"You're such a coward Wally!"

(Note: Chromedome is one of those fun characters whose American and Japanese incarnations were very different. See individual fiction entries below for continuity specific profiles.)

Fiction

Marvel comic

Chomedome is an academic at heart. He only joined the war effort after the Decepticons destroyed Cybertron's Institute for Higher Programming where he did his work. He's tried to use his skills as a programmer to bring an end to the war, but so far has only succeeded in instigating a programming "arms" race. Something of a classic computer programming nerd, he's often a frustration to his cool and very image conscious Nebulan Headmaster partner Stylor.

American cartoon

Chromedome was one of the many Transformers that only made his American cartoon debut during The Rebirth.

After the Decepticons broke into The Plasma Energy Chamber, unleashing waves of powerful Plasma energy, Chromedome was amongst the group of Autobots flung half-way across the galaxy to Nebulos. After a misunderstanding, namely the Nebulan's threatening to detonate bombs they had attatched to the Autobots after their capture, Chromedome willingly became a Headmaster. He presumably joined the rest of the Autobots in celebration after Scorponok was flung into space and a new Golden Age begun on Cybertron.

Headmasters cartoon

Voice actor: Hideyuki Hori

While Chromedome was a far-background character in America, In Japan's Headmasters series, he was Fortress Maximus's 2nd in command, and field commander, leading crack troupe of Headmaster soldiers with about one personality between the four of them. Chromedome was notable for being slightly brasher than the rest of this brash lot. Brasher than Armada's Hot Shot. That's pretty darn brash. Brash.
