Kickflip is an Autobot-allied Mini-Con from the Energon portion of the Unicron Trilogy continuity family.
Gleefully flipping you off.

Before the experimental combiner process she and her teammates in the Extreme Competition Team underwent, Kickflip was a dedicated soldier. Now, she's more concerned with herself than saving lives. Extremely bratty, the only one able to keep her in line is Mudbath, and even then, she'll go back to doing whatever she wants.

Along with Mudbath and Breakage, she combines to form Heavy Metal.

  • Filter (Micron Booster, 2004)
  • Booster ID number: 12
A redeco of the Energon Perceptor component Grindor, Filter transforms into a Cybertronic hovercraft and can also form the legs of the combined robot Frenzy.
Filter was available only in the third Micron Booster assortment, in a blind-packed, individual box. This assortment was exclusive to Lawson stores.
This mold was also used to make Screw.

Notes

[edit]
  • Super Link Filter was released in Japan with no bio info whatsoever. On March 16, 2007, the Transformers Collectors' Club published a Micro-Sized Mini-Con Profiles On-Line! feature to the members-only part of their website, re-christening the character "Kickflip" and assigning her a personality and gender where the original toy had not. For TFWiki's purposes, having no stated gender before being designated female excludes her from being what we term a "variable gender character".

Foreign names

[edit]
  • Japanese: Filter (フィルター Firutā)
