This article is a featured article, and considered to be one of the most informative on this wiki.

Filch is a Decepticon Corvicon from the Robots in Disguise portion of the Aligned continuity family.
Kind of a reverse-Flock-of-Seagulls thing she's got going there.

Filch is a Decepticon of exceedingly simple tastes. If it's shiny, she wants it. That's the long and short of it. It doesn't matter how worthless an item actually is, this maniacal mechanical magpie will take anything that even momentarily glints in the sunlight. She likes to build nests up high so the sun can make her prized collection of whatever all... shiny.

This wouldn't be so bad if she wasn't a really huge, really strong bird capable of ripping steel beams out of concrete to get whatever's caught her eye this time. Her penchant for pilfering has left a whole lot of collateral damage.

Like some vast, kleptomaniacal bird!

One of the many prisoners aboard the Alchemor, Filch was freed from her stasis pod when the ship crashed on Earth. She began nesting in the torch atop the Crown City Colossus outside Crown City and collected any shiny objects from the surrounding area that caught her interest. She was eventually detected by the Autobots, resulting in her getting into a scuffle with Bumblebee's team until she spotted a shiny transmission tower insulator and flew off with it. She next attempted to steal a beam from the bridge into Crown City, only to end up in a tug of war with Bumblebee, until she made off with both the beam and Denny Clay (his hat was shiny!), depositing both in her nest. When the Autobots caught up with her and started climbing the statue to rescue Denny, she fought them until they managed to render her unconscious. They took her back to the scrapyard to be placed back in a stasis pod. Collect 'Em All

Filch's stasis pod was later taken back to Cybertron by Optimus Prime, Windblade and Ratchet. Decepticon Island (Part 2)

2015 Robots in Disguise books

[edit]

Thanks to Grimlock's clumsiness, Filch was freed from her stasis pod and took off. She didn't get far, snatching Scuzzard whom Bumblebee's team was in the process of bringing back to the scrapyard, and taking him to the nearby amusement park. When he started eating dodgems and growing larger, she decided he was threatening her territory and fought with him. The pair were found by the Autobots who managed to recapture them. Back in the scrapyard, Filch made another bid for freedom, only to be caught by Denny's electromagnet, and was returned to a stasis pod. Bumblebee Versus Scuzzard
