The name or term "Brimstone" refers to more than one character or idea. For a list of other meanings, see Brimstone (disambiguation).
Brimstone is a Decepticon from the Wings of Honor portion of the Generation 1 continuity family. His toy, however, was released under the Universe banner: Armada series.

The mighty dragon Smog. [sic]

A member of the Decepticon-allied Ransack Team, Brimstone is trained for toxic warfare from the air. (Sounds a little familiar...) He's prodigiously strong, extremely durable, impressively fast and packs a surprising amount of firepower for a mini-con. Luckily for the Autobots and their allies, he doesn't have the intelligence, courage, or skill to back any of those abilities up.[1]

  • Mini-Con 12-Pack (Multi-pack, 2008)
    • Series: Armada Series
Brimstone is a redeco of Classics Nightscream, in sludge green and off yellow, transforming into a winged dragon. He was originally available only as part of a K-Mart exclusive twelve-pack along with Backstop, Blight, Bodyblock, Boltflash, Cloudraker, Flatfoot, Heavytread, Knockdown, Makeshift, Skyhammer, and Suppressor.
This mold was also used to make Dragoyell.


  • Brimstone (Mini-Con, 2009)
Brimstone was also sold on an individual card in the US, first through discount chains like Big Lots! and then as part of the holiday toy stock up at Shop and Stop and Family Dollar. This release is identical to the multi-pack version.


  • Brimstone (Mini-Con w/ candy, 2010)
Brimstone, along with the other eleven Mini-Cons in his original case, was made available in the UK packaged in individual bags with "energon fizzy jellies" candies. This version of Brimstone however is cast and painted in brighter, more primary shades of green.
