Chromia
From Teletraan I: The Transformers Wiki
| This article is about the Generation 1 Autobot. For Airazor's starship, see Chromia 10. |
- Chromia is an Autobot from the Generation 1 continuity family.
Chromia is a rough-and-tumble blue collar trucker gal, which means, of course, that she's Ironhide's girlfriend. She's not afraid of getting dirty, which is good, because she probably always is.
...wait, maybe that should be rephrased.

Chromia and the other female Autobots were an elite squad of warriors under the command of the Quintessons.
[edit] Timelines: Descent into Evil comic
Chromia and her ward Flareup were part of an Autobot strike force tasked with destroying the Decepticon general Deathsaurus' cloning lab on Ceti Alpha Seven. Although the pair had handily beaten Deathsaurus' Insecticon underling Buzzclaw on Regulon Four some time previous, they were taken by surprise by the first production run of clones. Although Chromia fought effectively against the clones, she was no match for Deathsaurus himself when he entered the battle personally. Falling before the general's might, she was taken captive.
Chromia, along with her teammates and the backup team of Ironhide and Ratchet, was ultimately rescued when Ricochet, who had evaded capture, came to the rescue of the entire Autobot party. Descent into Evil

[edit] Toys
[edit] Timelines
- Descent into Evil (multi-pack, 2005)
- Accessories: Launcher, missile, scope, 2 tailpipes, energon chip
- Available only as part of BotCon 2005's "Descent into Evil" set (along with Buzzclaw, Deathsaurus, Dirge, Fallback, Ironhide and Ricochet, Chromia is a retool of Energon Arcee, transforming into a Cybertronic racing motorcycle. She has multiple clear-plastic "energon" parts that form side-thrusters in bike mode, and combine to form a massive compound bow with a spring-loaded missile.
- The toy was originally intended to be Moonracer, but Fun Publications could not secure the trademark on the name. As such, Chromia's toy is in Moonracer's teal and white colors and has a head that resembles Moonracer's. (Fun Publications' intent was for the head to be a compromise between the Moonracer and Firestar head designs.)
- Her base mold is also used by Flamewar and the live-action movie-verseArcee and Elita-One, while the Chromia-retooled version is also used by Flareup.
