Chip Chase
- Chip is a human character from Generation 1.
Chip Chase is a human ally of the Autobots and Spike Witwicky's best friend. Suffering from some unknown malady, Chip is confined to a wheelchair. He isn't defined by his disability though, but rather by his geeky genius-level skills with computers, programming, and electronics.
He also has tremendous upper body strength.
Fiction
US cartoon
Voice actor: Michael Horton (US), Keiichi Nanba (Japan)
First appearance: Roll For It
Chip and Carly never appeared in the same episode during the entire US run.
Chip has a remarkably advanced (or at least ridiculously expensive) desktop computer for 1984. It contains among other things, a 16 Million color monitor (Chip's view of the Decepticons was no different than Prowl's), a microphone, dial up networking, speakers, and a soundcard that could interpret Prowl's speech. Maybe he's friends with Ethan Zachary.
Chip once tore a floppy disk apart with his bare hands.

(Note: the Scramble City OVA takes place after the events of the second season of the US cartoon, but before The Transformers: The Movie.)
Chip can be seen alongside Spike, Sparkplug and Carly helping to construct Autobot City.
