Roadbuster (ロードバスター Rōdobasutā) is a Wrecker, but unlike most other members of the volatile team, possesses a gentle, friendly and serious-minded personality. Sometimes he can get a bit too serious, though, and get bogged down by his doubts about the future, uncertain what will happen to him if peace is ever achieved and he won't be of use anymore. Skilled at both fighting and weapons engineering, Roadbuster wields the "Caliber Arms" (キャリバーアームズ Kyaribā Āmuzu), a collection of weapons of his own design that can combine in various ways.

- Roadbuster (3-21-2015)
- ID number: TFC-A04
- Accessories: Launcher, missile, missile pod, pistol, rifle, cannon/rifle stock, cannon/rifle scope
- Roadbuster is a red and blue redeco of Generations Voyager-class Roadbuster as a homage to Energon Ironhide (whose Japanese name was Roadbuster). He transforms into an off-road vehicle and comes with the Calibur Arms, a large number of weapons that peg via 5mm post onto his vehicle rear/legs, shoulders, upper & lower arms, and hands: a spring-loaded, missile-firing launcher, a pistol, a rifle, and two small cannons that respectively form the scope and stock of the rifle. All of his weapons can combine to form an unwieldy superweapon.
- The first 500 customers who preordered got 1 of 3 gifts: 2 Arms Microns, or the Anniversary Clear Version EZ Collection Optimus Prime.
Notes
- Roadbuster's Caliber Arms weapons are named after Mugen Caliber, the Special Armored Battalion Dorvack toy used to make Generation 1 Roadbuster.
- Because said toy was still available in Japan at the time, Roadbuster's 1985 toy could not be sold as such there, nor could he appear in the cartoon or US Marvel comics—thus making Super Link Roadbuster (that is, Energon Ironhide) the original "Roadbuster" as far as Cloud's Japanese target audience is concerned.
