Astrotrain is a Triple Changer who can assume the form of both a steam locomotive and a space shuttle. He was named among the top selling toys in 1985 by Playthings magazine.
Astrotrain's Marvel and Dreamwave bios both state that he loves using his Triple Changing abilities to create confusion among his enemies, enjoying the fear in their eyes in the moments before he destroys them.
Astrotrain was named the 3rd oddest thing that G1 Transformers transform into by Topless Robot.

Famous quotes containing the word generation:
“One of the things that is most striking about the young generation is that they never talk about their own futures, there are no futures for this generation, not any of them and so naturally they never think of them. It is very striking, they do not live in the present they just live, as well as they can, and they do not plan. It is extraordinary that whole populations have no projects for a future, none at all.”
—Gertrude Stein (1874–1946)
