During the era of [[the Unicron Battles]], '''Grindor''' was the Mini-Con partner to [[Carlos Lopez]], allowing him to shred in style. Wicked!

They seem to have eventually drifted apart, as Grindor spent much of his time around [[Kicker Jones]] in later years.

He combines with his fellow [[Street Action Mini-Con Team (Armada)|Street Action Mini-Con Team]] members to form [[Perceptor (Armada)|Perceptor]].

==Fiction==
===Cartoon continuity===
====''Armada'' cartoon====
Grindor was among the earliest Mini-Cons created from [[Unicron]]'s cells. He was present in the distant past when the time-traveling Earth children made contact with High Wire, and awakened the Mini-Cons' capacity for independent thought. {{storylink|Drift (episode)|Drift}}

Millions of years later, Grindor, along with [[Sureshock (Armada)|Sureshock]], was discovered inside the crashed Mini-Con ship on Earth by [[High Wire (Armada)|High Wire]] and his human friends. He was activated when [[Carlos Lopez]] made contact with his storage panel, apparently creating a link between the two. Despite this, he was initially rather unresponsive to Carlos, but they soon formed a friendship after Grindor scanned Carlos's skateboard as his new alt mode. The kids and Street Action Team were having a wild time playing together when [[Megatron (Armada)|Megatron]] and the Decepticons appeared to capture them. Luckily, [[Optimus Prime (Armada)|Optimus Prime]] and the Autobots stepped in to protect the smaller robots. {{storylink|Metamorphosis}}

At school, Carlos pretended Grindor was an old school thrash board from the 80's when [[Billy (Armada)|Billy]] and [[Fred (Armada)|Fred]] questioned them about their new vehicles. Back at the Autobot base inside the Mini-Con ship, Grindor and the other Mini-Cons agreed to help the Autobots find the Mini-Cons and keep them out of Decepticon slavery and control. {{storylink|Base}}

On their first Mini-Con hunt, Grindor and the Street Action Team worked with Optimus Prime in [[Grand Canyon|Big Canyon]], surveying the area for any signs of storage panels. When the Decepticons arrived to intervene, the Street Action Team displayed their ability to combine for the first time, forming [[Perceptor (Armada)|Perceptor]]. The agile Mini-Con gestalt miraculously overwhelmed both Megatron and [[Starscream (Armada)|Starscream]] until Optimus Prime could [[powerlinx]] with his new partner, [[Sparkplug (Armada)|Sparkplug]], and unleash a Maximum Blast. {{storylink|Comrade}}

Grindor and the Street Action Team joined the kids in teaching [[Hot Shot (Armada)|Hot Shot]] how to play the game of "Tag" inside the Autobot base. Hot Shot was worn out trying to chase them down until he thought to use [[Jolt (Armada)|Jolt]] to "tag" the kids for him. Grindor and the other Mini-Cons later accompanied the Autobots to Antarctica to search for a new Mini-Con. They used Prime's trailer as a mobile headquarters from which they coordinated the search. {{storylink|Soldier (episode)|Soldier}} Later, Grindor helped Rad and the kids bring supplies up to the Autobot base. He and the other Mini-Cons then joined the Autobots on a mission to the forest, where a firefight with the Decepticons led to a forest fire. Working with Red Alert, the Mini-Cons converted Optimus Prime's trailer into a fire engine, pumping water from a nearby lake to put out the fires. {{storylink|Jungle}}

One day, High Wire and Grindor went out to a carnival with Rad and Carlos. Hijinx ensued. {{storylink|Carnival}} Out on a desert mission, Grindor was trying to get the drop on Demolishor when he and the rest of the kids and Street Action Team were caught in a sandtrap. They fell into a deep series of catacombs, built by denizens of the [[Sahara]] long ago after they discovered a Mini-Con storage panel in the sand. Grindor and the others were nearly killed by the various traps and guards protecting the panel underground, and the Mini-Con team had to form Perceptor to protect the kids from harm. {{storylink|Palace}}

When Billy and Fred were kidnapped by Cyclonus, Grindor and his friends attempted to rescue them, only to be captured themselves by Megatron. They were saved once Fred used Laserbeak to zap Megatron and distract him long enough for the Autobots to save the day. {{storylink|Confrontation (episode)|Confrontation}} As the search for more Mini-Cons continued, Grindor and the Street Action Team participated in a mission deep underground in a city's subway tunnels. {{storylink|Underground}} They also confronted Megatron in a sunken underwater city, but the Decepticons succeeded in capturing the dormant Mini-Cons on both occasions. {{storylink|Ruin}}

As Rad began to learn more about the Mini-Cons, he started to question whether they should be forced to fight in a war not of their making. Almost as if in answer to his concerns, Grindor and the other Mini-Cons took up arms in the next conflict, showing valor and courage on the battlefield that made it clear they were fighting for what they believed in, just like the Autobots and the kids. {{storylink|Prehistory}}

Grindor and the Street Action Team were present for the Autobots' first encounter with [[Sideways (RID)|Sideways]]. {{storylink|Gale}} Sometime later, Grindor and High Wire went camping with Red Alert, [[Smokescreen (Armada)|Smokescreen]] and the boys. {{storylink|Vacation}} When [[Blurr (Armada)|Blurr]] rescued [[Incinerator (Armada)|Incinerator]] from the Decepticons' clutches, Grindor and the Street Action Team were the first Mini-Cons to welcome him to the Autobot base. {{storylink|Reinforcement}} Later, Grindor's team and Jolt helped create a miniature obstacle course from Hot Shot and Blurr to train on. {{storylink|Decisive Battle}}

Soon after, Grindor and the Street Action Team received a transmission from the [[Land Military Mini-Con Team|Land Military Team]] on the moon. It seemed that some of the Decepticon-allied Mini-Cons wanted peace, and were seeking an opportunity to come over to the Autobots. With the help of Rad and Fred, they convinced Optimus Prime to give the "enemy" Mini-Cons a chance, and soon the Autobots had a number of new allies. {{storylink|Vow}}

When a computer virus named [[Sideways (RID)|Sideways]] infiltrated the Autobot mainframe, High Wire, Grindor and Sureshock helped the kids fight back against the infection. Sideways still had a few tricks up his sleeve, however, and he converted the minds of the Street Action Team and the kids into computerized avatars, sucking them into his digital world. In this unreal landscape, they passed by representations of Cybertron and [[Jetfire (Armada)|other]] [[Tidal Wave (Armada)|figures]], before being chased by a [[Unicron|shadowy planetoid]] back into the real world along a path Red Alert made for them. {{storylink|Chase (episode)|Chase}}

After the Autobots rescued [[Dune Runner (Armada)|Dune Runner]]'s Mini-Con panel, Grindor and the Street Action Team were the first to welcome him to the Autobot headquarters. {{storylink|Tactician}} On monitor duty, the Street Action Team ID'ed [[Thrust (Armada)|Thrust]] flying in circles over the Autobot base, and reported it to Vice-Commander [[Jetfire (Armada)|Jetfire]] while Optimus was in repairs. The kids had to translate for Jetfire, though, and he'd never bothered to learn his Mini-Con bleeps from his bloops. {{storylink|Linkup}}

Grindor and Sureshock joined the kids in the cheering section as Jetfire beat [[Smokescreen (Armada)|Smokescreen]] in arm-wrestling three out of three times. {{storylink|Detection}} When a Mini-Con signal went off linking the three [[Space Mini-Con Team]] panels, Grindor and the others reacted when the signal pointed to a panel hidden right inside their own base. They joined the kids in searching out the panel in the damaged sections of the ship. The search party came across [[Sky Blast]]'s panel, activating the Mini-Con. To everyone's surprise, however, Sky Blast appeared openly hostile. {{storylink|Awakening}} It soon became apparent, though, that Sky Blast was merely frightened. He cowered behind Rad when Grindor and the others formed Perceptor to protect the kids. They eventually coaxed him back out into the main part of the base, and convinced the new Mini-Con to assist the Autobots. {{storylink|Desperate}}

Grindor was present when Starscream first switched sides to join the Autobots. {{storylink|Regeneration}} During the subsequent raid on the Decepticon base, Grindor and the Street Action Team accompanied the Autobots as Perceptor, and focused on freeing the Mini-Cons while the Autobots engaged the enemy. Perceptor briefly split into his three components when avoiding an attack by Tidal Wave. {{storylink|Rescue}}

After Starscream and Jetfire rescued [[Firebot (Armada)|Firebot]] from [[Mars (planet)|Mars]], Grindor was among the Mini-Cons who welcomed the new arrival to the Autobots. {{storylink|Mars (episode)|Mars}}

As the Decepticons threatened the safety of Earth with their [[Hydra Cannon]], Grindor and the Street Action Team watched helplessly with the kids as the Autobots tried to counter the threat. {{storylink|Crisis}}

Grindor and the Mini-Cons all chose to willingly follow the Autobots into space aboard the ''[[Axalon (Armada)|Axalon]]'', fighting alongside them against the Decepticons. When Hot Shot attempted to leave the kids behind, however, the Street Action Team formed Perceptor and organized a mutiny of the Mini-Con troops. They passively took over the bridge and made it clear by speaking in English for the first time that the humans were coming along...or else. {{storylink|Depart}}

The ''[[Axalon (Armada)|Axalon]]'' made its way into space, and soon joined by other Mini-Cons empowered by the [[Linkage (dimension)|Linkage]]. Grindor and the Street Action Team telepathically explained to the kids that the Mini-Cons were all coming together to fight the great enemy...[[Unicron]]. As they encountered the Decepticon ship, Grindor helped organized the Mini-Cons on-board to man the armaments and fight back against Megatron's troops. {{storylink|Miracle}}

Once they arrived in orbit around Cybertron, Grindor immediately sensed Unicron's presence. The Mini-Cons all quickly gathered together in space, forming a shield against a deadly black hole Sideways had formed as a "surprise" for the Autobots. When the Autobots confronted Galvatron's Decepticon armada, the Mini-Cons assembled once more, creating illusions to disguise the ''Axalon'' amidst a horde of duplicate ships. As the power of the black hole became stronger and stronger, the Mini-Cons unified in a green ball of energy, neutralizing the threat with a rain of light. Grindor and the Mini-Cons implored Galvatron and the others to stop fighting, but only succeeded in getting a temporary cessation of hostilities. {{storylink|Uprising}}

After Thrust stole the [[Skyboom Shield]] and [[Requiem Blaster (Armada)|Requiem Blaster]] for Unicron, High Wire recognized the place where Hot Shot was searching for the traitor, and so the kids and the Street Action Team made their way underground to join the search party. {{storylink|Drift (episode)|Drift}} This led to a fight with Thrust and [[Sideways (RID)|Sideways]] inside the core of Unicron, who stood revealed as Cybertron's moon. {{storylink|Portent}} Later, Grindor and the others watch on helplessly as Unicron grew more powerful, and Starscream sacrificed himself to bring an alliance between the Autobots and Decepticons. {{storylink|Cramp}} As the truce was forged between the two factions, Grindor and the Street Action Team attended as representatives of the Mini-Cons. They formed Perceptor and joined hands with Optimus Prime and Galvatron to commemorate the occasion. {{storylink|Alliance}}

With the united Transformer armada bringing the fight to Unicron, the war council reached the conclusion that Unicron needed the three super-weapons to power himself. Their best course of action therefore was to penetrate Unicron's defenses and awaken the nine individual Mini-Cons that comprised the weapons, separating their will from Unicron. Although Prime and Galvatron infiltrated Unicron to achieve that purpose, High Wire, Grindor and Sureshock determined ''they'' would need to be present in order to push the Mini-Cons back to consciousness. The Street Action Team and the kids made their way into Unicron using the hidden warp tunnel below Cybertron's surface. {{storylink|Union}}

In Unicron's heart, Grindor and the others found Optimus and Galvatron facing off against Sideways. Shockingly, Unicron was able to reassert control over the Mini-Cons, placing them back under his personal domination. Their enslavement was only temporary, however, as the kids were able to reach out to Grindor and the others, awakening them so that they could awaken the Mini-Cons of the Star Saber, Skyboom Shield and Requiem Blaster in turn, causing Unicron to grind to a halt. {{storylink|Origin}} As Optimus Prime and Galvatron remained inside Unicron to settle the final score between them, Grindor and the assorted kids and Mini-Cons escaped aboard Jetfire. After the final destruction of Unicron and Galvatron, the Street Action Team accompanied Hot Shot and Jetfire back to Earth, where they said their final goodbyes to the children. {{storylink|Mortal Combat}}

====''Energon'' cartoon====
[[Image:Energon KickerGrindor Ep5.jpg|thumb|right|175px|Forget what we said in [[The Transformers: The Movie|the movie]]. Hoverboards will be a common thing in 2020, not ''2005''!]]

Grindor and his team were among the very few Mini-Cons still around on Earth and Cybertron ten years after the Unicron Battles. They primarily stayed at [[Ocean City]] and were close to [[Kicker Jones]]. Kicker was seen riding Grindor's hoverboard mode, eager to jump into battle, but he quickly left Grindor behind when the chance to ride in a real spaceship like [[Jetfire (Armada)|Jetfire]] presented itself. {{storylink|Energon Stars}}

Grindor made an extremely rare appearance in his individual robot mode when other Mini-Cons visited Ocean City from Mars. {{storylink|Megatron's Sword}}

Grindor accompanied Kicker on a search for new energon sources in the frozen north. An icey wind storm kicked up while doing a sweep, and the two fell into a ravine. They were unable to boost out of it on their own, which became increasingly worrisome when the [[Terrorcon (Energon)|Terrorcon]]s arrived to snatch the energon. Eventually, [[Strongarm (Energon)|Strongarm]] managed to lower a pipe to lift both of them to safety. {{storylink|The New Cybertron City}} Grindor continued to serve as Kicker's personal hoverboard as the Autobots defended various mining installations from Terrorcon attacks. {{storylink|Megatron Resurrected}}

After [[Ironhide (Energon)|Ironhide]] went missing on a search for Alpha Q, Grindor deployed to assist Kicker in tracking him down. {{storylink|Battle Stations}}

===Dreamwave comics continuity===
====Dreamwave ''Armada'' comic====
Alongside High Wire, Sureshock and [[Sparkplug (Armada)|Sparkplug]], Grindor lay dormant near present-day [[Lincoln]] for a million years after the crash of the Mini-Con [[Exodus (Armada)|escape vessel]]. One day, [[Rad White]] stumbled upon their wrecked piece of the ship and reactivated them along with all other Mini-Cons on Earth. After repairing themselves, Grindor and the others quickly befriended Rad and his buddies, [[Carlos Lopez|Carlos]] and [[Alexis Thi Dang|Alexis]], and even built them a [[Project Supernova|hovercraft]]. {{storylink|Dreamwave Armada issue 3|Armada #3}} Unfortunately, not even a day passed before the [[Decepticon]]s tracked the Mini-Cons to Earth, and they had to explain to their human friends that they were involved in a war. The Street Action Team scanned new [[alternate mode]]s and escaped to a canyon, where they ran into a team of [[Autobot]]s. {{storylink|Dreamwave Armada issue 4|Armada #4}} Grindor and his friends were briefly captured by [[Demolishor (Armada)|Demolishor]], but eventually the Mini-Cons and Autobots joined forces and chased the Decepticons off. {{storylink|Dreamwave Armada issue 5|Armada #5}}

Later, the Street Action Team was present when Sparkplug tried to convince [[Optimus Prime (Armada)|Optimus Prime]] to let him infiltrate the Decepticon base. {{storylink|Dreamwave Armada issue 6|Armada #6}} After rescuing Rad from a [[Billy (Armada)|bully]], Grindor and the others were driving around with their friends when the [[Mini-Con Ark]]'s beacon struck. The Street Action Team stopped responding and started driving mindlessly towards the Ark with their passengers still on them. After all the Mini-Cons on Earth were gathered around the Ark, they entered it, and it took off into space. {{storylink|Dreamwave Armada issue 8|Armada #8}} Grindor and the other Mini-Cons were taken to the [[Moon (moon)|Moon]], where another group of Mini-Cons led by [[Dualor (Armada)|Dualor]] had constructed a [[Mini-Con Moonbase|fortress]] where they could live in peace forever. This saddened Grindor, High Wire and Sureshock, who would rather live on Earth with their human friends. {{storylink|Dreamwave Armada issue 9|Armada #9}} Fortunately for them, the moonbase had to be evacuated following a Decepticon attack. {{storylink|Dreamwave Armada issue 11|Armada #11}}

After returning to Earth, Grindor listened to one of [[Rook (Armada)|Rook]]'s pro-Mini-Con independence speeches. {{storylink|Fire & Ice}} He wasn't seen again until the Autobots learned that [[Unicron]] was targeting [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]], at which point all Mini-Cons gathered in order to fight him. After saying their goodbyes to Rad, Carlos and Alexis, the Street Action Team returned to their home planet and joined the other Mini-Cons in pouring their energies into the [[Mini-Con Matrix]]. This allowed [[Over-Run (Armada)|Over-Run]] to fire a massive energy blast at Unicron, crippling him. {{storylink|The End}}

====''Energon'' comic====
Ten years later, Grindor, High Wire and Sureshock learned that the [[Terrorcon (Energon)|Terrorcons]] were attacking Earth cities. Worried about their old human friends, they volunteered to travel to Earth and fight this new threat in the form of [[Perceptor (Armada)|Perceptor]]. {{storylink|Multiplicity, Pt. 2}} They were assigned to [[Jetfire (Armada)|Jetfire]]'s team in [[Los Angeles]], which they defended against a huge swarm of [[Insecticon (Energon)|Insecticons]]. {{storylink|Multiplicity, Pt. 3}} Overwhelmed by the number of Terrorcons, Perceptor and the rest of the team quickly began to run low on energy, but they were saved when Rad showed up in the [[Energon Volant Accumulator|E.V.A.]] and sprayed them with [[Energon gas]]. {{storylink|Multiplicity, Pt. 4}}

===Panini ''Armada'' comic===
Back when Cybertron was peaceful, Grindor enjoyed entertaining his friends with extraordinary feats, such as lifting heavy metal boxes. {{storylink|Panini Armada issue 3|Just a Memory!}}

After escaping from Cybertron, Grindor and several other Mini-Cons crashed on [[Earth]], where they woke up four million years later. {{storylink|First Encounter!}} While they initially refused to get involved with the Autobot-Decepticon war again, the Mini-Cons changed their minds after witnessing [[Rad White]]'s displaying great amounts of courage in order to save [[Optimus Prime (Armada)|Optimus Prime]]. Grindor raced into battle and fired on Megatron to little effect, but the distraction allowed Optimus Prime to summon Autobot reinforcements. {{storylink|Panini Armada issue 2|Friends and Foes!}} After spending some time as [[Carlos Lopez|Carlos]]'s racing vehicle, Grindor and his friends on the Street Action Team were sent to recover a [[locator log]] from the wrecked Mini-Con ship. When they found it, they were suddenly attacked by [[Demolishor (Armada)|Demolishor]], who trapped Grindor under some debris. He offered his blaster to Rad, urging him to destroy the locator log before the Decepticon got it, but Rad thought of a plan to take out both the log and Demolishor. {{storylink|Panini Armada issue 3|Deep Trouble!}}

The Street Action Team subsequently began watching their human friends from the shadows in order to learn how to fit in on Earth. As he witnessed Carlos trying to impress his friends with skating tricks, Grindor helped out by using his rocket-powered skateboard mode to let Carlos loop, grind and even fly. Unfortunately, Carlos was not pleased with his "help", as he now had to explain those crazy moves to his friends. {{storylink|Panini Armada issue 3|Just a Memory!}} Some time later, the Autobots tried to send Grindor and the other the Mini-Cons back to Cybertron to keep them safe, but the plans fell through. {{storylink|Panini Armada issue 4|No Way Back!}} The Street Action Team went back to playing around with their human friends, but were suddenly targeted for capture by [[Starscream (Armada)|Starscream]]. While the humans went to get help, Grindor combined with his teammates into Perceptor and did battle with the Decepticon. They were nearly defeated by their enemy, who was wielding [[Star Saber (Armada)|Star Saber]], but Optimus Prime arrived to save the day. {{storylink|Panini Armada issue 7|The Two-Edged Blade}}

When the Decepticons planned to wipe the Autobots out with missiles fired from the [[Moon (moon)|Moon]], the Mini-Cons offered to surrender themselves in order to buy their friends some time. The Decepticons happily accepted, and Grindor and the others were stuffed aboard a [[solar barge]]. {{storylink|Panini Armada issue 8|Earthshaker!}} As [[Cyclonus (Armada)|Cyclonus]] pulled the barge towards the Moon, the Mini-Cons promptly broke out, beat him up, and returned to Earth. {{storylink|Panini Armada issue 8|Lost in Space!}}

===Something Robotic This Way Comes===
The three Mini-Cons were unable to grasp the explanation which Alexis, Carlos and Rad gave them about [[Halloween]], so the three kids invited them along Trick-or-Treating with them. Grindor was confused when Rad said something about soaping the windows on a house if they didn't give out candy. {{storylink|Something Robotic This Way Comes}}

===Bendon ''Armada'' books===
Grindor was with the kids when they talked Optimus into letting them explore some nearby caves for Mini-Con crystals... and seemingly didn't actually go along with them. {{storylink|Cave Catastrophe}}

Grindor did, however, participate in a mini-con race the kids had that also involved Sureshock and High Wire. Unsurprisingly, Megatron used the situation as an excuse to attack them. {{storylink|Race to Disaster}}
