STRAFE

"Dispara en todas direcciones... hasta que des con el enemigo."
"Shoot everywhere - since that's where the enemies are."

Personalidad: Antes de saludar a Strafe, ponte a cubierto... es muy probable que este irritable y exaltado Technobot abra fuego contra ti antes de darte la mano. No es que tenga tendencias asesinas... simple y sencillamente, es muy nervioso. El exceso de tranquilidad hace hormiguear sus circuitos. Un ruido inesperado, y puede que empiece a disparar. Y eso es muy triste, porque, una vez ha desconectado la artillería, es uno de los más amables y encantadores Autobots. Desgraciadamente, poca gente llega a saberlo.

Before you walk up and say hello to Strafe, you'd better run for cover... because this high-strung, hair-trigger Technobot is more likely to spray you with weapons fire than shake your hand. He's not mean or murderous... he's just nervous. Too much quiet makes his circuits tingle. Sudden noises can cause him to pop a few plugs. So rather than remain calm in these situations, Strafe has developed the annoying habit of shooting first and asking questions later. And that's too bad, because once he lowers his guns, Strafe becomes one of the kindest, gentlest Autobots of all. Unfortunately, few ever get close enough to him to find this out for themselves.

Habilidades: A pesar de su extremado nerviosismo, Strafe es un experto tirador. Como robot, es capaz de perforar una cabeza de tornillo a tres km. de distancia con el rayo que emite su rifle calórico. En su forma de vehículo, puede alcanzar una velocidad de 375 km. por hora a ras de tierra. También puede poner en acción sus retropropulsores, con los cuales puede volar a una velocidad máxima de 870 km. por hora, con una autonomía de 4.500 km. En todas sus formas posee reflejos rápidos como el rayo. Es capaz de esquivar un misil con cabeza rastreadora y de invertir su trayectoria mientras vuela a máxima velocidad. Puede combinarse con sus camaradas Technobots para formar el super-robot Computron.

Oddly enough, despite all his wild shooting sprees, Strafe is an expert marksman. When he wants to, he can burn a hole through a screw head from two miles away with the searing beam of the heat-ray rifle that he carries in robot mode. In his vehicle mode, he can achieve a maximum ground speed of 250 mph. He can also engage his rear retro-rocket boosters, which allow him to fly at a maximum speed of 580 mph with a 3,000 mile range. In all his modes, he exhibits lightning-fast reflexes. He can outmaneuver a heat-seeking missile and make a right turn at maximum flying speed in the space of a quarter-mile. He combines with his fellow Technobots to form the super-robot Computron.

Debilidades: Strafe tiene tendencia a perder velocidad durante las maniobras más complicadas. Suele gastar municiones inútilmente, lo que le deja desprovisto de ellas cuando realmente las necesita.

Strafe has a tendency to stall in mid-air during some of his more daring maneuvers. The wasteful manner in which he uses his weapons often leaves him lacking ammunition in battle situations when he truly needs it.
