Transformers: Rescue Bots Academy

• Hot Shot (voiced by Pierce Cravens) - a former Cube player recruited by Optimus Prime, who also gives him a Mul-T-Change T-cog that lets him use a different vehicle mode per day. His regular vehicle mode is a red and yellow ATV, while his alternate forms are a red jet plane and a yellow and red hovercraft boat. He later gains a fourth vehicle form in Season 2 by scanning Heatwave’s fire truck mode.
• Whirl (voiced by Courtney Shaw) - an enthusiastic police trainee who, like Chase, has studied the rules of being a Rescue Bot, and who serves as the team’s optimist and sister figure. She transforms into a blue and light gray police helicopter, and later adopts a blue squad car form during Season 2’s Multi-change story arc.
• Hoist (voiced by Alan Trinca) - an aspiring inventor and mechanic who transforms into a teal green tow truck. In Season 1, he was revealed to be afraid of dinosaurs when Grimlock arrived at the Academy, later fully overcoming his fear in Season 2's "Mission Dinobot." During Season 2’s T-cog story arc, he scanned Grimlock to become a Dinobot himself and now has two transformations.

Like Hot Shot, Optimus Prime believed he had potential and recruited him. He later gains a second sports car mode in homage to his idol, Bumblebee.
