Nightracer (G1)

This article is about the Decepticon that was around a long time ago. For her clone from Generation 2, see Nightracer (G2).

Nightracer is a Decepticon from the Generation 1 continuity family.

I'm just a placeholder image, honest.

We don't know much about Nightracer except that she existed long ago, faded into myth, and was later cloned.

Fiction

Wings Universe

Template:Askvectorprime Nightracer was a legendary sharpshooter. She could hit a speeding target the size of a rustbug from a distance of over 15 hics, and that includes while she was dodging. Even Vector Prime admitted that he admired her skill, if not the use she put it to. Though the other Decepticons considered her aloof. In 2012, Jhiaxus had the Battlechargers retrieve several personality components from within Cybertron, one of which was Nightracer's. A Flash Forward, Part 2

Notes

• A screencap of Nightbird from the cartoon was used to represent the original Nightracer since her head was a close fit and the art style matched the images of Soundwave and Frenzy next to her. According to Pete Sinclair and Jesse Wittenrich, the image wasn't supposed to be recognizable as Nightbird once it was obscured by Sky-Byte, but either Sky-Byte didn't cover her up in a way that would obscure her enough, or maybe we're just that good. She's not intended to be the same character as Nightbird.
• While what the original Nightracer's body looked like is a mystery, it's probable that she didn't look like the BotCon Go-Bots toy, considering none of the other Go-Bot clones look like their original bodies, either.
