Changes: Fasttrack

Latest revision as of 10:45, 25 September 2011

Fasttrack is a Decepticon in the Generation One continuity family.

Fasttrack is a semi-autonomous armored interceptor under the control of the Decepticon Scorponok.

Fiction[]

Marvel Comics continuity[]

Fasttrack was among the Decepticons under Scorponok's command. They were ambushed while leading captured Autobots on a death-march to Polyhex's smelting pool^[1]. Fasttrack seemed caught off-balance by the attack, and was among the first to flee the scene once the retreat was sounded. Ring of Hate!

Note: The comic's mistake-riddled coloring seems to indicate Fasttrack was the fleeing Decepticon Scorponok called a coward after pointing out they were badly outgunned. The robot mode shown was Blot's, however—a mistake also not uncommon in the Headmasters comic.

Super-God Masterforce cartoon[]

An army of Fasttracks, led by Guardminder, worked on a floating Decepticon mega-cannon in space, and defended it from Autobot attackers. Crisis! The Day of the Downfall of Humanity

Toys[]

Generation One[]

Scorponok with Lord Zarak (Headmaster, 1987)

Japanese ID number: D-93

Available only with the large Headmaster Decepticon Scorponok, Fasttrack transforms into a six-wheeled assault buggy. His axles were designed for quick rolling down the main ramp of Scorponok's city mode.

This mold was also used to make Guardminder.

Notes[]

Fasttrack model — I'll show that Grimlock who 'counts' as a Transformer...

Fasttrack had a character model prepared for "The Rebirth", the mini-series which ended the US The Transformers cartoon, but never actually appeared. He may have been slated to appear before "Rebirth" was cut from five episodes to three.

Answering a Grim Gram in the UK comics, Grimlock said he did not consider semi-autonomous units like Scamper or Roller, to 'count' as Transformers—they were considered components of larger Transformers instead.
