'''Onslaught''' is what you'd call the "hands-off" type. He doesn't enjoy getting his mits dirty, but instead prefers the thrill of designing battle plans, strategies, and tactics, and then watching his [[Combaticon]] soldiers carry them out. While he typically crafts his strategies to exclude his direct involvement, Onslaught is no coward. When required, he will engage in battle with strength, cunning and earthquaking fury. This darker, more brutish side of Onslaught might lead some [[Decepticon]]s into thinking he has a secret blood-lust stashed away in his circuits. But truth be told, he's really just ticked off that his plans didn't work out the way they were supposed to.

Onslaught can combine with his fellow Combaticons to form [[Bruticus (G1)|Bruticus]], who is considerably dumber than Onslaught.

===''Generation 1''===
===Marvel Comics continuity===

''Events from Marvel UK are in italics.''

Onslaught is the leader of the Combaticons, ''one of the [[Special Teams]] foretold by the Matrix''. It is assumed he was constructed on Earth, but this is contradicted by ''Generation 2'' which hinted that Onslaught is the creator of the Cybertronian [[Mindset]]. Whichever the case may be, Onslaught and his team were first seen on Earth in the ''[[Afterdeath!]]'' story, where Onslaught fought and lost to the Protectobots inside the Multi-World computer game.

''Later on, he led his team to kill [[Galvatron]] while he was trapped in a volcano, and Onslaught was the only Combaticon not taken down by [[Ladies' Night|a trio of human women]]. He would've killed them if the Throttlebots hadn't shown up as the cavalry. In response for that humiliation'', Onslaught and the Combaticons hunted the Throttlebots down. The [[Throttlebots]] were trapped in a used car lot and the Combaticons were forced to bid for them in an auction against RAAT and the Protectobots, but Onslaught cut through this by trying to have the lot's owner assassinated. RAAT would get the Throttlebots and the Combaticons were beaten by [[Blaster]].

Onslaught's shining moment came when [[Totaled!|he got to lead a massed Decepticon assault on the Autobots]], which came close to wiping them all out.

He was not seen again until the Generation 2 comic, implying he had been killed in the [[Underbase]] conflict and later resurrected. At the death of [[Mindset]], a Cybertronian light years away, Onslaught was briefly overcome by pain, hinting of a genetic connection between these two. However, he was offlined along with the entire Combaticon team by [[Starscream]] and this was never delved into. It is unknown if he was killed or later repaired.

''In the post-movie alternate timeline, he is still active in 2008 and was one of [[Soundwave]]'s lieutenants when the [[Quintessons]] invaded.''

===Animated continuity===
:''Voice actor:'' [[S. Marc Jordan]], [[Steve Bulin]] (English), [[Yutaka Shimaka]] (Japanese)

[[Image:Onslaught.jpg|left|thumb|200px|My strategy is brilliant, dammit!]]

Onslaught was one of several [[Renegade Decepticon]]s who had been imprisoned in the [[Decepticon Detention Center]] on [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]] for plotting against [[Megatron (G1)|Megatron]]. After [[Starscream (G1)|Starscream]] was booted from the [[Decepticon space cruiser|Decepticon base]] for attempting to overthrow Megatron (again), he decided to form his own army. Travelling to Cybertron via the [[Space Bridge]], he "liberated" renegade [[personality component]]s and placed them in [[human]] military vehicles left over from [[Earth]]'s second World War. At first, the newly-dubbed 'Combaticons' were hardly grateful to Starscream for their freedom until the Decepticon air commander revealed he had predicted their treachery and thus did not equip them with vital energy absorbers. Onslaught and his fellow Combaticons worked agreed to work with Starscream to overthrow Megatron on the promise of being given the vital components. Onslaught worked in capturing two [[Autobot]]s, though he got into an argument with [[Vortex]] over who was responsible for the act. Later, while recharging at a power station, Starscream's brigade was confronted by the Decepticons under Megatron's command. Anticipating that [[Devastator (G1)|Devastator]] might come into play, Starscream ordered Onslaught and the other Combaticons to merge into the dim-witted [[Bruticus (G1)|Bruticus]]. The Combaticon combiner managed to soundly defeat Devastator, but was in turn defeated by a surprise attack by [[Menasor (G1)|Menasor]]. For their treachery, Megatron banished Onslaught, his comrades and Starscream in space on a desolate asteroid. {{Storylink|Starscream's Brigade}}

After a falling out with Starscream, Onslaught became the mastermind of [[Operation Revenge]] and helped defeat [[Shockwave (G1)|Shockwave]]'s forces on Cybertron. He also used his external backpack and altered the Space Bridge to send Earth into the sun. It didn't work as he was defeated by the allied Decepticons and Autobots. Then Megatron had the Combaticons, including Onslaught, reprogrammed to serve him. Poor guy, can't seem to get a break. {{Storylink|The Revenge of Bruticus}}

After that little lobotomy, the Combaticons were deployed to Earth's Middle East to assist in Megatron's scheme to steal military jets, rebuild them into cars, drive them out of the owners nations, and then rebuild them back into drone jets in friendly territory. Yeah. Onslaught and the other Combaticons attacked the [[Aerialbot]]s when they snooped around, managing to force [[Slingshot]] to crash into a cave (YAY!). Later, Onslaught and the ground-based Combaticons form an anti-aircraft screen against an Aerialbot attack on [[Giant Purple Griffin|the Fortress]], then merged into Bruticus, but was rather quickly defeated by [[Superion]] before being blown away by the exploding oil wells. {{Storylink|Aerial Assault}}

Back in the [[United States]], Onslaught led the Combaticons in driving down the road of a random city for no apparent reason until they were confronted by [[Defensor (G1)|Defensor]]. Though the Combaticons formed Bruticus, they were blown to pieces by a single shot from the Autobot, with [[Swindle (G1)|Swindle]] being the only survivor. Swindle later sold the parts of his comrades, but were forced to buy them back for Megatron's next Crazy Scheme. The Combaticons formed Bruticus to operate the orbital disruptor cannon, but was shot by the cannon itself when [[B.O.T. (robot)|B.O.T.]] tampered with it. {{Storylink|B.O.T. (episode)}}

===Dreamwave continuity===

Onslaught unleashed his considerable firepower against the Autobots during the Decepticon assault against [[Iacon]]. He managed to escape from the disaster instigated by Starscream only to be imprisioned millions of years later by [[Shockwave]] along with his fellow Combaticons. That is at least until Starscream freed them.

When [[Sunstorm (G1)|Sunstorm]] appeared on Earth, the battered Combaticons were ordered by Starscream to combine into Bruticus and deal with the crazed zealot. It did not end well.

[[Image:G1DW_SkyLynx_defeats_Combaticons.jpg|right|thumb|200px|Don't look him in the eye Onslaught!]]

The repaired Combaticons were brought to the Guadalcanal where they could hone their somewhat lackluster combat skills and listen to Starscream's long-winded aspirations of glory. Starscream orders them to defeat the magnificent Autobot [[Sky Lynx (G1)|Sky Lynx]] as a means to train themselves for greater battles. Unfortunately, the Combaticons do not fare well when the crafty Autobot splits into his two forms, with Onslaught nearly crushed by the Lynx's right paw as he was issuing orders. After Starscream deactivates Sky Lynx, Onslaught berated his team as buffons for not paying attention to his battle plan.

[[Image:Onslaught_G1DW_routeofallevil.jpg|left|thumb|200px|Well, isn't he a bossy one...]]

This was the least of their troubles, however, as [[Predaking]] showed up as soon after Sky Lynx shut down. Onslaught ordered his men to keep moving and maintain formation so as to remain as smaller, faster targets, then as they neared Predaking, formed Bruticus. This encounter also did not end well either.... {{Storylink|The Route of All Evil}}

: Onslaught transforms into a dark blue mobile anti-aircraft truck of made-up origin, armed with a large double-barrelled cannon mounted on the flatbed of his vehicle mode. He can also assume a base/gun emplacement mode with a ramp that smaller Combaticons can use. This base mode can be connected to both the Autobot city [[Metroplex]] (a feature not mentioned in either toy's instructions, for obvious reasons) and to the Decepticon city [[Trypticon]], a feature only documented in Trypticon's instructions.

: In robot mode, Onslaught is armed with a long olive laser rifle and is accessorized by a small chest plate. He forms the central body component of Bruticus, protected by an even larger silver chest plate and Bruticus' head. He also comes with Bruticus' hands and feet.

: The complete set of Combaticons were re-released in the European-market "[[Classics (Euro)|Classics]]" line in 1990; these releases typically has the [[rubsign]] indent removed from the molding. However, Onslaught interestingly has his indent intact, and the indent remains even in more recent reuses of the mold.

: This mold was redecoed as ''[[Operation Combination]]'' [[Great Cannon]], ''[[Robots in Disguise (franchise)|Robots in Disguise]]'' [[Mega-Octane]], and ''[[Universe]]'' Mega-Octane.

The sticks on the back of his truck proudly state that he is indeed Onslaught. In this form he was reputedly "one meta-morphin' dude-icus."

:''The Commandos are a [[Decepticon]] subgroup in the [[Robots in Disguise (franchise)|Robots in Disguise]] [[continuity family]].''

The '''Commandos''' are an elite group of Decepticon warriors. Formerly [[Autobot]] [[protoform]]s corrupted by the dark energies of [[Megatron (RID)|Megatron]]'s [[spark]], they now fight for evil. The five members can also combine to form the behemoth [[Ruination]].

The Commandos are...

* [[Mega-Octane]] the cannon-truck and leader

[[Image:Mega-octanerid.jpg|thumb|right|250px|"What's your problem, [[Movor|Ed?]]"]]

'''Mega-Octane''' is the cool-headed commander of the [[Commando]]s. He orders his troops into battle with militaristic stoicism, as if they were his own limbs, but actually spends more of his time keeping the hot-headed [[Scourge (RID)|Scourge]] in check. Scourge claims to be leader of the small Decepticon faction, but in reality it is Mega-Octane who holds the group together. But all great bots have their personal quirks -- he is not satisfied unless he takes his bath before everyone else.

He merges with the other Commandos to form [[Ruination]], who he completely controls.

Mega-Octane is one of the many Decepticons under the command of [[Unicron]] in the ''[[Universe]]'' conflict, though at this time it is unknown if it is the "original" Mega-Octane or an alternate-universe incarnation.

*'''Mega-Octane''' (Deluxe, 2000/2001)
**''Japanese ID number'': '''D-010'''

[[Image:RID_Dolrailer_MegaOctane_toys.jpg|thumb|right|200px|"One Of These Just Doesn't Belong..."]]

: A [[retool]] of the ''[[Generation 1]]'' [[Onslaught]] toy, Mega-Octane transforms into a flatbed truck and trailer with a twin-barreled cannon. The twin-barreled cannon has a hole to store his large rifle in vehicle/base mode as well as his retooled ramp (which can also be held in his hand as a shield) in robot or combined mode (This hole was actually added for Generation 2 Onslaught to hold his missile launcher). As the toy uses the [[Scramble City]] style of connection, he can form the torso to any combination of similar robots, though naturally he is normally the torso to the combined robot [[Ruination]]. He also came with the combiner [[kibble]] to Ruination.

: He was first released as part of the [[Takara]] ''Car Robots'' line in 2000. In 2001, [[Hasbro]] released the toy as part of the ''Robots in Disguise'' series. There are several very noteworthy differences between the two. The Takara version uses a very light olive-green base plastic, mustard-gold plastic for the robot chest, cannons and combiner kibble, plus the black-and-gold camouflage is sometimes done as metallic decals, one of which has the "Anti-Cybertron" symbol on it. The Hasbro version uses a much darker green plastic, silver-gray chest/cannon/kibble plastic, muddy-tan-and-black camo (in the same pattern), uses no decals (leaving those areas blank), and has a Decepticon insignia on the truck roof. Additionally, Hasbro shortened the length of Mega-Octane's rifle, and all subsequent releases of this toy from Hasbro or Takara/[[Sonokong]] used this version of the tooling.

: This mold was also used to make [[Great Cannon]].

*'''Valdigus''' (Multi-pack, 2000)
**''Japanese ID number'': '''D-011'''

: In Japan, Mega-Octane/Dolrailer was also made available as part of a compete team multi-pack with his teammates [[Armorhide (RID)|Armorhide]], [[Movor]], [[Rollbar (RID)|Rollbar]] and [[Ro-Tor (RID)|Ro-Tor]]. All toys were identical to their individual Japanese releases, but the set only came with a bio card for the combined form.

*'''Ruination''' (Ultra, 2003)

[[Image:RID_MegaOctane_Urbancamo_toy.jpg|thumb|left|150px|"Boombox and Spinners Not Included"]]

: The entire Commando team was redecoed in various shades of gray with "urban camo" patterns as part of a Wal-Mart [[exclusive]] gift set, oddly released well after the end of the ''Robots in Disguise'' line. Movor was also slightly [[retool]]ed, blunting his nosecone significantly.

{{-}}
===Universe===
*'''Ruination''' (Ultra, 2004)

: The entire Ruination team was redecoed ''again'' to make ''another'' Wal-Mart exclusive set (why?), this time with a unified "desert camo" theme under the ''[[Universe]]'' banner. It came out at the same time as five ''other'' Wal-Mart ''Transformers'' exclusives, which lead to a glut. Ruination seemed a particularly slow mover in this batch.
