- Thunder Clash is an Autobot from the Generation 1 continuity family.
Thunder Clash is the powerful, intelligent commander-in-chief of the Autobot Turbomasters. Fearless in battle and keen in strategy, he is a force to be reckoned with on the battlefield, his mere appearance sapping the fighting spirit from Decepticon forces. He commands the respect of the Autobots under his command and the fear of the Decepticon Predators they fight against. He worries not about the air superiority of the Predators, believing that by standing as one, the Turbomasters will be able to resist any that's thrown at them.
Toys
Generation 1
- Thunder Clash (Turbomaster, 1992)
- This toy also has an undocumented feature. The back of Thunder Clash's legs have notches in them that fits his handgun's "wings" for storage in vehicle mode.
- This mold was retooled into Machine Wars Optimus Prime. This later version of the mold had a planned redeco as Menasor in the Universe line, but was cancelled.
Trivia
- Thunderclash began life as "Hyperdrive". According to the concept art, the truck mode is roughly the same (the trailer sports two large "vent sections" on the sides) but the trailer and cab together form one very large robot in a fashion similar to Motormaster. For whatever reason, this robot is shown holding one of Thunderwing's rifles and having a chest similar to Star Convoy.[1]
