Vanquish

This article is about the Decepticon Micromaster. For his Japanese Autobot counterpart, see Vanquish (ROC).

Vanquish is a Decepticon Micromaster from the Generation 1 continuity family.

Vanquish is the silent partner in his combiner relationship with Fireshot. He prefers to fly under the radar, both figuratively and literally, and achieves his goals by going unnoticed. He stays on Fireshot's good side, in case he should ever achieve his goal of replacing Direct-Hit as team leader of the Battle Squad.

Also? Cool name.

French-Canadian name: Vanqueur

Fiction

Wings of Honor

Vanquish and Falcon were servants of the Decepticon Warlord named Deathsaurus roughly nine million years ago as the Great War began. They held the Combaticons captive behind a field of Oan energy until Deathsaurus was ready for an audience. The Coming Storm: Part 4

Vanquish is not a Micromaster in the Wings of Honor continuity.

Toys

Generation 1

• Battle Squad (Micromaster Combiner Squad, 1990)

Vanquish transforms into the rear half of a SR-71 Blackbird stealth jet, which he forms with his combiner partner Fireshot. He can, of course, be connected to any other Micromaster Combiner, although in his case this does makes no sense, as Fireshot is the only one he forms a real vehicle with.

Vanquish was only available in a six-pack with his squad mates Fireshot, Direct-Hit, Half-Track, Meltdown and Power Punch.
