Fiction

S.T.A.R.S. pack-in flyers

The Powerdashers featured in two early recruiting messages sent to humans by the Autobots. The messages were almost identical in content, claiming that the Autobots marooned on Earth were becoming desperate in their battle against the Decepticons, sending an S.O.S. to Cybertron even though they didn't know if anyone would be there to receive it. Luckily, their plea was answered in the form of the Powerdashers, Omnibots, and Time Warriors. The only Powerdasher seen was the jet-form model, but the message noted that the Powerdashers' state of constant evolution meant that they might not look the same later.

Toys

Generation 1

• Powerdasher (Mail-order, 1984)

This version of the Powerdasher transforms into a Cybertronic race car, featuring a pull-back motor in vehicle mode, allowing it to quickly roll forward across flat surfaces. It was only available as a mail-order exclusive from Hasbro, costing $3 and 2 Robot Points. The jet-mode Powerdasher was the only one pictured in the ads, but the type you got ended up being random. The jet-form Powerdasher appears to be the most common model sent, however.

Notes

• The F1 Powerdasher was originally a Diaclone toy called the "F-1 Dasher".
• Aragon's name comes from the name given to the Diakron, GiG Italian Trasformer and Joustra French release of the toy.
• The Powerdashers were the first Cybertronian (well, non-Earthly) vehicular toys released—and were released in 1984, to boot.
