Description:

As one of the “Cassetticons” in Soundwave’s care, Rumble is smaller than the average Transformer but does not let others intimidate him because of his size – in fact, he uses it to his advantage. As a saboteur, he is particularly adept at infiltrating enemy territory and destroying it from the inside – by the time they have gotten wind of what’s happening, Rumble is long gone. He is often partnered with one or more of his fellow Cassetticons on missions. While others often accuse him of being nothing more than a tough guy with a mean temper, his fellow Decepticons know him better than that: put simply, he is very loyal and does not tolerate anyone who dares antagonize him or his friends.

Back Story:

Rumble’s earliest experiences of war taught him that the only ones he could trust were those who had stuck by him through the worst of times, and not just the best of times. For Rumble, this included Frenzy, Soundwave, and his fellow Cassetticons, though his small circle of friends has since expanded to include the inner circle of Decepticons under Megatron’s leadership, who he now considers to be family.
