Transformers Valentine's Day Special As part of the Senate Guard, Pipes helped provide security for an emergency Senate meeting. Pipes was walking on the street after one of Tap-Out's fights. Transcendent: PIDW continuity First appearance: Transformers #16 He was seen in the company of Signal Lancer. Pipes was one of many residents of Axiom Nexus. Pipes was one of the many deceased Cybertronians glimpsed by Soundwave as the Decepticon died using the Enigma of Combination to assist Optimus Prime in his battle against Unicron. The God War However, the truth behind Mederi was soon uncovered and the apparitions of Pipes and Trailcutter vanished. Metastasis The two tried to convince the others that they were in the Afterspark and everyone should accept death. No Guns, No Swords, No BriefcasesĪ simulation of Pipes later appeared to Team Rodimus on Mederi alongside the also-deceased Trailcutter. It was then that Tailgate finally learned what Pipes had been looking for. Tailgate chose to look at Pipes and Drift. The Sound of Breaking Glass A 'time fissure' at Swerve's was eventually discovered and allowed people to look back at their departed friends. Under Cold Blue Starsįollowing the battle against Tyrest on Luna 1, Rodimus returned to his office and vowed to redecorate it with less garish colours and a small memorial to Pipes and the crewmembers he had lost. Barely functional and holding his open chest to keep his spark from falling out, he crawled to an alarm and set it off before his spark extinguished. He attempted to apologize, but was cut off by the Phase-Sixer stomping him to bits. He passed the message on, then made his way to Tailgate's room for a movie night.before bumping into Overlord's foot. Pipes visited Blaster to check if the subspace communicator was working so he could send Hubcap a message. Drift offered to introduce him to Tailgate, feeling the two might have some things in common. Drift suggested Rewind as a potential friend for him, but Pipes knew he was involved with Chromedome, revealing he was looking for a bit more than friendship. Pipes lamented his lack of luck with making friends and ventured that he could start hanging out with Drift and Rodimus. Pipes was at the official grand opening of Swerve's bar with Drift, where they toasted to the recently deceased Duobots. If you thought the regular Pipes had had it bad, this duplicate Pipes was killed by Helex, who ripped him in half when the Decepticon Justice Division boarded the ship and slaughtered the crew. Hangers OnĪn alternate Pipes was created when the Lost Light's quantum engines malfunctioned. No Guns, No Swords, No Briefcases Following its failed launch, he was sucked out into space and crashed on a nearby planetoid, where he was retrieved by Rodimus and Ultra Magnus and taken back to the ship. How to Say Goodbye and Mean It He was dismayed that Hubcap wouldn't leave Debris for the trip and that Riptide hadn't bothered to turn up ( and would never learn Riptide had been attacked). Subsequently, Pipes joined up as a crew member on the newly christened Lost Light to take part in Rodimus' quest. "I'm just looking for someone who is interested in "laying pipes", knowhatimsayin'? Eh? Eh?" If he does not notice this (as frequently occurs) he can become vulnerable to his own attack, with unpleasant results. His own skin is well protected against these gases, but in battle, the coatings may flake off. If he stays at it for at least ten minutes, these noxious gases will eat through a 2" slab of ordinary steel. This is possible in both modes, but is more useful (except to annoy motorists) in robot mode, where the pipes are on his arms. Pipes's most notable ability, which he is not the most proficient at controlling, is to emit clouds of corrosive gases from his exhaust pipes. Only Wreck-Gar can be said really to enjoy an extended tour of Pipes's little museum, but Pipes is a good soldier and a friendly soul, and his comrades generally allow him his little eccentricity. He will gladly talk for endless hours about each prized find. Eventually, a previously disused area of the Ark became his own personal museum of nose hair trimmers, patent rulers, and other worthless but fascinating ephemera of the throwaway society. When he came to Earth, Pipes became enamored of the fleshlings' primitive and ingenious technology and could not resist taking home cast-off examples when on missions. Pipes is an excellent soldier-tough, brave, and very strong-and otherwise worthy of little note, except for his unusual ability and eccentric hobby.
