- Road King is an Autobot Godmaster in the Masterforce portion of the Generation 1 continuity family.
Road King is a ground defense and communications soldier armed with a pin-hole rifle. In F-1 mode he can travel at speeds up to Mach 9.5. He is also a first-rate mechanic. He has a "big city" personality, and as such can be very loud. There are times when he argues with Ranger, but they have a generally good relationship, usually ending their arguments with a joke.
