- Rockhopper is a Star Seeker from the Generation 1 continuity family.
Rockhopper is somehow related to the Transformers, being able to transform but preferring to stay in his penguin mode. He has the capability to secrete an anti-corrosive and anti-erosive oil that allows him to survive in harsh wintery conditions.
Fiction
Wings Universe
Wings Universe is based on the Generation 1 cartoon, but deviates from it in cosmetic ways and continuity points.
The Star Seekers picked up Rockhopper at Greengard, where he had been living for a while. In the pirate crew, Rockhopper's main responsibilities included maintenance of weapons and machinery, using his oil to help them last longer. Tornado's Personal Journal
