- Deep Cover is an Autobot from the Generation 1 continuity family.
Deep Cover is part of the Interplanetary Personnel Exchange Program set up between the Autobots and the human police forces. He and his brother Clamp Down work with local authorities to stem the tide of human crime. His many years of undercover work have taken their toll on him; though he remains vigilant and a fierce defender of the innocent, he sometimes comes across as very weary, struggling with inner demons.
He has quite the impressive bag of tricks, as he can not only project illusions, but is capable of shrinking himself down to 1/40th his normal size for brief periods of time. These special powers are perfect for the solo infiltration missions that have become his specialty.
Fiction
TransTech
Deep Cover is one of many countless "offworlders" living in Axiom Nexus. Gone Too Far
Toys
Generation 1
- Deep Cover (Autobot, 2003)
- ID number: 92
- Accessories: Rifle, missile launcher, 3 missiles
- An e-Hobby exclusive available only in a set with Clamp Down, Deep Cover is a redeco of the original Sideswipe toy, transforming into a Lamborghini Countach LP500S. As he was released only in Japan, his spring-loaded missile launcher is fully operational. Several decals that were factory-applied on the original version were replaced by painted tampographs, like his headlamps.
- This mold is also used for Clamp Down, Red Alert, and Tigertrack.
Notes
- Deep Cover's coloration is based on a pre-Transformers Diaclone coloration of the toy. This coloration was originally only available in the "Powered Convoy DX set", which also contained the "Powered Convoy" toy (pre-Ultra Magnus) and an exclusive red redeco of the "F-1 Ligier JS-11" stock car (pre-Mirage).
- Deep Cover's shrinking ability puts him at about the same height as his Diaclone-mold toy, making him one of the few Transformers to have a true 1:1 scale toy.
