Overcharge (G1)

Overcharges are Quintesson creations from the Generation 1 continuity.

Second-most unfortunately-named exclusive ever... and there's a chance it was intentional.

The Overcharges are the latest model of Quintesson mass-produced warrior-drone, using technologies gleaned from the Decepticons. Produced in countless numbers and sold to whatever buyers can cough up the credits, Overcharges are strong, fast, powerful, and in the wrong hands, can overrun worlds.

Generation 1

• Overcharge (Triple Changer, 2005)

Japanese ID number: 72

An e-Hobby exclusive redeco of the Blitzwing mold in its original pre-Transformers Diaclone colors, Blitzwing transforms from robot mode to a Tipe 74 tank or a MIG-25 fighter jet. It came with an extra decal sheet with multiple faction logos (including severl totally new ones) so it could be assigned to different armies: Autobot, Decepticon, Quintesson/Terrabot, "Ancient", EDC, and "Unicron Herald" (using the Blentron sigil).

Trivia

While the toy's color scheme is based on the mold's original Diaclone colors, the "character" appears to be based on the mass of off-color Blitzwing-model tanks seen in the opening to the third season of the Generation 1 cartoon.
