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.

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. Ask Vector Prime, 2015/06/17

Used for reformatting
Gong and Sideways combined two universes, creating a world where the Renegades were at war with the heroic Autobots. Under Cy-Kill's command, Crasher and several other Renegades stormed an Autobot shuttle and Crasher took an injured Ironhide prisoner. Reality changed again–in this new timeline, she served under Megatron. In the ensuing battle for Guardian City, she was one of the many Decepticons and Renegades fatally wounded in the fight, and became one of the many casualties jettisoned off Astrotrain. When Megatron bargained with Unicron, he reformatted her into Fracture. Echoes and Fragments
Renegade Rhetoric
Crasher was one of Cy-Kill's most loyal lieutenants, and participated in nearly every one of his schemes. Notably, she refused to play Ruth in the Pirates of Penzance play, raced in the Alienapolis Five Million, Renegade Rhetoric (1), 2015/10/15 flirted with the amnesiac Leader-1, and found herself in a future where the Renegades had seemingly made peace with the Guardians. Renegade Rhetoric (2)
Later, she and Cop-Tur hacked a broadcast of Ask Vector Prime to broadcast information about the Convoy to Axiom Nexus. Ask Vector Prime, 2016/01/16
Toys
Transformers (2007)
- Decepticon Fracture (Deluxe Class, 2008)
- Accessories: "Negative-energy blaster"
- A Walmart exclusive redeco of Classics Mirage, Transformers Fracture transforms into a closed-canopy Formula racer concept car. The front aerofoil detaches to become a (non-firing) handheld weapon. The original light-piping features of the mold have been disabled by the paint applications on the figure's eyes.
- She is extensively painted to resemble the GoBots character Crasher, right down to the pink face and black "domino mask" she sported in the GoBots cartoon. The tampographed Decepticon insignia on the figure features the original design, rather than the slightly streamlined look of the movie faction insignia, owing to the original intent to have her be a Classics version of Crasher.
- This mold was also used to make the 2008 Universe version of Drag Strip.
- Anyone looking to buy this figure on the aftermarket be warned, there is a very convincing-looking counterfeit knockoff that's been making the rounds since at least 2010.

Notes
- Crasher originates from GoBots, which was later "absorbed" into Transformers lore.
