Firestar (G1)
Firestar is an Autobot from the Generation One universe.
Firestar was one of the members of Elita-1's female Autobot resistance after the departure of the Ark from Cybertron. Practical and unprepossessing, she was nonetheless particularly useful during thefts of Decepticon Energon cubes, as her vehicle mode was capable of transporting large numbers of them.
Firestar was a close friend of Ironhide and Chromia, and entrusted the safety of her protege Flareup to the latter.

Firestar was seen only once in the original cartoon. She participated in a raid on one of Shockwave's Energon supply stores, and fell under attack when the group was discovered thanks to Moonracer's carelessness. All of them survived, and the team returned to their hidden base with the stolen Energon.
The Decepticons attacked again, however, and this time the resistance was saved only by the intervention of Optimus Prime and a group of the Earth-based Autobots. Firestar was briefly reunited with Inferno, and together they fought Shockwave alongside the rest of Prime and Elita-1's forces. She remained behind with the other females when Prime's team returned to Earth.
Timelines Continuity
According to Ben Yee, Firestar was originally planned to have died prior to the events of Descent Into Evil. However, this was intentionally omitted from the final version of the convention set. Consequently, her final fate is unknown.
