Video Games will rot your brain. With lasers.

Video games rot your brain, kids. At least, this one will. Power Up VT6 can scramble and delete data in nearby machines easily, and his screen can send bad things into your head. Once an ordinary handheld game system given life by the AllSpark, he now lives to cause trouble and sow discord.

Fiction

Toy bios

Power Up and Zoom Out 25X have teamed up to form the self-designated "Brain Scrambler Team" and screw with human children for kicks. Zoom Out manufactures embarrassing or incriminating videos for parents to find while Power Up scrambles the poor kid's brains so they can't defend themselves. This accomplishes nothing for the Decepticon cause really, but is good dickish fun for these two. Brain Scrambler Team toy bio

Toys

Transformers (2007)

  • Power Up VT6 (Real Gear Robots, 2007)
    • TakaraTomy ID number: MD-06
Part of the first wave of Transformers Real Gear Robots, Power Up VT6 transforms into a (non-functional) hand-held video game system. Although there is no real-life equivalent model, he does bear a strong resemblance to the Wonderswan. Like all Real Gear Robots toys, his robot mode is apparently at 1:1 scale.
There is a notable variation between the Hasbro and Takara releases for this toy. In the Hasbro version, his screen, interestingly enough, shows Cybertron Jetfire as a video-game character, as the Real Gear Robots were originally designed for release in the Cybertron line. The Takara version, on the other hand, has a sticker showing movie-characters Barricade and Optimus Prime in a one-on-one beat-em-up style game. (Barricade appears to be winning.)
This mold was also used to make Hacker X-3.


  • Brain Scrambler Team (Multi-pack, 2007)
Power Up VT6 was also available in a Walmart exclusive two-pack with Zoom Out 25X. Bot toys are identical to their individual releases.

Notes

  • The appearance of Jetfire in the Hasbro Power Up VT6's screen is evidence of the Real Gear Robots' original release plan as late-series additions to the Cybertron toyline.

Foreign names

  • French: Console Video VT6 (Canada)
  • Spanish: Consola de Juegos VT6
