- Chain Gun is a Micromaster from the Operation Combination portion of the Generation 1 continuity family.
This character or person needs some sort of visual representation. If you have one, please replace this.
Chain Gun (チェーンガン Chēin Gan) is the leader of the Wing Team, and also the strongest of them. In fact, his strength is what got him the position as leader, though his incredible skill at aerial combat and silent-flight capabilities help. He prefers to attack his opponents from behind, catching them by surprise.
Fiction
Micromaster
Chain Gun was one of several Autobot Cyberdroids who were mutated into Decepticon Micromasters by a mysterious dimensional shockwave. After the ship crash-landed on Earth, he and his fellow Decepticons began causing trouble. A New Transformer Legend Begins!! Shortly after the arrival of Sixturbo on the Autobots' side, Chain Gun waited outside the Autobots' base while Missile Run infiltrated it in an attempt to steal several Cyberdroid capsules. When the Decepticon was interrupted in his task, Chain Gun furiously called the mission off and ordered another one: destroy everything! The team combined into Sixwing to attack. During the course of the battle, Sixwing took a blast from the Autobots' experimental Vaccine Program Gun, intended to return their original Autobot programming, but instead giving the Wing Team the power of the Berserker. Enter the Decepticon Sixwing!!
Later, Sixwing was routed by the newly-arrived Sixtrain, who used his "Red Mode" power to blast him into his components. The team fled, leaving the Autobots free to examine the Decepticons' excavation site near a dormant volcano. Once the Autobots dug up a pair of metal plates of Cybertronian origin, Chain Gun called for another attack to snatch the prizes, the team once again forming Sixwing. Sixtrain! Activate Red Mode!!
Operation Combination
Years later, Chain Gun (now an Autobot once again) and the rest of the Six-team Micromasters joined Guard City and the Road Corps in defending Earth from the forces of the Decepticon Führer Scrash. Operation Combination
