Starburst

Starburst is a Decepticon-aligned Mini-Con from the Cybertron portion of the Unicron Trilogy continuity family.

The Mini-Con on the far right has two or three other coworkers with lots of spare parts.

Starburst is a member of the Interstellar Marauders Mini-Con Team. Though a competent medic/mechanic, he is disliked by his crew members due to poor people skills and hygiene. He is loyal to Spacewarp, augmenting her through powerlinxing or by combining with his teammates into the Transwarp Blaster.

Fiction

Ask Vector Prime

Starburst and his teammates Boom Tube and Jump Drive were frozen in stasis lock in their combined form. Spacewarp won them as the prize in a game of high-stakes Triad held on Monacus. When she and Foldspace revived the team through the use of proton energy, the team swore allegiance to her. Ask Vector Prime, 2015/09/17

Universe (2003)

• Spacewarp

Spacewarp was an unproduced Universe store exclusive, slated to come with a redeco of the Space Mini-Con Team as well. Even though she was initially intended as a Toys"R"Us exclusive, no retail chain ultimately ended up wanting to carry her, so Spacewarp was shelved. She was among several proposed exclusives that were ultimately put into retail limbo during the waning of the Universe line. The Spacewarp concept was ultimately released as one of the first exclusives available for purchase to Transformers Collectors' Club members as Astrotrain, though with a redeco of the Giant Planet Mini-Con Team instead of a redeco of the Space Mini-Con Team.

Your bargaining posture is highly dubious. Proceed on your way to oblivion. This item has been canceled, with no current plans for release.

Notes

• Spacewarp and all of her Mini-Cons have names deriving from fictional methods of FTL travel. Starburst's name comes from Farscape.
• According to Jim Sorenson, his personality was loosely based on Futurama's Dr. Zoidberg.
