The Micromaster Combiner Constructor Squad is a rare example of a group of Decepticons more enamored with creation than destruction. That doesn't mean they don't enjoy watching a beautiful structure being demolished; they just want even more to replace it with a terrifying edifice. Every Decepticon victory is an excuse to erect a monument at headquarters. Their enthusiasm to build can even transcend allegiance, if the bid is high enough. They're unbeatable as a team (under the command of Hammer), but, as individuals, their ambitions to out-design one another can get the best of them.<ref>On-package bio</ref>

The Constructor Squad consists of:

Dreamwave Generation One continuity

Enthusiastic, loyal, skilled, and hard-working, they have achieved many impressive successes, but they have yet to surpass the Constructicons in the esteem of Decepticon High Command. The Constructor Squad leader, Hammer, believes it's only a matter of time before this is remedied. More than Meets the Eye

The Transformers

  • Constructor Squad (Micromaster Combiner Squad, 1990)
Released in the seventh and final year of the original The Transformers toyline in the US (sixth and not-final in European markets), the Constructor Squad was sold as a carded pack of three pairs of Micromasters: Stonecruncher and Excavator, Grit and Knockout, and Sledge and Hammer.
Each member forms half of a construction-themed vehicle, though they are all compatible with any other Micromaster Combiner or Combiner Transport, enabling you for form all sorts of weird new vehicles.
Members from this team were used — without alteration — to make the Japanese Autobot Crane Cannon W Team and the Dump Shovel W Team. They were also redecoed to make the pilots for the various Combiner Transports — Gusher & Pipeline, Retro & Surge, and Cement-Head & Terror-Tread.
