Crumplezone (Animated)

The name or term "Crumplezone" refers to more than one character or idea. For a list of other meanings, see Crumplezone (disambiguation).

Crumplezone is an Autobot from the Transformers Animated continuity family.

Crumplezone isn't really a bad guy—a bit dim, sure, but with strength like his he could still have done something constructive with his life if he hadn't fallen in with Ransack. As it stands the impressionable big 'bot is just going along with Ransack's petty crimes, acting as muscle for his little friend.

He transforms into some sort of three-wheeled Cybertronian race car with turbo boosters.

Fiction

Animated

Crumplezone and Ransack were chased by the Transtech cop Cheetor, who sought to arrest the two for "moving violations". The two tried to flee, but Cheetor proved a persistent pursuer, and Crumplezone wound up rocketing off the top of a ramp at such speed that he lost control and landed on top on Ransack, his impact leaving a massive crater. Once Cheetor caught up with the duo and proclaimed their arrest, Crumple and Ransack only had one question: "What did we do?"

Thanks to his needless chase of innocent Transformers and other impulsive actions, Cheetor was demoted to Iacon Central. Moving Violations

Notes

• Crumplezone is, of course, based on Cybertron Crumplezone, specifically his "Dark Crumplezone" redeco.
