Spy Streak doesn't have much of a personality, but he certainly is tenacious. "Retreat" is a term he is unfamiliar with. Specialized armor, flying skill and a powerful armament assures he is able to hold his own in most fights he finds himself in.

To be fair, he has no hands, just a missile launcher and a giant clamp. His career options were pretty limited.

Fiction

Universe: The Wreckers

I'll take stupid questions for $500.

Spy Streak was a Vehicon general created by Megatron to help establish air superiority in the fight against the ever-growing number of Maximals, Wreckers, and other insurgents on Cybertron.

Megatron sent Spy Streak and his stealth drones to fight alongside Mirage, Scavenger, Blastcharge, and Quake Vehicon drones to guard an old Autobot shuttle from the Wreckers, who wished to use it to get offworld. Spy Streak's drones proved to be inferior to the Decepticons Cyclonus and Skywarp and the Predacon Rotorbolt, and the Wreckers soon had control of the sky.

As the battle drew to a close and the Wreckers boarded the shuttle, Spy Streak was pinned under some debris after a shot from Arcee. He could only look on in horror and disbelief as the shuttle blasted off, and the complex was consumed by a gigantic explosion from a bomb left by Cyclonus. Spy Streak was presumably destroyed in the blast. Departure

• Spy Streak (Basic, 2001)
  • Accessories: 2 missiles

Spy Streak is an olive, red and yellow Cybertronic jet, with a shape similar to an SR-71 Blackbird (but covered in tech greebling). As Spy Streak was released in the "Battle for the Spark" portion of the Beast Machines toyline, his spark crystal and its housing are used to activate his nosecone-claw gimmick. In jet mode, this gimmick is linked up to his twin missile launcher, firing the missiles as the claw opens.

This mold was also used to make Robots in Disguise Nightcruz and Universe Fireflight.
