Fiction

Cyberverse cartoon

Voice actor: Tomas Virgadula (English), Chinatsu Akasaki (Japanese)

Thrust was one of the Seekers sent to Earth under Slipstream's command; he accompanied Acid Storm in an attempt to recover the scout ship that Windblade and Bumblebee had stolen. Windblade was able to take off before they could infiltrate the ship, and a dogfight ensued, with the two Seekers being joined by their commander Slipstream. Unfortunately for Thrust, he and Acid Storm were taken out of the fight when Windblade discovered the ship's armament array, a brace of missiles sending the two subordinate Seekers spiraling down to Earth.

• Seekers Sinister Strikeforce (Multi-pack, 2020)
  • Action Attack: "Nova Seeker Missile"

Cyberverse Thrust is a redeco of Warrior Class "Cybertronian Mode" Starscream, transforming into a Cybertronian jet that resembles the Vic Viper T-301 from Gradius V. His Nova Seeker Missile Action Attack flips his null rays up and forward.

Thrust was released exclusively at Target with fellow Seekers Skywarp, Thundercracker, and Starscream, all of whom were also redecoed from the same Starscream figure. The product was first sighted in July 2020 with no prior announcement from Hasbro.

Notes

• Unlike Ramjet and Dirge, Cyberverse Thrust does not have a conehead. The reason for this is unknown; story editor Randolph Heard hinted at it becoming significant in a future storyline, but this did not come to fruition.
• Thrust was made female in the Japanese dub of Cyberverse, inverting the recurring trend of female characters being made male in several Japanese Transformers dubs. Additionally, their non-conehead status led Takara to rename them Red Wing.

Foreign names
