- Underbite is a Decepticon from the 2015 Robots in Disguise franchise portion of the Aligned continuity family.
Underbite is a huge bestial Decepticon. He's a Chompazoid, able to power himself up by ingesting matter, and claims to have done so by eating an entire Cybertronian city. In fact he'll loudly tell anyone who'll listen about it, though he's often disappointed by the fact he's not as notorious as he wishes. Like most Decepticons, he's quick-tempered, but he's also easily distracted by the lure of more food, which he needs to fuel his body-building efforts. He's named his right arm "Thundercruncher" and his left "Boltsmasher".
Fiction
2015 Robots in Disguise cartoon
- Voice actor: Liam O'Brien (English)
 Plot details for Pilot (Part 1) follow. |
Underbite was aboard the prison ship Alchemor when it crashed on Earth, and roamed the area around the crash site after being freed from his stasis cell by the impact. He soon got into a rumble with Bumblebee's team, but after spying a nearby scrapyard through the trees, he headed off to devour that instead. Pilot (Part 1)
Plot details for Pilot (Part 2) follow. |
Despite tussling with Grimlock, Underbite began chowing down on the contents of the scrapyard, only to spot a bigger prize — nearby Crown City. Unfortunately the organic matter he encountered along the way was unsuitable for his consumption, and he slowly weakened. The Autobots managed to lure him to the edge of a quarry, and though he managed to shake them off, he was tossed in by Optimus Prime himself. The Autobots later placed Underbite back in a stasis cell. Pilot (Part 2)
Toys
Robots in Disguise (2015)
- Underbite (One Step Changers, 2015)
- Part of the first wave of Robots in Disguise One Step Changers, Underbite changes from a Cybertronian four-wheeled tank-like car-thing into a robotic lizard-dog thing. His spring-loaded transformation to each mode is triggered by pressing his back legs together. The back of his beast-head has a spring-loaded lever that activates his bitey-jaw gimmick.
- He is adorable.
- Like all Robots in Disguise toys, he has a bordered insignia that can be scanned by the Robots in Disguise game app to temporarily unlock the One Step Changer version of him as a playable character, if the player has not permanently unlocked them yet. His badge is on the top of his head/vehicle roof. However, it can't be scanned while he's still in-package, as it's behind the front-bubble instructions.
- Caution should be used with his transformation, as many early samples would lose the ability to lock into robo-beast mode with rigorous/repeated squeezing of the haunches (vehicle is the "default" state, beast mode relies on a tensed spring to stay locked in).
Merchandise
Tiny Titans
- Underbite (Tiny Titans, 2015)
- Series: 1
- Number: 7/12
- Part of the initial assortment of Tiny Titans, this super-adorable version of Underbite is a very small, soft-plastic figure of Underbite in his beast mode. Sold in a blindpacked baggie, he comes with a collectible card with a scan-badge, which unlocks a random amount of Energon "currency" and a randomized bonus power-up item.
