Blitzwing is the name of several fictional characters in the various Transformers series. He is always depicted as a Decepticon with two alternate forms, that of a jet and that of a tank.
Blitzwing is a Decepticon triple changer, capable of transforming into a Type 74 main battle tank and a MiG-25 jet fighter. His fellow Decepticon triple changers are Astrotrain and Octane. He was named among the top selling toys in 1985 by Playthings magazine.
A battle-loving Decepticon warrior, Blitzwing frequently uses his jet mode to strafe land-bound Autobots, then quickly transforms to tank mode to finish them off with his powerful energy mortar. In robot mode, he prefers to use his electron scimitar to fight foes one on one.
Blitzwing would first appear in the Transformers comics in the Target 2006 arc of the U.K. comics. Along with the other Triple Changers, Macabre, the three Insecticons, and the seekers Dirge, Thrust and Ramjet, they are the Decepticons' most feared killers and have to be taken out before a major Autobot uprising can take place. Megatron inadvertently scuppered the plan by summoning the Insecticons to Earth.
Through the dreaming lights, into darkness of
nightmares
to the endless hollow, I shall go
from happiness to sorrow, from something to nothing
from the beginning to the end
You see my truth and see my name
I will believe in you and you will succumb to me
See my truth and see my name, and I will know you
and I will drain you dry
All is fading, all is lost
the endless never, the blood light
the darker shadows, and the darkest night
the endless never, the blood light
As my life fades out, as death kicks in
will I regret my life, of sin
from punisher to punished, from master to slave
to my endless grave
You see my truth and see my name
I will believe in you and you will succumb to me
see my truth and see my name, and I will know you
and I will drain
All is fading, all is lost
the endless never, the blood light
the darker shadow, and the darkest night
the endless never, the blood light
Take me away, far from this day
and let me stay, and believe in my shadow
All is fading, all is lost
the endless never, the blood light
the darker shadow, and the darkest night
the endless never, the blood light
fading black, the endless never
