Fireline

Fireline is a Decepticon Micromaster from the Siege portion of the Generation 1 continuity family.

Any wielder of Ground Force Weapons Raider Fireline will have to contend with the small robot's fiery temper and lack of patience, but his firepower packs punch to match.

• ID number: WFC-S62

Fireline is a redeco of Siege Topshot, but using the retooled Red Heat head, with colors in homage to the original Big Shot toy's Japanese release Gunlift. He transforms into a theoretically-Cybertronic self-propelled artillery cannon. As part of the C.O.M.B.A.T. System, he forms the main body of the "Gravatronic Rubblemaker Cannon" when combined with his pack-in partner Cratermaker (or any other iteration of that mold).

He was only available as part of a Target exclusive ten-pack of Micromasters, which includes the Autobots Ground Shaker, Irontread, Overair, Ricon, Road-Police, and Wheel Blaze, and the Decepticons Cratermaker, Nightflight, and Slyhopper.

Notes

• The Zone franchise from which Gunlift hails typically recast Hasbro's Decepticon Micromaster toys as Autobots, sometimes giving them new names in the process; Fireline's status as a renamed Decepticon version of the Autobot Topshot is perhaps an homage to this practice.
