Breakaway (ROTF)


 * Breakaway is an Autobot from the live-action movie continuity family.



Breakaway is an unusual Autobot. While other autobot flyers tend to focus on aerial acrobatics, Breakaway focuses mainly on straightforward flying. This and his unmatched speed in the air make him an elite Autobot flyer. One of his favorite tricks is to speed over a Decepticon at seemingly impossible velocity, releasing bombs and missiles and quickly flying away before the thunderous boom of his passage can catch up.

Revenge of the Fallen

 * Breakaway (Deluxe, 2009)
 * Breakaway transforms into an F-35B lightning II joint strike fighter jet. His head, which makes him look like he is wearing a scuba mask, is inside his chest. However, modification can be made to fix this problem (this usually gives him neck articulation as well). The head is clearly visable inside the cockpit, which can be opened. His "Mech Alive" gimmick is that when you spin the open rounded piece on his forearm, the chain gun spins.
 * While Breakaway is mostly a tan color, darker redecos where his main color is a green/brown are becoming more common, possibly a new design. All other aspects are the same.

Trivia

 * The marks on his vehicle mode are similar to another movie jet
 * FINALLY, a movie character with a jet mode and no stupid bird backward legs (however, depending on how he is transformed by the owner, he might)
 * It should be noted that there are two versions of the Breakaway toy available. The one pictured, and a rarer version which replaces all the tan with a goldish color. This version is believed to be a Chase figure, though this unconfirmed.
 * He's been retooled as Thrust.
 * Breakaway sometimes says the phrase, "Decepticon damaged! and it's beautiful!", uh, yeah Breakaway, stop imitating Rampage.
 * Breakaway was originally named Firestorm, and goes under that name in the files of the video game, this is possibly referenced in his multiplayer only line, "Lets kick the tires and light the fires!"
