- Booster X10 is a Decepticon Real Gear Robot from the Transformers portion of the live-action film series continuity family.
Booster X10 loves to mess with his user's head, and he does that through messing with their ears. Sound manipulation is his specialty: not only can he record and playback sound, but alter still-in-the-air sound waves. He laughs to himself, knowing how much trouble and strife he can cause with a warped word in conversation, or changing something like an ambulance siren into a barking dog.

Fiction
Toy packaging
Two masters of sound and signal, it is perhaps destiny that Booster and Speed Dial 800 would come into conflict, and OOOOH have they. The arch foes are in constant conflict now, the air between them thick with their powers. One of the most brutal and pitched battles of the war will never be seen, and rarely even heard, as invisible signals flash back and forth constantly between these bitter rivals.[1]
Toys
Transformers (2007)
- Booster X10 (Real Gear Robots, 2007)
- Takara ID number: MD-12
- Part of the second wave of Transformers Real Gear Robots, Booster X10 transforms from a (non-functional) MP3 player vaguely resembling an iPod Nano into a robotic bird. He comes with a wireless earphone/microphone (which is surprisingly comfortable) that becomes a back-mounted cannon for his bird-bot mode.
- This mold was also used to make Night Beat 7.
- Mass Media Battle (Multi-pack, 2007)
- Booster X10 was also available in a Wal-Mart exclusive two-pack with Speed Dial 800. Both toys are identical to their individual releases.
Notes
- Booster X10 is an obvious homage to Generation 1 Laserbeak.
- Booster X10's bird mode bears a bizarre (and surely coincidental) resemblance to the generic Autobot space cruisers from the Armada cartoon. (see right)
Foreign names
- French: Ampli X10 (Canada)
- Spanish: Amplificador X10
Footnotes
- ↑ Cardback story blurb from the Wal-Mart exclusive "Mass Media Battle" two-pack.
