| '''Roadblock''' (ロードブロック ''Rōdoburokku'') is a powerful Decepticon fighter who typically teams up with [[Greejeeber]] on missions, but why they do so is anyone's guess. The pair really don't work well together, as Roadblock is slow both physically and mentally, which quickly gets on Greejeeber's nerves.
| |
| | |
| He's backed up by his tiny partner [[Targetmaster (RID)|Targetmaster]], though frankly those two don't get along either, Roadblock seeing the diminutive blaster-bot as a lesser life-form.

| | |
| : Part of the initial wave of Takara's ''[[Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2015 toyline)#TakaraTomy Adventure toyline|Adventure]]'' product (their version of the ''[[Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2015 toyline)| Robots in Disguise]]'' series), Roadblock is a [[redeco]] of ''[[Transformers: Generations (toyline)|Generations]]'' Deluxe Class [[Scoop (G1)#Generations|Autobot Scoop]] in [[Constructicon (G1)|Constructicon]] colors, transforming into a payloader. He comes with his partner, [[Targetmaster (RID)|Targetmaster]], who transforms into his gun. Targetmaster can be hand-held or mounted on any of the [[5 mm post|5 mm holes]] on Roadblock's armor.
| |
| | |
| : Although the original Scoop sculpt came with two Targetmaster partners, Roadblock only has one. Although both the original version of Targetmaster ([[Tracer (Targetmaster)#Generations|Caliburst]]) and Scoop featured parts cast in yellow plastic, they are not the ''same'' color and thus not from the same sprue (hence why they are different plastic colors between Roadblock and Targetmaster), and therefore, why one figure was redecoed and not the other ([[Holepunch (G1)#Generations|Holepunch]]) remains a mystery.
| |
| | |
| : His scannable [[insignia]] is on the top of his scoop bucket. Scanning the sticker unlocks Roadblock in the Transformers Chronicle checklist app. In-package, his badge was able to be scanned, but this was restricted by a dummy sticker.
| |
| | |
| : This sculpt got its other Targetmaster partner back when it was retooled into [[BotCon 2015]] [[Hound (G1)/toys#Timelines|Sgt. Hound]].

| | |
| ==Notes==
| |
| * Roadblock's package art and stock photos depict him with his nose in green, so as to more closely match the [[Aligned continuity family|Aligned]] cartoon aesthetic of 'helmet noses', but the final figure paints it silver like the rest of his face.
| |
| * He's a redeco of Scoop in [[Constructicon (G1)|Constructicon]] colors. [[You, Me, and the Universe|Foreshadowing?]]
