Description
This should be the last G1 fembot based on a toy in my collection of drawings. I had to dig really deep here. Discharge (don't laugh at her name) is a Japanese only release from 1992. That is the last year of G1 Transformers before Generation 2 which started in Marvel Comics the same year. Her toy was also reissued/knocked off some years later. She is a micromaster fire truck and is a member of the Six Turbo combiner team.

Like Clipper I drew before I kept the boxy look due to her being a Micromaster. Her feminine features are pretty tough to pull off due to her toy having a face mask (present) and an eye visor. I opted to make the visor transparent so she can see looking through the fire. But I did keep the mask (does she really need a mask since they can breathe in the vacuum of space) so no mouth. I could find only one reference of Discharge in a official drawn form online. The rest was devised from her toy. The manga image shrank the toy's waist to help show her as a fembot. Also the toy already provided a large bust. Unlike my other fembots I gave her hands one generally sees in the modern Transformers comics. My thinking is she is in a fire fighter suit. So big gloves for hands. In fact one of the wikis hints that she is bulky for this reason.

Unlike my Clipper drawing I like how this one came out with the angle and her form.
