Grinder

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

Grinder is a Decepticon from the Transformers Animated continuity family.

Grinder looks similar to Blackout and holds the same rank of "Airborne Soldier", but doesn't seem to share all of his overpowering attributes. He works particularly well with Oil Slick.

Transformers Cards

• Grinder
  • Card number: D-032

Part of the Transformers Cards series used in the Transformers Animated: The Chase and Transformers Animated: The Shooting arcade card-reading games, Grinder is rendered as a light-gray-and-aqua version of Blackout. He was first available in Version 3.0 of The Shooting, but was given new cards for both games in Version 4.0. The cards were available in packs of 5.

Notes

• Grinder is obviously a homage to Revenge of the Fallen Grindor, although the Romanization on the card uses an alternate spelling.
• The web site for the Transformers Cards series lists Oil Slick as an optimal partner-character for the 2-player Shooting game. However, the "optimal partner" data was dropped in the Version 4.0 listings. It is unknown if those were merely suggestions, or if they gave actual point boosts.
