Fiction

Micronus Prime used an illusion of Overload to challenge Optimus Prime. The robot deployed his Mini-Cons to terminate a group of humans who had made their way into the Realm of the Primes. The robot spent most of his time just standing around while his Mini-Cons did most of the dirty work. Overload and the Mini-Cons were ultimately defeated when Optimus climbed a hill to activate his Prime Decepticon Hunter and it turned out the Decepticons and humans were mere illusions. Out of Focus

Overload transforms into a Cybertronian tank and can launch his Mini-Con partner Backtrack. Although he is not designed to, he is capable of launching torpedo-style Mini-cons. He has a battle mask - a feature intended to cover his face in vehicle mode also doubles as an homage to the rectangle-eye of the robot in the cartoon which he's based on. Unlike Deployers Fracture and Drift, Overload is incapable of launching Mini-Cons in robot mode.

Notes

  • Overload and Backtrack's bodies are based on the illusionary Decepticon warriors Micronus Prime used to challenge Optimus Prime in "Out of Focus". The major difference is that they gave Overload a proper robot head rather than the featureless rectangle of the robot in the show. However given the toy also provides Overload with a battle mask that resembles the "head" of the robot, it is entirely possible that the robot simply had his battle mask deployed.
  • The Cyclones are said to be unaligned by Divebomb, though Overload and Backtrack's toys are marketed as Decepticons. It is currently unknown if Overload is unaligned in the cartoon as well.
