| This article is about the movieverse Decepticon. For the Unicron Trilogy Mini-Con, see Blue Max. |
- Blue Maximus is a Decepticon from the movie continuity family (via the 2010 Transformers toyline).
Blue Maximus is kind of outdated. He probably doesn't like Crosshairs.
Fiction
Ask Vector Prime
In Tyran 208.28 Gamma, Blue Maximus was one of the Decepticons assembled by The Fallen after the bulk of the Decepticon forces were stranded by the Autobots on Cybertron. Ask Vector Prime, 2015/08/21
Toys
Transformers (2010)
- Blue Maximus vs Crosshairs (Multi-pack,
201?)
- A redeco of Revenge of the Fallen Scout Class Ransack, Transformers Blue Maximus transforms into a German Albatros D.III biplane. He has a non-firing weapon on each arm and a "Battle Mode" in which his wings are deployed in robot mode, presumably for flight.
- This sculpt was also used to make Revenge of the Fallen Divebomb.
- Blue Maximus would have been available in a two-pack with Crosshairs, a Revenge of the Fallen Rollbar redeco, but for a long time, the only information on this set came from a set of instructions[1] on Hasbro's website. Like all Transformers instructions, they're in black and white, making it impossible to tell how Blue Maximus was to be colored. His alternate mode's deco was eventually revealed when Makoto Ono posted his 3D renders for various toys from the 2010 Transformers toy line that were (or were intended to be) used as those toys' package art on TFW2005.[2]

Notes
- Blue Maximus is named after The Blue Max, a 1966 film about a German fighter pilot during World War I, the title of which is in turn a reference to the colloquial name of a wartime medal. The fuselage decoration on the figure was also likely intended to homage the "lozenge" camouflage worn by several aircraft in the film.
