Description:

Along with Shrapnel and Kickback, Bombshell is an Insecticon. He enjoys developing and experimenting with new technologies to enhance or upgrade the other Decepticons’ mental and physical abilities, although he seldom adopts any upgrades or enhancements for his own use, as he derives more satisfaction from helping out his fellow Decepticons whenever they ask for his expertise and assistance. Bombshell is very good at what he does. He is highly intelligent, is meticulous and takes pride in his work, ensuring that even the smallest detail has been taken care of. He often works with the Constructicons on various scientific projects.

Back Story:

Bombshell and the Insecticons joined the Decepticons primarily to get away from the tyranny of Autobot rule in Iacon, where they were assigned the task of recycling the Autobots’ decommissioned war ships at the dock yards. The Insecticons’ individual abilities, but particularly their shared ability to process organic materials into a source of refined fuel or other useful material, meant that they were valuable to the Autobots, who regarded them as their property and forced them to do work. However, Bombshell left Iacon soon after with his fellow Insecticons to join the new faction of former Destrons. The Insecticons’ first contribution as Decepticons occurred when, along with Shockwave, the three of them helped seal all underground escape passages in Kolkular by converting raw material into reinforced blocks. This effectively limited Liege Maximo’s ability to retake the fortress in future.
