I'm the only new guy!

We won't bore you with the details, but the appearance of Drill Bit doesn't augur well for any Autobots who get in his way. He knows the drill—he'll stop at nothing to dig up his quarry, and his favorite word is "MINE!"

He can also form part of the super robot Devastator. We'll let that sink in.
