Brawn (SG)
| This article is about the evil Autobot. For his heroic counterpart, see Brawn (G1). For a list of other meanings, see Brawn (disambiguation). |
- Brawn is an evil Autobot from the "Shattered Glass" continuity family.
This character has no official visual representation in any Transformers product or media... yet, at least.
Icy and detached, Brawn is a brawler who'll punch you in the face with his nucleon shock gauntlets.
Fiction
Shattered Glass
Brawn was onboard the Ark when it traveled to Earth and crashed into the ocean off the United States' west coast. He ended up later being part of the group of Autobots that met up with Rodimus when the wayward Autobot (who had been the only one to reach an escape pod before the crash) finally arrived at the Ark's crash site. Goldbug initially ordered Brawn to transform Rodimus forcibly back to robot mode, then dismember him, but Rodimus was able to talk his way out of it before Brawn could do the deed.
He then was part of the assault force that hijacked the Burpleson Air Force Base so Rodimus could fulfill his plan to use the humans' Global Orbital Defense Satellites to hold the Earth hostage unless they met his demands.
Afterwards, when the Decepticons tried having Soundwave and their human allies infiltrate the base with a cover story, Brawn was assigned to be their "chaperone". Soundwave decided to signal for an all-out attack as a distraction, which proved to be successful, as Brawn ended up leaving them to defend against the assault. Eye in the Sky
Toys
Transformers (2007)
- Strongarm (Scout, 2007)
- Accessories: Crane boom/rifle, spare tire halves, Autobot-type energon star
- Strongarm is a redeco of the Energon series Strongarm toy, transforming into a Cybertronic jeep. He has a clear-plastic "energon" crane-boom/rifle and spare tire which can combine to form a large axe.
- This mold was also used to make Fallback and Crosshairs. The axe mold was separated and used for multiple Takara promotional energon weapons, as well as being released in reddish-orange with the Japanese "Wild" redeco of Energon Ironhide. He was also repurposed as Shattered Glass Brawn.
Notes
- The concept of Brawn's gauntlets likely stems from the unreleased Brawn figure, which would also have been based on the Strongarm toy and featured snap-on energon gauntlets.
