| The name or term "Landslide" refers to more than one character or idea. For a list of other meanings, see Landslide (disambiguation). |
- Landslide is a Mini-Con from the Cybertron portion of the Unicron Trilogy continuity family.
(Landslide is the yellow dude at center.)
Landslide has perfected patience and inner peace. He's gotten so good at it that with the proper meditation, his core programming is capable of leaving his bodyframe and enter astral space. The quiet and solitude of Earth's Moon is perfect for his contemplation of the inner self and that which lies beyond the physical world.
Or, it would be, if the Lunar Assault Mini-Con Team weren't there, particularly Kobushi, who has decided to make Landslide his latest target. But Landslide doesn't let this bother him. In fact, his inner calmness has enabled him to create his own form of defensive martial arts that the hot-headed Kobushi may never understand or overcome.
Fiction
Cybertron comic
During the Mini-Con Civil War, Landslide and the rest of the Exploration Mini-Con Team were part of Thrust's Decepticon-allied faction, which is odd for a group with Autobot symbols all over themselves. Regardless, Landslide jumped Perceptor with unknown results, and was later part of the final rush against the Mini-Con Council of Sages and their Autobot allies.
Their secret ally, Unicron, ultimately turned against them. Revelations Part 5
The Exploration Team being among the bad guys is most likely a mistake caused by the comic being written with the original plan for the mold-sets in mind... with the Destruction Mini-Con Team molds being used for the Decepticon Lunar Assault Team.
Toys
Cybertron
- Kobushi vs. Landslide (Mini-Con 2-pack, 2005)

- This mold was also used to make Galaxy Force Zigzag.
