Fiction
Marvel Comics continuity
Regeneration One
Four Neo-Decepticons - Afterburner, Eagle Eye, Terradive and Windrazor - broke into the Pax Cybertronia Decommissioning Depot, where multiple Warbirds were stored, tripping every alarm as they went and alerting the Civil Defense Force to their actions. As Ultra Magnus, concerned about the destructive potential, attempted to negotiate their surrender, Eagle Eye worked out a way to use the detonator cap from a Warbird to create a small explosion that would stun Magnus' troops as they pretended to give themselves up, allowing them to escape.
Unfortunately for them, Soundwave had sent Chop Shop, Ransack and Venom to prevent their surrender by killing them and arming the warheads. Once the Skyscorchers were dead, the three Insecticons set one of the missiles on a half-breem countdown through the use of a mechanical "drill bug", but as they attempted to escape were apprehended by the Wreckers with detention-spheres and the Type-K Warbird disarmed by Springer with an emergency stand-down code supplied by Perceptor.
