No known weakness. ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- The dashed lines are separators and nothing more. The the name of the transformer followed by an optional curly braces. This is a basic description of which version of this toy it is. Next is the function; What their job is. And what subgroup/allegiance the toy is. The second line is that character's quote or motto. The third and fourth lines are used together. The first one is abbreviations (where needed) of a Transformer's attributes, and a numerical rating of each one from 1 to 10. Below is the rough translation of each one: Stren. = Strength (Physical Strength) Intel. = Intelligence (How smart they are) Speed = Speed (How fast they are in beast/vehicle/robot mode) Endur. = Endurance (physical durability) Rank = Rank (Rank on the command chain) Cour. = Courage (Guts / bravery under fire) Firep. = Firepower (How big is their gun) Skill = Skill (How well they perform their function) The remaing lines describe the Transformer's personality, weaponry, weaknesses, etc.. In some cases no profile or stats are supplied. This occurs with some of the foreign Transformers. If this is the case, a dash will replace each stat and a note stating anything of value about the toy will be in place of the profile. * Legal stuff: * The Transformers", "Beast Wars", "Beast Machines", "Machine Wars", "Autobots", "Decepticons", "Maximals", "Predacons", "Vehicons", and all codenames and subgroups listed are copyrighted by Hasbro and/or Kenner. -- The toys themselves are copyrighted by Hasbro, Takara, Banadi, Toy Box, ToyC, Kenner, and maybe one or two other companies I don't know about. * This list was produced for educational purposes only.

In jet mode can reach speed of Mach 1.9 with range of 4500 miles. Carries electronstatic discharger rifle and expertly uses it to blast Decepticons. Forms Superion with fellow Aerialbots. ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- Sizzle {UK} Function: Scout Group: Autobot Sparkabot " I can smell the evil of a Decepticon. Wherever they are - I'll find them!

Saving the universe can't be that big of a deal! " | Stren. | Intel. | Speed | Endur. | Rank | Cour. | Firep. | Skill | 7 8 9 6 7 9 8 7 An easy going daredevil. Out for kicks and in it for the glory. Speeds to rescue at the merest sniff of trouble and turns it to Autobot advantage! In sleek vehicle mode, his engine doubles as a powerful weapon. As a robot, he creates havoc in the enemy ranks. ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- Skydive Function: Aerial Warfare Strategist Group: Aerialbot " Only by studying the past can we win the present. " | Stren. | Intel. | Speed | Endur. | Rank | Cour. | Firep. | Skill | 4 10 9 4 7 7 8 10 Fascinated by the science of aerial warfare, he'd rather read about jet fighters than be one. Can duplicate the flying motion of anything he sees. Maybe the most skilled flyer of all Transformers, but prone to mid-air stalls. Flies at Mach 2.6 with 1400 mile range. Carries laser guided missiles and uses nega-gun to crumble objects by breaking molecular bonds. Forms Superion with fellow Aerialbots. ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- Slag Function: Flamethrower Group: Dinobot " I have no need for friends, even less for enemies. " | Stren. | Intel. | Speed | Endur. | Rank | Cour. | Firep. | Skill | 9 4 3 9 4 7 8 7 Slag is enormously strong, disruptive, and just plain mean-spirited and often brawls with his comrades... which is why they seldom help him when he's in trouble. Despite his nasty, rash personality, he does share their dislike for authority. His mouth shoots 3000 degrees Celcius flames up to 80 feet and he enjoys melting enemies into pools of liquid metal. He isn't too bright and likes shattering brick buildings with his head, he also uses an electron blaster in Dinobot mode. ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- Slingshot Function: Ground Troop Support Group: Aerialbot " I'm even better than I think. " | Stren. | Intel. | Speed | Endur. | Rank | Cour. | Firep. | Skill | 6 6 8 4 5 8 8 9 He won't ever win a Mr. Popularity contest -- incessant braggart who takes credit for exploits of other Autobots. Optimus Prime supports him because he's hard working and loyal. Extremely manuverable with vertical landing and take off capability. Flies at Mach 1.6 with 800 mile range. A sharpshooter with twin mortar cannons as jet, neutron rifle as robot. Forms Superion with fellow Aerialbots. ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- Snarl Function: Desert Warrior Group: Dinobot " Only in war is there happiness. " | Stren. | Intel. | Speed | Endur. | Rank | Cour. | Firep. | Skill | 9 6 3 9 4 8 1 4 An unhappy loner of few words and fewer opinions, Snarl only finds joy in the heat of battle. He hates his Dinobot form and longs to return to Cybertron. His tail can shatter 20 foot cubes of concrete and his armoured hide resists most missiles, but he is vulnerable to nighttime attacks because he gets his strength from the sun. The large golden plates on his spinal assembly are solar collectors that he uses to collect the sun's rays in order to increase his power. He is generally considered slow and receives little help from others because of his own uncooperative nature. ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- Strafe {Cyberjet} Function: Aerial Gunner Group: Autobot " Shoot everywhere -- since that's where the enemies are! " | Stren. | Intel. | Speed | Endur. | Rank | Cour. | Firep. | Skill | 5 6 6 7 5 8 7 4 Never aims at targets -- just arrives for battle and sprays artillery in all directions. Very high strung. Lightning-fast reflexes make up for sluggish speed (maximum air speed: 500 mph). Proud to be fighting alonside Air Raid and Jetfire, who appropriately keep their scanning sensors locked onto his weapons system to avoid being hit by misguided missile fire. ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- Streetwise Function: Interceptor Group: Protectobot " You have to know where you are before you know what to do. " | Stren. | Intel. | Speed | Endur. | Rank | Cour. | Firep. | Skill | 5 9 6 6 5 9 7 7 Nothing escapes his notice. Amazing ability to adapt and understand different environments. Clever and determined, nothing deters him from hunting down his enemies, except an empty fuel tank. Combines with fellow Protectobots to form Defensor. *** Was not released to public ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- Turbofire Function: Supplies & Support Group: Autobot " Never give an inch!

As a vehicle, his engine block converts to a powerful weapon. As a robot, uses it to defend with super-Autobot courage! ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- Volt Function: Speed Technician Group: Autobot Laser " I'm reved up and ready to rock!

Engine with side mounted, air intake clusters and front nitro blower produces 200hp in second gear! When ignition switch is activated, powerful light saber radiates 60 times hotter than a tail pipe. ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- Windbreaker Function: Advance Intel.

As a vehicle, he's long and lean with a dual purpose engine / defense module. As a robot, this firepower becomes unbeatable in his hands. ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ======= ===== ===== ===== ===== ===== ===== ===== ===== ===== ===== ======= ======= ===== ===== ===== ===== ===== ===== ===== ===== ===== ===== ======= Thanks go out to: --- "Rouen D.E.
