Roughstuff is a Decepticon Micromaster in the Generation 1 continuity family.

Roughstuff is the poster-child for "trigger-happy". (Actually, Triggerhappy is the poster-child for "trigger-happy", but Roughstuff can be the poster-nephew, or something.) At the slightest hint of a target, he'll fire. "Verifying the target" and "aiming" are for sissy-bots.

In a rare sign of wisdom, his superiors have transferred him very far from the front lines. This has just made him even more hungry for things to shoot at.[1]


French-Canadian name: Brutus
European-market name: Tornado

Roughstuff transforms into a green and blue military truck cab of undetermined, possibly made-up model. The truck tows the Military Transport trailer/jet which looks like... a folded up jet, rather than a trailer transporting some kind of missile launcher. Roughstuff's robot mode is unusual in that the nearly his entire vehicle mode is on his back. The trailer turns into a weird jet thing. Roughstuff can sit in the rear area of the vehicle, behind a handle bar.
This toy was sold in Japan as the Autobot Missile Bull.
