"This doesn't conform to the traditional Transformers aesthetic. Disown. Disown."

Push-Button is the hopelessly mis-matched Targetmaster partner to Mainframe. You see, while Mainframe is absolutely enthralled by programming and frequently uses Push-Button to debug his programs, Push-Button would rather be on the front lines, destroying Decepticons with his alternate proton rifle mode.
