has light blue), painted cheetah teeth (Hasbro's are unpainted), and the gray plastic is more blue-hued than the Hasbro version's semi-French-gray.

: This mold was used as the basis for the non-toy character [[Cataclysm (BW)|Cataclysm]].

: Once again Cheetor was packaged in a "Gale Showdown" (疾風の対決 ''Hayate no Taiketsu'') VS pack with [[Waspinator (BW)/toys#VS42|Waspinator]], this time in their "Metals" forms. Again, both toys are identical to the individual releases.

*'''Cheetor''' (Transmetal 2 Deluxe, 1999)
**''Takara ID number:'' '''C-49'''
**''Accessories:'' "High-powered missile launcher/leap-thruster", missile, tail-whip

: [[Transmetal 2]] Cheetor is the first major departure from the usual Cheetor styling, but maintains the standard "stand up cat"-style transformation, for which the robot mode is essentially the beast mode standing on its hind legs. Transmetal 2 Cheetor transforms into a saber-toothed tiger-type big cat with a large rocket engine grafted into his back. In robot mode, this rocket engine becomes a spring-loaded missile launcher.

: In order to give your Cheetor toy a little more [[show-accuracy]], Cheetor's upper arms need to be popped off and swapped around. The forearms are already in the correct configuration.

: As with all Transmetal 2 toys, he features a [[spark]] crystal, a small, clear-colored ball with a vacuum-metalized faction logo inside. Cheetor's spark is placed on his left hind leg.

:"Metals Cheetus 2" in [[TakaraTomy|Takara]]'s ''[[Transformers: Beast Wars (Japanese toyline)#1999 (Beast Wars Metals)|Beast Wars Metals]]'' line is identical to the Hasbro release. A "presale" version sold in conjunction with [[1999 Summer Toei Anime Fair]] has one difference—the dark gray present on most of the body was changed to a bright silver.

: This mold was later redecoed into [[Ravage (G1)/toys#TM2|Tripredacus Agent]]. (Notice the pattern yet?)

*'''Cheetor''' (Fox Kids Deluxe, 1999)

: In 1999, a redeco of the [[#Toys|original Cheetor toy]] was released, with "[[Fox Kids]]" branding on the packaging to advertise the show's move from syndication to a network. Aside from changing the black spots on his fur to a strange maroon color, at first glance, FK Cheetor seems identical to his original counterpart. However, a closer look shows that both the blue and the gold robot parts were all replaced with a metallic blue trim.

: Product listings gave this toy the name "Jungle Roar Cheetor",<ref>https://groups.google.com/d/msg/alt.toys.transformers/C30fV9dqOK0/gPO8D3N_PAUJ</ref> but that name never made it to packaging.

**''Accessories:'' Tail-whip

: Shortly afterward the prior toy's release, [[#TM1|Transmetal Cheetor]] received a "Fox Kids" redeco, released along with a redeco of [[Tarantulas (BW)/toys#FKTM|Transmetal Tarantulas]]. This red-and-dark-green version of Cheetor proved to be hard to come by, as this assortment did not ship for very long at all.

*'''Cheetor''' (Mega, 2000/2004)
**''Takara ID number:'' '''BR-02'''
**''Takara release date:'' '''[[2004]]-[[November 18|11-18]]'''
**''Accessories:'' Tail-whip

: Part of the first assortment of ''[[Beast Machines: Transformers (toyline)|Beast Machines]]'' Megas, Cheetor transforms into a super-lean [[technorganic]] cheetah. In keeping with the early ''Beast Machines'' design trend of "articulated features", turning the beast mode head causes its jaw to open and close. His left foreleg has a gear-spring horizontal "swiping" action activated by pushing a section of the above shoulder-armor towards his body.

: In robot mode, his head has the same feature; turning it left or right opens and closes his Muppet-like jaw. The "swiping"-action arm—now on his right side—is still available in this mode and can be used to swing his tail-whip around. Because of Cheetor's unusual body proportions and very small feet, he has issues standing up properly in this mode, especially with his legs positioned in the proper cat-like digitigrade style.

: In 2005, the Mega Cheetor toy was re-released as "Cheetus" as part of the Japanese Toys"R"Us [[exclusive]] ''[[Beast Machines: Transformers (toyline)|Beast Wars Returns]]'' line. It does not appear that any significant changes were made to it. Reportedly, this item had a run of only 4000 pieces.

: This tiny, softer-plastic representation of Cheetor is great for the yung'uns. As one of nine toys in the [[McDonald's]] ''Beast Machines'' Happy Meal promotion, it features an incredibly simplistic transformation with no removable parts. Why does he have that sideways articulation at the knees? Why are the fins on the back of his legs oversized, making his cheetah mode look even more ridiculous than it has to? These are the questions that burn in our nightmares.

*'''Cheetor''' (Supreme, 2000)
**''Accessories:'' Tail-sword, 2 missiles
{{toydesigner|[[Tim Bradley]] (concept artist)}}

: One of the largest ''Transformers'' toys, nearly as tall as [[Fortress Maximus (G1)|Fortress Maximus]] in robot mode, Supreme Cheetor was heavily hyped as an "ultimate" toy. Aside from having the most [[Show-accuracy|show-accurate]] sculpting of any ''Beast Machines'' Cheetor toy, he features electronic lights and sounds in both modes, articulated jaws on both his beast and robot mode heads, and raising "hackles" on his beast mode back. Each arm contains a [[gimmick]] as well. His left arm has a geared up-and-down "slashing" movement, with extending fingers (yes, fingers) that can spring out of his hand. His right arm contains a spring-loaded twin missile launcher that fires two missiles out of his palm when the arm is pulled back at the elbow. Disappointingly for such a large and well hyped figure, these gimmicks sharply limit his arm articulation. Even with his wide and rubber-padded feet, like [[#BMMega|Mega Cheetor]] he has balance issues in robot mode thanks to his top-heavy construction and oddly jointed legs. His teeth-clenched grin in robot mode is also somewhat off-putting.

: This toy was an ultimately inauspicious start for the Supreme price point. It [[Shelfwarmer|shelfwarmed]] pretty badly and ended up in blowout sales at online retailers discounted more than 75% off its original price tag.

*'''Night Slash Cheetor''' (Deluxe, 2001)

: Part of the first wave of the [[Subline imprint|rebranded]] "Battle for the Spark" ''Beast Machines'' Deluxes, "Night Slash" Cheetor is a much more angular and mechanical-looking version of the character, with a more show-like face sculpt. Each bicep holds a spring-loaded sword attached by a brace that flips into his waiting hands when released. He has a Spark Crystal mounted on his upper back between his shoulders, and just behind that, a pair of thrusters on his back as well. His interior chest has a red and silver column that spins within a reflective silver dish when his Spark Crystal is pressed, meant to show the power of his Spark. However, this does not work terribly well given the opacity of the transparent plastic that normally covers it.

: This mold was used to make [[CatSCAN#Expanded Universe|CatSCAN]].

:A new (seemingly Deluxe scale) version of Cheetor was designed for ''[[Transtech]]'', the proposed follow-up to ''Beast Machines'', which would have turned into a Cybertronic F-1 race car with a cheetah motif. It made it at least as far as a resin hardcopy, seemingly with near-final engineering. Aside from featuring a launching, spring-loaded front bumper, it is uncertain what gimmicks it may have had. The toy was ultimately scrapped alongside the rest of the ''Transtech'' line.

He was cast in a different shade of yellow, and unlike most of the other toys in the line, he was actually ''further'' off model than his original toy, the biggest difference being that the newer toy lacks the gold paint on its forearms and feet found on the show model. His right beast mode shoulder was [[tampograph]]ed with a Maximal sigil. He came packed with build-a-figure [[Transmutate (BW)|Transmutate]]'s torso and a DVD disc containing the episode "[[Equal Measures]]".

*'''Cheetor''' (Cybertron Heroes, 2007)
**''Accessories:'' 2 scimitars, display stand
{{toydesigner|[[Don Figueroa]] (concept artist)}}

: Part of the sixth wave of ''[[Titanium Series]]'' Cybertron Heroes, Cheetor is based heavily on the design of Cheetor seen in the ''Beast Machines'' cartoon, albeit with some differences, notably much thicker limbs, making him far more stable in robot mode. His twin scimitars can peg onto his hips for storage and are made of softer, rubbery plastic. His [[die-cast]] metal is limited to his shoulders, torso, and thighs.

: Care must be taken when transforming Cheetor into beast mode. His robot head ''must'' be pushed back into his beast mode's neck until it ''clicks''. Failure to do so will cause his robot mode head to get stuck inside the chest after the cheetah mode's neck is pushed into it, and may require disassembling the torso to get it out again.

: This figure is the first transforming toy commemorating the ''Beast Machines'' story, designs, and faction symbols. According to ''Titanium Series'' concept designer [[Don Figueroa]], making ''Titanium'' Cheetor use the BM body was his idea. It seems he was told simply to make "Cheetor", but his [[Hasbro]] supervisors never specified ''which'' Cheetor to make. [[Aaron Archer]] corroborated this, saying Hasbro had not meant to produce a Beast Machines figure: they had simply put Cheetor's name on a list, and the toy ended up being, as Archer put it, "the wrong one".

:Like most ''Titanium Series'' Cybertron Heroes, Cheetor includes a display stand.

: First available in the fourth wave of ''[[Transformers: Universe (2008 franchise)|Universe]]'' Deluxes, this version of Cheetor is based on the original ''Beast Wars'' Cheetor, transforming into an organic cheetah that's much closer in proportions to the real animal than any previous attempt, with a robot face sculpt based much more on the CGI show model. Alas, the compromise is that he has a far ''less'' [[Show-accuracy|show-accurate]] robot mode due to a markedly different transformation scheme that involves his entire beast-chest ending up as a huge hunchback in robot mode. When a lever is pulled on his beast mode back, the cheetah head's jaw opens and the cheetah's eyes change colors from green to red, a bizarre [[homage]] to not just the differing eye-colors the [[#Beast_Wars|original Cheetor toy]] went through in its many releases but also to how his cartoon model's cheetah head had green eyes in beast mode but red eyes in robot mode. His tail becomes a whip-weapon, plus he comes with a pair of triple-bladed throwing stars that store in compartments on his legs.

:As part of the third wave of [[blindpacking|blindpacked]] ''[[Kre-O]]'' [[Micro-Changer]]s, Cheetor is a [[Kreon]] that can be rebuilt into a [[beast mode]] very very vaguely representing a cheetah.

His handgun originally comes from [[Bumblebee (Kre-O)|Bumblebee]] while his sword used to be [[Bludgeon (G1)#Kre-O|Bludgeon]]'s.

{{toydesigner|[[Yuki Ohshima]] (concept artist)}}

:''[[The Transformers: Masterpiece|Masterpiece]]'' Cheetus transforms from a show-accurate cheetah to a show-accurate robot, albeit taking a few shortcuts (such as using a faux cheetah head for the robot mode torso). He comes with two different guns: his traditional "gut gun" and his secondary "rump gun" which saw sporadic use in early ''Beast Wars'' episodes. Additionally, he sports three different robot faces (serious, angry and smiling), three different cheetah heads (neutral, angry and shocked) and three different pairs of cheetah eyes (looking straight, looking left and looking right). Both weapons can stow on his backside. His hands are completely removable at the wrist, which makes it much easier for you to put his "rump gun" in his hand.

:He takes show-accuracy to a dedicated extreme, including having fuzzy, dotted spots on his cheetah parts to mimic the stretched textures of the [[Beast Wars: Transformers (cartoon)|cartoon]] CGI model. This is also the first beast-mode Transformers toy to implement realistic whiskers, though the nature of the figure's transformation scheme means that these whiskers are prone to deforming. Unfortunately, the figure is known to suffer from paint chipping.

{{toydesigner|[[John Warden]] and [[Mark Maher]] (Hasbro), [[Shogo Hasui]] (TakaraTomy)|[[Dennis Chan]] (sculptor), [[Ken Christiansen]] (concept artist)}}

: Released to commemorate the 25th anniversary of ''[[Beast Wars: Transformers (franchise)|Beast Wars]]'', ''[[War for Cybertron: Kingdom]]'' Cheetor transforms from a robot accurate to his appearance in the first season of the ''[[Beast Wars: Transformers (cartoon)|Beast Wars]]'' cartoon into a realistic (if extremely bright yellow) cheetah. Unlike the ''Masterpiece'' figure, he has molded fur texture rather than full-body printing. Cheetor's tail can detach to become a whip, similar to his Transmetal toy. His beast mode legs can unfurl to form longer legs in robot mode, giving him a look reminiscent of his Beast Machines appearance; whether this was intentional or not is unclear. In cheetah mode, his jaw can open and close to adorably change his expression.

: A major design flaw is found within the cheetah’s neck. The plastic used there is ''extremely'' thin - you can actually see the paint on the other side - and it is commonplace for specimens to develop visible cracks around the pins at the base of the neck as soon as they are transformed. In addition, the small plastic tab meant to secure the head/neck of the cheetah into the back is prone to breakage. Hasbro issued a running change to address the latter problem, making the tab smaller and sturdier.

: Cheetor comes with a [[Golden Disk (Voyager)|Golden Disk]] card that "[[Source:Golden Disk destinies|reveals a possible destiny of a key character]]", with each character having three possible destiny variants.

: This figure was retooled into [[Shadow Panther#War for Cybertron: Kingdom|Shadow Panther]], and then redecoed into ''[[Transformers: Legacy (toyline)|Legacy]]'' [[Nightprowler#Legacy|Nightprowler]]. The mold's robot and beast mode legs were also reused on the Hasbro PulseCon-exclusive ''War for Cybertron Trilogy'' "[[Ravage (G1)/toys#PulseCon|Covert Agent Ravage]]".

:Promoting the ''Kingdom'' season of the [[Transformers: War for Cybertron Trilogy (cartoon)|''War for Cybertron Trilogy'' cartoon]], Cheetor is a redeco of his ''Kingdom'' toy, closer resembling his ''Beast Wars'' animation model. As such, his yellow parts are more of an orange-gold shade, and his blue parts/paint are a darker and metallic blue. For closer accuracy to his ''Beast Wars'' animal mode, his cheetah eyes are now green and he lacks the blue paint on his legs, at the cost of having unpainted, yellow shins in robot mode. For unknown reasons, his whip lacks all blue paint and his crotch-plate is only partially blue. Much like his [[Optimus Primal (BW)/toys#War for Cybertron Trilogy|Maximal]] [[Rattrap (BW)/toys#War for Cybertron Trilogy|compadres]] in the wave, Cheetor features no toyline-staple battle damage.

Cheetor features all the same accessories and functionality as the original toy but differs slightly in deco: most noticeably, the cheetah eyes are green while the robot eyes are orange, which is a combination not present on earlier releases. The shoulder joints have also been mildly reinforced from previous releases.

:Bizarrely, the second set of Hasbro stock photography, which is the one used on the cross-sell, is of the ''[[#Beast Wars 10th Anniversary|Beast Wars 10th Anniversary]]'' toy instead.

:Much like ''[[Vintage|Vintage G1]]'', Cheetor is packaged in a "rock bubble" blister card styled after the original ''Beast Wars'' toy packaging, [[package art]] and all. Also similar to ''Vintage G1'', the time disparity since the original release has the toy reasonably set at double the price of the toy's 1996 release, $20 versus $10. This version of Cheetor was exclusive to [[Walmart]] in the United States and Canada, but sales ended up being so poor that unsold stock was eventually sold on clearance as low as its original $10 price.

*'''Cheetor''' (<s>2006/2007</s> unreleased)

:This was to be a 7-or-8-inch tall resin bust of Cheetor released as part of a ''Beast Wars'' tenth anniversary series by model company [[First 4 Figures]]. Cheetor would have been sculpted to be accurate to his ''Beast Wars'' cartoon design, and would likely have been depicted from the waist and upwards on a base or pedestal. Unlike most of the other mini busts in this range, Cheetor's sculpt has never been shown publicly, with the figure's existence only being known due to First 4 Figures allowing [[BigBadToyStore]] to solicit him for sale.<ref name=bbtsseibs>[https://www.seibertron.com/transformers/news/update-from-bigbadtoystorecom-transformers-and-gij/6539/ "Update from BigBadToyStore.com: Transformers and G.I.Joe Statues and Busts!!!"] on Seibertron.com</ref><ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20070407160752/http://www.bigbadtoystore.com/bbts/menu.aspx?menu=526&category=2037 BigBadToyStore's listings for First 4 Figures' busts] (archived)</ref>

:Mini busts in the planned ''Beast Wars'' line were designed to reflect the scale of the characters as seen in the cartoon, and each was set to be limited to 1,996 pieces, in a nod to the franchise's year of origin.<ref name=ASM>[https://web.archive.org/web/20070806062058/http://toyfair06.asmzine.com/first4figures/report.html "First4Figures Limited Transformers Statues and Busts Info!"] at ASMzine.com (archived)</ref> Unfortunately, Cheetor and the rest of the ''Beast Wars'' bust line were cancelled, with First 4 Figures citing a challenging marketplace and lack of retailer interest.

* '''Cheetor & Blackarachnia''' (Two-pack, 2008)
{{toydesigner|[[Bill Rawley]] (Hasbro)|[[Marcelo Matere]] (concept artist)}}

: Part of the first wave of ''[[Transformers: Universe (2008 toyline)|Universe]]''-branded ''[[Robot Heroes (toyline)|Robot Heroes]]'', Cheetor is a simple, yet well-detailed two-inch tall figurine with exaggerated, cartoony proportions. He is depicted in a running pose and is articulated at the shoulders and neck. He has a Maximal [[insignia|faction symbol]] on his butt.

: He was only available in a two-pack with [[Blackarachnia (BW)/toys#Robot Heroes|Blackarachnia]].

: This mold was also used to make [[Tigatron#Robot Heroes|Tigatron]].

: Cheetor is part of the fourth wave of ''[[Transformers: Universe (2008 toyline)|Universe]] [[Robot Heroes (toyline)|Robot Heroes]]'' and is designated as from the "Beast Machines Series", along with his packmate [[Tankor (BM)#Robot Heroes|Tankor]]. His sculpt and color scheme is derived solely from his television show appearance. Cheetor has articulation at the neck and shoulders, though his left arm's large sword inhibits movement.

:Rather than using the ''Beast Machines'' Maximal and Vehicon symbols, the embossed faction logos on the top of the Cheetor/Tankor packaging are the pre-existing ''Beast Wars'' Maximal and Predacon symbols found on ''Beast Wars''-themed ''Universe'' Robot Heroes packs.

{{toydesigner|[[Dennis Chan]] (sculptor)}}

:Released as part of the second wave of ''[[Transformers R.E.D.]]'' toys, Cheetor is a non-transforming 6-inch action figure akin to the ones from the ''[[Marvel Comics|Marvel]] Legends'' and ''[[Star Wars (franchise)|Star Wars]] The Black Series'' lines. He features 26 points of articulation and extensive paint operations in an attempt at [[show-accuracy]], though he owes much to a [https://www.instagram.com/p/CMjzg4gA9qK/ concept art design] by [[Ken Christiansen]], which had also inspired his [[#War for Cybertron: Kingdom|''Kingdom'' toy]] and ''[[Transformers: War for Cybertron Trilogy (cartoon)|War for Cybertron Trilogy]]'' animated series appearance.

:Cheetor's cheetah head chest plate can be removed to reveal details meant to represent his "inner workings". He comes with three pairs of hands altogether: two closed fists, two hands for holding weaponry and accessories, and two clawing hands. He also includes what his product description calls a "tail blaster", though it is more closely based on his traditional "gut gun" [[quasar rifle]], with two compatible translucent purple blast effects. Finally, he also comes with a small [[Energon crystal]] accessory.

:As with all ''R.E.D.'' toys, Cheetor was a Walmart exclusive in Canada and the United States, and was later made available on [[Hasbro Pulse]] in limited quantities.

:He is marketed as an Autobot instead of a Maximal and comes in an impressive multipack with [[Jada Toys#Nano Metalfigs|seventeen other figurines]].

==Notes==
{{anchor|GunTrivia}}
[[File:Cheetor-preliminarytoy.jpg|right|thumb|The original guns, featuring realistically painted cheetah guts. Hooray!]]
[[File:BWRConcept01.jpg|right|thumb|Cheetor's control art. Yes, that IS Cheetor, not Shadow Panther. Yes, it's not a cheetah.]]
* The first Cheetor toy was originally intended to be part of the first wave of ''Beast Wars'' Deluxes released, but experienced a delayed initial release, coming several weeks afterward. This was likely due to a change made to his "tail gun", which on the toy is much different from the version glimpsed in catalogues, commercials, and toy packaging cross-sells. The prototype gun is held via a handle on the top side of the tail rather than underneath the haunches and has a small blue gun barrel that flips out. Why this change was made and whether it was the actual cause of the delay are currently unknown.
* Cheetor's design art seems to indicate he wasn't originally designed to be a cheetah... or was at least designed to be generically big-cat-like enough to be other types of feline.
* Transmetal Cheetor's torso panel hinges went through several iterations during development. The resin hardcopy [[prototype]] started off with the panels' hinges being on the inside of the hinges connected to the torso. The second iteration in the test shot phase swapped this orientation, having the outer hinges be on the panel and the inner hinge be connected to the torso. By the final point of development, the hinges were kept the same as the second iteration, but were reinforced at the base to prevent breakages.<ref>[https://news.tfw2005.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/06/Robocon-18.jpg Various Transmetal Cheetor prototypes in a display at an unofficial fan convention.]</ref> Coincidentally, some test shot copies of the toy were molded in colors similar to that of the ''[[Transformers: Armada (toyline)|Armada]]'' [[Cheetor (Armada)#Toys|Cheetor]] [[retool]] which was released six years later.
* Transmetal Cheetor's engineering was reused for [[Stampy (BW)|Stampy]], though the two toys share no actual parts.
* An earlier unreleased prototype deco of ''Transmetal 2'' Cheetor, dubbed by fans as ''"Feral" Cheetor'', based on his first appearance in the "[[Feral Scream Part 1|Feral Scream]]" [[Feral Scream Part 2|episodes]] of the ''Beast Wars'' cartoon, replaces most of the yellow plastic used on the original figure with a paler shade that included a metallic swirl in it. The main body, thighs, robot and beast heads were also replaced with a burnt red plastic with a slight golden swirl. The paint colors of this variant don't seem to be 100% finalized, as the paint apps are almost identical to the regular retail version, minus the gray paint apps which were a lot darker. This version was only a pre-production sample and very few were made. It would seem as though this could have been the colors the figure would've been released in originally had the burnt red and pale yellow plastics not been swapped out with the all-yellow plastic on the final figure.<ref>[https://facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=3632697836770649&id=247519665288500 Report from BotCon's official Facebook page]</ref>

Who doesn't love '''Soundwave''' as a Mercedes-Benz luxury auto?

===''Revenge of the Fallen''===
====Legends Class toys====
[[File:ROTFLegends Soundwave.jpg|upright=1.66|thumb|No matter what mode you put him in, he is always ready to get down and dirty with unsuspecting satellites.]]
*'''Soundwave''' (Legends Class, [[2009]])
**''Japanese ID number'': '''EZ-16'''
:Part of the fifth wave of ''[[Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (toyline)|Revenge of the Fallen]]'' [[Legends Class (2005)|Legends Class]] figures, Soundwave transforms into a simplified version of his satellite altmode. The satellite head is completely covered in blue, however. Amusingly enough, his chest is sculpted in his Deluxe toy's flipped-up 'mode' (with the three circles showing) but is painted in the colors of the Deluxe's flipped-down form (shown on the Deluxe toy's packaging).

:The quality of Soundwave's head paint operations vary from figure-to-figure: Most had his blue paint carefully applied on the crest, while others have an extra paint on his upper left eye.

:Soundwave also saw release as a blindpacked figure for the first wave of the Revenge of the Fallen [[EZ Collection]] sets.

*'''Infiltrator Soundwave''' (EZ Collection, [[2010]])
:In Japan, Legends class Soundwave was [[redeco]]ed as ''Revenge of the Fallen'' "Infiltrator Soundwave" (インフィルトレイターサウンドウェーブ) to match the colors of Deluxe Class Infiltration Soundwave (see below). He was part of the Japanese ''[[Transformers Animated (franchise)|Transformers Animated]]'' promotion, and was only available to those who bought at least 3,000 Yen worth of ''[[Transformers Animated (toyline)|Transformers Animated]]'' toys at Amazon.jp and Yamada Denki stores.

**''Japanese ID number:'' '''RD-04'''

{{toydesigner|[[Alex Kubalsky]] (TakaraTomy)}}
:Part of the initial Movie Preview wave, ''[[Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (toyline)|Revenge of the Fallen]]'' Soundwave is a [[Triple Changer]], transforming into a satellite and a Cybertronian jet, which are not exactly what could be described as "distinct" from one another. In all three modes, Soundwave features a spring-loaded missile launcher which fires a missile intended to resemble Ravage, in reference to the scene in the film in which he launches the feline fiend down to Earth. In his (rather stocky) robot mode, Soundwave has blue light piping in his visor, but it is disabled, having been painted over in red; his other modes feature a second, armored version of his face, which is stored on the back of his robot mode. Probably to avoid giving the toy a very obviously two-headed robot mode, the alternate face lacks any paint details, and has an unpainted blue visor. Soundwave features numerous red and gold [[Paint operation|paint application]]s which are ''very'' cleverly and subtly positioned around his body to replicate similarly-colored and -positioned details on the [[Soundwave (G1)|original Soundwave toy]].

:The configuration for the satellite mode depicted in the toy's instructions is not the way Soundwave appears in the film, featuring a different angling for the panels on his shoulders. It's not a big change, but transforming the toy in accordance with his movie appearance ''does'' help to distinguish the jet from the satellite a little, since otherwise, virtually the only difference is in the positioning of the large panel "wings".

Soundwave was [[redeco]]ed predominantly in blue as an homage to the [[Soundwave (G1)|original Soundwave]]. The Fallen was unchanged from his original release.

:This Soundwave is also sold loose/mint in some Hobby Shop dealers in Asia.

:Exclusive to the 2009 "C3 X Hobby Chara Hobby" show that ran across [[August 29]]-[[August 30|30]] in Japan, ''Revenge of the Fallen'' "Soundwave Black Version" is a redeco of the Deluxe Class ''Revenge of the Fallen'' Soundwave toy in black and red with orange highlights. Following the convention, remaining quantities of the figure were made available to purchase via lottery through the [[e-HOBBY]] website. In 2014, The boxset is re-released as a lucky draw prize for the ''Transformers Celebration 2014'' event held at Ikebukuro Sunshine City store's Toys"R"Us, though this was very likely to be remaining stock.

**''Accessories:'' [[Ravage (ROTF)#Infiltration|Ravage]] missile
:Part of the "N.E.S.T. Global Alliance" campaign, ''Revenge of the Fallen'' "Infiltration Soundwave" is another redeco of the Deluxe Class Soundwave mold, this time in dark blue and dark gray, plus bright red that simulates the intense heat of orbital reentry. He also comes with new light-piping that ''isn't'' painted over.

:Soundwave is included in a two-pack with Battlefield Bumblebee, a retooling of Cannon Bumblebee with a new battle mask head. Also included is a "Mission Guide" catalog and ordering form for the mail-in exclusive Recon Ravage, a "starter sticker" for said ordering form, and a N.E.S.T. Global Alliance iron-on patch. Two additional stickers from specially-marked N.E.S.T. Global Alliance products and $4.95 shipping are required for the promotion. Sadly, this promotion does not exist in Europe or Australia, but Recon Ravage was made available in the latter country as a Toys"R"Us exclusive.

:Surprisingly, the package does not recognize his Cybertron jet mode, instead only acknowledging his satellite mode. His instructions ''do'' still mention his jet mode, though.

*'''Bumblebee / Soundwave''' with '''Rodimus''' (Cyberverse 3-pack, [[2011]])
:Part of a [[Walmart]] exclusive pack alongside [[Bumblebee (Movie)/toys#BeeSoundwaveRodimus|Bumblebee]] and [[Hot Rod (DOTM)|Rodimus]], ''Cyberverse'' Soundwave is a redeco of the ''Revenge of the Fallen'' Legends Class Soundwave, with a new deco inspired by the [[Toys"R"Us]] exclusive ''Gathering at Nemesis'' gift set (see above), which in turn was heavily influenced by [[The Transformers (franchise)|Generation 1]] [[Soundwave (G1)|Soundwave]]. The toy is mostly blue and gray, with some gold, red, and silver paint details here and there.

: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 ''not'' market Rodimus as a "bonus figure" (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't get a mention on the back of the packaging, which only features a one-sentence "bio" about Bumblebee planning to bring down Soundwave in twelve different languages.

: All versions of the packaging also lack any logos that label the toys as [[Cyberverse (toyline)|Cyberverse]] products.

:Part of the sixth wave of ''[[Transformers: Dark of the Moon (toyline)|Dark of the Moon]]'' Deluxe-Class [[MechTech]] figures, Soundwave transforms from an officially licensed Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG into a robot. In vehicle mode, he has two MechTech ports on the roof. His large "Sonic Cannon" can transform into an equally large "Interceptor Dish". In robot mode, Soundwave has MechTech ports in each hand and one on each shoulder, and he also has [[C joint]] bars on each leg. He features [[Kibble#"Faux-parts"|fake kibble]] as well, with his vehicle mode front grille being switched out and tucked away for a warped robot mode grille-chest.

:The sixth wave of ''Dark of the Moon'' Deluxe Class figures was released in Japan on December 21, whilst the US release, along with that of Human Alliance Soundwave, was ultimately cancelled.<ref>[http://www.seibertron.com/news/view.php?id=23986] - Toy Fair 2012 Update - No Que, Soundwave or Target Leadfoot Releases Planned " Seibertron.com site owner Ryan and news admin El Duque spoke briefly with the Hasbro Transformers brand team this morning at Toy Fair in New York regarding a few loose ends from yesterday. From their discussion, they bring news that there are currently no plans to release DOTM Que, Soundwave (both deluxe and Human Alliance) and Target-release Leadfoot at this time. The main reasons for this is what befalls many toy lines as they come to a close - retailers show more interest in the next line than they do in continuing the existing line.

{{toydesigner|[[Shogo Hasui]] (TakaraTomy)}}
:The voyager-sized [[Human Alliance]] ''Dark of the Moon'' Soundwave transforms into his fully licensed SLS AMG mode. He has "'''SUPERIOR'''" [[tampograph]]ed on his [[license plate]] and comes with [[Laserbeak (DOTM)#Human Alliance|Laserbeak]] and [[Dylan Gould#Toys|Mr. Gould]].

:As is usual for any Human Alliance figure, Gould (or any other "driver" figure) can can sit on Soundwave's seats in vehicle mode or stand on his hands in robot mode.

:Laserbeak can also transform into a spring-loaded missile-firing cannon for Gould to man, and the cannon itself can [[5 mm post|be pegged]] into any of Soundwave's six MechTech ports: two ports on his shoulders (his right shoulder is the nominal choice, as per the [[instructions]]), a port on top of each of his upper arms, and (rather awkwardly) a port on the sonic cannons on each of his lower arms. In bird mode, Laserbeak can also perch on either of the (flipped out) seats on Soundwave's lower arms via a molded-in [[C joint]] bar on the seats themselves and the bar clips on Laserbeak's heels.

:The pair of sonic cannons on the top of his left lower arm is also a panel that can be flipped open (up to 90 degrees), but since this is undocumented in the instructions, is only usable in robot mode, and doesn't appear to have anything inside it, its purpose remains unknown.

:Finally, as with all large Human Alliance toys, he has a [[gimmick]] concerning his head. It is essentially the same gimmick as [[Barricade (Movie)/toys#Human Alliance|Barricade]]'s: his jointed head allows him to open and close his mouth.

:As with many late-wave DOTM products, this toy was not released in the US.

:[[Cyberverse (toyline)#Series 2|''Cyberverse'' Series 2]] Soundwave is a dark blue and silver redeco/retool of his [[#CyberverseLegion|Legion Class toy]], retooling his other hand to be able to hold ''Cyberverse'' weapons. He comes with the same weapon/tool accessory as the ''[[Transformers: Prime (toyline)|Prime]]'' Cyberverse Legion Class [[Vehicon (Prime)#Cyberverse|Vehicon]] (later also used by [[Flamewar (Prime)#Cyberverse|Decepticon Flamewar]], in an ever-so-slightly different color). In a bizarre instance of a [[quality control]] error, the figure's [[packaging]] has its [[bio]] printed in white instead of black ink, making it impossible to read on the white background of the card.

:The United States market release of Soundwave used the template for the ''[[Transformers: Prime (toyline)|Transformers: Prime]]''-based Series 2 Cyberverse Legion Class packaging style but lacked the "Prime" moniker. The [[Multilingual packaging|multilingual]] European market packaging, meanwhile, retained the ''Prime'' title.

:''[[Asia Premium Series]]'' Soundwave is a rerelease of ''[[Transformers: Dark of the Moon (toyline)|Dark of the Moon]]'' [[Human Alliance]] Soundwave ([[Soundwave (ROTF)/toys#Human Alliance|see above]]) and retains all of the features and accessories of the original, including [[Laserbeak (DOTM)#Asia Premium Series|Laserbeak]] and [[Dylan Gould#Asia Premium Series|Mr. Gould]]. He is packed with a redeco of ''[[Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (toyline)|Revenge of the Fallen]]'' Human Alliance [[Barricade (Movie)/toys#Asia Premium Series|Barricade]] and, by extension, an unchanged [[Frenzy (Movie)#Asia Premium Series|Frenzy]].

:Buying this pack from certain retailers will include a [[die-cast]] Frenzy in his boombox mode.

**''Japanese release date'': '''[[February 25]], 2017'''
:Released as part of TakaraTomy's ''[[Transformers Movie The Best]]'' toyline to conclude the 10th anniversary of the [[live-action film series]], this Soundwave is an extensive redeco of his ''Human Alliance'' toy, without the Laserbeak and the Mr. Gould figure. This toy's paint apps are much more in-line to his Live Action model, featuring a simplified color palette and silver paint in comparison with the Hasbro toy.

*'''Soundwave''' (Tiny Turbo Changer, 2017)
**''Series'': '''1'''
**''Bag Code'': '''H'''
:Released in Series 1 of ''The Last Knight'' [[Tiny Turbo Changers]], Soundwave changes from robot based on his appearance in ''Dark of the Moon'' to a sports car of fictitious origin. He features articulation at his shoulders and waist and his hands are compatible with ''[[Cyberverse (toyline)|Cyberverse]]'' weapons and other small accessories. He shares his transformation engineering with the two [[Bumblebee (Movie)/toys#The Last Knight|Bumblebee]]s from the same wave. Blind-Bags stamped with the letter 'H' contain Soundwave figures.

:This mold was also used to make [[KSI Sentry#Movie Edition|''Movie Edition'' KSI Sentry]].

*'''Soundwave & Doombox''' (Target exclusive Leader Class, [[2018]])
**''Accessories'': [[Doombox]] Titan Master partner, spotlight/rocket-sled, rifle, shoulder cannon
:''[[Transformers: Bumblebee (toyline)#Bumblebee Greatest Hits|Bumblebee Greatest Hits]]'' Soundwave is a retool of ''[[Titans Return (toyline)|Titans Return]]'' [[Soundwave (G1)/toys#Titans Return|Soundwave]], who is in turn a retool of ''Titans Return'' [[Blaster (G1)/toys#Titans Return|Blaster]]. The figure comes with his [[Titan Master]] partner, [[Doombox]], who transforms into his head. In addition to his robot and boombox alternate modes, he can also transform into a "city mode" that can link up to the other base modes in ''Titans Return'', and features numerous 5 mm mounting points for weapons and Titan Master vehicles and turrets, as well as tiny pegs to accommodate many other Titan Master figures.

:In addition to his rifle, Soundwave also comes with his signature cannon "battery", which can plug into his shoulder, or store on his back while he is in alt mode. He includes a kind of "rocket-sled" with a seat for a Titan Master pilot which forms the topmost turret of his base mode. The sled stores inside Soundwave's chest compartment in other modes; a notch is cut into its underside to store Doombox while Soundwave is in boombox mode. Much like the ''Titans Return'' figures he is based on, Soundwave possesses the gimmick of being able to store any of the five ''Titans Return'' 'cassettes' inside his chest, as well as ''[[Combiner Wars (toyline)|Combiner Wars]]'' [[Buzzsaw (G1)/toys#Combiner Wars|Buzzsaw]] and the concurrently-released Movie Cassettes [[Howlback (BB)|Howlback]], [[Buzzsaw (ROTF)#Toys|Buzzsaw]], and [[Frenzy (Movie)#Bumblebee|Frenzy]]. He has several (non-functional) ports molded into his back and legs capable of accommodating real-life USB cables, headphone jacks, and power cables.

:He was released as a [[Target]] exclusive in the US, was available at Argos in the UK and was available in small quantities at Kmart in Australia.

:Power Plus Series Soundwave is a Scout-sized mold that converts from robot into a van that homages his [[Soundwave (Animated)|''Animated'']] and his Robot Powered Machines/Speed Stars counterpart, while sharing the same transformation scheme with [[Bumblebee (Movie)/toys#PowerPlusCamaro|Camaro Bumblebee]]. He also comes with his own Energon Core, which allows Soundwave's vehicle mode to zip along smooth surfaces. Inserting the core also deploys a pair of speakers from either side. Amusingly, the Igniter Core is molded after a boombox, and a sticker mural of a black jaguar and an eagle also homages [[Ravage (G1)|Ravage]] and [[Laserbeak (G1)|Laserbeak]].

*'''Soundwave''' (Deluxe Class, [[2019]])
**''Movie'': '''''Dark of the Moon'''''
**''Hasbro ID number:'' '''51'''
**''TakaraTomy ID number:'' '''SS-42'''
**''TakaraTomy release date:'' [[January 25]], [[2020]]
**''Accessories:'' [[Laserbeak (DOTM)#Studio Series|Laserbeak]] minifigure, "[[Namibia|Serengeti Hideout]]" backdrop

:The first ''[[Studio Series]]'' Soundwave is accurate to his appearance in ''Dark of the Moon'' and transforms into a fully-licensed Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG in 19 steps, with both modes generously coated in metallic silver paint. He comes with a non-transforming [[Laserbeak (DOTM)|Laserbeak]] figure—which can connect to Soundwave's arm using a [[C joint]] in his feet or to his vehicle mode roof using a tab on his knees—along with a cardboard backdrop depicting the Decepticon camp in [[Namibia]], [[Africa]].

:His headlight pieces have a tendency to pop off during transformation to robot mode thanks to some extremely tight clearances, and his metallic silver paint is prone to chipping in those spots. Soundwave also has molded drilled-rotor brake discs and brake calipers, a surprising detail for a mainline ''Transformers'' figure. [[For safety reasons]], his face, hands, knee spikes, and Laserbeak are molded in soft plastic.

:In what is most likely a coincidence, Laserbeak's car roof connection tab is the perfect size to fit in Soundwave's wheel rims, allowing him to perch on either of his shoulders (or his legs, if you're feeling creative) while in robot mode.

:Like the rest of the Deluxe figures in the same wave, Soundwave first saw release at Toys"R"Us shops in Malaysia and independent retailers in Hong Kong.

[[File:Studio-Series-62-Deluxe-ROTF-Soundwave.jpg|upright=1.66|thumb|"Hey, I look [[Jetstorm (BM)|different]]."]]
*'''Soundwave''' (Deluxe Class, August 2020)
**''Movie'': '''''Revenge of the Fallen'''''
**''Hasbro ID number:'' '''62'''
**''TakaraTomy ID number:'' '''SS-55'''
**''TakaraTomy release date:'' [[September 26]], 2020
**''Accessories:'' Translucent stand, "Orbital Espionage" backdrop

:The second version of ''Studio Series'' Soundwave represents his appearance in ''Revenge of the Fallen'', transforming from a robot to a Cybertronian satellite in 10 steps. This makes him the least complex figure in the line. He comes with a translucent stand and a cardboard backdrop display depicting Earth's orbit, the place where he resided during the film.

:Soundwave's thighs, shoulders, biceps, and upper torso skeleton are re-used from the ''Dark of the Moon'' toy above. The forearms were redesigned to have solar panels and slightly different "speaker" detailing, while also excluding the connectors for [[Laserbeak (DOTM)|Laserbeak]] to perch on. Despite the ''Studio Series'' line's goal of being screen-accurate, the short length of his solar panels means that he is actually less accurate in satellite mode than his original ''Revenge of the Fallen'' Deluxe Class toys. His robot mode design had also been completely revamped from its original design, which had been the basis for his appearances in the IDW movie comics and various other forms of tie-in media until [[2020]]. That being said, it should be noted that his robot mode was never shown in the ''Revenge of the Fallen'' film itself and ''Studio Series'' has already produced a number of toys based on characters who did not have robot modes on-screen.

:Soundwave's instructions are missing a step, making it appear as if the panel hanging from his rear miraculously shifts to rest higher in robot mode. The way to achieve this is by untabbing the hinged section from a port in his butt and hinging it up, making the panel sit further away from the backs of his legs, which in turn, positions the panel slightly higher on his back. It's a ''very'' minor difference and it's not very rewarding, but it does exist one way or another and being illustrated in the robot mode design in the instructions suggests that it may have been intentional.

:Amusingly, despite the ''Studio Series'' line's emphasis on proper [[scale]], this Soundwave stands nearly a full head taller than the prior release from ''Dark of the Moon'' above.

:Oddly, he does not come with [[Ravage (ROTF)#Studio Series|Ravage]], who is instead included with [[Grindor (ROTF)#Studio Series|Grindor]] as a non-transforming figurine.

{{toydesigner|[[Sam Smith]] (Hasbro), [[Ittoku Kuwazu]] (TakaraTomy)| [[Emiliano Santalucia]] (concept art)}}<ref>Sam Smith's [https://www.instagram.com/p/Cbf85yBPFUu/ Instagram post] for ''Studio Series Bumblebee'' Soundwave</ref>

:Part of the 15th wave of ''[[Studio Series]]'' Voyager Class toys, this Soundwave is an extremely accurate depiction of his appearance in the ''[[Bumblebee (film)|Bumblebee]]'' film. He transforms into a hovercraft that coincidentally evokes his [[:File:ISawThreeShips-soundwavealtmode.jpg|alternate mode]] in ''[[Transformers vs. G.I. Joe]]'' "[[I Saw Three Ships]]". Like most of ''Bumblebee'''s Cybertronian characters, this alt mode was created by Hasbro and TakaraTomy as the film model was not designed to transform. He comes with a generic blaster and his signature shoulder cannon, both of which can store via 5mm ports on the sides of his vehicle mode but can also be attached via the prominent screw holes on the top which are also 5mm compatible.

:Soundwave's light-piping gimmick is sadly neutered as his visor is painted red rather than being translucent as the render on his packaging shows. But as the back of his head is cast in the same smoky gray translucent plastic used for his chest windows, this is probably for the best. Other differences with his promotional renders also include the ring of red dots around the tip of his cannon which are absent on the figure itself.

:''Studio Series'' Core Class [[Ravage (ROTF)#SSBB|Ravage]] in his Cybertronian cassette mode can store in Soundwave's chest, allowing him to "eject" Ravage in robot mode or drop him out of the bottom of his vehicle mode. Ravage also includes a missile based on [[Soundwave (G1)|"Generation 1" Soundwave]]'s, which can plug into the end of his shoulder cannon. Said shoulder cannon ''can'' be held in Soundwave's hands if it bugs you that that isn't where his missile should go, but it's not the most secure fit because the 5mm peg handle is too short for the rear of the weapon to properly clear Soundwave's bulky forearms. Also, in what is most likely a lucky stroke of coincidence, [[Laserbeak (Cybertron)#Toys|''Cybertron'' Laserbeak]] in his hexagonal bomb mode can fit perfectly inside Soundwave's chest as well.

:Like all other ''Studio Series'' toys, the interior of the package is a display backdrop, the design of which depicts a war-torn Cybertron as it appears in the beginning of the film.

:The [[Burger King]] version of Soundwave is a representation of the communications satellite which Soundwave hacked into in the movie. The dishes have tendril details added to them. Peering into an opening in the top gives a sort of periscope effect, although as there is only one mirror, everything looks backwards.

*'''Flip-Out Soundwave''' (2011)
:Part of the 2011 [[Burger King]] ''Dark of the Moon'' promotion, Soundwave is a simple figure with [[Super_deformed|bobble-head-like]] proportions, but is otherwise reasonably accurate to his on-screen appearance. The entirety of his body flips out of his enormous head when it is opened. Circles on his front and back are daubed with glow-in-the-dark paint.

===RPMs - ''Robot Powered Machines''===
[[File:RPM Soundwave toy.jpg|thumb|upright=1.66|See? You ''have'' your damn ''Prime'' toys, now shut up!!]]
*'''Soundwave''' (2010)
**''Series:'' '''Metal Heroes'''
**''Number:'' '''04 of 08''' (only seven released)
:''[[Robot Powered Machines]]'' Soundwave is a small, non-transforming pseudo-Scion XB with his robot mode sculpted underneath. Said robot mode resembles [[Soundwave (WFC)|another Soundwave]] for some reason. The car's wheels feature through-axle construction for speedy racing on flat surfaces. Unlike other RPMs, Soundwave, along with the rest of the Metal Heroes, is made of [[die-cast]] metal.

:RPM Soundwave is probably the most homage-heavy Transformer ever produced: he has [[Soundwave (Animated)|''Animated'' Soundwave]]'s alt mode and a mix between his regular and Electrostatic incarnations "tattoos", [[Soundwave (WFC)|''War for Cybertron'' Soundwave]]'s robot mode (which in turn was heavily based on [[Soundwave (G1)|G1 Soundwave]]) and despite this, the bio and toyline clearly identify him as ROTF Soundwave. You can try and add [[Soundwave (Cybertron)|Cybertron Soundwave]] to the list if you want, but that would be overkill.

:This toy's American release and the rest of the Metal Heroes were canceled in favor of the [[Speed Stars]] versions of the toys. They have been released in the Philippines, New Zealand and Mexico (at a discounted price compared to past RPM releases), however. Both versions were eventually available at retail in those countries.

===''Speed Stars''===

*'''Soundwave''' (2010)
**''Series:'' '''Metal Heroes'''
**''Number:'' '''04 of 08'''
:[[Speed Stars]] Soundwave is a [[redeco]] of the RPM vehicle, featuring many differences in comparison to the Robot Powered Machines release. Namely, the Speed Stars version lacks paint in the doors and tail lights, as well as the chest, arms, legs and face of the "robot" mode. The plastic at the bottom of the car is cast in gold instead of bronze. This version also lacks the "Soundwave-Audio" written on the lower part of the doors. The red that borders the rims of his wheels is also not as bright or vibrant.

:This toy was given away free as part of a Daily Mirror promotion in the UK.

:This Soundwave toy is part of the "[[Stealth Force]]" subline, consisting of vehicles without robot modes, but with plenty of flip-out panels with hidden weapons. Like the smaller Metal Heroes toy, Soundwave has ''Animated'' Soundwave's Scion XB altmode and features ''War for Cybertron'' Soundwave on his packaging. He features non-firing weapons hidden all throughout the toy, activated by pulling part of the roof back.

:Soundwave comes with a set of alternate hands, namely grabbing hands, alongside a Blaster that can be held by either hand, closed fists, open splayed hands and a hand sculpted to look like he is pressing the button to release Ravage.

:''Sideways is an agent of [[Unicron]] from the [[Unicron Trilogy continuity family]].''

[[File:ArmadaSidewaysCardArt.jpg|right|upright=1.95|thumb|Goofy ominous nutball hardass.]]
'''Sideways''' is the consummate con-artist. He is misleading and deceitful in everything he does, portraying himself as the ninja-like warrior or the aloof drifter, and he lives for the look of shock and betrayal on his victims' faces when they realize he's played them for fools. Though Sideways appears to be a robot of average size and strength, he is nigh-invincible when he calls upon the powers of Unicron. Using the mysterious [[trans-phase mode]], he can take any form he chooses, and "heal" even the most grievous damage at will. Often, he'll eschew a body entirely, choosing to speak through monitors or as a vision in the sky. When he does choose to manifest in physical form, there is one constant: Sideways prefers to shroud his face behind a mask or visor or [[Mini-Con]] so as to keep himself mysterious and anonymous.

==Fiction==
===Unicron Trilogy cartoon continuity===
====''Armada'' cartoon====
{{voiceactor|[[Paul Dobson]], [[Mark Acheson]] (as Unicron) (English); [[Takahiro Sakurai]] (Japanese)|[[Ekkehardt Belle]] (German), [[Jhonny Torres]] (Latin-American Spanish), [[Francisco Andrés Valdivia]] (Castilian Spanish), [[Raine Heiskanen]] (Finnish), [[Johan Hedenberg]] (Swedish), [[Anders Öjebo]] (Swedish, "[[Credulous]]", "[[Conspiracy]]" and "[[Trust]]"), [[Olivier Destrez]] (French), [[Gerolamo Alchieri]] (Italian)}}

[[File:Gale Needalift.jpg|left|upright=1.4|thumb|Hey kids, want some candy?]]
Sideways appeared as a beam of light from the sky striking a large [[Earth]] city near the Autobot base. An enigmatic warrior, he appeared to side with the Autobots, helping Hot Shot by watching his back during a confrontation with Scavenger. When asked to reveal himself, he transformed, his rider quickly splitting and becoming a helmet that covered his entire head. He claimed to be a drifter who just wandered into the conflict. While he gave the human kids [[Billy (Armada)|Billy]] and [[Fred (Armada)|Fred]] rides in cycle mode to keep them entertained, [[Hot Shot (Armada)/Cartoon continuity|Hot Shot]], [[Red Alert (Armada)|Red Alert]], [[Rad White|Rad]] and [[Alexis Thi Dang|Alexis]] were all suspicious of the motorcycle's motives, especially his close attention to the Mini-Cons. {{storylink|Gale}}

[[File:Credulous Sidewaysknocksswordaway.jpg|right|upright=1.4|thumb|Surprise, the mysterious ninja is evil!]]

In the following battle, [[Megatron (Armada)/Cartoon continuity|Megatron]] faced Sideways and Hot Shot alone, and managed to force the [[Mini-Con storage panel|Mini-Con panel]] Sideways had (apparently) found out of his grasp. As the Decepticon leader began to warp away, both Autobots grabbed onto Megatron and all three were teleported to the [[Moon (moon)|Moon]]. To Hot Shot and Megatron's surprise, the Mini-Con panel was a fake, made to convince Megatron to retreat so that Hot Shot, spurred on by Sideways's encouragement, could defeat the Decepticons once and for all. Though both robots fought well alongside each other, with Sideways expressing concern over Hot Shot's well-being, he eventually betrayed the young Autobot, by striking a deal with Megatron. He would pretend to be Megatron's hostage and in exchange, no matter what, Hot Shot would turn over the [[Star Saber (Armada)|Star Saber]]. At first, Hot Shot did follow through, but reneged at the last moment by calling the Mini-Cons back to him. Sideways suddenly attacked Hot Shot, knocking the Star Saber out of his hands and kicking it to [[Starscream (Armada)/Cartoon continuity|Starscream]]. He switched Mini-Con heads, revealing his allegiance to the Decepticons. Hot Shot was savagely beaten by the Decepticons. They stopped short of destroying him on the advice of [[Scavenger (Armada)|Scavenger]], who teleported the young 'bot back to the Autobot base. {{storylink|Credulous}} Sideways watched with indifference as the Decepticons became divided over Starscream's possession of the Star Saber. Even when Demolishor turned to him specifically for support, Sideways claimed he wasn't one for "taking sides." On their next Mini-Con hunt, Sideways crossed paths with Hot Shot, though he avoided fighting him. Instead, he took to taunting him as the Autobot gave him chase. Hot Shot managed to knock Sideways off his wheels on their second of such races, which allowed the Autobot to regain some confidence in himself. {{storylink|Conspiracy}}

[[File:Sidewaysheads.jpg|left|upright=0.85|thumb|My Autobot counterpart is nearby...]]

When Starscream voiced his concerns that Scavenger might have went and joined the Autobots after deserting the Decepticons, Sideways stood in agreement with him. He put on a front of being especially spiteful towards Scavenger, stating that no one should get away with betraying the Decepticons. Starscream was right, and thanks to Scavengers' superior tactics, Megatron was gravely injured and tossed down a crevasse on the Decepticons' next mission. Sideways hauled him out, but with the Decepticon leader too damaged to continue fighting, the Decepticons were forced to retreat. {{storylink|Trust (Armada)|Trust}}

Megatron decided to take his frustration out on his troops, and had them participate in a "training exercise," where he chased them around with the Star Saber. Sideways tried to sit the whole thing out, only for Megatron to find his hiding place and dedicate all of his efforts on chasing Sideways specifically. {{storylink|Vacation}}

With Sideways's help, the Decepticon nearly secured the Mini-Con [[Incinerator (Armada)|Incinerator]] (losing him to the Autobots at the last moment due to [[Blurr (Armada)|Blurr]]'s arrival) and then went after the last member of the [[Skyboom (Armada)|Skyboom Shield]] trio, [[Downshift (Armada)|Downshift]]. This Mini-Con had somehow activated on his own, and fled from anyone who approached him. As one of the speedier Decepticons, Sideways gave chase to Downshift, only to be blasted by Smokescreen and taken out of the race. {{storylink|Reinforcement}}

When Megatron announced that he planned to challenge the Autobots to a decisive battle, Sideways worried that the Decepticons might bring the Cybertronians' war to a premature end. He found himself unable to dissuade Megatron of this course of action, so he opted to sabotage his own team's victory instead. Sideways first feigned defeat after charging Red Alert, then covertly shot down Cyclonus. This allowed Autobot reinforcements to reach Optimus, who in turn wrestled the Skyboom Shield away from Megatron. {{storylink|Decisive Battle}} Despite this setback, Megatron was quick to start planning another confrontation against Optimus Prime. While the Decepticon leader practiced tactics with the Mini-Cons under his command, Sideways shot at him under the pretense that it added legitimacy to his battle exercise. Sideways was later left on standby while Megatron implements his scheme to divide the Autobots around the globe, forcing Optimus to fight him and his Mini-Cons alone. Demolishor barked orders at Sideways and Starscream all the while, though the pair showed little enthusiasm in return. {{storylink|Vow}}

Sideways began to double his efforts towards manipulating the Decepticons and playing them against each other to suit his mysterious goals. One of these goals was the replacement of Megatron as Decepticon leader. Sideways sowed the seeds of rebellion within the Decepticon ranks, subtly turning Starscream against Megatron and convincing Megatron of Starscream's imminent treachery. The situation came to a head when the two Decepticons fought outside their base, but Sideways then realized Megatron would never execute Starscream for his insubordination, exposing an ever-constant weakness within the Decepticon command structure. After the battle, Sideways mused that this weakness would come back to haunt Megatron one day, and would be his ruin. Fortunately though, this incident somehow served to solidify the Decepticons as a unit, giving them much greater morale and cohesiveness, and achieving Sideways's aims of giving neither faction in the conflict a clear advantage. {{storylink|Rebellion (Armada)|Rebellion}}

[[File:Chase RainbowSideways.jpg|right|upright=1.1|thumb|You don't want to taste Sideways's rainbow.]]

Shortly thereafter, Sideways tried to hack the Autobot base computer, only to encounter the children attempting to destroy the equipment to stop Sideways. He transported them to a digital universe, where they saw the coming of two [[Jetfire (Armada)|new]] [[Tidal Wave (Armada)|combatants]]. He tried to threaten them into handing over the [[Street Action Mini-Con Team]], before the kids realized that as the realm they were in wasn't real, Sideways could not harm them. Sideways then apologized to an unseen master, shortly before the children escaped the digital universe, chased by an unknown [[Unicron|entity]]. {{storylink|Chase (episode)|Chase}}

Sideways settled for continuing to aid Megatron's unit in a more conventional manner on the battlefield, despite it only leading to losses for their side. However, the tactician [[Thrust (Armada)|Thrust]] joined their team, providing them with much more effective and coordinated battle plans. Despite his first plan failing due to the arrival of [[Jetfire (Armada)|Jetfire]], {{storylink|Tactician}} the Decepticons retained faith in their new recruit. Thrust organized their flying units into ambushing Jetfire over the ocean, where the other Autobots wouldn't be able to come to his aid. Demolishor, Sideways, and Megatron laid in wait on a nearby island, the only place from which the earthbound Autobots could provide Jetfire with support. Once their enemies warped in, the Decepticons executed a secondary ambush, forcing Blurr, Hot Shot, and Smokescreen to remain on the defensive. But Thrust hadn't taken into account one detail: Optimus and Jetfire could combine! Once they did, they regained control of the battlefield, Sideways scampered away. {{storylink|Linkup}}

Sideways grew worried over Thrust joining Megatron's squad, and with good reason: Sideways was speedily caught by Thrust and the others while communicating with his unseen master. Sideways panicked and attempted to escape. He was caught by [[Megatron (Armada)/Cartoon continuity|Megatron]], who sliced him in half with the Star Saber. Sideways simply reformed, reconnecting his parts and absorbing laser blasts from the other Decepticons. Megatron, in fury and disgust, hacked Sideways to pieces and he was seemingly destroyed... or so the Decepticons thought. Sideways had entered [[trans-phase mode]] and his [[Mirror|rider]] rose in the form of a twisted [[nanite]] creature before the Decepticons' eyes, declaring that the Star Saber and Skyboom shield were merely toys to him, as he was near-invincible. His rider said there were millions of Mini-Cons left to be found, and challenged Megatron to see who would find them first, before flying off to parts unknown. {{storylink|Detection}}

[[File:Awakening-Sidewaysonscreen.jpg|left|upright=1.1|thumb|Sideways may be dead, but he lives on in reruns.]]

While most of the Autobots were on Earth fighting the monstrous new Decepticon recruit, [[Tidal Wave (Armada)|Tidal Wave]], Sideways made an appearance inside the Autobots' base... on a monitor! He told [[Red Alert (Armada)|Red Alert]] and Alexis about the [[Requiem Blaster (Armada)|Requiem Blaster]], and how the Autobots had to find the three Mini-Cons that formed it before the Decepticons did. Neither of them trusted Sideways, but they knew he was right; if the Decepticons found the Requiem Blaster first, it would spell doom for the Autobots and the galaxy. {{storylink|Awakening (Armada)|Awakening}} Once the Autobots had acquired the Requiem Blaster, Sideways appeared once again on the Autobots' monitors, laughing. He showed them that he'd disabled their defenses. Sure enough, the Decepticons infiltrated the Autobot base, took the Requiem Blaster, and nearly killed [[Smokescreen (Armada)|Smokescreen]] in the process. {{storylink|Sacrifice}}

Later, Sideways appeared to the Decepticon tactician, [[Thrust (Armada)|Thrust]], and told him that the Requiem Blaster would be even more powerful if used in conjunction with the other two Mini-Con weapons, the sword and the shield. {{storylink|Mars (episode)|Mars}} Thrust talked with Sideways again in a secret, ominous meeting. They planned to get the Mini-Con weapons away from the Autobots. {{storylink|Crack (episode)|Crack}} Thanks to Starscream's confusion on where his loyalties lay, he was able to steal the other two weapons from the Autobots, giving the Decepticons all three weapons. Thrust was hard at work on a secret project for Megatron, one that would harness the energy of all three weapons, and Sideways congratulated the tactician on his growing duplicity. When the three weapons were combined to power the starship [[Hydra Cannon]], Megatron used it to blow up a nearby comet while Sideways laughed from afar, on Earth's moon. {{storylink|Threaten}}

Both the Autobots and Decepticons were en route to Cybertron when a few of each faction were warped to a strange planet where they fought a dark copy of [[Optimus Prime (Armada)/Cartoon continuity|Optimus Prime]] called [[Nemesis Prime (Armada)|Nemesis Prime]]. When Optimus Prime and Megatron combined their firepower against it, Nemesis Prime was destroyed, and as the copy dissipated, Sideways appeared momentarily. Nemesis Prime had merely been Sideways's puppet. {{storylink|Puppet}}

[[File:Uprising-SidewaysSpookyGhost.jpg|right|upright=1.1|thumb|He controls the horizontal, but not the vertical. The vertical is for saps.]]

When both sides had arrived on Cybertron, a black hole opened up over the planet. It started becoming apparent to some that Unicron was drawing near. An apparition of Sideways appeared over the Autobots, and the Mini-Cons attacked it. After telling the Mini-Cons to get lost, Sideways again disappeared. Sideways returned to swear vengeance against the Mini-Cons when they tried to stop the black hole's effects. {{storylink|Uprising (Armada)|Uprising}} Eventually, Thrust became suspicious that his partnership with Sideways and Unicron might be found out, so he panicked and stole the Requiem Blaster and Skyboom Shield. Thrust ran deep underground where he met up with Sideways, but he was tailed by Starscream. Starscream declined Sideways's obligatory offer to join Unicron, and the two fought.

[[File:Portent-Sideways vs Starscream.jpg|left|upright=1.1|thumb|Armada basically lines up the cast one by one so Sideways can call them an idiot.]]

Sideways assaulted Starscream with strange tendrils and amoeba-like organisms, and he and Thrust were able to leave with the two weapons. Now inside the moon in Cybertron's orbit, Sideways placed the Mini-Con weapons into its core, revealing that the moon was Unicron lying dormant all along. {{storylink|Portent}} The last of the three Mini-Con weapons was dropped by Starscream when he sacrificed himself to Unicron to prove to Galvatron (a transformed Megatron) that Autobot and Decepticon must join forces to destroy Unicron. Sideways formed over what was left of Starscream and grabbed the sword, making an easy getaway. {{storylink|Cramp}}

With all three weapons in place within Unicron's core, Sideways's master was able to shed the rest of his moon disguise and show his real form. Sideways and his patsy Thrust celebrated their inevitable victory over time and space. {{storylink|Alliance}} Thrust was told by Sideways to leave, as his work for now Unicron was now done. Thrust was confused, thinking he would be Unicron's right-hand man, but Sideways got angry, and ordered him to leave immediately. Thrust, dejected, left for the surface, where he later was crushed to death within Unicron's creases during the battle. {{storylink|Union}}

[[File:Origin-SidewaysUnicroncore.jpg|right|upright=1.4|thumb|"I'm going to start elongating all my 's' sounds, Optimusssss."]]

Optimus and Galvatron managed to reach the glowing core deep within Unicron's body. Before their eyes, the core budded, recreating the body of Sideways. Unicron spoke through this Sideways body, announcing that Sideways had always been an extension of Unicron himself, and that Sideways had intentionally stoked the flames of the Autobot/Decepticon war so that Unicron could be fueled by their mutual hatred. He took special delight in mocking Optimus Prime for claiming to fight a war for peace, a seeming contradiction. The truth, according to Unicron/Sideways, was that Optimus Prime loved to battle; Prime refused to admit this. Unicron/Sideways wrapped Prime and Galvatron in tendrils, drained Galvatron of his energy, and offered Prime the opportunity to merge with him.

[[File:Sideways dead.jpg|left|upright=0.85|thumb|Ouchies.]]

Then the children and their Mini-Cons arrived, and they pleaded with him to stop, but Unicron/Sideways was able to claim them as their own; the Mini-Cons were Unicron's creation, after all. But inside a dreamworld created by Unicron, the children were able to call out to the Mini-Cons. They reactivated and told Unicron/Sideways that they believed in peace, and would fight for it if necessary. Their combined might was able to help Prime break free of his tendrils, and he fired a shot right through Sideways using the Requiem Blaster. As what was left of Sideways faded, he claimed he'd have his revenge... {{storylink|Origin}}

{{note|Internal to the ''Armada'' series, it is slightly unclear whether Unicron was somehow possessing his body for that period of time, or if Sideways had been an extension of Unicron all along instead of a separate individual. The additional backstory provided for Sideways in ''Cybertron'', however, would seem to establish that it's the former. Additionally, in "[[Credulous]]", before Sideways's Mini-Con head connects with his body after colliding with Megatron, an odd voice spoke, sounding like it came from a being of lesser intelligence emanated from the motorcycle body's own head, before the Mini-Con head took over. The mysterious line not being in the Japanese version of the episode and the shaky nature of the ''Armada'' dub in general only further obscures the issue.}}

====Linkage====
After informing the Autobots of the Requiem Blaster, Sideways journeyed to the [[Antarctica|Antarctic]] to deliver [[Ravenus]] and the [[Doomstone]] to a group of [[Speed Chaser Team|evil Mini-Cons]] who were hunting down [[Super Stunt Team|a group of refugee Mini-Cons]] for their master. {{storylink|Linkage Part 8}} When they failed to eliminate or claim [[Redline]] and his friends, the evil Mini-Cons used [[trans-phase mode]] to connect with Sideways via a dimensional portal, and fled from Earth. {{storylink|Linkage Part 12}}

====''Cybertron'' comic====
Sideways and Soundwave agreed to serve Unicron in exchange for the assured death of Gigantion. {{storylink|Revelations Part 3|Soundwave's bio}} Thanks to this deal, Sideways was preserved by Unicron's dark power after his defeat by the Requiem Blaster. {{storylink|Ask Vector Prime}}

{{note|In the original ''Galaxy Force'' version of the show, "[[Noisemaze (Cybertron)|Noisemaze]]" is unrelated to the Double Face/Sideways who appears in ''Legends of the Microns''/''Armada''. Despite this and the differences in characterization, backstory, and voice actor, ancillary material clarifies that—as far as [[Hasbro]] is concerned—''Armada'' and ''Cybertron'' Sideways are the same character.}}

Sideways and [[Soundwave (Cybertron)|Soundwave]] were the last two survivors of the tyrannical [[Planet X (Cybertron)|Planet X]] which was destroyed as the result of a battle between it and Gigantion long ago. Even though X started the war and was destroyed by its ''own'' weapon of mass destruction, the survivors were still determined to destroy Gigantion as revenge! {{storylink|Challenge}}

Sideways entered the Transformers war during their desperate search for the [[Cyber Planet Key]]s. After the disappearance of ''[[Atlantis]]'', he observed from the top of a rocky cliff and wondered how he could best manipulate both factions to his own advantage. It wouldn't be long until they were all his puppets! {{storylink|Deep}} He offered his services to the Autobots, but as soon as he'd helped them corner Starscream, Sideways switched to a Decepticon symbol, fired on the Autobots, and promptly left. Starscream and the others were left wondering exactly what that was all about. {{storylink|Ship}}

[[File:Sand-Sideways explains.jpg|right|upright=1.4|thumb|Honestly, guys, I'm an Autobot! You don't remember me at all!]]

Later, Sideways sent transmissions to both the Autobots and Decepticons, beckoning them to the [[Jungle Planet (colony)|Jungle Planet]]. He appeared with the other Decepticons as they confronted the Autobots, chuckling evilly as they argued over who sent the messages leading to their meeting. When a fight broke out, he battled [[Vector Prime]] until Megatron was beaten by Optimus' new Savage Claw Mode. {{storylink|Savage}} Sideways stood back and observed as Megatron fumed after his defeat. Noting that the locals were itching for another fight with Prime, Sideways sought out [[Overhaul (Cybertron)|Leobreaker]] in the woods, pleading for help to save a friend buried under a rockslide. Leobreaker rallied the other Autobots on Jungle Planet and marched them into a canyon to save this imaginary friend, while Sideways sent a fake message from Optimus Prime to [[Scourge (Cybertron)|Scourge]], luring the Decepticons to the same location. The two factions met in battle as Sideways planned, while he mused from above that no matter who lost, he would win! But he was spotted, and Leobreaker angrily threw him to the ground for lying to him. Sideways desperately explained that he was a "secret agent" for the Autobots, digging for "inside information". Optimus Prime wasn't convinced, but when their interrogation was interrupted by a communication from [[Landmine (Energon)|Landmine]], Sideways transformed and escaped. {{storylink|Sand}}

Sideways traveled with Megatron and the other Decepticons to [[Velocitron]] to apprehend the Speed Planet Cyber Planet Key. Here, Leobreaker and Sideways clashed again. When Megatron lost the Cyber Planet Key to [[Override (Cybertron)|Override]], he, Sideways, and the other Decepticons fled. {{storylink|Champion}} Meanwhile, as Optimus Prime prepared to battle Scourge for the Jungle Planet Cyber Planet Key, Sideways and Starscream plotted. {{storylink|Honor}} As Scourge trained for the coming battle, Sideways and Starscream bet on the winner. At Sideways's suggestion, Starscream interfered with the Autobots's ability to get to the battle, thus causing Scourge's faith in Prime as an honorable opponent to waver. {{storylink|Primal (Cybertron)|Primal}}

When the Autobots finally defeated Scourge and acquired the Cyber Planet Key, Sideways was deployed with the rest of Megatron's troops to track down the Key after the Autobots split up with several decoy boxes. He personally pursued Vector Prime, revealing the ability to warp as he battled the ancient warrior for the box he held. When Vector Prime sent out [[Safeguard (Cybertron)|Safeguard]] to attack, Sideways used his faction-swapping shield to trick the Mini-Con into leaving before snatching the box from Vector Prime. When he found nothing but a rock inside, Sideways beat a hasty retreat. He was later seen goofing off as Megatron and Starscream went after the real holders of the Cyber Planet Key, and returned to Megatron's personal dimension when the rest of the Autobots arrived to secure the Key. {{storylink|Trust (Cybertron)|Trust}}

[[File:Retreat-SidewaysStarscreamarmy.jpg|left|upright=1.1|thumb|That's right, the undercarriage of Sideways's altmode shows you the inside of his split-open ass.]]

Starscream was growing tired of Megatron's attitude towards him, and Sideways wondered if Starscream was going to doublecross his leader. When Megatron and his troops headed out from his dimension to find another Cyber Planet Key, Starscream instead chose to head to Earth. Intrigued, Sideways followed Starscream there, where they witnessed a burst of Cyber Key-related energy. He joined Starscream on his trip to the Arctic, where the wayward Decepticon demanded the Autobot [[Crosswise (Cybertron)|Crosswise]] give him Earth's Cyber Planet Key. When Sideways realized that Starscream had sent Megatron the wrong direction and intended to take Earth's Key for himself, he decided to stay back and watch Starscream's fight with Crosswise, out of harm's way. ...at least, until Crosswise looked like he was going to lose, when Sideways happily leapt into action to kick him while he was down. Crosswise drove away, and Sideways shadowed him while Starscream investigated the cave he was guarding. {{storylink|Trap}} Sideways followed Crosswise all the way to his hidden hideout, where his leader, [[Evac (Cybertron)|Evac]], was waiting. When Sideways was discovered, he once again fled. {{storylink|Invasion (episode)|Invasion}}

Starscream, meanwhile, had recruited countless imprisoned Decepticons he had freed in the Arctic, and so Sideways stood at his side while Starscream marched his army across the face of the Earth. They converged on the location of the Autobot base, where they found the Autobots retreating via a [[space bridge]]. Starscream and Sideways engaged them in battle, but Sideways was quickly knocked away by the Autobots' firepower. {{storylink|Retreat}} Starscream succeeded in grabbing the Autobots' collected Cyber Planet Keys and the [[Omega Lock]], and returned to his underground volcanic lair, where Sideways and [[Thunderblast (Decepticon)|Thunderblast]] were waiting. {{storylink|Critical}} The Autobots weren't far behind, and a clash between them and Starscream's army was inevitable. Sideways called them forth, ordering them to rise up and destroy their enemies, while he and Starscream watched the battlefield through a portal; Starscream was slowly absorbing the power of his stolen goods, and wasn't quite ready yet. The Autobots and Megatron managed to break into the volcano base, but Sideways had prepared a series of explosive boobytraps. {{storylink|Assault}}

[[File:Starscreamepisode-Sidewaysposes.jpg|right|upright=1.4|thumb|Hey, Sideways, your shield has huge gaps in it.]]

Despite this, the Autobots were able to get through them, where they came face to face with Sideways. Asked as to what side he was on today, Sideways replied that he was on his own, but today he was betting on Starscream. The Autobots fought him, but he was able to warp around them at will, and none were able to land a punch. Ultimately, [[Vector Prime]] placed his Mini-Con, [[Safeguard (Cybertron)|Safeguard]] on Sideways's back, and Optimus Prime was able to use that to detect where Sideways would appear next. After several blasts, Sideways was once again able to flee, this time because of the arrival of Scourge. He returned to Starscream's side, where the wayward Decepticon was nearly finished absorbing the Omega Lock's power. When Starscream said he wouldn't run to face Megatron, but wait for Megatron to come and be picked off at his leisure, Sideways realized there was nothing more he could do there and left, teleporting away. {{storylink|Starscream (episode)|Starscream}} Once the tremendous battle was over, and Starscream (despite having grown to a large size) had fallen over defeated, Sideways reappeared. Noting that Starscream could still be useful to him, he warped Starscream's humongous body away. {{storylink|United}} Starscream woke up inside the ''Atlantis'', with Sideways standing over him. Sideways explained that during the time Starscream had been out, Megatron had been defeated and Primus had awoken. The two traveled to Cybertron and found it transformed into Primus, but lying dormant; Sideways snarked that some clever guy had stolen all his power. He and Starscream tried to fight their way through the Autobots to the Omega Lock, but failed. Later, Sideways warped behind the Autobots' human friends, nabbed their three [[Mini-Con]] pals, and warped away. Angry, the children jumped into the portal window he left behind. {{storylink|Balance}}

[[File:Memory-Sidewaysandchildren.jpg|left|upright=1.1|thumb|WOULD YOU LIKE TO? WOULD YOU LIKE TO?]]

Sideways attached Jolt to some equipment in order to search his memories for data pertaining to location of [[Gigantion]], where the last Cyber Planet Key would be found. But all Sideways could extract was useless data that would take forever to examine, so he tried to watch some television to pass the time. No luck—they were jamming their own communications, so he couldn't watch ''[[Galactic Guardians]]'' or anything, so he turned on his [[Soundwave (G1)|stereo]] and began moving to the music. Starscream yelled at him for goofing off. Embarrassed, Sideways ran off to do repairs. Indeed, the memory download was taking too long, so Sideways decided it would be much quicker if they just hacked open Jolt's head, took what they wanted, and deleted the rest. The operation was interrupted by the children, and so Sideways left to deal with them. After a few slapstick adventures, including a faked hologram of Megatron telling Sideways to jump on one foot and call himself a "pretty lady", the children were able to escape with Sideways's key to the cell he was keeping the other two Mini-Cons in. Though those two were rescued, Sideways finally caught up with them, laughing maniacally and with evil intent. {{storylink|Memory (Cybertron)|Memory}} Jolt, whose rotors were now untied, was able to open a warpgate for himself and the others to escape through. Angered, Sideways warped away himself, and appeared again in front of the children and the Mini-Cons, telling him that he had put an energy field around the ship to prevent Jolt from pulling that trick again. The children and the Mini-Cons ran, but he threw one of his wing blades into the path ahead of them, blocking their escape. As Sideways mocked their attempts to distract him so they could make their getaway, [[Coby Hansen|Coby]] was able to communicate with the ship and spray [[fire-retardant foam]] over Sideways's head. They fled.

[[File:Escape-Sidewaysmeandrawing.jpg|right|thumb|upright=1.4|"A ''mouth?!'' This is libel!"]]

Later, when the children and the Mini-Cons had located the chamber in which Sideways was guarding, the one that was blocking communications from being sent out of ''Atlantis'', they remotely caused a malfunction in one of the engine rooms. Sideways ran out of the chamber and into the engine room, where he found a crude drawing of him on the wall. "Now that's just mean!" Next they dumped him down one of the garbage chutes, which Sideways laughed at. He'd just warp out of there! But he forgot that he'd disabled warping, so he was cast out of the ship into space. A piece of trash that followed him conked him on his head, knocking him out. ''Atlantis'' was soon found by the Autobots and Decepticons, and so Starscream set the ship to warp away. Just in time, the children and the Mini-Cons shot themselves out of the ship in two escape pods, but Sideways's floating body blocked the second pod from leaving the warp perimeter of the ship. Sideways and the second pod disappeared along with ''Atlantis''. {{storylink|Escape (episode)|Escape}}

Sideways returned to the helm of ''Atlantis'' with Starscream, as the distance between them and the planet [[Gigantion]], home to the final [[Cyber Planet Key]], quickly narrowed. But due to the work of [[Bud Hansen|Bud]], Jolt, and [[Reverb (Cybertron)|Reverb]], [[Jetfire (Armada)|Jetfire]], [[Wing Saber (Energon)|Wing Saber]], and the Decepticons were able to follow a trail to the ship, and so Sideways activated the ship's defenses while he navigated a warp jump away. But after they had jumped, Starscream felt the power of Primus, and so the ''Atlantis'' returned to Cybertron. After a battle between Starscream and Primus, Starscream was brutally defeated, so Sideways warped the ship away again with Starscream's body in tow. {{storylink|Titans}} Starscream was no worse for wear by the time Sideways had begun piloting ''Atlantis'' through a warp gate to another dimension where Gigantion was located, but the Autobots' ship, the ''[[Ogygia (Cybertron)|Ogygia]]'', wasn't far behind. ''Atlantis'' started lagging behind the Autobots when Bud and the Mini-Cons aboard began sabotaging its engines, much to the fury of Sideways and Starscream. {{storylink|Warp}}

Sideways managed to get ''Atlantis'' to Gigantion, but only after a crash-landing. Before too long, the ship was under attack from the Autobots. Starscream was still too drained from his fight with Primus, so Sideways was told to fight them himself, an order he grumbled loudly about once he was out of Starscream's range. He confronted Optimus Prime, merged with Wing Saber, and bemoaned their sneaky tactics. He was the one supposed to be pulling the strings! As Sideways was targeted by a volley of missiles, Optimus Prime told Sideways that he'd had enough of his tricks. After a prolonged fight, Sideways could do nothing better than to utter a pathetic "mother!" as Prime's final, most powerful attack was bearing in on him. Thankfully for Sideways, he was saved by Soundwave, who pushed him out of the way at the last second. Once they were safe, Sideways thanked Soundwave for the rescue. Soundwave reminded Sideways that "that's how we roll," and not to forget their ultimate purpose. {{storylink|City}}

[[File:Showdown-SoundwaveSidewaysstare.jpg|left|upright=1.67|thumb|Don't go towards the light, Sideways!]]

While the both of them were searching for the last Cyber Planet Key, they were discovered by the [[Cybertron Defense Team (Cybertron)|Cybertron Defense Team]]. Soundwave explained their backstory as survivors of Planet X and their vendetta against Gigantion. When the Autobots noted it was their own fault their planet was destroyed, Soundwave shrouded them in a thick black cloud while Sideways created virtual duplicates of himself. He managed to mess with Red Alert's head, but was tricked into revealing himself by Scattorshot after the clever technician dealt with the smog. In the end, the two Planet X natives were crushed under a falling tower. {{storylink|Challenge}}

Sideways and Soundwave didn't resurface until the Autobots were ready to leave Gigantion to their home dimension to repair the black hole. They challenged the Autobots, blocking their path out of the planet, for they wanted to ensure the black hole destroyed the galaxy. After fighting Optimus Prime to a standstill, they were interrupted by Starscream and Megatron, who were fighting several layers above them, glowing and pulsating with energy levels no one present had ever seen. Soundwave and Sideways wanted to escape, fearing their own destruction, but they lamented that if they didn't grab the Omega Lock then, they'd have failed at their mission. Both warped closer to the battle between Megatron and Starscream, and, reaching towards the tremendous energy that had built up during the Decepticons' battle, Sideways begged Soundwave to leave and save himself. Soundwave rejected this, because they were in this together. As Megatron and Starscream punched each other simultaneously, a wave of energy seemed to destroy both Planet X natives.

[[File:Beginning-SoundwaveSideways.jpg|right|thumb|upright=1.4|We're not dead! Neither is our planet! Weird.]]
Vector Prime noted that neither were likely destroyed in the conventional sense, but were blasted into another dimension. {{storylink|Showdown (Cybertron)|Showdown}} His analysis seemed to be correct; a little later, when Megatron witnessed a vision of Starscream—apparently reaching out through the [[fire dimension]] to mock him one final time—Sideways and Soundwave were both standing by the traitor's side. {{storylink|Unfinished}}

Sideways, Soundwave, and [[Laserbeak (Cybertron)|Laserbeak]] later cheered as they stood before an undestroyed Planet X, apparently having found an intact, parallel version of their homeworld in the dimension they had been transported to. {{storylink|Beginning}}

Always evasive about where his true loyalties lie, Sideways has been seen on battlefields the galaxy over, but not always on the same side. He has manipulated both factions like a game of cosmic chess, and chooses his words carefully. Neither Autobot nor Decepticon, he has always served just one master: [[Unicron]]. To these purposes, he assigned his Mini-Con companion, [[Crosswise (Armada)|Crosswise]] to infiltrate the Mini-Cons' Moonbase operations and send things awry. Crosswise was more of a wildcard than a full-on partner, unlike Sideways's other Mini-Con, [[Rook (Armada)|Rook]]. Rook was assigned to sow the real seeds of discontent amongst the Mini-Cons on the moon. {{storylink|More than Meets the Eye: Transformers: Armada|More than Meets the Eye}}

Sideways himself was first seen working on a secret desert rocket site, guarded by [[Skywarp (Armada)|Skywarp]] and [[Wheeljack (Armada)|Wheeljack]], which was designed to launch Megatron's [[Solar Scalpel]] laser system in orbit. {{storylink|Fire & Ice}} After the rocket was launched, he returned to Cybertron, and was present for the battle against Unicron... though what exact role he played in it is unknown. {{storylink|The End (Armada)|The End}}

{{toydesigner|[[Aaron Archer]] (Hasbro)}}

: First released in the second wave of Hasbro's ''[[Transformers: Armada (toyline)|Armada]]'' "Super-Con" (aka "Deluxe) class toys, Sideways transforms into a racing motorcycle of made-up model. As with most ''Armada'' toys, virtually all of his [[gimmick]]s are directly tied to Mini-Cons, and Sideways came with two of them: [[Rook (Armada)#Toys|Rook]] and [[Crosswise (Armada)#Toys|Crosswise]]. Rook and Crosswise can both ride on Sideways's cycle mode at the same time, held in place on his seat by small tab-slot connections, as can [[Mirror|their combined form]], which was designed to "grip" Sideways's handlebars. His tailpipes become arm-mounted [[Powerlinx]]-activated pressure-launch missile launchers.

: In robot mode, Sideways's head can be pushed back into his torso and replaced with Rook or Crosswise in their alternate head configurations. By sliding the Mini-Cons' arms down into Sideways's torso, each one pushes down plates behind Sideways's windshield-chest to reveal either an Autobot or Decepticon symbol. (You don't ''have'' to have the arms push into the torso if you don't want to, as the Mini-Cons attach in head mode just fine by having the arms positioned towards Sideways's back; arguably they fit ''better'' without the chestplates' springs pushing back up against the arms.) The initial run of Sideways toys had Rook reveal the Decepticon symbol and Crosswise reveal the Autobot brand. Later runs corrected this to match the faction-reveal gimmick as portrayed in the cartoon, with Rook forming the "Autobot" head and Crosswise the "Decepticon" head. (Crosswise was also altered to replace his red paint accents with a more Decepticon-y purple, making it easy to tell in-package which version of Sideways it was.)

: For his later [[TakaraTomy|Takara]] ''Legends of the Microns'' release, "Double Face" got a significant paint change, swapping the yellow and purple on his chest. This matches the cartoon model, which was based on the pre-release Hasbro deco (as seen on the Hasbro packaging). This version also -of course- retains the show-like Rook/Autobot-Crosswise/Decepticon symbol-reveal configuration.

: This mold was also used to make ''[[Transformers: Energon (toyline)|Energon]]'' [[Rapid Run (Energon)#Toys|Rapid Run]] (likely conceived as a [[Powerlinx]] redeco).

{{toydesigner|[[Takio Ejima]] (TakaraTomy)}}

: One of the ''very'' few "[[Planet X (Cybertron)|Planet X]]" -themed toys in ''[[Transformers: Cybertron (toyline)|Cybertron]]'', this version of Sideways transforms into a black and orange alien spacefighter. The center-back of his jet mode can rise up like a gun turret; plugging a [[Cyber Key]] into the back end of the assembly deploys two pairs of spring-loaded blade, plus covers the Autobot symbol in the top with a Decepticon badge. This assembly becomes a non-removable left-arm-mounted "shield" in robot mode. His wings can also detach from his ankles and be used as blades, with both [[5 mm post|pegging]] into his hands, either with one blade in each hand, or with both blades pegging into the top and bottom of a single hand, forming a double-bladed weapon.

: This toy was first released in Takara's ''Galaxy Force'' line as the different character [[Noisemaze (Cybertron)#Galaxy Force|Noisemaze]], featuring silver-chromed details on the wings. The Later Hasbro ''Cybertron'' "Sideways" replaced the chrome with silver paint, dropped some of the silver details on his key jack, and dropped some of the bronze paint on his "collar". The Hasbro version has also been slightly [[retool]]ed, rounding off his robot-mode head-horns, presumably [[for safety reasons]]. And of course, Sideways's Cyber Key has a [[Cyber Key Codes|Cyber Key Code]] stamped on the back the Takara version lacks.

: This mold was also used to make the Japanese DVD-[[exclusive]] [[Noisemaze Mass Production Type Version#Toys|Noisemaze Mass Production Type Version]] and ''[[Transformers: Universe (2008 toyline)|Universe]]'' [[Ratbat (G1)/toys#Universe (2008)|Ratbat]].

:Available in "Act 10" of Takara's ''[[Heroes of Cybertron|Super Collection Figure]]'' line, Double Face is a PVC figurine of his animation model. He was available in both full-color and pewter versions, with one of each packed in every case of twelve [[blindpacking|blindpacked]] boxes. He came with an extra head so that his appearance could be switched between his "normal" head and the "Decepticon" head. His appearance could ''not'' be switched out of its weird-looking ninja(?) pose, however, which makes him the tallest non-build-a-figure in the entire series.

: Act 10 is notable for using much softer plastic than the preceding nine Acts, which can lead to balance and peg-tearing issues. There is also a potential peg problem with the pewter versions, as the pegs may have been painted before being pushed into place. And with the softer plastic of Act 10, this makes a stuck peg even easier to tear off. Lightly shaving of the socket walls with a thin hobby knife should solve the issue... though with Double Face's minimal "posability" thanks to his odd stance, it's not very likely you'll be trying to move anything on him.

==Notes==
* Sideways was designed to be a "ninja" Transformer, with a yellow and purple color scheme based on a [[TakaraTomy|Takara]] employee's racing motorcycle.<ref>{{citesocial|quote=Sideways was a fun Ninja transfomer concept. His feature was unique in the franchise and those are the things I take pride in looking back. His colors are based of a Takara employee racing bike.|link=https://www.instagram.com/p/BuuHRJVH-0j/|name=Aaron Archer|site=Instagram|year=2019|month=03|day=07}}</ref>
* A 2001 Armada IP bible includes a bio of Sideways that notes he is comic relief after his Mini-Con is damaged and split in two, now acting as his "angel" and "devil" consciences who also bicker between themselves. Before the accident, Sideways was an aloof and mysterious ninja who turns into a police cycle. Obviously, this characterization didn't exactly pan out.
* While the positioning of ''Armada'' Sideways's head-handlebars in toy form is up to the owner, the cartoon consistently portrayed them as angled downwards.
[[File:Detection-SidewaysNoHat.jpg|right|thumb|He's back. From outer space.]]
* In ''Armada'', outside of the stock footage sequences showing Sideways putting his Mini-Con helmets on, his "bare" head was often colored in shades of gray similar to the Crosswise head, rather than the appropriate purple and yellow.
* In "[[Memory (Cybertron)|Memory]]", Sideways seemed to be a fan of the [[Galactic Guardians]], a superhero team who star in their own cartoon show. He also seemed to be a fan of Gloria Gaynor's "I Will Survive", as he sang the first few lyrics to himself before being interrupted by Starscream.
*For most of his ''Kre-O'' appearances, Sideways appeared only as a singular leg, making it a bit hard to tell if he was meant to be a Kreon version of the ''Armada'' Sideways. His identity wasn't confirmed until he finally showed up in full in his fifth appearance... only for the gag to continue when he ends up buried with only his leg showing.
*Like most non-toy robot Kreons in the ''Kre-O'' comics, Sideways is made from existing Kre-O parts. He makes use of the [[Hound (Kre-O)|Hound]] helmet, [[Starscream (Kre-O)|Starscream]] clip-on arm weapons, and what appears to be two additional Kreon arms attached to a backpack.

Space Mini-Con Team

2023-03-15T04:38:18Z

ScreamerFan: /* Armada */

{{factions|minicon}}
[[File:Bios card SPACE.jpg|upright=1.4|thumb|Hey, look. The Earth is blue and there's nothing we can do.]]

The '''Space Mini-Con Team''' is one of the most sought-after groups of [[Mini-Con]]s. Not simply because they are all strong warriors with zero-gravity operational skills, but mainly because the three combine to form the [[Requiem Blaster (Armada)|Requiem Blaster]], one of the legendary Mini-Con weapons whose destructive power maximums have yet to be calculated.

The Space Mini-Con Team is composed of...

*[[Astroscope]] the satellite.
*[[Payload (Armada)|Payload]] the rocket-transport truck.
*[[Sky Blast (Armada)|Sky Blast]] the rocket.

==Fiction==
===''Armada'' cartoon===
While Mini-Cons in general are reluctant to participate in the war between the [[Autobot]]s and the [[Decepticon]]s, the Space Team was particularly averse to fighting, acutely aware of the destructive potential of their combined form, the [[Requiem Blaster (Armada)|Requiem Blaster]], and spent quite a bit of time hiding from both sides, not wanting their power abused. {{storylink|Runaway}} Like their fellow Mini-Cons, the Space Team boarded the [[Exodus (Armada)|''Exodus'']] to flee the Great War only for the escape ship to come under attack from the [[Decepticon fleet]], its [[Transwarp Drive]] being damaged and crashing into [[Earth]]'s [[Moon (moon)|moon]]. {{storylink|First Encounter}} The three panels would be separated by a vast distance. While [[Astroscope]]'s panel fell onto the lunar surface, [[Payload (Armada)|Payload]]'s would crash onto a deserted island on the planet below and [[Sky Blast (Armada)|Sky Blast]]'s would remain in the primary hull, buried deep within a Terran mountain. {{storylink|Awakening (Armada)|Awakening}} {{storylink|Desperate}}

In the year [[2010]], Payload's dormant panel was found causing it to react with those of his teammates. The Mini-Cons who had aligned with the Autobots, along with their human allies, quickly found Sky Blast's panel, their base having been set up atop the wreck of the primary hull, and reawakened him only for him to run off. {{storylink|Awakening (Armada)|Awakening}} Once the Autobots and humans had helped Sky Blast tame his fear, he was [[Warp gate|warped]] to Payload's island to try and help [[Optimus Prime (Armada)/Cartoon continuity|Optimus Prime]]. Inspired by the heroism of the Autobots, Sky Blast sent out a pulse to his comrades who awoke, converging on him with the three combining into the Requiem Blaster, their combined power saving Optimus' life, albeit functioning as a makeshift retrorocket. {{storylink|Desperate}}

[[File:Arm30 nothingtoseehere.jpg|left|upright=1.1|thumb|Insert [[Pretender]] joke here.]]

With the deed done however, the Space Team made plans to flee the war once again, settling on a farm outside [[Central City (Earth)|Central City]] with the help of the human children. Their haven was short lived, however, for [[Thrust (Armada)|Thrust]] soon tracked them down only for Optimus Prime to save them where he declared that the Mini-Cons would not be forced to fight if they didn't want to. {{storylink|Runaway}}

While the Autobots were out on a mission, [[Smokescreen (Armada)|Smokescreen]] tried to befriend the trio only for [[Megatron (Armada)/Cartoon continuity|Megatron]] to break into the base and capture the Mini-Cons. Forcing them to combine, he used the Requiem Blaster to gun down the Autobot. {{storylink|Sacrifice}} Back on the moon, Megatron locked the trio into their combined form, granting him full use of the Blaster. When [[Starscream (Armada)/Cartoon continuity|Starscream]], having been a pawn in the scheme to capture the trio, attacked his leader, Megatron opened fire only to find that the [[Star Saber (Armada)|Star Saber]] could counter the Requiem Blaster. {{storylink|Regeneration (Armada)|Regeneration}} When Starscream defected to the Autobots, he provided them with the intel to attack the Decepticon base. Megatron unleashed the Blaster in battle only for its effects to blocked by the [[Skyboom (Armada)|Skyboom Shield]]. {{storylink|Rescue}}

Soon enough, Thrust had managed to convince Starscream to defect back to the Decepticons who brought with him the Star Saber and Skyboom Shield. {{storylink|Crack (episode)|Crack}} After the two teams had been mode-locked, the three Mini-Con groups were made the primary power source for the ''[[Hydra Cannon]]''. {{storylink|Threaten}}

When both factions returned to Cybertron, the mode-locked Space Team would find themselves used as Megatron's primary weapon, being used to gun down [[Nemesis Prime (Armada)|Nemesis Prime]], {{storylink|Puppet}} and later to destroy a flotilla of Autobot ships. {{storylink|Uprising (Armada)|Uprising}} Along with the Skyboom Shield and the Star Saber, the Requiem Blaster would be stolen by Thrust, now revealed as a [[Herald of Unicron]], who used them to reawaken the Chaos Bringer. {{storylink|Dash (episode)|Dash}} {{storylink|Drift (episode)|Drift}}

Brought to [[Unicron]]'s core, the three teams reawakened their creator before Optimus Prime and Megatron—now reborn as Galvatron—roused the nine from their slumber. The first act of the Space Team was, quite ironically, to recombine back into the Requiem Blaster so Optimus could inflict catastrophic damage to Unicron's interior. {{storylink|Origin}} When Galvatron then challenged Optimus to a final duel, the [[Prime (rank)|Prime]] told everyone to head back to [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]] while he held off his foe. {{storylink|Mortal Combat}}

:The Space Team was first released as a three-pack in the ''[[Transformers: Armada (toyline)|Armada]]'' line. The three toys can combine into the Requiem Blaster, which can be held by most Transformers that use 5mm peg-holes, or can be attached via [[Powerlinx]] plugs. The Takara release features slightly darker red plastic than the Hasbro release.

:The entire team was completely re-cast as new molds as part of the second wave of [[Kabaya]]'s [[Change Micron]] series, individually-available versions of the Team.

:This mold-set was used to make the [[Deep Space Mini-Con Team]].

[[File:MegatronLiveLaughLove.jpg|thumb|350px|"LOOK AT THIS PHOTOGRAPH! Every time I do, it makes me laugh."]]

'''Megatron''' ''used'' to be the cruel and merciless leader of the Decepticons, who fought against [[Optimus Prime (ES)|Optimus Prime]] and his [[Autobot|Autobots]] across both [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]] and [[Earth]].

These days, however, he’s reformed. He now works ''with'' Optimus and his Autobots, as well as [[G.H.O.S.T.]], to protect the people of Earth, human and Cybertronian alike. However, that doesn’t mean he follows Optimus blindly. Megatron cares deeply for his former troops, and does NOT appreciate G.H.O.S.T.’s treatment of them. He’s trying to make the best of a bad situation, in the name of peace, but there’s still a bit of tension between the two leaders.

Adopted by the Malto family, '''Thrash Malto''' is a Terran, one of the first of a new generation of Transformers born on Earth along with his sister [[Twitch]]. Closest to [[Mo Malto|Mo]], the two of them are fast friends, goofing off and playing games together. Thrash would do anything for her, and even his motorcycle-and-sidecar alternate mode was inspired by her old bike. While his connection is strongest with Mo, the four siblings' emotions are all connected through the mysterious [[cyber-sleeves]].

While fun-loving and carefree may be positive traits much of the time, they are also Thrash's greatest flaws. He's easily bored, hates rules, and has a tendency to end up doing the opposite of what he's told. He means well, but it can leave his newfound family frustrated and picking up the pieces of the mess he's inadvertently created.

Transformers: Armada (toyline)

2022-10-22T02:42:48Z

ScreamerFan: /* Max-Con Class */

{{nav-armada}}

[[File:Armadatoy-HotShot.jpg|thumb|300px|right|Hot Shot with Jolt]]

'''''Transformers: Armada''''' marked a fresh start for the [[Transformers brand]], a reinvention that introduced a whole new universe and backstory for the robots in disguise. The [[Franchises|franchise]] also introduced a new faction, the [[Mini-Con]]s, the line's most distinctive element, as ''every'' larger toy included one or more Mini-Con partners.

The line was a hit with kids; the simpler, cleaner transformations made the toys more accessible than prior lines, plus the wealth of action [[gimmick]]s gave every toy more to ''do''. The numerous Mini-Cons in particular proved popular with fans and children alike, and have continued on into many subsequent toylines. It did so well out of the gate that the line had to be expanded beyond its initial offerings pretty quickly, and began the next four-ish years of direct sequels, an era that would come to be known as the "[[Unicron Trilogy]]".

{{TOCclear}}

==Overview==
[[File:Arm-toy Demolishor.jpg|upright=1.66|thumb|right|Demolishor, packed to the gills with gimmicks.]]

The toyline marked a sharp change of design direction from the intricate, sometimes frustrating complexity found in the prior ''[[Beast Wars: Transformers (toyline)|Beast Wars]]'', ''[[Beast Machines: Transformers (toyline)|Beast Machines]]'', and [[Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2001 toyline)|''Robots in Disguise'']] lines (that last one being a particular point of contention with parents). The early offerings in particular are blocky, easy to transform, sturdy and colorful. [[Articulation]] tends to be reduced, sacrificed to keep price down in light of the need to add a Mini-Con partner and multiple intricate [[gimmick]]s to every mold. [[Ball joint]]s largely disappeared from the non-Mini-Con toys in favor of permanently-joined swivels. The aesthetics of larger robots hearken back more to the blocky concepts of [[The Transformers (toyline)|Generation 1]], while the Mini-Cons tend to be more experimental, with odd facial designs and non-standard limbs.

Each larger toy features a "central" gimmick which can only be activated by attaching —aka "[[Powerlinx]]ing"— a Mini-Con to the appropriate hardpoint; the socket on each Mini-Con has a central pin that presses a recessed button within the hardpoint. Though most transformation schemes are simple, many of the "Powerlinx"-activated gimmicks are quite complex and innovative, such as [[Hot Shot (Armada)/toys#Armada|Hot Shot]]'s "axelzooka", [[Scavenger (Armada)#Toys|Scavenger]]'s stompy-stompy action, and [[Megatron (Armada)/toys#Armada|Megatron]]'s turret-mounted twin-missile launcher. Electronic lights and sounds also became standard on nearly all toys larger than Deluxe/Super-Con. Most non-Mini-Con toys also have multiple hardpoints that didn't activate any gimmicks, but as many Mini-Cons have working missile launchers or third "weapon modes" or other combat-style gimmicks or can be oriented to ''resemble'' guns and blades and so on, these hardpoints allow robots to be kitted out with all kinds of gear, a play pattern that would be revived in later lines like the Takara version of ''[[Transformers: Prime (toyline)#Super Robot Lifeform Transformers Prime (Arms Micron)|Transformers: Prime]]'' with its [[Arms Micron]]s and the ''[[War for Cybertron Trilogy (toyline)|War for Cybertron Trilogy]]'' with the "[[C.O.M.B.A.T. System]]" and its successors.

As with ''Robots in Disguise'', the back end of the series featured same-character [[redeco]]es of toys in "powered up" modes, and this practice of heavy mold-re-use would continue on into the future to combat the ever-rising costs of production. The line was further bulked up by redecoes/[[retool]]s of several ''Beast Wars'' [[Transmetal]] toys, reworked to be Mini-Con compatible (despite a lack of any kind of action gimmicks), as early sales and subsequent retailer demand exceeded expectations, and they had to get ''something'' out relatively quick.

[[File:Theunicronbattles logo.jpg|thumb|upright=1.66|right]]

Towards the end, the line veered in an unexpected direction, with the introduction of the massive [[Unicron/toys#Armada|Unicron]], a ''huge'' toy based on the character from ''[[The Transformers: The Movie]]'', and arguably the greatest wish-fulfillment yet offered to fans from Hasbro, as no toy of this monstrosity had yet seen release. To promote this massive toy, the ongoing storylines of both cartoon and comic changed direction to feature the character as their central plot element, and the toyline itself gained a [[subline imprint]] promoting him in "'''The Unicron Battles'''". The initial wave of this [[subline imprint]] used the original red and blue ''Armada'' packaging with an added "The Unicron Battles" logo sticker, whereas the second version sported a new color scheme in orange, blue and black that had the "Unicron Battles" logo as an integral part of its packaging design for the larger toys. Some toys ended up being available in all three packaging variants.

''Armada'' saw a bit of a price jump (production costs again), as the $20 "Max-Con" size replaced the $15 Mega class of past lines, while the $25 "Giga-Cons" replaced the $20 Ultras. This was offset by the fact that ''Armada'' toys overall tended to be somewhat more bulky and massive than their predecessors, plus contained much more intricate internal mechanisms and electronic features as well.

{{-}}

==Development==
''Armada'' was driven by [[Brian Goldner]] wanting a collectible play toyline as seen in Japan and wanting to bring [[Takara]] in as co-developer. Takara, for their part, was extremely eager to come in as a co-developer on ''Transformers'' again to have some control on what the new toys would be and make sure they were commercial for the Japanese market as well. They brought in a horde of toy concept ideas that would shape the line, and a small team of Hasbro and Takara staffers were given leeway to develop the new idea.<Ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vNgWvNmMJfE Youtube: "The Toy Armada: Transformers Armada Part 1 Behind The Scenes!"] Dec 14, 2021, 10:10 in</ref>

One early idea from Takara was individual Mini-Cons would work at unlocking features on specific Autobots and Decepticons, rather than working for all of them. [[Aaron Archer]] argued that American kids would just jam any Mini-Con into the slot and get frustrated it wasn't working.<Ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vNgWvNmMJfE Youtube: "The Toy Armada: Transformers Armada Part 1 Behind The Scenes!"] Dec 14, 2021, 19:29 to 20:04</ref>

==Hasbro ''Armada'' toyline==
===Mini-Con 3-packs===
Mini-Cons were sold in carded three-packs at the Basic/Scout price point, each team defined by a particular gimmick or theme. Though only slightly larger than their closest precedent, the [[Micromaster]]s, they generally featured greatly improved articulation, complexity, and originality of design.

{{Note|The Tiny Tin Mini-Cons were only available in ''Armada'' packaging in Europe. In the United States, they were instead sold under the ''[[Transformers: Universe (2003 toyline)|Universe]]'' line, which didn't exist in Europe. Meanwhile, the red version of Powerlinx Thrust was ''almost'' a European exclusive, since it was also available as a "[[USA Edition]]" in Japan (see below).}}

==Takara ''Legends of the Microns'' toyline==
[[TakaraTomy|Takara]]'s take on ''Armada'', hitting stores a bit later than the Hasbro version, has some small but significant differences, largely in the decos. With a closer tie to the [[Transformers: Armada (cartoon)|animation]], the toys had their colors tweaked to make them closer to their animation counterparts. This ranges from the small and subtle to completely different color schemes.

Takara also went ''nuts'' with the Mini-Cons. All but one of the three-pack teams got "[[Exdimensions]]" redecoes at normal retail, and some of the earlier molds got multiple redecoes as limited-edition store-[[exclusive]] promotional giveaways.

*A redeco of the Street Speed Team seen at [[OTFCC 2003]]—one-off "color shifts" of the Japanese Street Speed Micron Overdrive Edition—was intended for mass release, but never saw the light of day.
*Redecos of the Adventure and Space Teams surfaced from China, but were likewise not released.
*At OTFCC 2003, it was announced that the more show-accurate Japanese version of Wheeljack and Wind Sheer would be released in the North American line as a running change. That never happened.
*Likewise, the red version of Powerlinx Thrust was supposed to hit North American shores as a running change, but never did... although it DID see release in Japan, Europe, and Israel(!).

==Post-''Armada'' releases==
Though it does not quite (yet) have the nostalgia-pull of older series, ''Armada'' has nonetheless had a number of toys released based on its characters, and even several all-new characters put into its universe since the Unicron Trilogy closed up shop. (Obviously, we're not counting toys from the direct-sequel series here.)

==Notes==
* According to [[Aaron Archer]] during his stint as ORSON, the Armada Autobots and Decepticons had intentionally different design aesthetics. The Autobots were designed to be symmetrical with clean lines and detailing, while the Decepticons had asymmetrical sculpts and details to invoke a more foreboding and battle-worn feel. A good example of this would be [[Hot Shot (Armada)/toys#ArDx1|Hot Shot]] versus [[Cyclonus (Armada)#Armada|Cyclonus]].
* The official Hasbro press releases for ''Armada'' used the pricepoint titles from the ''Beast Wars'' era - Deluxe, Mega and Ultra - instead of Super-Con, Max-Con and Giga-Con, the designations specifically created for the toyline. Confusingly, one press release<ref>http://groups.google.com/group/alt.toys.transformers/msg/b11879ad57a742ca?hl=en</ref> even referred to the "Mega Figure Assortment" as consisting of "MAXCON figures"...
* While early toys in Hasbro's ''Armada'' line used insignias without painted backgrounds, starting with some shipments of Sideways and all later waves, the insignias received painted backgrounds like Takara's versions.<ref>{{TFW2005|Up until now, the insignias have been painted with no background detail. Starting with some shipments of Sideswipe and all figures in later waves, Hasbro's Armada insignias will be painted with background detail much like Takara's Micron Densetsu take of these molds.|https://news.tfw2005.com/2003/03/11/orsons-world-news-311-55|Tim Formas|2003|03|11}}</ref>
*There were two different types of "Unicron Battles" packaging: The first version was simply the original red and blue Armada packaging with an added "The Unicron Battles" logo sticker, whereas the second version sported a new color scheme in black, orange and blue that had the "Unicron Battles" logo as an integral part of its packaging design for the larger toys. Some toys were available in all three packaging variants.
* For the Japanese version of the line, Takara took the unusual step of picking and choosing [[package art]] from the Hasbro line, with just about all of [[Don Figueroa]] and [[Guido Guidi]]'s art being carried over, while the rest was replaced with new work. No explanation has ever been given, although most of the replaced art originally depicted the character incorrectly (Megatron's treads being mounted on his back instead of his shoulders) or just very inaccurately (Jetfire's everything).
