{{disambig2|the 2018 toyline|the 2005 toyline|Star Wars Transformers (2005)}}
'''''Star Wars/Transformers''''' (スター・ウォーズ/トランスフォーマー) is a [[TakaraTomy]] crossover toyline between ''[[Star Wars (franchise)|Star Wars]]'' and ''Transformers'' that began in 2018 and features ''Star Wars'' vehicles transforming into [[mech]]s based on ''Star Wars'' characters. It follows in the footsteps of the earlier ''[[Star Wars Transformers (2005)|Star Wars Transformers]]'' line by [[Hasbro]], but features higher price points and more detailed figures.

In [[Primax 1086.0 Kappa]], [[Nebulos]] had succeeded at turning away the [[Transformer]]s. But, decades later, the ambitious [[Council of Peers|Peer]] [[Zarak (G1)|Mortilus Zarak]] retrieved the bodies left behind by the invaders at the [[Arvassian Range]] and took them to the [[Grax Communications Facility]]. Through the science of [[Hi-Test (G1)|Hi-Test]] and [[Vorath]], the remains of [[Fortress Maximus (G1)|Fortress Maximus]] and [[Scorponok (G1)|Scorponok]] were melded into a single body and Zarak [[binary bonding|binary-bonded]] to it. The interaction with Fortress and Scorponok's selves drove Zarak mad and "Zarak Maximus" went on a rampage that was only stopped when he realized he could have killed his daughter, [[Llyra]], and his grandson, [[Olin Zarak|Olin]]. He fled the planet and met the [[Violengiguar|Bio Ranger Iga]], who convinced Zarak Maximus that the [[Micromaster]]s at [[Micro|Zone]]'s [[Micropolis]] had [[Zodiac]] [[energon]] that could help with his mental stability. Zarak Maximus attacked the city, only to be driven away, although he was still allied with Iga afterwards, becoming the first of the [[Thirteen Great Demon Generals]]. {{storylink|Ask Vector Prime#Facebook|Ask Vector Prime, 2015/06/11}}

Transformers GT

2021-10-25T13:38:33Z

MK2stomperX:

{{disambig2|the fictional race|the franchise|Transformers GT: Mission GT-R (franchise)}}

Over the course of their long war, the [[Autobot]]s and [[Decepticon]]s came to develop a mutual respect for each other, and eventually the fighting was replaced by the friendly competition known as the '''Transformers GT''' (トランスフォーマーGT). This competition is an annual racing series inspired by the humans' {{w|Super GT}}, found by the Transformers to require both speed as well as strength of the body and mind. The Transformers GT has attracted faction leaders from many different eras, who have scanned racing car modes and dubbed themselves [[GT Transformer]]s.

Participants make use of both robot and vehicle modes, but have a time limit on how long they're allowed to stay in robot mode; exceeding it means instant disqualification. Other than that, rules are few, and racers are outright expected to engage in combat during races. Each race features an [[energon]] storage device at the goal, accumulating energy as the race goes on, with half of this energy being awarded to the winner. The other half is collected in a stock known as the "Goal Energon", which at the end of the year is awarded to the GT Transformer with the most victories under their belt that season. The amount of energy in this pool is so great that whoever wins the season becomes the most powerful GT Transformer alive.

The Transformers GT also serves to strengthen the Transformers' coexistence with [[human]]ity by having humans in the audience and organizing various promotional events with the [[GT Sister]]s.<ref>[http://takaratomymall.jp/special/tfgt/settings.html TFGT Story Setting at TakaraTomy's ''Transformers GT'' site]</ref> The races are overseen by [[Safety Prime]] and his GT Sister, [[Ai (GT)|Ai]].

==Fiction==
===''Story of Transformers GT''===
The 19th Transformers GT started with a bang when as soon as the green light hit, [[Optimus Prime (G1)|GT-R Prime]] in the pole position was attacked and knocked aside by [[Star Saber (G1)|GT-R Saber]], who took the lead. {{storylink|First Fast Attack! –Whoever Strikes First Wins–}} In round 3, [[Megatron (G1)|GT-R Megatron]] started blasting other racers with his [[EX. Cannon]] while chasing after Prime. {{storylink|One Shot and One Kill!! –Finishing Blow–}} [[Fortress Maximus (G1)|GT-R Maximus]] didn't appreciate Megatron's violent ways and decided to teach him a lesson before the race was over. {{storylink|A Biggest Sword! –The Last Resort–}}

===''Transformers GT: Mission GT-R'' story pages===
During round 3 of one Transformers GT, GT-R Megatron arrived on the scene and announced his intent to defeat all other racers. {{storylink|Transformers GT: Mission GT-R (story page)|GT-R Megatron Attacks!}} When the contestants were on their final lap, the race was suddenly interrupted by the arrival of [[Unicron/Generation 1|Unicron]], who devoured the Goal Energon and targeted the racers next. GT-R Maximus opposed him, but even his [[Master Jack Sword]] wasn't enough to claim victory. {{storylink|Transformers GT: Mission GT-R (story page)|Bringing Down the Sword}} The world, and by extension the race, was saved when the GT Transformers teamed up with each other and their GT Sisters to defeat Unicron. {{storylink|Transformers GT: Mission GT-R (story page)|The True TFGT}}

Menonia

2021-10-15T22:48:06Z

MK2stomperX:

[[File:G1 Menonia.JPG|upright=1.67|thumb|Been spendin' most our lives livin' in a madman's paradise.]]
The realm of '''Menonia''' is accessed by a [[Quintesson]] transport device hidden on [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]]. It seems likely that Menonia in fact exists in an alternate dimension, and whether the name "Menonia" refers to the dimension as a whole or merely one world within it is unclear.

Menonia's technology is the equivalent of Earth's Middle Ages. However, [[magic]] is much more prevalent.

Known inhabitants include:

*[[Human]]s
*[[Dragon]]s: The wizard known as the [[Golden One]] can take dragon or human form.
*"Birdpeople": Humanoids with the wings, feet and heads of birds.
*"Tree-centaurs": Strange creatures that seemed part centaur and part Ent.
*"Wood-bots": [[Mara-Al-Utha]], the Red Wizard, employed wooden servants that looked like [[generic]] Transformers (a hint of his Quintessonian nature). It is unknown if they were animated by technology or magic.
*"Reptile-birds": a small dragon/pterodactyl-like creature called [[Groyle]] served the Red Wizard.

==Fiction==
===Generation 1 cartoon continuity===
====''The Transformers'' cartoon====
[[File:Madman's Paradise Red Wizard Golden One.jpg|left|upright=1.1|thumb|"Have you seen my gold goblet? ... It's on my what?"]]
During the time in which the Quintessons ruled Cybertron, a number of criminals were banished to other dimensions. Mara-Al-Utha, a practitioner of the forbidden art of sorcery, was sent to Menonia. At that time, Menonia was ruled over by the powerful sorcerer known as the [[Golden One]], who took Mara-Al-Utha under his wing as a student. The Quintesson was greedy and, employing the magic he had learned, blasted the Golden One into a cave, blocking the entrance with a huge boulder. In the Golden One's absence, Mara-Al-Utha took control of the kingdom and assumed the name "Red Wizard".

Mara-Al-Utha ruled "ages beyond counting", enslaving the inhabitants of the kingdom and punishing dissidents severely. As well as using other races to control the population, he built the wood-bots as servants. Despite the Red Wizard's long and punishing rule, the Golden One's allies continued to rebel against their slavery and mounted unsuccessful attacks on the castle.

When [[Daniel Witwicky (G1)|Daniel Witwicky]] and [[Grimlock (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Grimlock]] visited Menonia, the rebel forces were massing for a final, decisive attack on the Red Wizard's castle. The Red Wizard was able to trick Grimlock into helping to defend the castle walls against the attackers.

[[File:Madman's Paradise Birdpeople.jpg|upright=1.1|thumb|DIIIIIIVE!]]
During the attack on the castle, more [[Autobot]]s, tracking down Daniel Witwicky, via [[Steeljaw (G1)|Steeljaw]], arrived to find Grimlock and helped to reinforce the castle defences. It soon became clear to them that the Red Wizard was not what he appeared to be. Meanwhile, Daniel and the [[Golden One's pupil]] had been freed, and they in turn had located and freed the Golden One, with the help of [[Ramhorn (G1)|Ramhorn]]. Weakened by his imprisonment, the Golden One had a difficult time fighting the Red Wizard, revealed finally in his true form as Mara-Al-Utha. The Autobot [[Blaster (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Blaster]] was able to provide amplification to allow the Golden One's spells to be heard, and Mara-Al-Utha was swiftly defeated.

With Menonia once again under the rule of the Golden One, the Autobots returned through the portal. {{storylink|Madman's Paradise}}

====''Alternity''====
{{storylink|Alternation}}

{{locationstub}}

===''Animated'' cartoon===
Menonia was part of the [[Quintesson Pan Galactic Co-Prosperity Sphere]] in the [[Milky Way]]. {{storylink|Transformers Animated: The Complete AllSpark Almanac|The Complete AllSpark Almanac}} [[Swindle (Animated)|Swindle]] picked up a case of [[Menonian super glue|powerful super glue]] from Menonia, which he used to patch up [[Lugnut (Animated)|Lugnut]] after [[Blitzwing (Animated)|Hothead Blitzwing]] shattered him with some [[glass gas]]. However, the joke was on Lugnut and Blitzwing, since Swindle was arming both Decepticons and stoking their overblown arms race/rivalry. {{storylink|The Arrival issue 5|Everything Must Go}}

===''King Grimlock''===

The land of Menonia was a realm governed by the forces of magic. Centuries past, Optimus Prime visited the land and helped install the [[Golden One]] as its ruler. When time turned the Golden One into a despot, the desperate resistance used their last of their magic to reach out across dimensions to try and bring Prime back but instead succeeded in getting [[Grimlock (G1)|Grimlock]]. Though the resistance pointed out that they needed the Golden One's magic to return Grimlock home, this had no effect on the Dinotbot leader. Observing the Dinobot stalking off, the Golden One was convinced his reign would be unchallenged while [[Arko]] ran off to try and win the Dinobot to their cause. {{storylink|Grimlock the Rebel}}

Shark Spike

2021-10-01T15:17:42Z

MK2stomperX:

[[File:SkyByteAnime.jpg|upright=1.66|thumb]]

The '''Shark Spike''' is the personal weapon of [[Sky-Byte (RID)|Sky-Byte]]. Mounted on his left arm, it is a powerful spinning claw capable of penetrating the toughest of [[Autobot]] metals, or piercing even the thickest walls of titanium, like a microchip crushed in a shark's mighty jaws.

It is also known as his '''Anchor Arm''' (アンカーアーム ''Ankā Āmu'').

==Fiction==
===2001 ''Robots in Disguise'' cartoon===
Sky-Byte used his Shark Spike to break into a secret room in the [[Payuma ruins]]. {{storylink|The Secret of the Ruins}} After catching up with the reprogrammed [[Tow-Line (RID)|Tow-Line]], Sky-Byte found himself up against [[Optimus Prime (RID)|Optimus Prime]] and employed his Shark Spike during the fight. He used it again several times in the battle that resulted when the [[Autobot]]s eventually freed Tow-Line from the [[Predacon (BW)|Predacon]] mind control. {{storylink|Tow-Line Goes Haywire}} After [[Megatron (RID)|Megatron]] abducted some Autobot [[Protoform]]s, Sky-Byte used his Shark Spike as he and the other Predacons attempted to prevent the Autobots from giving pursuit. {{storylink|The Decepticons}} He used the weapon again during a battle on [[Montrose Island]]. {{storylink|Volcano (episode)|Volcano}}

As part of a plan to capture some Autobots, Sky-Byte intended to use his "anchor arm" to trigger an avalanche to bury his foe, however the plan was never enacted because the Predacons are idiots. {{storylink|Wedge's Short Fuse}} While trying to support the [[CGA Tower]], [[Gas Skunk]] observed that there was still some foundation hampering their efforts, so Sky-Byte took it out with his Shark Spike. [[Wedge (RID)|Wedge]] objected just moments too late that it was a bad idea. {{storylink|Sky-Byte Saves the Day}} He employed the Shark Spike once more during another fight against the Autobots. {{storylink|Power to Burn!}}

It has a gear system that in beast mode spins the fins like a propeller when a wheel in his side is turned. As Sky-Byte's left arm, the Shark Spike forms a spinning claw weapon.

==Notes==
*Though this weapon was most commonly referred to as the "Shark Spike" in the English dub of the ''Robots in Disguise'' cartoon, its Japanese name of "Anchor Arm" cropped up in a few English-language sources, such as the Hasbro toy bio for Sky-Byte's original toy, and in Sky-Byte's profile included on the DVD boxed set of the cartoon's first half that was released by [[Maximum Entertainment]].
*Likewise, Sky-Byte himself refers to his Shark Spike as his "Anchor Arm" at one point in [[Wedge's Short Fuse|Episode 20]] of the cartoon. But, like many other cases of misnamed attacks in the English dub, this was most likely an error.

:''The construction station is an [[Autobot]] [[Micromaster]] base from the [[Generation 1 continuity family|Generation 1]] [[continuity family]].''

[[File:Constructionstation-backofthebox.jpg|upright=1.66|thumb|I'll blow 'em away! HAHAHAHAohgod]]
Communications expert [[Ironworks]], stationed far from the front lines, has a lot of spare time on his hands. He's prone to creating strange bits of structure around his post. Perhaps that same eccentricity explains why his '''construction station''' contains so many diverse and random elements—a crane, a <s>windmill</s> interstellar communicator, an iron forge, and a missile launcher. The station normally functions as a construction site, but can convert to a heavily armed communications tower mode.

It is sometimes known as the '''Ironworks''', perhaps in honour of its commander.

==Fiction==
===''Zone'' cartoon, manga, and story pages===
Upon the creation of the [[Zone Base]], [[Ironworks]] was put in charge of the Construction Station. {{storylink|Fight! Super Robot Lifeform Transformers: Zone (story page)|Zone Part 4}}

When the [[Nine Great Demon Generals|Decepticon Generals]] invaded [[Micro|Zone]], the Construction Station attempted to fend the villains off. It transformed from its construction station form into a massive artillery platform and let the Decepticons have it with volley after volley of completely and utterly pointless firepower. No matter how much firing was done, no actual damage was done to the Decepticons, who managed to make off with a sample of [[Energon Z]]. {{storylink|Fight! Super Robot Lifeform Transformers: Zone (manga)|Transformers: Zone|Zone}} {{storylink|Enter the New Supreme Commander, Dai Atlas!}}

===''Classics''===
[[Image:Invasionprologue-ironworksbase.jpg|right|thumb|250px|Jeez...how big does that make ''Countdown's'' [[Rocket Base|base]] in this timeline?]]

Ironworks (the name referring to the base itself) had become a major Autobot fortress in Oregon. In [[2012]], it became a battleground against evil Autobots from [[Primax -408.24 Epsilon]]. {{storylink|Invasion Prologue}} {{storylink|Invasion (issue)|Invasion}}

===''Wings Universe''===
[[File:HtF-ConstructionStation.jpg|thumb|upright=0.5|left]]
By the year [[2984]], the Construction station was in operation on [[Moon Base Four|Cyberion]]. It was subjected to a test of [[Cybertronian Knight]] [[Flareup (G1)|Flare-Up]]'s homemade explosives. {{storylink|Hoist the Flag}}

* '''Ironworks''' (Micromaster Station, 1989)
** ''Accessories:'' Crane/rocket launcher, crane staging, ramp, rocket

: The construction station was sold in a small boxed package, along with Ironworks. It contains a crane which can rotate and elevate as well as stow a (non-firing) missile, a spinning three-bladed "radar dish", and a basket for Ironworks to stand in when the base is converted to its radar station mode.

: Ramps allow the construction station mode to connect to other Micromaster stations to form larger "city" complexes.

* The construction station, so named on the [[instructions|instruction booklet]], was redubbed '''communications station''' in Dreamwave's ''[[Transformers: More than Meets the Eye|More than Meets the Eye]]'' profile series.
* This and the other three Micromaster Stations were later re-used in [[TakaraTomy|Takara]]'s ''[[Brave (franchise)|Brave]] Police J-Decker'' toyline, omitting the Micromasters and adding a pair of non-transforming PVC mini-figures from the series.

Quantum lock

2016-12-10T16:33:05Z

MK2stomperX:

A '''quantum lock''' is a seal in reality which prevents anyone from time-traveling into or out of a region of spacetime. It nullifies attempts to alter history and can be utilized to safeguard valuable objects. Quantum-locking anything requires extremely advanced knowledge and capabilities of physics.

==Fiction==
===Fun Publications===
When [[The Fallen|Megatronus]], rogue member of the [[Thirteen]], sought the all-powerful [[Star Saber (Prima)|Star Saber]] for his evil cause, his siblings resolved to keep the weapon out of his hands. To this end, [[Solus Prime]] split the Saber into five pieces, with the hilt, the [[Origin Matrix]] being hidden on prehistoric [[Earth]] of [[Primax -408.24 Epsilon]]. [[Vector Prime]] quantum-locked this sector of history to prevent anyone from reaching the Matrix. {{storylink|Ask Vector Prime#Facebook|Ask Vector Prime, 2015/05/18}}

Eons later, however, the lock was weakened when critical universe [[Primax 207.0 Epsilon]] [[Invasion (issue)|was destroyed]], triggering malignant effects across the multiverse. This included bouncing [[Graviton (Classics)|two]] [[Talon (Classics)|starships]] from the unraveling universe into the prehistoric era of Primax -408.24 Epsilon. The [[Transcendent Technomorph]]s of [[Nexus 208.0 Epsilon]] observed this happening and in order to safeguard the multiverse, they recruited morally trustworthy bounty hunter [[Depth Charge (BW)|Depth Charge]] to secure the Matrix. {{storylink|Invasion: Epilogue}}

===''Beast Wars: Uprising''===
The inhabitants of the [[Confederation of Terran Worlds|Human Confederacy]] quantum locked Earth some time prior to the 24th century. Upon learning that [[Blackarachnia (BW)|a dimension hopper]] had precipitated [[Grand Uprising|civil war]] on [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]], [[Confederated Terran Colonial Fleet|CTCF]] officer [[Una]] commented that the Terrans should have also quantum locked Cybertron as with Earth, but her colleague [[Chak]] pointed out the unfeasibility of such a task, citing Cybertron's vastly greater history of higher order life. {{storylink|Intersectionality}}

'''Shatterpoint''' is a highly-trained member of the elite [[Maximal Command Security Force]]. His job is to uphold the will of the [[Maximal Imperium]] on [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]] in the name of the [[Pax Cybertronia]]. His specialty is crowd control, predicting the mob mentality and adjusting battle plans to handle large groups of opponents. He's a crack shot with his positron cannon, which can shut down or even briefly manipulate a target's motor control functions.

Unfortunately, as brilliant as he is in handling large numbers, his logical mind can't quite handle the more unpredictable nature of a single being in one-on-one combat.<ref>Profile in [[Hasbro Transformers Collectors' Club issue 14|''Hasbro Transformers Collectors' Club'' #14]]</ref>

His color scheme is based somewhat loosely on that of [[Deluge (G1)|Generation 1 Deluge]] or [[Drench (G2)|''Generation 2'' Drench]].

'''High Beam''' is a tracker who always means business. He never backs down from a challenge or shirks his responsibilities. Although his fellow Autobots tend to think of him as more of a thinker than a fighter, he'll eagerly engage in a firefight if he feels it is his duty to do so.

'''Overshoot''' is a member of the elite [[Maximal Command Security Force]]. His job is to uphold the will of the [[Maximal Imperium]] on [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]] in the name of the [[Pax Cybertronia]]. Though to be totally honest, he'd much rather be watching movies.

==Fiction==
===''Beast Wars: Uprising''===
Being in the Force meant he was shook down dealers who wouldn't pay up a bribe and menace some losers, and that was considered a cushy job on this dumphole Cybertron! Overshoot ended up guarding an [[Overcharge (G1)|Overcharge]] depot for forty stellar cycles, waiting for his term to run out so he could move to [[Crystal City]]. His paintjob went to pot under the acid rain, he came up with various reasons why Overcharges were called that, and he grew increasingly maudlin about how Cybertron was full of great architecture that was allowed to decay and that they could never make now.

When the [[Grand Uprising]] kicked off, Overshoot was damn grateful he was far away from the war guarding some drones! He just had to make sure they were ready for potentially defending the [[Melpomene Bridge]]. Traumatised true-believer [[Stiletto (BW)|Stiletto]] was sent to join him and they took a while to get on. (She also mentioned Crystal City had been destroyed, much to his horror)

When the Resistance attacked, Overshoot was able to take out three guys and drive off the first wave... only for 96+ to show up. Realizing the Overcharges sucked like ''[[B.O.T. (episode)|B.O.T.]]'', he hit on a plan to overload their engines so they'd blow up and destroy the bridge. He needed, and trusted, Stiletto to fly him to safety before it went boom.

She did! Then, when [[Bighorn]] attacked and almost killed him, she saved him again and Overshoot overheard just what the trauma in her background was. The two trekked on to the nearest city, Overshoot telling new Overcharge jokes to keep her distracted. {{storylink|Burning Bridges}}

{{factions|predacon}}
:''Autostinger is a [[Predacon (BW)|Predacon]] [[Autoroller]] from the [[Beast Era]] of the [[Generation 1 continuity family|Generation 1]] [[continuity family]].''

[[File:bwhandbook1 autostinger robot.jpg|upright=1.66|thumb|It's gonna be clamp this, clamp that. Bada-climp, bada-clamp!]]

The leader of the [[Autoroller]]s, '''Autostinger''' (オートスティンガー ''Ōtosutingā'') is a mercenary by trade and a mercenary by attitude. More opportunistic than bloodthirsty, Autostinger will grant mercy to a foe on the battlefield if it means putting them in his debt; a debt he always intends to collect sooner or later. Ironically, he has recently become the victim of the same honor-bound servitude which he once inflicted upon his enemies. The New [[Emperor of Destruction]] [[Galvatron (BWII)|Galvatron]] spared him from execution, and now the formerly mighty mercenary must work as a construction officer until his debt is repaid.

Like the rest of the Autorollers, Autostinger maintains a rivalry with the [[Insectron]]s. Specifically, he's at odds with [[Bigmos]], another ex-mercenary who became indebted to Autostinger after a particularly messy battlefield encounter.

==Fiction==
===Japanese Generation 1 cartoon continuity===
====''Beast Wars II'' cartoon====
{{voiceactor|[[Tadashi Miyazawa]] (Japanese)}}

Autostinger was leader of the [[Autoroller]]s, a team of mercenaries who worked for the [[Predacon (BW)|Predacons]]. During a crusade on the planet [[Dross]], Stinger and the [[Insectron]] known as [[Bigmos]] were on opposite sides of the conflict. Autostinger got the drop on Bigmos, but recognized that he was another mercenary and not beholden to the fight at hand. Instead of killing him, Autostinger let Bigmos go free, and even lied to his comrades to cover Bigmos's escape. {{storylink|Autorollers Roll Out!}} Autostinger and the Autorollers had further encounters with the Insectrons, deepening the rivalry between the groups. Autostinger came to hate [[Scissor Boy]] during this time, as their philosophies clashed. {{storylink|Danger! Scissor Boy}}

Some time later, Autostinger and his cohorts were aboard the ''[[Galvaburg II]]'' when [[Galvatron (BWII)|Galvatron]] came to the planet [[Gaea (planet)|Gaea]]. They assumed vehicular modes based on scans from the super-computer found in the planet's ruins. {{storylink|White Lion, Run!}} They were sent to construct a Predacon base near an isolated lake, secretly a trap to capture any unwary Maximal. {{storylink|The Lake Trap}} Autostinger and [[Autocrasher]] also did the grunt work for [[Dirge (BWII)|Dirge]] and [[Thrust (BWII)|Thrust]] clearing the area for a genuine Predacon base on the [[South America|South Continent]]. {{storylink|The Insect Corps Arrive}}

When the [[Combatron (BWII)|Combatron]]s failed to remove the Insectron colonists from the South Continent or trick them into eliminating the Maximals, Autostinger finally stepped forward and told [[Megastorm]] that his team would take responsibility for that mission. Megastorm accepted, and so Autostinger and [[Autojetter]] made contact with Bigmos. Stinger reminded Bigmos of the debt he owed him from long ago, encouraging Bigmos (and, by extension, all the Insectrons) to step aside during the Predacon conflict with the Maximals.

The Autorollers engaged the Maximals on several occasions with Bigmos remaining neutral, but the Insectron commander eventually obeyed his conscience and stepped in. He saved Autostinger from a barrage fired by [[Lio Convoy]], and announced that this ended the debt between them. He offered Autostinger and his comrades the opportunity to go free, but firmly stated that any who threatened the Insectrons' lands would be treated as enemies. Autostinger would not abandon the Predacons, and so Autostinger and Bigmos engaged in a duel to resolve their conflict. Their duel was interrupted by the Combatrons' attempting to collapse a mountain on the cave where they battled, and the fighting was put aside so that all parties could escape. The Autorollers and Insectrons departed amicably at the end of the day, but acknowledged they would meet again in battle as enemies. {{storylink|Autorollers Roll Out!}}

The Autorollers made another assault on the Insectrons, and captured an unwary [[Scissor Boy]]. In a complicated series of escapades, they also captured [[Tasmania Kid]] and tried to force the Maximals to lead them to the Insectrons' lair. Boy and Kid actually planned to lead them into an ambush by the Maximals, but the unknowing [[Drill Nuts]] and [[Powerhug (BWII)|Powerhug]] started a landslide early to rescue their friends, and the diversion ended up leading the Autorollers in a circle back to the ''Galvaburg II''. Megastorm was initially pleased by Autostinger and his cohorts' accomplishment, but then the united Maximals and Insectrons arrived at the ship while the Combatrons were out on patrol. Megastorm was forced to abandon his position and take the ''Galvaburg II'' to the air before being overrun by enemies. {{storylink|Danger! Scissor Boy}}
[[File:Autorollers group shot.jpg|upright=1.66|left|thumb|[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OFHmVYD0jSg ''Dorbees''<br>''Rollin' to an' fro I see Dorbees''<br>''Why don't they just go away'']]]
After their last few failures, Megastorm put the Autorollers back on fortress construction duty. Although [[Autocrasher]] appreciated the work, Autojetter felt slighted and wanted to show he was the most fearsome Predacon of all. Autostinger was moved by Autojetter's passion, and they came up with a plan to reroute the Angolmois they were digging for to create an eruption that would destroy the Insectrons' lands in the name of the Predacons. A crazed Galvatron upset their plans, drilling into the Angolmois pipelines to disturb the flow, and the Autorollers ended up joining forces with [[Scuba]] and the Maximals to bring down the rampaging Galvatron with an overdose of Angolmois energy. After the battle, the Maximals and Autorollers parted peacefully. {{storylink|Galvatron Rampages}}

The Autorollers continued to work on Megastorm's behalf, devastating much of the South Continent in their efforts to build an Angolmois powered fortress. {{storylink|Predacon General Offensive!}}

Autocrasher and Autostinger accompanied Dirge and Thrust to the [[Eurasia|East Continent]] to establish a new front-line base. During construction, they spotted a signal beam firing up from the ground, and pinpointed the Maximal base. The Autorollers helped Dirge and Thrust secure the Maximal ship for Galvatron. Dirge and Thrust penetrated the ship while Autocrasher and Autostinger remained outside, ready to blow the fuel cache with their missiles if the Maximals tried anything. However, the comedy duo had difficulty keeping the manic and cheerful [[Jointron]]s in line, even at gunpoint. Inside the ship turned into an oil party while Dirge and Thrust waited for [[Diver (BWII)|Diver]] to fix the radio [[Gimlet]] busted, so they could contact the ''Galvaburg II''. [[DJ (BWII)|DJ]] later brought oil outside to the growingly impatient Autocrasher and Autostinger, distracting them long enough for [[Lio Convoy]] and Bighorn to return from patrol and disable the Autorollers. Then [[Tripledacus]] happened and, well...running time! {{storylink|The Festive Jointrons}}

At one of their construction sites on the East Continent, Autostinger and the Autorollers were joined by Starscream and BB, who intended to capture the Jointrons for study. Most of the Autorollers got involved in this side mission, but the Combatrons failed to separate the Jointrons for long. The might of Tripledacus soon drove off the Predacons and their fortress site was destroyed. {{storylink|Who Is the Leader!?}} While excavating some ancient ruins back on the [[North America|North Continent]], Autostinger and his team found an old [[Copy Machine]] which they brought back to Galvatron. Hijinks ensued. {{storylink|The Black Lio Convoy}}

When [[Artemis]] and [[Moon (BWII)|Moon]] hosted a debate over who the strongest warriors were among the Transformers, Galvatron compared his troops, the Autorollers, to the Maximal allies, the Insectrons. {{storylink|Who Is the Strongest Warrior!?}}

The Angolmois energy on Gaea grew violent due to the approach of the artificial planet, [[Nemesis (BWII)|Nemesis]]. This upset the fortress construction projects by Autostinger and the Autorollers, making the ground highly unstable from Angolmois geysers. {{storylink|Enter Lio Junior}} Still, the Autorollers continued gathering massive amount of Angolmois energy through their drilling sites. When a squad of Maximals raided one of the Angolmois facilities, Galvatron set a trap for them. He had the Autorollers lure the Maximals inside the base and then sealed it shut. He then called down a massive blast from Nemesis in space to annihilate his foes. {{storylink|Gigastorm's Treachery}}

After Dirge and Thrust failed...spectacularly...at making a big name for themselves by assassinating Lio Convoy, Gigastorm had the Autorollers recover their unconscious bodies for an upgrade. {{storylink|The Lio Convoy Assassination Plot}}

[[File:Bwhandbook1 autolauncher robot.jpg|upright=1.66|thumb|I got your "ultimate frisbee" right here, bitch.]]

'''Autolauncher''' (オートランチャー ''Ōtoranchā'') exists in a state of perpetual eagerness. He's eager to fight, he's eager to retreat, he's eager to do menial labor, he's eager to nap. Autolauncher yearns to be the first at everything and will often rush ahead of his [[Autoroller]] comrades so he can engage the enemy before anybody else. This frustrates his teammates to no end, particularly [[Autostinger]], but there's a silver lining. Autolauncher's hurry to run blindly into action with disks a-spinning makes him a wonderful distraction, permitting the other Autorollers to attack in a more discreet manner.

If Autolauncher is eager about ''anything'', however, it's his burning desire to go one-on-one with his [[Insectron]] rival: [[Mantis]]. Both he and Mantis are students of the art known as [[Discmaster]] and Autolauncher wants nothing more than to prove he's the best. Where Mantis controls his discs with telekinetic precision mid-flight, Autolauncher's technique is to launch as many disks as possible, as quickly as possible and hope for the best.

Autolauncher and the other Autorollers were aboard the ''[[Galvaburg II]]'' when [[Galvatron (BWII)|Galvatron]] came to the planet [[Gaea (planet)|Gaea]]. They assumed vehicular modes based on scans from the super-computer found in the planet's ruins. {{storylink|White Lion, Run!}} They were sent to construct a Predacon base near an isolated lake, secretly a trap to capture any unwary Maximal. {{storylink|The Lake Trap}}

After the [[Combatron (BWII)|Combatron]]s failed to eliminate the [[Insectron]]s or get them to turn on the Maximals, Autostinger volunteered his team to take up the job. [[Megastorm]] accepted, and so the Autorollers rolled out. Autostinger and Autojetter went to [[Bigmos]] of the Insectrons to cash in on an old debt while Autolauncher and Autocrasher... went somewhere else? {{storylink|Autorollers Roll Out!}}

After several failures that Autolauncher technically wasn't even a part of, Megastorm put the Autorollers back on fortress construction duty. Although [[Autocrasher]] appreciated the work, [[Autojetter]] felt slighted and wanted to show he was the most fearsome Predacon of all. Autostinger was moved by Autojetter's passion, and they came up with a plan to reroute the Angolmois they were digging for to create an eruption that would destroy the Insectrons' lands in the name of the Predacons. A crazed Galvatron upset their plans, drilling into the Angolmois pipelines to disturb the flow, and the Autorollers ended up joining forces with [[Scuba]] and the Maximals to bring down the rampaging Galvatron with an overdose of Angolmois energy. After the battle, the Maximals and Autorollers parted peacefully. {{storylink|Galvatron Rampages}}

The Autorollers continued to work on Megastorm's behalf, devastating much of the South Continent in their efforts to build an Angolmois powered fortress. {{storylink|Predacon General Offensive!}}

At one of their construction sites on the [[Eurasia|East Continent]], Autolauncher and the Autorollers were joined by Starscream and BB, who intended to capture the [[Jointron]]s for study. Most of the Autorollers got involved in the side mission, but Autolauncher it seemed wisely stayed out of the melee. {{storylink|Who Is the Leader!?}} While excavating some ancient ruins back on the [[North America|North Continent]], Autolauncher and his team found an old [[Copy Machine]] which they brought back to Galvatron.

When [[Artemis]] and [[Moon (BWII)|Moon]] hosted a debate over who the strongest warriors were among the Transformers, Galvatron compared his troops, the Autorollers, to the Maximal allies, the Insectrons. {{storylink|Who Is the Strongest Warrior!?}}

The Autorollers continued gathering massive amount of Angolmois energy through their drilling sites. When a squad of Maximals raided one of the Angolmois facilities, Galvatron set a trap for them. He had the Autorollers lure the Maximals inside the base and then sealed it shut.

: Autolauncher transforms into an armored personnel carrier. He has a disc-launcher in his front end/robot chest that is activated by the front wheels, with a switch to allow him to roll without firing. He also has a small hand-held spring-loaded missile launcher that stores in his trunk. Like [[Autojetter]], he has a three-setting switch that changes how the toy reacts to being rolled on a smooth surface. In the center setting, it rolls free in whichever mode it’s in. The other two activate the toy’s auto-transforming gimmick; with the switch to the left, the toy transforms from robot to APC when rolled forward (and back when rolled in reverse), while the right position transforms him from APC to robot when rolled forward (and back when in reverse).

[[File:Bwhandbook1 autocrasher robot.jpg|upright=1.66|thumb|Nothing says prehistoric robots like a dude with a buzz saw!]]

'''Autocrasher''' is proof that age and experience don't always lead to wisdom. The oldest of the [[Autoroller]]s, Autocrasher has fought the most battles and crushed the most enemies beneath his treads, and all with the same airtight strategy: Brute force. Autocrasher prefers to plow through his foes like a juggernaut and considering he's lived longer than most Predacons, one can't really argue against his game plan.

Like all the Autorollers, Autocrasher is rivals with an opposite among the [[Insectron]]s. In his case, it's [[Powerhug (BWII)|Powerhug]], another big bruiser who fancies himself as an immovable object. The two are always eager to match strength, though Autocrasher has a few more years on Powerhug as a bulldozing brute, which tends to give him the edge.

==Fiction==
===''Beast Wars II'' cartoon===
{{voiceactor|[[Hitoshi Bifu]] (Japanese)}}

While operating as a mercenary with the Autorollers, Autocrasher encountered the [[Insectron]]s and formed a rivalry with them. In particular, he came to hate [[Powerhug (BWII)|Powerhug]], another hulking brute, and the two became wrestling enemies. {{storylink|Danger! Scissor Boy}}

Autocrasher and the other [[Autoroller]]s were aboard the ''[[Galvaburg II]]'' when [[Galvatron (BWII)|Galvatron]] came to the planet [[Gaea (planet)|Gaea]]. They assumed vehicular modes based on scans from the super-computer found in the planet's ruins. {{storylink|White Lion, Run!}} They were sent to construct a Predacon base near an isolated lake, secretly a trap to capture any unwary Maximal. {{storylink|The Lake Trap}} [[Autostinger]] and Autocrasher also did the grunt work for [[Dirge (BWII)|Dirge]] and [[Thrust (BWII)|Thrust]] clearing the area for a genuine Predacon base on the Southern continent. {{storylink|The Insect Corps Arrive}}

After the [[Combatron (BWII)|Combatron]]s failed to eliminate the [[Insectron]]s or get them to turn on the Maximals, Autostinger volunteered his team to take up the job. [[Megastorm]] accepted, and so the Autorollers rolled out. Autostinger and Autojetter went to [[Bigmos]] of the Insectrons to cash in on an old debt while Autolauncher and Autocrasher... went somewhere else? {{storylink|Autorollers Roll Out!}}

The Autorollers made another assault on the Insectrons, and captured an unwary [[Scissor Boy]]. In a complicated series of escapades, they also captured [[Tasmania Kid]] and tried to force the Maximals to lead them to the Insectrons' lair. Boy and Kid actually planned to lead them into an ambush by the Maximals, but the unknowing [[Drill Nuts]] and [[Powerhug (BWII)|Powerhug]] started a landslide early to rescue their friends, and the diversion ended up leading the Autorollers in a circle back to the ''Galvaburg II''. Megastorm was initially pleased by Autostinger and his cohorts' accomplishment, but then the united Maximals and Insectrons arrived at the ship while the Combatrons were out on patrol. Megastorm was forced to abandon his position and take the ''Galvaburg II'' to the air before being overrun by enemies. {{storylink|Danger! Scissor Boy}}

After their last few failures, Megastorm put the Autorollers back on fortress construction duty. Although Autocrasher appreciated the work, [[Autojetter]] felt slighted and wanted to show he was the most fearsome Predacon of all. Autostinger was moved by Autojetter's passion, and they came up with a plan to reroute the Angolmois they were digging for to create an eruption that would destroy the Insectrons' lands in the name of the Predacons. A crazed Galvatron upset their plans, drilling into the Angolmois pipelines to disturb the flow, and the Autorollers ended up joining forces with [[Scuba]] and the Maximals to bring down the rampaging Galvatron with an overdose of Angolmois energy.

The Autorollers continued to work on Megastorm's behalf, devastating much of the South Continent in their efforts to build an Angolmois powered fortress. {{storylink|Predacon General Offensive!}}

Autocrasher and Autostinger accompanied Dirge and Thrust to the [[Eurasia|East Continent]] to establish a new front-line base. During construction, they spotted a signal beam firing up from the ground, and pinpointed the Maximal base. The Autorollers helped Dirge and Thrust secure the Maximal ship for Galvatron. Dirge and Thrust penetrated the ship while Autocrasher and Autostinger remained outside, ready to blow the fuel cache with their missiles if the Maximals tried anything. However, the comedy duo had difficulty keeping the manic and cheerful [[Jointron]]s in line, even at gunpoint. Inside the ship turned into an oil party while Dirge and Thrust waited for [[Diver (BWII)|Diver]] to fix the radio [[Gimlet]] busted, so they could contact the ''Galvaburg II''. [[DJ (BWII)|DJ]] later brought oil outside to the growingly impatient Autocrasher and Autostinger, distracting them long enough for [[Lio Convoy]] and Bighorn to return from patrol and disable the Autorollers. Then [[Tripledacus]] happened and, well...running time! {{storylink|The Festive Jointrons}}

At one of their construction sites on the East Continent, Autocrasher and the Autorollers were joined by Starscream and BB, who intended to capture the Jointrons for study. Most of the Autorollers got involved in this side mission, but the Combatrons failed to separate the Jointrons for long. The might of Tripledacus soon drove off the Predacons and their fortress site was destroyed. {{storylink|Who Is the Leader!?}} While excavating some ancient ruins back on the [[North America|North Continent]], Autocrasher and his team found an old [[Copy Machine]] which they brought back to Galvatron. Hijinks ensued. {{storylink|The Black Lio Convoy}}

When [[Artemis]] and [[Moon (BWII)|Moon]] hosted a debate over who the strongest warriors were among the Transformers, Galvatron compared his troops, the Autorollers, to the Maximal allies, the Insectrons. {{storylink|Who Is the Strongest Warrior!?}}

The Angolmois energy on Gaea grew violent due to the approach of the artificial planet, [[Nemesis (BWII)|Nemesis]]. This upset the fortress construction projects by Autocrasher and the Autorollers, making the ground highly unstable from Angolmois geysers. {{storylink|Enter Lio Junior}} Still, the Autorollers continued gathering massive amount of Angolmois energy through their drilling sites. When a squad of Maximals raided one of the Angolmois facilities, Galvatron set a trap for them. He had the Autorollers lure the Maximals inside the base and then sealed it shut. He then called down a massive blast from Nemesis in space to annihilate his foes. {{storylink|Gigastorm's Treachery}}

After Dirge and Thrust failed...spectacularly...at making a big name for themselves by assassinating Lio Convoy, Gigastorm had the Autorollers recover their unconscious bodies for an upgrade. {{storylink|The Lio Convoy Assassination Plot}}

When an alien device called the [[teleport gate]] crash-landed on Gaea, the Predacons quickly took control of it. Autocrasher and the other Autorollers were stationed on guard duty outside the ship, and were nearly crushed when the behemoth [[Majin Zarak]] arrived through the portal. He then joined Galvatron and the other Predacons on Majin Zarak's aircraft carrier mode, launching the [[Cyborg Beast]]s into battle. Autocrasher joined the battle shortly afterward, but was repelled by the Maximal forces. {{storylink|Lio Convoy in Imminent Danger!}}

[[File:Bwhandbook1 autojetter robot.jpg|upright=1.66|thumb|"Losing a finger is disgusting. Losing a whole hand is funny." -John Cleese]]

'''Autojetter''' (オートジェッター ''Ōtojettā'') is the youngest of the Autorollers, which of course means he's the most brash and undisciplined of the lot. Autojetter will follow orders out of respect for [[Autostinger]], but he'd much rather be shooting first and asking questions... well, ''never'' really. Bodyguard duty, his most common assignment, bores him to tears and he'll often ditch his charges in favor of looking for trouble wherever he can find it. Needless to say, he's a dropout when it comes to escort missions.

Autojetter maintains rivalries with the [[Insectron]]s [[Tonbot]] and [[Drill Nuts]], though his justifications for the stewing hatred are tenuous at best. When it comes to Tonbot, he hates him because dragonflies often clog up his jet intakes, and Tonbot turns into a dragonfly so ''of course''. As for Drill Nuts, that guy is a total ''dweeb'' and Autojetter can't stand those, either.

==Fiction==

{{voiceactor|[[Kōhei Kowada]] (Japanese)}}

While operating as a mercenary with the Autorollers, Autojetter encountered the [[Insectron]]s and formed a rivalry with them. In particular, he came to hate [[Drill Nuts]] for his gloomy and intellectual personality. {{storylink|Danger! Scissor Boy}}

Autojetter and the other Autorollers were aboard the ''[[Galvaburg II]]'' when [[Galvatron (BWII)|Galvatron]] came to the planet [[Gaea (planet)|Gaea]]. They assumed vehicular modes based on scans from the super-computer found in the planet's ruins. {{storylink|White Lion, Run!}} They were sent to work on a Predacon base near an isolated lake, secretly a trap to capture any unwary Maximal. {{storylink|The Lake Trap}}

When the [[Combatron (BWII)|Combatron]]s failed to remove the [[Insectron]] colonists from the [[South America|South Continent]] or trick them into eliminating the Maximals, [[Autostinger]] finally stepped forward and told [[Megastorm]] that his team would take responsibility for that mission. Megastorm accepted, and so Autostinger and Autojetter made contact with [[Bigmos]]. Autostinger called in an old debt to make Bigmos and the Insectrons stand down and allow the Autorollers to eliminate the Maximals without interference.

Autostinger's gambit eventually failed when Bigmos leapt into the midst of a firefight to save Autostinger from [[Lio Convoy]]'s missiles, ending the debt between them. He then ordered the Autorollers off the Insectrons' land, or else they would be enemies. Autojetter served as Autostinger's second in a duel with Bigmos, fighting [[Tonbot]] on the sidelines. Their duel was interrupted by the Combatrons' attempting to collapse a mountain on the cave where they battled, and the fighting was put aside so that all parties could escape. The Autorollers and Insectrons departed amicably at the end of the day, but acknowledged they would meet again in battle as enemies. {{storylink|Autorollers Roll Out!}}

The Autorollers made another assault on the Insectrons, and captured an unwary [[Scissor Boy]]. In a complicated series of escapades, they also captured [[Tasmania Kid]] and tried to force the Maximals to lead them to the Insectrons' lair. Boy and Kid actually planned to lead them into an ambush by the Maximals, but the unknowing [[Drill Nuts]] and [[Powerhug (BWII)|Powerhug]] started a landslide early to rescue their friends, and the diversion ended up leading the Autorollers in a circle back to the ''Galvaburg II''. Megastorm was initially pleased by Autojetter and his cohorts' accomplishment, but then the united Maximals and Insectrons arrived at the ship while the Combatrons were out on patrol. Megastorm was forced to abandon his position and take the ''Galvaburg II'' to the air before being overrun by enemies. {{storylink|Danger! Scissor Boy}}

After their last few failures, Megastorm put the Autorollers back on fortress construction duty. Although Autocrasher appreciated the work, Autojetter felt slighted and wanted to show he was the most fearsome Predacon of all. Autostinger was moved by Autojetter's passion, and they came up with a plan to reroute the Angolmois they were digging for to create an eruption that would destroy the Insectrons' lands in the name of the Predacons.

The Autorollers' plot was uncovered by Scuba, but Autojetter got the drop on him. He was delighted to hear Scuba talking aloud to himself about how the Autorollers were the most dangerous enemy on Gaea, and Scuba took advantage of his error to appeal to their egos while being held hostage. A crazed Galvatron upset everyone's plans, drilling into the Angolmois pipelines to disturb the flow, and the Autorollers ended up joining forces with Scuba and the Maximals to bring down the rampaging Galvatron with an overdose of Angolmois energy. After the battle, the Maximals and Autorollers parted peacefully after Autojetter got Scuba to compliment them one last time. {{storylink|Galvatron Rampages}}

The Autorollers continued to work on Megastorm's behalf, devastating much of the South Continent in their efforts to build an Angolmois powered fortress. {{storylink|Predacon General Offensive!}}

At one of their construction sites on the [[Eurasia|East Continent]], Autojetter and the Autorollers were joined by Starscream and BB, who intended to capture the [[Jointron]]s for study. Most of the Autorollers got involved in this side mission, but the Combatrons failed to separate the Jointrons for long. The might of [[Tripledacus]] soon drove off the Predacons and their fortress site was destroyed. {{storylink|Who Is the Leader!?}}

When [[Artemis]] and [[Moon (BWII)|Moon]] hosted a debate over who the strongest warriors were among the Transformers, Galvatron compared his troops, the Autorollers, to the Maximal allies, the Insectrons. {{storylink|Who Is the Strongest Warrior!?}}

The Angolmois energy on Gaea grew violent due to the approach of the artificial planet, [[Nemesis (BWII)|Nemesis]]. This upset the fortress construction projects by Autojetter and the Autorollers, making the ground highly unstable from Angolmois geysers. {{storylink|Enter Lio Junior}} Still, the Autorollers continued gathering massive amount of Angolmois energy through their drilling sites. When a squad of Maximals raided one of the Angolmois facilities, Galvatron set a trap for them. He had the Autorollers lure the Maximals inside the base and then sealed it shut. He then called down a massive blast from Nemesis in space to annihilate his foes. {{storylink|Gigastorm's Treachery}}

When an alien device called the [[teleport gate]] crash-landed on Gaea, the Predacons quickly took control of it, summoning the behemoth [[Majin Zarak]]. Autojetter joined Galvatron and the other Predacons on Majin Zarak's aircraft carrier mode, and was deployed to battle the Maximal forces alongside the other Autorollers. He was quickly repelled by their firepower. {{storylink|Lio Convoy in Imminent Danger!}}

As Nemesis approached the Earth, Autojetter and the Autorollers continued building new fortresses to gather the planet's energy for the Predacons. {{storylink|Knock Out Nemesis}} Lio Junior was able to sniff out their Angolmois-concentrating plants, however, bringing their construction projects under fire. {{storylink|Lio Junior's Revolt!?}} After [[Hellscream]] and [[Max-B]] located the Maximals' missile base in the [[Rocky Mountains|Rock Mountains]], Galvatron dispatched the Autorollers to help destroy the project. They were opposed by the [[Jointron]]s and [[Tripledacus]]. {{storylink|Fly Out! Planet Gaea}}

Autojetter and the Autorollers were last seen manning the Predacon engineering fortresses on Gaea when the artificial planet Nemesis began actively siphoning the world's energy into itself. {{storylink|Breaking into Nemesis}}

[[Grimlock (G1)/Marvel Comics continuity|Grimlock]] used [[Dinobot (G1)|Dinobot]] schematics to form Autojetter's structural components, {{storylink|Hasbro Transformers Collectors' Club issue 51|Scylla's profile in Club magazine #51}} and tampered with Autojetter's nano-structure, in an attempt to create a better breed of soldier. {{storylink|Hasbro Transformers Collectors' Club issue 51|Autojetter's profile in Club magazine #51}} Autojetter was one of three Autobots stored in [[stasis pod]]s aboard the ''[[Graviton (Classics)|Graviton]]''. The stasis pods were lost overboard when the ship crashed over prehistoric [[Earth]] in an [[Primax -408.24 Epsilon|alternate universe]], and the trio were converted into Decepticons by [[Megatron (G1)/Marvel Comics continuity|Megatron]]. They attacked [[Ultra Magnus (G1)|Ultra Magnus]] and his team, however the arrival of [[Depth Charge (BW)|Depth Charge]] turned the tide of the battle as he blasted the three new Decepticons. {{storylink|Shattered Expectations (BWSG)|Shattered Expectations}}

The Decepticons pursued the Autobots to a chasm, where they watched Megatron take on Ultra Magnus and be defeated. They climbed to the bottom of the chasm to retrieve their fallen leader and found a giant face hewn into the rock. It cheered Megatron up immensely once they dug him out of the rubble. {{storylink|Shattered Paths}} Within the cavern they'd located, Autojetter and the others watched Megatron utilize the ancient equipment. They got the opportunity to fight the Autobots, now calling themselves Maximals, again and Autojetter managed to secure the Maximals' energy purifier. {{storylink|Shattered Hope}} The Predacons including Autojetter accompanied Megatron as he used the giant mech he'd built to try and claim the matrix the Maximals had found. {{storylink|Shattered Balance}} They battled the Maximals once more, until they were all sucked into a dimensional rift thanks to Ultra Mammoth. {{storylink|Shattered Destiny}}

==Toys==

*'''Autojetter''' (Deluxe, 1998)
**''Japanese ID number'': '''D-19'''
**''Accessories'': 6 missiles

: Autojetter transforms into an [[Wikipedia:F/A-18|F/A-18 fighter jet]] with a trio of pressure-launch missiles in each wing (activated by a sliding lever), which become his arms in robot mode. Like [[Autolauncher]], he has a three-setting switch that changes how the toy reacts to being rolled on a smooth surface. In the center setting, it rolls free in whichever mode it’s in. The other two activate the toy’s auto-transforming gimmick; with the switch to the left, the toy transforms from robot to jet when rolled forward (and back when rolled in reverse), while the right position transforms him from jet to robot when rolled forward (and back when in reverse).

:Autojetter was reissued in the Korean ''[[Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2001 toyline)#Car Bot|Car Bot]]'' toyline, reassigned as an [[Autobot]] and renamed [[Scoutjet]].

* Autojetter's mold was originally created for ''[[Transformers: Generation 2 (franchise)|Generation 2]]'', but was one of several items that ended up canceled. This release would have been olive and orange, and its intended name is unknown.
* All of the ''Beast Wars II'' [[Autoroller]]s have 2-D card art, rather than the CGI model art made for the entire rest of the line.

:''9K is a [[Maximal]] from the [[Beast Era]] portion of the [[Generation 1 continuity family]].''

[[Image:Tfccm13_9k_robot.jpg|right|thumb|300px]]

'''9K''' is a captain in the highly-trained [[Maximal Command Security Force]]. His job is to uphold the will of the [[Maximal Imperium]] on [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]] in the name of the [[Pax Cybertronia]]. A highly-decorated officer, he prefers to stay in the field with his troops despite his high rank. His skill with [[energon]] weapons makes him a dangerous opponent.

==Fiction==
===Theft of the Golden Disk===
After [[Dinobot (BW)|a Predacon]] defeated three Maximal cops, 9K had a one-to-one combat with him. It seems 9K was defeated, too but survived since he was there when Cryotek was arrested. {{storylink|Theft of the Golden Disk}}

==Notes==
* 9K—like all of the MCSF—uses the ''[[Transformers: Cybertron (toyline)|Cybertron]]''-series [[Clocker (Cybertron)|Clocker]] toy as a base, though no official 9K toy exists (and probably never will). His color scheme (and name) is based on the ''[[Beast Wars: Transformers (franchise)|Beast Wars]]'' Maximal [[K-9]], though they appear to be two separate characters. Litter-mates, perhaps?
* Names for the Maximal Command Security Force were originally revealed by user icons of the characters in the [[Transformers Collectors' Club]] forum and profiles from within the [[Hasbro Transformers Collectors' Club (magazine)|fanclub magazine]].
