| The name or term "Over-Run" refers to more than one character or idea. For a list of other meanings, see Over-Run (disambiguation). |
- Over-Run is a Autobot Action Master in the Generation 1 continuity family.
A fiercely individual perfectionist, domineering and arrogant (even downright tyrannical), Over-Run acts like the air war with the Decepticons is his own personal responsibility, and he'll yell angry instructions or abuse at anyone of any rank he sees as getting in the way of his winning it. Needless to say, this makes him pretty unpopular with the other airborne Autobots. If he wasn't a very effective warrior in an arena where they are traditionally outmatched, it's unlikely Over-Run would be anywhere but in the brig by now. He is dedicated to the Autobot cause, though; he just sees beating the Decepticons as far more important than rudeness and the feelings of his inferior comrades. He'll apologize after the war ends. Maybe.
He rules the skies in his Attack Copter.

- Accessories: Rotary Photon Pulse Laser Cannon, 2 x Side Concussion Cannons (left and right), 2 x Magnetic Missiles, engine cover, rotor
- Over-Run is unusual for an Action Master due to his rather monochromatic colour scheme, as he is made primarily out of a single shade of red plastic. All of his other colours are paint applications. Over-Run's sculpt suggests that before becoming an Action Master, he once transformed into a Cybertronic helicopter, due to the canopy and rotor shaft details on his torso. Appropriately, his Action Master vehicle is a small attack helicopter, and when not using the helicopter as his ride, Over-Run wields the vehicle's rotary photon pulse laser cannon and engine cover as weapon and shield, respectively.
- Over-Run can ride inside the cockpit of the attack helicopter, which can also transform into a small cannon emplacement/base, with the rotors being stored underneath and extra armour flipping forward from the rear fuselage.
Notes
- Over-Run's Attack Copter-mountable handheld laser gun is, fittingly, a remold of one of Vortex's side-mounted cannons.
