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.

• Mini-Con Class 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)

In the UK, all twelve Mini-Cons from the original "Mini-Con Class 12 Pack" set were released in individual blind-packed bags with "energon fizzy sweets" candies, distributed by The Little Factory Ltd. Though all of these Mini-Cons are actually new molds with numerous tiny differences from the originals, Brimstone is one of the few toys with a major change; this version is cast in much brighter, more primary shades of green. His paint operations, however, use the same desaturated shades of green as the original.
