The gigantic '''Demolishor''' may not be the sharpest tool in the shed, but he's smart enough to know when to fight openly and when to stick to the shadows. One of the [[Constructicon (ROTF)|Constructicons]], Demolishor arrived on [[Earth]] to find [[Megatron (Movie)|Megatron]] dead, so he went into hiding, gathering other Decepticons who needed a big, blunt instrument to cower behind. Now in charge of this little band, he awaits the day when a new Decepticon leader will rise.

In the distant past, the [[AllSpark (Movie)|All Spark]] Cube created [[Thirteen original Transformers|a race]] of powerful, trans-dimensional beings as the first inhabitants of [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]]. The Cube gave these beings mighty powers, as well as terraforming their world, but it was not limitless, and gradually became depleted. The first beings learned that the All Spark's power could be replenished by harvesting the energy of stars, but they were unable to locate new stars to suit their purposes, despite their amazing ability to travel between dimensions. Once again, the Cube came to the rescue, creating a race of workers, who had the ability to change their shape.

Demolishor (or a Transformer who shared his [[body-type]]) was among the very first of these new beings, one of several "builders" who would construct a [[Solar harvester|harvester]] when a suitable sun had been found. Once built, the device would drain the energy of these stars, thus replenishing the All Spark. {{Storylink|Defiance issue 4}} It is assumed that at some point during the civil war on Cybertron, he sided with [[Megatron (Movie)|Megatron]], the new protege of Demolishor's only surviving ancient master, [[The Fallen]].

During the war on Cybertron, Demolishor was used as a shock trooper, sowing terror amongst settlements of displaced Autobots. At one of his massacres there was a survivor, the Autobot [[Sideswipe (ROTF)|Sideswipe]].

Demolishor's modus operandi continued when he arrived on [[Earth]], wreaking havoc in human cities, literally daring the Autobots to stop him so that, once baited, he could slaughter the Autobot forces. This caught the attention of Sideswipe, whom Demolishor had assumed was already dead. Delighting in the return of his old playmate, the Decepticon led Sideswipe on a destructive chase through [[Montevideo]], [[Uruguay]]. Ultimately he was driven to ground again by the arrival of [[Optimus Prime (Movie)|Optimus Prime]] and the [[human]]-[[Autobot]] [[NEST]] team. {{storylink|Tales of the Fallen issue 2}}

He was later detected in [[Shanghai]], [[China]], prompting NEST to mobilize once again. {{storylink|Alliance issue 4}}

NEST arrived in Shanghai with a cover story from the Chinese government that there was a chemical spill in the area. Major Lennox and his men followed a radiation blip to a construction site where a massive excavator stood. Suddenly, the excavator transformed and revealed itself to be Demolishor! In fury, he smashed his arms on the ground, flinging concrete pipes onto approaching NEST troopers, crushing them, before rolling away. NEST's firepower availed them little as Demolishor shrugged off their attacks and smashed his way to the nearby freeway. Most of the Autobots were soon deployed to deal with his running comrade [[Sideways (ROTF)|Sideways]], leaving NEST with only [[Ironhide (Movie)|Ironhide]] to deal with the massive Constructicon. Overhead, a [[United States Air Force#C-17 Globemaster III|C-17 Globemaster III]] circled, dropping the most powerful Autobot onto the battle field: [[Optimus Prime (Movie)|Optimus Prime]] had entered the game.

As Demolishor rolled along the freeway, crushing cars, destroying barriers and casually tossing nearby cars to their doom, Optimus intercepted him at an overpass and leaped onto his head as the Decepticon reduced the overpass to rubble. Demolishor declined Optimus' demand for him to "pull over" forcing the Autobot leader to fire his [[Ion blaster]] into the former's head, soon followed by Ironhide jumping on and shooting out his massive tires. The crippled Decepticon crashed into a warehouse district and was helpless as Optimus Prime, Ironhide, and the rest of the NEST soldiers advanced. 

Standing before the "Punk-ass Decepticon" as Ironhide dubbed him, Optimus inquired if there were any last words he wished to convey. In defiance, Demolishor declared with his dying breath that they were too late, and that [[The Fallen]] would rise again. Optimus Prime replied in the negative and shot him through the optic, executing him. {{storylink|Revenge of the Fallen (film)|Revenge of the Fallen}}

=====Autobot campaign=====
During the battle in Shanghai, Demolishor obtained the remaining AllSpark fragment, and tried to get out of the city before the Autobots could get their hands on it. However, the Autobots crippled him and forced him into battle. One short fight later, Demolishor was beaten, but not before he could tell the Autobots that their victory would be short-lived, and the Fallen would rise again.

Oh, the Decepticons still had the AllSpark fragment, somehow.

=====Decepticon campaign=====
[[Soundwave (ROTF)| Soundwave]] ordered Demolishor to obtain the AllSpark fragment from a convoy driving around in Shanghai. He obtained it, but perished during the escape. None of the Decepticons actualy cared, however, because they got the AllSpark fragment.

*'''Demolishor''' (Voyager, 2009)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''RD-03'''

:Demolishor transforms from a red [http://www.terex.com/main.php?obj=prod&action=VIEW&nav=prod&id=67dfc329929677047029393f18f590e9 O&K/Terex RH400 heavy duty excavator] into a very unique robot mode via a surprisingly complex transformation. His [[Mech Alive]] gimmick in robot mode is a drum in each arm that spins when you move his lower arm (not in the shoulders as the packaging call out states). He has real rubber treads that sadly can't move, and no little plastic wheels that help it move either. He is almost impossible to stand up—let alone pose—but it ''can'' be managed.

:In the film, Demolishor's vehicle mode features a lot more white. This toy's colors are actually a match to [[Scavenger (ROTF)|Scavenger's]] colors.

:Like several ''[[Revenge of the Fallen (toyline)|Revenge of the Fallen]]'' toys, such as [[Starscream (Movie)|Voyager class Starscream]] and [[Optimus Prime (Movie)|Leader class Optimus Prime]], Demolishor is yet another victim of late mold changes due to 2008-2009 economic problems.  On the back of the box, his treads are pictured as being made of several individual, linked plastic sections.  The sections were apparently recast as a single rubber tread ring instead for the final toy. 

:Also, in the instructions it states that the wheel on a ratchet joint should go down, but by flipping the wheels around, you can use the free-wheeling wheel to roll him.

==Notes==
*Demolishor is identical in design and vehicle form to [[Scavenger (ROTF)|Scavenger]]. In the film itself, Demolishor is mostly white with red striping and signage, but in other places his coloration matches Scavenger, such as his toy, his ''Robot Heroes'' figure, and in his appearances in [[Revenge of the Fallen (video games)|the video game]] and [[Revenge of the Fallen Movie Adaptation issue 1|the comic adaptation]].  [[Repurposing]] is quite fitting, if one so chooses.

*In the comic adaptation, Demolishor's [[alternate mode]] is a different model of steam shovel. It is a smaller model that could more realistically hide out in a big city than the very large mining excavator of the toy and movie.

*Though likely as vicious as every other Decepticon shown in the movie continuity, Demolishor's demise could be viewed as a rather unfortunate moral grey area on the Autobots' part. Technically he was just hiding and did not attack until his discovery was imminent. To make matters worse his toy bio, while far from flattering, seems to imply that he "takes care of smaller frightened Decepticons out of the goodness of his spark". To top things off, his completely accurate statement that Earth was not the Autobots' to rule never actually implies that it is the Decepticons' either. Again, probably a monstrous mechanical bully... but still slightly unsettling.  [[Tales of the Fallen issue 2|''Tales of the Fallen #2'']] somewhat retroactively justifies Demolishor's execution, painting him as a Decepticon that revels in creating collateral damage and one that is responsible for several Autobot massacres in the past. 

*During the production of ''Revenge of the Fallen'', the as-yet-unnamed Demolishor was referred to with the simple if descriptive moniker of "'''Wheelbot'''". Although Hasbro went on to provide a proper name for the character, Demolishor still wound up being listed as "Wheelbot" in the credits of the film itself.
