Series: Cybertron
Year: 2005
Allegiance: Decepticon / Autobot
Class: Mini-Con 2-Pack
In between the moons of Cybertron trails a 3,000 mile-long field of debris left there by the many battles that have been fought in orbit around the machine planet. It is in the dangerous, remote center of this desolate asteroid field that Blastcharge, under the direction of Sunstorm, has constructed a decoy base of operations. The leader of the Deep Space Mini-Con Team had hoped to lure in and destroy fighters for the Mini-Con Council of Sages. He never imagined that the Council would send the one and only Street Action Team to their Doom!
High Wire and his teammates on the Street Action Team returned to Cybertron as heroes after the Energon Battles. As a result, they were among the first warriors enlisted by Anti-Blaze and the Mini-Con Council of Sages to fight the Mini-Con rebels. He is reluctant to return once again to battle, but he also knows that - combined as Perceptor - the Street Action Team is the most powerful warrior among the Mini-Cons, and the only one with a chance of going up against the Deep Space Mini-Con team and winning.
Please be aware that this is not a review, as I have never had these figures in hand. The pictures were provided by my good buddy Flo and I have reviewed other versions of these toys, which are linked below for reference.
Remarks: To bolster the Cybertron line-up, five Mini-Con teams from the Armada days and one from Energon were taken from storage, given new colors, and paired off more or less at random into nine different vs-Packs. At the very least, though, all nine packs sported individual profile texts for all these Mini-Cons (see above), making for a rather fascinating micro-continuity with the Cybertron series. In this pack we have Blastcharge, repaint of Armada Payload, and High Wire, repaint of Energon High Wire. Blastcharge combines with the rest of the Deep Space Team into the mighty Umbral Blaster, while High Wire combines with the rest of the Street Action Team into Perceptor.
See Scrap Iron vs. Grindor and Backblast vs. Sureshock for the rest of the Deep Space Team and the Street Action Team.
