'''[[Breakdown (G1)|Breakdown]]''' has an acute case of paranoia. (What was that!?) He genuinely believes that things, both living and inanimate, are ''watching'' him. (They're everywhere!) Breakdown doesn't like to stand out in a crowd. (Did you hear ''that''!?) He dreads being different and garnering attention. (Stop staring at me!) At times, he almost wishes he was a [[human]] so he could just disappear and no one would notice. (Get them off meeeee!) Needless to say, he and [[Red Alert (G1)|Red Alert]] (He's one of THEM!!) would be energon drinking buddies if each wasn't likely to be convinced the other was trying to poison him.
Young '''Pyro''' is another in a proud tradition of selfless Autobot heroes. He is invariably on the front lines protecting the weak and helpless, and is so brave and steadfast as to be virtually immovable. He stands for truth, justice, and the freedom of all sentient beings. He commands a powerful multi-functional battlestation. And, hey, did we mention that he transforms into a truck?


In vehicle mode, Breakdown's engine has got the shakes so hard that it can actually cause mechanical failures in other vehicles.  (They're faking!)  He can also rely (Ha!  As if!) on his [[concussion cannon]] if he gets cornered in an alley.  As you'd expect, his paranoia is his worst weakness.  It's such a problem that the stress can trigger mechanical problems, and it does, constantly. (Oh, yeah, I bet you'd ''love'' to claim this was "self-inflicted"!)
But is he a textbook case of ''[[primus apotheosis]]'' and member of the [[Wreckers]], or is he a cheerful and eccentric knighted citizen of the [[United Kingdom]]?  


Breakdown can also combine (They'll never take me alive!!) with his fellow [[Stunticon (G1)|Stunticons]] to form [[Menasor (G1)|Menasor]].
This is what happens when two Transformers licensees coincidentally grab a previously-unused character within the same year.  Whoops!

Young Pyro is another in a proud tradition of selfless Autobot heroes. He is invariably on the front lines protecting the weak and helpless, and is so brave and steadfast as to be virtually immovable. He stands for truth, justice, and the freedom of all sentient beings. He commands a powerful multi-functional battlestation. And, hey, did we mention that he transforms into a truck?

But is he a textbook case of primus apotheosis and member of the Wreckers, or is he a cheerful and eccentric knighted citizen of the United Kingdom?

This is what happens when two Transformers licensees coincidentally grab a previously-unused character within the same year. Whoops!
