| This article is about the Micromaster. For the building that is sometimes a character, see Hot House (facility). |
- Hot House is an Autobot Micromaster from the Generation 1 continuity family.
Hot House is a thinker. He mulls over every problem to the last rivet, often out loud. His fellow Autobots wonder if he should really be left in charge of a large battle vehicle, but his attention to detail actually makes him very good at his job, watching the skies at long-range to defend Autobot installations against incoming Decepticon attacks.[2]
His fire station is also great at shooting at Decepticons bigger than it. Doing any damage is another matter entirely.
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 Violengiguar kidnapped Galaxy Rocket and fled to the Tenth Planet, all the Micromasters (Hot House included) promised to keep Zone safe while Dai Atlas and the Powered Masters pursued the villain. Zone Part 10

References
- ↑ "It means a heated greenhouse, where people grow tropical flowers. I do like flowers. Red ones set off my optics. Of course, 'hothouse' is also an adjective meaning 'delicate, sensitive.' Y'know, I think I kinda resent that! Sure, I'm not the strongest Micromaster around, but I get by! And firefighting is hard work! *harumph* Anyway, I'm still having trouble coming up with a caption. Let me know if you think of something."
