- Oceanglide is a Mini-Con from the Unicron Trilogy continuity family.
Oceanglide leads the Sea Mini-Con Team, being their smartest member. Not only is he an expert commander and fighter, but he also has a highly artistic side, most often displayed in bouts of poetry and verse. The seascape inspires him greatly...sometimes to the point of incomprehensibility.
This is seemingly in contrast with Oceanglide's personality in battle, where he is a ruthless and highly effective opponent. He has the ability to gather energy—both solar and weapon-based—in his solar panels either to power his body or to redirect as a heat beam. Some wonder why someone like Oceanglide tends to ally himself with the Decepticons, but he believes that he has a better chance of controlling his own destiny as a member of that side.
Fiction
Armada cartoon
Oceanglide and the Sea Mini-Con Team were captured at an unknown point by the Decepticons on Earth.

On the moon, Oceanglide and the other Mini-Cons were put to work by Megatron constructing a new space cruiser. When the Autobots lay siege to the Decepticon base, Perceptor sought out the Mini-Cons and tried to get them to accompany him to freedom. Their servility programming was too strong to overcome at first. After Oceanglide and the others saw Perceptor valiantly risking his life against Megatron, however, the Mini-Cons shrugged off the chains of their oppression, and fled to the warp gate chamber where the Autobots transported them to safety on Earth.
