- Slow Poke is an Autobot Micromaster from the Generation 1 continuity family.
Slow Poke of the Monster Truck Patrol can always be counted on to follow orders to the letter... though he'll complain about it the entire time. He's bitter and ornery to the core, but not once has he let it stop him from carrying out a mission. This unwillingness to stop in the face of adversity is normally a positive, but he takes it too far... he'll keep at a losing proposition long after more reasonable 'bots would have changed tactics, even if he's taking damage (and complaining about that) the entire time.[1]
