Brawn is the name of several fictional characters from the various Transformers universes. All are tough Autobots who turn into offroad vehicles.
Brawn is one of the strongest Autobots in the Transformers television and comic book series, both based on the popular toy line produced by Takara and Hasbro. His vehicle mode is a Land Rover Series III 4x4. Brawn has not had a mass market toy release for several years and, until recently, the character has not been featured in the modern Transformers Universe.
The original toy that became Brawn was first released by Takara in 1983 as part of the Micro Change subset of the Japanese Microman line. He was released in the US by Hasbro in 1984 as one of the first assortment of American Transformers toys.
Brawn's character biography describes him as one of the original eighteen Autobots - very strong despite his small size. He is further described as brave with physical strength that almost matches Optimus Prime, able to lift weights of up to 190,000 lbs. and strong enough to level a small building with a single punch. His physical resilience is also high enough to resist artillery fire, but he has an innate weakness to attacks based on electromagnetic waves. Brawn loves rugged and hostile environments and is always up to test his mettle against a new challenge.
Brawn's biography in Marvel Comics' 1986 Transformers Universe mini-series further expands on his character, explaining that Brawn is often teamed with Bumblebee on missions because of their complementary skills. And while his never-say-die attitude improved the Autobots' morale, he is somewhat less than accepting of those not as "tough" as he is, a fact made known by how badly he treated Perceptor in the Season 2 episode Microbots [1].
