| The name or term "Haywire" refers to more than one character or idea. For a list of other meanings, see Haywire (disambiguation). |
One of the younger Nebulans to binary bond to a Transformer, Haywire (aka Hyperfire) is very much of the "act first, think later"-impulsive-teenage mold. In that respect, the relationship between Haywire and his partner Blurr is one where they get on like a house on fire, but also a classic example of the lack of planning in the early stages of Targetmasters bonding for how effective a combat team they would make. Transforming into an electro-laser cannon, Haywire is just as hyperactive as his partner in combat, often more concerned with how often he fires than where he's aiming or how effective his shots are.

Haywire was among those Nebulans who at great risk to themselves, joined the outlawed Autobots during Zarak and Scorponok's reign of terror on Nebulos. After undergoing the bio-engineering process that allowed them to transform into replacement weapons, they partnered with the six Autobots who had surrendered their weapons some months earlier. In his case, he was binary bonded to Blurr in order to defend his planet from the Decepticon forces. He first saw action in the Autobots' unsuccessful defense of the Nursery; though the Targetmaster upgrade he had undergone allowed him to effectively push back the enemy, the ensuing firefight nonetheless left the facility in ruins. Shortly afterwards, the Autobot forces fled to join those on Earth in an attempt to lure their enemies away, and save Nebulos from further harm. Brothers in Armor!!
Haywire and Blurr went along with the other Autobot Targetmasters selected to accompany Fortress Maximus to Earth to rescue Buster Witwicky, brother of the newly binary-bonded Spike Witwicky, who proceeded to introduce his team to his father. The group's rescue attempt at the Decepticons island base was ultimately unsuccessful. The Desert Island of Space!
A member of Gort's group of freedom fighters, Haywire took part in an ambush to capture beings whom the Nebulans assumed were Hive machines. He was quick to notice that the machines had humans with them and, as it turned out, the machines were actually heroic Autobots. Haywire mused aloud that if they had the physical power of the Autobots, the Hive machines would be no problem. The Rebirth, Part 1
When the Autobots stole Targetmaster technology from the Decepticons, Haywire volunteered to be binary bonded to Blurr. He greeted the Autobot leader Optimus Prime to Nebulos by boasting about his ability to hit a target from a distance of four thousand yards. The Rebirth, Part 2 Like the other Nebulans, he traveled to Cybertron with the Autobots, and helped to close the Plasma Energy Chamber and bring a new Golden Age to the planet. Afterward, they returned to Nebulos to rid the planet of the Hive's machines. The Rebirth, Part 3
Hyperfire was one of the ancient Titan Masters that once crewed the vast Titan robots at the dawn of time. His unique Spark possessed the power to grant the gift of enhanced speed to any being he joined with. This speed made him one of the few beings alive who could keep up with the Autobot Blurr and made him a target for power hungry Decepticons. Titans Return Blurr/Hyperfire toy bio
On the planet Velocitron, Hyperfire was driving Blurr, as the pair competed in the planet's biggest race against Wheelie. Before they were finished, Hyperfire found himself the target of Scourge and Crashbash, who tried to capture him. Titans Return: The Power of the Titan Masters
Haywire was one of the Autobot Targetmasters whom Hyperfire warned of the impending Targetmaster Extirpation. Trigger Warnings
The Haywire Laser was a powerful laser gun and the ultimate MVP Weapon created by the Laser Beasts. Tigerburn brought it with him to the Legends World to defeat White Leo, only for White Lune to use the power of the Three Wise Ones' gems to merge with it. The Haywire Laser became White Lune's body, and in this form she was able to transform from a gun into a robot. LG51 Targetmaster Doublecross
