| This article is about the Aligned Insecticon named Sharpshot. For the Generation 1 Insecticon sometimes called Sharpshot, see Shrapnel (G1). |
- Sharpshot is a Decepticon Insecticon from the Aligned continuity family.
Sharpshot is the leader of the Insecticons. He's extremely arrogant and sadistic, but cowardly whenever things don't go his way. He really likes electrocuting things, and seems to gain some sort of pleasure from it akin to a human taking drugs.
It's seriously creepy, the guy is practically a textbook sadist. Why else do you think Shockwave considers him the most dangerous of the Insecticons?
Fiction
Fall of Cybertron comic
Sharpshot and his Insecticons ambushed and defeated Swoop during his infiltration of Shockwave's citadel. Secrets Alongside Hardshell and Kickback, he stood by Shockwave's side when the rest of the Lightning Strike Coalition arrived to save their buddy. Siege Mentality
Games
Fall of Cybertron
- Voice actors: Steve Blum (English)
Sharpshot was the last of the Insecticons that Grimlock encountered when trying to free the rest of the Dinobots. He repeatedly taunted Grimlock after meeting him till he, Slug and Swoop reached Snarl, who was trapped in some sort of torture machine that even Slug couldn't break him out of. Exactly what the machine did is unclear, only that when Sharpshot activated it, it nearly killed Snarl by what appeared to be draining the energon from him. Grimlock, employing his usual strategy when all else fails, broke every piece of the machine, saving Snarl, and somehow causing some sort of feedback that knocked Sharpshot off the platform that kept him out of reach of Grimlock. The angry Dinobot then approached the defenseless Insecticon, who made a vain attempt to plead for mercy before Grimlock bit him and shook him around, breaking one Sharpshot's legs off, and then slamming him into the ground and crushing him. Whether he survived or not is uncertain, but given the damage caused by Grimlock, his survival seems unlikely. Fall of Cybertron
Notes
- In what is presumably a slip-up on somebody's part, Generation 1 Shrapnel's verbal tic of repeating the last word in a sentence is given to Fall of Cybertron Kickback rather than Sharpshot.
