Aftershock is a Mini-Con from the Armada portion of the Unicron Trilogy continuity family.

Red Bull gives you wings!

Aftershock is one of many power-enhancing Mini-Cons scattered across Earth, and a member of the Green Mini-Con Team. When Powerlinxed to a larger Transformer, Aftershock transforms into a heavy cannon that can be charged up to increase the power of its blasts.

Though he may have been different once, the war has turned Aftershock into a sociopathic misanthrope, filled with scorn for both Autobots and Decepticons alike. He'll agree to Powerlinx with anyone so long as it means a high body count; of course, he's really just killing time until one side finally claims victory. Then he'll only have half as many bulks to destroy.

Games

Transformers Playstation 2 video game

Aftershock was discovered onboard Starscream's spaceship when the Decepticon crashed it into the mountainside in an attempt to destroy the Autobots. Following the defeat of Megatron, he and the other Mini-Cons returned to Cybertron and helped form the Matrix Cannon, Nemesis Shield and Vanguard Booster, giving the Autobots the power needed to destroy Unicron.

Notes

• Aftershock uses the same base model as Airburst, Claymore, Slapshot and Watchdog.

• The launch party for the Armada game had a Mini-Con Madness drink menu. An "Aftershock" was a Red Bull & Vodka.

• He is probably the most powerful blaster in the game.
