- The Minnow is a ship from the cartoon portion of the Generation 1 continuity family
The Minnow was a vessel used by the Junkions. It was kept buried under huge piles of rubbish when not in use. It was eventually destroyed by Unicron.
Fiction
The Transformers cartoon
Just sit right back and you'll read a tale,
A tale of a mighty ship
That launched from good old planet Junk
Straight into Unicron's grip
When Junkions allies did make
They gave a rad hurrah,
And launched the Minnow straight away
To kill the grand poobah, to kill the grand poobah
At Cybertron did they arrive
Flame breath it couldn't avoid,
If not for the mend work of the fearless crew,
The Minnow'd be destroyed, the Minnow'd be destroyed
They fought the Chaos Bringer for as long as they could fight
With Wreck-Gar,
Ultra Magnus too,
Perceptor, perhaps Blurr,
Maybe Wheelie,
And the rest,
By Darkest hour's new light!
The Transformers: The Movie
Notes
- This vessel went nameless for over 20 years. It was retroactively dubbed the Minnow in Transformers: The Complete Ark.
- If you haven't figured it out by now, the Minnow shares it name with the boat the characters from the TV show Gilligan's Island were on when a storm marooned them on an uncharted isle.
- Wreck-Gar introduces the Minnow with the line "new, improved Junkion planet is sleek, sexy import with turbo handling". This is a leftover from the early script in which the Junkions' planet was their spaceship.
Foreign names
- Japanese: Junkion rocket (ジャンキオン・ロケット Jankion roketto)
