Brimstone (Cybertron)
| The name or term "Brimstone" refers to more than one character or idea. For a list of other meanings, see Brimstone (disambiguation). |
- Brimstone is a Jungle Planet Decepticon from the Cybertron portion of the Unicron Trilogy continuity family.
Brimstone isn't much for thinking. He's more comfortable taking orders from his leader Scourge, but when left on his own, would rather simply follow Undermine's lead. He really enjoys his position as one of Scourge's right-claw mechs, since it gives him an unrivaled opportunity to beat people up without reprisal.
About the only thing Brimstone's brain is good for is playing Praxus Fold 'Em. He and Undermine typically play during quiet nights in the Jungle Temple, with chores as the high stakes.

Brimstone was a denizen of Jungle Planet, one of Scourge's acolytes who attended to him at the Jungle Temple. Although he missed Megatron's arrival, he was present to observe a sparring match between Megatron and Scourge, and was impressed by the Decepticon's control and power. Deep Later, Brimstone was going for a walk in the park with his friends when some loud-mouthed Humvee had to challenge Scourge's strength. Never a good idea. Race Brimstone and Undermine watched eagerly as Scourge pounded on Overhaul, and didn't notice Snarl sneak off to help the interloper. When Overhaul returned for a second match, Scourge initially said he couldn't be bothered to fight the Autobot. He changed his tune after Brimstone and Undermine were battered aside by Overhaul as proof of his worthiness in battle. Detour
When Optimus Prime arrived on Jungle Planet, Brimstone journeyed out to confront the Autobot leader with Scourge. Unwilling to negotiate with anyone who hadn't proved their strength in battle, Scourge demanded that the Autobots and Decepticons fight before he heard any more about the Cyber Planet Key quest. Brimstone and Undermine kept Snarl and Backstop out of the contest at first, but soon it broke into a free-for-all with the Jungle Planet residents each aiding the Autobot and Decepticon camps.

Toys
Cybertron
- Brimstone (Deluxe class, 2005)
- Japanese ID number: GD-10
- Accessories: Jungle Cyber Planet Key
- As part of the Jungle Planet theme, Brimstone transforms into a robotic pterodactyl. Plugging a Cyber Planet Key into his back releases a pair of spring-loaded blades from his wings, a gimmick available in both modes. He comes with a silver-border Jungle-type Cyber Planet Key; the Hasbro version has the Key Code "d0h3" stamped on the back.
- The Takara and Hasbro versions have a variety of small color differences, largely in the realm of different shades of the same colors.
- Sideways, Brimstone, Thunderblast ("Value Pack", 2005)
- Brimstone was also available in a Toys "R" Us exclusive "Value Pack" alongside Sideways and Thunderblast; all three normally-carded toys were put in a large cardboard "sleeve" that let the bubbles stick out. This set retailed for $29.99... and since Deluxes were $9.99... not much of a "value" there.
