Beastbox is a Decepticon in the Generation 1 continuity.
Like the apes he resembles, Beastbox is naturally curious, which should, in theory, make him an excellent interrogator. Unfortunately, that curiosity is subsumed by his impatience and violent rages. Although he can record up to 6000 hours of testimony, he rarely captures anything but screams and cries as he pummels his recalcitrant captives with his heavy metal fists. His superiors are rather displeased with his performance - it's difficult to gain information from an Autobot after he's been beaten to death.
