- Heavywait is a Decepticon from the Generation 1 continuity family.
Heavywait is a beefy believer in the Decepticon cause.
Fiction
2005 IDW continuity
In the years before the Great War, Heavywait ran guns with Needlenose and Horri-Bull and supplied members of the burgeoning Decepticon movement with weapons. Future Glories Lost The group supplied Jetfire with a gun, unaware that he was working with the Autobots; when Orion Pax arrived to arrest the group, Heavywait unwisely pulled a gun on the Autobots and was fatally shot in the head as a result. Feel Safe Without Regrets
2019 IDW continuity
- First appearance: Transformers #25
Loyal to Strika, Heavywait fought in the War of the Threefold Spark as a member of Strika's heavy artillery brigade. As a result of this loyalty, she followed her old leader right into the newly-founded Decepticons with several other veteran soldiers, and became a member of Strika's "New Heavies" during the Decepticon takeover of the Senate. Prime
Along with the other Heavies, Heavywait joined the attack on the Forge Pyramid, expressing extreme confidence in her unit. Titans
When Strika led an attack on Crystal City, the Heavies served as the spearhead, with Heavywait among those sent ahead to root out Autobot defenders. A Dust of Crystals
Alternate future
In an alternate future where Exarchon had conquered the planet, Heavywait had been enslaved by a Voin asserter. Test Flight I
Notes
- Much like Voxpop, Heavywait debuted as an unnamed generic in the 2005-2018 IDW universe, drawn by Kei Zama, later receiving a name and characterization in the 2019-2022 IDW continuity under the pen of author Brian Ruckley. As forged female Transformers did not exist on Cybertron during the pre-war era depicted in Optimus Prime, it is ambiguous as to whether the original Heavywait would be male or a rare transgender Cybertronian like Anode or Lug.
