Blue Big Convoy (ブルー
When a battle between dimensional interlopers Star Convoy and Ultra Megatron came to a city on the Blue Planet, Blue rallied the Blue Order to defend the fallen hero. Blue put up a good fight against the Angolmois-empowered Megatron, but was left drained when Megatron stole energy from his Matrix.Super Megatron comic 3 Super Megatron comic 4 This gave Straxus, jealous of Blue for being chosen by Brightes, the opening he needed to activate a rage program implanted within the Order by his twin Straxus. As the Blue Order tore itself apart, Blue used the Matrix Sword to take his own life before he could harm his comrades.
Having taken the Matrix Sword as a trophy, the traitorous Straxus used energy from Blue's lingering spark within the Matrix Sword, to create a clone, Convobat. After evolved Order drone Magna Convoy retrieved a broken Matrix Sword from Straxus, Cybertron Magna Convoy prequel comic Blue's essence within the sword appeared to Magna Convoy and entrusted him with the "Blue Order", a responsibility to guide and support his clone, before fading away. Cybertron Magna Convoy
Legends comic
Blue Big Convoy was a Convoy Type, a Transformer created by Vector Sigma in the image of Optimus Primal, but unlike his peers he did not believe this earned him a spot on the Convoy Council and expected that the inequality caused by glorifying Convoys would eventually lead to rebellion. He believed in peace between Maximals and Predacons and fought many battles to defend that peace together with his son, Big Junior, until he fell defending Junior during a battle with mysterious foes. On his deathbed, he taught his son that a Convoy isn't something special you're born as, but something you become when you choose to fight to protect others. Asking Junior to take his left arm for himself, he dubbed him "Big Convoy" before passing away. Bonus Edition Vol. EX
