Trip-Up
From MediaWiki
- Trip-Up is an Autobot Micromaster from the Generation 1 continuity family.
Trip-Up of the Hot Rod Patrol is always getting into fights. He lets his fists do the talking in just about any situation, no matter how unnecessary violence — or even the threat of it — might be. Big Daddy doesn't seem to care much about his behavioral problem so long as it doesn't actively affect the team's performance on a mission... though is is mildly worried that Hubs might start thinking he should act like that too.
In Japan, the individual Micromasters received little to no individual characterization, being portrayed on the whole as childlike.

Trivia
- Most — if not all — of the toys pictured in the 1991 Hasbro Transformers catalog are unfinished prototypes or mock-ups, and a variety of differences from final product pop up. In Trip-Up's case, the main difference is that the catalog has him with a blue robot mode face rather than the final toy's white.
