- Fisitron is an Autobot from the Aligned continuity family.
Fisitron is a mechatronic engineer. He hasn't messed around with Cosmic Rust, but he may have engineered some other instruments of destruction. Some describe him as a "fan boy," though of what has yet to be ascertained.
He is also known as Ironfist, Fistitron and Bullethead.
Fiction
TransTech
Ironfist was an unassuming assembly line worker in Polyhex, likeable but forgettable. What nobody realized, however, was that he led a secret double life as Fisitron, notorious underworld weapons engineer. When, one day, Ironfist was visited at his job by Ultra Magnus, he feared the worst, but the Wrecker leader was not there to arrest the engineer, but to recruit him. "Fisitron" was inducted into the Wreckers, learning also from Magnus that he was possessed of an unusual "combination spark", giving him the potential to merge with other machines.

Sometime later, Fisitron found himself hounded by Barricade and Frenzy, who accused him of war crimes involving chemical weapons and the death of all 140 Decepticons at Outpost Thetarus. As he avoided the barrage of attacks from the two Decepticons, he pleaded ignorance of these misdeeds and suggested they better matched the criminal activities of Oilslick. Barricade ignored Fisitron's logic, noting that the Autobot made a more pleasing scapegoat. Timeless

- TFSS2 number: 2
- Accessories: Gun
- Part of the second year of Transformers Figure Subscription Service toys, Timelines Fisitron is a tan and blue redeco of Generations: Fall of Cybertron Roadbuster (who himself was a retool of Fall of Cybertron Swindle). He transforms into a large-wheeled SUV-like Cybertronian Assault Transport vehicle, and comes with a small gun which can can peg via 5mm post onto his hands and roof.
- In addition to his robot and vehicle modes, Fisitron can also combine with his fellow Wreckers into Ruination and serve as any of the gestalt robot's four limbs.
- The original version of this mold was also used to make Generation 2 Swindle.
Notes
- The first digital mock-up of Fisitron presented had an Elite Guard logo, teal feet, and some other minor paint differences. The Internets complained about the symbol, and so it was changed to a normal Autobot one, and some of the other changes were made to give him orange like the other Aligned Wreckers.
- Fisitron's aliases include "Ironfist", the real name of his Generation 1 and Animated counterparts; "Fistitron", a not uncommon misreading of Fisitron; and "Bullethead", a reference to G1 Ironfist's unfortunate accident with a cerebro-sensitive bullet in Last Stand of the Wreckers.
- Fisitron's combination instructions actually show the head and default combination for Bruticus, rather than Ruination.
