Armada
Voice actor: Alvin Sanders (US) ?? (Japan)
Demolishor served as Megatron's right-hand military expert until the arrival of Thrust. He was often dense and simple-minded, but very devoted to his cause. Perhaps the most thoughtful action of Demolishor in this time was to tear through a door Megatron had sealed in order to stop Megatron from destroying Starscream, who Demolishor valued as a Decepticon ally. Demolishor was seriously damaged by Nemesis Prime, only to be reformatted into a red/white color scheme (as a homage to his Japanese namesake, Ironhide). He would go on to serve in the United Armada against Unicron.
Energon
Voice actor: Alvin Sanders (US) ?? (Japan)
After the end to the great war, Demolishor was assigned as gate security to Ocean City on Earth. He often found himself at odds with the peaceful humans and Autobots. Demolishor was a being built for war and strategy, and felt heavily misunderstood by all around him.
Demolishor had a specific relationship with Ironhide during this period, who didn't trust him for being a Decepticon. Demolishor considered Ironhide a greenhorn soldier and ridiculed him for it.
During Megatron's return, Demolishor was granted that new life of battle he desired. Due to the time spent on earth in peace, Demolishor had secretly developed a kinship with his new friends on earth that would cause problems between he and the returning Megatron. Demolishor would live in confusion and shame until his death, a death he chose as proof of his cause and purpose.
The death would come shortly after the launch of the Miranda II. Dr. Jones had fitted it with a portable Energon Field that could be activated at any time. During a Decepticon assault, one involving Demolishor, it was activated, nearly frying Megatron in the process. Demolishor pushed his leader out of harm's way, only to be blown apart by the Energon Ballistics wave instead.
Megatron was hit hard by Demolishor's sacrifice. He immediatley retreated from battle, taking the damaged spark with him. The spark was fitted into a new body, that of a green drump truck. Due to the damage to his spark, this reborn Demolishor exhibited ape-like traits and was easily excited. Demolishor latched onto Snow Cat as a partner-in-crime due to the common level of intelligence they now shared.
Cybertron
(non-show appearance) Demolishor made his return in the Cybertron toy series, sportion a recolor of his Armada mold that combined his Energon and original Armada color schemes. In bio, Demolishor is said to have been left behind on Cybertron during the evacuation, but has kept himself busy by fighting off the Scrapmetal Terrorcon hoard. Demolishor has heard rumors that Megatron has once again returned from the dead, but is qouted as hoping it is not true, as he enjoys not being pushed around by his commander.
