- Bound Rogue is an Autobot from the Robotmasters portion of the Generation 1 continuity family.

Bound Rogue (バウンドローグ Baundo Rōgu) is the Autobots' premier energy scout, and he takes that duty above all else. He's a young and energetic fighter to be sure, and good with double-blaster action... but he's really keen on finding new energy sources. He'll even abandon a battle if he spots a new source nearby.
Bound Rogue was originally a "normal" fully-mechanical Autobot, but was mutated by Beast Megatron into the animal form he has now.

Bound Rogue and Mirage were beaten up by Smokesniper and Gigant Bomb. Luckily, Optimus Prime and others came to their rescue. The Victory Warriors Enter!!

Bound Rogue was part of a group of Autobots who aided the city of Athens in preparing for the Olympics. When Smokesniper and Gigant Bomb attacked, Bound Rogue and the other Autobots were able to intimidate them with their numbers and make the Decepticons clean up their mess. Robotmasters Vol. 1
Toys
Robotmasters

- Bound Rogue (Basic, 2004)
- Japanese ID number: RM-07
- Accessories: Tail/"Coolant Gun", "Type 93" rifle
- A redeco of the Beast Wars Snarl/Tasmania Kid mold, Bound Rogue transforms into a large "tasmanian devil" (the resemblance to the real thing being vague at best). By holding the toy by its tail in beast mode and pulling the trigger, his body leaps forward in a spring-loaded lunging attack. In robot mode, the tail becomes an arm-mounted (non-firing) "coolant gun" weapon. Unique to this release of the toy is the chromed "Type 93" blaster-weapon, which really doesn't mount on his arm in any useful position.
Notes
- Bound Rogue's coloration is almost identical to a Beast Wars II contest-prize redeco of Tasmania Kid. They both end up looking a lot like Sonic the Hedgehog.
- Bound Rogue's name is almost certainly a reference to the "Honor-Bound Rogue", a character archetype in literary theory of which Han Solo (and thus Springer) is a classic representative. It may also be a pun on the Tasmanian devil's jumping ability.
