Fireflight (G1)
| The name or term "Fireflight" refers to more than one character or idea. For a list of other meanings, see Fireflight (disambiguation). |
- Fireflight is an Aerialbot and an Autobot in the Generation 1 continuity family.
Fireflight combines a childlike sense of wonder with the soul of a daydreamer, resulting, unfortunately, in one major menace to airborne navigation. Near collisions and crashes come fast and frequent when he's around. If Aerialbots had to be certified to take to the air he'd have been grounded for life long ago. Fireflight means well and has a good heart, he just can't help losing himself in the beauty of the world when seen from the sky. It's hard for his teammates to get too mad at someone so filled with wonder and innocence, but at the same time it's also hard to fly next to someone whose never paying any attention to where he's going.
Fireflight combines with his fellow Aerialbots to form Superion.
