As part of a plan to save Decepticon resources, Ratbat decided to hire the freighter pilot to make shipments to Earth instead of using the space bridge. On his way to Earth, the pilot had mechanical difficulties and had to make repairs to the outside of his ship. The ship passed through what he thought was a dust cloud, but really was a swarm of scraplets. The pilot became infected and he crashed his freighter on Earth, drawing the attention of the local inhabitants.
As he lay dying inside the crater created by his crash landing, the Decepticon Triple Changers arrived demanding to know what happened to his shipment. He tried to warn them to stay away but they wouldn't listen and they too became infected with the deadliest disease known to mechanical life. The Triple Changers' attention was then directed to two Autobots who had shown up. During the ensuing battle, Goldbug and Charlie Fong approached the pilot and the pilot shouted out a warning about the scraplets. From a distance, the freighter pilot recounted his story on how he became infected before finally succumbing to the disease and losing his head. Crater Critters
