- Moonrock is an Autobot Micromaster from the toyline portion of the Generation 1 continuity family.
Moonrock is the archetype of "space cadet". Laid-back, mellow, and completely lacking in ambition, his primary goals seem to revolve around philosophy, and finding the Autobots' "place in the universe". (Literally and figuratively.) As a result, despite his apparent intelligence and strength, some of his teammates aren't absolutely certain whether they can actually trust him to do his job, especially if Missile Master wasn't around to constantly tell him what to do. Small wonder, given he dislikes fighting, and is usually so laid back that despite forming the front end of a missile transport with his boss, Moonrock's happy to let him the driving for both of them.[1]
His combiner partner on the Astro Squad is Missile Master.
