'''Chip Chase''' is a human ally of the [[Autobot]]s and [[Spike Witwicky]]'s best friend. Suffering from some unknown malady, Chip uses a wheelchair. He isn't defined by his disability though, but rather by his geeky genius-level skills with computers, programming, and electronics.

He also has tremendous upper body strength.

"Courage!"

==Fiction==

===Generation 1 cartoon===
:''Voice actor:'' [[Michael Horton]] (US), [[Keiichi Nanba]] (Japan)

Chip Chase came to the attentions of the Autobots as a friend of [[Spike Witwicky]] and the whiz behind [[Dr. Alcazar]]'s [[antimatter]] formula project. Though the Decepticons stole the antimatter formula, Chip memorized the data.

Chip has a remarkably advanced (or at least ridiculously expensive) desktop computer for 1984. It contains among other things, a 16 Million color monitor (Chip's view of the Decepticons was no different than [[Prowl (G1)|Prowl's]]), a microphone, dial up networking, speakers, and a soundcard that could interpret Prowl's speech. Maybe he's friends with [[Ethan Zachary]].

Chip once tore a [[Floppy disk|floppy disk]] apart with '' his bare hands''. This may explain why [[Optimus Prime (G1)|Optimus Prime]] is [[Afterdeath!|keen to stay in his good books]].

Chip is a graduate of Yal University, is able to survive [[acid rain]], and once saved the world by getting [[Thrust (G1)|Thrust]] to shoot [[Teletraan-1]].

He once told a group of Autobots that, "No one is really disabled as long as they have courage." If any human was an illustration of this, it's Chip Chase.

===Scramble City OVA===

''(Note: the [[Scramble City]] OVA takes place after the events of the second season of the US cartoon, but before ''[[The Transformers: The Movie (1986)|The Transformers: The Movie]]''.)''

Chip can be seen alongside Spike, [[Sparkplug Witwicky|Sparkplug]] and Carly helping to construct [[Autobot City]].

===Binaltech===

When [[Prowl_(G1)|Prowl's]] [[Spark|Laser Core]] was lost to [[Subspace]] in a [[Genetronic Translink|GT]] Transfer accident(a technology he himself helped to create), Chip Chase volunteered to sacrifice his very own soul in order to breath life into the now lifeless Prowl-2, stating "Twenty years ago, we met thanks to an online message from you. Your battle computer was down, and in its place, I--" {{Storylink|Roll For It}} while something flashed in the back of his mind "Your intelligence and personality are already in this frame. In which case..." With the help of [[Ratchet_(G1)|Ratchet]] and [[Wheeljack_(G1)|Wheeljack]] Chip's consciousness was transported into Prowl's frame. The new entity created in this fusion is virtually indistinguishable from Prowl's old persona, thanks to copies of the original Prowl's [[Memory Core]] and [[Datatrax]], while a separate Nerocomputer handles Chip's thought processes. Meanwhile Chip's real body was stored in stasis in an [[EDC]] medical facility.

===Transformers: The Game (2007)===
He apparently owns a chain of fast food burger joints (Named 'Chip Chase's' oddly enough) with his face on the packaging. Wonder if the TV ads are as scary as the ones featuring the Burger King.

==Trivia==
* Chip and [[Carly]] never appeared in the same episode during the entire US run, coincidence!? ''Shocking dual identitity?!?!'' (Or maybe the two of them just can't stand to be in the same room for whatever reason...) ''The only time they're both seen on screen is near the beginning of the [[Scramble City]] episode. Blink twice and you'll miss'em.

Bonecrusher (Movie)

2007-09-06T03:18:40Z

172.142.117.103: /* ''Ghosts of Yesterday'' novel */

{{Template:Disambig3|Bonecrusher}}

:''Bonecrusher is a [[Decepticon]] from the [[Movie (franchise)|Movie]] [[continuity family]].''

[[Image:Big_run.jpg|right|thumb|400px|He was a sk8ter boi, she said see ya later boy.]]

'''Bonecrusher''' is a Transformer that can be described with one word: Hate. Bonecrusher hates this wiki. Bonecrusher hates the fact that his toy is so small. Bonecrusher even hates amusingly appropriate Avril Lavigne quotes. Basically Bonecrusher hates everything and everyone, particularly buses, and lives for the day when all of creation is crushed and destroyed beneath his feet. If anyone tries to befriend him (with the possible exception of folks from Force Protection, as noted below), he will have nothing to do with them. His overwhelming anger and hatred extends even to his fellow Decepticons, including [[Megatron (Movie)|Megatron]] himself. Only fear of Megatron keeps him on their side. Plus, he ''really'' hates the [[Autobots]].

He transforms into a Buffalo mine clearing vehicle used by the military. It is made exclusively in South Carolina and the drivers routinely use it to drive to the local Taco Bell/Pizza Hut. He hates drivers, the mine clearing vehicle, the drive-thrus, and South Carolina. He loves tacos, however.

{{spoiler}}

===''Ghosts of Yesterday'' novel===
[[Image:Movie_Bonecrusher_busshove_Primeattack1.jpg|right|120px|thumb|Bonecrusher hates being on fire, but normally, he loves to watch things burn.]]

Bonecrusher was aboard the crew of the ''[[Nemesis (Movie)|Nemesis]]'', led by [[Starscream (Movie)|Starscream]], who were searching for Megatron, who was lost thousands of years ago, along with the [[AllSpark]]. He hated the ''Nemesis'', but would hate trying to walk home more. He also hated the AllSpark, but Megatron wanted it, so he decided not to complain. Finally, he hated Starscream, but all the other Decepticons do as well, making it something he has in common with his fellow Decepticons. He hated that.

He's described as being a terrible shot, but he doesn't really mind, as he much prefers to kill with his bare hands.

===Transformers The Game (console)===
:''Voice actor:'' [[Daniel Riordan]]

:''('''Note''': Bonecrusher only appears in the Decepticon campaign of the game, and as a non-playable character t'boot.)''

While hiding in a military base, Bonecrusher came under attack by the humans twice, and required assistance from Starscream to escape. He hates needing help from people, especially from people he hates.

===''Transformers'' (2007) film===
:''Voice actor:'' [[Jimmie Wood]] (English)

Bonecrusher was hiding out in the motor pool of a military base when he received a communique from Starscream ordering the Decepticons to to mobilize and converge on the location of the All Spark. He rendezvoused with [[Barricade (Movie)|Barricade]] and [[Brawl (Movie)|Devastator]], and the three Decepticons headed off together to intercept the Autobots and their human allies who had the All Spark in their possession.

Devastator wandered off somewhere, so Bonecrusher and Barricade continued their pursuit on the freeway. Barricade activated his sirens to clear the traffic and allow them more maneuvering room. Unsatisfied with Barricade's less conspicuous method, and since he hated rush-hour traffic, Bonecrusher used his mine-scoop to flip cars out of his way. (He kinda liked that.)

[[Image:Movie_Bonecrusher_carflip.jpg|left|200px|thumb|Well, that's ''another'' thing that he hates.]]

After Barricade pulled over to the side of the road, Bonecrusher transformed while still moving and skated towards the Autobots. [[Optimus Prime (Movie)|Optimus Prime]] transformed and slid into position to block his path. Seeing the Autobot he really hated (and that's saying a lot), Bonecrusher smashed through a bus (it irked him), and tackled Optimus Prime, pushing him off an overpass tumbling and falling off the edge, dragging the Autobot leader down with him.

However, Optimus Prime hit Bonecrusher so hard one of the Decepticon's [[optics]] popped free from its socket (he liked that eye... well, no, he didn't, he just hated not having it more), and the two played a little cat-and-mouse along the overpasses. After Prime jumped down to ground level, Bonecrusher swung his tail widly at the Autobot, all the while screaming incoherently. This gave Optimus the opportunity he needed to get his sword ready... which the Autobot used to sever Bonecrusher's right arm and stab through the Decepticon's neck, decapitating him. Optimus then wrenched the head from it's neck and discarded it on the ground, he hated that too.

Bonecrusher hates his movie role (and [[Michael Bay]] too).

*'''Bonecrusher''' (Deluxe, 2007)
:''Japanese ID Number:'' '''MD-09'''

[[Image:moviebonecrushertoy.jpg|left|200px|thumb|The name's doomed to be nothing but bulldozers or [[Bonecrusher (BW)|buffaloes]]. And he hates that.]]

: Bonecrusher transforms into a [[wikipedia:Buffalo_%28mine_protected_vehicle%29|Buffalo mine-protected vehicle]], with an articulated "mine-fork" for removing mines or cars or robots or unsuspecting buildings from his path. He has six rolling wheels in this mode, and two sculpted, non-functional spare wheels.

: In robot mode he has elements resembling both his 2005 design and the final design used in the movie, though a major deviation to both designs is that the entire front shell halves of the vehicle mode are mounted upon his arms. His arms have limited articulation due to this [[kibble]], but can extend out into '''really''' long arms. His legs fare better, with ball jointed hips, swivel knees and ankles, but his hips can often detach from the codpiece holding them together. The mine-fork splits to form a grabber-claw, which can snap onto victims with a geared slider [[Automorph]] mechanism.

: He is surprisingly okay with these little tools of death.

: He is named 'Bonescrusher' on the Canadian [[Cross-Sell]].

==Trivia==
[[image:PhotoshopedBuffalo.PNG|250px|thumb|*''Giant fork and Decepticon insignia not included with the real Buffalo.'' Bonecrusher hates that.]]
*The real Buffalo mine-sweeping vehicle hasn't in fact, such a huge fork. It is only 14 inches (35 cm) wide. The image that inspired Bonecrusher's design was actually a Photoshopped image put on the official Force Protection company's site to make it look more impressive[http://www.forceprotection.net/models/buffalo/]. A 10-foot-wide (3 m) appliance had to be fixed on Bonecrusher's arm for the movie. He hated that.[http://enewsi.com/news.php?catid=190&itemid=11213]

*Force Protection really, really loves Bonecrusher and that he has picked their Buffalo as its alt mode and is quite proud of it.[http://www.forceprotection.net/news/transformers.html] Bonecrusher is not sure what to think about that.

*It's a matter of debate whether or not Bonecrusher actually said anything intelligible in English during his brief appearance in the finished film, or whether he is talking in [[Cybertronian languages|Cybertronian]]. At various points in his fight with Optimus Pime, he does emit three less-garbled-than-the-rest-of-his-roaring noises that ''might'' be "OP-ti-MASSS!" (just after transforming), "Take that, Prime!" (just before the kid says "Cool, mom!") and the ever-appropos "I hate you!" as he lunges at Prime just before getting his head taken off. At the same time, though, they might just be coincidentally soundalike roars that viewers are attributing words too. We'd tell you to go and decide for yourself, but Bonecrusher would probably hate that.
