Back in the early days of Transformers, when the line proved a hit, Hasbro licensed a series of toys from manufacturers other than Takara to swell their product line. These toys were never featured in the cartoon series, and rarely got any attention in the comics of the time either. Two such characters were
Roadbuster and
Whirl! Until now, we have only had their packaging bios to go on, but little by little, their full length "Transformers Universe Who's Who" bios have been coming to light thanks to the sterling efforts of Jim Sorenson.
We've seen Roadbuster's full length bio previously, but you can check out Whirl's extended bio over on

It’s been a while a rumor got some attention. Can’t blame, with all those toy leaks… there was no chance for a rumor to survive… everything was solid with facts (psst… we even learned the true identity of a certain Mack Truck. Talk about spoilers eh?).
