:''Scattershot is an [[Autobot]] from the [[Generation 1 (franchise)|Generation 1]] [[continuity family]]. He is sometimes known as '''Scattorshot'''.''

[[Image:DWMTMTE Scattershot.jpg|right|300px|thumb|"I'm smart. Now hold still while I shoot you."]]
'''Scattershot''' needs no desktop generals or academy-trained slag skimmers to tell him how to fight. He just wades into a [[Decepticon Patrol|Decepticon patrol]] and doesn't come out until he's broken all his crayons and scribbled all over the mazes he couldn't solve. Then he puts down the coloring books and does the same thing to a hostile Decepticon force, only with guns and [[acid pellet]]s instead of crayons. That's what he calls "strategy". Though Scattershot forms the main body of the giant [[Computron (G1)|Computron]], if his own mind holds any fragment of the thoughtful titan's slow, considered approach, he hides it very well.

[[Grimlock (G1)|Grimlock]] would certainly like his style, and even the tin-plated bucketheads that think he's a blustering buffoon must admit that Scattershot is uniquely tough, the sort that [[Rollbar (G1)|Rollbar]] would say "broke the mold he was poured in". He won't stop fighting until he's utterly spent, down to his last microjoule of energy and drop of [[energon]]. He expects no less from the [[Technobot (G1)|Technobots]] under his command.

==Fiction==
===Marvel Comics continuity===
Scattershot was one of the Autobots who left [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]] aboard the ''[[Steelhaven]]'' in order to start a new life away from war (and perhaps from tin-plated bucketheads). But the Decepticons followed them to their new home on [[Nebulos]]. Scattershot and the other Technobots repelled a Terrorcon attack on the resort city [[Splendora]] before all of the Transformers left Nebulos. {{storylink|Love and Steel!}}

The Terrorcons later lamented Scattershot's demise as he and the other Technobots were killed by [[Starscream (G1)|Starscream]] upon arriving in [[Buenos Aires]]. Stopping the [[Underbase]] was one puzzle Scattershot could not solve. {{storylink|Dark Star}}

====Marvel UK future timelines====
''In 2008, when [[Hot Rod (G1)|Rodimus Prime]] learned that [[Unicron]] was reconstructing himself on the planet of [[Junkion (planet)|Junk]], he took a shuttle with Scattershot, [[Smokescreen (G1)|Smokescreen]], and the [[Dinobot (G1)|Dinobots]] to bring a stop to it. While Prime and the Dinobots took the low road to wade through Unicron's mind-controlled [[Junkion (species)|Junkion]] followers, Scattershot and Smokescreen stayed on the shuttle, taking pot-shots at Unicron's giant head while avoiding his annihilating eye beams. {{storylink|The Legacy of Unicron!}} Some months later, Scattershot joined [[Ultra Magnus (G1)|Ultra Magnus]] in responding to a Decepticon rescue call, and soon began fighting right alongside [[Soundwave (G1)|Soundwave]]'s forces against a marauding army of [[Quintesson|Quintessons]]. Despite bonding in the course of battle, Soundwave reluctantly refused Magnus's suggestion of peace, as too much had happened between the two factions over the millennia. As the Decepticons departed, Scattershot remarked that Soundwave was probably right, and Ultra Magnus called that the true tragedy.'' {{storylink|Space Pirates!}}

[[Image:ScattershotKillsRoadBusterUkAnnual88.jpg|thumb|left|225px|And so, the "Tastes great! Less filling!" argument reaches its inevitable conclusion.]]
''In another timeline, the war between the Autobots and the Decepticons came to a close in 2510, when [[Springer (G1)|Springer]]'s [[Wrecker|Wreckers]] took down the last Decepticon outpost. One Decepticon still survived, however: [[Triton]], a deep-cover spy working inside the Autobots. When Rodimus Prime announced his retirement and plan to give over the [[Matrix of Leadership|Matrix]] to Springer, Triton spoke out against the idea, dividing the Autobots on whether Springer or Ultra Magnus should be the next leader. Scattershot and the Technobots sided with Magnus, while the Wreckers remained loyal to Springer. The next sequence of events was inevitable: [[Whirl (G1)|Whirl]] shoved Triton, Triton punched Whirl, [[Roadbuster (G1)|Roadbuster]] threatened to kill Triton, but Scattershot fired first, claiming the first casualty of the new Autobot Civil War.'' {{storylink|Peace}}

===Cartoon continuity===
[[Image:ScattershotGrimNewBrain.jpg|right|200px|thumb|He can only hit things flying over him.]]
:''Voice actor:'' [[Stephen Keener]] (English), [[Minoru Inaba]] (Japanese), [[Hans-Rainer Müller]] (German, ''Grimlocks New Brain'' & ''The Return of Optimus Prime, Part 1''), [[Peter Musäus]] (German, ''Money is Everything''), [[Thomas Rau]] (German, ''The Rebirth, Part 1'')

To counter the threat of the [[Terrorcon (G1)|Terrorcons]], an accidentally super-intelligent [[Grimlock (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Grimlock]] built Scattershot and the other Technobots out of parts from [[Unicron]]'s brain. Scattershot was appointed leader of the new team by his own creator, a fact that did not sit well with him initially, but the Dinobot leader replied that he and his team mates were perfectly capable of fulfilling their task. As the Technobots rushed into battle against their counterparts, Scattershot shattered the [[anti-electron]] source that [[Cyclonus (G1)|Cyclonus]] and [[Scourge (G1)|Scourge]] had stolen for [[Galvatron (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Galvatron]], thwarting the Decepticon's plans. When the Terrorcons merged into [[Abominus (G1)|Abominus]], Scattershot and his team were forced to pull back seeking for Grimlock's advice. It was then when the Dinobot leader revealed to the group that he also had given them the ability to merge into the gestalt [[Computron (G1)|Computron]]. After receiving Grimlock's super-intelligence (the process leaving him in his original mental state), Computron was successful in defeating Abominus by forcing him to separate into his individual Terrorcon components, and Galvatron was left with no choice but to call his minions for a retreat. {{storylink|Grimlock's New Brain}}

Later stationed in [[Autobot City]] on [[Earth]], the Technobots helped [[Earth Defense Command|EDC]] captain [[Marissa Faireborn]] track down a [[Quintesson]] base within the solar system, with the help (and occasional hindrance) of the smuggler [[Dirk Manus]]. {{storylink|Money Is Everything}}

Scattershot was manning the radar screen at Autobot City months later, when he made out about a 100 "blips" heading right for them. His keen Technobot intelligence interpreted these blips to be <s>the 1987 Decepticon toy shipment</s> a full scale attack. During the assault, he used his rarely seen third mode to take potshots at the Decepticons from the ground before joining them in the skies for up close and personal combat. {{storylink|The Rebirth, Part 1}}

====''The Great Transformer War'' comic====
The Technobots, upgraded with the help of the human scientist Doctor [[Dalton (G1)|Dalton]], faced off against the Terrorcon [[Abominus (G1)|Abominus]], but it was a trap set by [[Galvatron (G1)|Galvatron]]. Forcing Abominus to split into his components, the individual Terrorcons spat a mind-controlling substance at Computron. Before Galvatron could get far with his new warrior, [[Spike Witwicky (G1)|Spike Witwicky]] came to the Technobots’ rescue in an [[exosuit]], firing a beam into Computron’s eyes that removed the mind-controlling effect. {{storylink|The Great Transformer War issue 2|The Great Transformer War #2}}

====''The Headmasters'' cartoon====
:''Voice actor:'' [[Masashi Ebara]] (Japanese)

In 2011, Galvatron staged a major attack on Cybertron. Scattershot and the Technobots joined the Dinobots on the front lines of defense. {{storylink|Four Warriors Come out of the Sky}} As [[Hot Rod (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Hot Rod]] began his search for the [[Matrix of Leadership]] on Earth, [[Ultra Magnus (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Ultra Magnus]] gathered Scattershot and the Technobots to prevent the Decepticons from hampering his quest. When Hot Rod finally located the Matrix, [[Galvatron (G1)|Galvatron]] confronted him with the Decepticon [[Headmaster (technology)|Headmasters]] and Terrorcons, but the Technobots arrived to help even the odds. Scattershot ordered them to form Computron, and the mighty giant occupied the Decepticons so that Hot Rod could make a break for the [[space bridge|Space Bridge]]. {{storylink|Birth of the Fantastic Double Prime}}

Later, Galvatron launched [[Metamorphose]], a metal-twisting meteorite, and the [[Aerialbot (G1)|Aerialbots]] were its first victims. Scattershot and the Technobots were sent out to recover their damaged comrades for repairs, but they were intercepted by the Terrorcons. The fighting escalated with new arrivals on both sides, as the Decepticons tried to keep their foes occupied until the meteorite reached [[Athenia]], destroying the Autobots completely. The [[Fortress Maximus (G1)|Battleship Maximus]] eventually arrived to carry the Headmasters into space to confront the meteorite, and so Scattershot and the Technobots formed Computron and covered their retreat. {{storylink|Approach of the Demon Meteorite}}

Scattershot was on Earth with Ultra Magnus, attending to the [[Sixshot|shadowy robot]]'s threat to steal all of Japan's energy. {{storylink|Terror! The Six Shadows}} The two of them also studied the mysterious seismic activity which led to a volcano erupting near the [[Peru|Peruvian]] city of [[Pan]]. Maybe [[Lightspeed (G1 Technobot)|Lightspeed]] and [[Nosecone (G1)|Nosecone]] finally nagged Scattershot into taking an interest in science. {{storylink|The Dormant Volcano Mysteriously Erupts}} When [[buridanka|a giant carnivorous plant]] took root in [[San Francisco]], Ultra Magnus sent Scattershot and the Technobots to deal with the incident. The plant proved to be extraordinarily resilient, however, and it was also guarded by the Decepticons. The Technobots were distracted by combat with the [[Stunticon (G1)|Stunticons]], first as individuals and later combined as Computron and [[Menasor (G1)|Menasor]]. {{storylink|Head On!! Fortress Maximus}} After the [[Trainbot]]s ran into trouble on [[Mars (planet)|Mars]], Scattershot and his team were on the way to help when [[Sixshot]] and [[Trypticon (G1)|Trypticon]] intervened. The Earthbound Decepticons succeeded in occupying the Technobots so that they couldn't make it to Mars. {{storylink|Explosion on Mars!! Maximus Is in Danger}}

Scattershot and the Technobots were part of a strike team that flew to the [[Moon (moon)|moon]] to disrupt Scorponok's gathering of Decepticons. They immediately formed Computron upon entering the battle. {{storylink|Return of the Immortal Emperor}} Scattershot's regiment later helped load the Trainbots with energon supplies for the destitute planet [[Sandra (planet)|Sandra]]. They were attacked by the greedy Decepticons and fought back both as the mighty Computron and as individuals, using the Trainbots' large vehicle modes as a shield. {{storylink|SOS from Planet Sandra}}

The Technobots accompanied Fortress on his quest to prevent the Decepticons from stealing energy elsewhere in the galaxy. During this extended mission, Scattershot and his teammates formed Computron to battle [[Predaking]] on the planet [[Paradise]]. {{storylink|Head Formation of Friendship}}

After returning to Earth, Scattershot and the Technobots reassociated with Ultra Magnus at Autobot City on Earth. They were sent to [[Miami]] to counter a Decepticon attack, and battled Abominus as Computron. Unfortunately, the attack was a ruse to draw them away from Autobot City, and they were unable to stop Sixshot's assassination of Ultra Magnus. {{storylink|Ultra Magnus Dies!!}} The Decepticon attacks continued even after Magnus's death, as Sixshot launched five separate strikes at once around the world. Scattershot and the Technobots were dispatched as Computron to one of the many battle sites. {{storylink|The Emperor of Destruction Vanishes on an Iceberg}} Later, Scattershot informed Fortress that the Decepticons were attacking the [[Kamchatka Peninsula]], in the [[Pacific Ring of Fire]]. {{storylink|I Risk My Life for Earth}}

When the Decepticons seemingly abandoned Earth, Scattershot and the Technobots assisted Spike in rebuilding the planet after the enemy's departure. On one occasion, they located Sixshot's old command base. By combining into Computron, the Technobots helped Defensor and Raiden obliterate the base, wiping out all trace of the Decepticons' presence. {{storylink|Miraculous Warriors, Targetmasters (Part 1)}}

As part of Computron, Scattershot participated in the Autobots final battle with Scorponok's Decepticons at the North Pole. He lent his energies to the Headmasters' [[Head Formation]] to revitalize Fortress Maximus at the critical moment. {{storylink|The Final Showdown on Earth (Part 2)}}

===IDW comics continuity===
Scattershot was second in command of the science vessel [[Calabi-Yau]], working under [[Jetfire (G1)|Jetfire]]. It was during this period that their ship encountered the rare [[Ultra-Energon]] on the abandoned [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]]. In contrast to his usual action-oriented style, it was Scattershot who was the voice of caution on the mission to investigate. It was advice that should have been heeded as the team was attacked by [[Bludgeon (G1)|Bludgeon]]'s rogue Decepticons. Scattershot himself was impaled by [[Bomb-Burst (G1)|Bomb-Burst]] during the attack. {{storylink|Stormbringer issue 1|Stormbringer #1}} Like the other Technobots, Scattershot was in the process of being cannibalized for parts when a recovery team arrived. {{storylink|Stormbringer issue 2|Stormbringer #2}} In a desperate battle against the super-powerful [[Thunderwing (G1)|Thunderwing]], it was the Technobots' brains that saved the day, by uncovering the clues to defeat the juggernaut. Scattershot remained on Cybertron to further investigate. {{storylink|Stormbringer issue 4|Stormbringer #4}}

Some time later, Scattershot and the other Technobots were at least temporarily assigned to assist Jetfire in understanding the mysteries of [[Monstructor (G1)|Monstructor]] and his [[Combiner|gestalt technology]]. This research was conducted at the Autobot penal facility at [[Garrus-9]], under the command of warden [[Fortress Maximus (G1)|Fortress Maximus]]. When the Decepticons attacked to retrieve [[Pretender Monster|Monstructor's components]], several of the Technobots were heavily damaged in the fighting. {{storylink|Spotlight: Arcee}}

Years later, Scattershot was present in a medical facility on a restored Cybertron. {{storylink|Stick Together}}

*'''Scattershot''' (Technobot leader, 1987/1988)
**''Team ID number:'' '''TK5'''
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''C-86'''
**''Accessories'': "Acid pellet gun", 2 "artillery guns", Computron head, left & right Computron fists, Computron chestplate/base, 2 Computron foot-plates

: Scattershot transforms into a big, red and white space cruiser with a gi-normous cannon, and has a secondary stationary-cannon mode. In any mode, pressing the gray button splits his nosecone open down the middle, revealing a spring-loaded non-firing cannon-barrel. Mis-transforming Scattershot into robot mode results in Hilarious Cannon-Related Improprieties™. His rubsign is also hilariously placed in robot mode. One known [[Hasbro]] variant from 1988 has no rubsign indent... that's probably for the best.

:He forms the central body of the giant robot Computron, combining with [[Lightspeed (G1 Technobot)|Lightspeed]], [[Nosecone (G1)|Nosecone]], [[Afterburner (G1)|Afterburner]] and [[Strafe (G1)|Strafe]] in the [[Scramble City (toyline)|Scramble City]]-style manner. He was available both separately and in a gift set with the other four Technobots.

==Notes==
[[Image:Scattershotback.jpg|right|150px|thumb|And I'll thank you not to stare.]]
* Apparently, the guy who made Scattershot's animation models never saw the actual toy. Due to the isometric view of his front model sheet, the front of his vehicle mode is drawn behind his left shoulder. The back model takes this literally, placing the nose between his chest and left arm. The model also gives him a third, upside-down shoulder where the nose should be. Afterburner's character model suffers a similar ailment. This model was seemingly only used in the [[AKOM]]-animated episodes "[[Grimlock's New Brain]]" and "[[The Rebirth]]"—in "[[Money Is Everything]]", Scattershot's back is drawn to match his toy. It is incorrect again throughout the entirety of the Headmasters series, unfortunately.

* Scattershot is the only [[Scramble City (toyline)|Scramble City]]-style leader who assumes his "third mode" in the animated series. Once in "Grimlock's New Brain" and again in "[[The Rebirth, Part 1]]". Not only that, but in "The Rebirth", he drives ''while still transformed''.
* Scattershot's weapon/power that he would have been capable of doing in Transformers Animated has been revealed to be some Science or Computer Power (http://www.formspring.me/DerrickJWyatt/q/378290541718169494)

:''Hacksaw is an [[Autobot]] [[Mini-Con]] from the [[Transformers: Classics|Classics]] portion of the [[Generation 1 (franchise)|Generation 1]] [[continuity family]].''

[[Image:TheNewWorld Hacksaw.JPG|right|250px|thumb|Teh leet Hacksaw.]]

Leader of the mighty Mini-Con [[Dinobot (Classics)|Dinobots]], '''Hacksaw'''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s ''Stegosaurus'' form belies his true nature—although he's just as tough and strong as the pea-brained beast, he's a good deal smarter. His occasional lapses into [[Grimlock (G1)|Grimlock]]-style grammar mask his wisdom, but his colleagues know that he's a stoic leader and a loyal friend. He ''is'' still a Dinobot, though... which means he's not above fighting dirty, especially with his arm-mounted battle-ax.

{{bigquote|If you cannot take risks, if you cannot sacrifice... then you are not strong. And you will never be strong.|—Hacksaw to [[Broadside (Classics)|Broadside]]|"[[The New World]]"}}

==Fiction==
===''Classics''===
One of the Mini-Cons created by the [[Last Autobot]] to rebuild [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]], Hacksaw served as [[Modus Prime]]'s second-in-command. He often led his Dinobots in missions to the planet's [[Underworld]], where they battled packs of marauding [[Mutant (G1)|mutants]]. On one such mission, they encountered his friend [[Broadside (Classics)|Broadside]] and the [[Predator Attack Team]]. During their brief encounter, Hacksaw had to prevent [[Terrorsaur (Classics)|Terrorsaur]] from getting into a scrap with [[Overbite (Classics)|Overbite]].

Later, [[Knockdown (Classics)|Knockdown]] informed Hacksaw of a suspicious conversation he'd overheard Broadside having with some shady characters at [[Maccadam's Old Oil House]]. Armed with that knowledge, he went to see Modus Prime at an energon plant—only for the plant to explode just as he arrived. The explosion, which Broadside claimed had been caused by a deranged Autobot [[bulk]], killed a number of Mini-Cons, including Modus Prime, making Hacksaw the new Mini-Con leader. His first command as leader was to inspect the bulk's body, only to find that it had been destroyed by [[Wideload (Classics)|Wideload]] and [[Sledge (Classics)|Sledge]], whom Knockdown had seen in Maccadam's with Broadside.

Knockdown called the [[Clear Skies Team]] and the [[Night Rescue Team]] to a meeting with his Dinobots, where [[Strongarm (Classics)|Strongarm]] presented evidence that indicated that the incident had been planned. As the Autobot Mini-Cons bickered over how to best act on their suspicions, Hacksaw departed alone to investigate a disruption at [[Proximax]]'s [[trans-hyperwave caster tower]]. Up on the tower's scaffolding, he found [[Oil Slick (Classics)|Oil Slick]] and [[Dirt Rocket (Classics)|Dirt Rocket]] tinkering with the tower's systems. After a brief altercation with them, he was ambushed by their partner [[Grindor (Classics)|Grindor]]. In the brutal battle that followed, Hacksaw was stabbed repeatedly by Oil Slick, but still managed to incapacitate all three of his opponents brutally. As he tried to ply Dirt Rocket for information, he was confronted by their employer—Broadside.

Broadside explained that he had ordered his underlings to send a warning to the Autobots to stay away from Cybertron, in order to prevent the Last Autobot, who had given them life, from returning and reclaiming that life. Hacksaw angrily disagreed with his claims, and the two began to battle. As they fought, Broadside explained how he had uncovered the [[datatrax]] of the fallen [[Decepticon]] leader [[Scorponok (G1)|Scorponok]], and how he planned to emulate him in uniting the Mini-Cons against the bulks. Crazed, he struck a mighty blow against Hacksaw, sending him toppling over the shattered edge of the scaffolding. Broadside grabbed the Dinobot's arm, and pleaded with him to join him in his crusade to make their people strong. His eyes full of pity for his former friend, Hacksaw told the Decepticon that he would never be strong. Broadside relaxed his grip, and Hacksaw plummeted silently to his death.

Broadside tried to blame Hacksaw's death on "unknown assailants", but a recording of his final moments revealed Broadside's ruse, opening up a schism in Cybertron's Mini-Con population and sending them plunging into a civil war. {{storylink|The New World}}

==Notes==
* Hacksaw was designed by [[David Willis]].
* HackSaw's weapon that he could have been given IF he appeared in Transformers Animated is a spinning saw blade made of Stego Scales (http://www.formspring.me/DerrickJWyatt/q/378290541718169494)
