Glit (KP)
- Glit is a Decepticon from the Kiss Players portion of the Generation 1 continuity family.
Glit is a Decepticon doctor equipped with hip-mounted multipurpose medical toolboxes and highly precise laser scalpels, but no actual weaponry. Kind but stubborn, he is the best surgeon the Decepticons have. Unusually for his allegiance, he's compassionate enough to treat any wounded robot he comes across, regardless of their faction. It is said that when he appears on a battlefield, neither side will win, because no warriors will die. Needless to say, this has created friction with Megatron, who once ordered Glit's forelegs cut off to punish him for treating a wounded Autobot commander. The protests of his fellow Decepticons succeeded in changing their leader's mind.
Unlike other cassette Transformers, Glit does not transform into an audio tape, but rather a head-cleaning cassette.
Glit likes to get loaded on Energon wine and sing.
Fiction
Kiss Play Position
Glit waits with Sundor and Rosanna on Earth's Moonbase for the E.D.C.'s anti-electron field to go down. When it does, the three plan to sing for humanity. This confuses and irritates Glit, as he claims not to enjoy singing, but the other two know that when he gets drunk, he'll change his tune.
Toys
Kiss Players
- Cassettron Set Kiss Players Position (Multi-pack, 2006)
- A redeco of the Ravage mold, Glit transforms from a microcassette that can fit into the tape door of the Soundwave and Blaster toys to a robot jaguar. He was available only in an e-Hobby exclusive set with Rosanna and Sundor, which also came with a bonus music CD.
- This mold was also used to make Howlback.
Trivia
- Glit's deco was created by Yui Kano, the voice actress for Kiss Players character Shaoshao Li and for Glit himself.
- The name "Glit" seems to be a shortening of the word "glitter".
- Glit is also the first Decepticon toy with a specific "doctor" function. The Constructicon Hook's medic-ness is debatable, being a "surgical engineer".
