- The Battlefield Headquarters is an Autobot Micromaster vehicle from the Generation 1 continuity family.
The mighty Battlefield Headquarters dominates the field of combat. Under the command of Full-Barrel and Overflow, this Transformer-scaled rig splits and transforms into two space-worthy fighter craft, each armed with multiple lasers and rockets. These two crafts can also combine into an orbital space station.
