| The name or term "Breakdown" refers to more than one character or idea. For a list of other meanings, see Breakdown (disambiguation). |
- Breakdown is a Velocitronian from the IDW portion of the Generation 1 continuity family.
Conjunx Endura with Knock Out, Breakdown is heavier and slower than what his speed-focused people on Velocitron idealize. Since his world's entry into the Council of Worlds, he has become part of cross-planet endeavors that his Conjunx has gotten involved in. Unlike Knock Out, he goes about his life with more humility towards others.
