Black Rodimus Convoy is a Decepticon from the Generation 1 continuity family.

Black Rodimus Convoy (ブラックロディマスコンボイ Burakku Rodimasu Konboi) is Rodimus Prime's insecurities, his reluctance at leadership and possessing the Matrix of Leadership, given form. Originally simply a opposite persona that began within Rodimus Prime's subconscious, stemming from his conflicted emotions at becoming Optimus Prime's successor, this dark double eventually developed a will of its own. As such, it became a mass of negative emotion that wavered on the line between life and death, attracting the attention of the ghostly Starscream. Thus, when Rodimus Prime was subliminally brought to an abandoned Decepticon base that contained the clone synthesizer. Using the device, Black Rodimus Convoy was able to realize a corporeal existence of his own. Jumping at Rodimus Prime's moment of surprise, the black Hot Rod ripped the Matrix from his heroic counterpart's chest. With it, he plans to rule all, Autobot, Decepticon, and even beyond.
