Have you seen me?

This character or person needs some sort of visual representation. If you have one, please replace this.

Chain Gun (チェーンガン Chēin Gan) is the leader of the Wing Team, and also the strongest of them. In fact, his strength is what got him the position as leader, though his incredible skill at aerial combat and silent-flight capabilities help. He prefers to attack his opponents from behind, catching them by surprise.

Fiction

Micromaster

Chain Gun was one of several Autobot Cyberdroids who were mutated into Decepticon Micromasters by a mysterious dimensional shockwave. After the ship crash-landed on Earth, he and his fellow Decepticons began causing trouble. A New Transformer Legend Begins!! Shortly after the arrival of Sixturbo on the Autobots' side, Chain Gun waited outside the Autobots' base while Missile Run infiltrated it in an attempt to steal several Cyberdroid capsules. When the Decepticon was interrupted in his task, Chain Gun furiously called the mission off and ordered another one: destroy everything! The team combined into Sixwing to attack. During the course of the battle, Sixwing took a blast from the Autobots' experimental Vaccine Program Gun, intended to return their original Autobot programming, but instead giving the Wing Team the power of the Berserker. Enter the Decepticon Sixwing!!

Later, Sixwing was routed by the newly-arrived Sixtrain, who used his "Red Mode" power to blast him into his components. The team fled, leaving the Autobots free to examine the Decepticons' excavation site near a dormant volcano. Once the Autobots dug up a pair of metal plates of Cybertronian origin, Chain Gun called for another attack to snatch the prizes, the team once again forming Sixwing. Sixtrain! Activate Red Mode!!

The Micromaster story was never actually concluded. However, as it has been established that its events take place as part of the normal Japanese Transformers timeline, it is clear that the Wing Team eventually had their original Autobot programming restored somehow.

Operation Combination

Years later, Chain Gun (now an Autobot once again) and the rest of the Six-team Micromasters joined Guard City and the Road Corps in defending Earth from the forces of the Decepticon Führer Scrash. Operation Combination

None of the combiner team individuals ever actually show up as individuals, only as components of the combined robot modes.

Toys

Operation Combination

  • Sixwing (Micromaster Sixteam, 1992)
    • Japanese ID number: TF-02
    • Accessories: Rotor blade
The original version of Chain Gun was available only as part of a Sixwing gift set in Japan, transforming into an Apache-style assault helicopter. He can also form the back or chest to any of the "kibble-jet" style of Six-Team, though his nominal placement is as the back of Sixwing. The original Six-Teams are considered among the more difficult Japanese Generation 1 pieces to find.
This mold is also used by the Universe Aerialbot Ro-Tor.


Micromaster

Here comes the helicopter. Second time today.
  • Chain Gun (Micromaster, 2003)
    • Sixwing ID number: 1
    • Accessories: Rotor blade, Sixwing legs
In 2003, the entire Sixwing team was extensively redecoed as part of the third assortment of The Transformers: Micromaster toys, in individual boxes with a number visible to show which mold was inside each box.


  • Berserker Chain Gun (Micromaster, 2003)
    • Sixwing ID number: 1
    • Accessories: Rotor blade, Sixwing legs
In every case of twelve Wing Team Micromasters, two of them were solid-white-plastic "Berserker" variations with purple Autobot sigils. All six Micromasters were available in this manner.

Notes

  • Chain Gun, like all of the six-team Micromasters, had no individual bio information whatsoever until his Micromaster release a decade after his original Operation Combination release.
