Mixmaster (Movie)

This article is about the non-screen drones from the 2007 movie franchise. For the on-screen Revenge of the Fallen Constructicon, see Mixmaster (ROTF){{#switch:{{#sub: Mixmaster (ROTF)|-1}}|!=|.=|?=|.}} For a list of other meanings, see Mixmaster (disambiguation).
Mixmasters are mass-produced Autobot/Decepticon units from the Transformers portion of the movie continuity family.
Shoulda been "Block Head", but nooooooooooooooooooooo.

Mixmaster units are large machines that convert into cement mixer trucks. Both the Autobot and Decepticon armies make use of these drones. They are very slow, but very determined, heavily-armored and heavily-armed to boot, making them very dangerous opponents. They have yet to demonstrate any "beats", although it would be reasonable to assume that they are "fresh".

Sometimes there are lots of him.

On both sides.

Oh, and that Constructicon with the same name name has absolutely nothing to do with him.

Games

[edit]

Battle for the Allspark

[edit]
Mixmaster was used as the basis for a chassis available to players as their combatant for the Battle for the Allspark game. Units using this body came in two variations. Autobot-aligned units had a helmet and facemask that vaguely resembled Optimus Prime, while the Decepticon-aligned units had the single-lens design seen in other film-related media.
Mixmaster units can be either Autobot (top) or Decepticon (bottom). Almost as confusing as in the cartoon.

Mixmaster units had unstoppable attack power, good defense, but little speed. Battle for the Allspark

Transformers: The Game (console)

[edit]

Mixmasters are rarely-seen foes; Decepticon units are dark green, while Autobot units are yellow. They are shielded against artillery (they don't even stop to block, they just keep coming) and shrug off melee attacks as well; the only way to damage them is to knock them down by throwing something at them or ramming them in vehicle mode, then picking the drone itself up and hurling it. They are armed with heavy rocket launchers with a slow rate of fire, but nasty punch. Along with Longarm, they are one of the hardest and most annoying drones.

A Decepticon Mixmaster drone waited for Ironhide in Tranquility when Jazz was being hounded by both Sector Seven forces and the Decepticons. Both sides sent Mixmasters after each other in Mission City, and a few popped up in "sub-missions". Transformers The Game (console)

Notes

[edit]
  • Artist Ken Christiansen designed Mixmaster, along with the other new characters in the Transformers - The Game and Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen - The Game video games.
  • The Mixmaster drone was one of two types of drone (the other being Scrapper) whose names were put up for voting on the game's web-site during development.
  • He is still not affected by firearms even in vehicle form.
  • Late into the game, the drones faces changed to from the Autobot's distinctive two-eyed ninja look to the Decepticon's single eyed photo receptor style, even during Decepticon missions.
  • Mixmaster is the only one of the seven 2007 game drone designs that never received a toy. Swindle, Dropkick, Payload, Longarm and Dreadwing all got their own figures in the 2007 toyline, and while Scrapper never got a toy directly representing his character, his design would later inspire Dirt Boss (and subsequently his Deadlift repaint) in the 2009 Revenge of the Fallen toyline. Considering the relative obscurity of this particular Mixmaster (as well as the existence of a more popular movieverse namesake), it is not very likely that we'll be getting a take on this design in more recent toylines like Studio Series anytime soon either, meaning that the Mixmaster-sized hole in the collections of those with an interest for this particular septet of characters is likely to remain vacant for a very long time.
