	Bonecrusher was one of the [[protoform]]s jettisoned by the ''[[Axalon (BW)\|Axalon]]'' on prehistoric [[Earth]]. He was activated and put in [[chronal phase]] by [[Razorbeast]] at [[Magmatron]]'s request, but was protected from Magmatron's Predacon shell-program by Razorbeast's viral code.

	Stubborn and strong, '''Bonecrusher''' loves to battle [[Predacon (BW)\|Predacons]]. Despite the urging of his commanders, he cannot overcome his urge to engage the enemy violently. His personality has two settings—calm and crazed—and he knows just one strategy: '''CHARGE!''' Thankfully, his beast head and horns are super-reinforced to withstand any impact. It's a trait he puts to good use plowing through absolutely anything in his way. He's been known to charge through forest, rock, defensive emplacements, enemies, bunkers, more rock, more forest, more enemies, more rock, and so on...sometimes ending up nearly 30 miles behind enemy lines! Understandably, he tends to be held in reserve for last-ditch efforts, but when given reign, one of his unstoppable charges can easily turn the tide of a battle.
