- Roughstuff is a Decepticon Micromaster from the Generation 1 continuity family.
Roughstuff is the poster-child for "trigger-happy". (Actually, Triggerhappy is the poster-child for "trigger-happy", but Roughstuff can be the poster-nephew, or something.) At the slightest hint of a target, he'll fire. "Verifying the target" and "aiming" are for sissy-bots.
In a rare sign of wisdom, his superiors have transferred him very far from the front lines. This has just made him even more hungry for things to shoot at.[1]
- French-Canadian name: Brutus
- European-market name: Tornado

Roughstuff, like most Micromasters, was created by the Autobots and Decepticons in a joint venture several million years ago to increase manpower. During the training period, he was one of several Micros who respected the hot shot named Runner, aka Barricade, and apparently joined up with the Decepticon cause after the Meltdown Riots. Victims of the Revolution. Sometime later, he was acting as a bouncer in Little Iacon, checking Micros before they were allowed into the bar. The Gray Race
