- Blue Bacchus is a Decepticon Crossformer from the Victory portion of the Generation 1 continuity family.
Blue Bacchus is Black Shadow’s villainous partner in crime. He is a scheming and maniacal madman. Like his accomplice, he enjoys causing general mayhem for fun and profit.
- Omni Productions dub name: Crossblades
Fiction
Victory cartoon
- Voice actor: Ryōichi Tanaka (Japan)
Blue Bacchus and his partner, Black Shadow, were hired by Hellbat of the Breastforce to help him loot Planet Micro of all its energon. While the Crossformers caused massive panic and destruction, Hellbat got a clear run at the energy reserves. The incredible size and power of the Crossformers, especially on a world full of Micromasters, made their mission relatively easy, until Star Saber arrived. While Saber engaged Hellbat, Blue Bacchus and Black Shadow were forced to contend with their former partner in crime, Greatshot, who had reformed and joined the Autobots. Although they battled fiercely, his six modes were ultimately better than their two, and the Crossformers were critically damaged. Forced to abandon their outer forms, they blasted out into space in their inner vehicle modes. Planet Micro - The Mysterious Warrior
Toys
Victory
- Blue Bacchus (Crossformer, 1989)
- Japanese ID number: D-310
- Accessories: Crossformer shell, cannon/tail rotor, 2 small lasers, wing assembly, left & right landing gear, 2 thruster pods
- Blue Bacchus is a redeco of the Mega Pretender Crossblades, transforming into a Cybertronic "dragster". His outer Crossformer shell's chest/head and waist pieces are retooled from Crossblades's to make it more robotic. The shell can still transform into a Cybertronic helicopter. Blue Bacchus can be stored inside his shell in either of his modes, and his vehicle mode can combine with the shell to form a helicopter with a Cybertronic "dragster" sticking out of its front.
Notes
- In the cartoon, Blue Bacchus's inner robot (shown only in "dragster" and "dragster"-attached-to-copter modes) is colored as Crossblades. The shell's helicopter windows are colored orange to match.
- The Crossformers' ID numbers are actually a huge jump backwards in the Japanese numbering system. The other Victory Decepticons' numbers start at D-322. However, Shadow and Bacchus' numbers put them right in the middle of the Super-God Masterforce Decepticons' numbers, between 1988's Browning and BlackZarak, even though the Crossformers were released in 1989.
