Revision as of 13:15, 10 September 2012
- Spaceshot is a Decepticon Micromaster from the Generation 1 continuity family.
Spaceshot co-pilots one of the "most powerful Decepticon weapons of all time". This is hopefully some consolation to him as, on his own, he only transforms into the back end of a B-1 bomber jet.
An unfailingly courageous soldier, Spaceshot will give his all for even the most hopeless causes. This includes defending his cowardly combiner partner, Blackout, whom he insists is a valiant and fearless Decepticon warrior despite all evidence to the contrary.
Toys
Generation 1
- Micromaster Combiner Decepticon Anti-Aircraft Base (1990)
- Accessories: "Anti-Aircraft Base" tank, "scout vehicle", ramp, 2 cannons, bazooka, communications dish, "radar drum", missile launcher
- Spaceshot transforms into the rear half of a blue and gray B-1 bomber jet. He was sold exclusively in a set which included Blackout (who transforms into the front end of said jet) and the Anti-Aircraft Base. As a Micromaster Combiner, Spaceshot can combine with any other Micromaster Combiner, Combiner Transport or Micro Trailer to form new and excitingly unworkable vehicle modes.
Notes
- Dreamwave's More than Meets the Eye profile comics accidentally reversed the character models for Blackout and Spaceshot, portraying Spaceshot as the front half of their combined vehicle mode and Blackout as the rear half. This error was carried over into the bio text as well, so it is entirely possible that the personality assigned to Spaceshot was intended for Blackout, and vice versa.
- That mistake reappeared almost ten years later when, for reasons unknown, Spaceshot was featured in a character lineup on Hubworld.com's Generation 1 cartoon page, visually represented by Dreamwave's erroneous Blackout art.[1]
