This article is about the Motorvator. For the Technobot, see Lightspeed (G1) (Technobot).

Lightspeed is an Autobot from the Generation 1 continuity.

The Motorvator's scout and messenger, Lightspeed more than lives up to his name. Literally. His groundspeed actually exceeds the speed of light itself! This, combined with a specially equipped Energon figure outfitted with a micro lens photo-recorder, makes him perfect for conducting the team's recon. Astonishing speed is not displayed solely by his vehicle mode, however. In robot mode he is able to move his jousting laserblade so fast, it becomes invisible. These abilities make Lightspeed quite a valuable asset for the Motorvators in clashes with their slowing-moving Decepticon rival, Overlord.


Toys

  • Lightspeed
Lightspeed's only toy was a redeco of the Brainmaster Braver. The redecoing wasn't too extreme, as the plastic on Lightspeed was a lighter shade than the plastic on Braver, along with diffrent colored paint and stickers. Like the other Motorvators, Lightspeed lacks the Combiner kibble needed to form a Motorvator version of Road Caesar
Lightspeed was released in Europe in 1991, and was also released in European packageing in Japan, much like the later USA Editions.
