- Buffalo Dump is a hideous experiment from the Generation 1 continuity family.
"A creature of instinct" describes Buffalo Dump. Part Cybertronian, part mechanimal, he and the Minotorons he leads are creations of the Decepticon Rage. Buffalo Dump cannot be reasoned with, and any firepower you hit him with will just make him angrier—the one way to control him is via high-frequency sound. Rage keeps him and his fellows in a specially-constructed area of the Metrotitan, with computer banks devoted to taking care of their feeding, exercise and waste processes.
