Steeljaw's Pack
- Steeljaw's Pack is a Decepticon subgroup from the Robots in Disguise portion of the Aligned continuity family..
Stranded on Earth after the crash of the Alchemor, the cunning and ruthless Steeljaw assembled Steeljaw's Pack. With the Decepticon movement in shambles following the restoration of Cybertron and the surrender of Megatron, Steeljaw sees the gang as the first step towards assembling a new army: one that will turn Earth into a Decepticon utopia under his benevolent leadership. Hand-picked from the prisoner manifest of the wrecked prison ship, gang members tend to be tough, nasty and violent - a dark mirror of Bumblebee's own Bee Team. Members can be easily identified by their trademark slashed-out Decepticon insignia, disabling the tracking devices that would otherwise allow the Autobots to find them.
But unfortunately for Steeljaw, his underlings don't share the same lofty ambitions as he does. Many of them are destructive, short-sighted, or prone to lashing out, forcing Steeljaw to play mediator, while others are simply too cowardly to hold up in a prolonged fight. And if things do go catastrophically wrong, then Steeljaw has no qualms about cutting his losses, abandoning his former teammates to the Autobots while he makes his escape.

Fiction
Robots in Disguise cartoon
Steeljaw started up his pack when he ambushed the wayward Thunderhoof, slashed his Decepticon insignia, and invited him to the group. Well, every group has their humble beginnings, right? As the Kospego Commands! At some point, the two inducted the cyber-tick Minitron into their ranks and began using Crown River Dam as a temporary base of operations. Steeljaw had Minitron hijack the Dinobot Grimlock in an attempt to increase their ranks by stealing stasis pods containing Decepticons captured by Bumblebee's team and releasing them. Minitron succeeded in getting Underbite for Steeljaw who was promptly added to the team, but before more Decepticons could be liberated Bumblebee's team intervened, leading Steeljaw with Underbite to escape and abandon Minitron.
