The name or term "High Wire" refers to more than one character or idea. For a list of other meanings, see High Wire (disambiguation).
High Wire is an Autobot from an undetermined continuity in the Speed Stars line.
Once you see that angry face on his torso, you can't unsee it.

High Wire doesn't get why it's his problem that humans get uneasy around giant alien robots, but those annoying pencil-pushers in charge think otherwise and have him under strict orders to stay in motorcycle mode at all times. He absolutely hates this, and often rebels against authority by revealing his hidden weapons just to shock random passerbys.

"HEY, OLD PEOPLE, BOOGA BOOGA! Ahaha... god I hate this job."

Stealth Force

  • High Wire (Motorcycle, 2010)
Part of the first wave of the small "Motorcycle" size class of the Speed Stars "Stealth Force" line, High Wire is a sport racing motorcyle of indeterminate model without a robot mode. Instead, he features an attack mode with multiple pop-out (non-firing) weapons activated by pulling his rear wheel. His front housing opens up to reveal a pair of blasters on each side, and the top reveals a large cannon. His seat flips up to reveal a quad-blaster (which doesn't have a clear firing angle), and his taillights extend out.


Notes

  • As with a lot of new characters introduced in the 2010~2011 toy lines, High Wire's bio info does not have any information that ties him to a specific franchise. His package art is, however, very much in the style of the live-action film series robots.
  • High Wire is almost at perfect scale for use with G.I. Joe 3 3/4-inch action figures.
