Over-Run (G1)
| This article is about the Autobot Action Master. For the Mini-Con jet/spaceship, see Over-Run (Armada). |
- Over-Run is a Autobot Action Master in the Generation 1 continuity family.
A fiercely individual perfectionist, dominering and arrogant (even downright tyranical) Over-Run acts like the air-war with the Decepticons is his own personal resposibility, and he'll yell angry instructions or abuse at anyone, of any rank, he sees as getting in the way of his winning it. Needless to say this makes him pretty unpopular with the other airborn Autobots. If he wasn't a very effective warrior in an arena where they are traditionally outmatched, it's unlikely Over-run would be anywhere but in the brig by now. He IS dedicated to the Autobot cause though, he just sees beating the Decepticons as far more important than rudenss and the feeling of his inferior comrades. He'll apologize after the war ends. Maybe.
He rules the skies in his Attack Copter.

Toys
Generation 1
- Over-Run (Action Master Action Blaster Vehicle, 1990)
- Accessories: Rotary Photon Pulse Laser Cannon, 2 x Side Concussion Cannons (left and right), 2 x Magnetic Missiles, engine cover, rotor
- Over-Run is unusual for an Action Master due to his rather monochromatic colour scheme, as he is made primarily out of a single shade of red plastic. All of his other colours are paint applications. Over-Run's sculpt suggests that before becoming an Action Master, he once transformed into a cybertronic helicopter, due to the canopy and rotorshaft details on his torso. Appropriately, Action Master vehicle is a small attack helicopter, and when not using the helicopter as his ride, Over-Run wields the vehicle's rotary photon pulse laser cannon and engine cover as weapon and shield respectively.
- Over-Run can ride inside the cockpit of the attack helicopter which can also transform into a small cannon emplacement/base, with the rotors being stored underneath and extra armour flipping forward from the rear fuselage.
Trivia
- Over-Run's only appearance anywhere is in the original Action Masters commercial, as one of the Autobots encircling Optimus Prime who answer his call to become "stronger, faster, more alive."
