Lazerback (Prime)

DO NOT PET THE WILDLIFE.

Lazerback is a Predacon from the Aligned continuity family.

"Fractious" is a good word to describe Lazerback. He may be a Predacon by design, but he'll die before he prostrates himself at the feet of Predaking, to say nothing of the die-cast dictator who thinks he's giving the orders now. Lazerback's only interested in two things: destroying Autobots and ignoring anyone who tells him otherwise.

Fiction

Tales of the Beast Hunters

Lazerback was cloned by Shockwave using a Hyperevolution Chamber. Whilst helpless in the Chamber, the Predacon overheard the Decepticon scientist, and decided to destroy Megatron and Predaking, so as to be free to spread chaos of his own accord. Once freed from the chamber, he stole a tracking device and set off to find the two tyrants.Tales of the Beast Hunters Chapter 3

Toys

Beast Hunters

• Lazerback (Deluxe, 2013)
  • Series/number: 2/003
  • Accessories: Toxic Strike Blaster, missile, tail/whip

Part of the first wave of Prime: Beast Hunters Deluxe Class toys, Lazerback transforms into a dragon with an opening jaw. His tail detaches to become a whip that is held by his hands via 5mm post. His dragon back hinges over his head in robot mode to become the "Toxic Strike Blaster", a spring-loaded missile launcher which fires a single, double-pronged missile. (His packaging call-outs erroneously mention that he has two missiles.) The launcher itself is attached to a peg-hole on his back, and can be detached for use as a hand-held weapon.

Notes

• Though the New York Comic Con 2012 presentation slide that introduced Lazerback spelled his name with a Z, the later slide of his packaging spelled his name with an S. However, an in package image of Lazerback would show that his name does, in fact, pozzezz possess a z instead of an s.
