Fiction

During the exile from Cybertron of the Autobots aboard the Ark and the Decepticons aboard the Nemesis, the two ships had happened upon the planet Aquatron, on which many of the Autobots and Decepticon had been captured and taken into custody by the planet's Sharkticon inhabitants and their masters the Quintessons.

Tantrum, along with the others, cheered in the excitement of rescuing their glorious leader. Retribution
Titan Magazine Prime Comics
Fed up of Megatron having the mighty Predaking, Starscream decided to create his own Predacon beast. 'Borrowing' Shockwave's lab, he cloned a new Transformer from fossil remains and with his own CNA to plug the gap.
Starscream then expected this new life with his CNA to do what it was told. When the beast wouldn't listen to him, Starscream struck him. The beast grew furious, transformed to bull mode, and chased Starscream around the ship with intent to kill! (That's how he was named Tantrum!) Vehicons and Insecticons were ripped to pieces when they got in his way but the violence did serve to calm Tantrum down.
Back in robot mode, Tantrum announced he was a superior Transformer to everyone on board and he planned to kill the inferior Starscream. The Decepticon tried to talk him down, advocating for a more subtle way to conquest. Tantrum dismissed that, stating he was learning from Starscream's mistake and would show him how to take power!
So Starscream blew him up with a direct missile strike.
He later picked up Tantrum's remains and thought about having another crack at creating a Predacon... Starscream's Beast
Notes
- Tantrum is surprisingly easy to kill: two missiles blow him to pieces! He seems unaware this will happen, laughing as they come towards him.
- His beast mode shoots fire from its nose.
- Comic Tanturm is a rarity in being a Predacon whose Beast Mode isn't based on a draconian, reptilian, or mythological creature, but instead a bovine.
