| The name or term "Wrecker" refers to more than one character or idea. For a list of other meanings, see Wrecker (disambiguation). |
- Wreckers: Declassified is a collection of datalogs from the IDW portion of the Generation 1 continuity family.
Wreckers: Declassified is a collection of 332 historical datalogs put together by "Fisitron" (AKA Ironfist), unauthorized chronicler of the Wreckers. After bombarding Autobot High Command with data access requests, Fisitron was able to include mission reports, psych profiles, and more in Declassified. Last Stand of the Wreckers issue 1
Because of Fisitron's idolisation of the Wreckers, his tendency to dramatise, and the sanitised nature of the official material (the information about Pova is a complete lie), the datalogs serve as unwitting propaganda for the Wreckers. As a result, the Wreckers become symbols for the other Autobots to believe in and not the line-crossing thugs with a death wish that they so often are. Last Stand of the Wreckers issue 5
Upon Fisitron's death, the Declassifieds were re-released, alongside other material, in the posthumous The Complete Works of Fisitron. A heartfelt (and that term is used very loosely) foreword from Prowl preceded the main text. Zero Point

- Fisitron's autobiography
Notes
- Certain phrases in Wreckers: Declassified are repeated often enough that his fans have coined a term for them: Fisitronisms.
- "The Wreckers' Lightning Strike", "Wreckers at the Pole" and "The Wreckers' Air Attack" reference the Ladybird Books titles Autobots' Lightning Strike, Decepticons at the Pole and Galvatron's Air Attack.
- Datalog 151 refers to the Marvel UK issue number in which Death's Head leaves the Transformers universe. 113, the other number used, is the issue in which Death's Head first appears, but since 113 is a number repeated frequently in Last Stand of the Wreckers material, it's possible this is unrelated.
- 332 is, of course, the number of issues of the Marvel UK comic.
- Roadbuster wonders if he's really as one-dimensionally gung-ho as he seems in the datalogs.
