Fiction
IDW Aligned comics
Missing an arm, Scrounge went before Iacon's acting commander Snarl to present his side of an incident involving a gasket that may or may not have been several microns different from an ordinary one. His testimony was interrupted first by Snarl's impatience and then by a cataclysmic planetwide restructuring event. Like many of the other damaged Cybertronian survivors, he was apparently made whole again by the planet's reformatting...which did nothing to prevent his destruction under a pile of rubble. Beast Hunters #5
Transformers: The Ultimate Pop-Up Universe
Pursuing the AllSpark after it had been launched into space, Scrounge was one of the many Autobots that found his way to Earth. There, he participated in a great battle within a human settlement against the Decepticons. The Ultimate Pop-Up Universe
Notes
- Scrounge's missing arm is, of course, a reference to his Generation 1 predecessor's "special arm" and its destruction at the hand of Straxus.
- Scrounge has an Autobot symbol, which is extremely uncharacteristic of a character design new to the Beast Hunters comic.
- The Transformers: The Ultimate Pop-Up Universe design (top) takes influences from the Animated Scrounge model in addition to the original Scrounge.
- A Transformers Universe model was created for Scrounge (right)[1] by Jay Howse. It isn't known to have been used in the game before it was shut down.
