Tracer (Micromaster)
| The name or term "Tracer" refers to more than one character or idea. For a list of other meanings, see Tracer (disambiguation). |
- Tracer is a Decepticon Micromaster from the Generation 1 continuity family.
Tracer is an integral part of the Military Patrol, swooping ahead of his teammates to scout out the opposition, and soften them up. He actually respects team leader Bombshock (and not just out of fear!), but still thinks he should lead the unit. Thus, he may be the only ambitious Decepticon who tries to get his superior promoted, rather than "unexpectedly dead".[1]
