Krunk
- Krunk is a Nebulan in the Generation 1 continuity family.
Krunk is Zarak's nasty, brutish bodyguard. He takes orders from Zarak without question, no matter how illegal or rotten they are.
As Snapdragon's Headmaster, he enhances the Decepticon's thuggish personality rather nicely. Two peas in a pod, really.
Fiction
Marvel Comics continuity
Krunk was instrumental in fomenting distrust against the Autobots when they arrived on Nebulos. Acting on Lord Zarak's instructions, he fired a magnetic ray at Blurr's arm when the Autobot arrived as the emissary of Fortress Maximus at the Plaza in Koraja, causing Blurr's arm to strike the model of Nebulos which formed the centrepiece of a fountain in the plaza. The model of Nebulos struck the ground and caused a mass panic (being the famous "Bonk" incident) and forced Blurr to flee Koraja.
Later, Krunk put on a big set of headphones and got in touch with Cybertron, the homeworld of the Transformers.

Generation 1
- Snapdragon and Krunk (Headmaster Horrorcon, 1987)
- Like his partner, Krunk is a triple changer, transforming from an armored humanoid that fits in Snapdragon's jet-mode cockpit into the Decepticon's robot mode head, plus has a third configuration as a dragon-mode head as well. Krunk features a transformation unlike any other Headmaster partner, his connector plug isn't his head but located near his hips. This allows his jointed hips and legs to serve as a functional jaw for Snapdragon's dragon-mode head, so he gets to see everything Snapdragon eats in that mode. Yummy.
- Though he only came with his partner, in head mode, Krunk is compatible with any other Headmaster body. On the larger Headmasters, he gives three of Snapdragon's Tech Spec stats in their display window, but the smaller ones still display their normal heads' stats due to their construction.
