Tyroxian space transport
- The Tyroxian space transports are starships from the Marvel portion of the Generation 1 continuity family.
Tyroxian space transports are spaceships that appear to be organically grown rather than mechanical in nature, though they still require at least one Tyroxian to pilot them. Compared to smaller craft they are fast and powerful, but are easily defeated when confronted with a larger enemy. They may be a life form in their own right.
Fiction
[edit]Marvel The Transformers comics
[edit]Tyroxian space transport appeared exclusively in the UK portion of the Marvel Comics continuity.
Two of these craft pursued the Autobot Hot Rod's shuttle as he attempted to escape from Tyroxia. They appeared to be playing with him, taking potshots until he ran out of energy, until Kup — watching in his own ship nearby — overcame his combat fatigue and shot them down. Kup's Story!
Notes
[edit]- The design of the Tyroxian space transport appears to have been influenced by the Imperial Carriers from [[wikipedia:{{#if:|:}}X-Bomber|{{#if:Star Fleet|Star Fleet|X-Bomber}}]].
