This article is about the Aligned Insecticon named Sharpshot. For the Generation 1 Insecticon sometimes called Sharpshot, see Shrapnel (G1){{#switch:{{#sub:Shrapnel (G1)|-1}}|!=|.=|?=|.}} For a list of other meanings, see Shrapnel (disambiguation).
Sharpshot is a Decepticon Insecticon from the Fall of Cybertron portion of 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?

Sharpshot and his brothers were discovered by Shockwave while the Decepticon scientist was searching for the mythical Dark Spark. Sharpshot was the last of the three sentient Insecticons to attack Shockwave, but didn't fair any better against the Decepticon than his brothers had, and agreed to join the Decepticons after a sound defeat.

When Shockwave was preparing to engage Optimus Prime to take the Dark Spark, Sharpshot arrived and informed Shockwave that the Autobot leader did not, in fact, possess the Dark Spark, and that the Autobot Ironhide was currently in possession of the relic. After helping Shockwave take the Dark Spark from Ironhide, Sharpshot escorted Shockwave out of the subway. After meeting with considerable resistance from Autobot forces, the two Decepticons rendezvoused with the Combaticons Vortex and Swindle. Swindle assisted in escorting Shockwave back to Kaon until Sharpshot was spooked into abandoning his compatriots, much to their confusion. Rise of the Dark Spark
