| '''Toxitron''' was a nobody, discovered by [[Shockwave (G1)|Shockwave]] in the [[Rust Sea|Sea of Rust]]. Shockwave promised Toxitron "gifts" which would give him power, but the modifications failed. Toxitron instead became a living weapon, exuding poison every conscious moment. He was eventually forgotten after others successfully benefited from Shockwave's upgrades. Toxitron now vows to take revenge on those Shockwave considers more "perfect".<ref>''Combiner Wars'' Toxitron profile card</ref>

| Toxitron can combine with his fellow [[Wrecker]]s to form [[Wreckage (G1)|Wreckage]]. Thanks to his internal forcefields, Toxitron's energies are prevented from damaging the combiner.

| |
| [[Loudpedal]] and [[Oil Slick (G1)|Oil Slick]] were ''trying'' to create a combiner when instead they made a subject that constantly produced noxious, toxic acid and could heal most wounds. Like the bastards they were, they implanted a [[stasis implant]] that would leave "Toxitron" paralysed and stewing in hate when they didn't want him used; this meant that when he was let off the leash, he would be many times more ''vicious''. The icing on the cake was giving him Optimus Prime's face.

| | |
| His first known attack was on the remnants of an Autobot force led by [[Spin-Out (Timelines)|Spin-Out]], where Toxitron was 'taken prisoner' and then wiped out the soldiers. His second was attacking a factory making the ''[[Ark (G1)|Ark]]'' engines, where he used the transponder from Spin-Out's rotting head to sneak in and went on to throw down with [[Jetfire (G1)|Jetfire]]. In each place he was used, he would especially loathe any Autobot whose armor was "too shiny". {{storylink|The Toxic Transformer}}
| |
| | |
| At some point during all this, Shockwave or one of his subordinates used Toxitron to "grow" a Matrix shell, which later became part of [[Thunder Mayhem]]. {{storylink|Foundation and Wreckage Part 1: Deadly Aim|Deadly Aim}}
| |
| | |
| The mad scientists got complacent and when the primary stasis implant melted, they assumed Toxitron was too conditioned to have realized it. Instead, the mutant was just waiting until a resupply ship arrived at the lab and then he broke free, butchered his tormentors in a very nasty way, and almost reached the ship to escape before the secondary implant kicked in. After that, the lab was abandoned. Toxitron stood immobile and alone until, after [[Thunder Mayhem]] had destroyed Cybertron, the [[Wrecker]]s came to recruit him for a revenge mission. He'd been tortured into being a monster and now [[Impactor (G1)|Impactor]], who openly said he didn't care what Toxie had done as long as he helped fight, was offering him a chance to belong but only to a group of monsters. Toxitron found that bloody funny and agreed to join. {{storylink|The Toxic Transformer}} Unbeknownst to them, Toxitron was also swayed by the idea of being part of a team, though he wasn't about to let them know that.
| |
| | |
| After the team recruited two new members, [[Alpha Bravo]] and [[Offroad]], Toxitron was recruited by Fractyl as a guinea-pig, hoping his resemblance to Optimus Prime would assist the scientist in an experimental mix of greenergon and a sample of Toxitron's fluids. Toxitron's animated ranting about Thunder Mayhem, and the cruelties of life, caused an accident in the lab.
| |
| | |
| Later on, after being knocked out with some assistance from Offroad, Toxitron had a special orb installed in him that would allow him to combine with others, along with an other ''special'' device of Impactor's. Afterward, the Wrecker took the motley crew on a daytrip to a Mechcannibal hive. Toxitron, for his part, was overjoyed to see such hideous creatures... at least until they took an interest in the "spicy" mechanoid, proving immune to his deteriorating touch. Before he could be devoured, the team formed the mighty Wreckage for the first time. However, the mesh of psyches proved uncontrollable, and the creation was soon split apart.

| |
| After recovering, Toxitron stumbled upon Alpha Bravo, the Autobot having fatally wounded Offroad in an attempt to prevent Wreckage ever forming again. Angered at this, though also impressed by the consequences of the Autobot's actions, Toxitron promptly ran Alpha Bravo through with his sword. In the aftermath, Impactor indicated he'd devised a means of dealing with their combined form if the situation went too far. Outraged at being lied to ''again'', Toxitron went on a rampage through the ship. {{storylink|Foundation and Wreckage Part 1: Deadly Aim|Deadly Aim}}
| |
| | |
| The Wreckers followed a signal back to Cybertron, where they met the Autobot gunner known as [[Bluestreak (G1)|Bluestreak]]. The chatterbox impressed Toxitron, both with his kill record and his penchant not to brag about it, especially after Thunder Mayhem. Bluestreak had met alien terraformers known as the [[Teklaan]]s who offered to restore Cybertron, but betrayed him and placed him in captivity along with the Wreckers. They learned the rejuvenation effect was something of a slow invasion, designed to destroy the planet again within a generation, allowing the Teklaans to claim it according to their programming.
| |
| | |
| When the Wreckers broke out, Toxitron, Fractyl, and Counterpunch made their way to the planetary rejuvenation emitter in the Teklaan ship. They came up with an idea to absorb and contain the rejuvenation radiation within the crystalline lattice of Toxitron's Greenergon matrix, but it seemed like the energy would be more than Toxitron could handle. Impactor and Bluestreak arrived, having modified themselves for Combination, and it was decided Wreckage might be able to absorb more power than Toxitron alone. The Wreckers combiner was reformed and successfully stopped the terraforming process and destroyed the Teklaan ship. Wreckage also pointedly located and removed Impactor's failsafe device from within the portion of him that was Toxitron. {{storylink|Lively Pursuit}}

| | |
| Toxitron and the Wreckers received a signal tracking Thunder Mayhem to the planet [[Earth]]. Toxitron used his sludge to ruin the pretty features of the Minion of Unicron known as [[Ramjet (Universe)|Ramjet]] (Thunder Mayhem's partner), unaware the dimensional hopper may have actually preferred his old, unstable physical condition. {{storylink|Pandora's Gift}} There they teamed up with [[Optimus Prime (G1)|Optimus Prime]], [[Megatron (G1)|Megatron]], and the humans and [[Mega Pretender]]s of another reality to battle Thunder Mayhem. The human [[Lisa|Elizabeth]] used her power to channel Wreckage's energies and shatter the [[Matrix of Malice]], forcing the evil combiner apart. Toxitron and the Wreckers took the Mayhem Attack Squad into custody following that exchange. {{storylink|Finale}}

| :Part of the [[Transformers Figure Subscription Service#Series 5.0 (2016)|Figure Subscription Service 5.0]], ''[[Combiner Wars (toyline)|Combiner Wars]]'' "Wrecker Toxitron" is a [[redeco]] of ''Combiner Wars'' [[Motormaster (G1)#Combiner Wars|Motormaster]] with the mold's previously unused alternate head, with the combiner head being reused from the Optimus Prime mold. Like all ''Combiner Wars''-style Voyager Class figures, he can combine any compatible Deluxe Class figures, although he is intended to form the torso of [[Wreckage (G1)#Generations|Wreckage]]. His two accessories can combine into a larger sword for his combined mode.
| |
| | |
| :Toxitron uses the revised version of the hip joints. Despite the ratchet fix however, the other design failures of the original mold related to combining still remain. As an unadvertised feature, [[Blackjack#Generations|Blackjack]] (and any of his redecoes) can plug onto the pegs of Toxitron's gestalt chest, though the tension is weak.
| |
| | |
| :He was released along with [[Punch (G1)#Generations|Wrecker Counterpunch]] and [[Starscream (SG)#Generations|Shattered Glass Starscream]].

| ==Notes==
| |
| *[[Fun Publications]] scrapped tentative plans to do a ''Combiner Wars'' [[Nemesis Prime (G1)|Nemesis Prime]] toy because e-HOBBY did the similar [[Grand Scourge#Unite Warriors|''Unite Warriors'' Grand Scourge]]. Thus the North American use of ''Combiner Wars'' [[Motormaster (G1)#Combiner Wars|Motormaster]]'s pretooled alternate head went to Toxitron instead.<ref>http://www.allspark.com/forums/topic/127659-future-of-unite-warriors-from-figure-king/page-2#entry3212769</ref>
| |
| *Though a Decepticon at first allegiance, Toxitron sports a "melted" Autobot logo on his toy, as well as having an Autobot logo on his [[Bio]] and [[Tech Spec]] card. Thus he is listed under both factions on this page.
