Fiction
Predator Air Attack!

Scorch defended the Autobot Turbomaster base when it was attacked by the Predators. Predator Air Attack!
Dreamwave comics continuity

After the conquest of Cybertron by Megatron and the Aerospace Extermination Squadron, Scorch and the rest of the Turbomasters evaded capture and participated in the Autobot underground resistance. Perceptor briefed the Turbomasters in the Think-Tank about the attempt to locate the missing Optimus Prime. When Perceptor left them alone, however, the Turbomasters partook in a game of tear'n'chase. Flash evaded his pursuing team-mates, but accidentally drove into the Dimensional Interface Assembly, sending him somewhere very far from home... The Age of Wrath #3
Wings of Honor
Toys
Generation 1

- Scorch (Small Turbomaster, 1992)
- Accessories: Engine/missile launcher, 3 missiles
- Scorch transforms into a yellow Cybertronian pickup truck with a large jet engine mounted on the back. As with the other other carded Turbomasters, this engine becomes a powerful spring-loaded missile launcher, capable of firing one of three included small yellow missiles quite far.
- This figure was also released in Japan as the character Fire Road.
Timelines

- Double Punch and Turbomaster (BotCon 2010 souvenir set)
- Accessories: Turbine gun
- "Turbomaster" is a redeco of Universe Hound, available exclusively at BotCon 2010 with Double Punch and Shattered Glass Ravage. His vehicle mode resembles a Jeep Hurricane concept car, with a modified front section that avoids the trademark Jeep look with round headlights and vertical grille vents. He includes a (non-firing) rocket launcher that can be wielded in both vehicle and robot modes. Ravage can fit (in tape form) on the back of Turbomaster's vehicle mode. Other Mini-Cassette Transformers can fit there too, though not as well as the Ravage.
- The polybag packaging for this figure reads "Scorch w/Ravage", but the profile card uses the name "Turbomaster".
- Compared to the original Scorch, this version has its flames pointing the wrong way. All right.
Notes
Foreign names
- French: Dragon
