Long ago, Ransack attacked a young Slipstream in Serenity Yard, stealing from him a ball bearing. The Tragedy of Slipstream
Ransack was freed from his stasis pod by Airazor and Divebomb. He helped his cellmate podmate knock out Fracture before both of them rolled away, giggling maniacally all the while. Knock Knock Bumblebee and his team soon thereafter detected Backtrack and Ransack's signals. The Power of Dibs
Backtrack and Ransack resisted further attempts on Fracture's part to recruit them, knocking the Decepticon into unconsciousness before provoking Airazor and Divebomb into chasing them. Back and Forth Their pursuers were intercepted by the Autobot Mini-Cons Jetstorm and Slipstream, who began to squabble with their Decepticon counterparts over which had the best claim to the Cyclones. Ransack and Backtrack quickly lost interest, becoming mesmerized by some nearby rocks. But when Slipstream was knocked into a rock mound they had built, the Cyclones turned their firepower on all four of the other Mini-Cons, forcing them to take cover. A Level Playing Field When the aligned Mini-Cons emerged from their hiding place, they managed to work together long enough to defeat both Backtrack and Ransack. The Cyclones were then taken back to the Autobot base to be put in stasis lock. Two Plus Two Equals More

Freed from their stasis pods by a fight with Overload, Ransack and Backtrack spied on the rest of the battle. They tailed the Decepticon who was heading for Crown City, and teamed up with him. Overloaded, Part 1 The pair hung out with Overload until Bumblebee convinced them that they had nothing in common with the Decepticon, and they happily started hitting him with pots and pans. Bumblebee was later able to lead them back to the scrapyard. Overloaded, Part 2
