Anti-Blaze

Anti-Blaze is aMini-ConTriple Changerfrom theCybertronportion of theUnicron Trilogy continuity family.

It's Wheeljack and Laser Magnus's smaller cousin.

After the defeat ofUnicron,Anti-Blaze,a junior member of theMini-Con Council of Sages,argued strongly for complete Mini-Con independence, even refusing the help of theAutobotsin setting up their colonies onCybertron'smoons. Anti-Blaze thought it best for the Mini-Cons to establish themselves on their own.

Two decades later, Anti-Blaze has come to regret this decision, as now theUnicron Singularitythreatens the moons with annihilation, and the Mini-Cons are cut off from the aid they now desperately need. To make matters worse, Anti-Blaze has to contend with rebels within his own faction. Though he is not a fighter himself, he now takes up arms against theSky Terror Mini-Con Teamwho plan to use the chaos caused by the black hole to send the Mini-Cons back into the hands of theDecepticons!

Anti-Blaze and his allies once worked for six stellar cycles to construct an evacuation fleet, which would allow the Mini-Cons to flee to the distantS-K System.The entire plan was ruined whenThrustdestroyed all of it in less than an hour. The Mini-Con population panicked afterwards, only for Anti-Blaze to rally them, and unify a fighting force that sent insurgent Mini-Cons into exile in a nearby asteroid field.Anti-Blaze, Scythe, & Checkpoint's profile in Club magazine #11

This allowed Anti-Blaze to remain as a member of the Mini-Con Council of Sages, operating from the small Cybertronians' primary colony in the massive debris field between Cybertron's moons. After the outbreak of theUnicron Singularity,the colony was attacked by the DecepticonLandquakeand a cadre of rebels.Revelations Part 4The threat of the insurgence was soon eclipsed by the arrival ofUnicronhimself.Revelations Part 5Anti-Blaze and his loyal Mini-Cons fought alongside a rag-tag team of Autobots until Cybertron transformed itself intoPrimus's robot mode.
