Singe is a Decepticon-allied Nebulan Targetmaster from the Generation 1 continuity family.
He would do anything for love—but he won't do that.

Singe may be the only being to have joined the Decepticons for love. Years ago, Singe lost his lover Llyra to Galen, leaving him crushed. When his rival joined the Autobots, Singe signed up with Llyra's father, Lord Zarak, and the Decepticons, hoping to slay Galen and win back Llyra's heart. The binary-bonding process made the callow playboy into a double-barreled nuclear-powered flamethrower, capable of liquefying metal and barbecuing Galen alive. But the Decepticons' defeat and subsequent exile from Nebulos left Singe bitter, hateful, and unfulfilled. To make matters worse, Galen died before he could kill him! Even the company of his partners Spinister and Hairsplitter can't shake his loneliness.

Singe's nature varies. In some universes he is an organic Nebulan; in others he is a robotic Cybertronian.

Commercial appearances

Spinister wielded both Singe and Hairsplitter in a battle against the three Autobot Double Targetmasters, firing them both wildly in their gun modes while chasing down his targets. Double Targetmasters commercial

  • Singe (Battle Master, 2019)
    • ID number: WFC-S44
    • Japanese ID number: SG-??
    • Japanese release date: TBA
    • Accessories: Cannon, 2 "Fire Blasts"
Part of the fourth wave of Siege Battle Masters, Singe is a redeco of Firedrive with Aimless' Fire Blast effects, and he transforms from robot to "Duo-Charge Electrostatic Photon Cannon" in 5 steps. As a part of the C.O.M.B.A.T. System, he includes two "Fire Blast" effect pieces that can be used to simulate his blaster mode firing, and can slot onto the various hardpoints found on other figures and weaponry from the same subline to simulate blaster fire or explosions. The outer peg of the effect parts can also attach to 5 mm ports. The actual gun barrel piece can detach from the back, revealing a 3 mm peg, and connect to his arm like a cannon. Due to the size of the piece compared to Singe, attaching Fire Blast parts to his barrels will cause the figure to become too unbalanced to stand. If you choose, you can pair him with any version of Spinister, including his most recent Siege figure.
