An Astro-Beam is a means of temporarily teleporting from one location to another.

Fiction

[edit]

TransTech

[edit]

Renegade GoBot Bug Bite brought an Astro-Beam with him on his trans-dimensional mission to find the cause of his universe's impending doom. When he and his compatriots accidentally found themselves on the Cybertron inhabited by TransTech, he surreptitiously used the device to enter Axiom Nexus undetected. He later traded the device for a black-ops pass enabling him to continue to his original destination unimpeded.

Notes

[edit]
  • The Astro-Beam ("Astrobeam" on the original animation model) made its debut in the Challenge of the GoBots cartoon. The Renegade theft of the device touched off the events of the five-part pilot of that show, and it continued to feature prominently throughout. It functioned exactly as described, allowing a temporary teleport that reverted itself after forty-eight hours if not manually reversed sooner.
