Let's see what you can see...

This article is in need of images.

Skull Buster is a Unicron-allied Mini-Con from the Armada portion of the Unicron Trilogy continuity family.
Skull Buster is the one on the bottom right, playing a game of invisible craps.

Skull Buster is a member of the Aerial Extermination Mini-Con Team, and a personal attendant to Nemesis Prime. A one-robot wrecking crew, this brutal 'bot can and will perform a dictionary's worth of violent verbs on a victim (though if he'd know what the words meant is anyone's guess). Extremely monomaniacal, he won't let up on a target until they're reduced to their base parts.

Of course, groups of targets are another matter entirely...[1]

Skull Buster is never seen as an individual, only as part of the combined Vorpal Saber sword. Puppet Linkage Part 11

This toy is largely identical to the Hasbro "Air Assault" version of Jetstorm, but uses transparent plastic with a hint of purple instead of the Hasbro version's opaque off-white. He came with his partners Jackknife and Maverick.
This mold was also retooled to make Energon Scattor, Quantum, and Cybertron Thrust.
