Chromia (ROTF)

The name or term "Chromia" refers to more than one character or idea. For a list of other meanings, see Chromia (disambiguation).

Chromia is an Autobot from the Revenge of the Fallen franchise in the live-action film continuity family.

Chromia is a tough bot, optics always scanning for the next fight. Naturally that means she and Ironhide agree on a lot of things. This combined with the countless battles they fought together in made for a friendship that has lasted centuries. When the conflict on Earth escalated, both seasoned warriors were pleased to be working together again.

Fiction

Live-action film continuity

Though Chromia's toy gets its own name and personality, in the film itself, all three motorcycles are simply components of Arcee. For information on Arcee's exploits, check out her article.

But have you seen her juggling act?

• Chromia (2009)
  • Japanese ID number: RA-11
  • Accessories: Missile, display stand

Chromia converts from a motorcycle to... a unicycle. Her vehicle mode weapon can plug into the right arm to serve as a handheld weapon or attach as a display stand for either mode, ironically making a unicycle robot one of the most stable robot-modes. In robot mode, there is a spring-loaded missile between the tailpipes on Chromia's left hand in addition to the aforementioned non-firing blaster-stand. There is also a piece on the bottom of the vehicle mode (or back of the robot mode) that folds out, but there is no indication in the instructions as to what this piece is for.

While the instructions and box depict the motorcycle seat remaining flat so that it ends up covering the bottom wheel, the robot mode more closely resembles the movie design if the seat is folded in and locked into a slot on the motorcycle's bottom. Furthermore, while it is not mentioned in the instructions, the box depicts that the stand can be attached backwards and rotated up so that it acts as a prop for the toy, allowing the wheel to actually touch the ground, and letting the toy look from the front like it is unsupported.

Notes

• Chromia is only her own character in toy form; in all other media where she appears, she is nothing more than an extension of Arcee.
• The three bike girls were originally going to combine into a larger robot-form, but this was cut from the final movie, while the toys are still capable of this combination.
