Camshaft is the name of a fictional character in the Transformers universe. He is sometimes referred to as "Autobot Camshaft" for trademark purposes.〔(TransformerToys.uk - Autobot Blades )〕 Hasbro registered the name Camshaft for U.S. Trademark in October 2003.〔(Seibertron.com - Hasbro Registers Names )〕 ==Transformers: Generation 1== Camshaft is an ironic name because the signature feature of the RX-7, a rotary engine, does not have a camshaft. The toy is one of the least known of the 1985 releases as his sub-group, the Omnibots, were three Autobots that were only available by mail-order. Another little-known fact is that the Omnibots were the Autobots' first "triple changers"—a talent identified more with the Autobots Tracks, Perceptor, and (until 1986) the Decepticon Triple Changers. The original Omnibots' instruction booklets described them as such new additions to the Autobot team that no tech spec data or statistical information was available about them. This left kids and collectors able to use their imagination regarding what personalities and roles the characters would play. No hint was given at possible profiles until a 1987 mail-order catalog was published, with Ultra Magnus giving synopses of each Omnibot's function. Original show bibles discovered in 2007 revealed the biography written by Bob Budiansky. This biography describes Camshaft as a grim warrior who is ruthless in battle.〔(AllSpark.com Forums (Web Archive) )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Camshaft (Transformers)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
