	'''Spanner''' was a neutral scientist who didn't believe in choosing a side in the Autobot/Decepticon war. The war soon chose him, however, as he was captured by Lord [[Straxus (G1)\|Straxus]]'s Decepticons and forced to design them a [[Space Bridge]] to reach [[Earth]]. Being a cruel tyrant, Straxus had his troops incorporate the hapless scientist into the bridge itself.
