| The name or term "Strafe" refers to more than one character or idea. For a list of other meanings, see Strafe (disambiguation). |
- Strafe is an Autobot from the movie continuity family (via the 2010 Transformers toyline.)
While Strafe is usually a pretty nice guy, other Autobots tend to keep away from him, especially during battle. This is because he's way too easily startled, and when scared, responds by attacking everything around him until he burns himself out. Nothing is safe around Strafe, not even sizzling bacon, for any sound can set this Autobot off in a terribly violent way.

[edit]In Tyran 208.28 Gamma, Strafe was one of the Autobots who responded to the summons to refuge on Earth following the stranding of the bulk of the Decepticon forces on Cybertron.

- Strafe (Voyager Class, 2011)
- Known designers: Andrew Scribner (deco artist)
- A redeco of the Revenge of the Fallen Voyager Class Mindwipe, Reveal the Shield Strafe transforms into a stealth fighter jet similar to an F-117 Nighthawk. He has two flip-out swords/daggers under his arms that he can deploy to use as weapons. As part of his transformation, bending his wings back in robot mode activates a Mech Alive gear-driven feature where the tips of the wings retract and four small blades reveal themselves along the edge of the wing. Strafe's paint app budget went into the very large Autobot insignia he wears across his wings, which is quite possibly the largest insignia ever on a Transformers toy. As part of the Reveal the Shield subline imprint, Strafe features a rubsign. Y'know, just in case his wings didn't make his faction clear enough.
- Strafe's vehicle mode, like the other toys using the same mold, can be perched upon by Skystalker, Sunspot, Laserbeak, and the exclusive Smokescreen. Except they're all Decepticons, so it would be terribly inappropriate fraternization.
Notes
[edit]- When Strafe's bio went up on the official website, it used the adjective spastic to describe him. This was later changed to "twitchy." Hmmmm.
- Funny how this guy named "Strafe" has no guns or anything.
