| This article is about the Armada Mini-Con. For the Generation 1 Autobot subgroup, see Jumpstarter. |
- Jumpstart is a Mini-Con from the Armada portion of the Unicron Trilogy continuity family.
A sputtering colle *bzzzt* *krakle* LEE IACCOCA WEARS TIGHTIE WHITIES!
A sputtering collection of loose wires prone to emitting electric shocks without warning, Jumpstart is not a well Mini-Con. Thanks to his own powers blowing his mind like a fuse, all he can manage to say these days are sentence fragments and random non-sequiturs. The other members of the Red Mini-Con Team know to give the sparking Jumpstart a wide berth, but that doesn't help anyone he Powerlinxes with from getting the occasional jolt.
Despite his *bzzzt* *krakle* NOOOOO SPRINGS! Heh heh heeeh!
Despite his erratic nature, Jumpstart is quite useful in battle, transforming into a powerful electrical blaster whose bolts can leap from enemy to enemy.[1]
