Fiction

Generations Selects Special Comic

I'm sure the tables and chairs won't rise up against us.

A type of Selector created by humans with the power of Angolmois Energy, Soundbarriers were used as ramps, servants, and assorted furniture. However, the Selectors didn't care for their position in life and sought to rebel against humanity with the help of Megatron's Decepticons. With their assistance, the Soundbarriers and other Selectors began their rebellion in Neo Scramble City. Volcanicus comic 1

One Soundbarrier stood by Selector leader Rung as he denounced Optimus Prime's treatment of the Dinobots, and later watched as the new combiner Volcaticon announced his intent to find a solution that would benefit both humans and Selectors, moments before the Quintessons and their Terrorcon servants invaded.
