Six-Speed (Cybertron)
| This article is about the Cybertron Mini-Con. For the Beast Wars: Uprising Micromaster, see Six-Speed (BW). |
- Six-Speed is an Autobot-allied Gigantion Mini-Con from the Cybertron portion of the Unicron Trilogy continuity family.
Six-Speed is one of the three members of the Recon Mini-Con Team. Originally hailing from Gigantion, he's a curious sort, and often fairly sensitive. The mysteries of his new human friends' behaviors fascinate him, which has led to some embarrassing moments, like his attempt to figure out why humans wear clothes.
Fiction
Cybertron cartoon
After arriving on Earth and meeting the humans Lori, Coby, and Bud, Vector Prime summoned forth Jolt, Six-Speed, and Reverb. The three Mini-Cons' sudden appearance startled Coby, causing him to drop his satchel containing several mechanics magazines. From these magazines, Six-Speed scanned a racecar alternate mode. While Six-Speed and Reverb hugged Bud, Jolt recognized a logo on Lori's shirt as being the symbol for the Omega Lock. Vector Prime extrapolated that this signified that the Omega Lock was likely hidden on Earth. Fallen Inferno
As part of an ongoing effort to aid Autobot refugees in staying hidden from the locals, Six-Speed provided them with scans of mundane vehicle, replacing flashier alternate modes that drew too much attention to themselves. Hidden After the Autobots had secured their secret presence on Earth, they moved on to tracking down the Omega Lock, hidden away somewhere on the planet. A lead was uncovered pointing towards a museum in Mexico, where Six-Speed met with the rest of the team. He was sent clambering for cover when Starscream and Thundercracker attacked. During the ensuing battle, the Mini-Cons and the children were shielded from a stray shot by Landmine, who then helped his fellow Autobots in beating back the villains. Though the lead turned out to be a false start, Vector Prime was able to uncover the coordinates of the Speed Planet from the museum's imitation Omega Lock. Landmine

- Recon Mini-Con Team (Scout-class, 2005)
- Japanese ID number: GC-07
- Six-Speed transforms into a Toyota GT-One Le Mans style race car, sold only in a three-pack with his teammates Jolt and Reverb. The Hasbro and Takara versions are slightly different, the primary change being differing paint applications; Hasbro Six-Speed has more deco on the car-mode roof, while the Takara version lacks the roof deco but adds white to the front of the car mode.
- This mold was also used to make Socket, Platinum Element, Guardian Speed and Brake-Neck.
- Blit (Micron Galaxy, 2005)
- Micron Galaxy ID number: 3
- Part of the "Micron Galaxy" assortment of candy toys for Galaxy Force, this version of Six-Speed comes with a small plank of chewing gum. Though the mold is largely identical to the normal retail version, it is in fact an entirely new tooling, most notably not being gang-molded with his teammates.
- Shadow Recon Mini-Con Team (Scout class, 2006)
- Part of the final wave of Cybertron Scouts, the Recon Team was entirely redecoed in clear-blue, clear-colorless, clear-black, and opaque-black plastics, a "stealth" coloration.
