Fiction

At the time of Velocitron reestablishing contact with Cybertron, Ransack and Override shared some power. Moonracer assessed that he had a good chance at winning the next Speedia race; victory of said race would give him power over the entire planet. Race Against the Light

When Moonracer explained Velocitronian society to her new Camien friend Windblade, Ransack was one of the prominent Velocitronians she thought of. Windblade vol. 2 #4

Soon thereafter in Delta, Override and Ransack watched the Benefit 500 from their leaders' box. As with others, Ransack was stunned to see the offworlder Blurr win the race. Race Against the Light

Notes

• Ransack is primarily based on Cybertron Ransack. His role as Override's main rival comes from Prime Ransack, who is also based on Cybertron Ransack.
• Ransack's debut (via an imagination sequence) in Windblade vol. 2 #4 had him in a mostly white with red color scheme, but in the following issue he appears (in the metal) in a more traditional Cybertron-based red and gold color scheme.
