<br />
'''Mainframe''' is a malevolent monster of a Decepticon. Rather than possessing a conventional alternate mode, Mainframe changes shape by draining the energy from any mechanism, living or unliving. He can then duplicate that mechanism's form to the smallest detail.<br />
<br />
He also possesses the ability to [[Plasma Drone|generate]] [[Shock Drone|numerous]] [[Vortex Drone|drone]] [[Glacier Drone|units]] by duplicating his own body structure, although apparently even this degree of authority is insufficient for the megalomaniacal Mainframe - his thirst for power may be as unquenchable as [[Megatron (Movie)|Megatron]]'s or [[Starscream (Movie)|Starscream]]'s.<br />

==Fiction==<br />
===Bumblebee's Mission Log===<br />

<br />
Mainframe was exiled from [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]] two hundred years ago after a short-lived usurpal of Megatron's position. He evidently made his way to [[Earth]], where he was almost certainly responsible for the disappearance of [[Flash (Movie)|Flash]] and [[Ridge]] and the apparent death of [[Sphinx]].<br />
<br />
Once the [[Autobot]]s were able to break enough of his encoded communications to his troops, however, [[Bumblebee (Movie)|Bumblebee]] was able to flush Mainframe into the open by feeding him false information about the location of the [[All Spark]]. A full-scale war between Mainframe's drones and the Earthbound [[Chevy Autobot]]s resulted. During the conflict, Mainframe used a trap to abduct Bumblebee and drain his spark, prompting Autobot 10-22 to take command of the Chevy Autobots.<br />
<br />
Ultimately, Mainframe's Arctic headquarters was discovered, and he deployed his general [[Maelstrom]] against the Autobots as a last line of defense. As the Autobots continued to attack, Mainframe sacrificed a large portion of his spark energy to heal his general. But this move backfired, as Maelstrom was defeated and the Autobots entered the base to fight a now-weakened Mainframe. By using strategy against the Decepticon, the Autobots finally defeated Mainframe, freeing Bumblebee, Flash, Ridge and Sphinx.<br />

==Trivia==<br />
* Mainframe's backstory conflicts with the events as described in other pre-movie fictions, as it has Megatron functional a mere two centuries back, when elsewhere he's been frozen on Earth for a ''lot'' longer than that. Of course, the whole online game story kind of can't ''really'' happen in the normal movie timeframe anyway...<br />
