| This article is about the building that is sometimes a character. For the small eponymous character, see Hot House (Micromaster). |
- The fire station is an Autobot Micromaster base from the Generation 1 continuity family.
For such an introspective warrior, defense specialist Hot House packs an amazing amount of weaponry in his fire station, the Hot House. The mobile base converts from a garage and repair station into a treaded tank with a battering ram, missiles, rockets, and a cannon that's much bigger than Hot House himself.
Fiction
Zone cartoon, comic, and story pages
Upon the creation of the Zone Base, Hot House was put in charge of the Fire Base. Zone Part 4
When the Decepticon Generals invaded Zone, the Fire Base was a crucial part of Zone Base's absolutely useless defenses. It transformed from its innocuous fire station form into a massive artillery platform and let the Decepticons have it with volley after volley of completely and utterly pointless firepower. No matter how much firing was done, no actual damage was done to the Decepticons, who managed to make off with a sample of Energon Z, taken from Zone Base itself. Fight! Super Robot Lifeform Transformers: Zone Enter the New Supreme Commander, Dai Atlas!
Wings Universe
By the year 2984, the Fire Base was in operation on Cyberion. Hoist the Flag
Earthrise toy bios

Commercial appearances
Micromaster cities were small enough to fit inside Optimus Prime's clenched fist. The fire station was among the bases and transports held within his iron grip. Micromaster Transports and battle stations commercial
Toys
The Transformers
- Hot House (Micromaster Station, 1989)
- Japanese ID number: C-343
- Accessories: Ramp
- The fire station was sold in a small boxed package, along with The Transformers Hot House. Ramps allow it to connect to other Micromaster stations to form larger "city" complexes. An opening "garage" door can conceal a vehicle mode Micromaster. It unfolds from its fire station mode to a battle tank with retracting cannon barrel.
- The station is unique among the four Micromaster Stations; not only is it the only one with a mobile battle mode, but it also does not have any extra accessories to be plugged in anywhere. If only it had wheels.
Zone
- Hot House (Micro Transformer Station, 1990)
- This set was released in the Japanese Zone toyline with no notable changes in 1990.
Generations
- Hot House (Deluxe Modulator, 2020)
- Hasbro ID number: WFC-GS15
- TakaraTomy ID number: ER EX-12
- Japanese release date: 2020
- Accessories: 3-part blaster
- Rebranded with the name of the Fire Station's operator, Generations Selects Hot House is a redeco of Earthrise Airwave, transforming via part-forming into either an airbase with tiny runways or a gun embankment, both based loosely on the original Micromaster station. Several of their pieces have A.I.R. Lock System connection points, which allow many different building configurations to link up with other toys in the line to form larger fortifications. Their parts can also be used to augment other figures as armor and add-on weapons, similar to the Weaponizers of the prior Siege toyline.
- The toy has similar colors to Airwave, with much of the blue, orange, and dark gray from Airwave still remaining in the same places.
- Amusingly, Hot House's stock photos have the 'Fire Station' sign upside down in base mode.
Notes
- All four Micromaster Stations were later re-used in one of Takara's Brave lines, omitting the Micromasters and adding a pair of non-transforming mini-figures from the series.
Foreign names
- Japanese: Fire Base (ファイヤーベース Faiyā Bēsu)
