Clench (G1)

This article is about the Generation 2 Decepticon. For the Armada Mini-Con, see Clench (Armada).

Clench is a Decepticon from the Generation 2 portion of the Generation 1 continuity family. He is also known as Colossus.

Utterly devoted to destroying the Autobots, Clench is fueled by anger, hatred and malevolence. He wades into battle blasting, smashing and running over anything in his path with no mercy, then shooting anything else with heavy firepower.

So naturally, he's a registered driver in Texas.

Fiction

Marvel UK Generation 2 comic

Clench is part of the Decepticon force led by Bludgeon, sent to Earth to smash stuff up and lure out Optimus Prime. Mostly he just drove over some parked cars.

Toys

Generation 1 & 2

• Clench (Obliterator, 1993)

Clench transforms into the front half of a long-nosed truck cab. The back half of his vehicle form; the truck bed and container, turns into a large double-barreled missile launching artillery platform that uses “gravity feed” to load a new pair of missiles for rapid firing. In truck mode, the support strut for the artillery cannon becomes a rear-mounted extending gripper-claw.

He was first released as part of the “transitional” period of Transformers in the European market, bearing the new Generation 2 Decepticon sigil. Later on, he was re-released in Generation 2 proper under the name Colossus.

Trivia

• No, really, his toy's license plate says "Texas".
