- Midship is a Unicron-allied Mini-Con from the Legends of the Microns portion of the Unicron Trilogy continuity family.

He's incredibly loud, rude, and violent, a stark contrast to his teammate Top Gear's quieter form of menace. You can't help but hear Midship coming, but even so, it's probably too late anyway.
