I can kind of see it now - they've taken a bit of licence with him, maybe that's his Cybertron mode? It's great if they've used Deluge though - I think it's hilarious that they've gone from using the most absolutely obvious Decepticons to using one that's relatively obscure and confusing (I think Deluge is the one who has the same toy as the Autobot Speedstream and has the same name as an Autobot who has the same mould as the Autobot form of Drench. Or something. I guess they needed a Decepticon mad scientist and Mixmaster was otherwise occupied. I wonder if McCarthy was taking the piss by using Deluge, since factions of the fandom [including me] had been vocal about the boring 84-85 lineup of Decepticons?) Although sadly it looks like the Autobots could have already killed Deluge and Dirge (unless the Decepticons got away.)Originally Posted by Paulbot
Yeah I wondered that too because it's clearly not any 1984/84/86 Decepticon. To me the body shape looked liked Swindle (Armada Starscream's Minicon) but the colours were wrong
The TFwiki names him as Deluge from G2!!! which made me happy to see an existing obscure character used instead of a generic one.
