Camshaft (G1)

Camshaft is an Autobot and an Omnibot from Generation 1 continuity.

Camshift is on the right, which is left in Japan.

Camshaft honestly believes the Decepticons must be stopped, strongly enough that he enlisted in the Autobot army. He has no intention, however, of dieing for the cause. Camshaft will never be accused of battlefield heroics. He's very highly intelligent and uses that intellect to avoid risk and danger whenever possible. This has the added side-effect of making him an excellent scout.

As an Omnibot he has a secondary configuration to his vehicle mode in which a white noise scrambler dish deploys from the rear if of his car.

Japanese name: Downshift
