Chrome is an Autobot-allied Mini-Con from the Energon portion of the Unicron Trilogy continuity family.
Aptly named.

Chrome (クローム Kurōmu) is one of the many power-enhancing Mini-Cons who help the Autobots search the galaxy for raw Energon deposits. The leader of the Stealth Augmentation Team, Chrome can deflect energy weapons with his mirror-like finish. When Powerlinxed to a Bulk, he grants the ability to generate a personal force field.<ref>Ask Vector Prime post on Facebook, 24 September 2015</ref>

  • Chrome (Micron Booster, 2004)
  • Booster ID number: 1
Super Link Chrome is a redeco of the "Corona" version of the Mini-Con Sparkplug, transforming into a Cybertronic sports car.
He was only available as part of the second Micron Booster assortment (called "Ver.1") in Japan, in individual, blind-packed boxes so you did not know which Mini-Con you got until you opened the box and opaque black plastic bag inside. This series was sold primarily in convenience stores.
Chrome uses the same mold as his case-mates Synapse and Thyristor. The original version of the mold is used by Atlas and Rod.
