  • Swerve with Roadhandler (Deluxe, 2004)
Part of the seventh wave of Universe Deluxes, Roadhandler is a redeco of the Mini-Con Incinerator, transforming into a Cybertronic dragster. In this mode, he can fit under the spoiler of his larger pack-in partner Swerve's mold, activating its "flight mode".
This mold was also used to make Wrench.

Notes

[edit]
  • Roadhandler's Mini-Con status was debatable. Though he uses a Mini-Con mold and retains the molded sigil, nowhere on his packaging is he noted as being a Mini-Con; he is only marked with an Autobot sigil. On the other hand, almost all Mini-Cons were marked with the Autobot or Decepticon sigils and were never referred to as Mini-Cons... and he has no bio information to say he's not one. When he finally appeared in fiction via Ask Vector Prime over a decade later, however, he was referred to in the context of Unicron Trilogy Mini-Con partners, all but cementing his status as one.

Foreign names
