Fiction

Groundshaker was one of a few Micromasters who were caught in a plasma energy accident when the Autobots experimented with Energon Z. This changed them into Targetmasters, LG-EX Big Powered Prologue Part One and they partnered with larger Autobots, adopting the moniker "Mini-Cons" in the process. Partnered with Tailgate, Groundshaker would use his claw mode to help his partner defuse bombs. Tailgate/G1 Mini-Con Chapter During Tailgate and Swerve's battle with Trypticon in 2015, Tailgate used Groundshaker to pluck Swerve out of a hole in the ground, then revealed his weapon's true identity as a tiny robot to Rattrap in order to make the rat feel better about his own small size.
