Scavengers (G1)

The name or term "Scavenger" refers to more than one character or idea. For a list of other meanings, see Scavenger (disambiguation).

Imagine if you will, the cream of the Decepticon crop. The Scavengers are not those Decepticons — according to Tarn's analysis of Banzai-Tron's files, they are in fact the six worst Decepticons in history.

Still, they've survived when others like the Constructicons have all died. That's got to count for something.

The individual members of the team are:

• Krok, a leader who'll never find his squad
• Crankcase, who's missing a big chunk of his head
• Flywheels, who's found Primus and can't tell a lie without transforming
• Misfire, who got his name from an incident involving a "misunderstanding and a dozen dead Decepticons"
• Spinister, an idiot savant with an itchy trigger finger
• Fulcrum, a convicted coward who turns into a bomb

They travel the galaxy in the Weak Anthropic Principle.
