- Boltflash is a Decepticon-allied Mini-Con from the Armada portion of the Unicron Trilogy continuity family (via the 2008 Universe line).
Boltflash is a member of the Overcast Team. The only thing less impressive than Boltflash's IQ are his skills as a warrior. Add in the fact that he's also rather a coward and it's no surprise he hasn't risen very far in the ranks. His physical and weapon-based combat potential aren't really half-bad but... then again, in the hands of an awkward, cowardly dim-wit maybe they are at that. [1]
