==Fiction==
===Wings of Honor===
In ancient times, Brimstone attacked the city [[Hyperious]], his flame leaving "death and blackness" everywhere it touched. After a battle, Brimstone was eventually defeated. The Ancients removed his personality component and placed it in a huge urn, which was located in the city of [[Median]], and which was inscribed with dire warnings. Many years later, the "[[Heart of the Dragon]]" was found by an [[Autobot]] archeological team.
 
Unfortunately [[Rage]] and his band of [[Decepticon]]s found out about it, and stole the contents of the urn. Rage had it placed in a small dragon body as an initial test. Despite his size, Brimstone's [[Fire-breath|flame breath]] was capable of completely disintegrating anything it touched, and both the [[Combaticon (G1)|Combaticon]]s and [[Metalhawk]]'s [[Cybertron Elite Guard|Elite Guard]] squad were forced to retreat under his onslaught. They hit Brimstone with [[Ironfist (G1)|Ironfist]]'s entire stock of explosive, but the dragon emerged from the explosion intact. All was not lost for the Elite Guard—the diminutive body housing Brimstone was insufficient to contain the Decepticon's energies. The Autobots escaped from the [[Metrotitan (Zone)|Metrotitan]] before Brimstone reached critical and exploded, taking out the entire structure and Rage's forces as well. {{storylink|Flames of Yesterday}}

Brimstone is a Decepticon Mini-Con from the Unicron Trilogy continuity family.

A member of the Decepticon-allied Ransack Team, Brimstone is trained for toxic warfare from the air. He's prodigiously strong, extremely durable, impressively fast and packs a surprising amount of firepower for a Mini-Con. Luckily for the Autobots and their allies, he doesn't have the intelligence, courage, or skill to back any of those abilities up.[1]

Toys

Universe (2008)

File:Universe brimstone beast.jpg
Puff the Tragic Dragon.
  • Mini-Con Class 12 Pack (Multi-pack, 2008)
    • Series: Armada Series
Brimstone is a redeco of Classics Nightscream, in sludge green and off yellow, transforming into a winged dragon. He was originally available only as part of a K-Mart exclusive twelve-pack along with Backstop, Blight, Bodyblock, Boltflash, Cloudraker, Flatfoot, Heavytread, Knockdown, Makeshift, Skyhammer, and Suppressor.
This toy was repurposed as Generation 1 Brimstone. This mold was also used to make Dragoyell.


  • Brimstone (Mini-Con, 2009)
Brimstone was also sold on an individual card in the US, first through discount chains like Big Lots! and then as part of the holiday toy stock up at Shop and Stop and Family Dollar. This release is identical to the multi-pack version.


  • Brimstone (Mini-Con w/ candy, 2010)
In the UK, all twelve Mini-Cons from the original "Mini-Con Class 12 Pack" set were released in individual blind-packed bags with "energon fizzy sweets" candies, distributed by The Little Factory Ltd. Though all of these Mini-Cons are actually new molds with numerous tiny differences from the originals, Brimstone is one of the few toys with a major change; this version is cast in much brighter, more primary shades of green. His paint operations, however, use the same desaturated shades of green as the original.
