Flash (G1)

Flash is an Autobot from the Generation 1 continuity.



Flash's entire job is to be shot at. He uses his blazing fast speed to draw Decepticon fire away from his teammates. He's a show-off stuntman whose antics are as irritating to his fellow Autobots as they are to the Decepticons trying (and failing) to blast him, but his teammates tolerate him because hey, he's the guy getting shot at, not them.

He's also not too shabby a fighter, and specializes in using his turbine engine to get in close enough to surprised aerial foes to peel off a few good shots of his own.

Generation 1

 * Flash (Turbomaster, 1992)
 * Flash transforms into a Ferrari Diablo. Like all Turbomasters, Flash has a turbine-engine accessory that becomes a spring-loaded missile launcher weapon for robot mode. The missiles on these toys are noteworthy for being far too small to pass US safety testing.


 * This mold was released in Japan with no changes as Spinroad.
