Galaxy Shuttle is an Autobot from the Victory portion of the Generation 1 continuity family.
I know the pain of Astrotrain...

Galaxy Shuttle does not have a very interesting name. Nor does he have an interesting personality. Nor does he have an interesting job, which is basically "Autobot bus, but in space".

However, he does have a funny voice and the ridiculously interesting "Meteor Crusher" ability to become the center of a swarm of meteors which he can use to smash land-based targets to a fine powder. Yikes.

English-Malay dub name: Countdown

Fiction

Victory cartoon

Voice actor: Shingo Hiromori (Japanese)

With the exception of Metroplex, Fortress and Grand Maximus, Galaxy Shuttle is possibly the largest Autobot. Combiners barely reach his chest. As a shuttle, he has to live on top of the fortress launchpad habited by his compatriots, which makes him... pretty big. That said, Deathsaurus has no trouble putting him in his place, with extreme prejudice.

Victory comic

When Leozack attacked the Earth, Star Saber and the Autobots were stationed onboard Galaxy Shuttle. After receiving an SOS, Star Saber left to investigate the attack. Leozack Rumbles Violently!

Later, Blacker left Earth via Galaxy Shuttle to return to Planet V, where he was greeted by Shūta and Cab. The Star of Friendship, Jean and Star Saber!

When Deathsaurus initiated his final assault on the Earth, Galaxy Shuttle carried the Victories into battle, helping them invade the Decepticon Space City. Although they bested the Dinoforce, they were stalled by an explosive trap set up by Leozack. Heroic! The Victory War

Zone OVA, manga and story pages

After the defeat of Deathsaurus and his fortress, the Decepticons eventually consolidated again, this time under the command of Emperor Violen Jiger, and began conquering vast expanses of space. To combat this threat, Victory Saber stationed Galaxy Shuttle on the Planet Zone, overseeing several Microtransformer teams and mobilizing them on coordinated strike missions to defend planets from Decepticon attack. Zone Part 1

On a mission to Feminia, however, the planet was completely destroyed by Violen Jiger's Generals. Galaxy Shuttle managed to ferry away as much of the planet's population as he could, but Victory Saber was considerably damaged by the explosion, and so command of the Autobots was passed on to Dai Atlas. Enter the New Supreme Commander, Dai Atlas! Transformers: Zone

Later, Violen Jiger sent his new warriors, Metrotitan and the Metrosquad to attack the Lunar Zone Base. Galaxy Shuttle was killed by Metrotitan in the attack. Zone Part 8

Toys

Victory

Not Jetfire.
  • Galaxy Shuttle (Autobot, 1989)
    • Japanese ID number: C-326
    • Accessories: Thruster-cannon
Galaxy Shuttle transforms into a large space shuttle. His cockpit opens to hold a Micromaster or similar-sized robot (like the Brainmaster units). His cargo bay is also deep enough to fit a suitably low-riding Micromaster in vehicle mode. He is designed to be able to rest on the launching pad of Countdown's Rocket Base in the place of its normal rocket. His top shuttle thruster/stabilizer fin becomes a (non-firing) hand-held cannon for robot mode.

Generation 1

  • Galaxy Shuttle Italy (Autobot, 1990)
Galaxy Shuttle was inexplicably also available in the GiG Transformers line.

Notes

No one will recognize me in this costume!
