Technobot (SG)

This article is about the evil Autobot subgroup. For the original heroic Autobot subgroup, see Technobot (G1).

The Technobots are an evil Autobot subgroup from the Shattered Glass continuity family.

The Technobots are a team of genius-level Autobots hampered by severe neuroses.

They originally were a team of brilliantly capable scientists who combined into the equally cruelly super-intelligent Computron, until a failed attempt at imbuing normal intelligence into Grimlock corrupted their processors. Now they can no longer suppress their personality flaws, nor their addiction to combining into the now brutish and mentally deficient Computron. Optimus Prime is all too willing to perpetuate and take advantage of this situation, though Alpha Trion eventually swayed them to his side so he could do the same.

The Technobots consist of:

• The socially anxious tactical expert Scattorshot (leader)
• The calm, obsessive-compulsive electronics genius Strafe
• The sociopathic quantum physicist Lightspeed
• The cheerful eager-to-please mathematician Afterburner
• The impulsive and hyper mechanical engineer Nosecone
