The name or term Thrust refers to more than one character or idea. For a list of other meanings, see Thrust (disambiguation).


Thrust is a Predacon from the Beast Wars II portion of the Generation One continuity family who was later upgraded into Thrustor.
Thrust

Yeller belly scallywag.

Like his best friend, Dirge, Thrust has the attitude of a comedian. He never calms down and hates acting serious. He’d much rather have fun and take things in stride. Thrust has a shrewd personality, though, and along with Dirge he forms a well-known duo among the Predacons. Unfortunately, the duo isn’t known for exactly what they’d like to be. For the most part, they are thought of as bunglers. Thrust hates sea breezes since they tend to cause him to rust and for that reason alone he has a great hatred of the Maximal Scuba.

After pledging unconditional loyalty to Gigastorm, Thrust was rebuilt as Thrustor. While he retains the same jovial personality, Thrustor is an all-around superior warrior to his previous form and no longer a harmless joke among the Maximals.

Fiction[]

Beast Wars II and Neo cartoon[]

Voice actor: Junji Sanechika (Japanese)

Thrust was under the command of Galvatron when he landed on Gaia, planning to drain the planet of its mysterious but powerful Angolmois Energy. They initially trapped their Maximal opposition in a paralyzing field, but Lio Convoy intervened and destroyed the field's antenna, allowing his troopers to escape. The New Forces Arrive! Eventually, the Predacon force discovered an abandoned Gaian computer, containing data on weapons from the planet's past. The Predacons scanned this data for new alternate modes, and Thrust adopted the form of an F-22 Raptor. He and Dirge were subsequently sent out to capture a white lion that had interferred with Galvatron's plans, but stopped to make fun of Starscream and BB on the way. They had a good laugh about it until BB fired smokescreen missiles at them, causing them to crash into a cliffside. White Lion, Run!

But it's the pelvic Thrustor that really drives you insaaaaane.

Beast Wars II comic[]

Thrust was part of Galvatron's forces that searched Gaia for Angolmois Energy. When Galvatron fell into a deep sleep, Thrust joined Megastorm in operating a massive tank that drew power from Galvatron. While attacking the Maximals, Thrust attempted to warn the driver, Dirge that Maximal reinforcements were coming, only for his partner to pay attention too late. The tank was eventually destroyed with the Predacons inside. Demolish the Superdreadnought Tank!

When Scylla got chummy enough with the Maximals to put on a play, Thrust and Dirge reported the unfolding events to the other Predacons. Thrust joined the subsequent Predacon attack, but the villains were forced to retreat after Bighorn showed off his mighty firepower. Realize the Forbidden Love! Thrust later joined the other Predacons in manning a base—actually Gigastorm in alternate mode. When the Maximals attacked, they were cornered in a trap by the Predacons, but the might of Star Upper and the arrival of Lio Convoy sent the Predacons panicking. Make a Surprise Attack on the Super Weapon Base! Thrust, Dirge, Starscream, and BB were later pressed into serving Gigastorm. Gigastorm showed displeasure at their efforts and knocked the four into what was seemingly a hot spring. The Predacons found this relaxing, seeing too late the sign that warned of Angolmois Energy. The four found themselves transformed into Cyborg Beasts, with Thrust becoming Thrustor. They soon noticed the nearby Tasmania Kid and took him hostage. Apache arrived to save him, beating back the Cyborg Beasts in a fierce battle. Recover the Bonds Lost!

When the Nemesis arrived into Gaian orbit, Thrustor joined the others in manning Nemesis and observing the artificial planet suck up the Angolmois Energy of Gaia. When the Maximals began an all-out assault on Nemesis, Thrustor was part of the counterattack. All Hands, Make a Special Attack on the Evil Planet! Due to the personal battle between Lio Convoy and Galvatron, Nemesis blew up with the Maximals and Predacons on

improve his troops' abilities, Gigastorm exposed them to Angolmois Energy. Its effect on Thrust was to mutate him into Thrustor. Beast Wars Sourcebook #4

At some point, Thrustor became a herald for Unicron. He too became a Herald to safeguard Shokaract, the vessel for Unicron's return. When Shokaract engaged the Maximal commander Big Convoy in battle, Thrustor and the other Heralds returned to Cybertron with Angolmois from the furthest reaches of the galaxy. The Ascending #3

Thrustor and the rest of the Heralds proceeded to distribute the Angolmois Capsules throughout Cybertron's populace spreading chaos and dissent, perfect conditions for Unicron's return. When Shokaract seemed to be overwhelmed by a concentrated Maximal/Predacon attack, the Heralds rushed to his aid. They were distracted when Magmatron pulled Shokaract into limbo, giving Ravage an opening to throw a grenade into Thrustor's face. The Heralds seemingly fled with the disappearance of Shokaract and the failure of Unicron's plan. The Ascending #4
