Jumpstart

This article is about the Mini-Con from Armada. For the Autobot subgroup from Generation 1, see Jumpstarter.

Jumpstart is a Mini-Con from the Armada portion of the Unicron Trilogy continuity family.

Don't ask where the jumper cables attach.

One of many *bzzzt* *krakle* SATAN EATS CHEEZ WHIZ!

One of many power-enhancing Mini-Cons scattered across Earth, Jumpstart is a member of the Red Mini-Con Team. When Powerlinxed to a larger Transformer, Jumpstart transforms into a powerful electrical blaster. Enemies near the target struck by the beam may also take damage as the bolt leaps from enemy to enemy.

Jumpstart is not *bzzzt* *krakle* LEE IACCOCA WEARS TIGHTIE WHITIES!

Jumpstart is not a well Mini-Con; he's a sparking, sputtering collection of loose wires, prone to emitting electric shocks without warning. He's not any better at conversation — apparently he's so fried that all he can manage are random syllables and non-sequiturs. Still, he's useful in battle, even if anyone he Powerlinxes to gets the occasional jolt. *bzzzt* *krakle* NOOOOO SPRINGS! Heh heh heeeh!

Transformers Playstation 2 video game

Jumpstart's Mini-Con storage panel was discovered on Megatron's Pacific island base, on a tiny ledge on the sheer rock face of the volcano, above the deep blue sea. It was only with the use of Slipstream's glider-pack that the Autobots were able to recover him. Following the defeat of Megatron, he and the other Mini-Cons returned to Cybertron and helped form the Matrix Cannon, Nemesis Shield and Vanguard Booster, giving the Autobots the power needed to destroy Unicron.

Notes

• Jumpstart uses the same base model as Aurora, Corona, and Sparkjump.
• The launch party for the Armada game had a "Mini-Con Madness" drink menu. A "Jumpstart" was a Cosmopolitan.
