Ashtray was among the Junkions that attacked the Autobots stranded on their planet, until the arrival of Hot Rod's party. The young Autobot's offering of the universal greeting and an energon goodie was well received by the Junkions, who enthusiastically repeated the greeting.

During the fight against Unicron, Ashtray made repairs on the Minnow after it had been blasted by the Chaos Bringer. The Transformers: The Movie

Notes

[edit]
Left: the model published in the Generations guidebook.
Right: the model published in the The Ark series books.
  • Ashtray was never named in any fiction; his name (and the names of many other Junkions) comes from character designer's notes, revealed in Transformers: The Complete Ark.
  • Due to the rarity of the Toei Junkion character models, which have only surfaced in the Generations guidebooks as tiny, blurry and very rough line art, the model that was used for The Ark was traced/redrawn by Bill Forster to make it more presentable for the final publication. This resulted in a lot of the original details getting lost; namely the dark shadows on the wheels, the shoulder vents and his visor. A lot of the curved edges of his body had also been made into straight edges.
  • Ashtray's character model features the same arms as Junkyard, HAZMAT, and Wasteoid Gamma. His legs are similar to Junkyard, Greasestain, HAZMAT's, but without the broad, circular feet.
