Leadfoot is the name of several fictional characters from the Transformers franchise. First introduced in 1994, all the characters named Leadfoot have been heroic Autobots who turn into cars. Versions of the character have appeared among in the comics, been marketed as toys, and appeared in the 2011 feature film, Transformers: Dark of the Moon.
Leadfoot was a part of both the Wreckers, an Autobot commando team, and the Rotor Force, a group that fired rotor props from his engine.
Leadfoot is totally cool under pressure - even as he infiltrates enemy base camps at 180 mph. In race car mode, he can frighten even the strongest Decepticons because they know it's best to steer clear of his fearsome firepower. He's equipped with alloy-sensitive laser circuitry that defuses enemy radar and enables him to race into battle virtually undetected, then he fires his devastating "rotoprop" weapon to destroy Decepticons in milliseconds.
Leadfoot appeared in the Marvel Transformers: Generation 2 comics.
Bludgeon, current leader of the Decepticons planned to create an army of Decepticons, so he constructed the bodies of the Rotor Force and Laser Rods. When Megatron killed Bludgeon and took back leadership of the Decepticons, one of his first actions was to steal the Matrix from Optimus Prime. The Matrix was then used to bring the new Decepticons to life.
In issue #7 Rotor Force Leadfoot, Manta Ray, Powerdive and Ransack) and the Laser Rods (Electro, Jolt, Sizzle and Volt) were sent to steal Rheanimum, a potent substance Megatron intended to use in his quest for power, from the planet Tykos.
