Siren (G1)
| This article is about Siren the Headmaster. For Sireen the Micromaster, see Sireen. |
- Siren is an Autobot in the Generation One continuity family.
Siren's voice modulator goes to eleven - and stays there. Thanks to his ear-splitting upbringing in the Sonic Canyons, he operates at full volume all the time. While this may annoy his pals Nightbeat and Hosehead, it drives his partner Quig nuts. Eventually, Quig's efforts to teach Siren about the concept of an 'indoor voice' may succeed, but for now Siren doesn't really listen to him - either because he can't hear him, or because he doesn't want to.

Trivia
- Siren was originally conceived as either an upgrade or homage to Red Alert[1]. While the robot mode was largely blue unlike Red Alert, it featured a similar head to the early Autobot. The car mode featured a near carbon copy of Red Alert's paint scheme. The Red Alert references were dropped early in the design process.
- Not once in the original comic series is Siren shown to be a Headmaster.
