Fiction

IDW Generation 1 continuity

The Functionist Universe

In an alternate timeline, the ruling Functionist Council had come to an agreement with the Black Box Consortia after two milion years of conflict, by selling Luna 2 to them. As a result, the Lunabots no longer served a purpose and they were recalled, though one of their number somehow managed to survive his obsolescence chip detonating. He was later discovered and killed by the Functionaries in front of Minimus Ambus and Rewind while trying to escape the planet at a spaceport. The Custom-Made Now

    • Japanese ID number: SC-05
    • Accessories: Spring-loaded missile launcher and 1 missile
The Lunabot was repurposed from Energon Jetfire.

Jetfire transforms into a white and red futuristic space shuttle and has the ability to combine with most other Autobot Deluxe and Mega Energon toys. He features an electronic transforming sound effect that activates when another Autobot combines with him.

The Japanese version of this toy does not feature any of the electronics, uses red translucent plastic in place of orange, and has a sticker covering the now-absent battery compartment.
This mold was also used to make Energon Overcast.
