TRANSFORMERS: THE BASICS on the STUNTICONS

Forgot to mention that breakdown and dead end were in both cybertron video games

I remember the toy line for Transformers Prime had a solo Dead End figure that was a repaint of Wheeljack’s that made him into a spark-hungry vampire, and the first bayverse movie comic made him into a zombie that ripped the parts of other transformers off in order to repair his body, broken from experimentation. Yeesh.

In terms of the toys, because in the cartoon Optimus Prime and Motormaster were the same size, I won an eBay auction back in 1999 for a G1 Motormaster. I was greatly disappointed when I opened the box to find that motormaster was actually much smaller in scale than Optimus Prime.

Straight up stunt on those hoes!

Who else waiting for the other 5 stunticons to be made as a legacy figure to combine with motor master

The commercial animation of the Stunticons and Aerialbots toy was so well made and so wrong at the same time!

I own dragstrip and off road as well as black jack I need to get the others 😊someday I'll get them

To be honest, I couldn't find out if Menasor died or not?

Cyberverse Dead End: I love being Stunticon.

What if Knockout is joined the Stunticons?

DEAD END is my fave. Stunticons my fave Combiner Team. I’m such a fan, I made a rap song about them on my channel. EX extended version in production. Let me know what you think! Thanks again for these vids!

I allways thought Transformers Primes Knockout was a modern version of G1 Dead End.

Fun fact Wildbreak is ironicly known as Tfp Knockout and Breakdown's son or sparkling further in the rid2015 time line

If the stunticons appeared in Prime as a group, I’d imagine Knock-Out would replace the role of Breakdown, which I personally think would’ve been kind of interesting
Edit: I hadn’t finished the episode, and I had no idea they appeared in RID15.

My two favorite quotes from Menasor:

Devastation: "You beat Motormaster, now see if you can beat me!"

RID: "Welcome to the end of road, courtesy of Menasor!"

Drag strip easily my fave stunticon

Now there’s only one combiner team left to see the basics of.

They were the real deceptions that had the respect in the ranks and measures was awsome..

No road is big enough for their sadistic driving.

You should do the basics on mercenaries

With all due respect you forgot to mention how Menosor was his own Deception in Transformers Cybertron

The opposite of the (now defunct) Wyrdvane Psycher Imperial Guard unit. Rather than having a special or heavy weapon they could use a psychic power, and each member of the unit had a different, conflicting personality - it was the sargent's job to get them to reach into the warp together and pull a definitely-not-magic-spell out of it.

My favorite members are Wildrider and Dead end

One big unanswered question from Prime that I never saw answered was Breakdown's history with Bulkhead. It was mentioned the two had a bitter rivalry that originated in the past and that they absolutely despised one another. But I never understood the reason why Bulkhead hated Breakdown so badly, to the point he even refused Prime's orders when the Autobots had to rescue the captive Breakdown from MECH. While Airachnid and Arcee's rivalry, and Optimus Prime and Megatron's for that matter, were very well explained and understood, the show never explained Bulkhead and Breakdown's beef with each other. Missed opportunity if you ask me. I also think having both Breakdown and Airachnid killed in completly random reasons that had nothing to do with their rivals wasn't a very good way to do it, as it left those rivalries unresolved. Arcee never found out what happened to Airachnid, and Bulkhead only discovered that Breakdown was dead when he encountered his body being puppeted by Silas. Even if their rivals didn't end up being the ones to do them in, I think they should've been either present or at least aware of the demise of their hated counterparts for the closure and justice they were looking for, such as how Optimus was still present when Bumblebee killed Megatron.

I remember finding a Lamborghini Breakdown (Gen 1) in a park when I was little. Now I want to go find it.

Mom get the camara

I really hope motormaster becomes a main villain in the transformers movie

The Stunticons are a group of 5 rebellious Decepticon automobiles that Megatron can barely control. They are the mortal enemies of the Autobot Aerialbots.

The Stunticons consist of:
• The merciless Kenworth K100 Aerodyne sleeper truck, Motormaster (leader)
• The victory-obsessed 1976 Tyrrell P34 Formula One six-wheeler race car, Drag Strip
• The gloom-ridden nihilist Porsche 928, Dead End
• The paranoid 1987 Lamborghini Countach LP500S, Breakdown
• The psychotic 1977 Ferrari 308 GTB Wildrider

Together, they can combine to form the powerful but mentally unstable Menasor.

You forgot they made a G2 Dragstrip in transformers legacy

I love Menasor in transformers rid 2015

I feel like the Stunticons, mainly Breakdown, Dead End, and Offroad, are the most likely group of Decepticons to become Autobots

I am desperately trying to obtain all of the Legacy Stunticons and it is my driving force and is giving me a sense of purpose, but my mom thinks I'm obsessed about it. Woman, Transformers is my childhood, I literally grew up with it and the only other Combiner I have is literally the same size as my leader Galvatron. Let me have my fun and have my own goals. Who agrees with me?

My first introduction to any of the Stunticons was Breakdown in Prime and I LOVE HIM, I was so extremely sad when he was killed off. Thankfully subsequent writers for tf media recognized that for the bad move that it was and brought him back lol and I'm excited at the possibility of Menasor and the rest of the Stunticons in Earthspark :D

I expect to see more of them in the future. They're just drenched in dramatic Decepticon dysfunction.

Something curiosity about the stuntacons is that their own unstable personality of menasour didn't make any appearance in any classic media at least as far as I am aware

I honestly like how Combiner Wars created Optimus Maximus using the same idea of disguising as Menasor from G1

I didn't know the RiD Stuntacon team and different names.

I like TFA stunticons.

the legacy menasor is by far one of the best combiner toys ever made from hasbro, so glad i got the whole thing, he looks so great up on the shelf

Wild-Break sounded more like Wild-Rider, but I guess it was a mix of the two.

I’ve been writing a fanfic because I really love these guys but three minutes in I’ve realised I knew way too little (that’s not going to stop me)

Cyberverse Deadend is my fave😂

Congratulations on 200k man 😀

Congratulations on everything. Love you Chris

A small group of mentally deranged psychopaths that are powerful vehicles. What's not to like for a former psychologystudent/ gear head like me?

the stunticon dead end was totally insane in the bumble prequel comic and his cyberverse counterpart was pretty funny since he and astrotrain made a perfect duo.

You also forgot about transformers devastation and wfc and foc

Breakdown dragstrip and dead-end was in foc and wfc and motormaster was in the DS game too

And they all were in devastation as motormaster being a boss and menasor being a boss too

Dead End was my Favourite

Talk about road rage

motormaster
