| '''Roadbuster''' (ロードバスター ''Rōdobasutā'') is a [[Wrecker]], but unlike most other members of the volatile team, possesses a gentle, friendly and serious-minded personality. Sometimes he can get a bit ''too'' serious, though, and get bogged down by his doubts about the future, uncertain what will happen to him if peace is ever achieved and he won't be of use anymore. Skilled at both fighting and weapons engineering, Roadbuster wields the "Calibur Arms" (キャリバーアームズ ''Kyaribā Āmuzu''), a collection of weapons of his own design that can combine in various ways.

| :Roadbuster is a red and blue [[redeco]] of [[Transformers: Generations|''Generations'']] Voyager-class [[Roadbuster (G1)#Generations|Roadbuster]] as a homage to [[Transformers: Energon (franchise)|''Energon'']] [[Ironhide (Energon)|Ironhide]] (whose Japanese name was Roadbuster). He transforms into an off-road vehicle and comes with the Calibur Arms, a large number of weapons that peg via 5mm post onto his vehicle rear/legs, shoulders, upper & lower arms, and hands: a spring-loaded, missile-firing launcher, a pistol, a rifle, and two small cannons that respectively form the scope and stock of the rifle. All of his weapons can combine to form an unwieldy superweapon.

| ==Notes==
| |
| *Roadbuster's Calibur Arms weapons are named after Mugen Calibur, the ''[[wikipedia:Special Armored Battalion Dorvack|Special Armored Battalion Dorvack]]'' toy used to make Generation 1 Roadbuster.
| |
| *Because said toy was still available in [[Japan]] at the time, Roadbuster's 1985 toy could not be sold as such there, nor could he appear in the [[The Transformers (cartoon)|cartoon]] or [[The Transformers (Marvel comic)|US Marvel comics]]—thus making ''Super Link'' Roadbuster (that is, ''Energon'' Ironhide) the original "Roadbuster" as far as ''Cloud''<nowiki>'s</nowiki> Japanese target audience is concerned.
