The Maximal Command Security Force is a group from the Beast Era portion of the Generation 1 continuity family.

Group Photo Day—best time to commit crimes on Cybertron.

The Maximal Command Security Force was formed by the Maximal Imperium following the Pax Cybertronia. Highly trained, this elite police force is dedicated to protecting the fragile peace between the Maximals and Predacons.

Like the Seekers of Decepticon legend, M.C.S.F. officers (or MaxCops) are all patterned from a shared bodyframe, with individualized colors and some part variations. It is unknown whether its officers are born into the organization, or if new recruits are reformatted into the shared bodyframe.

Known current or former members:

• 9K
• Cheetor (former cadet)
• Getout
• High Beam
• Nitrostreak (Unit 1)
• Overshoot
• Polar Claw
• Shatterpoint
• Snarl
• Stopgap
• Switchblade
• "Tigatron" (Unit 2)

Fiction

Beast Wars cartoon continuity

Dawn of Future's Past

The events of "Dawn of Future's Past" are also incorporated into the Wings Universe.

Unit 1 and Unit 2, charged with defending Cybertron's historical artifacts, came under fire from a band of Predacons stealing the Golden Disk. Disabling Unit 1, the Predacons were able to escape with their prize and a stolen ship, but Unit 2 commandeered a shuttle and its pilot in pursuit. Unit 2 ended up critically damaged and was reborn as a participant in the Beast Wars. Dawn of Future's Past

Wings Universe

Wings Universe is based on the Generation 1 cartoon, but deviates from it in cosmetic ways and continuity points.

Apelinq hypothesized that an officially non-existent safe house on the edge of supposedly empty space was a place where the Maximal Command Security Force could hide dignitaries whom the Force did not want to be found. Unfortunately, the mercenary Flamewar found it anyway and massacred a delegation from the Twin Star Continuum. Apelinq's Personal Journal

Beast Wars: Uprising

The Maximal Command Security Force was the Maximal police agency serving the Builders of Cybertron. When Lio Convoy met Blackarachnia, he was careful to keep her out of sight of MCSF patrols. Later, after she had opened his eyes up to the injustice of Cybertronian society, Lio Convoy ran into MCSF officers Snarl and Polar Claw arresting Noctorro for the absurd violation of staring at one's reflection for more than 90 nano-kliks. Disturbed at the injustice they were forcing on the hapless Noctorro, he challenged their authority and knocked them unconscious. A few days later, Lio Convoy sneaked a rebel team to the Dodecahex Arena, where the 1924th Games were being held. 400 MCSF and 50 Predacon Secret Police members were spread out throughout the Maximal/Predacon crowd. When Lio Convoy assassinated Supersonic, publicly exposed the Builders' corruption, and called for a rebellion against the Builders, the MCSF tried to stop him but were paralyzed by his Solipsistic Staff. Meanwhile, B'Boom and Scylla dispatched Override's MCSF guards in order to allow Lio Convoy to make his planetwide broadcast. Broken Windshields
