Shortround (Cybertron)
Shortround is a Decepticon character in the Cybertron portion of the Unicron Trilogy continuity.
Shortround's fellow soldiers see him as a nuisance, especially fellow naval unit Thunderblast, the object of his fumbling affections. Nerdy and destructive, Shortround erupts into panic at the sight of Autobots which often results into chaotic displays of superheated plasma being fired everywhere which, ultimately, allow his companions to escape.
Still, his incredible speed over the water (up to 350 MPH) makes him well-suited as a supply runner and messenger, keeping him (generally) safe among the Decepticon ranks.

Cybertron
Shortround's mold is exclusive to the Hasbro Cybertron line, transforming into a hovercraft vehicle. Inserting a Cyber Planet Key into his key jack swings a pair of (non-firing) torpedo racks up into firing position.
He comes with a silver-bordered Earth-style Cyber Planet Key.
