- Crowbar is a Decepticon Dread from the Dark of the Moon portion of the live-action film series continuity family.
Crowbar is well known as a master of breaking and entering. It doesn't matter if we're talking computer systems, human safes, or enemy compounds he's got the tools and skills needed to get you in. His weapons of choice are "nanotech sentries".
He also gives this wiki a lot of openings to make references to The Lost Skeleton of Cadavra.

Toys
Dark of the Moon
- Crowbar (Cyberverse Legion, 2011)
- Series: 1
- Number: 009
- Japanese ID number:
- Part of the second wave of Cyberverse Legion single-pack toys, Crowbar is a Legends-scale figure that transforms into a unmarked version of a Carbon Motors E7 Police car. His left hand is designed to interact with Cyberverse weapons and playsets. He has molded detail around his head that resembles dreadlocks. Due to the armor plating on his knees, his arms can be hard to transform.
Notes
- The Transformers.com website's Vector Sigma database entry for Crowbar strangely illustrates his nanotech sentries using an image of Roadbuster's Assault Saw weapon.
