Timelines

Bonesaw is ready!

• The Stunti-Con-Job (BotCon 2011 box set)
  • Accessories: axe/backpack, water cannon

The Motormaster is a retool of Voyager Class Optimus Prime, who transforms into a futuristic Earth-mode fire truck (well, the front half of one, at least). His rear portion includes a giant extinguisher cannon, which can become a hand weapon and really squirts water. His chunk of trailer-facade also transforms into a giant double-bladed axe. These weapons can store on his back, giving the appearance of wings and a jet pack. The Motormaster also has an Automorph feature: Pressing a button on his butt flips down and rotates his lower body into the proper position for robot mode.

The Motormaster joins the other four Stunticons, Dead End, Breakdown, Drag Strip, and Wildrider in BotCon 2011's box set.

Notes

SPOILERS

• The Motormaster was the final toy to be revealed for the BotCon 2011 box set, on Thursday, February 24, 2011.
• In the early stages of Transformers Animated, redeco possibilities were brainstormed using the existing character models. Concepts for Motormaster and Ultra Magnus, using an early character model for Optimus Prime, were published in Transformers Animated: The AllSpark Almanac. These colors seem to have served as inspiration for the later BotCon toy.
• When Fun Publications got their samples in from the factory, it had a damaging mark to discourage aftermarket sale due to theft. Fun Publications had to use photoshop to recreate the face for everyone else to see.
• According to Derrick Wyatt, Motormaster sounds like "Macho Man" Randy Savage, and his appearance is based on a "wrestler bad guy" archetype.
• Motormaster appears with Optimus Prime, Sari Sumdac, and Shattered Glass Sari in a special illustration in Transformers Generations 2011 vol. 1.
