Macerator (ROTF)
- Macerator is a Decepticon from the 2007 movie franchise in the live-action film continuity family.
Macerator is new to Earth. His robot form is squat and powerful, with one arm ending in circular blades instead of fingers. He finds it rather hard to credit Starscream's assertion that humans are an intelligent species, let alone that they could manage to create weapons that pose a threat to a Decepticon. Practical and gruff, he berates Dropkick for being an aesthete, praising his own choice of industrial garbage shredder truck alternate mode as being more functional and useful. Dropkick, in return, dismisses Macerator as "Primitive." Starscream considers them both hotheads.
