The name or term "Crasher" refers to more than one character or idea. For a list of other meanings, see Crasher (disambiguation).
Crasher is a Renegade from the GoBots continuity family.

Crasher is an evil Renegade. She transforms into a Porsche 959. She is enthusiastic and loves to destroy Guardians. Cy-Kill considers her obsession with Turbo borderline unhealthy.

Pretty much all you need to know about GoBots in one image.

Fiction

Ask Vector Prime

In Gargent 087.0 Kappa, Crasher was one of Cy-Kill's elite lieutenants. When six strange visitors were detected fighting Guardians, Cy-Kill, assuming the Guardians' enemies to be allies of his, dispatched Cop-Tur, Crasher, Fitor, Tank, and Geeper-Creeper to assist the strangers. The Renegades drove off the Guardians and brought the Autobots back to the Rogue Star, but the Autobots turned on the Renegades after discovering the Renegades' malicious nature. Ask Vector Prime

Vector Prime believed that the existence of the Decepticon Fracture across multiple Tyran realities was the result of (a) Gargent Crasher dimension-hopping to Tyran and subsequently being duplicated across the cluster.

When Cy-Kill took over the Ask Vector Prime column for Axiom Nexus News, he noted that Crasher had retained her Martha Washington costume, should the Renegades ever need to take part in another Revolutionary War-themed scheme. Truly the Renegades are prepared for any eventuality.

At one point, Crasher was kidnapped by Bad Boy at the behest of the traitor Zero and used as bait to draw Cy-Kill to a booby-trapped Dendron Beta. He was able to rescue her and avoid the trap.

Cy-Kill, Crasher, and Cop-Tur boarded Leader-1's Command Center after he and his team had been lured away. They defeated Scratch and Night Ranger and made off with a prototype Space Hawk. Later, in the same campaign, she was part of a Renegade force that met a Guardian diversionary strike. She engaged with Turbo and they "danced their usual dance."

Crasher participated in the Alienapolis Five Million, a race for control of an advanced alien civilization obsessed with racing. The Renegades were caught cheating and disqualified from the race. She persisted anyway, only to lose to Turbo.

She was one of several GoBots abducted by the ancient supercomputer Guerr-O-Vac to participate in ritual combat in the Arena of Strife. She and the other Renegades eventually teamed up with the Guardians, and she blew the computer to bits with her seismic stomp.

Later, she grew weary of Scooter constantly foiling their plans and set a trap for him. This backfired when lightning struck the brainstomer being used to interrogate him and swapped his consciousness with Cy-Kill's.

Crasher mocked the human Presidential debates, at least until they gave Cy-Kill an idea for global domination. When his plan to run for President somehow inexplicably failed, she engaged in battle with the Guardians but was driven off.

She absolutely refused to play Ruth in the Renegade's Pirates of Penzance. Psycho filled in.

Crasher helped recruit Vain Train and Decker Decker to the Renegade cause after Cy-Kill used his mind control mojo on their fellow captured Guardians to exacerbate existing tensions between them.

Fitor, Chaos, and Crasher returned from a mission only to find Cy-Kill and Cop-Tur imprisoned by Creepy and Bladez. They swiftly dealt with the intruders and freed their leader.

Crasher was one of several Renegades to infiltrate SciFi Con in costume. She chose to go as Lara Croft.

After a failed strike on Gobotron's fortress moon, Crasher's grousing about being outgunned by the Guardians gave Cy-Kill a new idea for a scheme. He had Dr. Go create new semi-sentient transforming weapons, the RoGuns. She was paired with Pistol, who fired explosive shells. Renegade Rhetoric

Notes

"Your franchise is better than ours? You must have had so many female toys in the 80s."
  • Crasher originates from Challenge of the GoBots, which was later "absorbed" into Transformer lore.
