Brimstone is armed with his beast mode's claws, and Cyber Key-activated blades on each of his wings (Air Knife in Galaxy Force).^[1]

Due to his role as an antagonist, Brimstone is classified as a Decepticon in the toy line. However, his true allegiance in the television series is to Scourge, and he follows Scourge when he allies himself with the Autobots. His Hasbro and Takara tech specs indicated simply that he wasn't too bright - usually leaving the thinking to his partner Undermine. However, he is still extremely dangerous in combat. The Cyber Key info on the Hasbro website revealed that he did have one other love - playing Praxus Fold Em’ data cards at the Jungle Temple for Energon goodies and getting Undermine to do his chores (and vice versa).^[2]

Animated series

Brimstone is one of the servants of Scourge, the leader of Jungle Planet. Though originally the planet was plagued by poverty, marauders, and lawlessness, Scourge would manage to bring order through a policy of dictatorship. Brimstone would aid him in his rise to power, and would become one of his personal underlings and temple guardians.

Often seen with Undermine, who also transformed into a prehistoric saurian, Brimstone's chief role in the series was that of a loyal underling and aerial scout. He is not very bright.

As the Grand Black Hole continued to enlarge, Primus attempted to seal it. This was witnessed through giant space bridges on Velocitron by Brakedown, Clocker and Dirt Boss, on the planet Animatros by Backstop, Undermine and Brimstone, and on Earth (episode 42, "City").

Later, Brimstone would join the Autobots' alliance of Transformers throughout the galaxy along with Scourge and Undermine. He participated in the final battle against Galvatron.

In the final episode of Transformers: Cybertron Optimus Prime proposed a new Space Bridge project using the power of the four Cyber Planet Keys and the four great ships. Many Autobots and former Decepticons joined in the project. Metroplex lead the Giant Planet ship and key with Drillbit, Undermine and Brimstone.
