Quig is an Autobot-allied Nebulan Headmaster from the Generation 1 continuity family.
Imagine how much cooler he'd be as an orangutan.

If there was a twelfth circle of hell for librarians it would probably sound something like Cybertron's booming Sonic Canyons. Unfortunately for the meek, soft-spoken Nebulan librarian Quig, he was binary-bonded to a former inhabitant of those canyons, the out-(and always loudly)-spoken Siren. Their relationship has been a learning experience at the best of times. Siren tends to talk over others and disregard anything said at a less than bellowing volume, while the timid Quig tends to jump and spill his books every time Siren opens his mouth. As with many partnerships, however, the two are slowly learning from each other and are likely both better off for the pairing.

Quig is highly intelligent and quite well-read, traits that only enhance his partner's abilities.

Fiction

Marvel The Transformers comics

Quig never made an individual appearance, but see Siren's article for times he served as Siren's head.

Classics

Classics continues from the Marvel US series, and does not include the UK stories or any subsequently published stories.

Quig and Siren were always one of the more mismatched Autobot and Nebulan pairings among the Headmasters. When the technology to reverse the binary-bonding process was developed after the war, everyone assumed they would be first in line. On the contrary, Quig and Siren realized they had come to depend on each other: Quig needed Siren to help him be more outgoing, and Siren needed Quig to keep his more overbearing tendencies in check. Quig's profile in Club magazine #22

After the war, Quig and Siren hooked up with Grimlock's crew for a while before going their own way with Nightbeat. Along with their other organic friends Muzzle, Lug and Minerva, they became an ad hoc detective agency with the Dinobots Slag and Sludge as their muscle. Cheap Shots When the Dinobots first joined their team, Quig was quick to point out to Slag that his name was considered offensive to many Transformers. Slag was greatly amused by his remark. Slag's profile in Club magazine #22

On the planet Azure, the Quig's team was hired by a sentient ship named Amory to find her pilot, Phyrion. A search eventually turned up an ambush set by the Mayhem Attack Squad, but Quig and the others managed to rescue Phyrion despite the Decepticons' intervention. Cheap Shots

Quig and the rest of the crew eventually set up an official "Nightbeat and Associates" agency for hire. At Fight's End

Toys

Generation 1

CAN YOU HEAR ME NOW? WHAT? WHAT?!
  • Siren with Quig (Headmaster, 1988)
    • Accessories: "Quig" Headmaster driver, seat/helmet, CO2 shotgun, right and left "Sonic Screamer Pistols"
Quig transforms into part of Siren's head, with the vehicle mode's "chair" and the hood's photon pistols forming the rest. When Quig is connected, folding down a flip-down panel on Siren's chest uncovers a spring-loaded mini-Tech-Spec-meter which gives readings for Speed, Strength and Intelligence. The tumblers are activated when Quig (or any other Headmaster unit) is plugged into his neck socket. Quig has Siren's face plainly visible on his back because, as a smaller Headmaster toy, he lacks the flip-down panel that covers the face, featured on larger Headmasters.
While Siren is in vehicle mode, his roof opens, allowing Quig to ride inside, sitting on the chair that forms Siren's helmet.
The same mold was redecoed into Japanese Headmaster Junior Goshooter. A Siren-colored version of Shūta was also offered in Japan via Robot Point offer.
