Fiction

Beast Wars: Uprising

Gigascouter was part of the Resistance during the Grand Uprising, and served as first mate aboard the Broadside to Captain Scylla. When the Resistance made their great push towards Builder-controlled Iacon, the Broadside led the fleet into the Yuss Straits from the Great Rust Sea. They matched wits with the Builder Banzai-Tron aboard the Tidal Wave, but the Resistance's subsea fleet proved superior to the Builders thanks to their aquatic Beast Upgrades. Unfortunately Banzai-Tron wasn't willing to give up. He sent the Tidal Wave on a final collision course towards the Broadside. Scylla and Gigascouter could not stop the massive ship's advance, and ordered all hands to abandon ship. Despite his captain's orders, Gigascouter remained at his stationed coordinating troop departures till the last second, and went down with Scylla and the ship. Derailment

Gigascouter is a redeco of Full-Tilt, transforming into a Cybertronic car. Unlike Full-Tilt, he does not have any accessories. (Already-lost gun for your convenience!) Available only with Gigastorm (in fact, he's the only thing that comes with Gigastorm), he pegs onto Giga's dino-mode chestplate.
