"Wade, is that you?"

Dirt Boss has plans. His small size has condemned him to the role of a lowly underling, but he's a master manipulator, and takes every opportunity to out-maneuver and undermine his rivals and superiors. He's a skilled and agile warrior, as well, making it likely that he'll fulfill his ambitions—eventually.

Revenge of the Fallen

• Dirt Boss (Scout, 2009)
  • Japanese ID number: RD-08

Dirt Boss transforms into a bright green and grey forklift. The loading mast cannot raise or lower, but it can tilt at a hinge near the carriage. Inside the cab there is a seat and a (non-functional) distinctive forklift steering wheel. In robot mode, Dirt Boss' vehicle forks are mounted on his arms as blades.

This mold was also used for Deadlift.

Notes

• Dirt Boss is quite possibly the most contradictory character in recent years. He appears alongside Constructicons and shares a name, color and alternate mode with a Constructicon appearing in Animated, but is not a Constructicon. His body design is nearly identical to Scrapper from the first movie's video game, but, well, he's not that Scrapper. He also has absolutely nothing to do with dirt, bossing, or even embossing. Huh.
