Ground Force Applied Sciences Raider<ref>War for Cybertron: Earthrise online material</ref> Doublecrosser is a double-headed Decepticon that transforms into a shield to protect his fellow soldiers. He's a paranoid sort, though, the type to bail out if he feels like his partner is just using him.<ref>Transformers: Earth Wars mobile game bio for Doublecrosser</ref>

Sometimes, he is a mass-produced body-type of Selectors.

Fiction

[edit]

Generations Selects Special Comic

[edit]
Doublecrosser is here only to increase the rebellion's headcount.

A type of Selector created by humans with the power of Angolmois Energy, Doublecrossers were used as walls and ceilings. However, the Selectors didn't care for their position in life and sought to rebel against humanity with the help of Megatron's Decepticons. With their assistance, the Doublecrossers and other Selectors began their rebellion in Neo Scramble City. Volcanicus comic 1

One Doublecrosser stood by Selector leader Rung as he denounced Optimus Prime's treatment of the Dinobots, and later watched as the new combiner Volcaticon announced his intent to find a solution that would benefit both humans and Selectors, moments before the Quintessons and their Terrorcon servants invaded. Volcanicus comic 2

As the Terrorcons attacked Autobots, Decepticons, and Selectors alike, multiple Doublecrossers combined themselves into a barrier to protect Inferno and Red Alert from Rippersnapper's Anglomois Ball attack. In response, Cutthroat simply picked them up and dropped them into a nest of ravenous Pteraxadons. Abominus comic 1
