| 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.[1]
Also? Cool name.

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 be connected to any other Micromaster Combiner, although with most he'll look pretty silly.
- Vanquish was only available in a six-pack with his squad mates Fireshot, Direct-Hit, Half-Track, Meltdown and Power Punch.
Notes
Foreign names
- French: Vanqueur (Canada)
