[[Meltdown (Animated)|Meltdown]]'s greatest dream is to create the organic equivalent of a Transformer; a human that can take on any form it desires. To that end, he attempted to manipulate two adult humans genetically (the bat-like one happened to be his lawyer). Sadly, the experiments failed, and he was left with a pair of hideously mutated beings which may be as powerful as any one of [[Optimus Prime (Animated)|Prime]]'s Autobots, but fall short of the glory for which Meltdown was aiming. They now act in a similar capacity as [[Colossus Rhodes]], playing the role of loyal enforcers/bodyguards.

Meltdown created the pair on [[Dinobot Island (Animated)|Dinobot Island]], and while he planned a similar experiment on [[Sari Sumdac]], he left [[Prowl (Animated)|Prowl]] and [[Carmine Fanzone|Fanzone]] to battle the mutants. The pair managed to hold their own and escape, capturing Meltdown in the process. The fusion creatures and Rhodes tracked them down, but were soundly walloped by the [[Dinobot (Animated)|Dinobots]]. {{storylink|Survival of the Fittest}}

Later, Meltdown used the pair to keep Optimus and [[Grimlock (Animated)|Grimlock]] occupied while he experimented on [[Blackarachnia (Animated)|Blackarachnia]]. Unfortunately for him, Grimlock was much more powerful than either of the two mutations and coupled with the appearance of [[Swoop (Animated)|Swoop]] and [[Snarl (Animated)|Snarl the fight ended early, causing the mutants to run away in terror. {{storylink|Black Friday (episode)|Black Friday}}

==Notes==
* The fusion creatures are modeled after the [[Pretender]]s [[Bomb-Burst (G1)|Bomb-Burst]] and [[Submarauder (G1)|Submarauder]].

* The creatures' [[character model]]s were designed by ''The Batman''/''Ben 10'' character designer [[Thomas Perkins]], with tweaking and cleanup by [[Derrick J. Wyatt]].

* In their [[Survival of the Fittest|first appearance]], they are about the size of [[Carmine Fanzone|Captain Fanzone]] and [[Prowl (Animated)|Prowl]]. By their [[Black Friday (episode)|second]], they have grown to the size of [[Optimus Prime (Animated)|Optimus Prime]] and [[Grimlock (Animated)|Grimlock]].

* According to ''[[Transformers Animated: The AllSpark Almanac|The AllSpark Almanac]]'', the shark-like creature (nicknamed "[[Seafood Louis]]") was Black's stockbroker.
