Just ''who'' Sharp Edge is remains something of a mystery.  He never appeared in, or was even ''referenced'' in, any of the ''[[Operation Combination (franchise)|Operation Combination]]'' [[Operation Combination (story page)|story pages]], the primary fiction supporting the series.  He and his cohorts are mentioned in the [[Generation 1 cartoon timeline (Japan)/src#After 2025|Japanese Generation 1 cartoon timeline]] published with the ''[[Kiss Players (manga)|Kiss Players]]'' manga, meaning they had to have originated from ''somewhere''.  Presumably, he was referenced by name in the telephone audio adventures promoted by [[TakaraTomy|Takara]] at the time, which are confirmed to be where most of the information regarding [[Scrash]] originates.

As for why a character such as Sharp Edge was advertised in these audio adventures when he had no known toy on the market is also unknown.  It could be that he and all of Scrash's random minions were simply alternate names for the [[Jet Corps]], but that is unconfirmed.

This article is about the Operation Combination Decepticon. For the Beast Wars Neo Maximal, see Sharp Edge.
Sharpedge is a Decepticon from the Operation Combination portion of the Generation 1 continuity family.
You can't see me!


This character has no official visual representation in any Transformers product or media... yet, at least.

Led by Scrash, Sharpedge (シャープエッジ Shāpuejji) is an evil Decepticon with designs on conquering the Earth. He may be pointy, so look out.

Fiction

[edit]

Operation Combination

[edit]

Commanded by Scrash, Sharpedge joined Deathplay, Darkfly, and Flashwing in a bid to conquer Earth. Introducing the Destron Jet Corps

Who are Scrash's goons?

[edit]

Sharpedge's boss Scrash famously never personally appears in the Operation Combination story pages, the primary fiction supporting the series. Sharpedge and his squaddies Deathplay, Flashwing, and Darkfly are even more mysterious, mentioned only in the Operation Combination portion of the Transformers Telephone series of audio serials, itself largely lost media aside from brief summaries supplied by TakaraTomy in various guidebooks.

However, the very specific scenario of what appears to be an unaccounted-for quintet of jets has led to speculation from the remaining direct witnesses of the audio serial that Scrash and his four subordinates would have been redecoes of the Aerialbot molds, in the vein of Operation Combination reusing the Combaticon and Protectobot molds.[1] The only official word on the matter, a glossary entry for "Predator" in Transformers Generations, is that none of the five were meant to be part of the Jet Corps.[2] Ultimately, the original intention for Scrash and his subordinates has been lost to time.
