Clout

Clout is a Decepticon-allied Cyclone Mini-Con from the Robots in Disguise portion of the Aligned continuity family.
Sit Ubu sit.

Clout loves a good fight. So much so that this headstrong Cyclone often picks fights out of the blue for no reason other than boredom. Typically his target is fellow Mini-Con Bludgeon, though Bludgeon's just as likely to be the instigator in a tussle with Clout.

Bludgeon and Clout accompanied Scorponok to an abandoned drive-in theater, expecting a meeting with Crazybolt and Steeljaw, but only the speed-demon (eventually) showed up... and very shortly afterwards, Bumblebee and Grimlock made their appearance. Bludgeon and Clout pounced on Bumblebee and commenced pummeling him with their fists, but all three got the full brunt of a concentrated flame-roasting from Crazybolt. Though Bumblebee was able to withstand the flames long enough to knock Crazybolt out of the attack, Bludgeon and Clout couldn't take the heat and were knocked offline. After some flim-flammery from Bumblebee helped the Autobots take out the remaining Decepticons, the whole gang was loaded up into stasis cells back at the scrapyard. Misdirection

Clout's stasis pod was later taken back to Cybertron by Optimus Prime, Windblade, and Ratchet. Decepticon Island (Part 2)

Notes

[edit]
  • In the Japanese dub both Clout and Bludgeon often get into arguments over trivial topics such as "the enemy leader and I are the same color," and end up fighting with each other. For this, Scorponok always scolded them and both of their catchphrases include "You bastards."

Foreign names
