Tailwind (G1)
- Tailwind is a Decepticon Micromaster in the Generation 1 continuity family.
Of the scheming junior members of the Air Strike Patrol, Tailwind is the one most likely to seize control of the unit. This is because he knows how to keep his mouth shut, and take a short-term loss for long-term gain.[1]
