Respect my authori-tah!

During a major battle, Wheeljack had become trapped under some rubble in the middle of an inferno. Hot Shot could not free his friend, and left, promising to return with help.

However, Hot Shot's unit commander and his subordinate refused to help Wheeljack, saying that the flames were too hot to enter. Hot Shot objected and attempted to run back in, only to be obstructed by his fellow soldier and struck down by his officer. The officer cited that they could not risk the unit to save only one 'bot.

Hot Shot eventually got up, and despite the warnings of a court-martial, raced back into the flames hoping to save his friend.

Hot Shot failed and fainted in the fires. The Autobot officer pulled him out, but Hot Shot was put under Optimus Prime's direct command after this event. Past

Autobot Commander

This officer's own superior is a large, powerful-looking robot. It was he who suggested that Hot Shot take the rookie Wheeljack under his wing - a suggestion that ultimately ended in a tragedy which would come back to haunt Hot Shot years later.

We thought your friend died in the flames, turns out you're the one he blames!

Subordinate

The officer's subordinate does not question his orders. His voice is gruff, and he doesn't rhyme, despite looking like a buff Wheelie.

Notes

• Like many Armada generics, these robots use Generation 1 character models. The Autobot officer uses the recolored animation model of Sureshot—but the more toy-based Headmasters model rather than the American comic model. Meanwhile, his superior uses the Headmasters model of Fortress Maximus, while his subordinate uses Wheelie's model.
