    This question is about the mini-con from the Micron Booster Ver. 2 set which is named Triac. It is hot pink, yellow and white. Is this supposed to be a female? The only other pink mini-con that I know of is Windrazor from the latest booster set and she is def. female. Thanks in advance for any and all help!

    I don't know about Triac... but have you seen your sig? There's more pink Microns right there (who are female)!

    I don't think Booster Microns had specific individual bio until ver.4.

    There's definitely more female Microns/Mini-Cons. One team was recolored as females and released with the Armada DVD volumes in Japan, for example.

    I meant painted all pink but thank you for pointing that out. Falcia def has some pink in her mostly white figure. Combusta and Twirl on the other hand are purple and have no pink with the exception of Combusta's mouth.

    You should convince the TFCC to give this figure a female bio like they did three other figures from this booster set. That would make this the ultimate booster set to buy for female mini-cons!!!!!

    Sureshock is Arcee in Japan, so yes. In Armada continunity though, just a "male".

    No, they didn't. Cheetor and Terrorsaur had female Minicons (Cliffjumper and Ironhide respectively), but Armorhide (Rhinox's partner) and Nightscream (Airazor's) were geezerbots.

    Not true, the Armada sourcebook by DW comics listed Sureshock as a female. She is female in the US as well.

    I don't recall Sureshock being presented as male in the FP comics.
