"We take. We don't bother.

They say that one man's trash is another man's treasure, but if the "Scavengers" come calling then they'll probably take your treasure and trash you. This scuzzy Decepticon crew makes a living stealing—ahem, salvaging the Autobot relics and technology left over from the Great War, and to them Earth is a treasure trove just waiting to be exploited. Under Clawtrap's tight-fisted leadership, there's no trick too dirty or move too underhanded when it comes to defending their findings from their foes.

Recently, they've struck up a partnership with a group of strange "Weaponizer" Mini-Cons, although the slightly more altruistic Mini-Cons view this as a partnership of convenience, not particularly happy about working with a gang of violent Decepticons.

The Scavengers include:

• Clawtrap (leader)
• Paralon
• Thermidor
• Scatterspike
