| This article is about the Autobot informant. For the Maximal energon miner/warrior, see Rattrap. |
- Rattletrap is an Autobot from the Transformers Animated continuity family.
Rattletrap is that one 'bot who will tell you anything if you "persuade" him enough. He's kind of a dirty rat when you think about it.
Fiction
Animated cartoon
- Voice actor: Tom Kenny (English)
Rattletrap was among the crowd welcoming home Sentinel "Magnus" and cheering on the capture of several Decepticon prisoners. Decepticon Air
 Plot details for This Is Why I Hate Machines follow. |
Rattletrap apparently gave info on Omega Supreme's activation codes to Shockwave. He was later interrogated by Ratchet and Captain Fanzone, who threatened to slime him if he didn't give them access to a high-security infirmary on Cybertron. This threat proved effective, but the access key card Rattletrap provided turned out not to work. Ultimately it didn't matter, as Jazz had been tailing them the whole time, and let them in. This Is Why I Hate Machines
Notes
- Rattletrap is an homage to Rattrap from Beast Wars, specifically his "Dawn of Future's Past" Cybertronian form. However, he's much more willing to work with the enemy than the original was...well, most of the time.
- Rattletrap's name comes off as a portemanteau of both his American name and his Japanese name (Rattle), but as "rattletrap" is actually a word, that's probably more of a coincidence than anything intentional.
- Rattletrap's face was given to Transformers fan Peaugh in the form of a Twitter avatar as a gift from Derrick Wyatt. Little did he know it was a spoiler in disguise!
- Rattletrap's voice owes a little more to Lou Costello than usual.
