Overload (Armada)


 * Overload is an Autobot from the Armada portion of the Unicron Trilogy continuity family.

Japanese name: Ultra Magnus

Armada

 * Overload w/Rollout (2003)
 * Japanese IC number: MC-14


 * Overload is a red and black carrier truck capable of carrying Jetfire in his vehicle mode. His robot mode, in which his Mini-Con, Rollout, acts as his head, is a heavily armed robot with little more than a passing resemblance to G1 Ultra Magnus (thus the Japanese name), the design being more of an homage of the Action Master Rollout.  In his altmode, Rollout forms a truck that pulls Overload.  Alternately, Overload can be pulled by Optimus Prime's cab or attached to Optimus's trailer to form a double trailer.  Overload can also transform into powerful over-the-shoulder cannons for Optimus Prime's super mode.


 * The Overload mold was reused for Energon Ultra Magnus and Costco Overload (see below), and was retooled by OTFCC for Universe Sentinel Maximus with a new head mold.

Trivia

 * Overload's entry in Dreamwave's Armada: More than Meets the Eye profile series claims that his combination with Rollout uses "Headmaster technology."
