- Skull Buster is a Unicron-allied Mini-Con from the Armada portion of the Unicron Trilogy continuity family.
Skull Buster is a member of the Aerial Extermination Mini-Con Team, and a personal attendant to Nemesis Prime. A one-robot wrecking crew, this brutal 'bot can and will perform a dictionary's worth of violent verbs on a victim (though if he'd know what the words meant is anyone's guess). Extremely monomaniacal, he won't let up on a target until they're reduced to their base parts.
Of course, groups of targets are another matter entirely...[1]
