Misfire (G1)
- Misfire is a Decepticon Targetmaster (presumably under a very wide definition of "master") in the Generation 1 continuity family.
Misfire is the kind of guy you want on the Decepticons' side--if you're an Autobot, that is. He couldn't hit the broad side of Broadside. He claims his aim is getting better. What was it like before?!
Together with his Targetmaster partner Aimless, he's a danger to himself and others. Mostly others.
- French-Canadian name: Longfeu
- Italian name: Elektro

Misfire likes his partners to have short, memorable names.
Headmasters (Japan)
Marvel Comics continuity
For some reason, when Scorponok was choosing troops who might benefit from being re-engineered as a Targetmaster with greater shooting ability, he thought of Misfire.
After the Autobot Highbrow stole Scorponok's head, Misfire led a group of Decepticons to recover their leader. Almost immediately after getting Zarak and Scorponok reattached, Misfire and his companions were cast into limbo to make room for the time-travelling Soundwave and Terrorcons from 2009.
Misfire was damaged to a unknown extent when a surface-to-air cannon manned by Finback overloaded and exploded. Seeing as they were fighting Unicron, and Misfire was never seen again after that point...well, fill in the blanks.
