| The name or term "Quickmix" refers to more than one character or idea. For a list of other meanings, see Quickmix (disambiguation). |
- Quickmix is a Gigantion Autobot from the Cybertron portion of the Unicron Trilogy continuity family.
Quickmix is the right-hand-mech to Gigantion's leader Metroplex. He is cautious and a bit set in his ways, but he's also incredibly brave in battle and "knows a lot about a lot", as Metroplex puts it. But when things get hairy, he's also rational enough to know that sometimes, you do have to bend the rules.
- Japanese name: Blendar
Fiction
Cybertron cartoon
- Voice actor: Michael Daingerfield (US), Kenichi Mochizuki (Japan)
Toys
Cybertron
- Quickmix (Voyager, 2006)
- Accessories: Missile, double blaster, Giant Planet Cyber Key
- Quickmix transforms into a Cybertronic (Gigantian?) cement mixer, with a drum that actually turns (on a ratcheting joint, though). The top of the mixing assembly flips up to reveal a control panel for Quickmix's pack-in Mini-Con Stripmine to stand on; pegs fold out that plug into holes in Stripmine's arms for stability.

- In robot mode, plugging a Cyber Planet Key into the Key jack on his drum splits it open and reveals his spring-loaded missile launcher. The "pipe" piece on his left arm is actually removable, and can be repositioned on his arm, or even used as a hand-held "blaster" thanks to its Powerlinx peg. He also has an alternate "work" robot mode, which basically just pushes his hips up into his torso and raises his shoulders up as well. He comes with a silver-bordered Gigantion-style Cyber Planet Key, with the Key Code "ve37" on the back.
- In Japan, Quickmix was only available through e-Hobby's online ordering service, in Hasbro packaging, in October of 2006... ten months after Galaxy Force stopped in Japan.
Trivia
- Quickmix's "work mode" is usually only seen in the Cybertron cartoon as a "halfway" point in his vehicle-to-robot stock footage transformation sequence.

Closer inspection of the show reveals that Quickmix seems to alternate between his work and regular modes at random in specific scenes.
