Fixit (RID)

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

Wheels for feet, no weapons... does this mean that he'll team up with Megatron?

Fixit is an Autobot from the Robots in Disguise portion of the Aligned continuity family.

Fixit is a hyperactive Mini-Con who oversaw a prison ship that crashed on Earth, so now he's advising Bumblebee on recapturing all the Decepticons set loose, while also designing various devices to help recapture them. He's developed a verbal tic as a result of the crash, which causes him to occasionally finish off his sentences with a word that rhymes with the intended word, rather than the correct one. Due to Fixit's small size, he cannot transform into earth vehicles like the rest of his Autobot comrades, and, instead, transforms into a multitude of different mechanical tools to aid him in his job as the team's resident mechanic.

Fixit was assigned to the maximum-security prison ship Alchemor, which contained some of Cybertron's most dangerous Decepticon war criminals. Unfortunately, the ship crashed on Earth under mysterious circumstances. The crash totaled the ship, stranded Fixit, and deactivated most of the stasis cells intended to keep its inmates under control. Fixit struggled to reactivate the ship while trying to reestablish contact with Cybertron. He was eventually rescued by Bumblebee and Strongarm,, who had arrived on the planet in response to a vision from Optimus Prime. The duo grilled Fixit about the nature of the Alchemor's cargo, and Strongarm was dismayed to learn that the crash had inadvertently unleashed hundreds of rogue Decepticons on the unsuspecting planet. Fixit attempted to cheer them up by presenting the lone intact stasis cell, which was still partially operational. The Alchemor's tracking system eventually rebooted, and picked up a Cybertronian life signal out in the wilderness, believing it to be one of the many fugitives on the lam. Bumblebee reassured the Mini-Con by telling him that the Cybertronian in question was most likely Sideswipe, then ordered him to continue repairs on the ship while he and Strongarm went to investigate, although Fixit lamented that he hadn't learned their favorite colors yet.

Eventually, Bumblebee and Strongarm encountered Underbite and the human Russell Clay, and led the fugitive back to Fixit's work area. Bumblebee ordered Fixit to shield the human while the larger Autobots tangled with the Decepticon. As it turned out, the partially-functioning stasis cell contained Grimlock, who overheard the commotion and was eager to join the fight... until Fixit deployed a taser to force the Dinobot back into his cell. When Underbite withdrew from the brawl and made a beeline to Denny Clay's scrapyard, Bumblebee asked Fixit if Underbite was one of the Decepticons on board the Alchemor. Fixit called up more information about the fugitive, explaining that as a Chompazoid, Underbite drew extra power from consuming metal... meaning that if Underbite managed to reach the scrapyard, he'd become practically unstoppable.

While the others pursued Underbite, Fixit failed to make friends with Sideswipe, and continued with his repair work. He was able to get a stasis cell back online and scrounge up some capture tools which he supplied to the rest of the team. After Underbite's defeat, he and the other Autobots moved their equipment to Denny Clay's scrapyard. Pilot (Part 1)
