Leading Light

The Leading Light is a starship from the 2005 IDW portion of the Generation 1 continuity family.

The Leading Light is one of the Lost Light's shuttles. It's large enough to carry at least thirty Transformers, but nippy enough to be more convenient to get to places.

Fiction

2005 IDW continuity

In an attempt to find the Circle of Light, Rodimus took a team in the Leading Light to Temptoria, where a band of Decepticons were holed up. Once there, at least some of the Autobots began dramatically jumping out of the ship in their haste to attack the Decepticons. After roughing up the occupying forces and liberating the capital, Rodimus's team returned to the Lost Light on the shuttle, taking their wounded and a number of enemy prisoners. Before & After

Like the rest of the ship's shuttles, the Leading Light was used as an evacuation vessel when the Lost Light began disappearing into thin air space. Predestination: A Beginner's Guide The evacuees on board, including Rodimus and Ultra Magnus, were all original crew members from the Lost Light's launch, which meant they too began disappearing one by one until only Magnus was left. He was trying to contact the Rodpod when the Leading Light itself vanished, taking him with it. Twenty Plus One
