Scrapmetal is a Terrorcon from the Cybertron portion of the Unicron Trilogy.
Scrapmetal is an abberation among his own kind, a mutant among mutants. Though he is physcially identical to his kin, of the thousands of near-mindless Scrapmetal drones that have chewed their way up from Cybertron's depths, this Scrapmetal is the only one to have developed intelligence. This only makes the swarm more dangerous.
Scrapmetal is just intelligent enough to be considered sentient, able to formulate simple plans and lead the swarm to specific targets. In theory he could be reasoned with, but good luck. All he wants is to feed and grow in power, and will stomp, blast, gouge and devour anything in his way to obtain it.

Part of the Basic price-point, Scrapmetal transforms into a four-legged "spider tank" with top-mounted cannon. Inserting a Cyber Planet Key into the back end of the turret swings a removable clear-plastic sawblade-sword from the main chamber of the cannon. He comes with a Decepticon-insignia Cyberton-syle Cyber Planet Key. The toy can represent either the mindless drone or Scrapmetal himself.
A slight retool and redeco of the toy is used for Coby's Scrapmetal.
In Japan, three different colors of Scrapmetal were made available; red, blue and yellow, produced in equal numbers. At this time, only the red version is available as part of the Hasbro Cybertron line, with a few minor paint application changes.
